Chapter 370 Don't F*cking Talk To Me!
"Are those… anima?"
Mark could hear the sheer disbelief in Arit's voice and he couldn't blame her. Even Mark was shocked by the sheer number of Anima that was being dropped from the planes.
The planes flying over the festival were dropping hordes of anima from their cargo hold. Each of the planes held about fifteen anima. So right now, there were forty-five anima free-falling from the sky and coming right toward the island!
SLAM!
BOOM!
The icicles slammed into the planes, and the planes blew up in a fiery explosion from the force of the impact, but that didn't matter anymore since the pilots had already dropped off their cargo! The anima continued their freefall and the people on the island all stopped and turned to look up in fear and awe at the sheer number of monsters coming towards them.
But even in the midst of the coming carnage, Mark could still feel that tense sensation somewhere deep inside him. The feeling that there was still something else coming. Something that a plane couldn't carry even if it wanted to.
Mark's eyes moved towards the docks where many boats and ships were floating in the water, and his hand tensed as he saw the waves slowly smashing against the pier. The water level started to rise sharply, and the boats that were docked there all began to fall over and sink from the intense waves as something huge began to emerge from the water.
Mark turned to his system immediately.
[Does the User wish to send Stat points to the specified Stat? Yes/No]
[Does the User wish to send Skill points to the specified Skill? Yes/No]
Mark chose "yes" in both options and watched as his system sent the remaining stat and skill points he had to what he chose.

Mark still had some unused skill points that he could add to any of the skills, but he knew that it would be useless since the number of points needed to make any of his skills level up right now was all higher than three hundred.
It would be more sensible for Mark to wait a bit so that he could get more points from killing anima and then add the points to the skill that he wanted to level up later.
Mark narrowed his eyes as he tossed his kimono aside. He was wearing a singlet and a pair of black joggers underneath, and he immediately summoned the Armor of Ares and put it on his chest, allowing it to expand into the military vest that protected his chest and shoulders.
Arit turned to Mark when she saw him toss his kimono away and she felt fear fill her heart when she followed his eyes and noticed what he had been looking at all this time. Mark wasn't even giving the anima dropping from the sky a second glance! Instead, he was watching the giant bulge in the ocean that was slowly growing bigger and bigger!
The bulge already looked large enough to be a sunken ship rising from the water, but it was still growing!
[Alert! Alert! This is a public announcement from the City F Superhuman Agency! Multiple anima have been spotted in the airspace above the city! The time of impact is predicted to be in twenty seconds! All festival goers and citizens are urged to return to their hotels bunkers or ask the staff stationed around the festival for directions to the nearest bunker!
This is not a drill! All citizens and festival goers are advised to return to their hotels -]
BOOOOOMMMMM!!!!
ROARRRRRRR!!
The sound of a massive implosion from the ocean cut off what the announcer was about to say on the public announcement system, and Mark cursed as he finally saw what was coming. That was definitely not a Calamity.
"An Elder Eldritch."
Luna's eyes were wide in shock as she looked at the giant anima that had emerged from the ocean. This anima was different from the one that Mark fought in the assessment previously! The anima was tall enough to reach the top of a skyrise building and large enough to cover an entire football field with its body!
It had a similar appearance to an octopus, with eight tentacles swaying around it agitatedly and a large bowling ball-like head! When it lifted its body off the ground, it revealed a large mouth lined with multiple rows of ragged teeth, and its two red eyes glared out at everything beneath it through slit holes. It was like a monster straight out of a Lovecraft novel.
[Oh my god! W-What the hell is that!? An anima just came from the fucking ocean! Run! Everybody close to the docks is going to die! Run away from there!
Please, if there is anyone that can fight an Eldritch! We need help at the docks!]
The public announcer wasn't even trying to be professional anymore as she shouted at the top of her lungs for everybody to run! Mark saw multiple superhumans running towards the festival to intercept the anima, and Mark quickly turned to Arit.
"Go and make sure Talia is fine. Find the bunker, and both of you should stay in it until I get back."
Arit was not happy about this at all!
"Wait! You want to go and fight that monster!? It's huge!"
Arit knew what Mark wanted to do and she hated the fact that she couldn't do anything to help Mark at all! Arit already knew that there was no one else on this island that could fight against that Eldritch except for Mark, but that does not mean that Arit wanted him to go and risk his life against something like that!
Arit had already gotten used to Mark leaving her behind to go and fight against monsters, but she has never seen a monster that was on the same level as that Eldritch! Honestly, Arit just felt useless right now.
Arit wanted to make sure that Mark would be alright by being there with him, but she also knew that she couldn't do that because of how much effort they were putting into making sure that her secret wasn't exposed. If Arit tried to run into battle with Mark, then all their hard work would be wasted!
"I'm with him, so nothing bad will happen. I'll watch his back, don't worry."
Luna suddenly spoke up from behind Arit while giving Mark a nod with a serious look on her face. Luna had already thrown her kimono to the side as well. On the inside, she wore a white and black Calvin Klein sports bra and a pair of running pants that hugged her body criminally, showing off her long legs.
Even though Luna had been enjoying the festival, she was still conscious enough of any possible danger to wear an outfit that would allow her to jump into a fight whenever she needed to.
Arit turned to glare at Luna in anger once she heard her talk! Arit didn't want to hear that some other woman would be beside Mark right now!
"I wasn't fucking talking to you!"
Luna recoiled in shock as she saw Arit's poison-yellow eyes glaring into her soul!
