Meanwhile somewhere in the woods far away from the sibling scuffle.

The trio made it out of the thick woods and into a clearing. They ended up in the clearing when there were signs of damaged branches and deep hoof marks that are surely coming from their target. There it is, a large boar taller than a horse, with sharp thick tusks that are a meter long. It's sipping water by a clear pond.

"It's huge…" Alex commented. With Sal nodding in agreement.

"At first glance, we already know this is the Boar we were looking for. It really doesn't look different from a normal boar other than it's size." Sal noted with the Boar not noticing the presence of the three.

"This is a youngling correct? It shouldn't develop tusks that big until full maturity…" Lea felt anxious at the sight of the beast. Not from how it looks on its exterior but from the knowledge she has read about how dangerous even the young ones are.

"Let's go." Alex stated bluntly. He went ahead of the two, summoning a transparent white sword of light. His body lightly coated in the same light, taking the shape of full body armor yet transparent like the sword.

"W-Wait!" Lea stuttered out and attempted to go after Alex before Sal extended her arm to stop Lea. "Sal? What are you doing?"

"He's already set on what he's gonna do." Sal looked at Lea with a bit of a smile. "Let's give him some support so he won't get too badly hurt. Help me find some big rocks" Sal grabbed Lea's arm and dragged her into the woods to find any large rocks or boulders.

Alex felt tense. This was the first time he's fighting a megafauna. "Stay calm. You trained for this. Stay calm me." He thought to himself, assuring his worries and to focus. He trained for 5 years to do this so it's too late to be nervous now, Alex gripped his blade to cease any hints of shaking from nervousness. "Alright...I'm ready." He took a deep breath and leaped up into the air with all his strength, leaving behind a deep mark from where he stood. He jumped 4 meters in the air, he did a quick spin and threw his sword at the drinking boar. It seemed illogical to throw a sword, but he created it from his own power, defying the logic and drag but leaving the velocity of his throws is possible. The ability to create and control the weapons inherited from his mother, The Essence of Blades.

The blade pierced through the hide yet all that strength just pierced the thick hide and only a little bit of its flesh. If it can be compared he basically threw a needle that just pricked the Boar. It squealed from the prick as it quickly turned its whole body around and snorted.

"GHYIIIIII!!!!" It let out a piercing, deep squeal as it stood up and flailed its hoofs and slammed down. Alex has angered the boar as its tail flicked so sharply it made a loud snap similar to a whip. The sword stuck on the Boar's wound vanished into sparkling dust.

He descended down on the ground, summoning another weapon in almost an instant. It was a mace made of white light, transparent like the sword he threw. He landed down on the ground to only leap forward with the same force. Dashing towards the boar as the Boar charged. The distance between the two grew shorter and clashing appears imminent.

Alex quickly strafed to avoid the head-on charge which resulted in the boar to turn, skidding across the dirt to leave deep marks to continue charging towards him at the speed of a galloping horse. He jumped above the Boar, landing on its back.

"Take this!" He growled and started pummelling the boar with his mace, striking rapidly as the boar squealed more in annoyance than in pain.

"Ghuhih!" The boar snorted out as it bucked back and forth as Alex dropped his mace and grabbed on onto the boars back. He yelped as he was swinging around from the Boar's bucking before it stopped, giving Alex a breather. Only to change its bucking to shaking its body around, making him swing sideways. This time he couldn't hold on for long and was thrown onto the soft ground, dropping his shield from the fall.

"Aaaahhh-! Gufh!" He grunted out as he tumbled down. The shield and mace turned to dust once it was out of his hand. He recovered as he looked at the Boar who turned to him. It dug it's hoof, digging the soil as it dropped its head deep into the ground. It's tusks pointing as it charged at him, bulldozing the earth that large clumps of dirt, gravel, and rocks along with it.

Alex quickly avoided its tusk ram by quickly circling around it. "Focus!" He screamed in his head and summoned an opaque flaming sword that floated in mid-air. Much like he can create a weapon to wield he can create a weapon that he doesn't need to wield with his hands. He summoned another one made of fire, and another, summoning 6 blades of fire around him and all blades pointed at the Boar. "Go!" He swung his hand forward as the blades zipped towards the boar at the same speed the way he threw his sword previously at it.

The boar rose its head at the ground and it squealed from its flesh being punctured by 6 blades at the side of its large body. What hurt most was the blade burning its flesh as if being pricked by a needle burning till its white-hot. It's annoying and painful as the boar swung its head and tossed the pile of rubble it dug up to Alex.

"Hgh!" He grunted as he soon realized it wasn't trying to run him over. But piling up dirt and rocks to pelt it at him with. He raised his arms together to guard himself, summoning a transparent white rectangular shield that covered his whole body as the clumps of dirt and rocks were flung at a shockingly powerful throw where he grunted when it clashed against the shield. "Ghh! This thing really is smarter than it looks." He complained as he felt the sudden impact that almost broke his arms and shattered the shield he used. It was the boar running at full speed towards him.

He was too focused on guarding that he didn't realize that the boar was charging towards him. "Gahh!" He yelped in pain as he was knocked away and crashed onto the ground, leaving a trail and small mound of dirt that piled up. "Agh… My arms…getting numb..." Yet he continued to fight. Standing up and looking at the boar, the swords clung on it still. They are ones he made that are fully powered and lasted longer. It burned its flesh from inside but it looks like the boar is enduring the pain.

The boar charged at him again, this time it didn't lower its head to pile up more things to throw at him. It's trying to impale him with its tusks as its head is turned a bit so one of its tusks is pointing at him. Then it squealed, as was struck in the head by a thrown boulder that was 3 foot wide, forcing it to tumble down and fall on its side where the blades are, making them sink further into its flesh from the fall as it flailed in pain. "GHYIII!!!"

Alex looked at where the boulder was tossed to see Sal picking up another boulder with Lea exhaustingly rolling another one for her to throw. "Is that all you got Sharky? C'mon stand up! Were not done 'till this thing stops moving!"

"Hahh…what….what she said…" Lea attempted to say supportive words but was too tired to think of anything. She slumped on the boulder she rolled to take a short breather.

Alex simply smiled that he's glad to have friends that he can fight with. He's fueled with vigor that his whole armor grew opaque. The armor giving him strength doubled over his own. He stood up and dusted his armor off. "Thanks!" He summoned an opaque flaming halberd as he sprinted with great speed towards the flailing boar as he struck its body with the axe with all his strength, the flaming blade piercing through the hide and singing its flesh. He lifted the halberd's spear tip to puncture the board deeper. "Haaah!" He exclaimed as he drove the halberd further into its flesh.

"UHGIHYY!!!!" The Megaboar's now feeling the pain. Once it stood, Alex stepped back and summoned a flaming axe and white kite shield.

"Lea!" Sal looked at Lea who started to stand up and pick up her staff.

"I know! I know!" She stood up and patted her skirt a bit. "Durability, Force, Impact." She chanted the three spells quickly as she prepared her staff and herself, looking almost like a batter. "I'm ready…"

Sal smiled and threw the boulder up into the air. Lea analyzed how she tossed the boulder and predicted when it would land within swinging distance. Lea moved back a bit, to be safe and to get the perfect strike. It descends and she focused. "HUP!" She swung her staff and the boulder immediately flew over faster than how Sal threw. Halfway through flying the boulder crumbled and broke apart into shards of sharp stones as the stones punctured and sunk into the thick hide and into its flesh as if being shot by a shotgun.

"Nice swing!" Sal gave Lea a quick thumbs up and playfully giving her a punch on the shoulder which resulted in Lea knocked down from her punch.

"Ufgh!" She blurted out and slowly recovered. "Th-Thanks..." she stuttered, using her staff as a cane to help her stand up. She rubbed her shoulder.

The Boar squeaked out in the pain of the stones digging into its flesh and started to stomp on the ground. "GHYIIIIIGHHHH!!!!" It let out a piercing high pitched squeal louder than the first time. Sal and Lea covered their ears from its painful cry.

"My ears!" Lea groaned as the noise ringed into her covered ears.

"It's close to dying now if it's screaming that loud!" Sal stated as she grits her teeth from the ear-splitting screech.

"Whaaat?!" Lea exclaimed

"What?!" Sal repeated Lea’s question as both couldn't hear each other from the noise and their covered ears filtering their own.

"Damn that's loud!" Alex was closer to the Boar and was feeling more of that pain as he had to drop his weapons to cover his ears and distanced himself away from the Boar.

It stopped its cry as it stomped the ground one more time. The boar suddenly bulked up in size, becoming a meter taller, the swords and halberd jutting out from the boar tightening and pushing its muscles to pull out the lodged and burning weapons. The weapons popped out as the open wounds leaked a thick ooze of darkened and burning blood caused from the heat of the weapons that punctured its flesh, with the halberd wound gushing a thick amount of it before it died down.

"What the..." Alex saw its growth in size as he resummoned what he initially held.

"Finally it stopped screaming." Sal said relief as she picked her ears. "And it looks like it's going all out."

"Then let's help Alex finish it off!"

"Way ahead of ya. Blast me to the Boar!" She picked up a boulder and presented her back to Lea. "Make sure to hit the shield so I won't get too hurt." She prepared herself and braced her back.

Lea was being a bit hesitant. But knowing the two well her hesitation was brief. "All right."

Alex steadied himself, gripping his axe and clutching his shield. It got bigger and Alex was getting a bit drained. Yet he continued. Alex ran to the side and rushed at the Boar, slicing its leg but the axe didn't even cut the hide, but it did leave a singing burn mark where he slashed his axe. "It got thicker!" He exclaimed in his head.

The Boar quickly turned around to use its hind legs to harshly kick Alex. Alex blocked the attack but the shield once again shattered and felt something in his arm snap as he's knocked away from the force of the kick and dropped into the ground.

His axe dropped as he fell down and laid on the ground. "Nghr!!" He grunted in excruciating pain, clutching onto his arm. My arm!" His arm dislocated as it couldn't handle the focused and powerful kick of the enraged Boar as he grits his teeth.

The Boar turned again to Alex, dead set on targeting him as the closest threat as it charged at him, once it neared it lifted up its whole body to finish him off by trampling down with its front legs.

At the last second, Sal is seen flying at a fast speed. "Hold on Sharky!" She exclaimed mid-flight. She lifted the boulder she held, getting closer and closer to the boar as she hurled the boulder up close to the boar, striking it straight into its eye as it crumbled apart from the point-blank impact. It squealed in pain as it began to fall down. "I'm not over yet!" She clutched the ear of the Boar. "Strength Two!" She exclaimed as her body's enveloped in a red glow, her strength quadrupling.

"Hraghhh!!!!" She screamed. She yanked the boar, tugging it to fall off to the other side to show its other eye, pulling out her sword to immediately impale the Boar with her sword straight to the hilt. The sound of snapping bones as the sword pierced through its armor-like skull and impaled its injured eye at the other side. She got off of the Boar, harshly kicking its head to use it as a springboard to leap beside Alex, helping him up as the glow outlining her body disappeared. "You okay Sharky?"

If he wasn't in so much pain right now he would be extremely happy that Sal saved him. "Yeah—gh!" He winced from the pain. "Maybe not..." he lets go of his arm as it was disconnected from the elbow.

"We'll get you some wood to grit on and I'll pop it back for you later." Sal started to pant and grow fatigued. "Mgh...enhancements really take a toll on your body; I'm winded out." That moment she did was her giving it her all right there, using all of her mana and physical strength to its limit to even perform that act.

The Boar squealed and cried out as it flailed into the ground, struggling that it cannot see a thing with its skull fractured from within the eye sockets and its eyes no longer functioning yet the pain was all there. It struggled and slammed its body on the ground, leaving mounds and a crater with its last breath.

"Finish him off Sharky." Sal patted his back as she involuntarily sat down from fatigue.

"Mh..." Alex turned off his armor and he focused. Summoning an opaque orange spear, he gripped it with his only functioning arm as he charged the spear. His body surrounded by dancing flames, his hair fluttering around caused by the fire surrounding him. The back of the spear suddenly lets a burst of flame as Alex clutched tighter to hold the spear, preventing it from letting go from his hold. Not yet at least.

"It's over you pig!" He shouted at the dying boar. "Rocket spear!!!" He exclaimed the ability's name as he threw the spear at a blinding speed that it pierced into the Boar's stomach, half of it entering its flesh and after the puncture the spear cracked and becoming unstable as it let out a harsh blast, leaving a massive chunk of the Boar's belly into cinders, revealing its ivory white ribs as the Boar finally ceased Its struggling as the Megaboar Youngling is dead

"It-...It's dead..." Lea softly spoke as she watched the sight of Alex's spear exploding and ending the Boar. She slowly smiled and started running to the two. "We did it! I can't believe it but we killed our first Beast!" Lea exclaimed once within hearing distance.

"Yeah..." Alex turned to the approaching Lea. "We di—Hyagh!" He suddenly screamed in pain from the sudden hug caused by Lea.

"You and Sal were awesome! At first, I was worried that you guys were gonna die but you proved me wrong by a long shot! I'm really sorry for doubting you, Alex!" She confessed, unaware of how his arm was dislocated when the Boar kicked him.

"Agha-hagh! L-Lea my arm! Let go! you're hugging my arm!" He wasn't prepared for a wide bear hug that he once again screamed until Sal joined in the Hug, making him scream louder. "Hiyaghh!!"

Lea was about to let go but was forced to hug tighter when Sal joined. "Sal...?"

"Don't worry about Sharky. C'mon let's do a group hug to celebrate our first kill!"

"Sal you bast—Aagh!!" He used most of his stamina in that attack and he doesn't have enough to get away from this excruciating bear hug.
