Chapter 988: CHAPTER 957 A BOAR?
Shadowslash words silenced them, they knew that he was right, the demons have started to become active all of a sudden and because of humanity’s greed and arrogance, the other races didn’t help them like before.
According to the history of this world, when the great demon god descended and help the demon race prosper, all the races except for the dragons and the Aqua Race have band together to fight against them.
Currently, the orc, elf, dwarf and beastman race were totally against the humans, for orcs, they were warring with the humans for a long time now, they are seen as a member of the monster race.
Dwarves were seen as producers of treasures, they are treated like possession by the kingdoms they are staying, they cannot escape because they are forced to make weapons for the kingdom.
Beastman on the other hand are seen as monsters, they are only useful for menial labor and pleasure slaves because of this, they developed a deep rooted hatred for mankind.
Elves were also disgusted by humans because they are seen by mage as the best specimen to conduct experiment on and were seen as first class slaves.
Shadowslash knew that the demons clearly learned their lesson and are actually thinking of recruiting the other race in order to defeat the humans with much more ease.
.....
Because of his current identity, he could only side with the humans to preserve himself and this body’s family members.
Looking at the silence father and daughter, he went out of the room, leaving behind these words “I suggest that start thinking about the nearby future, the demons knows that this current era is the perfect time for them to rise up to supremacy.”
Gripping her fist, Cassandra felt so weak, she knew that this was true, demons aren’t that bold to make a move to a city, especially a city being protected by a renowned knight of Crimson Gold Rank.
Not only Xephier Thunder is one of the most unique fighter of the kingdom, he also has the potential to reach Platinum Rank.
Leaving the guild, Shadowslash took multiple missions, because he cannot ask the request to rank up their group, for now, he could only take missions with the lowest class.
The two children celebrated, Little Fatty spoke “We are happy that you are coming with us, the battle that occurred last month have caused the monsters to become active, during these days, a lot of monsters that should be deeper in the forest have been found nearby.”
Shadowslash stops “What kind of monsters were found and what are their ranks?”
Little Fatty patted his chest “During the time when you were unconscious, I have been gathering information regarding the state of the forest.”
“According the rumors from the mercenaries and also news from the guild, there are now frequent sightings of Silver Rank monsters in the forest.”
Shadowslash mused “What about Gold Rank, are there any proven information that they arrived in the outer part of the forest.”
Little Fatty shook his head “None so far but if it’s just rumors, I have heard lots of them.”
Shadowslash nodded at him, meanwhile Little Snow felt disappointed at herself, she never expected that she would be so useless, she swore that she’ll be useful from henceforth.
“There is a sighting a gold rank Two Tailed Tiger, a man eating baboon and a Tree Python.”
Shadowslash have heard about these creatures but he hadn’t studied much of this world, he decided to read some information regarding this world.
“Let us finish ten mission per week, then we’ll take the rest of the day off, you can do anything you want during your spare time.”
“By the way, I suggest that you don’t rank up to Bronze Rank immediately, I felt that it would be detrimental for our future.”
The two children nodded, for them, his words are all facts, meanwhile, they were now being monitored by numerous individuals, the two might have not sensed it but Shadowslash clearly did.
He would’ve already made a move but he doesn’t sense any hostility so he just ignores them just like he did during the time when the two elven sisters were monitoring him.
This time, they are hunting a group of slimes, horned rabbits and bloody eyed squirrels, all of them are class F but the first one is a lot more troublesome to deal with compared to the two.
Slimes could only be defeated by magic, most mercenaries used physical strength, it is a monster that they don’t want to mess with.
“Fatty, you will deal with the horned rabbits together with Wiggles.”
“Little Snow you’ll be dealing with the slimes, Wiggles will also accompany you.”
The two children nodded, Little Fatty asks “What about the bloody eyed squirrels?”
“I’ll deal with them, considering that you two don’t have the speed and mobility to catch them, it would be troublesome got you.”
The two children nodded, the first monsters they encountered were actually none of their target’s, it was a wild boar that is much bigger than them.
It was Bronze Rank monster known as Copper Hide Boar, it’s skin is extremely tough, unfortunately, it’s meat is not that desirable because of this, they aren’t sought for.
Shadowslash on the other hand started trembling, he felt something unique on this monster, he then looks at Little Fatty.
Little Fatty was confused as to why his big bro was shivering, he then heard him say “Fatty, it seems that we have found the best mount for you.”
Little Snow pointed at the boar, Shadowslash nodded, while others would mistaken this monster for a Copper Hide Boar, his divine eye could see through the facade.
Even though he had to use the drop of pure internal Qi to operate this ability, he felt lucky to have done so, his instinct earlier have caused him to use a drop of his internal Qi.
Species: Gluttonous Iron Tusked Earth Dragon
Race: Dragon (Subspecies)
Level: Bronze Rank Level 4
Type: Steel/Earth
Skill: [Barbaric Charge], [Earth Shake]
Without hesitation, he told the two to retreat and commanded Wiggles to protect them, he charges towards it with his killing intent bursting out.
The Gluttonous Iron Tusked Earth Dragon was startled, it felt that it was facing a prehistoric beast, it’s instinct is telling it to retreat.
Shadowslash didn’t let it escape, he leaps over it and landed on it’s back, he use the Mana in the surrounding to create a type of skill that sticks his feet on it’s back.
He might be the only one on this world that could create a skill with just a though, meanwhile, the disguised boar started crying loudly, it started jumping and running at quick speed but the person on its back hadn’t fallen down.
It also felt a sensation of weakness on its body, it started feeling dizzy, it’s strength is being sapped out of its body.
‘I might not use the true form of Heaven Swallowing Technique but I could still use some of it’s function, too bad clever dragon, you have met me.’ Even he had desire to obtain this monster.
With their race cunningness to actually copies the image of a monster that isn’t desired by others, they increase their chances of survival and also could leave the younger generation to train themselves.
With this, they would obtain stronger experts of their species, he admires their method, most dragons are arrogant but it’s because they are born at least on Gold Rank.
But this is much worse on the subspecies, because their bloodline is not pure enough, they are born much lesser, the lizardman are actually a type of dragon subspecies but because of how diluted their bloodlines have become, they are born without a rank just like humans.
Back to the present, the Gluttonous Iron Tusked Earth Dragon have become exhausted, Shadowslash would hit it with a punch that contains spirit Qi.
His punch could ignore the outer defense of his target, making it screams in pain, not only that, even with just Tree Swallowing Technique, he had rapidly absorbed the energy of the boar.
After an hour of wild ride, the boar finally falls down with a thud, Shadowslash then tried to lift and failed, his muscles have already been strained last month, even after a whole month of rest, it would take more time to recover.
He could only command Wiggles to bring the two children to him, the distance that he had traveled is actually quite far, if he wasn’t leading the boar and had it smashed it’s head to a couple of trees, they would certainly reach the boundary of the inner part of the forest.
‘Let us rest for now.’ He puts his hand on the tree next to him and it quickly withers, just as he was about to continue, he stops, he sensed danger, he narrows his eyes and quickly rolls to the side at the same, punching the boar to force to fly backwards.
Bang! A loud thund could be heard, then a giant monster have appeared, it let’s out a hiss as it looks at the boar then Shadowslash with greed.
“So your the so called Gold Rank Tree Python.”
