Zane Skyler was sleeping at his base, having extinguished the fire to avoid attracting any attention from others or monsters. Suddenly, he was jolted awake by a loud voice.
"Hey! Wake up, you idiot!" As Zane's mind cleared, he recognized that it was Alagor shouting in his head.
Zane got up immediately, still hearing Alagor's cursing echoing in his mind. He looked around and saw three students approaching his base.
"It looks like they've teamed up," Zane thought, his enhanced vision allowing him to see clearly in the dark. The moonlight filtered through the trees, casting just enough light for his eyes to pick up the intruders' movements without them noticing him.
"Only weak people go in groups to fight or for surviving," Alagor said smugly.
"Everyone's not as powerful as you," Zane complained.
"Hmph, of course, I am strong. You lowlifes can't compare yourselves to me," Alagor replied in a proud tone.
