Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

"Hahaha!! It will be fun! Haha." Aetherius laughed out loud as soon as Arya finished explaining the plan or strategy they would use to clear the last monster wave.

Whereas, Rohan who was against not using the wall plan, was silent or to be specific he didn't have anything to say, against it. But in his mind, he was laughing like a madman, Since the new plan was actually good for his plans later.

"Ok!! Let's get into action, we don't know when the monster wave will start, so we should complete all the preparation before it commences." Arya said and they started to make all the necessary arrangements.

During his previous life, he got to know about the trials of the red gate from Aetherius, since he was one of the few who actually cleared the gate. But he didn't know how he cleared it, as all he said was he fought to no end and even his teammates died during the trial.

So, Arya had to think of a way to clear the trial himself.

It took them around three to four hours to complete all their preparation after they waited for a little more time, and finally, the final monster wave started.

*Gaahh!!*

*Gaahh!!*

Ghouls, Ghouls from all sides, were coming out of the forest, there was an uncountable number of them. Arya, Aetherius, and Rohan watched as the starting ghouls reached the 1 km mark, then 500 hundred but these three didn't take any action.

But as soon as they reached the hundred-meter mark, Arya signaled Aetherius and Aetherius pressed a button on a small box while grinning.

*Boooom*

*Boooom*

*Boooom*

Explosions, in a radius of 500m with the tower as the center. Some explosions obliterated the ghoul army. Both Arya and Aetherius have a ton of points they earned during the whole tutorial.

And using the points they bought land mines, that they planted all around the area around them at regular intervals, and as soon they ghoul reached the area. They blasted the bomb.

As soon as the bomb exploded, they killed all the ghouls around them, which also included the Red Ghouls present in the monster wave, they too exploded and started the second round of explosions.

These two rounds of explosions killed a large chunk of the Ghoul army.

"Aetherius, Rohan let's go!" Arya said to both of his teammates, as now the second phase of their plan will Start.

Ten days ago, when they first arrived in this tutorial, Rohan was very low level. So, both Arya and Aetherius had to do all the work of killing the Ghouls, while Rohan just had to kill the few that slipped past. But now even he is at level 23, and his strength is Higher than the regular level 23 because of the free stats he got in the trial.

So, today he will also play on the front, and even if a few ghouls gang up on him, he with his high agility can easily dispose of them.

Though both Arya and Aetherius knew this they still observed Rohan, till he killed those ghouls, and once they believed he could easily pull his weight. They started focusing back on their fights.

Arya and Aetherius were very high level right now, Arya was level 31 and Aetherius was level 27. And not just that they even had higher stats than the normal one.

Aetherius had put his extra stats in his constitution and strength whereas Arya distributed his stats equally among all the stats, and there is a reason for that, as after completing the tutorial trial. The person goes under a baptism.

The baptism rewards the person based on their performance in the trial, their innate talent, their potential, etc. But there is one more thing that many people are not aware of, it's called the hidden pieces.

And in three years, one of the guys who took the trial would fulfill the condition and receive a reward that put him on par with strong people, and the reason Arya knew about all this is, that guy himself boasted about this in an interview. And told that no one else could get it since it was a first come first serve policy.

He said that he distributed his stats equally among all the stats, which people hear about will mock him since different classes need different stats assignments. And distribution of the stats will not allow him to Excel in whichever class he chooses.

But this arrangement got registered during the baptism and triggered a hidden piece, called the 'Golden Ratio'. Which made him rise above the masses.

When Arya was about to assign his stats, remembered the guy and decided to go with the equal distribution to get the 'Golden Ratio' during the baptism.

As the landmines killed large chunks of the ghouls, it made their fight very easy, though Rohan faced a little difficulty. But it was nothing major, and they easily killed the ghouls.

As they were fighting, Arya and Aetherius didn't notice but Rohan was moving backward little by little towards the tower while killing the ghouls.

And now only a few ghouls were remaining, and the boss was still not here, this confused Aetherius but before he inquired with his teammates

Rohan acted, "Ooi, You selfish bastards!!" He shouted while standing on the tower towards both Arya and Aetherius.

This sudden shout attracted the attention of both Arya and Aetherius who were just about to finish their share of ghouls. And they turned around to look back at Rohan.

"Hahahaha Hahahaha!!" He laughed like a madman, while the ghouls he was supposed to fight were moving towards the tower.

Seeing the confusion on their face, he becomes happy, but not enough he needs more. He wants them to beg, he wants them to show an expression similar to the guy he tortured for essence.

So, he pointed his dagger at the stone present on the tower that they had to defend and said, "Tell me, Arya, Aetherius should I destroy the crystal?! Huh? tell me?!"

"What's gotten into you, Rohan? Why are you doing this?! And why know! If you destroy it we all will die! So, why?!" Aetherius asked Rohan as he was genuinely concerned he thought of both Arya and Rohan as his comrades and friends.

"Why you ask, haha! Because I want to, can you stop me?! No right!! Haha." Rohan laughed and mocked Aetherius as he scratched the stone with his dagger to get under Arya and Aetherius's skin.

While all this was happening, Arya didn't utter a single word and looked at the sky, and then back at Rohan.

Seeing he didn't get any reply from Arya, Rohan decided to mock him more to get a reply from him," Oii, Arya what happened, haha! Cat got your tongue, where is your cockiness?! Why don't you try to stop me?! Haha."

Seeing the act of Rohan, Arya just smiled and pointed toward the sky, or more specifically the sun. Seeing him point upward both Aetherius and Rohan subconsciously looked up.

And they noticed the sun was just above their head, directly in the middle of the sky.
