An Extra’s POV

'Alright. I've taken care of most of them on this end, so I think I'll go for the Archers next.'

Rey's thoughts were a constant flowing stream, the same as his body, as he darted towards the direction of the Skeleton Archers in the rear.

His blade was in his hand, and he could easily extend it to cut even more Monsters, but he wasn't doing that.

They weren't worth any EXP to him, so he left them for the fodder who badly needed it.

Even his two Skeleton Knights were killed by Esme through her use of the Lightning Elemental attribute, though he made it seem like it was him.

'The goal is to make her stronger. It would be better if she was actively participating in the fight, but…'

Esme had to stay on defense. If she didn't, so many people would die.

'That's why I better handle all the Archers. At least, somehow disable them so she can finish them off and then join the fight full-time.'

There were over three-thousand Archers. He could easily cut them all down in seconds if he used the full power of his [Ascended Godspeed], but for the sake of keeping his power in check, he chose to go with about three minutes.

"Huu… let's go!"

~ZZZTZZZZZ!~

He began his race, cutting their limbs so they couldn't fire arrows, and their legs, so they couldn't walk.

EXP went to the one who had the last kill, so all Esme had to do now was strike their heads, and all the EXP would be as good as hers.

'I doubt C-Tier Monsters would do much for her, but in such a large quantity, it should be fine.'

~WHOOSH!~

His blurring body raced past even more Skeleton Archers, disabling them just as easily as before. Other Adventurers were already showing signs of exhaustion, but he really didn't feel anything.
