Chapter 270: 270

Episode 270: Shadow beast(Third Party Perspective)

 

 Humans wearing lightweight armor made of a completely different material that looks like leather on top of their tight bodysuits are running towards a certain place in the city.

 

 

 They are jumping on the roofs and moving in a way that doesn't seem human, but that's only natural since they are human beings with the aptitude for being explorers.

 

 

 In addition to being pitch black, ordinary people walking through the glimmering streets would not notice them, as they possess covert skills and are trained in assassination and espionage techniques.

 

 

"Captain, we received information that the target is staying at the Almario Hotel."

 

"Understood. Shortly, as soon as we arrive near the hotel, we will surround the hotel while paying close attention."

 

""Understood.""

 

 

 Their mission is to incapacitate the targets as much as possible and take them to their base even if they use hardline means.

 

 

 Until now, they have vaguely headed towards Las Vegas, but due to the information they received from the comms, they make subtle changes to their direction of travel and take the shortest route to the hotel where the targets are.

 

 

 It would take four hours by car from the Los Angeles area to Las Vegas, but they arrive in two hours. They are a seemingly non-existent force, and they are traveling by running, as air travel is conspicuous.

 

 

"Five kilometers to the target hotel. Check your equipment and prepare yourselves."

 

""Roger.""

 

 

 Considering the distance to the hotel, the unit commander has the members carry out a final check of their armaments. Of course, they don't overestimate themselves, and just like their usual duties, they go through a series of checks, one step at a time, closing the distance to the hotel.

 

 

"Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

 

 

 However, it happens when the distance to the hotel is less than three kilometers. He hears the scream of one of the soldiers.

 

 

"Make three-man cells and eliminate blind spots!!"

 

 

 The unit commander stops and gives instructions to the members.

 

 

 He is worried about the safety of the members who screamed, but he prioritized not reducing the force any further, so he first groups the members who are currently safe and alerts them to attacks from all directions.

 

 

"Who got hit!?"

 

"It's Twelve."

 

"How are they?"

 

"It's not life-threatening, but their leg is broken. They fell right next to me."

 

"Understood. Use an advanced potion immediately and bring them back."

 

"Yes."

 

 

 After securing visibility, he calls out to the team members to confirm their safety, judges that they will be able to return soon, and decides to give them permission to use the recovery medicine and recover immediately.

 

 

"Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

 

 

 However, even though they should have confirmed all directions, something attacks them again, and one of the members is unable to do anything and collapses on the spot.

 

 

"It's the feet!! Watch your feet!!"

 

 

 The members are wary of 360 degrees, but when they scream, they see a black shadow attacking from their feet, and the other members call for caution.

 

 

 Everyone turns their attention to their feet.

 

 

"Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

 

 

 However, the screams of the members rise again.

 

 

"This time it's a wall of a building!! It's probably the shadows!! Be careful, everyone!!"

 

 

 All the other members brace themselves without even helping the fallen member when they are warned by the member who was watching the moment they were attacked again.

 

 

 They think that if they try to help, they will be targeted next.

 

 

"No one hold back. Next time it attacks you, do it seriously!!"

 

""Roger!!""

 

 

 The captain, who thinks that it is not the time to be stingy, gives permission for full-scale battle. That decision is just too wrong.

 

 

 He should have withdrawn at that stage.

 

 

""Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?""

 

 

 Until now, only one person was attacked at a time, so they thought there was only one enemy, but this time multiple people are silently pierced by shadows and collapse on the spot.

 

 

"Damnit. How the hell did they pinpoint our position and attack!?"

 

 

 The commander is confused by the current incomprehensible situation and shouts.

 Then, several black shadows appear in front of them. Their appearance is such that the term jet-black beast fits perfectly.

 

 

"Shadow Beast ...?"

 

 

 One of the members who sees the figure mutters as soon as they see the black shadow.

 

 

"Hee. I don't know why you showed up, but it's convenient!! Everyone take it down!!"

 

""Yes.""

 

 

 To the shadow beast that suddenly appears even though it didn't show up at all a while ago, the commander finds it fortunate and begin an all-out attack.

 

 

""Magic Arrow!!""

 

 

-Doooooooooooooooooooonn

 

 

 Several members hold bows and fire arrows formed with magic power. Their attacks easily land on the shadow beasts.

 

 

 It makes a lot of noise, but it's nothing to be concerned about.

 

 

 Smoke billows up and the visibility is poor.

 

 

""Ice Rock!!""

 

 

 They start the next attack before the smoke clears.

 

 

-Doooooooooooooooooooonn

 

 

 Cubes of ice fly toward the center of the smoke and land.

 

 

""Rock Fall!!""

 

 

 On top of that, several huge rocks fall from above.

 

 

-Doooooooooooooooooooonn

 

 

"Did we do it?"(TN:Line #1 to never say.)

 

 

 As expected, it won't be safe after receiving a trio of attacks.

 

 

""Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?""

 

 

 Or so the commander mutters, but the enemy's safety is ruthlessly confirmed by the screams of the soldiers.

 

 

""Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?""

 

""Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?""

 

""Guwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?""

 

 

 The screams of the members echo one after another from everywhere, and there is silence in the area.

 

 

"Hey!! Is anyone alright!? Answer me!!"

 

 

 The captain calls out to the area, but no one answers.

 

 

" ~~ !?"

 

 

 The unit commander suddenly feels a presence and turns around.

 

 

 There is a shadow beast just one meter ahead.

 

 

"Uuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

 

 

 As if to shake off his fear, the captain raises the sword he is holding and swings it down on the shadow.

 

 

-Doooooooooooooooooooonn

 

 

"Haa ... Haa ..."

 

 

 There is a response.

 

 

" ~~ !?"

 

 

 However, after the smoke clears, there is a shadow beast standing still with a completely unchanged expression.

 

 

"M, monster ..."

 

 

 At the end of those words, the unit commander loses consciousness.
