Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

"Oh come on!" Unfortunately, that last level was just too hard to overcome.

He wanted to get another game in, but his watch suddenly beeped. It's already been an hour since the Saviors went inside the Remedium and judging from previous missions, he judged that the mission was almost finished.

After all, it was only a 1st stage Student difficulty mission. It usually only took one hour.

However, time passed by and no one came outside. It's now two hours since they entered.

Then, three. Then, four.

At this point, the soldier was very worried. He wondered if something had gone wrong with the mission.

But that can't be…it's only a beginner mission…

He would have reported this to the HeadQuarters but when he looked around towards the affected area, he saw that the symptoms already stopped. The walls no longer melted like wax and no more buildings were toppling like melted ice cream.

This meant that the Saviors already killed the Canzer.

However, they still didn't leave.

Just for safety, he was going to request for backup. I don't care if I get scolded for a false report. This is getting weird.

But just as he was about to call, he suddenly heard the sound of water rippling. Somebody went out of the portal!

He looked back and saw a youth with black hair and black eyes come out of the Remedium. The soldier recognized him to be the Porter of the group.

The soldier looked down and his eyes widened. The youthful Porter was holding a bleeding man in his arms!

It was Sir Neumann, the veteran Savior who accompanied the novices. His green battle suit was soaked in blood and his eyes were cloudy and unresponsive. Most of all, his guts and intestines were coming out of a large hole in his stomach!

"What happened?!" the soldier screamed but the porter didn't answer. He simply put Neumann on the floor.

Just then, another person came out of the portal. It was the Stun Wizard. She held her shoulders, shivering from the cold and trauma she experienced.

She saw the soldier and begged, "Call for help! Please!"

The soldier was overwhelmed. He couldn't take his eyes off Neumann, who was still bleeding on the floor. "O…okay…I'll…I'll call!"

He quickly dialed on his phone and issued an emergency. In just a few moments, reinforcements would come.

"What happened?"

The stun wizard muttered under her breath. "The Canzers…there's more…the report was wrong! There was another one…a different monster!"

The soldier gasped. From what he could piece together from her words, it seemed like the mission was wrongly estimated. There were more Canzers than what was reported. And what's worse, there's another type of Canzer inside that they didn't prepare for.

"This is a disaster. Okay, I've already reported this to HeadQuarters. Wait here and they'll come and save the others—Hey! Where are you going?!"

The soldier was surprised when he suddenly saw Atlan walk back to the Remedium.

What is he doing?! Doesn't he know that there are stronger Canzers inside?

"Miss, don't you dare go too."

Thankfully, the stun wizard didn't seem to have any thoughts of going back inside.

The soldier bit his lips as he paced back and forth. After the stun wizard explained to him what happened inside, he couldn't help but worry for the porter. After all, things were much worse than he thought possible.

The appearance of a new Canzer, one that showed intelligence, was far too much than what a 1st stage student team could face.

Even if the team could fight the new Canzer, without the proper equipment from the Operators, the Canzer would continue to regenerate its injuries. It would be an unwinnable situation.

Just then, Atlan came out of the portal with two bodies slung over his shoulders. This time, it's the Scout and the Archer! They were bleeding and groaning in pain.

After putting them down on the floor, Atlan came back to the Remedium to get the others.

The soldier couldn't believe it. Even after knowing that there were dangerous Canzers in the Remedium, Atlan still braved the unknown and went to save his teammates. It was a very noble and heroic action. His impression of this youth skyrocketed as the soldier respected his bravery.

The stun wizard watched Atlan re-enter the Remedium with a calm look on his face. Even after she warned him that the monster was aiming to kill him, Atlan still went back without any fear in his eyes.

None of them knew that the Sapient Canzer was already done and dusted. It was already killed. There were no more monsters he had to worry about in the Remedium.

But that didn't mean that it was safe. After all, Atlan had no idea if the Remedium could suddenly change its layout randomly and trap him inside forever.

Back then, when he went down the shrouded path, he saw himself in a large space with a domed ceiling. He saw his teammates sprawled all around, either unconscious or groaning in pain.

He helped the stun wizard and Neumann and they walked back from where he came. Luckily, the layout didn't change and he was able to go up the stairs back to the surface. The exit was coincidentally just a few steps away from the portal.

Now, he had the tank and the pugilist on his shoulders. He walked back up to the surface and suddenly saw something out of the corner of his eyes.

It was the backpack he carried at the start of the mission.
