A group of boys walked through the portal with a teenager that had auburn hair in front.

"This is it guys, we're now in a free world. Let's see if we can catch those bastards. This time, they won't be making it out alive." Darwin said as he rotated his arms a few times with a scowl on his face.

Somewhere far north of their location...

"What'd you think we should do first Amy?" A student asked amongst the group of girls that seemed to have just arrived.

"Well I don't know, it's my first time here anyway. I think Alice should be the team leader here." Amy said while looking towards Alice's direction.

The girl who spoke earlier nodded with understanding. She had pink hair and a shapely figure. She was clad in a dark battlesuit that had pink lines running through it. Which complimented her pink eyes well. Her aura and bearing was of someone who came from a rich and prominent background.

'Maybe she's from one of the families.' Amy thought as she stole a glance at her.

The fourth member of the group was a brunette with dark eyes, she wore simple light armour with a fox mask on her face with a sword sheathed by her side.

"Yes Alice, of course, so what'd you think?" The pink haired girl said looking at Alice who just sighed and looked south.

"We need to find high ground and make camp before it gets dark. We don't want to be out here when it's dark." Alice said with a tone of foreboding and the group started moving south.

"This is one interesting planet we're on." Axel's voice rang out from the forest as the group made their way through the forest to a nearby mountain.

"What'd  you mean Axel?" Jim asked his curiosity piqued.

"Look, everything's weird. First the days seem awfully longer compared to earth. It lasts for as long as 63 hours, worse part, night's even longer." Axel explained.

"How's that even possible?" Phil asked.

"Well, I don't know." Axel replied with a shrug.

"Wait so that means we'll probably be staying here longer than a week?" Jim asked worriedly.

"Yeah, and always keep your eyes open or you're all gonna become that wolf's dinner." Denok was the one who spoke this time as he stopped in his tracks.

"Huh?" Axel, Phil and Jim said simultaneously.

Looking ahead, they saw a dark furred wolf that stood about two meters tall with eyes that emitted a strong killing intent.

They immediately stopped.

"It's probably a D rank beast." Axel mummured while unsheathing his sword. Phil ran to a nearby tree and quickly started climbing. The wolf howled into the air before charging at the group.

"Stay back." Denok said while stepping in front of him before pulling out a long hammer from his storage ring the hammer was almost two meters long and was red in colour with a crest of a dragon with a sword through it engraved at the top.

'M-Tech.' Jim muttered as he watched Denok charge towards the wolf head-on.

BAM!

The sound of collision rang out as flames spread out from Denok's hammer as it made contact with the wolf. Axel who was following closely behind Denok lashed out with a strike with his sword slashing it by the side easily.

The wolf stumbled backwards bleeding from the cut while looking at the duo with wary eyes the next second.

AWOOO!

The wolf howled into the air.

"Shit!" Axel exclaimed as he prepared to dash forward but before he could move.

SWOOSH!

An arrow cut through the air with incredible speed piercing the hard of the wolf instantly killing it.

"Haha! Need me to save your sorry ass again Axel?" Phil gloated from the tree he was currently hiding making Axel turn beet red from anger.

"You bastard! I'll kill you once this is all over. Just you wait." He said the last part silently.
"Oh yeah? I'd like to see your weak ass try." Phil replied with a laugh while Axel completely ignored him as he looked around the forest cautiously he knew it was pointless to exchange words with Phil,he would always lose.

The wolf had called for help before it died which could only mean more wolves would arrive here soon.

"Hey, um... shouldn't we be... You know, running?" Jim said nervously from behind while Axel shook his head.

"Compared to the beasts of the forest these wolves are comparatively easy to deal with, we better get as much points as possible from them." Just as Axel finished explaining, two more wolves appeared from the forest. When they saw their dead comrade, they let out a howl before charging at the group.

SWOOSH!

An arrow made of wind struck the ground where the first wolf was about to step on making it pause a little before Axel pounced on it while Denok faced the other bashing it non-stop with his giant hammer. It was almost like he was toying with the wolf.

"Why don't you just burn that bow and pick up a sword already!" Axel who was having a harder time compared to Denok yelled after Phil missed another shot.

"Oh I just love it when you suffer." Phil's mocking voice came from above.

'wait, is he doing this on purpose!?' Axel thought angrily as he leaned backwards evading a claw from the wolf before slashing the outstretched hand before an arrow finally pierced the head.

"Oh don't worry you can grovel at my feet in appreciation later." Phil's mocking voice came again making Axel want to explode from rage.

Jim just watched amused by the whole scenario as it played out before him.

Denok had finished dealing with his own opponent and when Jim looked at what remained of the wolf he couldn't help but shudder in disbelief. The wolf was reduced nothing but meat paste. It was barely even recognizable anymore.

"Well that's done." Denok said as he dismissed his hammer and Phil climbed down from the tree with a smirk on his face.

"Alright now you can grovel." He said while throwing a look at Axel whose eyebrow twitched before chasing after Phil who immediately climbed back up the tree with astonishing speed.

"Come down here if you're a man!" Axel yelled.

"I'm more man than your sorry ass would ever be! Now grovel!"
