The male Asura's expression changed greatly. He looked in the direction his partner had left in with a perplexed expression.
'What could have garnered her attention?' he wondered if he should chase after her, after all, he was supposed to be her guardian.
'There is no need.' he shook his head with a wry smile, 'she is far stronger than me.'
'Besides...' Turning to the wounded werewolves sprawled on the ground around him, a maniacal grin lit his face, 'I still need to finish them off.'
Looking at the wounded Brandon who was still trying to raise himself from the ground, the male Asura smiled, "I will leave you for the last. I want you to enjoy watching me killing your mates without being able to do a thing."
While the Asuras were overbearing in their actions, they were not necessarily wicked. At least, not to the level of this particular Asura. It was just that among his people, his talent was sub-par and he was usually bullied. And since the Asura race didn't have much interest in the secret realm, as the main attraction was the tree of infinite resources, TIR, which was useless to Ki cultivators, he had used that opportunity to volunteer to enter the secret realm. His request was accepted easily as he didn't have any competition in the first place.
But what surprised him was when someone of high status among his people also requested to follow him.
Shaking his head, the male Asura decided to discard any thoughts about the female Asura as she was far above his level.
Arriving before a fallen werewolf, he spoke with a devilish smile, "So this is how they feel when they bully me, huh?"
"No!" Brandon groaned out weakly.
Ignoring his shout, the male Asura raised his leg to finish the unconscious werewolf, as he remained oblivious to the small party around the outskirts of the hundred-meter crater they were in.
"Let's join hands to deal with the Asura race!"
Eleanor suddenly proposed to Landon, who looked at her with widened eyes. Reading his thoughts, Eleanor continued, "The Asuras are just that terrifying."
"But you should be able to handle him easily." Landon refuted.
"I know," she nodded her head in agreement before she continued, "But I am not sure I can handle her."
"What do you mean? Do you know her?"
"I am not sure..." she whispered as she shifted her eyes from him to the direction the female Asura had left in, 'But if she is who I think she is, then we would all be in her mercy."
Seeing the Solemn look on her fairy-like face, Landon's expression changed several times as he became conflicted.
"But why should I trust you? You know..."
"Because we have no intention of harming you. At least, until we get to the TIR." Eleanor cut him off before he could finish.
After pondering deeply for a moment, Landon nodded his head slowly.
It was then that the male Asura raised his leg to finish the werewolf off, "Let's save the werewolves. We might need their help to restrain the female Asura."
Landon's face turned grave as he agreed silently. He knew just how terrifying the Elves were among the myriad worlds, not to mention their members of royal blood. So, for such a person to plan so much before acting against just one person made him feel alarmed.
"Also we need to kill him as smoothly and quickly as possible. I don't need to remind you how terrifying an angry Asura could become."
Without any hesitation, Landon steeled his heart before releasing a soul attack.
His spiritual energy spread out from his body as an invisible wave diffused into his surroundings.
The male Asura smashed his leg down as the air made slicing sounds.
However, the leg that seemed to slice the air apart stopped abruptly a hair breath from the unconscious wolf's head, and the most extraordinary thing was that all the force the leg carried disappeared without any sign.
The male Asura's eyes lost any sign of consciousness.
*Shruuuuuuuu!*
Brandon's eyes widened when he saw a swarm of bats flutter at such a high speed and barely three seconds later, they arrived in front of the male Asura before enveloping the unconscious werewolf underneath his foot.
It was then that the flying eagle noticed the situation and released an angry cry.
With the help of the connection with his summon, the male Asura broke out of his listless state after five seconds.

A feeling of anger welled up within him, causing the blood-red aura dissipating around him to stabilize once more before taking a darker shade.
"WHO DARES TO..." The male Asura erupted in anger only for him to shut his mouth abruptly.
Five storms made from fire, water, wind, darkness, and sand drew towards him from every direction causing his expression to change. From a gap between the firestorm and windstorm, he could see a girl so perfect that her natural beauty even surpassed that of the female Asura. There was a little fairy raising her hand as it flew above her head.
But while the Elvish princess was more beautiful, she couldn't compare to the Asura in seductive charm.
The storms flashed around him and were about to swallow him whole. The silver eagle released an anxious cry as it sensed death near its master. It dived down from the sky to help its master only for it to stop as hundreds of flying swords blocked its path.
The male Asura gathered all his strength before sending five punches at each storm.
*Boooom!*
*Boooom!*
*Boooom!*
*Boooom!*
*Booooom!*
Surprisingly, the five entrenching storms made from different elements stopped for merely a moment before swallowing the shockwaves generated by his immense power.
Soon later, they continued closing on him.
The male Asura's eyes widened in surprise. He finally understood that he had found his match.
"Return!" he shouted hurriedly.
The silver eagle that was dodging the barrage of countless swords suddenly disappeared before the bird seal on the back of the Asura's hand lit up.
"Secret technique: Man and summon!"
The five storms finally swallowed him whole.
The firestorms seemed to merge and balance under the control of Eleanor's elemental and soon after, a storm made from five different elements rose high up into the sky.
A strong pulling force covered the hundred-meter crater in which the storm was brewing before shifting out into the surroundings.
The trees were uprooted and the vegetations were pulled into the storm.
Eleanor's clothes made a flapping sound from the fierce wind. A dark light flashed beside her before Landon appeared with a pale face.
'Thank goodness I didn't face her!' he was truly scared by Eleanor's fierce display of force and knew that he wasn't her match at all. He also knew that she was yet to display her full strength as he could see she wasn't using her ice element.
Landon moved his eyes to see the five-hundred-meter clearing that had been created from the fierce pull of the raging storm and was still increasing.
He saw several beasts pulled into the air forcefully from the powerful suction force and couldn't help but question why there were so many beasts close to them. But soon after, his thoughts shifted to a more pressing matter.
'Hopefully, they have moved far behind!'
From their short and quick plan, he and Eleanor were to kill the Asura in the shortest time possible while the others were tasked to save the fallen werewolves and redraw to a safe distance. The werewolves were in no condition to be included in such a terrifying battle.
Landon who had been pondering about his member's well-being was pulled out of his thoughts by Eleanor's words:
"It seems I will have to get a little serious! The Asuras are truly worthy of the title of the strongest!"
Landon didn't understand her words until...
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
A huge explosion resounded from deep within the raging storm, and the multicolored storm standing mightily at almost two thousand meters high was ripped apart by the crushing force.
A huge shockwave spread out into the surroundings.
Even Landon who was able to resist the terrifying pull of the storm was knocked backward for several meters as his feet made two trenches on the ground.
Landon removed the hands protecting his face from the fierce winds and what he saw made his eyes widen. He felt his mind greatly hit and affected by the virtual impact of what was happening.
There, at the center of the previous storm was the red-skinned Asura gasping with a bloodied face. Two silver wings were sprouting out of his back, and the blood-red aura covering him had now increased by at least three times.
However, that wasn't what made Landon so shocked, as even the now free yet bloodied Asura's eyes also appeared shaken.
While Landon was pushed far back from the shockwave, Eleanor remained unaffected at her original position with a light blue barrier protecting her.
The little elemental flying above her head had disappeared, and instead, the image of a female fairy 30m high with four flapping wings on her back appeared behind Eleanor.
As her body was pulled from the ground to the head section of the massive body, Eleanor's beautiful voice drifted into the ears of the shaken Landon and Asura:
"Unseal: Elemental queen!"
Arriving at the head region, Eleanor raised her fair left hand, causing the huge image to mirror her action.
A white light exploded from the big hand of the Queen elemental as ice essence gathered to form a bow. Eleanor raised her second hand and took a shooting stance.
Ice energy exploded from the second hand of the Queen elemental as an arrow made from pure ice with runic patterns lining its body appeared in it.
Soon after, the arrow was knocked into the bow and a blinding red light exploded as unnatural lightning crackled across it.
Only then did the Asura who had been shocked by what was happening react.
He had combined with his summon and used up every bit of his energy to escape the fierce storms. But he never imagined he would still be soon placed in a more perilous situation.
While the Asura bloodline's unique ability 'Frenzy' granted them unlimited power theoretically, the truth was that he still needed energy as a base to sustain it. Energy, that was subconsciously used up to regenerate his body that was almost shredded into pieces by the terrifying storms.
He knew this attack that was coming was at least two times stronger than the previous storms.
How could he survive such an attack, especially in his current condition?
Without any hesitation, the Asura gathered all the strength he could muster and shouted for dear life.
"ZARA!"
A blinding light exploded as the released arrow streaked across the area with almost no sound before arriving before the flustered male Asura.
Just when the Asura thought he would die...
A massive axe fell from the sky before slicing the approaching arrow into two. The male Asura's ears exploded as the split arrow passed beside him before flying into the distance.
A brief moment later:
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
Blinding light exploded in the distance as red lightning raged into the sky. The entire third zone shook from the explosion and several bird-like beasts flew into the sky in horror.
The male Asura who had a happy expression on his face from escaping death's door suddenly paled when he found out that the person who rescued him wasn't his partner. In fact, his hero wasn't even human at all.
*Bam!* "Bam!* *Bam!*
The sound of footsteps that shook the ground for several meters resounded in the now quiet area.
The male Asura, Eleanor, and Landon shifted their eyes to the new arrival.
"My name is Tron!" A deep voice overflowing with power and authority drifted into their ears.
"I hear you humans like to share names before killing. Magnanimously, I permit you to do so."
