At the far end of the village was a huge building far bigger than what Drake has seen so far. Rollo called it the Winter Hall. The naming comes from how it’s used as a shelter from the harsh blizzards that assault the region during winter.

Since the population is small everyone need each other to survive so they have to look out for one another to make sure no one freezes in their homes.

Drake was surprised when he heard that Rollo’s grandfather is actually the village chief. Though he don’t know what someone in his position does he understand that the old man is the highest authority there and is responsible for keeping this place going.

He’s huge… Drake thought, immediately recognizing the man in question.

“Grandpa, good morning.” Rollo said when they arrived.

“Rollo! Good timing!”

At first Drake was expecting an old man with a white beard who’s barely able to stand, however the one standing before him wasn’t someone you’d expect to have married grand children.

He was a literal

    “Hey, Rollo, did you do anything to strengthen your Beast Soul?”The system was based on video games so Drake doubted the residents of this world would know anything about it. He suspected that the way they interpret their powers is totally different from how he does, which meant they might have a different method to gain strength.“Nothing in particular.” The red head replied. “I was forbidden from leaving the village until now so I couldn’t try anything.”“I see…”Thinking about it for a moment, Drake concluded that Rollo had gained the required amount of Essence from the two quests they had completed, same as him. That led him to think that the rewards the system offered might not be something it creates on

    “Phew~”Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Rollo let go of the axe he had been swinging for a few minutes now.“Good work.” Drake said as he passed him the water skin.The read haired boy chugged a mouthful before returning it then shifted his gaze to the pile of fire wood he had chopped so far.They were about to be done preparing the second WalkinRoot they had hunted, taking turns cutting the trunk into small enough pieces to fit inside the hearths.“Alright. I’ll finish the rest.” Drake said as he grabbed his axe.Rollo moved aside and let him get to it. Placing one of the large pieces of wood on the stump, he lifted his axe

    “TODAY WE CELEBRATE ROLLO AND THE MAN WHO SAVED HIS LIFE!!!”In the village hall Drake sat on wooden chair listening as Rollo’s grandfather gave a short speech.“The two fought the night church and safely returned! Not only that but they also managed to obtain two of the most powerful Souls to ever exist!” His voice thundered throughout the hall as a big grin spread across his face. “A grand feat only a few could hope to accomplish! As a reward for their bravery I, Ragnar son of Thors and the current chief of Thors village, bestow Rollo son of Olaf and Drake Brand with the Hunter title!”[SYSTEN NOTIFICATION][Title: 《Hunter》 has been implemented.][《Hunter》: a title granted to

    “I TOLD YOU IT’S REAL!!!” Rollo shouted at the villagers.“Calm down Rollo.” Said Astrid trying to reprimand him.“Well, we knew from the get go.” Added Gunnar. “The shield you brought was enough proof.”“Then why didn’t you believe me!?”“Cause a kid going to the mountain, fighting fanatics and escaping a legendary beast isn’t exactly a believable story.” Said Ragnar.“Then why did you believe Drake!?” Rollo turned to the guy in question and pointed his finger.“C’mon, it’s not like we didn’t believe you.

His brother in law, Gunnar, would be teaching us today a few things about being a Hunter.It’s just the first step I’m taking so I need to learn what I can quickly so I can get to hunting Magical Beasts as soon as possible.Rollo was in a really bad mood this morning. The beer he drank yesterday left him with a nasty hangover that wouldn’t be going anywhere anytime soon. He swore to never drink alcohol again, grumbling as we ate breakfast.Once we were done we went to Bjorn the blacksmith to get some equipment. He loaned us some chainmail and two swords expecting us to pay fo

I needed to use this opportunity to learn what I can. For example, I learned that swinging swords isn’t as simple as it looks.“C’mon Drake! Just end it already!” Rollo shouted from the sides looking quite bored.I took a moment to glare in his direction but almost regretted it as the wolf leaped at my neck. Thankfully I was able to dodge, still it was a close call.Damn it!I cursed internally, hold

Rollo struggled with the ice beams quite a bit getting hit in his left thigh promoting Gunnar to go in and help him. Soon enough we were done with the three beast and all that was left was getting the Souls and butchering them.“Those were much stronger than the usual.” Said Rollo sounding really bitter.“Obviously.” Said Gunnar. “Though they’re much weaker compared to the average C tier beast.”“What about their Souls?” I asked.“If you’re wondering about their usefulness in combat then just

    A lot of things happened after the battle against the Dragonspears. When they reunited with the others, Drake learned that Peter had saved Edda and her hound as well. Turns out the two were actually in a secret relationship and she was the one who came up with the whole plan of destroying his contract and escaping. Apparently she was of a rare race of Beastkin that possessed healing abilities. Since her bloodline was too valuable the Dragonspears wanted to make her a part of their family instead of enslaving her then harvesting her Soul. Healers were a rare commodity so even if they're Beastkin they're always treated well. That said, she couldn't get over the fact that she was sold like an object and was looking for the perfect opportunity to betray them. The weirdest part of all was that she had fallen in love with Peter despite him being nothing but a cloud of smoke. Drake was confused about how they planned on making it work, however the girl said that a magic that allows Beastki

    "Why…?" Rollo asked his voice hoarse. He was on the ground, his lower half was lost, both of his arms as well. His wounds were frozen preventing him from regenerating. The frost was spreading killing his cells one by one. "I dont really know what you were expecting." Drake said, scratching the back of his head. He hated Rollo. Killing him was only natural. Still, seeing a kid laying on the ground having suffered such grave injuries Drake almost felt bad for him. Almost. He wasn't about to feel sympathy toward someone who planned to enslave him. "I… thought… we could be… friends…" the boy struggled to speak. His lips had turned blue and the breaths he struggled to release with each word turned into white fog. "I wanted you… by my side… we could've… we could've ruled… the upper realm…" "Friends? That's a really bad joke." Drake snorted, mocking the idea. "I only saw you as the bastard who wants to turn me into a weapon. I guess you have succeeded in that regard. Bet you didn't exp

    Something about Rollo began to change. The aura covering his body began to fluctuate. He dropped his spear and his blue eyes turned bloody red. Drake heightened his guard. He felt that something odd was happening.The red haired boy had used the effects of the redacted title to force his main Soul to evolve. It was a Red Dragon. Though the name was simple, it was the Soul of one of the seven primal beasts that once ruled over the upper realm, the ones that put an end to the first Eternal Night. The final stage of its evolution is the Light Dragon. It was as rare as the Eternal Night, never found in the wild and can only be reached by cultivating the beast Soul with the help of the system. All of the other Souls Rollo had assimilated were consumed to gather enough Essence for the evolution. The forced process did the same to him as it did to Drake and caused him to lose control as he entered the second stage of assimilation.Scales began to grow on his arms and legs. A thick white t

    The moment Drake chose the YES option everything suddenly went black. He couldn't see or feel, it was as if he was pulled out of his body, left as an accumulation of thoughts without a physician form. Time passed. He didn't know how long but at some pont he opened his eyes and looked around him. The black castle was a mess. Corpses everywhere missing most of their remains. Weapons of different types and sizes, broken and destroyed. Armor and shield thrown around bent into unknown shapes. What caught his attention the most were the crystals scattered around and the strange artifacts here and there. They didn't look like anything he recognized. Little did he know what they were magic weapons that had been used on him. The black castle was destroyed. Most of its buildings had crumbled. The walls surrounding it rendered to dust. Upon further inspection Drake noticed white flames here and there eating at anything that had yer to burn. Thay was enough of a clue for him to tell what had

    Drake Went around hunting the apprentices looking for him. He approached them peacefully then took the chance to erase them using his void hand. Sadly it didn't go that well till the end. As he was erasing the forth one the fifth saw it and took off. Drake was unable to catch up with him and he ended up warning the servants who went around warning the other apprentices or guards. It was a shame that he couldn't go about it in a more quiet manner, but nothing could be done about it. Tossing the oil lamp he was carrying, drake coated both of his arms in the black flames. He faced the oncoming enemies and prepared to attack."What are we supposed to do!?" One off the guards asked. "He's an important guest of the lord, right?""They said he had killed some apprentices. Until we do a more thorough investigation we have to restrain him for now!"They didn't have to wait though as they got the proof they needed soon enough. The first guard to approach Drake had half of his body erased. Dra

    Drake gave Layla and Lily a few minutes to have their reunion, however they needed to move quicker so he told them to save it for a later time. They needed to get moving before the main members of the Dragonspear family are informed of his disappearance.

    "Alright." The shadow said. "Everything is in place. Let's get going."Drake took a deep breath then nodded. The time to execute the plan has come and so the two began to move. The shadow enveloped Drake teleporting him to the first location."... Drake?" Layla said, seeing her the boy fall out of the sky.Roland was there as well, taking a fighting stance the moment he saw the strange shadow."We got no time. Come with me." Drake said. Without asking any questions the two came closer and were enveloped by the shadow as well.The next time they opened their eyes they were in an unfamiliar location. Roland was on his knees in no time, struggling to breath. Layla was able to tell they were in the upper realm, and not just anywhere but in a Nexus point where magical Essence was concentrated the most."We are going to revive Lily." Drake said, opening his inventory and taking the little girl's soul. "Wait. What's going on? Isn't this… too sudden?" Layla asked."I'll go keep an eye on th

    "So? How are we going to do this?" Drake asked. "You're asking for my help so you should already know how to remove the curse, right?" "Huh? Do you believe me now?" The shadow spoke, his voice containing a hint of joy."Nope. I didn't even decided whether to help you or not." Drake said, waving a dismissive hand. "First of all, let's hear what you have. I'll decide after I hear your plan."... okay, that work just fine, I guess." The shadow said with a sigh. "When I was still a kid someone sold me to the Dragonspears. The slavery contract is a magical item that binds me to the one who signed on it, the family head.""You arent going to ask me to kill him, right?""Of course not!" The shadow exclaimed. "Well, it is one of the possible solutions, however killing that monster is impossible. Our only choice is to find the contract and destroy it.""So? Why dont you do it already?" Drake asked."Because I can't." The shadow replied. "I can't defy my owner, remember? That means I can't bre

    "GOD FUCKING DAMN IT DRAKE! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!!!" The shadow was really pissed off. He had barely managed to teleport them outside the cave before it collapsed. Now they were in the field with the new Frost King's corpse Rollo had killed a while ago."You could've gotten us both killed!" The shadow went on, berating Drake for his unreasonable actions. Drake didn't give him much thought, gripping his sword and preparing to continue his attacks."What the fuck do you think you're doing!!?""I don't? Killing the bastard who's trying to use my dead brother to make me do something?" Drake said, cauting his blade with the black flames."I am your brother!" The shadow said. "Well, I did die and got reborn so I guess you have a point. But it's really me! You gotta believe me!""Yeah right." Drake went on to attack, swinging his sword again and again. "You're still as crazy as ever." The shadow said, swooshing here and there avoiding the flurry of attacks. "Did you like this world? Vi
