<Spool Back> did not affect the Axolotl monster because its memory was not reset like everyone else''s. Finally, Radmilo knew what the effect of his skill was. He was a little annoyed that the system did not tell him about it.


    However, he regained hisposure after thinking that the system not telling anything was also part of the skill''s effect. It seemed impossible if such a powerful skill only consumed his mana.


    ''Does this mean I have to find out for myself what the effects of that skill are?''


    Radmilo sighed. He had expected a huge effect from using his skill. Moreover, it was a rudimentary skill and did not even reach B-ss. His


    was A-ss skill and could not be called perfect.


    After he used


    , people would be in a daze and doubt their memories for a moment. If Radmilo could raise the skill ss, then such an effect would not exist. Because of that, he was not surprised if someone or something was notpletely affected by the <Spool Back> skill.


    "Why are you still standing there like an idiot?!"


    Radmilo immediately dodged when he saw Diane''s body flying toward him. The girl fell to the ground and got up with an irritated face, while the Axolotl that threw her gave a mocking smile.


    "Get out of the way!" Diane deliberately elbowed Radmilo, who did not get in her way. "I told you to leave! You''re an ordinary human. You''ll only trouble me if you stay here."


    That arrogance made Radmilo curse in his heart. Actually, he could have pretended to be dead from a monster attack and then gone elsewhere to expand his organization. However, he had to put up with Diane''s attitude as he nned to join the IRO.


    Just as he did in the past, he would also take the trust of the IRO and ess all information about them. The IRO had strong security. If someone who was not a member entered their zone, then the item ''Sleuth-Hound'' would notice it.


    Sleuth-Hound was a rare item that only the IRO had. The item could not be affected by any power, so Radmilo had no chance to use his skill. The only way was to be an official member of the IRO.


    "I''m sorry. I''ll be leaving now. Thanks for helping me."


    Diane snorted in response to Radmilo''s words, then she used her invisibility power and attacked the Axolotl again.


    Radmilo ignored the bad response and went in the direction Diane had pointed out earlier. For now, he had to be calm because IRO spies were all over the world. If they found anything suspicious or interesting about him, then they would report it to The Awakeners and Hunters Council.


    ''You can hear me, right?''


    The Axolotl that was parrying Diane''s sword attack immediately nodded, even though Radmilo could not see it. "Yes! Have you decided?"


    Diane saw the monster''s mouth move and became alert. She expected something woulde out of it, but it did not. All she could see now was the monster''s smile, which irritated her even more.


    At full speed, she jumped on top of the monster and shed her sword again. However, the attack failed as the Axolotl''s tail blew her away, forcing her to fall to the ground. She thought the monster did not have a quick reaction because some time ago she managed to cut off its head.


    "H-how do you know where I stand? I''m still using my power, you know!"


    Because she grew up with variouspliments, Diane would be surprised when the power she exalted could be defeated so easily. She became more curious about the Axolotl she was fighting. It was not a low-ss monster.


    While Diane tried to attack again, Radmilo continued hismunication with the Axolotl.


    ''I don''t want to raise monsters. They''re troublesome. But I''ll ept you if you do my request.''


    The Axolotl was thrilled to hear that, and its gills changed color from blue to red. While dodging Diane''s attack, the monster spoke, "Tell me what your want is!"


    ''Can you hit that girl''s mouth for me? If you crush all her teeth, then I''ll let you follow me.''


    "Sure. I can do it!"


    Even though Radmilo''s face looked calm, he smiled in his heart after hearing Axolotl''s answer. He was very annoyed with Diane''s words and wanted to make the girl unable to speak properly for some time.


    Radmilo met up with the others after walking quite a distance. They hid in a building that was not affected by the gate explosion. As soon as he got there, Carl was the first person who approached him.


    "Are you okay? I''m sorry for asking you toe here. If I didn''t ask you, then you wouldn''t be stuck here," Carl spoke when he saw Radmilo''s dirty clothes.


    "It''s not your fault," said Radmilo with a smile. "Nobody wanted this to happen. Therefore, stop ming yourself!"


    Before Carl responded, he immediately asked, "May I know what the hunters will do? Are you going to attack the monster as Miss Smith did?"


    Carl''s worried face instantly changed. He grabbed Radmilo''s shoulder and asked in a trembling voice, "D-Diane attacked that monster?"


    "After saving me, she went to attack the monster. Is it dangerous? I know nothing about that monster," Radmilo pretended to be confused by Carl''s reaction.


    He still maintained that expression as Carl quickly informed the hunters that Diane had attacked the Axolotl. Then, as expected, they immediately rushed over to help the girl.


    They had no intention of provoking the monster, but they had to fight because Diane had done it. Radmilo had to lure them into a fight because he did not want Keith Smith to suspect him. Keith would be suspicious when he found out that only his sister was injured.


    At the same time, the Axolotl was trying to attack Diane''s mouth. It was difficult because the Axolotl could sense the direction of her attack, but the monster could not tell where her mouth was since the girl used the power of invisibility.


    All the Axolotl could do was continue to attack Diane and wait for the girl to deactivate her power. In the end, Diane could not continue to use her power because her mana was drastically decreased. Just as she deactivated her power, the Axolotl''s tail moved toward her with incredible speed and pierced her mouth.


    Diane coughed hard before falling to the ground while trying to get the monster''s tail out of her mouth. Her breath hitched at that moment, and she thought she would lose consciousness. As her strength began to weaken, she heard a sword shing and the Axolotl''s tail came out of her mouth.


    "Are you all right, Miss Smith?" Jim, the one who shed the Axolotl''s tail, grinned at Diane.


    Then he continued, "You should know that dungeons are not training grounds when there aremoners here. Your actions today brought trouble to others. Didn''t you already know that the Axolotl would be aggressive if you attacked first?"


    Diane fell silent. She lost her teeth and her mouth received great damage. It made her speechless. Also, she felt Jim was right, so she would not argue even if her mouth was fine.


    "Take her to safety and treat her soon," Jim said, signaling Carl through his eyes.


    After Carl carried out his order, he kept his distance from the Axolotl and threw his sword into the sky. It was a trigger to use his power. He could sh anything without missing when using Perfect sh.


    Jim immediately caught his sword and then targeted his power at the Axolotl''s heart. The sword naturally made him move to sh the monster. However, the Axolotl could still regenerate even though its heart had been shed.


    "That monster can''t be defeated. What should we do?" A hunter asked while looking at the regenerating Axolotl. The monster recovered in seconds, rifying that no one could defeat it.


    "We have to keep it from attacking people," Jim said and shed the Axolotl that was jumping at him in two. "The rescue team wille soon and bring items to get us out of here. While waiting for them, we must do our best!"


    Jim''s words encouraged the hunters, who had lost their courage. They agreed to take turns holding the Axolotl''s attacks and waiting for the rescue team to arrive.


    Meanwhile, the Axolotl attacked the hunters while waiting for a response from Radmilo. There was no answer from the man, even though the monster had been talking to him for a long time.


    "Hey, can you hear me? I''ve done your request! Then what should I do with these humans?"


    Radmilo did not answer because he was waiting for Diane and Carl to arrive. When the people he was waiting for appeared in front of him, he immediatelyughed inwardly because the Axolotl crushed Diane''s mouth.


    ''Don''t kill them. Just hold them. Then may I know why you are unaffected by my power? I''m sure you already know that I went back in time.''


    The Axolotl''s gills changed color again, making the hunters who watched it confused. "I''m a special creature in the outside world and unaffected by the power of repeating time."


    Radmilo thought he had nothing to lose if he kept the Axolotl. This was the first time he had heard a monster speak of the ''outside world''. It meant all the strange things that suddenly appeared were from outside the earth, like one theory that many people believed.
