The next day, everyone looked tense as they just waited.

"Oy, is that monster getting near?" asked a random adventurer to a Xeno.

"Yes." They show them their hands. It was shaking violently. "It’s coming."

They wait a couple of minutes before—

Thoom!!

Thoom!!

Thoom!!

The land quaked.

"Everyone!!!!!" shouted Malion at the top of her lungs. "At the ready!!!"

The most veteran of adventures readied themselves.

"This feeling!" said Finn.

"Ay! It’s the same as back then!" said Gareth.

"But this time we're playing a more active role!" said Riveria.

"Prepare for battle!!!!!!" Finn shouted.

"UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The movement in the city grew more active.

Finn jumped onto a building to send out commands.

"Everyone onto the ships!!" shouted Finn. "Mages will bombard it from afar, and Vanguards will attack from the sides!! Those who remain on the ships bombard the Behemoth with cannon fire! Ais, you will be on wind neutralization!"

Everyone quickly mobilized. The mages sailed off first, followed by the vanguard, and then everyone else.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

"Get your masks on!!" shouted Malion as she put on her mask.

Everyone puts one on as they approach the Behemoth, and purplish-black winds skim across the air.

With each grain of sand, they sail across, the winds begin to get stronger and stronger, the clouds all block the sky, and they have a massive view of a dust devil. Within the storming dust, they could see the visages of the Behemoth.

"URRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Its roar could be felt and heard from miles away.

"It saw us!!" shouted Malion. "Prepare to engage!!!!"

The winds intensified, and smaller dust devils began to come at them.

"And so it begins. Ais!!!!!" shouted Finn.

"Asterius!!" shouted Ais.

"RAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Asterius, with Ais in the flat of his axe, launches her high into the air.

"(Awaken, tempest)!!!!"

Whooooosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoooooosh!!!!!!!!

She flew high into the air and started a chant.

"(If you beheld them, your affections become tender) [Ariel]!!!!"

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A massive encasing wall of wind created a lull in the desert, revealing the monster’s form under the vicious wind and dust.

‘Those grueling lectures from Circe and Riveria and those training sessions from Cirrus to increase my magic so much.’

Bwoosh~!

"!?"

They could see the Behemoth open their mouth; a ball of purple flame began to form.

Bwoosh-Bwoosh-BWOOSH~!!

It was growing more and more.

"Everyone move!!!" Finn commanded. "It has a new move!!!"

"I got it!!" Bell shouted, jumping out in front. "Everyone move!!"

Bell held out his hand, and a large cathedral bell rang.

DONG!!!

"[Fire]!!!"

Bwoosh!

His red flame turned to orange.

DONG!!!

Bwoosh!!

Then jumping from orange to yellow-white.

DONG!!!

BWOOSH!!!

Before turning blue.

DONG!!!

BWOOSH!!!!!!

Melt~

Melt~~

Melt~~~

The stone in the area melted, and anything nearby caught on fire.

The Behemoth then roared.

"!!!!!!"

And they fired its breath attack.

BWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!!

Bell widened his stance and shouted.

"[BOLT]!!!!"

BWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!

The blue flame shot forth to clash with the dark purple flame, resulting in a lavender explosion.

BOOOOOOOOM~~~!!!

Whoosh~!!

The fire shot has been fired, and the area where the explosion took place has left only a vast field of glass.

"Fuu~" Bell breathed out. He looked at his arm to see it with third-degree burns. "Gr,"

"Bell," Haruhime said coming up to him briskly.

Bell held his hand out, and she poured a high-grade potion on it.

Tsss~

The burns were instantly healed.

"Mages!!! Shouted Riveria. "Attack!!!!!"

Haruhime stepped forward, raised her staff, and chanted.

"Kokonoe." Nine bright golden tails sprout out, large enough to shadow the buildings nearby. "Beloved snow. Beloved crimson. Beloved white light. Please let me be beside you—this love I have found at the end of two thousand nights. My name is Magic Fox. Former destroyer. My name is Ancient Song. Former dreamer. For you who beat your wings like a bird, I shall allow the nine spirits to dwell in me. Echo, song of Gold, sacred poem of Tamamo. White face, golden fur, king of nine tails. Oh, tails of the auspicious beast, consume all, grant all wishes—Grow. That power and that vessel. Breadth of wealth and breadth of wishes. Until the bell tolls, bring forth glory and illusion—Grow. Confine divine offerings within this body. This golden light bestowed from above. Into the hammer and into the ground, may it bestow good fortune upon you." She has chanted this so much that it is ingrained in her mind and her voice. It was as second nature to her as breathing, for this was her only trump card that could overturn any bad situation. "[Uchide no Kozuchi]!!!"

Flash!!!

Her tails dissipated and shot around, hitting everyone but the Xeno; they have no status.

Flash-Flash-Flash-Flash!!!

Flash-Flash-Flash-Flash!!!

Flash-Flash-Flash-Flash!!!

All the adventures were bathed in light, and in doing so, their levels jumped up, along with the strength of their magic.

BOOM!!!

BOOM!!!

BOOM!!!

Mages bombarded the Behemoth with magic, which caused the Behemoth to be temporarily halted by the attacks.

The vanguard climbed up its massive frame while the others dealt with the smaller monster it produced.

The vanguard then attacked as they climbed up.

"Raaa!!!" Ottar slashes away, steadily making his way to the Behemoth.

"Haaa!!!" shouted Allen, cutting away and tearing through the battlefield.

"Ahhh!!!" shouted Bell, blasting through to face the beats.

‘It’s so big! I find it hard to believe something this big can be killed!’ Bell thought.

 

As they attack it, the Behemoth simply stands still, taking the attacks and with a mighty roar.

"URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The fire at the end of its tail began to spread around its body.

‘Behind you!!’ said a familiar voice.

"!"

Bell turned to see the fire coming.

"Everyone jump!!!" he shouts.

They turn to look at Bell, and he points at the fire.

"!!"

They then jump off.

"URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The flame engulfed the Behemoth in an exoskeleton made of the flames.

"Well, it seems it got some new stuff from the Corrupted Flame," Malion said as she fired at the monsters.

"Everyone!!!" Finn shouted. "Do not let fear grip you now!!! Back off and let the stronger adventurers handle it!!! Deal with the smaller ones!!!"

"Yes, sir!!!!" They all shouted.

 

From up above, Ais could see the corrupted flame cover the Behemoth in an armor.

"Tch!!" The wind around her stops, and she free-falls toward the beast.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

She draws Sunset and holds it tightly.

"You won’t hide behind that armor!!! (Tempest)!!!!!"

The wind wrapped around her sword, activating it.

Shing!!!!!!!!!!!

The core of Wu shined brightly as the purple blade gained a radiant gold appearance, with purple veins running through and along the edge of the blade.

"HAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!"

WHOOSH!!!!!

With her wind, she created a space for her to pierce the monster.

"You won’t be armoring yourself!!!!"

‘An opening!!’

"!?" A voice rang in her ear, but she couldn’t lose focus now. "(Tempest-Avenger)!!! (Nizel)!!!!"

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The thick armor began to be blown away into small pieces at a time as the blade fully reached inside and the poison spread.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Carried by the black winds, Ais, with all of her strength, begins to tear up the armor and spread more of the poison.

"URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

It screamed out in pain.

"URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

It stomped on the sand like a child throwing a tantrum.

Rumble!!! Rumble!!!

Rumble!!! Rumble!!!

Rumble!!! Rumble!!!

"!?!?"

The weaker adventures realized something from its stomping: their bodies felt heavier.

"M-my body!?" said one.

"Swish!! I-I cut down in one slash!?" said another.

Thud!

"!!!"

‘I miss my mark.’ Malion shot a few more times, adjusting each time, but they all missed where she wanted. But regardless, she still killed the monsters around and understood what was happening.

"Gravity!! Oy!! Lili!!! Tell them the damn beast is using gravity magic!!!" Malion shouted towards Lili.

"!" She heard this and quickly used a magic tool to amplify her voice. "It’s gravity magic!!!!! It’s weighing you all down!!!"

Hearing this, Finn gave out an order.

"All second-class adventures go help with the mob clearing!! All first-class uses everything to kill the Behemoth quickly!!!"

"UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

As everyone charged on, a blonde-haired Renard finished her chant with nine glowing fox tails.

"-Grow!!) [Uchide no Kozuchi]!!!"

Beams of light struck the strongest of the first-class adventures. Instead of covering a wide area, she focused her magic on a select few and reapplied her magic.

"You really are something," said Beta as he looked at the Haruhime. "Come on, you fucking bastards!!! We can’t let a fucking support mage carry our asses!!!!!" he said, taking out the magic tool that allows Werewolves to use their Beastification.

The moment he gave himself the shot, everyone else used whatever they had.

Ottar’s muscles became perfect with his Beastification. Allen’s silver spear shone ever more silver. Bell’s appearance was similar to that of Nox, aside from his ruby eyes and the toll of a grand bell.

BOOOOOM!!!

They lit up the Behemoth's right side with powerful magic. Gareth’s magic was enough to break the earth beneath its front right leg, causing it to stumble a bit from all the attacks.

Foom!!

Bell, Ottar, and Asterius. The three of them run through the explosions, charging forth even through the corrupted fire. Leading them on was a voice.

‘Go!! I will not let the corrupted fire hurt you!!’

"URROOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Bell heads right towards the wound Ais gave the beast. Ottar and Asterius head left towards the beast's neck.

"Ais!!!! Get away!!!" Bell shouted. "DONG!!!" In his hands was the divine weapon, covered in particles of gold and white with a brilliant flame.

"!" She quickly used her wind to get away.

Bell plunged the sword into the wound and shouted.

"[FIREBOLT]!! [FIREBOLT]!! [FIREBOLT]!! [FIREBOLT]!! [FIREBOLT]!!"

           Back at the base of the Behemoth’s neck.

"Bull!!!" shouted Ottar as he had his divine weapon ready to swing down.

"Boar!!!" shouted Asterius with his own in a similar manner.

"ROOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!"

Ottar’s divine weapon glowed in silver, while Asterius’s glowed a thundering yellow.

"My!!!!"

"Kill!!!!"

Swish!!

 

At that moment, the combined attacks of these three brought the Behemoth fully to the ground.

RUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!

Bell’s flame surged through the monster’s weak insides, punching through it with a fiery explosion.

BOOM!!! BWOOSH!!!

BOOM!!! BWOOSH!!!

BOOM!!! BWOOSH!!!

Ottar and Asterius came down on the neck with all of their strengths, as if it were a pair of scissors.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" They shouted as they swung down.

SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!!!

THUD!!!!!

Its head fell to the earth in a thunderous drop.

 ‘Do not let the flames escape again.’ Vesta’s voice echoed within Ais.

"Hm! (Awaken, Tempest)!!!"

A massive amount of wind surrounded the area, making it a land where no wind could be made.

The weapons then drew the Corrupted flame in.

 

Moonlight Tower.

‘Thank you for the hard work.’ Said Vesta, as the remaining corrupted flames are being passively absorbed by the weapons.

Vesta turns to see Callisto going through the usual routine of going through the memories.

"A bit more quickly, our time together is shortening."

White Night glowed a bit more brightly, and Callisto—

"Hmm…mmm…." She feels her head hurt a bit more.

‘Soon you will awaken from picking up the memories your body has retained.’

 

The Raid lasted approximately 20 minutes because of the strengths of the adventures and the use of divine weapons.

Raid Results:

• Injured/Poisoned: 233
• KIA: 17
• The Behemoth being subjected.
