Around this time, outside the painting, everyone was surprised to see a new name on the list of top highest points.

The new person had the codename of The Mysterious. A participant with a number of 1500.

"Eh? He got the last number for being registered," one of the audience said.

"In any case, who is this The Mysterious person?"

"His points suddenly rose up into the fourth place."

"I heard that the top 3 participants who complete this round with the highest points will get an extra reward," someone in the audience remarked.

"Really?!"

"Yes!"

"Woah! Her majesty the empress not only has an unparalleled beauty but she's a generous person also!"

"Right!"

"Long live her Majesty Empress Elleanna Encanta!"

Long live! Long live! Long live! Long live! For some reason, the people in the public square suddenly chanted the words. This put a smile on the empress's face.

"Ehehe, is this one of the reasons that you are doing this competition, Aunt?" Ella giggled at the people's love for her empress aunt.

"Ufufu, this is just a bonus," replied the empress with a bright smile on her eyes. She took a sip of her tea. But under the veil of her bright smile was a worry.

"Hmm….. who might this Mysterious person be? In any case, that person… I mean your guard has gone for a couple of minutes now, and it seems he's still inside. I wonder where that person is hiding..." the empress added.

Ella pushed the cup of tea towards her mouth while giving a side glance at her aunt. She knew who she meant by 'that person'. Honestly, she was surprised to see the new announcement of points that were currently displayed on every monitor. Because she knew who this person was with the codename of The Mysterious. In the first place, she was the one who made the registration for him. And she was the one who chose the name.

Ella also was wondering if where that person was right now, her Monitoring Devices could not catch sight of him in these past minutes. On the other hand, his points suddenly soared high.

Even in that area where high-ranking beasts were roaming everywhere, he was still able to accumulate such points! He really wasn't an ordinary person!

Her curiosity towards him stepped to a new height.

After a couple of minutes in the public square, "I wanted to bet for The Mysterious person!" A beardy old Demihuman shouted.

Aside from him, no one else wanted to vote for him. After all, no one knew who this The Mysterious person was. For most of them, it's better to bet their money to the most well-known and had a tested strength, than try their luck to the unknown individual.

So currently, from the audiences, the person who had the biggest accumulated bet as of now is no other than Roman, Gath Rainripper, and Hilion Gustav. Followed by Lyka and Harou of the Lowe family, then Ember Lupine and Gilion Gustav.

But what they were betting on was, whoever entered first to the last barrier would win!

At this point, Roman and the others were already near the second barrier. If not because of some Spiritual Beast that hindered their advance they probably already have entered the second barrier long ago.

Although Roman was a strong expert of 5-star False Path, he needed to take a detour from time to time in order to regain his spent mana. This second boundary was littered with high ranking beasts.

Nonetheless,

The beardy Oldman was being urged by his friends to bet on The Mysterious person.

They were singing praises about The Mysterious, that there was once a rumor about him beating some high ranking beast alone. That this Mysterious person was actually a popular person from the far village, he was a strong person that no one ever defeated him yet.

This kind of song of praises was of course a big farse. In truth, this old man was a noble who loves gambling, though he has never been able to win even once.

Actually, these two friends of his would occasionally urge him to bet on someone they praised while in truth the two of them would bet to the other side.

In this regard, they could win a great sum of money, because this old beardy noble was a big spender.

A money bag for them.

Like the other time, again they successfully urged him to bet on the wrong person. While on the other hand, they put their bet to Roman. In this regard, the amount they could win would increase.

They had a successful grin under the veil of a trusted looking friend. Their anxious hands were rubbing each other as they were excitedly waiting for the result. And in their minds, they planned in advance where to spend their money after.

Kukukukuku!

Their silent chuckle echoed in their minds.

Inside the painting,

"Gwaaaaarrrr!!"

Bang!

Like a monster, Breegoria charged forward full of killing intent. But his massive ax hit the ground only.

Bang!

A huge figure was hit at the back by a flying kick and was sent flying like a thrown boulder.

His body skidded on the ground and caused the dust to hover in the air.

With a shocked expression, he slowly pushed his body to get up. He glanced ahead of him and saw that person just landed on the ground.

What—?

The person who had the weakest magical aura could kick like that?! Breegoria could not believe it.

Around them, his men were still squirming on the ground like some worms.

Puzzled by what happened to them, he charged blindly to trample these enemies. The barrage of Hot Needles from the bees was shot at him. But those puny needles were nothing to his hardened skin.

He scoffed and immediately brandished his huge ax in hand towards the person with the weakest Magical

Aura.

However, that person suddenly disappeared from his sight and he was sent flying instead when something hit his back. And his ax clattered a few steps away from him.

Berlin stopped on his feet while looking at his boss with a gaping face. Never did someone was able to knockback Breegoria with bare strength. He looked back at the cause of it. At his front about 25 steps away from him, the person stood in front of his group.

Looking at the expression on their faces, it seemed like they already expected it to happen.

They even have a tired look. 'What's with their confidence look! Do they have any idea who Breegoria is?! He is a 2-star False Path expert!'

He roared inside. After thinking such, Breegoria stood up with bloodshot eyes and dark red energy was oozing from his body.

"Breegoria is serious! He is in his Berserk Mode!" Berlin blurted.

".....Berserk Mode?" Cinder repeated his words.

"Do you know about it Lady Cinder?" Asked Tiafel.

"Hmm….. this ability was most common to the Boarman. Their strength, speed, defense, magical defense, and etcetera will increase!" Cinder said.

After all, Wolfmen was an old rival of Boarman so it was natural to most of the Wolfmen that they would know about it.

Yman twitched his brow. Actually, he was using at least 30% of his real strength in that kick. In truth, he was maintaining his stamina at 30% in a case that he needed to activate his Black Miasma.

Looks like, his 30% strength wasn't enough to defeat this enemy. That guy's defense was fairly high.

And now he could feel his strength had increased. Not good. He could not use his intimidation as it was only effective if the enemy was sane. However, looking at the bloodshot eyes of his enemy. Yman doubted that it would affect him.

'Fufu, isn't it what I'm looking for?' For some reason, instead of worrying, he somehow felt happy to find a strong enemy in front of him.

Before Berlin could react, he was already charred by a [Shapeless Flame] that fired at him.

But before his body completely turned to light particles, he shouted, "Sneaky cheater!" Well, it's not like he could defeat her. But it's rude to kill your enemy without letting him know! Berlin's complaint was heard by them before he disappeared.

"Ha ha ha," Tiafel and the others forced a laugh.

"Well, he is going to die anyway, so what's the difference, fufufu. And besides, I'm just disposing of unnecessary extra," said Cinder with an indifferent face.

"She started to think the same as that person," Tiafel whispered while eyeing Crimson.

*Nod nod!*

*Nod nod!*

The two guys with her nodded their heads.

Then, Ugh gwah argh gyao eek naw! They finished the other enemies who were suffering on the ground. Each of them received quite a sum of points that enabled them to complete their needed points. Looks like those guys were able to gather many points. Now, they only needed to focus on finding the barrier. However, there was a problem.

Gwaaaaaaaaarrrrrrr!!! The frenzy Breegoria shouted after seeing his men turned to light particles one after another.

Woosh! His figure suddenly disappeared after he hopped high in the air.

A big punch was baring towards them but a figure leaped to intercept it.

BANG!

A loud collision of force happened in mid-air.

Thud!

Thud!

They landed on the ground at almost the same time.

Cinder and the others stepped back so as not to distract their fight.

Gwar!

Bang!

Their fists hit each other, then it followed another one.

Against a berserk opponent who lost his sanity but increased all his stats.

Fighting such an opponent was a godsend for him.

Bang bang bang!

'Sistela, how's my CE?' He asked his deity while in a confrontation against his enemy. Both of them sent multiple punches to each other.

Although he was still a level 3, fighting against an opponent that should be at his level could not give him a fair CE because of his high stats in all of his attributes.

This kind of battle and enemy was what he was seeking.

Sistela replied.

Yman grinned further. The more he fought, the more his body will get used to it. Especially the close call fight where his instinct screamed for danger.

In this state, not only his CE will increase, all his attributes too!

The enemy was tall, so Yman had to jump to hit him.

Bang bang bang!

Berserker Breegoria sent frenzy attacks, countless punches flying towards him. Yman chose not to evade it and sent countless punches as well. Whenever their punches met each other it generated a mini shock wave caused by the impact. Subconsciously, Cinder, and the others stepped back again.

"Such power! These two are monsters!" Aegor shouted.

Aegor knew that the Boarman was known for their resilience, the more they were wounded the stronger they became.

However, Crimson was not an ordinary person. They fought together inside the cave. He was the type of person that was difficult to kill even with his weak magical aura.

Noticing that his enemy was still able to retaliate against him, Berserk Breegoria howled strongly.

Yman stepped back a little because of the pressure. He used his hand to cover his face.

When the howl stopped, he was about to charge but Breegoria was already on his face, baring his massive punch towards him.

He clenched his teeth. And hardened his muscle to brace himself while holding his hood. Bang! Ngh!

-2500 Hp

He was hit in the face and was taken by the force that made him stagger back. A good number of health points left his green bar. 'Tsk, that damage though, it's one-fifth of my total HP!' he thought. But the pain wasn't enough to knock out someone like him with a high tolerance of it.

"Eep!" Aegor and the others yelped with a sour face while thinking it must be painful to receive a punch from that muscular arm! Yet that person just staggered a little! Too bad the person who received the punch is someone who can eat it!

If only Aegor knew that person was more concerned with the number than the pain itself.

Heal!

+2500 Hp

Yman whispered as he noticed the enemy's follow-up.

His Healing Spell could heal 25% of his total health points.

A [Hammer Punch] from Breegoria was hastily coming, however, the enemy suddenly disappeared from his sight, and next second.

Bang! Gwar!

-3000 Hp

He felt a piercing pain from his stomach. No, an elbow had dug deeper into it.

Breegoria's eyeballs almost went out, now it was his turn to stagger back again.

He used his Rapid Leap while sending an elbow attack, because of this, the power was multiplied.

If not because of his [Berserk Mode], Breegoria would be wondering why this enemy had so much strength even with his lean figure.
