Another World Mall

"Raaa!" The beasts screamed as Clovis and Jay broke through their rank and finally reached Christina.

"!!!" Christina and Erwin were surprised by their sudden appearance. These two were actually much faster than they originally thought.

The Tier 7 beast hurriedly spun its body as if trying to slam them away, but Erwin hurriedly waved both his hands, sending forth his wires.

Of course, the beasts around Erwin immediately struck him, but eight spider legs emerged from his back and blocked their attacks, even just for a second.

He wrapped the Tier 7 beast's arm with his wires and pulled with everything he had.

"!!!" The beast looked shocked and used the last bit of its strength to swing Erwin.

With a few beasts hitting him from behind and the pulling force of the Tier 7 beast, Erwin lost his footing. He got pulled up into the air, swung around, and launched to the building on the left.

*Bam!*

"Kh." Erwin gritted his teeth, enduring the pain. A smile formed on his face as he muttered, "Got you, bitch."

Erwin's effort managed to slow down the Tier 7 beast, resulting in Clovis and Jay reaching the beast and striking it at the same spot before the claws arrived.

The beast's skin was extremely tough. Even with Clovis and Jay's combined power, they could only graze its body, while most of their power was directed to the body and launched the Tier 7 beast to the opposite side.

*Bam!*

The beast crashed into two pillars and destroyed them before rolling on the ground until it stopped.

Christina hurriedly activated her Provoke to the highest degree, not letting the beast disappear from their sight.

"Sorry for making you wait." Clovis smiled.

Christina smiled wryly. It seemed Clovis understood how lonely it was to be a guardian. Then again, she realized she had been pressured so much that the despair came much faster than she originally expected. It was clear she needed more mental training after this.

"Raaa!" The Tier 7 beast emerged from the rubble and leaped toward them at its fastest speed.

Christina's expression turned solemn as she hurriedly moved her body to the front, blocking the charge.

She planted the shield to the ground, but it wasn't enough, as the beast still pushed her back. But a pair of hands came from behind, pushing her.

"!!!" Christina was surprised and glanced back, finding Erwin behind her.

"Don't forget about me, guys. My ego can't handle it." Erwin grinned jokingly.

There were still about 20 beasts around them, so they had to deal with them as well.

Without saying anything, Clovis looped around Christina and struck the beast on the right side.

The beast once again ignored Christina's Provoke and struck Clovis. The latter shifted his position and lowered his center of gravity, deflecting the force to the side.

Several beasts came toward him after seeing the opportunity presented by their overlord.

But Jay abruptly moved in their way while slashing them with his strongest ranged attack. Without any Tier 5 or Tier 6 beast among them, they couldn't hope to beat the four humans anymore.

Since Jay was the dangerous one and his back was exposed, the Tier 7 beast pushed Clovis down and launched another attack on Jay.

Christina focused the Provoke on the beast's claws, but it wasn't enough to stop this attack. That was when wires came in. Erwin wrapped the hand and pulled it toward Christina's shield.

With their combined efforts, the beast couldn't do much with its attack.

Jay skillfully turned around and swung his blade from above with his beast soul. Other beasts tried to stop them, but Clovis swiftly looped around Jay and struck them from below. Jay took a step forward and completed his swing even without saying anything to Clovis. It was as if both Clovis and Jay knew what was on each other's mind.

When Jay attacked, Clovis would cover for him, and vice versa.

Still, as one would expect from the Tier 7 beast, a single person's attack wasn't enough to injure it. While Jay could hit the beast and cut its skin slightly, it wasn't deep enough to make it bleed.

"Tsk." He clicked his tongue, but Clovis hurriedly spun his body and used that momentum to strike the back of Jay's blade, giving the additional push he needed to slash through the skin.

"Reee!" The beast screamed in pain. This attack actually went deeper than their first strike, but it was still considered a shallow wound.

Clovis squinted his eyes. If their attacks were this ineffective, it would take forever to kill this beast. On the other hand, they only had 16 minutes left for their food. At this rate, the boost would have disappeared before they could kill this beast.

There was only one way of winning this battle. Clovis had to unleash his full strength, even the one beyond his control.

With Christina, Erwin, and Jay with him, it would be fine if he lost control a bit.

'Let's go all out!' Clovis unleashed the limiter he set for his mind. He let his instinct take over as bloodlust began to leak out of his eyes.

"!!!" Christina looked surprised, but she couldn't say anything, as this was their last chance to win.

"Haaaa!" Clovis shouted, unleashing every bit of his strength to push Jay's blade deeper.

"Reee!" The beast screamed as the blade was pushed deeper and deeper. Blood started to flow down Jay's blade as the beast hurriedly moved away.

"You're not getting away!" Christina activated Provoke on the beast's feet.

Without much rationality left, Clovis couldn't change his target anymore. He was fixated on killing the Tier 7 beast, so he charged forward, ignoring all the surrounding beasts.

However, there was no need for him to worry. Jay and Erwin came to his side, slicing them with both the blade and wires.

Meanwhile, Christina became bolder and pushed the beast with her shield to pin its movement.

Clovis took advantage of it to hit the beast's face.
