Chapter 190: Poor.

[Killed: 3/50]

A four-limbed figure with red fur was lying on the ground in the pool of blood.

Ichiro killed another Mutated Beast, this time, it was Savage Beast.

Ichiro has already reached 25km deep in the forest, and he was debating whether he should return.

For some reason, he could barely find any Mutated Beasts—it was like all of them had vanished.

Ichiro looked around the forest— it was very quiet.

The sky was getting darker.

He narrowed his eyes.

His 35 years of Martial Arts experience told him that something was wrong.

Very wrong!

[Host, what is wrong?]

Ichiro didn't answer.

Ichiro clenched his sword and became serious.

[Iron Dragon - Sword Breath!]

Ichiro moved his two swords in perfect synchrony. A burst of wind left the swords, which traveled straight towards the trees, blasting them to pieces!

The attack didn't stop after a few trees. Instead, it kept traveling and increasing in speed!

Until finally, the attack hit a mountain, but even the mountain started cracking apart.

''GRAAAAAAAAH!'' A sound of enraged roar was heard.

*BAM*

From one of the destroyed trees, an enraged monkey was seen.

'Is my senses getting rusty, or why didn't I notice someone this big following behind me…' Ichiro grimaced.

The monkey was grunting and moving towards Ichiro with his large body.

The trees in front of the monkey got destroyed, and the ground cracked.

Barely able to hold his weight, but that made Ichiro even more curious.

The monkey was able to move in the trees without making a sound, but now he is so noisy.

Ichiro knows that this monkey in front of him won't be let him use the Rank Meter— he has to fight carefully and slowly try to understand his opponent's strength.

Ichiro changed the grip of his sword, and now the blades pointed behind him.

He put the two swords next to his waist and lowered his stance.

''GRAAH!'' The monkey out of nowhere jumped and punched with his enormous fist.

Ichiro closed his eyes, and suddenly he appeared a dozen meters from his previous spot.

The monkey was confused— he landed on the ground and turned his massive head towards Ichiro, but then… He saw something weird.

Ichiro finally moved swung his swords towards the forest in front of him.

The monkey looked confused.

He thought that the human in front of him didn't know where he was because he had his eyes closed.

'Foolish human.' The monkey thought and sneakily walked towards Ichiro.

But this was Ichiro's plot.

Ichiro grinned.

[Iron Trap - Swordless Pit]

*CRACK*

The monkey looked below him, and suddenly the ground below him exploded!

''GRAAAH!'' The monkey fell down to the pit.

When Ichiro was moving with incredible speed, at that moment, he splitted the ground below him in half, but only a little bit, because he knew that once the heavy monkey steps on that spot, the ground will fall apart.

Ichiro walked towards the pit and looked at the monkey, who was angrily trying to climb the walls.

*Creak*

A figure fell from the tree and landed on the ground.

It was a monstrous-looking bird!

[Savage Beast Exterminated!]

[Killed: 4/50]

When the monkey thought that Ichiro didn't know where he was and attacked the forest randomly, he attacked the monstrous bird hiding in the trees.

The bird was cut in half, and light left his eyes.

''GRAAAHH!'' The monkey started punching the walls.

The ground around Ichiro shook, but he didn't change his calm expression.

''Hey, monke. I think I figured new Technique, want to be my guinea pig?'' Ichiro asked innocently.

The monkey glared at him with murderous intent.

Ichiro shrugged.

His right sword pointed behind him while his left sword pointed towards the monkey.

[Iron Monkey - Silencer]

Ichiro moved both of his swords simultaneously, and small wind pressure appeared around him. He did upwards slash with his right sword and downwards slash with his left sword.

The monkey looked confused, but then a small wound appeared on the side of his neck, while a massive slash appeared on the wall of the pit!

If that attack hit the monkey better, then his head would be separated from his neck!

The monkey finally felt fear.

''Oops, I missed.'' Ichiro innocently smiled and went back to his stance.

''Let me do it again.''

'Demon!' Was the monkey's final thoughts before his head was sent flying.

[Fury Beast Exterminated!]

[Killed: 5/50]

Ichiro turned around and left.

He didn't take the monkeys and the birds' corpses.

It would be annoying to take the monkey's corpse out of the pit.

And the bird was sliced in half.

It is worthless.

He took the red-furred figure and left the area.

He was walking back to the fortress.

Until he stopped, he looked around the forest and narrowed his eyes.

The forest was very silent, and it was getting darker.

But this time… Ichiro was certain that he wasn't surrounded by Beasts.

''Come out!'' Ichiro shouted.

He looked in one direction, and behind the tree, a handsome man with an innocent smile came while holding his hands in a surrendering gesture.

''I don't bring harm, brother.'' The handsome man said innocently, ''My name is Rick, and I am lost.''

Ichiro raised an eyebrow, ''Is that so?'' He lowered his swords, but he was still grabbing them tighter.

Rick lowered his hands and innocently smiled, ''Are you going back to the fortress? Can I follow you?''

Ichiro innocently smiled, ''Sure.''

Rick had a massive smile— he bowed and said, ''Thanks.''

But then Ichiro pointed with his sword towards the forest, ''Are your friends going to follow as well?''

Rick looked shocked, a small blade appeared in his hand, and he threw it towards Ichiro!

Ichiro snorted and deflected the blade with ease.

Five other individuals appeared from the forest and pointed their weapons at him.

There were 2 other men and three beautiful women.

They all had one thing in common, they all were quite attractive people, and their eyes showed their ruthlessness.

''Give me your spatial ring, and I will let you live,'' Rick said innocently.

''Spatial ring?'' Ichiro raised an eyebrow.

''I saw you putting the corpses of the Mutated Beasts inside the Spatial ring, give it to me, or die,'' Rick said innocently.

'I see… They thought my Inventory was Spatial ring… Well, then…' Ichiro's eyes became cold.

Ichiro took off his hood, and his incredibly handsome facial features became visible.

They all became shocked, one reason was that they had never seen someone so attractive, but also because they recognized him!

''I-Ichiro…'' Rick became pale and started retreating.

He is only Peak Martial Captain, while Ichiro was told to be around Martial Commander, and he is only 16 years old!

The three beautiful women became shocked, but also a hue of pink covered their cheeks.

Of course, they have heard of Ichiro and definitely seen his face.

Ichiro swung the swords around him and grinned, ''I am the last person you should think about robbing, unlike others… I am fucking poor.''
