Chapter 4 - Beast 02

Arca stood shellshocked at the sight before her as she just was not able to fully understand the sight before her eyes. She even rubbed them to confirm that she was not just seeing things or if this was merely a trick that her eyes were playing on her. There was no they could be here not after what happened after all. She still recalls how they had left them there as per the plan that was the entire purpose for them to even form that group in the first place. Her mind just was not able to process it all properly

Also, she could not believe that she was considered as part of the weakling duo in the Rotune group. It just was not something that she wanted to accept. She played her role as the group attacker after all as….

"You were doing the least amount of damage when not counting me. Sure you were always on the frontline attacking but when did you ever take anything down on your own after we left the middle area? Even before that, you struggled" the human member of Rotune said.

That...that might have been true but there was a good reason for that as it was decided that her role would be more of someone that created an opening and dealt with the enemies they encounter in a manner that sync up better with their party after all

"That's because you said I did not need to take anything down on my own after that as the other two were doing enough damage to make up for it" she exclaimed

"Of course and that would make sense..." he started to say before getting interrupted

"See I…" Arca started to say before this time she was the one who interrupted

This human before her was their leader in the image of Rotune they wanted to show off to him and the general public at least. Though he did turn out to be the real deal when it came to combat and again managing to sync of all their strengths and weakness to make so they were always performing at their peak at least. That's why they were all getting praised like they were the three of them after they had betrayed him that is.

"If Rotune lived up to high expectations that the two of us...make that just me as you might have been slightly different than the other two in one manner. You really did not hold our group to the lofty ideals that it was supposed to be on paper except for when we were in combat. Unlike the other two, they played me completely as they did not see things that way inside or outside of combat. Thus in the world that we live in rather than the one you were tricked into thinking was one that never really existed, thus similar to me in that sense, you are a failure as well" he said standing over her.

As he stood over her that when she felt her legs buckle as for some reason she could no longer remain standing as it was almost like...

"That time in the middle area where you were frozen dead in your tracks and needed to be saved by our group's tank and mage," the human told her "I did not notice it at the time but now I see what those two had all along as they really were playing us both as we were both some naive for similar reasons," he said

Arca was on the ground her legs useless as she was not sure why she was not able to move or why her legs had buckled so suddenly

"An attacker that can not take this a moment of killing intent and even lets an even the tank out damage them. 'Are you serious' is what most people with the accepted common sense of this world would say. Even humans would say the same thing as you are no attacker at least by beast standards. Human standards maybe but you would lose to even a human master that focuses on pure strength and raw power" he said.

"There is a good reason why you have seemingly the lowest raw attack power amongst the beast," he told her

When he looked at her he noticed something interesting that left him in shock at the sight before him.

Arca's eyes had rolled up into her head as she lay there on the ground with a puddle forming around her butt getting her tail wet in the process.

"Seriously given how the two of us were at the time and now you still are currently. If we were more than a party in name only and truly worked together as one. Then we could have been a great traditional team a little....no unorthodox but a ton. Yet we would have taken the world by storm not that we still won't. It just will not be in the traditional way" he said with a sigh

Attackers should not have had to worry about things like that since their role was attacking. These things that Arca thought were supposed to be at the level she thought she was at. It turned out to be nothing more than things Arca thought she was at herself and no one ever bothers correcting her. In reality, they would still be left standing and even about to attack him as a result of them being hit with that much killing intent. Just a marvel at how much the other two were able to keep it all directed at them so that Arca never felt it directly herself after that first time.

Arca was then dragged away by her arms as he had plans for not just her but the entire group. He was just starting with her because things between them were more personal and he held a bigger grudge against her than the other two members of Rotune.
