Scarlet
Scarlet, Grandpas voice snaps me out of it, bringing my attention to him to find the man smiling. Thats all for today. Youre free to do whatever you want.
My eyes widen with glee before I give him a quick salute and rush straight to the balcony, jumping off of it without a hint of fear into a roll on the ground far below. Then I simply sprint straight towards the gate, passing through it in a flash.
Please let me get to the island before my bodyguards catch up to me!
Your Highness, I hear one of them state, making me glance to the side to find them easily running alongside me.
Shit. That didnt work as planned.
I mean, what did you expect? Tar says with a snort, sounding more than a little amused.
True. Doesnt mean I cant still dream, cant I?
Im going hunting, I tell him without pausing in my run or slowing down in the slightest. I swear Ill reach Class III by the end of the night!
A proud smile makes its way on the guards face. One that I completely ignore.
As you wish, Your Highness, he says, somehow bowing while running at my top speed. Something that kind of makes me want to punch him because of how fluidly he did it, making me look slow by comparison.
Then again, that might just be my pride talking.
Anyways, the man vanishes to his blood realm as I continue running straight towards the bridge.
Time to fight the other demons on that island!
After ten straight hours of nonstop hunting in the forest, something I wouldnt have been able to do on Earth, my System Messages suddenly play through by themselves the moment I finish off another bicorn.

{You have earned the rare inherent skill, Life Sense.}
My eyes widen in shock at the new inherent skill.
Now thats a skill I know about. Its a rather rare skill but a well-known one on Earth.
The skill lets you sense anything living within a radius around you depending on the skills level. It should also let you see the exact amount of mana someone has even if theyre hiding it simply by looking at them. At least, at the higher levels of the skill it gives that.
One of the skills you learned about at the university, right? Tar comments as I take a moment to sit down on a tree stump.
Yeah.
I close my eyes, focusing on my senses before slowly gaining a sense of awareness of five presences surrounding me, but when I open my eyes, I dont find anyone there. Meaning theyre probably the guards.
So I close my eyes again and focus once more until I find the presence of a demon approaching the clearing were in.
I open my eyes and turn to look at it, finding a blood revenant an undead creature made mostly of blood and bone whose mana I can see clear as day.
Itll take a bit to get used to though, since its kind of bizarre to see a blue aura around everything. And since its a passive skill, I cant exactly turn it off.
The only real downside to the skill.
Ill also have to figure out how to determine somethings level from their exact amount of mana, if thats possible.
Although the fact that I only got two inherent skills in my entire time as Class II is disappointing, not including the one I got for reaching Class II in the first place. Even if I know its due to the inherent skills I got being higher rarity.
Something that tends to happen for people with a lot of difficult achievements.
Anyways, I quickly distribute my free points before getting up and stretching a bit. Then I tell the guards, Lets head back to the palace. Ive reached level 250 and just need the catalysts now.
Of course, Your Highness, the guards all state, each of them appearing for a moment before vanishing again from my physical sight, but not from my life sense anymore.
At least I can tell where they are now. Thats a plus.
Didnt realize life sense could see into a blood realm though. Not that I actually knew what a blood realm was before yesterday, but still.
Now I just have to figure out where I can get the catalysts. Although Grandpa might just offer them to me for free.
I kind of doubt he will though. Its just not the blood lycan way of doing things.
So with that thought in mind, I make the crest reappear on my armor and begin heading back towards the castle again, only to pause after just three steps when a cloud of miasma suddenly appears in front of me, following which the guards all immediately surround me with their arms partially shifted.
Then The Reaper appears out of the miasma, his eyes locked on mine.
Whats he doing here?
