[The first wave shall now comence]

Lea stood in place not moving a single inch while watching the walls that were around 45 meters away from her in every direction had begun to open, releasing the abominations that happened to be inside.

*Thump* *Thump*

Her heart was beating loudly while the sweat in the palms of her hand had made it difficult to hold the daggers upright.

When she finally saw what she was up against for the first round, she could not help but widen her eyes in surprise, not because the thing that she was up against was abnormally strong, but instead because the thing she was facing was a little too weak.

\'I should have expected this from the first wave, right?\' she asked herself, but instead of standing around and playing with her opponents, she had decided that it was better if she did not waste a single second and would begin to move immediately.

Before her opponent, which happened to be an intermediate tier beast that resembled a squirrel, could realize what was happening, she was already in front of one of them and had swung her dagger towards its head, decapitating it cleanly off its body and causing it to hit the floor with a wet sound of mush hitting the ground.

"Before the other two could react to her attack in time, she disappeared and appeared once again behind one of the remaining four before raising her arm in the air and slicing down with all her weight and power, cutting it in half.

This time, the other squirrel seemed to have seen her coming, immediately gathering mana in its mouth.

In the next instance, it had let out a large beam that rivaled the power of even a supreme tier beast if not a Lord tier one.

However, due to her having mana eyes, she had seen the attack coming from a mile away, allowing her to dodge without much effort before slicing the air horizontally and decapitating the squirrel in a single move.

This carried on for the next 4 seconds, each squirrel being killed by a slash to the neck or being cut into two pieces or more without much hesitation from the person committing the killing.

[You have completed the first wave in 17 seconds]

[#1-Ronny: 4 seconds]

[#2-Jacob: 7 seconds]

[#3-Lea: 17 seconds]

\'What the hell!\' she thought to herself, yet when she took into account that she wasn\'t really trying or using her preferred weapon of choice, she let herself calm down and realize that she might not have been doing that bad.

Little did she know that the other two didn\'t even bother to bring out weapons, both using either a bullet spell or their bare fists to smash the beasts into mush and paste along the walls, creating something close to a painting if one were to squint and look from a very precise angle.

[The second wave shall now comence]

They all watched at 10 squirrels had come out this time, all as ferocious and all as strong as the last ones making Lea think that they might have just been clones of the same beast.

This time Lea still finished last as Ronny had burnt all 10 into a crisp the moment they had appeared whole Jacob had turned them into minced meat with all the air blades slicing them up the moment they had stepped past the doors.

Lea was the only one conserving her strength for the meantime, yet due to that, she kept showing up in last place for every single one of these waves.

Eventually, on the 9th wave, they had found themselves fighting against over 50 large squirrels, taking Lea over 5 minutes to kill them all while the other two took less than 15 seconds to kill them all due to their magic.

[The tenth wave shall now commence]

[Welcome to the mini-boss round!]

[Kill the overlord Beast Squirrel]

When that message resounded in their ears, they couldn\'t help but look forwards toward the gate with wary expressions.

They could feel the energy of the thing behind the gate that had manifested, waiting to be opened to unleash the beast within.

Not wanting to waste any more time, they had all taken out their respective weapons and had chosen not to mess around with this current fight.

They all had their respective plans where no one but fate would be capable of knowing if it would work, yet after seeing the difficulty of the trials before this wave, they did not worry too much since they were mostly sure that the boss would not be much stronger then the spawns.

Lea had drawn out her Phantom Phoenix bow and had pulled back on the string, added mana, and aimed at the squirrel that seemed to be several times larger than the ones that appeared at the start of the trial on the first wave.

Without thinking about it much, she had launched an arrow yet instead of it being made out of arcane magic or to be precise, pure mana, it had been created out of the air affinity.

The arrow had started to spin like drill mid-air and pierced through the air to get closer to its opponent in the fastest time possible.

*Pitui*

Not realizing the amount of power she had inserted into the first arrow, she had already knocked another arrow made out of the air on the string and had launched it towards the beast, before following it with another, and another, and another.

When she was about to shoot her 9th arrow, she finally snapped out of her fighting-maniac state and took a good look at the beast.

\'Oh crap!\' She thought while her eyes were locked onto the beast that had as many holes in it as Swiss cheese.

[You have completed the 10th wave in 9 seconds]

[All contestants have completed the wave]

[#1-Lea: 9 seconds]

[#2-Ronny: 12 seconds]

[#3-Jacob: 23 seconds]

In the other rooms, both the boys were looking at the screen in front of them with widened eyes.

In one of the rooms, Ronny was standing in front of the screen with a wry smile on his face.

The smile wasn\'t one with any malice behind it nor did it have a hint of envy or anger within it, instead, it was filled with pride, pride that Lea was capable of so much more than she liked to show.

Jacob had the same reaction to seeing Lea as the person in first place yet it quickly dwindled to anger when he saw that he was once again below Ronny.

\'How am I supposed to stand by her side when I am this weak?\' He asked himself in a sulking mood, yet his eyes perked up as fast as they had dropped when he heard the same monotone voice speak once again.

[The eleventh wave shall now commence]

Jacob\'s eyes darted around the room to see who the next competitor would be since he had thought that the boss would be the last thing they would have to fight, yet he found himself utterly mistaken.

He quickly remembered that the large squirrel was just supposed to be a mini-boss indicating that the main boss would be much stronger than the one he had fought in the last wave.

Finally, he heard a strange sound coming from above just to see that an aerial beast or to be precise, 5 aerial beasts were flying right above him, looking at him with their piercing eyes.

"This is my moment!" He resolutely told himself, readying himself to attack the flying creature and eradicate its being with his air magic.

***

Back on planet Solaris outside the dimensional crack stood a few officers from the army making notes on the area around the crack and about the crack itself.

From the mana fluctuations they already understood that the things within would be more powerful than someone in the peak gaseous stage could handle, yet even then they could not risk having the entirety of the area within come out and land in their world.

"Miss! I think it is irrational to not call a backup time. If anything were to happen, you would be the one held responsible for it" A man told a woman with a darker jacket than the rest.

This was the same woman I had an encounter with when joining the camp as well as the same woman I had an encounter with before entering the crack.

Before the woman could even say anything, she heard a loud voice announce something that caused her eyes to widen before her entire body began to shudder uncontrollably at the mention of someone\'s name.

"DING DING! The hero of the Northern breach as well as our Brigadier, please welcome Brigadier Raven to our camp! Please come to the main entrance to greet him."
