Is this really a Game?!

"Any movement around us Beast?" Reign asks while looking in front of them. They were currently walking through the town with their guard up as there were more and more orcs compared to before.

"None yet." Beast answers in a daze as he sits on the ground with his eyes closed.

"Damn orcs, we killed so many of them last time, shouldn't they have gone back to recuperate or something, why go crazy and let more patrols out in the town, it makes no sense." Shadow curses as he leans against a wall. They were in an abandoned apartment in the center of the town, there were many such apartments that one could find right now, some were empty while some were inhabited by monsters that decided to make their lairs inside the buildings.

"They're getting impatient, it's to be expected as we managed to gain control of 2 anchor points that used to belong to them, the orcs are only left with 1 now while the apes control another, we're in the lead currently," Wolf says as he looks around their location with binoculars that he bought previously. Beast was scouting with his eagle, but Wolf wanted to make sure there was nobody in the buildings close to them.

"Hmm, there's no ambush either, where the hell did those guys go?" He muses as he returns the binoculars in the inventory.

"I don't like this, it's weird." Tank suddenly says as he gets up from the ground while holding his scythe and shield, he was visibly nervous right now as he looked around the room.

"What's wrong, big guy?" Shadow asks him with concern as he looks at his weird behavior.

"I don't know, I just feel like something is wrong with this, we were told there were hundreds if not thousands of orcs and hobgoblins patrolling this part of the town, and yet we haven't seen a single one for so long, plus there's just this feeling in my chest that's telling me something here doesn't add up."

"Well, that's obvious." Reign suddenly says as he grabs his swords and brings them out of their sheaths.

"Bro?"

"Hundreds, if not thousands of orcs, and yet that squad managed to successfully flee and come back to the territory relatively fine, don't you think that's a bit weird, if not perhaps impossible Shadow?" Wolf adds from the side as he takes his greatsword out.

"You mean?" Shadow opens his eyes wide as he suddenly grabs his daggers.

"Ambush, but what I want to know is where the ambush will come from, we already scouted the whole area, the air is empty of draifs, the streets and alleys are empty, even the apartments are empty." Wolf scratches his head as he yawns suddenly.

"So that only leaves one place huh?"

"Yup, it seems the bastards were digging a bit huh?" Wolf smiles at Shadow as he finishes his words.

"So, let's get out of this building," Wolf says as he opens the door leading to the balcony.

"Wait Wolf, what are-" Before Shadow could finish his words he falls to the ground as the building suddenly starts shaking violently.

"They're here," Wolf announces as he looks down, tens of orcs were currently coming out of the ground as they broke through the cement of the street. Judging from the shaking of the building it seems that there were even more orcs below the building, trying to destroy it.

"Just use your daggers to go down the building Shadow," Reign says as he joins Wolf on the balcony before the both of them jump down, Greenie flashed a smile to Shadow as he also jumped down.

"Crazy bastards." Shadow suddenly mutters as he looks at Tank who simply shrugs his shoulders. Beast and Laura were next, both of them jump down before Beast's eagle comes to them. They grab ahold of his talons as he slowly brings them down to the ground.

"That's cheating," Shadow mutters again as he looks at them with his mouth slightly open. Laura turns her head around and smiles at him gleefully before waving him goodbye.

"Damn it, let's go Tank!" He shouts before jumping down. He immediately used his shadow ability to make a pair of shadows grab his feet, with that he was able to stand on the side of the building with ease.

"Use your daggers, huh, I'll show you." Shadow smiles before running down towards Reign and Wolf. Reign was using his two swords to get down while Wolf used his greatsword. Their swords were cutting through the side of the building like it was nothing and they were slowly increasing in speed.

Greenie on the other hand was using his hands to punch through the side of the building. He had managed to get the memories and inheritance from before, but he still needed more time to absorb them and gain new abilities.

Suddenly Shadow appeared next to them. They both opened their eyes wide before looking down at his feet, seeing the shadows coiling around them they immediately knew what he was doing.

"Hey bro, can you do the same for us?" Reign smiles brightly at Shadow while asking.

"Nope, just use your swords to go down the building Reign." Shadow repeats the same words to Reign as he gleefully smiles at him. He follows the two while Tank was slowly going down as well. He had switched out his shield and scythe for the two axes he had, he was using them to slowly get down, similarly to how mountain climbers used their hooks.

Of course, the hooks were much weaker than Tank's axes that manage to cut through concrete.

They all slowly go down before jumping at the orcs some 5 meters from the ground. The orcs panic as they never expected their enemy to actually do something like this. The building was still standing and their enemy was already out of it while the rest of their brethren were still working hard to bring it down.

Right as the battle commences the ground suddenly shakes violently. The building had started leaning towards Reign and the others as the sound of concrete and glass breaking could be heard.

"Shit, go right!" Reign shouts as everyone suddenly runs away, the orcs and hobgoblins were no different as they all scrambled in order to get away before the building falls on them.

"What the hell was that?" Shadow curses as he runs with Reign and the others, "The building was not even close to collapsing before, for something like this to happen so suddenly, what the hell did those damn orcs do?"

"Well if I had to guess, a boss?"

"Yup" Wolf simply nods in agreement to Reign's words as they continue running, the building was only a 7 story high one, it was one of the more luxurious ones as each floor was a 250 square meter apartment, to get out of its falling path wasn't hard, but they didn't want to get caught by the debris so they continued further.

Tank was right behind them as well while Laura and Beast were in the air as they didn't even get to the ground before the building started falling down. As they were both long-range attackers of the party they waited for Reign and the others to clear out some of the orcs before landing, but that was interrupted by the building.

Everyone managed to get far away as the building collapsed on the ground. Tank immediately used his mana shield to block any debris and shrapnel from hitting them, a wise choice as the shield was hit a couple of times right after the crash.

A huge dust cloud was formed at the place of the crash as they all stared at it, they knew this was still not over, the orcs seemed confident in their plan this time, traveling underground to get to them, Reign and the others really didn't expect such a tactic from them.

"I'm just confused over one thing, how did they know we were in that building?" Wolf asks as he looks at the building, him and Beast made sure to scout their surroundings thoroughly, he was certain that there were no enemies around them.

"A stealth user?" Shadow asks suddenly, as he had the shadow ability he was certain that he could avoid being seen by Wolf and Beast if he stuck to the shadows at all times, it wasn't impossible for the orcs to have someone similar to him right?

"I guess that's the only reasonable explanation right now." Wolf nods at Shadow as they get their weapons ready, they were certain that the orcs were going to attacks them, after all, however, brought down the building had to be incredibly strong.

"You seem to be fine, humans."

A voice could be suddenly heard from the cloud, slowly a figure could be seen exiting it.

A 3.5-meter tall orc was walking towards them with a hammer in his hands, the huge orc's body was filled with muscles as tattoos could be seen everywhere. His upper body was naked as a leather skirt was covering his nether regions.

"That's good, it would not be fun if you died so easy." The orc smiles dangerously as he looks at them.
