"Well, well, well… What do we have here?" Erwin stood on top of his thread while looking at the incoming beasts.
He was alone in this block, but it didn’t really matter since he had filled this area with his wires.
There were a few beasts that could produce a similar thing, such as the spider, but his job was simply to stall them.
"Come, come!" Erwin waved his hand, provoking the beasts.
"Reee!" The Tier 4 spider gave a command out of anger. The beasts became frenzied as they charged straight ahead.
There was one of the fastest beasts that was trying to take the initiative.
It saw the wire in front and hurriedly leaped into the air to avoid it, only to get sliced by a thin, sharp wire that was hard to see with naked eyes.
Noticing what the wires were capable of, more and more beasts charged forward, but this time, they were coming together.
They used the toughness of their skin to actually push the wires.
One of the wires was quite thick, causing the building it was attached to to collapse. Meanwhile, there were a lot of thin wires that ended up snapping.
Seeing that his territory was gradually diminishing, Erwin actually smiled.
As soon as they came deep enough, Aileen jumped off the building. Only a few beasts could faintly sense her presence.

"Beast Soul." Aileen took a deep breath before moving through six beasts, leaving behind numerous cuts.
"Rawrr?!"
A lot of beasts were confused as they suddenly felt unimaginable pain. One died instantly, and two were severely injured.
"Ree!" The Tier 4 spider noticed Aileen and shot out a web to capture her.
However, Erwin tossed a small tube that shot out wires to two sides, causing the cobweb to hit it instead of Aileen.
At the same time, Aileen grabbed one of the wires to stop her momentum and launched herself back toward the beasts.
Another two beasts died this time as she grabbed the wire again, ready to launch herself in a new direction.
Now that she was inside the wire, her movement was actually like that of a fish that had just entered the water.
Just like how Erwin had been observing her closely, she had also been watching him. In fact, she had imagined herself doing this multiple times and just thought she couldn’t do it because of Erwin’s pride.
She had to thank Clovis since that barrier had disappeared after her defeat in the tournament. Now that Erwin had joined Libation Fiesta, she could freely use these wires.
"Ree!"
The spider ordered the beasts to destroy the wires first. The spider even went all the way to shoot its web toward Erwin, but the spider didn’t realize that Aileen had erased her presence once more.
Right after Erwin jumped off the wire to avoid the web, the spider sensed an incoming presence from the left.
"!!!" The spider tried to get away, but it was one step too late.
Aileen slid down underneath the spider’s body and slashed the spinneret.
"Reee!" The spider was screeching in pain. It tried to stop Aileen from leaving, but the latter had disappeared again.
She was going back to the killing zones that were about to be destroyed.
At the same time, Erwin also came forward and waved both hands, sending forth sharp wires. Each hand captured a beast, which ended up dying as soon as Erwin made a clutching motion.
"I won’t let you take the spot—" Erwin wanted to say something cool before he saw Aileen’s coming toward him. He hurriedly raised both arms, allowing Aileen’s feet to actually step on the arms. "Oi!"
Aileen actually used Erwin as a footing to launch herself toward another group of beasts and kill them. "Teamwork!"
Aileen reached one of the wires again, ready to grab it. However, there was one beast that didn’t die from her attack, standing right behind her.
Roar!
However, another wave of wires wrapped the beast from behind and sliced it into pieces. Somehow, one of the wires ended up passing the beast and catching Aileen’s ankle.
"Hya!" Aileen’s momentum abruptly stopped, causing her to fall face first.
"!!!" Aileen hurriedly raised her head. "You…"
"Teamwork, hehehe…" Erwin chuckled. Of course, he only did it because there were no beasts around her. And he also knew that Aileen could actually grab the wire instead of using his arms to launch her earlier.
Aileen clicked her tongue while moving toward another enemy. "No one likes a petty man."
"But you fall for my charm, including this pettiness. I wonder if that makes you an M." said Erwin while crushing a beast’s head with a kick.
"I’m going to settle this once we’re back. Hmph!" Aileen harrumphed while killing another one.
"I won’t stop even if you cry." Erwin snorted as he punched a beast’s head.
The Tier 4 spider was completely confused. He was fighting a couple who were actually quarreling in the middle of the fight. However, for some reasons, these two were actually moving around it, maintaining a certain distance while killing the rest of the beasts as if they could each other’s minds.
And it didn’t take too long for them to actually kill the rest of the beasts. They even landed on the same spot once they were done.
"You’ve gotten stronger," said Aileen with a smile.
"Once I become Tier 4, I can defeat you." Erwin harrumphed.
"Before thinking about reaching Tier 4, there is one Tier 4 that you need to defeat first." Aileen pointed at the last beast in this area.
"Indeed. Let’s kill it together." Erwin nodded with a serious expression.
Aileen smiled as both of them were walking toward the spider. There was only one beast left.
The two battlefields progressed smoothly, but there was one battle that actually produced the opposite result.
Bam!
Two guys were slammed to the wall. One of them rolled a few times and stopped not far from the rubble, while the other was kneeling on the floor.
"Kh." Jay raised his head, looking at the Tier 5 spider. He was able to land in a much better position because Ragna used his body to absorb the impact. However, the situation was still worse. "What kind of strength is this? Is the gap between Tier 4 and Tier 5 this big? To think that even with both of us, we can’t even stop a single attack…"
