Life didn't get easier, even in another world.

BAMMM

A loud sound rang out throughout the land. 

Everybody would say that it was the sound of two metal things clodding, but it wasn't.

It was only Darren's fist and The Fifth arm hitting each other. 

The Fifth stopped charging towards them and blocked Darren's fist with his arm, jumping a little bit backward and chuckling.

"Heh!"

He moved his arm which he used to block Darren's attack, looking amused.

"What's so funny?"

Darren raised his feet, aiming to kick the man's neck this time. 

BANG

The Fifth blocked the kick again with his arm again and grabbed Darren's leg with both hands, dragging him towards himself. 

Completely twisting his body, Darren jumped to the air and this time, kicked the man's face with his other foot.

"OH?"

The Fifth let go of his leg and took another step back. He glanced at Darren with an amused face and smiled.

"An aura user who doesn't use a sword, huh?"

"...."

Darren glared at him without giving an answer. He tapped the ground with the tip of his foot with a frown.

It hurt.

He was the one who had hit the man in the face but his leg was throbbing instead.

'He is powerful.'

He realized that once again.

He knew that he couldn't take him lightly.

There weren't many cases where he needed to use his aura in a battle. His sheer physical strength was enough to beat the shit out of the enemies most of the time, but that didn't seem to be the case this time.

That's why he decided not to hold back anything.

"...."

A black light started to cover Darren's body. His arms and legs got wrapped in the light that looked more like darkness than light.

The Fifth and Darren stood face to face, not moving.

"There are more coming."

The other unit members turned to where the team leader was staring. 

The dust was slowly settling down. Their surroundings were getting clear little by little. 

They could now see the agents of unit 6 on the other side. 

They could see the half-damaged building and the crumbled walls.

And they could also see a bunch of people walking out through the path created in the wall of fire.

Some of them started to cast spells as soon as they left the fire and some rushed at them while holding their weapons. 

"I thought they were all dead!"

"Not apparently."

The enemies divided themselves into groups and rushed towards the agents scattered here and there. A big number of the enemies were also heading towards them.

Team leader Dains looked at the enemies before turning to Darren and Carlson. They seemed to have already guessed what he wanted to say, as they both nodded their heads while stepping towards The Fifth.

"We'll take care of him."

"You can go."

Team leader Dains nodded his head and turned away. 

"Elsie, you stay here as well."

"Yes, sir."

Elsie also nodded and stepped back.

"OY!"

The Fifth yelled loudly.

"Running away?"

BAMM

He jumped all the way from where he was standing to the group in the blink of an eye and raised his fist.

He was so fast that even Darren and Carlson couldn't react to him on time.

BAMMM

But his fist didn't hit anyone. 

There was an invisible wall between him and the others. The barrier blocked his attack completely.

He immediately got what had happened. 

The Fifth took a better look around. Now that he looked closely, there was a barrier completely surrounding him and the two aura users. 

He turned towards the one responsible for this, the female mage. Looking at his distorted face, Elsie chuckled.

"You guys can go."

The group took another look at the three party members who were going to fight with a strong enemy and stepped back.

BAMMM

While they were preparing to fight the enemies rushing towards them, they heard a loud sound from the place where the unit 6 members were gathered. 

Kairen could see a huge pile of dust rising into the air and also some water figures floating near it.

"There is no need for all of us to gather in one stop."

Team leader Dains commented that while signaling to the deputy team leader.

"Take a team and help the others. Just make sure to keep in touch with me."

"Yes."

The unit members divided themselves into two teams without even exchanging a word as if they were ready to do it for a long time.

"Get them."

"Kill all those agents."

"Those bastards."

The enemies were right in front of their faces now.

Bang Bang 

With the sound of bullets being shot, the enemies fell down one by one. 

The first team was engaged in battle already.

"Let's go."

Deputy team leader Bray didn't hesitate to leave her teammates behind and run to the place where a fierce battle seemed to be going on. Following him, Kairen and Serria also left the team and rushed to that place. 

"Where do you think you are going?"

"Kill them all."

Of course, they had to take care of the people who wanted to block their way first.

. . . .

BAMMM

Another pile of dust rose to the air.

"S-sir!"

The unit members looked at their deputy team leader. 

The ground was cracked and destroyed right where he was standing a few seconds ago.

Kain raised his head and looked at the people surrounding them. They were a lot in number, yet not too strong. They would be able to take care of that bunch, but there was another problem now.

They had been busy fighting with the enemies for a few moments when suddenly two people popped up out of nowhere.

One of them stood back and the other one charged at Kain. And that one was the real deal.

Kain raised his hand. Swords made out of water floated in the air, aiming at the man who was holding a spear.

'He made it right now...'

Kain had seen the man create the spear out of the soil right before his eyes.

He appeared out of nowhere, could manipulate soil, and was hiding his face.

"Who are you?"

Kain couldn't help but ask that.

The man looked around. He looked at the agents. He stared at the people's uniforms, their masks, weapons, and then sighed.

"SFB...!"

"...."

The man raised his spear. He leaned forward a little bit and rushed towards Kain.

"Don't look at me like that, okay? This is not personal."

"What?"

BAMM

The spear and a huge water barrier collided. 

The spear's shape changed a little bit upon touching the water. The man stopped moving and looked at his spear. 

Seeing them start fighting, the other enemies and agents also rushed at each other. 

"Wait, guys!"

Looking at the unit members engaging in battle, Kain yelled loudly and tried to stop them. 

"What are you doing!? Get into the formation!"

But no one listened to his words and did whatever they wanted to do.

"Tsk!"

Kain moved his hand at that moment. Dozens of water blades attacked the man, heading towards his body at a high speed.

But the water swords couldn't do any harm either. The man dodged half of them and blocked the rest with a layer of soil.

Kain kept creating water swords and the man continued to dodge them while narrowing the distance between the two of them.

The ground was wet and muddy, making it hard to move and one would slipper if they weren't careful but the man was moving quickly as if he wasn't even affected by it.

"Hah!"

Seeing that his attacks were useless, Kain finally stopped creating water swords and instead, created a whip.

"Boy, you are not doing it right. You can't use water against me!"

"Pardon?"

Kain frowned and moved his whip. The whip flew towards the man, grabbing his spear and pulling it back.

But then-

SPLASH

The water vanished.

"...."

Kain stared at his water whip that got half-absorbed by the man's spear. 

The spear's color changed. It was no longer a spear made out of the soil, but a spear made out of the mud.

"...."

BANGG

Kain jumped back and dodged the man's upcoming attack and created another bunch of water swords.

But again, it was no use.

BANNGG

And another attack landed right beside him. The ground was destroyed a few inches to his right and dust rose to the air. 

"Damn!"

Kain was being pushed back.

'What should I do? His spear strikes move powerfully after absorbing that water!'

He had accidentally made his enemy stronger.

BANG BANG BANG

He couldn't do anything but dodge his attacks. Kain constantly jumped back in order to get further away from the man.

'I can't go too far away.'

He couldn't just keep moving around. He had to be close to his subordinates and couldn't move away from them. 

Just when he was thinking of how to deal with the enemy before his eyes, the man suddenly stopped attacking him and turned to one side.

Kain could see a bunch of people approaching them once he also looked at that spot. 

He knew by looking at their uniforms that they were the members of unit 5.

"Hah!"

He scoffed and raised his hand.

'They are coming to help us since we are too incompetent?'

He felt a little bit offended.

Incompetent.

Right, they were incompetent.

Why was it like this? Why did he need help from them all the time? 

Why didn't his own teammates even listen to him? 

Why did he get injured every time he was on a mission? Was it because he was weak? 

No. Definitely not. He was one of the most talented agents. Someone who had been trained since childhood. Someone who had one of the best records in SMF.

Kain looked away from the group that was coming their way. They were coming there to help them and he was grateful for that, but he couldn't help but feel embarrassed and irritated. 

Kain gritted his teeth and rushed towards the man.

"..."

The man slightly flinched after seeing him suddenly charge at him and attempted to move back but his back hit something once he took one step backward.

SHHH

It was a wall of water that was blocking his path.

When he turned forward again, he saw the young man standing in front of him with a water spear in his hands.

"Oh!"

The man exclaimed in surprise.

"It is impressive I could say.. But as I told you, you can't defeat me using water."
