-145363 The massive damage instantly melted the once-arrogant Elite Boss. The sudden turn of events left everyone frozen in shock. All of them instinctively turned toward the direction from which the dragon's breath had fallen. In the sky, they saw a small figure pierced through the darkness like a beam of light. Although they weren't entirely sure what it was, they guessed it seemed to be a baby dragon as they judged from its shape. "Rawr!" Before it even landed, a baby dragon's cry echoed. Immediately, all the eerie creatures nearby fell into a stunned state. The tiny, adorable creature then flashed forward, weaving between the eerie creatures with lightning-fast movements. Its sharp claws sliced through the air, leaving white arcs trailing behind. Wherever it passed, explosions of serious damage erupted, cutting down the eerie creatures that had driven them to near death as easily as slicing a piece of cake. Before the group could even react, an empty zone had been cleared around them. They were safe. The crushing pressure vanished in an instant. BigBadGale touched all over his own body in disbelief. Greenwhisper's expression became complicated. Vanessa's eyes lit up with dazzling excitement. She felt as if God had heard her prayer. "Gray, let's go." A deep voice rang out. As everyone looked toward the source of the sound, they saw a figure approaching. "Legendary Nighthale?" Vanessa froze when she recognized who he was. Then, she immediately understood that it wasn't God who responded to her prayers, but Nighthale, the mysterious No. 1 on Leaderboard. "Thank you." Greenwhisper took a deep breath. Words couldn't express what they felt at that moment. They had been on the brink of death, yet this man had pulled them back from the abyss. "From now on, if there's anything you need, I…" Before he could finish his words, Aiden interrupted, "What did you just say?" Hearing his words, Greenwhisper was stunned. "If you need any help?" Aiden shook his head. "No. The sentence before that." "Than…" Greenwhisper froze stiff in embarrassment. The others were at a loss for words when they realized what Aiden cared about. Greenwhisper regained his composure and bowed deeply toward Aiden. Then, he said earnestly, "I didn't mean it like that. Anyway, if you ever need me, I'll help you without hesitation!" "Me too! I will listen to every request you have." Vanessa immediately followed with a bow. The other two also chimed in. "I'd face them even at the cost of death!""I'd give up my life if needed!" Then, BigBadGale said, "We'll save… No, that's not it. I'll repay your kindness… That's not it either." Hearing his words, the others were speechless. In the end, BigBadGale said, "Same here!" "No need for that. I was just passing by. Oh, by the way, Westhand is relatively safer now. If you don't plan to continue farming Elite Bosses, you can head that way." Aiden waved casually and turned to leave with Gray bouncing happily behind him. The group watched Aiden and the dragon slowly disappear into the distance, unable to recover for a long time. Only after Aiden fully vanished from sight did BigBadGale sigh and say, "No wonder he is the number one on the leaderboard. He is absurdly strong. From today on, the Legendary Nighthale is my idol." "Look at you acting pathetic." Vanessa huffed as she healed Gale. "He saved your life, and all you could say was 'same here.'" BigBadGale retorted confidently, "So what? I didn't know what to say. Plus, don't think I didn't see you practically ogling over him!""Hmph! That's none of your business!" "Alright, enough. Pick up the equipment and items, and let's head to Westhand." Greenwhisper laughed. Although his team was always bickering, he was grateful to have them by his side. "Alright, you make the call," BigBadGale said while swinging his arms, feeling the pain fade. "D*mn, those weird monsters caused actual pain when they attacked us. It's way too scary. I really don't know how Legendary Nighthale handles it." Greenwhisper shook his head and said, "Does he even need to handle it? He just steamrolls everything. Unlike us, I bet he doesn't even take these creatures seriously." "True." BigBadGale nodded. "He even asked if we still wanted to keep farming Elite Bosses. I mean, who would ask something like that? Wait… Don't tell me he actually sees Elite Bosses as small mobs?" His words stunned everyone, and they collectively fell silent.
