Humanity Return

Ch. 149 – Them and Disaster Beast

The light struck and produced an enormous golden explosion, making the Disaster Beast take a hit back and unleash its attack in the wrong direction.

A 20-meter-wide deep red ball floated up and landed on the meadow beside the volcano and-and

Booms!

No less massive explosions occurred in the distance and burned most of the grassland where it landed in an instant, leaving a giant hole without a single plant living in and around it.

“Ribbit...!”

For the first time since its appearance, the giant toad took one sideways step and moved from where it stood, facing the direction of the attack.

What did he find? A purple skull was as big as a human head was hovering onto his face at an unreasonable speed.

“Rib-?!”

Whoshis!

The skull slammed into his face fiercely and instantly enveloped the entire top of his head, which instantly stopped his face healing from the previous attack that was already nearing completion.

The toad began to shake its body extremely vigorously without successfully eliminating that purple mist, even its attempt to gather Fire Mana became much slower than before.

“Fiuh... I finally had a chance to take a breath”.

Hinata landed in front of Aura and Adeline like before but this time, she immediately fell lying on her back while turning her head towards the two girls beside her.

The Aura and Adeline who received the gaze also only showed a faint smile as they placed their sticks on the ground, while looking towards the two radiations of energy that were approaching at an extremely high speed.

Two stars are falling.

“...aaah!”

Crackle-boom up!

The golden star made it first and hit the stomach of the giant toad that was being diverted, making it lose its balance.

“...eit!

Booms!

The purple star caught up and smashed into the frog's face again, making the purple mist that was around its head instantly explode and spread throughout its body.

“Ribbit?!”

The two stars then floated out from the explosion they made and moved swiftly towards the three girls and the group of Beasts in one part of the mountain, leaving the giant toad that started to rampage and moving its body wildly.

Bwoosh's!

A strong wind struck the faces of the three girls as two star-two winged youths landed in front of them and instantly folded their wings both of them.

“Fiuh, sorry we're late!”

“Sorry..”

Leinn showed his innocent smile while scratching the back of his head with his right hand that was burning with a deep purple flame, swaying his long black hair and purple furry wings.

Roland's face that was seen behind his dragon head also looked gloomy when he realized the condition of the three of them, making the lightning that leaped from his golden wings and long tail become even more ferocious.

Yes, Leinn and Roland were the reinforcements that the three girls had been waiting for since the start of that fight.

The two of them instantly left Adamant city when they sensed what was going on in this place through their Contract, riding on their Beast. And after moving for four hours non-stop, they finally reached half the way and managed to recover their used manpower in the previous fight until it was enough to enter this form.

“Adeline”

Roland pulled out one green-colored pouch from his shirt pocket and threw it towards Adeline, considering her current form made her unable to get close to others.

The Adeline who received it instantly recognized the pouch, a pouch with material from the skin of a rare lightning-eating Beast. This pouch had immunity to the lightning element and was also extremely strong, something Adeline knew when she asked about the thing that the young man had always carried everywhere.

“Just use my healing medicine, or Leinn's if you need it”

Adeline opened a small pouch no larger than her palm and pecked at it when she saw the contents, but he immediately shook his head and pulled out a ring that was usually always on Roland's finger...

The Dimensional Ring.

“Hm..!”

Adeline immediately put her Mananya into the ring in her grasp and could feel the items inside very clearly. After trying to ignore some of the things that surprised him again, he finally found what he was looking for.

“Aha!”

Adeline swung her fists and ten bottles filled with red and blue liquid appeared in front of her, followed by a huge, very familiar bag beside her as well.

“We still have... moments before he can move back. What do we know about it?”

Leinn turned his attention from the mountain peak that had already lost the giant Disaster Beast earlier to the two girls who were gulping down a few bottles of healing liquid and the Mana regeneration enhancer.

Aura instantly sped up her drink and finished the bottle with the blue liquid in her hand before starting to explain the most important parts of the Beast's abilities.

“...and he at least has the power of Final Rank A..”.

His attack patterns, his regeneration abilities, and his identity.

Leinn turned his head towards the top of the volcano once more, while slightly wrinkling his forehead.

“Dia...just a few more steps before reaching Rank A Peak”.

“...Ah!”

Aura instantly realized one thing about the reason the Disaster Beast was here, right now. He also instantly understood the reason he was so angry when they activated Agni’s Demise this afternoon.

“We have to stop it here, now!”

The Disaster Beast failed to surpass its developmental bottleneck due to interference from them and would try again after its bully disappeared. This was not something that they could leave behind, having imagined the chaos it would create with such force.

Leinn who saw the seriousness of Aura immediately turned to look at Roland who was looking back at him, then to Hinata who had gotten up to a sitting position.

“Are you guys ready?”

“Hm”

“Of course!”

Roland nodded his head slowly and Hinata immediately jumped up. The three of them then turned their heads towards the mountain peak which began to tremble and emit a pressure that was much greater than before.

Booms!

“Ribbit.!”
