"So it really was true what grampa said?" the woman said as she looked at the tablet.
She saw the opening of the door and the huge demons swarm inside. She rewound the video multiple times as she watched in shock not at the swarm but at the man who opened the door.
"It really is you grampa so this is the real you."
She was the granddaughter of the previous black general and now black general Uriel the first recorded EX rank hunter in human history. She had short black hair and ruby red eyes she was very toned after practicing since she was young with her grandfather. She was the dream girl of any tomboy lover she held a long black spear in her hand as she looked out into the distant mer.
She walked back into her room and got changed she quickly put on her armor and made sure to properly display her family's insignia.
Uriel was known as the angel of destruction by the public but in the family she was known as the general's princess. Uriel was very attached to her grandfather that at one point he had to make sure she wasn't actually in love with him.
She wasn't but her infatuation with him was not far from love. Since the young age of five, she learned how to fight she was taught how to use the spear and became a grandmaster at it. She later joined the military her training and intelligence made her rise up the ranks quickly even becoming the youngest general of the armies at the age of 25.
Her age was a concern for most people but they couldn't protest when her ability to lead was easily a hundred times better than any general in the world. But soon she retired from the position after the death of her grandfather this Information was not spread and even the world powers didn't know.
Uriel walked towards the command room of the ship her steps made no sound as she walked towards the door. As the door opened she was met with a crowd of people looking at the holo screen showing the door in live time.
She saw small shimmering red runes floating near the door stopping the demons from their advancement. Slowly the runes started to shatter as the horde clawed at the barrier between dimensions.
"We need to speed up activate the drives." Uriel said calmly as she sat on the nearest seat.
"But the drives are still not in working condition if we use them we might end up destroying the ship!" a woman said as she tapped on her tablet.
"Do it we'll be fine but the people of mer won't if we delay," Uriel said as she got into a meditative state.
"IZC-19 activate the drives 6 times." the woman ordered the ship's ai to activate its drives."

"You know this is taking a long ass time look there's even an army behind us now!" Odin complained to omega as he pointed at the huge mechs and hunters behind them.
"Well the more the merrier right it is Christmas after all." omega said.
"It's not even December what are you talking about?" Odin said as he looked at omega with an expressionless look.
"Odin can you tell me where this is and what we are doing here?" the man in white asked.
Odin and omega stared at each other for a seconds before Odins face twisted into anger.
Did you guys really just have a full out argument without even any form of communication the fuck?
'Shut it.'
Odin looked at the door and took out his sword and swung it in one fluid motion. A white light shot out and destroyed the runes releasing the demons into mer.
Omega took out his sword and swung it at Odin who had already left and arrived at the horde of demons.
"We haven't finished tell me how you'll actually change things without complaining!" omega shouted as he ran towards Odin launching multiple magic attacks at him.
The weird scene caused everyone to be stunned the only people that were moving were the ai who started to launch fire at the demons. The weapons did take some demons down but it took an entire cell for the laser weapons to kill them.
The power of a single shot was the same as a anti tank missile each cell had the energy to fire 30 shots. This scene made the hunters to second guess themselves but the mech next to them gave them some hope. But before the mechs could ready themselves to attack the muffled sound of explosions sounded.
In the center of the horde were to men that we're fighting each other. The attacks they launched devastated the area and killed many demons. There were other people near the horde fighting but they didn't do as much damage as the other two.
The hunters felt relieved that at least the two weren't fighting near them if so that would have been an even bigger problem.
"Do you think we can take these guys on?" one of the hunters asked as he looked at the sea of demons.
"Not sure but hey it's not like that dragon we fought before right?" another hunter replied as he took out his weapons and charged into the frontlines.
The other hunter watched the other run into the fire and took out a bow and aimed it at the demon swarm. A small green arrow made of magic appeared and he pulled back the string and let go. The hunter chanted and small blue disc appeared in front of the arrow every time it passed through them it duplicated.
Soon the single arrow became 1000 and they fell on the demons. The power of the arrows was like grenades as they exploded after hitting their targets.
The hunter looked exhausted after using his skill and another hunter came behind him and stopped him from collapsing. The hunter's hand glowed purple as he passed his mana into the archer's body.
"Mana battery?" the archer said as he slowly recovered from his manna exhaustion.
"Not any ordinary mana battery I'm the infinite mana battery kido." the hunter said as he filled the archer's mana bar up.
Mana batteries were special people that could absorb the mana from the air and transfer it into anything. These people could pass pure clean mana into people and restore their mana bar. Unlike magicians, mana batteries couldn't use any spells even if they had higher mana capacity than other magicians.
An average beginner magician had 100 mp and a manna battery had 10000 mp. Out of any hunter they leveled up by transferring mana into other people. The highest level mana battery was a triple s rank hunter said to have over a billion mana points.
The hunter was already 60 but looked no older than 15 the mana he had had kept him youthful like other magicians. He was born to one of the solar colonies he was the son of the solar representative and awoke his powers at the age of five.
As he couldn't use magic he used the mana he absorbed and strengthened his body and started to learn physical combat techniques. Using his mana-enhanced body and weapons techniques he easily rose to SSS rank at the age of 30.
After reaching SSS rank he learned other branches of magic even if he couldn't use them. The only magic he could actually use was formation usage as it didn't require one to have a magi core. With his formation and near infinite mana he went around the world and made barriers to keep the beast in check.
After 30 years after reaching SSS rank he was now close to the EX rank that he learned about from Uriel.
The man slowly moved away from the archer and took out a bow and leaped into the air. the man nocked an arrow that was covered in miniature barrier formations and fired at the demons.
After a long time, the man had learned to fight using formations. Others would not be able to do it as it required a lot of mana to use them and it took some time to set them. But the man with his high mana capacity could use them and have them activate at all times.
Each arrow consumed a 1000mp a second but compared to the near 1 trillion mp he was reaching it was nothing. He also had found an interesting trick and had made a formation around the sun. This and his high absorption made it so he gained more energy than he lost even now he wasn't dropping but rising.

The man was excited to see that he was close to the next rank. He knew that once he reached the next rank he would be able to pick a divine class that was better than the ones s ranks got.
But he was also scared as when he reached s rank he didn't get to pick a class.
