The explosion caused by Teras surprised not only the slime but also himself, his hand was burned from the impact of the explosion but thanks to the slime's compact body Teras's arm managed to avoid major injuries, the explosion was incredibly loud, and could have been heard from far "Guys I think Teras is in trouble we have to change our plan" Cara said when she heard the explosion "But he told us to not move no matter what" Har told her "He can be dying this moment, and you still say that?" Cara asked him, she was furious "Har she is right, we have to go I don't care what he told us, if he dies it doesn't matter does it?" Lia told him, Har didn't waste any more time, the 3 of them packed their things and started running towards the direction of the explosion Meanwhile, the others were swiftly trying to discover what happened Teras didn't stop fighting with the slime, even after a huge explosion at this close range the king slime was barely affected, after the explosion Teras

The travel to this faraway land was long but time passed quicker than normally for Orion, Jem stopped his carriage near a small river so his horses could get some rest, the horses were carrying everyone for about 10 hours so naturally, they had to rest, Jem also laid down so he can rest too, Teras was awakened for hours, after seeing this strange dream he couldn't sleep, the others were still sleeping on top of each other'They sleep like stray kittens'Teras thought as he watched them, after some time he got out of the carriage and went to clean his face with the river's water, the water was freezing, it was early in the morning though so it was expected, Teras then started to practice his mana overload, it was a very useful tool so if he learned how to use it then it would prove to be essential in the future'In the past, I tried to cause an explosion by charging my whole palm with mana but the results are different if I use a single spot'Teras thought, he then channeled mana to hi

The monster was slowly walking out of its cage observing the world outside, Teras felt a very strange aura of mana coming out of this monster, it was something he had never seen before, it made him feel intimidated, Marco's laugh also made him even more anxious "Get him Beast!" Marco yelled, after he said that a collar that the monster was wearing started to glow, shortly after it shocked the monster, and after the shook the monster went berserk at Teras, Teras tried to dodge but the monster was way too quick, Teras was struck by the monster's powerful tail, the attack sent Teras flying even though he blocked it with his hands, before Teras could recover from the hit the monster attempted to hit him again but this time Teras barely managed to pull out his mana charged sword to defend himself, he swung the sword at the monster but the monster was too sharp, so sharp that it could predict Teras's attack, the attack simply slashed the air creating a wave of air pressure 'Shit if that h

3 Days passed after Teras and his friends decided to help the villagers, all of them trained hard for another 3 days to increase their stamina, they ran, they swam, and they lifted up weights, they did everything they could do to surpass the strength of the bandits, but after some day of training they felt like they were spending their time wrongly, nobody can get stronger with only a limited time like theirs, what they needed to do now was not strengthen their bodies but sharpen their battle senses so in the 4th day Teras decided to start with a basic sword training, it was early in the morning when Teras gathered everyone in the open field the village had "Good morning everyone! You all did well in your strength training so I think is time to move on to sword training, most of you probably know how to fight with a sword so this session of training won't require someone to teach you how to fight, this session will mostly be a tournament like a sword fighting contest between us, we wi

The days of mana training quickly ended with everyone being able to use mana on a below-average level excluding the people that already knew how to control it, these people became even stronger after pushing their selves to the absolute limit, they had to or else all this training will go to wasteIt was one day before the bandits were said to arrive, and all of the villagers were doing nothing but relaxing their bodies, after weeks of intense training their body was weakened and exhausted so the best thing they could do is rest, all of the women and children were packing their things and were ready to go and hide in the forest, being caught in the crossfire of the fight would probably cause them great damage, but before they left the men said one last goodbye to them, many were also crying, some of them seemed to accept the fact that they may die, it was a sad thing to see but that was their reality, and they couldn't do anything to change it besides fight"I'm going to miss you, Rex
