Once the group entered the nest, they thickened to hunt the groups of bears gathering more and more carcasses, even obtaining five level 5 bears obtaining two level 5 carcasses for each one.

While the group was having fun killing the bears, the group of six hooded people entered the cave.

"Boss what should we do, wait for them to come out of the cave or split up and look for them" said one of the men.

"Split up and follow them let them go deeper into the cave once they reach the leader, we are going to stop an accident, kidnapping the mayor's daughter and leaving the bodies of the other two making it look like a mutual death with the monster, in that way people will believe that they sacrificed themselves to save the mayor's daughter and that she escaped somewhere else and we can take her, but remember to erase all evidence of our interference, I will stay outside the cave" said the boss

"Boss who plows while we are in the cave" said another of the hooded men.

"I will stay at the door of the cave to watch a week ago the magistrate discovered that the mayor had hired Asura to protect his daughter, as a result Asura would reject this type of mission, but the mayor managed to convince him with some method" he said the boss the moment the subordinates heard that felt like a knife was at their throats.

"Boss, but if it's Asura he shouldn't be inside the forest anymore" said the third hooded man with fear in his voice as if he were already a dead man.

"Don't worry when the magistrate got the information, I checked the list of the students who arrived plus those who stayed in the school for the last few years, so it's not one of the students in disguise, besides the magistrate placed a lock in the entire forest preventing anyone from entering and leaving, even if Asura broke into the divine realm he will not be able to enter as he pleases at least we estimate that he will not be able to enter in 5 days if he wants to do it stealthily" said the boss confidently.

Hearing this, the subordinates relaxed. In the past, Asura's reputation was unclear as his work was said to have a 100% chance of success, which made people think that it was just flowery words from people, since They considered Asura an assassin who attacked from behind or used dirty tricks, until one day one of his employers ordered him to assassinate the champion of the dark arena, a clandestine combat tournament where the big mafias and the big fish of the city They sent their best man to fight, the winner takes all the losers are lucky to keep their lives.

Asura participated to complete his duty, people thought that he would not last long, but as the fights passed one after another, he finished off each participant one after another of his opponents, leaving them in miserable states, where it was preferable to be dead, and when he arrived He killed the champion in front of everyone as if he were a street dog who crossed his path, from that day on no one returned to belittle the demon that was Asura, in addition to begging not to become his target.

As the group calmed down, they relaxed and entered the interior of the cave and then separated to find the young people.

While Chris and the girls finished with the tenth group of creatures, almost a day had passed and he was outside the nest in the evenings.

"...."

When suddenly Chris noticed that the group of men that followed him had entered the nest and divided, one of them was heading to his position, killing him would be a piece of cake for him, but he had no intention of doing that and that's why he I had prepared for this moment.

"Guys I found some level 6 creatures near us there are 3 of them and they're headed here" Chris said.

"Level 6, how come they appeared, they shouldn't leave their respective locations until tomorrow, and we were also hunting in places that didn't alert them because they detected us," said Aurora, confused, the truth is that they hadn't detected them, Chris knew where these creatures were and thought use your hands for them to get rid of the intruder.

"I think it's a little early to use this, but I think I should use it now" Chris said as he pulled out a set of discs with magical marices etched on them, booby-trapped from his space bag.

"Why are you wearing these things?" Aurora asked.

"I was hoping that we could find a high-level beast to create a suitable weapon, so I prepared them," said Chris

The truth really was that he had prepared them for his pursuers, but he couldn't tell Aurora that.

"But these things are very valuable, they could even enclose and hurt a holy kingdom, it would be a waste to use it on level 6 creatures" said Aurora thinking that it was a waste of the objects.

"Don't worry I have other sets, also if we were to fight with those level 6 creatures now, we would only attract the others it's better to use one set and avoid problems, I'll use the rest when we get to the boss" Chris replied to Aurora so she wouldn't put more opposition.

Deciding what to do they prepared the traps and the confinement array, while preparing their magic power to attack from a long distance.

When the bears appeared and entered the matrix at that moment a shadow passed by them causing the sealing matrix to activate enclosing the shadow and the bears, surprising the shadow, the shadow was the first to react, trying to break matrix.

*BAM*

*CRACK*

But before he touched it the explosives went off sending him flying into the wall with the bears.

"What the hell is going on"

As his wound-covered body suddenly stood up he noticed a purple lightning snake heading towards him followed by two balls, one of extremely hot blue fire and the other one black as night with an ominous sense of destructive power.

"WARRR…"

When he was preparing to evade the attacks, one of the bears that had already recovered became enraged and attacked the man in black thinking that he was the culprit of the previous attack, which caused the man in black and the bears to not be able to evade the attacks. approaching magic.

When the man received the attacks, he did not die instantly with the bears next to him, but he realized that he had fallen into the trap that had been set for the bears causing him to die with them, feeling the shame of a death so humiliating that only a rookie would commit no hope to live and died a short time later from humiliation.

When Chris, Lillia and Aurora checked on the bears they were proud of their easy victory, but when they saw the body of the man in black Aurora ran to check on him thinking he was another student who had entered the nest.

When checking the man, she realized that he was not a student, but when she saw the dead man's face and checked her belongings, her look changed to that of disgust.

"What happened?" Lillia asked.

"These people were probably evaded by the magistrate at the request of her son to capture me" said Aurora with disgust in her voice it was not the first time she had experienced this, but remembering how John always looked at her with perverse intentions. It was obvious what she planned to do with her, it only made her annoyance grow more, but this was not the time to worry about these things.

"There is probably a total of 6 people, 5 now that one has died in our trap" Chris said with great confidence in his words.

"Why are you so sure there are only 5 more" asked Lillia.

"That's because when the magistrate arrived there were 12 guards with him, but when he left the field where we all were he only had 6" Chris replied to Lillia's question.

"Do you really pay attention to these things?" Aurora asked with some interest in her voice as to why she knew this.

"I only saw them leave when I was looking for them, I thought it was strange that there were 6 less guards, and when I saw the dead body of the man in black in front of us, I remembered the 6 missing men since he looks like one of them" said Chris even though what he said was real, his earlier statement was because he already knew the number of those chasing after him due to his magic detection.

"What should we do now that experts from the holy kingdom are on our trail" Lillia said.

"We should get out of the nest as soon as possible and seek support…" Aurora said, but before she could say anything else she was stopped.

"That's not possible these people should have let someone guard the entrance and the rest are looking for us so we can't escape, but we can make a bet," said Chris.

"What kind of bet?" Lillia asked.

"We can lure the bears from level 6 of the nest to concentrate on one side and have the other people follow once everything is gathered, we can use all the explosives with the sealing matrix to try to finish them off at once." said Chris.

"But what about the one at the entrance? As long as we don't get rid of him, we can't get out," said Aurora.

"I know, but usually in the nests there is a back exit in the boss room, it's easier to deal with a weakened level 7 creature than with a holy realm expert at his best" Chris replied to the concern.

Since they didn't have many options left, they didn't think too much about it and instead decided to draw the attention of the creatures in the nest.

In another area of ​​the cave the 4 hooded men gathered.

"No one has managed to find the group of 3 children" said the first hooded man.

"This nest is like a labyrinth and we can't kill the creatures or it could alert those 3 and they would try to escape which would damage the cover-up plan" said the second hooded man.

"You haven't noticed that the movement of the creatures changed as if they were gathering in one place" said the third hooded man.

When he finished speaking there was the sound of an explosion near them.

"Let's go check" said the first hooded man.

Once they followed the place where the explosion was heard, they found the group of 3 young people fighting against a swarm of level 5 and 6 creatures.

"Guys we may not have to wait for them to get to the head of the nest as things are they will die in a few moments we can hide between the creature and capture the girl while we leave the other two to die" said the fourth hooded man.

"You're right and this way we don't have to wait here any longer, get ready we'll go in now and take the girl" said the first hooded man.

Upon receiving the approval, they did not wait any longer and hid among the creatures once they were close suddenly the sealing matrix was activated enclosing them with the bears, the matrix was programmed so that when a human person entered it would be activated by that despite the fact that the bears were in the hue, it had not been activated.

*BAM BAM BAM BAM*

Before the 4 men could understand what had happened a bunch of booby traps were activated sending them to their deaths, even after they died the 4 men didn't know what happened to them.

As Chris, Lillia and Aurora watched them from the side.
