Anthony tried to infer information about the monster using the details he has. But he's not too sure about the conclusions he came up with.

"I think the monster has an ability that lets him absorb the life of creatures. But it's just my speculation using the state of the corpses as the basis." Anthony voiced his thoughts to his team.

"What you say is reasonable."

Fein walked toward the corpses, he squat and started to examine them one by one.

He started to tap the skin of the bodies. When his fingers made a contact with the skin. They turned into ashes along with the bones. "There are no traces of even dry blood inside them and the flesh, bones, and skin were sucked dry."

Fein's nose twitched as he transformed his nose into that of a bloodhound to boost his sense of smell. When he tried to use his nose, what he didn't expect was the bodies didn't have a bad odor or good smell on them. Nothing, it didn't have any smell.

One has to know that the sensitivity of the bloodhound's nose was a million times more sensitive than human.

'This is weird... Did the monster really absorb their blood and life?' Fein began to consider Anthony's theory. At the same time, a feeling of dread appeared in his heart.

If the monster can really do this, then it won't be as simple as he thought it would be. 'If this was true, the monster literally turned the three hundred people into his nourishment, and would only bloom if he gets to absorb the required amount. It means that the monster won't stop his rampage, and the possibility of attacking again is high!' Fein stood up when he thought of this. He thinks that he could use that opportunity to hunt the monster.
They don't need to track the monster at all. They only needed to wait for it to come out on its own when the time comes when it would devour humans again. Of course, they have to respond on time, or else the victims would die.




Everything has pros and cons. And he thinks that this is the best way to do it. They only need to scatter within the city, and if the monster attack, they would have eyes and ears in every part of the city.

At that time, they only needed to use the phones to inform each other of the monster's location, and Michael would use his shadow realm to gather the team and instantly appear at the monster's location.

'Damn! Is this the effect of S-rank logical thinking? When did my mind become as sharp as this?'

Fein didn't think that he was smart. Contrary to it, he felt that he was quite dumb.

In his past life, he only has average grades. Though he could understand the lessons, the teacher taught them in the past, it wasn't as fast as now.

"Guys, I have a suggestion. I think I know how we would hunt this monster." Fein raised his left hand to get the attention of all members.

Anthony curled his lips upward. "I think I know what plan you thought of."

"Well, I won't be surprised cause the plan is not that complicated. We will use the fact that the monster would attack again. Of course, the basis is that the monster can devour. With that, we just need to wait when it would show itself again."

Fein scratched his chin due to mannerisms, then he pointed at the fragile corpses in the ground, and look at Anthony. "But there's a catch." he stopped for a moment and his eyes narrowed into slits.

Hearing this, Anthony smirked. "We have to act quickly because if we were just a tad bit slow. The life of innocent people would be at stake. And to prevent that, we need to scatter in different parts of the city, so we will be able to respond in a timely manner."

"And my shadow ability is the key to instant transportation, right?" Michael couldn't help but add.

"That's a good plan. As expected of our think tanks." Gregory praised.

In their team, Fein and Anthony are the two that has flexible and sharp minds. They are always able to think on their feet with just a few details and come up with an effective plan. Of course, Michael could also do the same, but he wasn't as fast as the two in this aspect.

Michael's strength was more on combat IQ and reading people's feelings and emotions. Among the members of the Ranger's Eye. Michael had to have the highest EQ. Opposite of Anthony, who was below average in terms of it. Though, he could rely on his understanding of people's psychology and body language to bridge the gap and cover this weakness.

​ That's why he always observes people consciously every time until it became his instinct. Now, he understands people better because of his effort.

'I didn't expect that this guy who wore glass has high intelligence.' Jonel took a glance at Anthony. After all, He had the lowest presence among the group and he sometimes forgets that there are four guests in the station.

"Then let's spread to different areas tonight. We have to kill that monster before it could hurt someone." Michael spoke with a hint of seriousness in his tone.

"We'll do as Fein said. If we can kill this monster, it would be a big contribution and higher-ups might increase the resources they give to us annually." Gregory said.

Fein looked at corpses on the ground. He could still see the despair on their faces and the agony they experience. 'They probably died slowly with blood loss.'

For Fein, slow death could be considered torture. After all, who won't feel horrified when you see with your own eyes your life slowly comes to an end? Humans are afraid of death. They are already programmed to fear eternal sleep because they didn't know where they would go after they died. It has the element of fear of the unknown, which was the oldest fear of Humans.

'Well, I'll avenge all of you. And I will also get experience points in return.' Fein set a goal to kill the monster at this time.
