Those who were residents had an easier time.

They just did their best to run away from the cotton monsters, their bodies instinctively avoiding the thin threads that were hard to perceive. If caught up, the adventurers could only seal their mouths to atone for their sins silently.

The time would be only their friend in such a case.

But the greed of the adventurers is just enormous. The ones, who had been silent and lucky enough to not spot Xaya before the commotion, clenched their weapons and lunged forth at the running adventurers to win the favor of the cotton monsters and get a nice seat in the natural safe zone.

However, greed was the primary motive!

If they can get the equipment for free or with the help of the cotton monsters, then this is a win-win situation! Whether a resident or not, the equipment can be taken easily.

The ones who weren't residents were desperately fighting though.

"Getaway! I just wanted to rest! Fuck!"

"We have never crossed paths in our lives, and so this trend shall continue! Let us go!"

"Hah! Do you think we are going to let you go? Such tasty and appealing equipment is within our grasp! Everyone, let's help our cotton friends! Hahahaha!"

Kyoya had sided with the adventurers helping the cotton monsters. As an archer, he had leisure time as the hands were the only part of his body moving continuously. His arrows were tearing the wind nonstop, whistling in the pleasant harmony.

The harmony that Xaya loved.

All because the arrows were going for the filth!

Possessing so many tanks was a great feeling. Those people were all over the adventurers, then even cotton monsters had acted like the great shield. On the backline, Kyoya was the one who excelled the most!

Though there were a lot of archers, his arrow five was landing the most damage every fifth attack. It could be seen by the strongest archers who had put a lot of attention on Kyoya. Unbeknown to him, Kyoya had been marked as the next target.

However, the archers weren't the only ones looking out.

The husband was eyeing all the abilities of the surrounding archers to soak their abilities up for himself. It was his goal ever since the battle with the worm, and now, Kyoya had a nice palette of the abilities revealed before him.

He did his best to remember the ones that could fit him and then, retreated a few steps back.

"Husband, why did you stop going for the filth?"

"Because the movement skill can not protect me from the range attacks."

"?"

Xaya tilted her head, but then her body flew. She followed her husband who was retreating toward the end of the natural safe zone. The backs of the archers were all exposed from this place allowing Kyoya to point his arrow at their bows.

However, the archers had long ago marked Kyoya.

At least a few of them had spun to face Kyoya!

"Bastard! Don't think of yourself as a clever smartass!"

"Mere goblin won't protect you! That taming technique will be also ours!"

"Get rid of him first!"

"Wow!"

The last one to exclaim was Xaya. The attention of the archers was not so expected, at least this fast. She clasped her hands, then gestured them to shot the arrows at the husband who was also channeling up his mana!

It's going to be the show!

"Looks like they were also eyeing up my techniques. I don't exactly have a taming technique, but this doesn't change things! Anoke, shift yourself to the left, and take as many arrows as you can!"

"Geh!"

"Do it, lower creature!"

Xaya said so while rubbing her cheek on Kyoya.

It means that she had already come back to her usual mood, so Anoke deftly rolled to the side, then unleashed his heavy fortress. By the time he did so, the volley got unleashed. The sky briefly shone with a hundred colors, then Kyoya pointed his arrow upward.

His eyes dilated, the sharp eye skill flashing through his eyes. The focus of the husband reached a profound level for various reasons. Regardless of that, he entered the trance. The trance that pulled the bowstring like a pro.

His fingers just danced around the bow and more than fifty arrows got shot down by his skill.

"Arrows."

"Yes, husband."

The left side was more or less secured by Anoke. Though Kyoya in his trance also added his help to lessen the burden. Meanwhile, Xaya reached out for her inventory, then pulled out the arrows with the stronger damage effect - the marriage buff.

While she was pulling the strings, Kyoya looked below, still in his trance.

The archers don't have the cheat which is the inventory. But notified by the 'betrayal', more and more archers began switching their attention. They saw Kyoya, but more importantly, the beauty belonging to him.

Thus, the greed pushed them forth and they joined the fray.

The number of arrows on their side if bigger no matter what.

It means that Kyoya should focus on the archers too. In his trance, Kyoya bravely accepted his self-challenge, then another volley got unleashed. The archers were pretty cheap going for the mere volley after the fourth failure.

That's what Kyoya thought, but their 'MANA' was far less than he had anticipated. The husband rode on his trance state, then amid the volley, his bow momentary lowered.

Then.

[You have killed level 49 archer.]

Following that notification were two other messages that mentioned the death briefly. Kyoya wasn't peeking at the system for now though. He turned his attention to the volley, then successfully broke their consecutive attacks!

"Damn... This feels good."

"Is it me?"

"Yeah, you feel the best, Xaya... But, I also feel great by dealing with so many archers... They didn't even waste a second to follow me which means they had already decided to kill me later."

"Filth is filth."

"Yes... I can only trust you."

"Mmm."

Overjoyed by these words, Xaya's bad mood got thrown aside! The joyful emotions flowed through her body so much that everyone could see it including the cotton monsters. Now, the attention of the adventurers from the safe zone was on the husband.

Jealous, but also enraged from the loss of the archers, the adventurers marched forward against the husband. The small earthquakes also swept through the safe zone from the steps of the cotton monsters!

Everyone was going for the husband!

[Archer's Zone Lv.1 Cost: 500 MP Cooldown: 5 min.]

The new trance turned into a skill.

The cooldown was a bother though.

"Not really... Before they get close, I will take a few of them... Afterward, we will use our sidestep movement skill!"

"Yes!"
