In the middle of this forest stood Alex surrounded by twelve orcs wielding various weapons mostly clubs, their level was around 120.
Even while being surrounded by powerful enemies that could terrorize even a powerful Demigod, the Black prince was pretty calm, no he was wearing a thin smile at the moment, meaning he was excited and was about to go on a rampage.
Facing this weird human that kept giving them a feeling of extreme danger, the leader of this scout ordered its subordinates to attack simultaneously to overpower their enemy, unfortunately, it was already too late because darkness enveloped them as Alex appeared behind them with this sentence.
''Night Walking!''
''You are already dead.'' He added and before the leader of the scout could understand what he meant he saw his subordinates falling one by one like dominos, he was the last one to fall, and even until the end, he didn't understand how he died.
Alex smiled as he sent Silveria back, by combining his gun with his newly created skill he moved at extreme speed while getting rid of his enemies, thanks to Night walking no gunshot was heard.
A clean kill.
''Not bad!"
It was all he said before vanishing into the depth of the forest where he would go on a rampage for two days.
Two days later Alex who was ready to depart from the forest first stopped to check his status.

After leaving the forest to his next destination Alex appeared in what seems to be a ghost town. Arlington is the city's name.
The road that led to and from Arlington was unrecognizable as nature had begun reclaiming the now unused area. Gardens once looked after and trimmed to perfection were now rough and overgrown, returning to their chaotic natural state.
Most doors were either completely gone or mere remnants of rotten wood and rusty metal. The open doorways looked eerie as only darkness showed within. Broken roof tiles lay in the streets and gardens and crusty, dry paint faded from walls and fences.
Arlington, once a growing town on the rise to a better future was now but an eerie shell of its former self after it got swallowed by the abyss. The many sounds of wild animals who've made their home in this town are carried in the wind and give it a new sense of liveliness and vibrancy.
The future looked bright to the students of this town. The school was part of their every day. Jokes were told and laughs were had, but now there was only silence and forgotten memories.
You could go anywhere in town you wanted, walk into any home, and visit any previously private part of town, assuming it hadn't been destroyed by nature already. But there was an odd sense of harmony as nature reclaimed what was theirs and resettled an old balance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhile Alex was admiring the ghost town he felt something in the distance and hurried over, he found a giant portal from which an army of monsters appeared.
The ground trembles as an army of thousands advances as a whole. A cadence of steps after steps, all aligned with each other, there was not a single creature around for miles who was unaware of this army.
Up close it was the rustling of cloth and the jingling of chainmail that overpowers all other sounds.
The army of monsters was a collection of different species, but they all share the same goal: Defeat the enemy and make it out alive.
The front was led by eager charge units of orcs armed with huge maces and axes. They were followed by cavalry armed with spears, shields, and swords, who in turn are followed by elite sword cavalry.
Alex was shocked by the unexpected discovery, so much so that he almost laughed aloud but managed to control himself in the end. He knew going into the final floor room in the abyss wouldn't be easy but not this ridiculous.
Who would have to do that on the third floor if you could consider this place to be one where he'd meet an army of monsters acting like a proper army? It was shocking to the extent of being ridiculous.
If they're capable of doing this inside the abyss in the Infinity Maze then in the real world things would get pretty messy if Alex's group keep underestimating them.
Alex understood that the Bahamut he would be meeting on the final floor wasn't the real Bahamut but a fragment of his power who gained consciousness after he sealed Mysthia's world, creating this abyss in the Infinity Maze in the process.
'I'm glad I've made this trip here quickly as possible because who knows what could happen if I haven't.' Alex heaved a sigh of relief and because he was completely hiding his presence none of the monsters could detect his presence.
While Alex was lost in thoughts considering what he must do, Silveria who had been observing everything through his senses mumbled in disbelief.
〖No way!〗
'Huh!'
Alex who was brought back to his sense was puzzled but he quickly understood.
Night was slowly approaching and the army of monsters was setting a camp which was pretty shocking.
Alex laughed silently.
〖Master, won't you use the night as cover for a perfect ambush?〗Silveria was curious therefore she asked but Alex shook his head explaining.
'There is no need for an ambush for this measly army. I'm not that weak, if I attack it will be openly and most importantly there is something I meant to test for a while and this army will be the perfect test subject for it. We will attack tomorrow, let them get some rest before I send them to meet their maker.'
There was an evil grin on the corner of Alex's lips as he ended his sentence, Silveria almost felt pity for the monsters but she was curious about what her master had in mind, it had become hard to read him for a while.
Unaware of what the one they had been waiting for had in mind, the army of monsters decided to rest here and wait for their target who should be here by tomorrow or the day after as per that man's prediction, Bahamut's right-hand man.
•••
Sun rays come as nature's easel, giving brilliant color to what was hidden even under the passing starlit night. A new day has begun.
Alex woke up and yawned, after using some utility spell on himself (A/N: Spell for daily use such as cleaning, etc.)
''It is time to show them what a magic gunslinger is capable of in front of an army.''
He was grinning.
