As Asher with his significantly larger followers starts to take over villages easily, the enemies are no longer a problem for Asher; he has reached the capacity of power given to him by his followers.
Asher and his followers control six villages in three days. They must explain how K. gives his blessings and not be scared. All of the followers experience the same nightmare.
A night, a burning village, an eerie atmosphere, a feeling of being watched. People recount how everything feels terrifying; all of their bodies are signaling them to run, that imminent danger is coming. A scream is heard. They then get scared by K. by saying, "Peekaboo."
Asher still does not know why they get scared with such a basic scare.
Asher and his followers start to liberate tens of villages in a week. None of the enemies can even have a chance against Asher, much less his followers reaching the count of one hundred.
…
Ashers's men caught the attention of the leader of the enemies. They are classified as a level two threat, meaning that they can cause some damage, but they aren't strong enough to do anything significant.
…
Asher's followers are staying back to reconstruct their land, leaving only fifty to continue the liberation. Their target is one of the five major cities; liberating it will cause the enemies to pay close attention and might even go all out against them. Asher, knowing all of this, decides to continue fighting.
Uniting his men, he tells them about his plan to liberate the city of Luka, telling how they will go all out and attack as if they try to infiltrate, they won't be able to survive due to the large amount of surveillance.
…
They arrive hiding in the forest, and they see many armed men guarding the entrance. If they all come in at the same time, it will cause a disturbance, so Asher decides to walk up to the entrance to see if there are any weak points to try and enter.
There is a line of five people in front of Asher. Asher starts to look at the large stone walls, seeing them plastered with the symbol of the enemies; Asher finally sees the names of the enemies. They are called Chroma.
Asher can only stare at their crimson banner, with two firearms behind a weapon as their logo. Asher, after waiting, managed to get a clearer view of the city, seeing many armed men protecting the streets. The thing that caught Asher's eyes was the many hiding men on top of the houses; Asher saw that they could use their abilities to cause damage.
Asher finally goes to the front to talk to the armed men. Seeing that they are alerted by his unusual looks, the men grab their weapons, ready to start shooting at any time Asher slips up. Asher considers this, and before even talking, Asher takes out a knife he hid in his pants; before the men can react, Asher slashes their heads in a clean, swift attack, instantly killing them.
No one was behind Asher; he could only see that no one had noticed what had happened. Asher grabs the men's firearm and starts shooting in the air to catch the attention of the people inside.
Asher hears the people running to see what is happening since they always whistle before shooting someone to alert them that an enemy was caught, but now that no whistle was emitted, they know something is wrong.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Asher's men start to come out of the forest, all of them collectible, charging and shooting fireballs.
The walls start to collapse; chaos enters the town, and the people hiding in the shadows start to make their way up the walls to eliminate the threat.
Asher predicted all of this already, positioning himself at the top of the walls to see these men face to face. Asher sees the men in the shadows start to surround him. Asher decided to activate his blessing.
Now emitting his dark orange aura, the rotten smell that he prepared himself to endure was not being emitted by the enemies. Sensing that something is wrong, he decides not to back up and just take them on to buy more time for his men to invade the city.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Asher's men manage to enter the city; the entire atmosphere of the town is covered with a light yellow aura. Asher knows that this is their time to shine; he decides to sit down.
The men surrounding him are very confused, but they decide that one of them should attack; they know that something wrong is going to happen.
Slash!
Asher cleanly cuts the head of the one charging at him. The men all get alerted but stay relatively calm. Asher is surprised by this reaction.
Slash
"How are you alive?" The man he just decapitated stabbed him in his back. Asher, with his strength, could still fight the men, and for his injuries to heal, he decided to go and attack before they did anything else.
Asher feels weaker compared to his fight with the other enemies; Asher realizes that the more they smell of rotten meat, the stronger he gets; however, they don't smell horrendous, rendering him weaker.
Slash, Slash, Slash
Asher starts to cut the men up only for them to get up. Asher finally understands that the reason that they don't produce a smell is that they are clones of another person.
Asher needs the maker of the clones and eliminates him before it's too late.
Bling
Perfect. Asher sees something hiding in the shadows, looking directly at him. A small miscalculation of their binoculars revealed their position. Asher decides to capitalize on this mistake.
Asher retreats, having the eight clones in front of him. Asher grabs one of the hidden knives in his pocket and calculates the distance and the speed necessary for his knife to reach. Asher does a backflip to distract the enemy, and at the highest point, he takes out his knife, now infused with his power, and throws it.
Slash!
Asher manages to make a near-perfect hit, hitting the clone maker on his neck, and leaving him to die.
Boom!!!
YAY!!!
Asher looks down to see that the city has fallen to his army.
"We did it!!! Everyone goes and destroys anything relating to Chroma!! And especially let's free the people.
…
Asher, at the celebratory party at night, starts to smell a putrid smell in between his people; he gets alerted and decides to carefully, Asher sees a man celebrating with them who appears to be similar to the rest of the people.
Asher goes back to tell Dalia to pay attention to the man, sensing that it's most likely a mole that is going to be relying on information.
Asher starts to think about what to do, thinking if he kills the man before he releases their information, tortures the man to reveal information, or feeds him fake information and only shares the correct information with his siblings, who are far stronger than the rest of the people.
Asher sees Dalia coming closer to whisper in his ear.
"Yeah, I smell it, and I saw a small little device as he left the crowd. He is a mole. We should kill him." Dalia, looking around, tells Asher.
"Don't worry; I have a plan for what to do; all you have to do is act normal and let me take care of this." Asher grabs a plate of meat and gives it to Dalia to act more normal.
