"The armor is pinnacle-tier, and with its two elements, it is something never seen on Earth before!" Coin gave good news cheerfully.

"A pinnacle-tier armor. How lucky I am!" Miles jumped on and looked at the screen.

Coin was recording and streaming at the same time, so Miles was looking at himself. The armor was maroon in color and had dark blue lines. It covered from head to toe, and only Miles's eyes were visible.

"It is perfect for me to hide my identity." Miles said after he checked himself.

"Why do you want to hide your identity? Not many people know you anyway." Coin asked.

"You saw Porseila the other day. If she knows my identity, the rest of the stronghold will also know soon enough. I don't wanna be the star of it, so altering my identity is all I need at the moment." Miles explained his thoughts. He left his old life because he didn't want to be known. He didn't want people to treat him special because he was a Cross.

"That makes sense. But I am too distinguishable" Coin said. There were other wristwatches gold in color, but people would eventually connect the dots if both Miles and his alter identity wore the same wristwatch.

"It is no problem at all. Check this." Miles grabbed Coin and wrapped it around his arm. Then he willed it, and the armor opened and covered over Coin.

Only the necessary parts were left out. The rest was covered by the maroon armor.

"It is fine then. But you have to be careful not to give away anything about your identity." Coin said, and continued, "The orbs you use, the techniques you use should all be different than what your 'Alter' uses. I will help you keep track of them."

"Thanks buddy." Miles thanked Coin.

"Have you thought of a name?" Coin asked.

"Nah, not yet." Miles thought of a few names but wasn't sure yet. What would be the best alter name?

"How about Coin?" Coin asked.

"I will have to think further on that one. Yea, no. It would give away my cover immediately." Miles denied it brutally.

"I know, I was just joking." Coin shrugged it off.

"Have you downloaded all the information?" Miles then asked.

"Yes, we are good to go. What should we do with the room?" Coin asked. Miles thought of a few things, but, in the end, decided on something 'safe'.

"Seal the room, and prevent anyone from entering. If they somehow break in, blow up everything without hurting people." Miles instructed.

"Got it." Coin had full control of the room now, and anything inside of the room was his. They didn't take bolts and other trap equipment. Miles wasn't sure of their safety. There could be physical traps that even Coin couldn't stop and would blow them up if they were to be taken away. So, Miles didn't want to risk it.

After they cleared out the room, they left the corridor and appeared on the mountain top once again. The ridge slide door closed, and it was as if there was nothing there.

Miles then looked around and noticed that it was around noon now. He was about to turn around and see if the wolves were still there, but a sudden screech distracted his attention.

Miles looked around to see the source of the screech and saw a giant bird flying towards him. Behind the giant bird, there was a forest going as far as the eye could see, but at some point, the mist was blocking the view.

When the sun shone through the mist, Miles saw something in a far distance. They were pyramids-like structures.

However, due to the mist covering them, it was only for a second, so Miles wasn't so sure. Maybe it was a mountain, Miles mixed with pyramids.

Miles shook his head and focused on the giant bird flying towards him.

"What is that, Coin?" Miles asked as he started to run away.

"A Cloud Eagle, at least Frenzy-Rank. Wait. RUN!" Coin hurried him to run.

"What the hell is that doing in here?" Miles did not wait for an answer and immediately jumped to the closest tree, from branch to branch, until he landed on the ground.

Wolves were still waiting for Miles, and when they saw him, they all pounced on him. It was then they all froze in mid-air when the giant eagle appeared behind Miles. They all turn tail and run.

Miles was among the running wolves, but no one attacked. They were all escaping.

"Cloud Eagles are choosy eaters. They only feed on apes. It's nest must be close to the mountain top." Coin told Miles about Cloud Eagle.

"He thinks I am a hairy monkey?" Miles was offended but still ran away. He was as nimble as a monkey and went left to right between trees.

At this point, the wolves realized the eagle was only interested in Miles, so they tried to keep their distance from him, but Miles didn't let them go. When they ran, Miles ran after them.

When the eagle realized that its prey wasn't a helpless monkey, and could escape from it, it started to be more aggressive. Its wings flapped stronger, and wind-currents started to gather in front of it. They were condensing and creating a whirlwind.

"Dodge it, or it will blow you away." Coin said.

"I know!" Miles shouted and dodged behind a tree.

The whirlwind hit the tree and uprooted it from the ground. The massive tree and the dirt attached to it flew in the air.

Miles's back went cold when he saw the scene. If the whirlwind had hit him instead, he would be shrouded to pieces by the sheer force of it.

He ran with everything he had, leaving the wolves behind. He couldn't do it a day before, but now he was much faster than the wolves. It wasn't because he got faster but because firstly, the wolves weren't restraining him. Secondly, the armor had more effect than protecting.

Miles felt like he was riding on lightning. If he could run 50 km/h before, now he was running at 90 to 100 km/h. Wolves couldn't catch up with him anymore, and even the insects were late to react as Miles ran.

In a short time, Miles ran back down to the outer zone of the Insect Kingdom.

Even though the Cloud Eagle was obstinate, it knew it shouldn't approach a stronghold. After crying behind Miles and cursing in bird language, it soared to the sky and left.

Miles collapsed to the ground and panted. The wolves came right behind him, and they all also collapsed. They looked at Miles like they were wronged, but they had no energy to attack.

"That eagle must be the danger in the mountain. All the humans that went there probably died in its claws." Coin said while Miles was panting.

"But there were humans at Form-Rank who went to check there. Can't they fight against the eagle?" Miles asked.

"You were lucky because you had the armor, but that Eagle was faster than a person who had a four Strengthening Serum. You know how hard it is to have stronger serums the higher it gets. Even though their superpowers reached the Form-Rank, their bodies were still weak." Coin explained to Miles.

"I will return for that damned eagle one day. Also, I want to see something there." Miles said with the last part to himself.

"Hey, Coin. Did you see the pyramids beyond the mist while we were at the top of the mountain?" Miles asked.

"No, all I could detect was the mist." Coin answered.

"Must be my imagination."
