On average the beasts that breached into the inner district were between Lv47 - lv52. The average guild players strength was constantly improving in the beast tide. As the more beasts they killed the quicker they levelled up. However with the average guild members strength being only around level 49 - 50 , they would have had a hard time fighting the beasts on equal grounds. 

However with yume providing a 20% stat boost to allies while clipping the same from the enemy beasts , the beasts lost their edge as they were on the loosing side. 

This became even more evident in the NPC soldiers of the won knight infantry division who were already level 70. For them the battlefield turned into a slaughter field as they ran wild through the beasts. 

Rudra observed the situation for a while , while also participating in actively slaying the beasts. He levelled up !

He was using this opportunity to its fullest , he realized that such a leveling opportunity would not come often , hence decided to make the most of it. 

Maneuvering the division into parts where the clash was the highest , he was testing wether they could hold on against the intense pressure for long. 

He had his doubts , especially when the group came very close to where Rahim was fighting , however after half an hour of intense fight , when the group showed no signs of exhaustion , he got clarity that this group could make it. 

Rudra had heard the tales of the ultimate Equalizer the monk Yume and his battle control skill , however he had never personally experienced it in action. 

Seeing its effects here today he now understood why he was given that title. Not moving a single muscle on his body , he was the backbone of the entire divison. His skill could be considered borderline game breaking. 

Rudra thanked his lucky stars that he managed to recruit such a man into his guild , or the fight would have been infinitely more difficult to engage. 

Rudra approached near Wizard Rahim , who was using fireblasts after fireblasts in rapid succession towards beasts , it was a basic tier one spell that had very low mana consumption , however when casted by a wizard of Rahim's calliber , it one shotted every beast it hit. 

Rudra fought shoulder to shoulder beside him , and when the chance came he asked " Sir Rahim let me relieve you of that token on your chest ... ". 

Rahim was chanting continuously hence did not speak a word in reply , however had a smirk on his face. Then he used a spell that Rudra was all to familiar with. 

Medivhs special spell , World of fire.

Flames erupted from Rahim's feet as violent streaks of fire incinerated the beasts around him in a 50 meter radius. Not a single ally was hurt , however not a single beast was left alive! What exemplary control , what power! 

Rudra was left reminded about the glory of higher tier wizards. Medivh could barely cast the spell under special conditions , however neither was the power soo powerfull , and neither was the control soo precise. He was left in awe. 

Rahim turned towards Rudra and said " Sorry sir Won Knight , but I cannot give you the token even if it is you. Only the strongest on the battlefield may carry this token , the consequences of a beast eating it would be devastating , if you want to gain this token , you would have to take it with your own effort ". 

Saying so he went back to casting basic fireballs against more and more beasts. Rudra understood the situation now. He also understood why nobody in his past life was able to get the 100,000 merit point token in Purplehaze city. He had assumed that because the demolition boys never needed it to gain management rights that they never tried to take it. 

But only now he realised that nobody claimed the token , because nobody was capable enough to do it. 

However Rudra grinned , he was not afraid of a challenge , if he had to sneak his way up to gaining the token then be it. That's what he was going to do ! 

Focusing back on the beasts that were closing in , he started his fight again , while in his mind he started thinking of scenarios to get that token off of Rahim. 

However unbeknownst to Rudra , a man was silently observing his actions ... His movements were fluid and his sword art was exemplary , it was not a sword art based from the game , one based on flashy skills and wild swings , but a genuine sword art learned in the real world by fighting many sword masters. 

Effortlessly killing beasts , sometimes even two with a single sword move , he was out performing even the level 70 infantry soldiers in his kill count. All the while not even completely focusing on the battle . 

He was a character that Rudra would recognise instantly if he were to see him. His name was Edge , the guild leader of Eternal rebels guild , the man who sat at the throne of Hazelgroove kingdom after toppling emperor Aman in his past life. 

He was deemed as ' the ultimate opportunist ' , and he was eyeing Rudra currently , as he was waiting for the right time to strike.
