Jasvinder and Upma worked as a couple. Always.

Their team work was brilliant to the level that their actions mirrored each other at some places while covering each other at other places.

In fact, their team work was so astounding that they might even be able to defeat me despite me have a lot more stat points than them.

Because of their imperceptible team work, they were able to lure in two or even three abnormals at once and dealt with them in a swift and precise manner.

The other couple (the stealth one) was not that bad either. It seemed the stealth couple had taken Jasvinder and Upma as their role models and were copying their techniques to a terrifying degree.

The last member of their group was not a great fighter but he was able to pull his own weight for the team.

All in all, while me and my team had killed 300 abnormals in our area, they had dealt with more than 450 in their area.

But the team with the most number of kills was that of Rahul.

The number of corpses in their area was easily more than twice the number of corpses in our area.

Unlike us, they were not killing the abnormals individually.

They had set some kind of trap in a large alley in the last end of the street and were killing 5-8 abnormals in one batch at a time.

'It seems like that team has been personally trained by Rahul for some time.' I observed as they performed some kind of maneuver and jumped down from the walls before cleanly decapitating all the abnormals who had entered the alley.

After that, they took out all the crystals simultaneously and then threw the corpses in a pile narby that was made up of corpses.

By the time they cleared the batch, one of them was already luring in the next group with far more precision than I ever did.

I sighed and realized that if this goes on, then I would fall behind.

I was never a very good team player.

And I was never a very good leader either.

Sure I was used to lording over my fellow peers by bullying them but that's all it was. Bullying. And that sort of thing does not make you agood leader.

Not to say that I cannot become a good leader if I try.

I was of the belief that you can achieve mostly just about everything if you try hard enough.

But I was a practical person and believed in playing by our strength rather than our weaknesses.

I was not good at teamwork. And I was definitely not good at leading.

Sure, if I put hard work into it, then I might be able to become a good teammate and a good leader. But these were not the things I excelled at.

And using valuable time to become mediocre at something that I was bad at seemed like a waste of time to me.

Instead, I would rather use my time to become the best at something that I was good at.

And I was good at solo missions.

I was good at hunting as an individual.

Sure, hunting as a team member gave a person more choices to pursue but I always felt restricted in a team.

I was rather go alone and deal with the challenges on my own.

I was good at it.

And now, I was going to become better at it.

I wanted to become the best at it.

I was competitive person.
