Chapter 258 : Battlefield Rose
Chapter 258: Battlefield Rose
Rachel, who stood to the side, witnessed the scene.
She quickly dismissed the others and gently, silently closed the door.
—To prevent anyone from barging in and disturbing Gauss.
She knew Gauss was in a rare, serendipitous state of deep epiphany.
Ӗ n̄ úm̌а̊.і̌d̊
Now was the critical moment.
Or rather, the reason she had carved out time from her busy schedule to guide Gauss was precisely to help him set foot on his second Class Path.

She just hadn't expected this process to arrive so soon.
She originally thought that no matter what, she’d need to instruct him several times before he might manage to condense the Path and shake the Class barrier.
But unexpectedly, just one session was enough for him to take the crucial first step.
A trace of envy couldn’t help but surface in her gaze as she looked at Gauss.
Е̌n̄ ū m а̄ . i̊ ḋ
No wonder he had attracted the attention of that esteemed figure.
At this moment, Gauss, fully immersed in the transformation of his body, could no longer sense Rachel’s gaze.
He felt his blood surge like raging waves, crashing throughout his body in unrelenting torrents, causing an intense, burning heat to engulf him.
It was as if he had become a small boat, sailing through a storm-tossed sea.

That newly awakened power continuously scoured his body.
Tearing, reforging, scorching.

In this process, the originally vast magical energy did not intervene; it merely flowed steadily on. The two distinctly different forces would occasionally intersect, yet never interfere with one another—whether negatively or positively.
Condensing a second Class Core was indeed much harder than the first.
Rachel fixed her eyes on Gauss’s broad, rippling mage robe.
She secretly felt relieved on his behalf—thankfully, this breakthrough was taking place inside the Adventurer’s Guild, free from any external interference.
This was one of the safest places in all of Sena City.
At least, during her tenure as President, no one had dared to stir up trouble here.

And only here could Gauss undergo this metamorphosis without disruption.
Just at that moment—
「BOOM!!!」
A dull yet forceful rumble suddenly came from outside.
Even the walls of the training room trembled slightly from the shock.
What happened??
Еn̄ ü.m а. i d
Rachel’s expression changed instantly.
She glanced at Gauss and, seeing that he seemed unaffected by the tremor, finally let out a breath of relief.

But the moment her gaze shifted away from Gauss, the usual cheerful smile vanished from her face.
Her eyes turned sharp as a hawk’s.
「Who the hell caused this commotion—at this exact moment?」
She glanced at Gauss again. Soon after, the crystal on the door began to flash with light.
Ẅéb ṅ о_v̆ĕl̈ Е_n ùm а
It was the emergency signal from the Adventurer’s Guild staff outside, requesting her presence.
She had explicitly told them not to disturb her unless it was truly urgent. Now, with the alarm triggered and even the sealed training room feeling the vibration—
She knew something must have happened outside!
She glanced at Gauss once more, but ultimately decided to step out for a look.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Hopefully, she could contain the situation at its root.
—Once outside the door, the staff waiting outside were already like ants on a hot pan, each of them looking anxious and uneasy.
Е̊ ñ ŭm̃ а . і̄ d
▶Only after Rachel emerged did the panic on their faces ease, as if their backbone had returned.
Rachel noticed this and sighed inwardly.
Peace had lasted too long.
Now, many had lost the ability to resist or endure crises.
But this was no time to nitpick over such minor details.
ㄴOutside the door stood her deputy—a petite, sharply dressed woman with sweat on her forehead.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
「President! Something major just happened.」 The deputy lowered her voice and urgently reported the moment she saw Rachel.
「We’ve received intel—massive prison breaks and riots have erupted in the Upper District and Reef Prison! The inmates somehow broke their restraints and are now fiercely engaging the City Guard forces rushing to the scene!」
「At the same time, major explosions have occurred in several key locations throughout the city.」
Rachel’s pupils contracted. Her expression darkened considerably.
She wasn’t particularly worried about the prison break itself. Reef Prison had always been one of the most heavily guarded locations tied to Sena City, and it wasn’t even located within the city, but on a perilous island out at sea.
What made her frown were the simultaneous explosions happening across the city.
W̆ е̂ḃ nо vе l .Ě n ů ṁ а
Clearly, someone was orchestrating a secretive and nefarious scheme.
「Relay my command—immediately initiate Level One Alert status. Activate all defensive runes and seal all main exits. Also, establish direct contact with the central headquarters and maintain communication.」

She took a deep breath.
Then swiftly pointed out several people.
And headed downstairs with them.
At this moment, the adventurers inside the Adventurer’s Guild headquarters were staring at each other, expressions dazed.
Е̌ ń û m̃ а̄ . і́d
They had, of course, heard the loud explosion outside in the plaza just moments ago, loud and clear.
They were just having trouble processing it.
This was the Adventurer’s Guild, after all—the largest human organization in the world—and someone dared to attack this place directly?
Even a hundred lives wouldn’t be enough to cover that gamble.

「Knock knock knock!」
Just as many adventurers were frequently consulting the counter staff for information, and the hall was filled with anxious, confused murmurs—
Ѐ nu m̌а̀
A heavy, powerful sound, as if synced with each person’s heartbeat, echoed from the staircase leading to the upper floors.
All the adventurers couldn’t help but look toward the source of the sound.
They saw an exceptionally tall figure—far beyond the size of a normal human—descending step by step from the shadows of the staircase.
「It’s the President!」
「The President is here!」
Her unmistakably burly figure appeared, and naturally some adventurers recognized her instantly.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Only, those who saw her all instinctively shrank back.
At this moment, she was a far cry from the usual powerful, gentle President who often wore a radiant smile.
An oppressive pressure, as heavy as a mountain, radiated from her silently, spreading through every inch of the hall.
Even knowing that the object of her wrath wasn’t them, the adventurers still felt as if they were bound by invisible force fields—their breathing became labored, and their hearts pounded uncontrollably.
No one dared speak to her.
They silently watched her walk calmly toward the main entrance of the Adventurer’s Guild.
W̊_êb̌ n о ve l Ёn u̇ m̄ а̌
Everyone knew—the ones behind the explosions and riots were about to be in deep trouble.
They saw her palm touch the heavy main door inscribed with protective runes. Soon, the runes trembled slightly, and the door opened.

Once she stepped out, the door immediately closed again.
Outside the building lay the vast guild plaza.
Once paved with orderly tiles and adorned with statues symbolizing adventuring spirit and feats, the usually bustling plaza was now in complete disarray.
As if it had just been ravaged by a giant beast.
Ѐ nū m̊а
Near the tall tower of the Adventurer’s Guild headquarters, a large, charred crater stood out strikingly. Shattered tiles, stone chunks, and dirt had been blasted outward, reeking of sulfur and gunpowder.
The surrounding ornate statues had already been destroyed by the explosion’s shockwave, their fragments scattered across the ground.
Farther out were terrified civilians and Adele along with other high-ranking agents organizing guild members to tend to the wounded and fend off the perpetrators.
Rachel stood silently in the plaza, calmly scanning the devastation.

Then, her assistant handed over a pair of mithril gauntlets.
She reached out and put them on.
Ē n̄ úm̊ä
「No matter who’s behind this… you’ve crossed the line.」
She donned the gauntlets.
The very next moment—the ground beneath her feet abruptly collapsed, exploding outward like a giant spiderweb.
Her body launched like a cannonball.
In just the blink of an eye, she had broken the sound barrier, traversed over a hundred meters, and descended directly into the heart of the battlefield.
「BOOM!!!」
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
A warrior man with a fish-scaled head was seized by the skull—smashed downward—and his head exploded like a watermelon!
Time seemed to freeze.
But Rachel didn’t stop.
Her body launched again.
Rapidly closing in on the group of perpetrators wielding some sort of alchemical devices!
She moved like she was gliding just above the ground, streaking forward at blinding speed.
Е num̊ а́. і d
When she reached her target, her body came to an immediate halt—shifting from motion to stillness in a manner completely defying logic. All kinetic and potential energy seemed to vanish without a trace.
She was so fast, others hadn’t even reacted yet.

Their faces were still twisted with feral, excited grins.
Rachel extended a finger. Before it even touched the target’s neck, the neck snapped like a broken wheat stalk—a head flew off.
「BOOM BOOM BOOM!」
Time resumed.
Е̂ n ū ḿ a
As the onlookers began to grasp what was happening and turned to check their surroundings—
They were stunned to discover that many figures had already vanished from the open ground.
In the center of the plaza stood a powerfully built woman wearing gauntlets, blood dripping from her fists.
Splattering onto the ground like blooming roses.

「Battlefield Rose—Barefist Rachel!」
In the distance, a man who appeared to be the commander gulped, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
W̄ ӗ b́ nŏ v̂ el Е̌ n̆um̀ а̄
Although they had known beforehand that this was her turf and had mentally prepared themselves, when truly facing such a lethal, battle-hardened machine of slaughter, the sheer physiological pressure still made their brains spasm uncontrollably.
Even more terrifying—
That war goddess of a madwoman tilted her head and expressionlessly locked eyes with the spot he was hiding.
「Who sent you?」
Rachel spoke.
She felt that everything about today was just a little too coincidental.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
She had only decided the day before yesterday to give Gauss special training today. Logically, very few people should have known.
And that special training room was her personal chamber—
A space relatively isolated from the outside world. The upside was that it was hard for outside forces to interfere with anything going on inside. The downside was that it was equally hard for those inside to detect what was happening outside.
And yet, by sheer "coincidence," the attackers launched an assault on the Adventurer’s Guild during this brief window when she was training Gauss.
ㄴThe moment she stepped out, she could tell—the goal of these suicide attackers was the Adventurer’s Guild building itself. Fortunately, the tower had some form of defensive mechanism that diverted the explosion’s energy outward into the plaza.
Was it an attack targeting the Adventurer’s Guild, a coordinated strike with the prison riot—or…
Ẇ è b̂nо ṽ e̊ĺ E̊n̄ u m ӑ
Her thoughts drifted back to the training room.
Upon hearing Rachel’s question, the commander trembled all over, his face draining of color.

He tried to curl his lips into a sneer and open his mouth to spit a harsh line, but the moment air reached his throat and met Rachel’s emotionless stare—
It was like he had lost the ability to speak.
He glanced sideways at the inside of his loose robe.
Rachel shook her head.
Е̌n̊ũ m а
Her figure instantly vanished from the spot. In the next breath, she appeared directly before the commander.
Her speed surpassed the limit of visual capture—so to onlookers, it felt like teleportation.
Her right hand precisely clamped down on his wrist, just as he reached for something.
Trying to trigger a mechanism?
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
No chance.
「Crack!」
Ẃ еb n о v_е́l Е ń ŭ m̄ а̀
A tooth-aching crunch of bones breaking sounded.
His wrist was crushed.
Then the rest of his limbs were dismantled, jaw dislocated—
In a single instant, he lost almost all mobility.
「Hm?」
Just as Rachel was about to restrain him for interrogation and extract more intel—

She suddenly noticed her target had already lost all signs of life.
「No… that’s not an alchemical bomb!」
Her speed had been more than enough. Normally, the enemy shouldn’t have had any time to react—not even to commit suicide.
And her actions had been tightly controlled—not at a fatal level.
So this abrupt death had to be part of a pre-arranged contingency.
Sure enough, she sensed light beginning to radiate from the target’s body.
W̊ еb̈ n oṽе̊l̀ Е́ num̂а̃
Blinding light expanded outward!
Too late!
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The change happened far too suddenly.
No time to think—no time to weigh better solutions.
She could only react on pure instinct. In the next second, the muscles of her right leg—strong as a siege ram—instantly swelled and tensed like steel springs.
The already cracked ground beneath her exploded again.
W̌ е̄ḃ n o v̈ е̊ l E n ům ȧ
Then, her slightly curled waist and abdominal core erupted with terrifying power. Her body became a fully drawn bow—
Her sleek, polished right leg swept upward from below in a powerful high kick infused with her entire body’s explosive strength—
「BOOM!!!」
A deep, cannon-like explosion resounded!
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The corpse didn’t seem kicked but rather struck by an invisible heavy cannon.
The body shot vertically into the sky at a speed that defied the limits of human perception, turning into a blur of light.
W̃ ё bnо̊ v̊ ě l̂ Ënů ṁ ă
Friction from the air ignited the body before it could even explode—
trailing flames behind it like a comet tail.
「BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!」
Rachel’s kick caused a sonic boom.
In an instant, the body had soared one to two hundred meters into the air.
Before it could climb any higher—

A blinding fireball, massive and searing like a mini sun, suddenly erupted in midair!
The deafening explosion rang across the streets.
A violent shockwave spread outward in a sphere, whipping everyone’s clothes, knocking people off their feet. Dust and debris swirled into the sky.
Burning fragments and scorched flesh rained down.
Everyone in the plaza was struck dumb by the sudden, horrifying scene.
Lingering fear, relief, panic, awe, and admiration swirled through the crowd.
Е nu mа̄
Rachel had used her overwhelming strength to neutralize a devastating suicide bombing.
She scanned the surroundings.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Her figure flashed several times, working with other Professionals to swiftly take down the remaining attackers.
Fortunately, after that earlier massive blast, the rest of the enemies were just small fry. Under her lead, they were swiftly subdued.
But even in the face of this victory, her heart remained unshaken.
Because she had already guessed—these easily-captured attackers were nothing more than disposable pawns with no intel.
Ӗ ǹ u m̂а̇
The real source of information… had already died in that explosion.
Her hawk-like gaze swept the entire scene.
Looking at the still-terrified civilians, Rachel raised her clenched right fist. A bright, somewhat goofy smile reappeared on her face.
「Everyone disperse, the crisis is over!」
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Sunlight glinted off her mithril-covered fist, radiating brilliance.
The steady, pillar-like aura emanating from her instantly restored confidence in the crowd.

「Long live President Rachel!」
「President is the strongest!」
ㄴA meticulously orchestrated assault was crushed on the spot.
Not long after, Arya and the others also arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild plaza.
They all knew that Gauss was supposed to be here today, so when they heard where the disturbance came from, they grew deeply concerned.
Standing among the crowd, President Rachel—acting as a pillar of reassurance—immediately spotted the three's worried expressions.

She naturally recognized their identities.
With a gentle expression, she waved toward the trio.
「You’re… President Rachel?」
Just like Gauss earlier, Arya and the others technically hadn’t met her.
But Gauss had vented to them about Rachel’s monstrous physical strength before,
so the moment they saw her, they instinctively associated her with the “monster” Gauss had described.
Ẃ ĕ bǹov̌еl̈ Е́ nù m̈ а
「That’s right. You must be Gauss’s teammates, yes?」
「We came to find Gauss. He’s not hurt, is he?」 Arya looked at the devastation around her and, not seeing Gauss anywhere, recalled that he came to find Rachel today—but he wasn’t by her side now. She couldn’t help but gulp.

Her heart was in turmoil.
She truly hadn’t expected that even in a supposedly safe city, such high-level combat could erupt—and right next to the Adventurer’s Guild, no less.
「Don’t worry. He’s in my room—very safe, and currently undergoing a breakthrough.
The battle just now happened outside.」 Rachel bent down and rested her unarmored right hand on Arya’s shoulder.

The size difference between them was enormous.
Arya looked like a tiny doll before her.
「That’s a relief.」 Arya exhaled.
The heavy weight in the trio’s hearts finally lifted.

「If you’re still uneasy, once I’m done handling things here, I’ll take you up to see him.」
She still couldn’t leave just yet—her presence was needed here.
W̆еb̃ ňӧvе̇.l̂ É n̄ ûm̃ а̂.
「We’d appreciate that very much.」
Arya was, indeed, still a little anxious.
Fortunately, Shadow and Serandur were waiting nearby.
The Adventurer’s Guild was highly efficient.
Very quickly, the rubble and obstacles caused by the explosion were cleared away.
Once Rachel received confirmation from the central headquarters that the crisis had been resolved, she also let out a breath of relief.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The unrest in the rest of the city had also been swiftly addressed at the same time.
This time, the instigators of the chaos were, once again, primarily humans with Sea-folk blood.
In other words—she had already sensed it coming.
This wasn’t the end—only the beginning.
Ordinary humans’ tolerance toward such hybrids would only grow thinner.
Eventually, even good, kind-hearted hybrids would become targets.
Ěn ům̃ a .і d
But even if she was fully aware of this, there was no way she could stop the trend.
Someone was deliberately pushing this situation forward.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Were they trying to create chaos in order to seize some kind of gain?
Despite her heavy thoughts, Rachel maintained a calm expression as she led Arya and the others to the training room where Gauss was.
Gauss had not been disturbed at all by the earlier commotion outside.
The isolation effect here was exceptional.
Е̄ n̄ǔ mӓ
Or rather, he himself was in such an intensely immersed state that it was almost impossible to interrupt him.
At this moment, a sharp, cutting aura around him had already reached its peak.
