Arachne seemed to be displeased at not being able to mutilate the zombie that dared to attack Noah, she made sure to use her hand instead of her legs to destroy the zombies brain to fully experience the feeling of finishing off the pest. She then looked towards Fenrir who was still running around killing everything while fully enjoying himself, she felt disappointed that Fenirr would allow its own prey to attack Noah.

"Don't worry about him, just go or do you want to get left behind?"

Arachne's expression became horrid before she sped away again.

"Hehe~I can see why you care for them so much." Ailetta giggled after seeing the frightening spider behave so innocently.

"Wha-what?" She panicked when meeting Noah's gaze.

"There's a body for you, Your skill is to reanimate right? Just go after the weaker ones with that one there."

.......

"I-I thought he wasn't going to help us!" No one knew who said it since they were watching everything transpiring, there was only one person who didn't like what they were seeing.

"He's not.." The contradicting and ominous words caused everywhere to turn towards the voice to find Mark at its source. Jasmine thought Mark was having one of his jealous fits again and asked worriedly. "What do you mean?"

For a few moments he didn't bother to respond to her question since he was just witnessing Ailetta reanimate the zombie that even he could barely keep up with visually. Then like if the zombie was never dead, it sped off into the groups of zombies while clawing into the nearest zombies face and attempting to bite through its skull before going towards another.

Mark could understand why everyone assumed Noah was helping them.

"He's not helping us..he's helping himself and...her." His gaze was stuck on Ailetta who was concentrating diligently to control such a creature.

It only took for him to point it out before the others began to realize what he meant. Most of them still didn't care, that meant they didn't have to fight. But the smart ones had different opinions.

"I say we should fight too!" Ishii exclaimed while brandishing his sword. He didn't want to get left behind either.

"But do you think he would like you interfering?" That question caused the fire in Ishii's heart to die down quickly.

"I don't think so...he said it himself, we are pathetic for not trying to fight, he wouldn't get upset that we decided to fight now. He may seem like the devil, but he's true to his word." Isabelle stated while watching the carnage happening with Noah's creatures.

But everyone was more interested about how she could insult and compliment a person at the same time.

"Tsk! There's no point in thinking about it, I'm not going to let others fight for me. If there's anyone else who also thinks the same then follow me!" Mark charged without any hesitation towards the fight.

What was surprising was that as soon as he left, the small woman from earlier followed right behind him as if she was already prepared for him to leave.

Seeing this, Ishii grew excited again and rushed off after them, which led to the others following behind.

.....

Everything seemed to be going right for Noah. He had noticed the gradual change in Fenrir as he became faster and stronger overtime. He made it seem effortless as he slayed any zombie he encountered. But that wasn't enough for Fenrir to show Noah how strong he was. He needed a stronger adversary.

He sped towards the zombie that resembled the tall one from before. But this one actually had eyes and had one gigantic muscular arm that almost reached the ground while its other arm was half the size and was devoid of 90% of the muscle of its counterpart. But both legs appeared to be extremely muscular as well. It was just that it was outshone by its overly large arm.

Fenrir approached it and immediately clawed at one of its legs before making a huge laceration and then another before a gigantic fist came crashing into its ribs. It wasn't that the zombie was fast, but it's fist left Fenrir with little room to maneuver around.

When it seemed as if Fenrir was about to be sent flying, Fenrir went a couple of meters and rolled twice before he sunk his claws into the ground and bounced back towards the zombie with more fervor, his speed increasing once again after that attack.

This time, with his increased speed, he lunged himself into the zombies torso, knocking in down abruptly and began to swing in a craze at anything he could reach. Blood sprayed almost like a fountain, but zombies rarely let pain stop their actions as it sent Fenrir flying once again.

Even when being blasted away, you could still see Fenrir's tail wagging, he was enjoying this.

The Zombie prepared itself to meet Fenrir head on, but two things happened that turned the fight into something not worth mentioning.

"Fenrir, is this the strength you wanted to show Noah, our master?"

Arachne appeared next to their fight, she was constantly being made aware of everything going on in the vicinity. Not just because of her skills, but because of her new increase in awareness after transforming into half human. She was particularly watching Fenrir ever since his mishap of allowing his prey to escape and she didn't like what she was seeing now either.

She didn't have to say anything else, Fenrir didn't even turn to look at her, instead his pupils dilated exaggeratedly as he was now completely focused. He started off wanting Noah to be proud of his new strengths, but he began to enjoy himself, Arachne made him realize his error.

Without any hint or warning, Fenrir's size began to gradually change, growing in size. His size increased by an extra three meters while everything else appeared to stay in proportion to its growth. The skill wasn't instantaneous, it took about 10 seconds to complete, but why would the zombie wait for Fenrir to finish its transformation? And what about the zombies around him?

The sprinter zombies converge on Fenrir immediately and began to attempt to chew through his fur. There wasn't any goal in their mind other than to feed. But their actions left little to no result besides lowering the amount of fur he had in some areas.

The large zombie pace quickened as it instinctively roared. And just when it approached Fenrir, a dark purple aura suddenly enveloped it. Its actions weren't impeded In anyway, but the next scene clearly showed what happened.

The zombie didn't have any proper form when attacking Fenrir but it swung its dominant arm barbarically, this time connecting to Fenrir's face. The scene that was to be expected didn't play out the same way. The only change that occurred was Fenrir's face turning to the force of the slap.

The strength in the zombies body became meager to Fenrir's current status after Arachne activated her skill on the zombie and went to find more prey, dissatisfied with Fenrir's performance.

Fenrir wasn't aware of what Arachne did and just assumed that it had become that much stronger. Growling arrogantly, Fenrir grabs the zombie by its sides, holding it in place. The zombie couldn't fight back at all but it continued to struggle.

Chomp!*

Now that they were around the same size, Fenrir directly submerged the zombie's head into its mouth before loud sounds of flesh tearing and crushing bones could be heard.

If things were to continue going this way then he would continue to stay ahead. His vigilance began to relax at the thought of how strong he was compared to the current zombies. But he couldn't relax completely because he always had a troubling thought in the back of his mind. Even though he was strong now, that was only if the creatures and monsters didn't grow as fast as him.

However the first domino was already placed when he heard voices approaching from his side before watching Mark and everyone running past them to reach the zombies.

Noah made sure that he and Ailetta were a good distance away from the horde, besides the tier one zombie from earlier, the other zombies didn't seem to be aware of their presence as they focused their attention on the only figure they could see which was Fenrir.

Yet when Mark's group entered the fray, all of the zombies seemed to experience a trigger.

It was as if they were no longer aware of Fenrir or Arachne's existence. Because they were always confronting the zombies directly, the others couldn't tell that every zombie that wasn't a tier one zombie was what Noah considered to be a sprinter.

There were sprinters that were almost as fast as Noah, which would mean their agility was close to 60. Much more than what Mark and them were prepared for, but thankfully for them, there were a lot less of the zombies than there could have been.

But when the zombies headed in their direction, a space began to open up within the gate, that finally allowed the rest to approach from the other side.

Boom, Boom*

Subtle footsteps could be heard against the concrete. The steps could be felt more than they were heard. Unlike a certain group under duress, Noah was able to notice the odd noise.

"Ailetta you have to get back." Noah used his arm to nudge her away.

Ailetta didn't notice the odd variable at all as she was even more focused to support her friends in their endeavor. She wasn't sure if Noah commanded his creatures not to help them, but she had prepared herself for something like this to happen. She couldn't blame Noah, but she couldn't let them fight alone either.

'Sigh..'

Noah noticed this and didn't bother anymore. Instead he turned his attention on what was coming through the gate.

The first thing he saw was other regulars coming through, he was sure they would be sprinters too, but for some reason they weren't running to get in.

However he noticed that when one of them reached a certain distance, its gaze looking towards the group of students, it soon took off into a sprint.

More zombies piled in before the sign of the odd variable showed itself.

The zombie wasn't much taller than Arachne. It had to be about 8 feet tall, but it was built like a truck. What was supposed to be skin appeared more like armor which explains why the thing sounded so heavy.

Noah was glad that they came this way, already he could feel that he had a notification. He was sure that Fenrir must have leveled up. This was one of the greatest experience farms he could ask for and it was just beginning.
