After about 3 weeks of constant fighting, Reign and the others had managed to level up many times and were now much stronger compared to before.

Not only were their levels higher, but they have fully decked out in rank A items while also managing to find some rank S items as well.

Reign currently had 3 rank S items, one of which was his sword while the other two were a ring and earring. Greenie has also decked out in rank A items, he, however, couldn't wear anything on his head, he could only wear a cloak or an armor, not both, and the gloves he wore only gave him half of the stats they usually did. Rings and earrings were limited to 1, instead of the usual two that others could wear.

He, however, now had a rank S weapon, as did everyone else. ( I will post the equipment of Reign and Greenie in an auxiliary chapter when this chapter comes out, the full status screen for both Greenie and Reign will be put up as well. )

Greenie had managed to not only catch up but also get to a higher level compared to Reign and the others. His strength was incredible and even though he couldn't get the bonus stats that more equipment would give him, his combined stats were only a bit lower compared to Reign.

The others were of course the same, all of them were now able to fully equip themselves in rank A items with some rank S ones. The overall power of the whole group had skyrocketed in a mere 3 weeks while a couple of groups and combatants in the territory had reached Tier I as well.

For today, they brought the royal guards of the elves, and Cameron's and Elijah's team while Neil and his group were busy and couldn't join. There were more groups and people that had reached Tier I, but they were simply not strong enough to join in such a battle and even one level 70+ demon would be able to put them in grave danger.

Aelrinder had joined Reign and the others and had spent the three weeks hunting with them, this was the first time the elf commander had left his base and joined another group ever since he and the elves came to Earth.

The feeling of being free from his responsibilities and being able to fight for three weeks with Reign and the others made wonders for Aelrinder. Not only did he manage to level up, but his abilities and skills had vastly improved.

It was as if some sort of mental blockage had been lifted from his shoulders and he was finally able to unlock his full potential.

'My queen, I see why you wanted me to join them now.' Aelrinder thought as he joined Reign and the other three groups.

The whole idea of him joining Reign and the others in order to fight came from the queen. Aelrinder actually tried to put down the idea at first, he was after all the commander of the base and he should be fighting alongside his brethren, keeping them safe and making sure that everything in the base operated well.

But the queen would have none of it, she pretty much ordered Aelrinder to go with them and fight, telling him that everything here would be fine, especially after the Tainted were defeated.

It was only after destroying the base that Aelrinder felt comfortable with asking Reign and the others to join. With the Tainted gone, the elven base was pretty much perfectly safe, with the elves being almost level 40 on average, it would be near impossible for the monsters in the Ironbark Woods to destroy the base.

With the elves increasing in power, however, it was time for Aelrinder to come back. Even though his level was far above everybody else, he still needed to take command of the base and make sure that everything was going well. His level would perhaps stagnate a bit compared to Reign and the others, but he would be able to level up by himself before the royal guards caught up to his level.

"You sure you don't want to stay?" Reign asked Aelrinder who smiled at him before shaking his head.

"I would gladly stay with you, my friend, but I can't simply leave my post for too long, perhaps another time." Reign and Alerinder shook hands as the two said goodbye. The elf took turns saying goodbye to everyone else as well as they had become good friends after three weeks of fighting together.

Aelrinder was a valuable combatant and he even managed to surprise Reign and the others with his progress and power. His main ability was especially important as he could sense everything in 1km around him, making it impossible for anybody to ambush them, well, anybody except for those that had a stealth-ability.

The ability was still one that Reign and the others had seen a lot of use from. Aelrinder was able to spot most monster spots from afar and they were easily able to go around more powerful groups and avoid any unnecessary dangers.

They were also able to easily ambush and kill most of the monsters since they could spot them before the monsters spotted them. The ability that Aelrinder had truly shined the brightest when he was part of a group.

His wind ability had also improved greatly together with Beast's. Since the two had the same ability, they were able to share and train the ability together. Even though the two men used the ability in a vastly different ways, the differences were the one thing that helped them out greatly.

Beast had learned how to further improve the strength and penetrative force of his arrows when coating them with his wind while Aelrinder had improved the reach of his wind-type skills greatly.

The control both had over their ability was greatly improved and the ability level rose considerably, especially for Beast who had just recently managed to get the ability.

Shadow and the others had improved as well of course. Their weapons were the main thing they had changed, Shadow had actually managed to get two different daggers from Adrian, compared to the ones he had before, these were both made separately and were rank S.

One of the daggers was actually created from the two rank A daggers he previously used. Shadow didn't want to lose the powerful poison that the daggers had, so he gave them to Adrian in hopes that the old blacksmith would be able to make one rank S dagger with the same property.

And that he did, the dagger that Adrian created had an incredibly powerful poison on it, while the other one he created boosted Shadow's ability and skills.

Wolf was now wielding a sword that was 2.2 meters long and was pitch black with red lines on it. The body of the drake was used in order to create it and it boosted Wolf's strength and flames greatly while allowing him to deliver devastating attacks thanks to it being 130kg ( 286 lbs ), a full 100kg ( 220 lbs ) heavier compared to the previous sword.

Greenie on the other hand was wielding a huge hammer that primarily boosted his strength and allowed for powerful attacks thanks to its size and weight as it was almost as heavy as Wolf's sword, being 110kg ( 242 lbs ).

Over the course of three weeks, the party had not only fully explored the mountain where their base was, but they had managed to explore another mountain almost fully as well. They were now on the second mountain and it was time for them to go back to the base as a new challenge was coming.
