Angel Monarch

Sera was very angry and wanted to kill the man named Luke. She knew it was an over reaction, but didn't care. As Sera was about to attack him suddenly Bea took her off guard, but Sera immediately understood what she wanted.

'This is going to be so funny!'

"Hello everyone, my name is Seraphine. I'm 18 years old, the last survivor of Newber, the first monster I killed was a Horror of the 3rd Tier, since then I killed dozens of monsters and I made the journey from Newber to here alone."

Everyone was stupefied by that, even Bea was surprised which confused her a bit.

'She already knew these informations why is she so shocked? Is she pretending for some reason?'

The girl named Lucy was the first to recover.

"So you are probably the strongest Evolved ever, please tell me you are here to help us."

Sera understood her concern. They weren't able to take on their enemy alone, so they could use the help.

"Of course, after what those fuckers tried to do, this story will only end with their death."

Next one to speak was Luke, he looked very scared. Good!

"Uhm... I'm sorry if-if I insulted you. Please don't kill me."

Sera wasn't angry at all about him anymore, but she could still have some fun.

"Hmm, I will think about it."

Everyone laughed at that, except Luke who looked deathly pale.

"Oh I also forgot, I already unlocked my first Heritage."

That got disturbed looks out of everyone. Lucy was drinking something but after hearing Sera she spat in Clockwork's face, who was very mad at her. Even Bea didn't expect that.

'Oh my god, I can't hold it in any longer.'

She began dying of laughter. Everyone was just looking at her like she is an impossibility, like she shouldn't exist.

After several minutes of that, all of them started to snap back to reality. Lucy was the first to speak again.

'Her self control was really good, the only one better was Will but he seems to hate speaking or something.'

"So... Just let me ask you this quickly... Are you fucking with us?"

Instead of answering she only summoned and spread her wings and made them glow with a small amount of light. They looked holy.

"I guess that's a no. Well, I certainly am happy that you are here for tomorrow." Lucy smiled but it was quite strained.

'Bea finally came back to her senses. But why does it seem like she can't look at me and did I imagine that or is her face a bit flustered.'

Bea began the main event, figuring out a way to win tomorrows battle.

"So, now that we all know each other, let's start the main topic. Tomorrow our enemy Nightmare, sent his most deadly lieutenant and 70 other troops, 10 Evolved and 60 regular soldiers, all of them fully kitted out. The question is how do we survive tomorrow."

Lucy spoke first yet again.

"As I was saying before, we should prepare an ambush by luring monsters to take care of them."

Clockwork immediately went against her.

"And as I was saying, they know the city just as good. They won't fall for an ambush."

Before the argument escalated further, Will of all people cut in.

"Seraphine, what do you think?"

After thinking for a while she said.

"I can't answer that question without more information. How many troops do we have, what is the lieutenant and the other Evolved's power?"

Lucy answered her.

"We have us 7 and about 20 regulars that we can kit out. As for the enemy, we don't know who the 10 Evolved are, but we know the lieutenant pretty well. His name is Deathbringer and with his transformation he could kill most people and monsters with ease."

Bea continued.

"Nothing below a Corrupted can survive him probably. His transformation makes him able to imbue any weapon with some kind of decay. If it cuts you, that is a death sentence. Starting from the cut your whole body will start to decay and die."

With that everyone became absorbed in their thoughts. After a while Sera was the first to speak.

"So, you are saying they outnumber us 3:1 and if their leader cuts us we die? Okay, my next question is what are our powers? I go first, my wings can inspire allies and cause fear within enemies, it can even affect Rottens to some extent. I can also summon light and see in any brightness. And I have a weapon and clothing item, each with their own quirks. So, what about you?"

Sera forgot that what she said was amazing. So, she didn't understand why everyone stared at her.

"What?"

Lucy answered still stupefied when she said.

"Why am I even surprised about you anymore. Huhh... Anyway I can turn into a big eagle and I can see in multiple spectrums like infrared and can see in the dark, also I can zoom in with my eyesight. I have two daggers for weapons and an armor, all of them items of course. Clockwork you're up next."

Clockwork probably killed Lucy for a hundred times with his eyes already.

"Fine, my ability can't really help in battle. I can see through technology and learn how to control them on a very basic level. My transformation is a clockwork golem which I haven't really figured out. As for items I gave my only one to Killshot."

With that, Clockwork stopped speaking and Luke began.

"My power is pretty simple, I can see any enemy weak points and my transformation is actually not transforming me at all. I can transform bullets into whatever kind I need at the moment explosive, incendiary, armor piercing you name it. My items are an armor and a weapon which is a rifle, that's what Clockwork gave me. And I'm still in his debt because of it."

The next was Witchdoctor.

"I'm simple as well I can see if you get hurt and I can heal most wounds even to the soul to some extent. And I can put hexes on people or monsters those can cause nausea, wild rage or even take away someone's ability to heal. As for items, I'm running dry."

Will came next and his was as short of an explanation as they came.

"I can summon and control water on a small scale also can turn into a water beast and I have a shield and spear for items."

With him done everyone looked at Bea.

"Guess I'm left. My transformation and ability are intertwined they both give me control over nature to some degree. Which means I can control plants and heal if necessary. I have an armor and a sword for items."

Sera looked at her with scrutinizing eyes.

'She is hiding something, it is pretty obvious but everyone ignored it. Let's not worry about it for now.'

Ignoring Bea's weird behavior she smiled and said: "Okay, we can do something with that."
