Primordial Dimensions

Shane was curious to know how the large group of young men and women would defeat the superior awakened stage beast, the government's common elite units had problems with.

As such, he followed them without bothering whether or not they noticed him.

It was not like he was forbidden from roaming around and Shane's destination could be in the same direction as theirs though it was unlikely.

However, when the large group consisting of third-year students from one of the other big academies noticed that, they couldn't help but feel that the youth was playing around with them.

Adding the fact that Shane was playing around with Cosmo, who was jumping on his head, it was impossible for them to take him seriously.

They began to wonder whether the youth was trying to kill them by attracting the attention of the surrounding beasts or if there was something they were missing to understand.

Nevertheless, they didn't say anything because Shane's mana pool was restricted and the curved longsword that was sheathed in his scabbard released faint mana currents, indicating that it was a high-quality weapon.

There was also the fact that Shane's leather armor had holes in places and was caked in dried blood and stains all over the armor, which could be due to different reasons.

In the end, nobody out of the large group said anything to Shane because he didn't do anything that could attract the surrounding beasts.

Rather, he was extremely silent in comparison to their large group with 40 members.

With such a large group, it was impossible to not make any sounds and Shane couldn't help but feel that they were easily distracted.

He was not even doing anything except playing around with Cosmo, and their behavior was similar to a large group of goats that encountered a predator.

Yet, there were five students that were unruffled by his presence and focused on their surroundings, which piqued Shane's curiosity even further.

'[Gold] quality scout occupation? Or is that already at the [Platinum] quality?' He noticed that one of the young men was able to lead around all kinds of large beast hordes before they even arrived.

This ability was great, and Shane couldn't help but think that it was almost similar to a foretelling ability.

At the same time, the individual beasts which the group of 40 encountered were quickly taken care of by three archers that could utilize a wind affinity.

Meanwhile, those beasts that were able to rush past the archers didn't even get a chance to arrive in front of the group!

Huge fireballs had been shot towards the low-ranked Awakened stage beasts.

Only a moment later, an earth wall shot out of the ground, in the direction the beast wanted to rush to evade the fireball, effectively blocking it.

This combination was great and Shane found that the group was very compatible with each other.

There seemed to be a single woman in the center of the group that everyone wanted to protect.

In the beginning, Shane could only assume a few reasons for that, and one of them was that she was beautiful, with her long, slender legs, pretty facial features, and long, silky hair.

Though he highly doubted that this was the reason which was proven correctly after Shane saw her using a skill that amplified everyone's stamina regeneration after a fight was concluded.

'She is using her skills too often! Her mana will be used up before the real fight begins...'

The young woman was able to simultaneously use several skills that were based on healing and recuperating the group's injuries and strength.

This was extremely beneficial and useful, but only if used properly.

Nevertheless, Shane didn't belong to the group in front of them and was not eligible to say anything, even if he knew that the blond-haired healer was straining herself a lot.

This would be taxing on her body and mind and she would probably collapse in the near future.

Other than the fact that nobody noticed what kind of burden the young woman was carrying on her shoulders, the group was able to work well in a team.

There was no issue in their communication and they worked in perfect synchronization.

A young man with blond hair and facial features that resembled the young healer in the center of the group was leading the group. He walked through the large forest that led to the outskirts of the mountain range as if their group was invincible.

He was the group leader and the healer's older brother.

Within the whole group, he was the only one with a [Platinum] quality combat occupation, if one were to exclude support occupations like a scout and healer!

This gave him the confidence to decide that he was the leader of their group, despite not having the highest mana purity amongst all the group members!

Nevertheless, with a mana purity of 83%, he was not far from reaching the limits of 85%, which came from the mana purification manual he was currently using.

With such a high mana purity, he belonged to the top 1% of all big academies, and the first task he wanted to accomplish with the group he and his sister had established, was to defeat the superior Awakened stage beasts that were considered an anomaly!

Meanwhile, Shane was still interested in the group in front of him, however, this lessened by a large margin after he had seen what he wanted to.

'Their teamwork is good, but this blond-haired Swordsman, or whatever his occupation is, is trying to dominate everyone passively. Both siblings, if they're siblings, are the weakest links of the chain. They're the strongest, yet weakest, how is that possible?'

Shane could tell that the group hadn't been established recently as it was apparent despite their great teamwork.

'If they had attended the same academy and combat courses, their teacher's teachings were probably the reason for such great teamwork and communication between each member...if it were not for the healer overworking herself and the swordsman thinking too highly of himself and his group…'

It was advantageous that everyone had accepted the Swordsman as their leader because they had prevented disagreements created by utilising a voting method, which was what Shane expected to have happened.

However, at the same time, he could tell that the fight against the superior Awakened stage beast wouldn't be an easy one.

Their group had already appeared in front of the gigantic mountain that was their destination, and after gazing at the hillside, they spotted a winged goat.

The winged goat had long recurved horns, and sky-blue fur but pitch-black eyes.

When Shane saw the winget goat, he couldn't help but feel weird.

'Is that winged glacier goat, a demonized one? How did that happen?'

He was sure that a winged glacier goat could only reach the Peak-awakened stage with a combat prowess comparable to that of an Expert with a mana purity of 70% at most.

Yet, based on the rumors he had heard, there should be a superior awakened beast equally strong to someone of the Expert stage with a mana purify of 90%!

It was not unlike that the winged glacier goat had reached such a combat prowess after being demonized and Shane could only hope that the large group would take care of everything.

However, what confused Shane was that the Demonized winged glacier goat didn't initiate an attack on the large group!

'Was the intel wrong?' It was the first thing he assumed, only to see that the large group had already started preparing something.

Suddenly, just before they had finished their preparations, the goat that hadn't moved a single inch spread its wings as it bleated loudly.

Diving towards the large group, the goat manifested several large icicles and shot towards them as a means to show its dominance and high combat prowess.

Exactly at the same moment, a large, red, seemingly burning magic circle manifested below the large group. All of them threw out a large bulk of mana stones next to a youth who laid out a magic circle parchment on which he had inscribed the [Intensified sun light] magic circle.

This caused the surrounding temperature to increase manifold and Shane began to sweat profusely, while the large group that was the center of the magic circle seemed to be unaffected!

The female, blond-haired healer was blocking the high temperature from reaching her group members and affecting them while utilizing all kinds of other abilities.

At the same time, Shane noticed that the icicles which the winged goat had shot towards the large group began to melt.

The icicles' lethality had been reduced drastically and destroying them didn't require much effort anymore, yet, Shane's attention was trained somewhere else!

'This runemaster is amazing!'
