The first to notice their presence was an Area Controller Floating Spider. It shrieked a couple of times, alerting its brethren. Soon, three spherical silk structures flew towards them, with all three of them spanning a radius of four metres.

"They are being rowed by their psychic arms by grabbing hold of the pillars around us." An Area Controller said, having sensed the psychic energy dispersed into the surroundings of the approaching spherical silk structures.

She wholly focused on defence, using her two psychic arms to cover everyone present. Even though her strength was lacking, she could still be able to support in times of need. After all, the psychic energy of Espers was universally applicable.

The other Area Controller wrapped her psychic arms around everyone, creating two spherical domes, overlapping one another while sporting a small gap between each other. After this had been erected, she tried to divert the incident light, striving to turn them invisible.

"Amplifiers, one structure per each; take it down in under a minute," Rakh Veera crouched low, activating his Tier 1 Skill, turning his eyes green. He had the same Skill as Heima, Aura Sense. He unleashed his aura, creating a wave of suppression around him.

The suppressive aura could differentiate between friend and foe, slamming against the incoming Floating Spiders like a tidal wave, suppressing all Tier 1 Frenzy Beasts. In a 30 metre range around him, no Tier 1 Floating Spider could move, their eight limbs shivering under the suppression, with some of the weaker ones directly fainting.

Trait of Dominance!

Rakh Veera charged forward, each of his steps carrying him four metres. Followed by a spike in aura, his speed further increased, having activated his Tier 2 Skill.

Tier 2 Skill—Leap Burst!

It was a Peak Tier 2 Skill that allowed one to have explosive jumping speed, actuated instantaneously. Using the Skill, Rakh Veera jumped over the rock pillars, using their indentations as an anchor to muzzle around.

Every time he stepped foot on the rugged surface of a rock pillar, he would activate his Tier 2 Skill, creating an explosive jump, displaying the proficiency he had accumulated in the Skill through repeated practice in battles.

The Floating Spider flew before him, taking the opportunity when he was mid-flight, lacking any foothold to anchor himself. The Floating Spider was an Area controller, holding a large net before it, made of spider silk, looking tough, intending to trap the fellow.

Rakh Veera exerted strength in his right hand, throwing his spear towards the net unravelled before him, aiming at the spot where the silk rope had coiled around to form a sturdy knot. The spear shot forth from his hand, impacting the exact spot he had aimed at, prevented from piercing through due to lacking sharpness and the sturdiness of the point of impact.

But, its momentum carried it forward, forcing the web to coil around its shaft, the force behind it overwhelming the control exerted by the Area Controller Floating Spider's two psychic arms. Also, due to the position of aim, the web, now wrapped around the spear brushed past the Area Controller Floating Spider, lodging itself in a rock pillar.

It got stuck due to the adhesiveness of the webs coiling it.

"Nice try," Carried by the momentum of his jump, he arrived before the Area Controller Floating Spider, now defenceless after losing its only means of a weapon. He grabbed hold of its mandible using his hands, not suffering any damage due to his armour.

He sent a knee kick at its face, bursting its head from the force. He then directed his left leg on its abdomen, transferring part of his momentum to it, moving forward as a pair and hitting against a rock pillar.

The hold by his leg on one side and the impact on the opposite direction when the abdomen of the Area controller Floating Spider impacted against the rock pillar caused its body to burst, spilling forth all the body fluids in it, drenching the spear lodged in the rock pillar beside.

"The body fluids get stuck to the web, forming a layer over its adhesiveness, making it easy to be peeled off." Rakh Veera pulled out his spear, kicking on the rock pillar, his destination being the opposite rock pillar.

Mid-air, he used his other hand to pull at the spider web on his spear, peeling it off, the remainder of which he threw at an Amplifier Floating Spider that flew his way, impeding its movements for an instant.

Before it could free itself, Rakh Veera landed on a rock pillar, adjusting the angle of his next leap, calculating based on the direction of the Amplifier Floating Spider's movement. Activating his Tier 2 Skill again, he made a long jump, travelling almost 8 metres in the air before lodging his spear through the head of his opponent, easily claiming its life.

The resulting momentum carried him towards a rock pillar, one that he used to jump straight towards the spherical silk structure, slashing at it with his spear. Due to the suppressive aura he was exerting, amplified thanks to the Trait of Dominance, none of his opponents that were of Tier 1 could resist against his approach.

With a slash, Rakh Veera severed a portion of the spherical silk structure, killing the Floating Spiders that fell along his line of slash. Thanks to how he aimed his jump, one that had lost most of its momentum by the time he reached the spherical silk structure's vicinity, the rebound from his slash directed him towards another rock pillar, one that he used as a foothold to perform another jump.

After the two Tier 2 Floating Spiders that lorded over it were killed by him, dispatched to the afterlife thanks to his rich battle experience, he managed to kill the remaining Tier 1 Floating Spiders—within the spherical silk structure—using four slashes.

Blood spilled out like a waterfall from the spherical silk structure through the gaps torn in it, a result of his four attacks. But, it still hovered in the air, showing no signs of falling down even without any Floating Spider to control it.

"As expected, the silk weaved by Floating Spiders can innately float in the air. No wonder they always anchor it to the ground with a sturdy rope." Rakh Veera nodded, flashing between a couple of rock pillars as he descended to the ground.

"As always, you are fast." Another Amplifier descended 10 seconds after him, showing genuine shock and admiration.

"I feel inferior because of the two of you." An exhausted voice resounded as the final Amplifier descended, sporting a nick in his armour, finishing only when less than 5 seconds were left of the time limit Rakh Veera had set.

"Your Tier 2 Skill is defence related, it couldn't be helped." Rakh Veera consoled, motioning at the three damaged spherical silk structures hovering in the air, and trailing his line of sight at the two Area Controllers.

"As always, you have such bold ideas." One of the two Area Controllers sighed, catching his drift.

Accompanied by an Amplifier, she approached the rope that anchored a spherical silk structure. She unleashed her two psychic arms, coiling them around the silk rope, pulling at it as she lowered the altitude of the spherical silk structure little by little.

In fear of getting their hands stuck, no one else helped her, only forming a perimeter around her as a means of protection. The other Area Controller too did the same, lowering another spherical silk structure.

Once all the three spherical silk structures were lowered, the two Area Controllers began to work on them, layering the intact portions atop one another, making use of the adhesive portions and the non-adhesive portions.

They used the adhesive portions to layer them over one another, firmly attaching them, allowing the non-adhesive portions to form the topmost layer. One of the Area Controllers removed a cloth from the small backpack she wore, placing it over the top, using small strands of silk that retained its adhesive properties to tie the ends as support.

Rakh Veera used his spear to quickly sever the ends, giving the object a well-defined structural appearance. It had now been shaped into a carpet, spanning five metres in length and three metres in breadth. It also spanned 30 centimetres in thickness, forming a sturdy slab that possessed a sense of rigidness.

While the two Area Controllers were working on its shape, the remaining Espers used their psychic arms to hold the forming carpet in place. The Warriors too placed their legs atop the ends of the carpet—ones layered by the cloth—to anchor it in place, slightly struggling to prevent it from floating up.

"How is it?" Rakh Veera inspected his surroundings through his Tier 1 Skill, sensing the approach of the nearby Floating Spiders due to the commotion they had created.

"The floating effect it produces is slightly greater than our weight. Once we add some rocks to increase the weight and balance both forces, I will be able to row it across the air through my psychic arms by pulling at the rock pillars. But, this will prevent me from shielding everyone."

"If we focus solely on sight and sound, I will somehow be able to manage by myself." The other Area Controller said, watching Rakh Veera shake his head.

"Sight and Smell, focus on shielding those. The Skills of most Floating Spiders are smell-based." Once Rakh Veera said his piece, he got a unanimous nod of approval. Soon, everyone boarded the carpet, with one of them breaking a piece of rock from the rock pillar and holding it.

The two Area Controllers inspected the weight of the rock, shaving off some edges using the spindles they possessed before nodding in approval. Once they detached the anchor, the carpet began to float, carrying their weight. The structure was slightly unstable, thanks to the distribution of their body weight being uneven.

Soon, they rearranged their positions, based on the inputs given by the two Area Controllers as they manoeuvred the carpet, soon stabilising it. Once it was stabilised, one Area Controller created a dome around the carpet, turning them invisible, also preventing their scents from seeping out.

The other Area Controller spread her psychic arms on the two sides respectively, coiling them around the rock pillars along the way, pulling and pushing to row the carpet across the air, heading east.

They soon arrived above the rock pillars, their current altitude at 81 metres. Now, no longer obstructed by the terrain, they avoided the column of flowing water and began to proceed east, heading towards the body of water after fully analysing the terrain.

Watching everything from a clear vantage point, Jyorta felt his blood boil. The scene churned enough emotions in him that no action-packed movie could ever create. Just the way Rakh Veera fought made a vivid memory etched deep in his mind, unable to be forgotten.

Seated behind him, Hrita Bone exclaimed, unable to conceal the tone of admiration in her voice, "As expected of the teams led by the top 10 of the November Batch."
