Since the raid began, they’ve only encountered F and E-rank beasts. This would’ve given them some sort of relief, but that would’ve been before Sonra gave her speech.

Since then, they’ve been hoping to meet a D-rank, but now that one has delivered itself right in front of them, they were beginning to wonder if they stood a chance.

The beast in front of them could best be related to an about four-meter tall fox, completely covered with black furs, while possessing three long furry tails.

It had deep yellow slitted eyes which held animosity for the humans in front of it.

From its presence, anyone skilled enough could tell that this wasn’t just a regular D-rank beast. It seemed stronger.

Excitement grew within Art causing a big smile to creep on his face as he unsheathed his sword and the life steal dagger.

Finally, a powerful opponent was before him.

After being starved from letting loose for over a month, he could barely control himself. The fight would judge whether he would be using

    Just after the notification of his HP loss, Art wiped the trickle of blood from his lips while standing up.He watched Sonra and Scry attack the beast and was honestly surprised when it used a direct physical magic attack.After observing from his distance, he realized that truly some sort of paralyzing magic was being used on his other party members, as they’d been in the same position despite the frightened and wary look in their eyes.He also noticed something weird about Caitlyn in particular. Her eyes, hair, and the eyes of her teddy bear were all glowing bright blue.He ignored it at first and was about to go for the beast once more when a notification from his system popped up.[Potential Shingu Identified]He remembered coming across this term several times from the many books he had read.A Shingu is a summoning created when a beast is tamed and transformed into a different kind of creature.Not every tamed beast could go through this process, so finding one of these is rare.

    Art stared at the person who just arrived, standing not too far away from Caitlyn who lay unconscious.This was the first time he had seen this person, but he could immediately tell that he was strong and dangerous.It seemed that he had tried to kill the D-rank beast just before it vanished, and if he hadn’t sent that attack, he would have succeeded.The boy who was older than Art by a few years had a constant natural flow of killing intent, and it was in fact scaryIn his current state, it would be best to avoid any kind of confrontation, but that would become inevitable if he tried to hurt the defenseless Caitlyn.Art clasped the hilt his weapons tighter, just in case.“Oh!...That expression…That fighting spirit…That will to protect…WONDERFUL! You are the one I’ve been searching for. Truly…,” his eyes narrowed with a wider grin as his killing intent rose. “I have to unalive you.”“This is bad,” Sonra muttered, wondering how she could handle this situation.“What do you mean? Who is

    “Why are you losing?”Art didn’t know how he was supposed to answer such a question.It was clear that he was currently the weaker one, so it was only natural to be on the losing side.Although he had a plan that might’ve turned things in his favour just before the dagger hit, it only had a 20 percent chance of working, so he was thankful for the interference.“Rhan? What are you doing here? I had everything under control,” Art casually said while standing up on both feet. It hurt like hell but he had to put up this front.He had fought against the person who just saved him during the deliver the crystal assessment. Their battle wasn’t concluded back then.“It didn’t seem that way to me. But don’t worry I won’t let anyone get you until I do,” he smirked.“Party pooper or not, I’m glad that you could join the party. Now, prepare to die as well,” Vlarth’s expression became even more sinister as the pressure of his killing intent spread around.‘Just how many people has he killed?’ Rhan

    “Asura!!!” Uramia screamed approaching the group she almost wiped out.‘Was she the one who attacked us? That would make sense. But why?’ the party leader thought easily recognizing the person moving towards them.Uramia had adoration in her eyes while approaching Asura, popularly known as the lilac ice queen.She was the only female ranked above her, that Uramia could stare at with such expression in her eyes.“What was that about,” Asura asked with a neutral expression. If she had miscalculated the amount of mana needed to be put into the spell she cast, her party members would’ve been in a dire situation.“A-Are they people over there?” their party leader asked, not very confident.Uramia didn’t like being casually spoken to by people she considered weak, but since they were party members of Asura, they ultimately had her respect.“Yes,” she nodded. “They are at the other end of the attack. Two elite members are there, as well as a former elite.” ‘That’s quite the gathering,' thei

    Art was running through the forest with two weapons at hand. One was the life-steal dagger, while the other was a sword.The light from the half moon wasn’t enough to significantly illuminate the forest, so anyone hunting now is taking a very big risk.The most cunning and dangerous beasts operate by this time, using the darkness to their advantage.So it’s just a game of who would be the hunter and prey.The beasts around this time had special organs, or maybe magic that helped them perform better at night, but unfortunately for them, Art wasn’t just running around blindly.He had a few pieces of equipment with him that ensured that the barrier brought by the night wouldn’t be an obstacle.The first was the mask that he had gotten from the store back then which made seeing people’s natural aura along with night vision possible.After the last time he used it which almost led to his blindness, he hasn’t worn it again until now.From a third person's perspective, Art’s face was black,

    'They blend in so well. But it’s futile against me,' Art thought, staring in front of him at the many beasts attached to different trees. Their physiology wasn’t something he could compare with any creature he knew from his former world. They were pitch black in color, and the thing that would’ve given them away being eyes that would most likely glow at night were absent. It seemed that they relied completely on her senses to hunt down their prey. It would be impossible for nearly anyone at the students' level to spot them in the darkness by normal sight alone. Their abdominal region was slender, but they had very broad chests and two arm-like structures that were serrated and moved like whips. Their heads were about the same size as a human's without eyes and nose, and they lacked legs, having a tail just like a certain half-human, half-snake myth. From the way they moved, it was clear that they had very flexible bones or none at all. Their movement failed to pr

    “Aura release.”With a slash from his life-steal dagger, a golden arc of aura was released, which traveled at incredible speed toward its target.An explosion was created as contact was made, destroying the vegetation around that area, and with that, Art had successfully single-handedly killed 17 E-rank beasts, which was about half of the total that his party had killed. [E-rank black Sigel killed: +20 EXP][E-rank black Sigel killed: +20 EXP][E-rank black Sigel killed: +15 EXP][E-rank black Sigel killed: +15 EXP][E-rank black Sigel killed: +15 EXP]…..[Host has leveled up][Host has leveled up][Host has leveled up]….He managed to level up three times during this fight.This was not very common anymore since leveling-up requirements had increased. It was truly a blessing to meet a group of E-rank beasts. He wondered if other parties had shared such a blessing. But then a realization hit him. ‘A group of E-ranks.’Beasts don’t usually group up together apart from two reasons.T

    Art narrowly dodged the horns of a beast that charged at him.He had been hunting continuously without rest for the past four hours, so the time now was around midnight. During this period, he had successfully killed 5 D-rank, 72 E-rank, and hundreds of F-rank beasts, as well as harvested their cores. Adding D-rank cores to his collection was truly satisfying. He was currently fighting against a D-rank beast, which was a six-foot-tall deer with multiple sharp horns.He could be considered the bad guy here since the deer was sleeping peacefully when he picked up a fight, and honestly, he was regretting it as the exhaustion from all the continuous fighting was taking its toll.His movements were getting sloppier, and he had narrowly escaped getting stabbed several times. Since he had no sort of protective gear on, he couldn’t risk that happening. At a point, he tried making a run for it, but the furious beast relentlessly chased him, so there were no two ways about this. One of them

  • Fat Art

    Art spent the next ten days staying with them.Just like Yuh's father had said, the registration for the Grand Magus test began three days after Art's arrival. He had already registered a few days ago.Initially, he had planned to leave the day after he arrived, but Yuh’s parents insisted he stay at least until the test began. After all, he was still young and pretty much homeless. Yuh wasn’t sure if her parents would have let him stay had they known what he was capable of.Still, they offered him a roof over his head and plenty of food.With no other alternatives, he accepted. They were good people, and he wasn’t about to reject their kindness. But he wasn’t a freeloader either. The next day, he found a merchant willing to buy some of his items.The merchant couldn’t determine the exact value of the feathers Art had collected, so he offered a low price. Art was convinced they were worth much more, so he held onto them. Instead, he sold some low-grade mana cores—as absorbing them at

  • A way in

    Art walked through the streets behind the girl, his arms folded across his chest. He tried to stay composed despite his inner turmoil. --- Moments ago "What did you say?" "I want to thank you properly, and you seem hungry. I can't be sure of anything except that we make lovely dishes at my home," the girl said. Art took a few seconds to reply. He might have been hungry, but he still had his pride. "Ehk-hem! I actually have somewhere to eat. But if you insist, I'll take you up on your offer," he said with a straight face. His reply seemed to please her as she smiled. "My name is Yuh. Please follow me." --- And that was how he ended up like this. He hadn’t paid much attention to her earlier, but now he gauged her physical appearance. She looked slightly older than him, with several injuries and bruises—probably from when she confronted those men. They walked for several minutes, passing many people and buildings along the way. This was the first time he was freely walki

  • An Angry Man is still a Hungry Man

    Art never thought of himself as some kind of hero who saved every person he didn't know in distress without expecting anything in return. In fact, he considered that kind of mindset foolish—a pointless waste of time, energy, and effort. A simple thank you wasn't enough to justify the trouble. People might call him self-centered for thinking this way, but he didn’t care. That was just how he saw the world. But there were some things even he couldn't ignore. Some acts so vile they crossed a line, and this was one of them. For someone with a 25-year-old mentality—perhaps even older, considering the memories of the life he had replaced—certain things struck a nerve. Especially when he had two younger sisters, though from different worlds. Hearing what these men had done… It triggered something in him. His golden eyes glowed as mana gathered around him, the air shifting with his rising energy. Both men instinctively took a few steps back. 'Wait… he's a mage too? But he looked so

    "I knew it!" The lady spat in irritation. "Get this beggar out of here!" "Wait! I'm not broke!"Two large, menacing men appeared beside him.In the next instant, he was sent flying out the door and crashing to the ground.He stood up shortly after, teary-eyed. "I'm actually broke. I'm not used to this. Maybe I should've stuck with those people."Grooowwwllllllllllll...His stomach reminded him once again of its situation.Standing here, inhaling all these delicious aromas without even a bite to eat, was pure torment.He glanced around, wondering what to do next when an idea hit him.'I could trade some things I have for cash. I'm sure they'll be worth a lot.'Thankfully, his spatial bracelet was still on his wrist.All he had to do now was find a buyer or a merchant store.It would take some time and effort, especially with his empty stomach, but he promised himself he’d make sure to compensate himself bountifully.Having the support of the Silver, as well as the Royal family, ensure

  • Alone in the city

    Fiona paced so restlessly in the main hall, arms crossed quite tightly over her chest. As soon as the weighty doors swung, her dad walked in, and she turned quickly toward him."Father! You're back!" Lord Varian, a graying, tall man who had a well-maintained beard, took off his coat, handing it to an attendant. He slightly arched an eyebrow at his daughter's tense posture. "I exist. Though, from the look on your face, something tells me you're not here to welcome me peacefully."Fiona huffed. "You won’t possibly believe the thing that happened."Lord Varian chuckled softly, moving onward toward a plush chair near the fireplace. "I think that I shall, actually." He sat down, gesturing for her to continue.Fiona wasted no time. "That very boy we saved—he tried to steal right from us! I caught him right in my own room!"Lord Varian's brow furrowed quite slightly. However, he remained completely silent, allowing her to vent."And after I then confronted him, he tried to begin making excu

  • Accused

    "What are you doing here?" Art stared blankly at the girl standing just inside the room's entrance. She looked about his age, with shoulder-length auburn hair and a round, fair face that grew redder with fury with each passing second.He quickly put two and two together—she was most likely the owner of the room.He immediately tried to clear the misunderstanding."It’s not what you think," he said, instinctively raising his hands."I hoped you would be a good and sincere person, but you're just like the rest. How could you try to steal from us? You even came into my room!" she exclaimed, her voice laced with irritation and disappointment."Wait! What? Steal? No, you have this all wrong!" Art defended himself."Guards! Frier!!" she screamed loudly."I just woke up! I was checking if there was anyone around. I was really just trying to thank you guys!" Art further tried to explain.Seconds after her loud call, four people arrived.Three were men, while the fourth was a woman.The woman

  • Consciousness

    Viron groaned as he regained consciousness.'What happened?' he muttered, sitting up.His last memories of talking with Zenchi resurfaced.'Wait! I actually tried to attack him?' His eyes widened in disbelief. 'What got into me? I haven’t been that angry before. Was it the stress from all the training?'He looked down at his body and noticed some bandages.'He completely rendered me useless with one casual attack? No, he only released his aura with a little mix of lightning. That was barely an attack. What a monster. How does someone even defeat someone like that?'Viron could feel most of his strength returning, so he had no trouble moving. He walked over to the window and gazed outside.The sun was slowly being replaced by the moon, casting long shadows over the academy grounds. Despite the growing darkness, people were still outside—talking, laughing, loitering.Here, as in most academies, it wasn’t compulsory to learn magic solely for battle. Especially in this era, which had mos

    "Ughhh! That boy just keeps making things difficult for me. Maybe I shouldn’t have taken him as a student in the first place. No! What am I even doing here in the first place? I should be on a mountain somewhere, drinking away while staring at the horizon. Now that’s life," Zenchi muttered as he walked. After the incident with Viron, he was summoned by the academy’s principal.The damage he caused was more than he expected. 'All this lack of fighting is making me lose gauge of my strength,' he grumbled.Before long, he arrived at a tall building where the principal’s office was located.The last time he was here was when he first arrived at the academy. He could sense the presence of people surrounding the building, even though they weren’t visible."Thirty-two, huh? That’s fewer than last time," he muttered as he stepped inside.Immediately, a tall woman in her thirties, dressed formally, approached him. "The principal is waiting for you," she said before leading the way.In less

  • Viron's Questions

    "What did you say you did?!!""Calm down. It's just a simple spar. Why get worked up? It's not like we're trying to kill each other."Viron’s casual response made Zenchi facepalm."Have you ever seen any official public spar between family members of your age range before?"After a quick thought, Viron replied, "No.""Of course not. So you don’t understand how seriously the family takes things like this."Viron stared at Zenchi in confusion. Truthfully, he wasn’t aware of how duels in his family worked. Since childhood, he had always felt something was wrong—or rather, missing. There was an emptiness inside him, and with no direct family members to ask—since they were all dead—he was left in the dark.The only exception was his grandfather, the Patriarch of the family.But even he never paid attention to him.As a result, Viron spent most of his time in seclusion, alone. The other young Thunders then weren’t even allowed to be around him.That was why, when he got into the academy, he
