A few hours later, Kai was out of breath. Although he didn't use his magic power that much, he had been going all out with his body. And it was normal for him to be short of breath like this, but the scenery before him was amazing.

There were fifty magical beast corpses lying on the ground. The blood dyed the ground red and covered it with a pungent smell.

"I think there are fifteen minutes left before lunchtime. I can kill another group, but I think I should stop here because my stamina can't really keep up." Kai sighed and started walking back toward the camp.

To his surprise, Tasha was already there, baffling him.

"Tasha?"

"Oh." Tasha nodded while preparing the meal.

"I am surprised." Kai gently smiled and walked toward her. "Do you need any help?"

"Cut me those veggies." Tasha pointed her hand to the nearby vegetables before asking, "Why are you surprised?"

"I thought you were going to come last with your Teleportation magic."

"Haha… You misunderstood me. I want to win the competition, but I don't want any of you to torture yourself because of it, so the least I can do is to prepare your meal." Tasha smiled.

"Thank you."

"What thank you? There is no need to say thank you between us." Tasha shrugged. "Besides, I am not giving up, you know."

Kai chuckled. "Fair enough."

He had heard the shattering sound of magical beasts. He could see many magical beasts raining down from the sky the whole time.

"What is your kill count?"

"Since the kill count is including the C rank or below, I have killed four hundred fifty beasts. If we raid those in the North and probably the Southwest, I think I can reach six hundred today alone. What about you?"

"One thousand." Tasha shrugged.

"Ahaha… You are using too much of your magic power, you know. It's not like the physical strength that we can recover just by resting. To use that much magic power, you need around two days to recover, especially because we still need to hunt more after this." Kai glanced at her.

"I plan to use only my Lightning Magic after this, so the consumption is not that much. Besides, I want to test my control over my magic power today. If it was a few months ago, I think I would have used two-third of my magic power instead of the half by using the teleportation magic this much."

"I don't keep track of how many you used, but if you say so, then it should be right." Kai nodded.

"Anyway, I won't be using this trick after this, so don't worry about me." Tasha smiled.

"Are you going to use your Space Magic, no, Sealing Magic?"

"Yeah."

"So, you want to compress air with your sealing magic and use it as a bomb?"

"Probably. That's why I am going to be a bit deeper two days later, drop the compressed air, and leave the area. The magic consumption must be lower than what I use today." Tasha nodded.

"If you are confident, then it's fine. But you remember, right?"

"Yes, yes. I won't get the reward if I get heavily injured. Don't worry. Just start planning our honeymoon later." Tasha smirked.

"You really know how to pressure me, eh?" Kai smiled. "But do you think it will be this easy?"

"Of course not. I predict that Ayaka will also go a bit deeper, utilizing her magic bomb to the fullest. By creating a delayed time bomb, she might be able to kill more beasts than me. As for Michelle, I bet she is going to hunt a bit more at night due to her magic. Though it's a bit hard for us to fight during the night because of the limitation of our eyes. As for Sofia… I don't really know. I feel that she is still holding back."

Kai thought for a moment. "Ayaka might do that while Michelle is really conserving her energy right now, so I guess I can let her go as long as she returns before 11 PM."

"Haha… A curfew?"

"No, no. She needs enough rest to keep fighting, so I need to make sure everyone has enough energy to keep going." Kai shook his head. "Sofia, on the other hand, is really holding her power back. It seems she still has her trump card against many enemies, so I will just wait for it."

"How many points do you think we have gotten as a whole?"

"How many do you get from those one thousand beasts?"

"Around seventy, I guess."

"Mine is forty. If we combine the other three, I think we can reach at least one hundred fifty. And with the joint operation after this and Michelle's night expedition, we should be able to hit two hundred fifty points today alone."

"If we can keep going at this rate, I think we can go home within ten days." Tasha thought. It was weird to say ten days because it was only two thousand five hundred points. However, judging how the group wanted to go all out after a few days of adjusting to this environment, that kind of pace seemed to be possible.

"No. I think it's still fourteen days." Kai shook his head. "The pace is right, but B rank or above monsters will be decreasing in number, so it will take more time to get them."

"I forgot about that, but yes, you are right." Tasha nodded.

"One thing that I want to remind you, make sure that you don't leave a trace, so you won't bring many beasts to our group," Kai said with a stern tone.

"I know. My and Ayaka's explosions surely produce a loud sound that can gather magical beasts from the surrounding. And the fact they will also start screaming to gather more beasts, I will make sure to confuse them. At the very least, they won't know where to go." Tasha nodded. "I think the others also know about it."

Kai smiled and didn't talk anymore. He helped Tasha prepare the lunch, and two minutes before lunchtime, Michelle appeared, followed by Tasha and Sofia. They never expected Kai and Tasha had prepared this for them.

It was true that they were hungry, but they realized it was a slick move from Tasha. She seemed to care about the others, but one thing she didn't mention to Kai. With her preparing the lunch, she would have alone time with Kai during this period, so even if she didn't win the war, she won the battle.

Albeit despite thinking like that, they still ate the food with pure bliss.

"By the way, how many points and kills did you get today?"

"I only killed one hundred today and ten points." Michelle raised her hand. Although the number was small, she didn't feel embarrassed at all. And no one made fun of her because she would become a devil during the night. Killing a total of six hundred might not be impossible for her.

"I have killed around five hundred because of my current fighting style and thirty-two points," Ayaka answered. "Let me adjust it a bit more for a few days, and I will get serious."

"I have barely reached the quota, four hundred, and twenty-five points." Sofia sighed.

"That's good. We have gotten one hundred fifty-seven points in total." Kai nodded with a smile. "After this, we will go to the north and wreak havoc there."

"Is there a strategy for this one?"

"I have listened to them for a while and confirm that the magical beasts are wolves. We will get as close as possible to them to decide about the plan because we want to see their power level." Kai thought for a moment and answered.

"I am sorry that I can't really discern them unless they are close," Sofia apologized.

"It's fine. You have been helpful enough." Kai smiled, waving his hand to tell her it was alright. "In any case, we have a lunch break for one and a half hours, so rest well.

The group nodded and finished lunch before going their own way to recover from their fatigue.

As soon as the time came, the group immediately headed toward the north, finding their first target only five minutes away.

"Sofia." Kai glanced at Sofia when they had gotten close to the territory of a pack of wolves. "There are a total of one hundred wolves inside there. What is their power level?"

"I think three A rank magical beasts, ten B rank, and the rest are C rank or below. I don't see any beast dangerous enough, so I am sure there is no intelligent beast."

Although they talked like this, Kai had created a small Sound Insulation magic, ensuring the wolves would not hear anything from them. At the same time, Kai was also blinded by this, but luckily, they had Sofia that could be their new eyes in this situation.

"I understand. The A rank magical beasts are our top priority, so we will kill them first. At least one of them. I, Tasha, and Michelle will try to assassinate those A rank monsters. As soon as we are done, you and Ayaka will use magic that can kill many of them at once. We can overpower the rest after that."

The girls nodded their heads as Kai expanded a bit his Sound Insulation room as they walked closer to the wolves.

When they were in sight, Kai expanded the Sound Insulation to the maximum, surrounding the entire area with his Sound Insulation magic.

The wolf also noticed the change in their surroundings and looked around, while there were three people creeping in the darkness as Kai raised two fingers and waved them down as if telling them to start.

Two shadows and one arrow flew from the darkness, heading toward the three A rank wolves. And the great battle had officially started.
