Humanity Return

Ch. 155 – Problem by Problem

“Are you alive, Roland?”

“Mostly, Leinn”

“A bright night isn't it?”

“Yup”

“Are you able to move?”

“Not yet, you?”

“But not to”

“Heeey... stop ignoring me..”.

Two young men could be seen lying next to each other on the grass field looking at the night sky that had no clouds. The two of them lay there with their bodies covered in wounds and appeared to be indifferent to one girl who was also lying not far from them, who was facing the ground.

“...aaah hungry!”

Leinn was seen trying to raise his right hand to grab the large bag lying nearby before finally giving up, seeing that only his index finger could move at this moment.

“Hah..”.

Roland was actually feeling the same way, but he was already aware of the state of his body and had already accepted reality. So he was just waiting for the help that should have found them soon.

“Leinn... Roland...”

Hinata who could not move her body had been forced to stare at the ground for the past few minutes, that coupled with her call of indifference, finally made her start crying?

“...”

“...”

But Leinn and Roland looked unmoved, as the current situation was indeed caused by the girl who did not know the limits at all. The two of them had not expected all the rest of their strength they would use to protect themselves from the attacks of their own teammates.

“Hey..”.

They already knew the waves that would result from Hinata's attack would not be small, either, but they did not expect that the girl would use all her strength which was already much different from the last time they saw her without hesitation.

So an attack powerful enough to annihilate a creature of the level above struck the Disaster Beast heavily, annihilating it.

Then followed by a wave of punches that soared into the sky, obliterating most of the volcanoes in front of them along with all the clouds in the sky.

It then produced a wave that hit the body of the girl herself and the two youths behind her, forcing the three of them to drift very far while protecting themselves from all the rock fragments and sharp winds that hit them.

“Month change is near huh?”

“Yes, do you have any plans to see it?”

“Maybe, in the usual place”

“Hey... hey..

Leinn managed to catch her big bag that coincidentally also floated in the same direction as the three of them, with the help of Roland who remembered there were some precious objects inside the bag, as well, leaving Hinata already protected from the first impact the blast wave from his own attack floated freely in the air.

Their energy also happened to run out when they managed to get out from within the wind waves dragging them, making them fall limp on the ground.

So this was the current situation, two young men who were staring at the sky and one girl who was staring at the ground, in the middle of a meadow that had absolutely no other living beings.

Leinn was seen closing his eyes and frowning with Roland who looked very disturbed as well, as they were increasingly difficult to ignore the stuffing of the girl near them.

“...what do you want to talk about” Leinn said without opening her eyes.

“Hah...” hela Roland while looking at the night sky.

They both admitted to losing as well.

“...yay! Did you see my attack? I also saw your change! You guys are so much stronger than the last time I saw you! I'm sure we'll be able to beat..”

Hinata started to vaporize everything she wanted to talk about at once, unaware of the expressions of the two young men in front of her who had already changed.

“You..”.

Leinn and Roland who looked up without being able to move their necks immediately found the girl who had been staring at the ground was able to move her neck and was talking while looking at them, the two of them also realized that the girl's face was still clean without the slightest trace of tears.

“...”

“...”

“K-why you two?!”

Leinn instantly closed his eyes and fell silent, while Roland also closed his eyes as he called out to Twig to help them faster.

“H-hey!”

Rumbles...

And of course, a giant snake could be seen moving rapidly towards them in the distance.

...

“How... whether...”.

“Isla, relax!”

A girl can be seen trying to calm a friend next to her who looks very pale, who is trying to lift herself from her seat without success.

“Hah... huh..”.

Isla seems unable to gather energy in her legs that have become weak and also failed when trying to regulate her hunting breath. This was the result of his already heightened feelings of anxiety all the way to the peak boundary, which finally exploded as news of a new Stampede Beast entered the entire Hunter Guild branch of the Fire Sect Continent.

The worst possibility that was expected to have occurred, the Stampede Beast started to run in all directions in large numbers and the first wave of the Beast batch had just been stopped, which was just now being stopped, and that was after they passed through and destroyed some villages and small towns that were blocking them.

The reserve hunters that stood guard in the Beast wave-struck cities were finally able to repel that wave. But the bad news turned out to be unfinished because even though the main Raid Party that was formed from so many Rank B Parties was trying to dispel the waves of the Beast that were running, it was, they had finally missed the second wave of Beasts by a much larger and stronger amount than before.

All Rank A Parties were also busy fighting the Disaster Beasts that had suddenly appeared and were intent on destroying the Aldebaran Trading City, where this Raid Party should have survived this Beast Stampede.

This Disaster Beast not only made the Stampede Beast disperse very early, it also kept all Rank A Parties busy fighting it.

“Ah..”

And the report that surprised Isla the most was when she realized that one of the cities that was almost destroyed in the first wave of the Beast was the city where both her parents and sister were.

A second, larger wave would flatten them all.

“Isla, awake!”

Go there yourself? Although he could magically get there, he would not be able to do anything with his minuscule strength.

Sending help? None of the Parties that had the possibility of turning things around were not already there, fighting on the front lines.

Dead ends, no way, no one can

Ding!

A clear voice suddenly sounded from the Blue Linker who was by her side, making the girl flinch in shock and instantly turn her head there. On his screen could be clearly seen the writing that was not there before, which made him open his eyes very wide.

[Rank A Urgent Mission, Cleaning Mountain Crawler from around Adamant Mine City – Complete]

[Rank A Urgent Mission, Stabilizing the Situation of Mount Lucerna and Figuring Out the Source of Situational Disorders – Complete]

Isla looked at the two rows of writing and directly examined Linker who was in her hand and of course, the two names that were previously gray had turned green. Using all the rest of her strength, the girl pressed the tool in her hand continuously without even blinking.

He needs to deliver this message.

...

A black-haired young man was seen sitting while looking at the tool he had just pulled out of his shirt pocket. His black eyes that were looking at the bright screen in front of him were looking as if they were giving off an unusual sharpness.
