Pov Hela:
Morning of the 5th day of the Monster Wave.
Today has been a strange day, the number of monsters has increased, but their strength, in general has decreased, this means that it is easier to fight the Monster Wave as we have people capable of clearing large groups of monsters quickly like érica with her area spells, Irina with the creative way she uses her corrosion ability and Jade with her venom even deadlier than the venomous monsters we’ve been fighting.
The master trusted me to deal with most enemies knowing I could turn dead monsters into Undead slaves to fight on my command, which went terribly wrong when I tried it on the first day of Monster Wave.
The monsters I turned into Undead got out of my control, and the energies in this forest and this village are out of control, this is affecting my spells to control Undead, which makes me just create more monsters that we will have to defeat.
That’s why I stopped doing it, but that didn’t stop the bodies of defeated monsters from starting to become Undead on their own from the 3rd day of Monster Wave.
It’s me, the Fairies, and the Spirits who have been dealing with the bodies.
I have a spell that helps me to guard dead bodies, this spell has been very useful, but it has a limit of bodies I can store, I have been bypassing this limit by using a special magic crystal that contains a Phantom Orb and an Evil Seed that Lyra did for me.
I remember it was the master who asked Lyra to make this Weapon for me, according to him it’s not complete yet, but we didn’t have time, so only this crystal was given to me as it can greatly increase my Necromancy magical capabilities.
With this crystal, I was able to increase my magic to guard bodies by more than 10 times, in addition, my spells to summon Undead are working perfectly, but I have a limit of creatures that I can summon at the same time, a limit that increased by 3 times thanks to this crystal.
With that, I have controlled an army of 2900 Undead, from warriors to Lich who can use magic.
Thanks to that I’ve taken on the entire direct side of the combat field, as the maximum strength of these trades ranges from Grade S to Grade SSS, I try to focus on fighting only problematic enemies for Undead or Lower Catastrophe Grade that are too strong for our troops.
For me, fighting in person is not a problem, since I was born I have been training to make the best possible use of this body that the master gave me, I spend every morning training my hand-to-hand combat techniques and during the afternoon I do my research of Necromancy.
Thanks to this routine I am a decent warrior, I still have the advantage of this body, my claws cut monsters like they were nothing, my tail is like a whip, my strength is superior to that of giants, and I also have very keen senses.
With this I have managed to tear my enemies to pieces, even those with a strength equal to mine are just simple-minded monsters, they have no combat experience and are not able to use their own abilities to their fullest potential.
I train a lot with Lilith who is very creative with her attacks, so fighting these predictable monsters has been easy.
Today the battle was strangely calm with me having less chance to fight, from what I know a Monster Wave should get harder and stronger with monsters over time, but what’s happening now is the opposite of that.
During a moment when I had less enemies to fight, I left my troops of summoned Undead fighting and I look at the gigantic World Tree, I can only think that the planting process must be going well and the worst part is over, that’s why the World Tree is the reason for this Monster Wave, so soon this will all be over.

Pov Barok:
“Leader, I confirmed that all of our people still have their lifesaving items.”
“That’s good, it means we’ve improved our strength a lot, in the past, I could never have expected to fight such a strong Monster Wave, we would be annihilated.” (I)
“Since we were saved, we have been following your orders and training day and night, the Dungeon presents great training opportunities and we have monsters against whom to test the results of training in practice.”
“We have to be strong, even now we are receiving the kindness of Master Zenos, but we have to be strong not to be a burden and to be able to be useful to Master Zenos.” (I)
“All for the Great Dragon Zenos…”
“…” (I)
“GET READY!” (I)
I tried to converse while resting when more enemies approach the place where my people and I caught our breath.
After days of fighting having little or no time to sleep, not to mention we have little time to even eat, so when the monsters took a break from appearing, I stopped for a while and asked someone to confirm the state of the people in my village.
I must say that everyone’s development is excellent, the master gave me forms of training that would be useful for wheels, moreover, Diana comes often to teach me using her combat experience.
So when several Poison Mist Beetles, more than 600 of them will start flying towards us with their big 4 meter tall bodies, I tell everyone to be prepared.
The master advised me to read some books, at first I wanted to refuse because I thought it was a waste of time, but I couldn’t deny anything he said, I know how wise he is, so I knew he had a reason for it. 𝙚𝙙𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎
These books made me understand a lot of things, and from those things, it was to understand the monsters better.
I hold my sword tightly and manage to kill all the monsters after almost 2 hours of fighting.
These monsters only have poison based attacks, many of my people have resistance against poisons and so it has been doing well, but this time they were of very little use.
The shells of these monsters are very strong, I try to use a normal sword on the dead body of one of the monsters, but the sword breaks, I try to use my Dragon sword, my sword only cuts halfway and that is with me using all my strength.
Looks like I did it by aiming at the joints, eyes, and mouth to kill these things.
But before I can go back to rest, a Poisonous Ice Serpent appears, I run forward and count in two the large ice crystal heading towards my people’s warriors.
I fight while the others walk away, it takes me more than 30 minutes to fight just this monster because he has a body covered in hard scales and still wears an ice armor that he repairs every time I manage to break it.
“< Breath of Fire >” (I)
I fight until this damn giant Serpent tries to swallow me, then I use my strength to keep that big mouth open as a torrent of fire leaves my mouth and goes down the throat of this damn Serpent who struggles for a few seconds before dropping dead.
