2022-03-30 13:02:29Harley led the sheep to the south-eastern corner of the town, directly into the wide quick mud, and they got stuck in it. They kept struggling to get out, and that made them sink deeper rather quickly.
“Hmph, enrich the soil, you filthy sheep,” he muttered before flying away on his crow.
Only seconds later, Lice arrived there. It tried to hop on top of the sheep to reach the other side and run away into the fields.
Fabby, too, reached there and was out of breath. However, after seeing the monkey run away into the fields, she didn’t want to pursue it any further. It was just too dangerous to get far from the town because she heard that many beasts would be roaming all around the town for a few days after the war every time.
Fabby’s gaze was now set

In a small room inside the hospital.“You are wounded badly as well. You shouldn’t go out,” the nurse warned Edgar.“Mm,” he nodded, resting on one bed. His forehead and shoulders were wrapped in bandages.Fabby was resting on one neighboring bed, which was a foot smaller in height. Both were connected by the copper tube that was transferring blood.“Luckily, both of you have the rare AB negative blood type,” the nurse said as she removed the needle out of his arm. “Otherwise, the situation could’ve been bad.”“Wait, why are you removing it?” he asked.“You’ve lost some blood, too. You’ll be
WHIT 55 - THE ELEVEN-HORNED RHINO
Towering almost two-stories tall, the eleven-horned white-skinned rhino weighing over ten-thousand kilos was thrashing its way through houses. The brick walls, the wooden walls, and even the stone walls couldn’t stop its momentum.Even though a ten-man squad of flying guard squad was showering arrows and bullets, they couldn’t even scratch it. Though they were aiming for its eyes, the horns covering the face made it almost impossible to precisely hit the eyes, especially while it was on the move.Harley shot arrows coated with Red-Drive, but even his arrows that could pierce through boulders could only scratch this beast even in spots where its skin was supposed to be softest.“If only we could at least slow it down…” Harley was gritting his teeth. “Where the hell are the Four Dr
WHIT 56 - STILL STANDING, BUT...
The rhino left destruction and death in its wake. A small hand could be seen under the rubble. It definitely wasn’t an adult’s.An old woman got her leg crushed under a falling wall, and she was howling and begging for help. He couldn’t move from here. However, amid the chaos, nobody cared for those stuck under the rubble. Most people were busy running for their own lives.At one place, the rubble was blasted aside, and a person covered in blood got up to his feet. It was Edgar. His fist was covered in white lightning.He was furious more at himself than at the beast that had put him in this state. And with every heartbeat, the lightning around his fist got hotter and hotter to the point it was burning his flesh.He could hear the devastation the rhino
WHIT 57 - A LONG DARK NIGHT
The whole hospital collapsed, but nobody cared to help. Other than one single soul, pushing the rubble aside and looking for survivors, no other helper was in sight.“Please be alive, sis,” Edgar kept digging through the rubble fast while being gentle and careful.Before he could find any soul, a wild dog had snuck in from behind and bit his shoulder.“Ahh!” Edgar cried out. The dog was of typical size, but its bite was freakishly strong and bone-gripping. Edgar screamed and grabbed its face. His fingers instinctively searched for its eyes and poked them. The dog squealed and let go of his shoulder. He lifted a big block in the rubble and smashed the dog’s head with it.His shoulder was hurting, but he didn’t stop. He kept searching. F
WHIT 58 - REWARDING VICTORY
At dawn, the town bell rang three times, signaling the victory of the humans. But it was still risky to come out. After an hour later, another bell rang. This one meant that most threats lurking about inside the village were also taken care of. Only then people came out of their houses that were still intact and witnessed the blood and gore.The air didn’t smell nice or feel fresh like the usual days, and the scent of death dominated all.Most people were heading toward the town council, which was made of the important and influential people of the clan. There was no particular head that ruled over it, but, in general, the baronet’s words still held more weight than of others.Thousands were gathering at the council, both the ones who fought in the war and those who stayed in their homes.<

The Four Masters took the stage and broke each other’s records. Dubril Zha: 328. Corio Zha: 346. Bushin Zha: 387. Ashang Zha: 502. “Are you kidding me?” people were gasping, especially after hearing Ashang Zha’s number. “He killed five-hundred beasts without even suffering a scratch?” “The First Master is a monster! He killed the mountain lion that has killed so many warriors.” “The other masters are not far from him either. They’re monsters, too!” “If they hadn’t been protecting a lot of warriors and taking care of a lot of things, they would have killed many more.”
WHIT 60 - PLANS IN MOTION
“Hundred is a great number, but unfortunately, it’s still not enough to get you a wish,” Jorga told Edgar, expecting what the boy was going to ask. “But if you’re willing to stay in this town for the next ten years, then I can grant you a dignitary token, with which you can buy goods and resources for reduced prices anywhere in the town.” “I don’t want a token,” Edgar straightforwardly said. “Give me money if you can.” “How dare this kid demand things from the council!” some onlookers rebuked him. “Just because you killed some beasts, you think you can ask whatever you want?” Jorga raised his hand, and the people stopped. After discussing with the council members for a minute, Jorga said, “We’ve always given resources as rewards instead of money, but we’ll make an ex

If not for her age, I would have slapped her!” Not minding the people’s opini

273 - CRAZY BEAUTIFUL GIRL
After bathing in the mud pool created by Elder Gavin, Edgar came down the mountain to bathe in the river, as per his sister’s orders.“My Fuzzy Step has gotten much lighter,” Edgar found himself smiling. “I don’t feel any soreness in the muscles. The pain in the toes and shin is also completely gone.”He felt so refreshed, he jumped off tall, thin boulders that were hundreds of feet apart.And he jumped in the river with full energy.He swam underwater like a fish and shot himself out of the water like a fish and landed on the shore.To his surprise, there was a girl who just covered herself with clothes. Her hair and body was still wet. Her thighs and below were still uncovered.Her skin was so white. He had never seen someone so white before. And her blue eyes were striking.“I-I’m sorry,” Edgar turned the other way. “I didn’t know you were in the river.”“This has never happened to me before,” she uttered in a cold voice.“What never happened?”“Someone disturbing my peaceful bathin
272 - CLOSED BOOK
Edgar woke up, only to find himself in a pool of mud. He could feel that he was being healed by fish that were swimming in the mud and were nibbling at his skin.At first sight, it might look like they were eating him, but they were actually taking away the negative energy from his body, though he was not able to feel that.Edgar tried to grab one of those fishes, but they turned into pure mud, pleasantly surprising him.He looked at Fabby who was sitting in the distance, by the cliff. “What are these fishes, sis?”“Elder Gavin made them with his drive. He said they can suck away impurities from your body and make you stronger,” Fabby explained. “He said even your drive will get smoother and faster afterward. Also, the negative effect the beast cores have on our bodies can also be reversed, or so he said.”“Such a thing is possible with drive?” Edgar was both surprised and doubtful. “These fish are biting me, but I don’t feel any pain.”“Yeah. Just stay there until all those fish are
271 - DAY BY DAY
The eagle brought the siblings to a mountain range and dropped them next to Gavin who was weaving gloves with drive.He wasn’t surprised to see the position the siblings were in.“Here,” Gavin handed the gloves to the eagle, and it put the gloves on its feet and then screeched in happiness.“Haha, you like them, huh,” Gavin smiled. “They are durable as I knit them with my drive. So, don’t lose them.”Scree~!The eagle replied in a confident voice and then began to walk around happily in its new footwear.“They look like gloves, but they should be called socks, I guess?” Gavin wondered. “Ah, well, whatever…”Gavin then looked at the siblings, out of whom only Fabby was still conscious. She was trying to sit up, and it was taking her a while.“You don’t seem to have any external injuries. You are probably tired from using too much energy,” Gavin said. He sent a bullet of energy into her forehead, which didn’t hurt her but went straight into her brain and melted into it. This suddenly ga
270 - A DIFFERENCE TOO BIG
“Surfing Strike!’ Edgar’s foot viciously struck Ryu’s face and sent him flying high like a rotating paper fan. Any normal person would have had their head separated from their shoulders from that kick, but Ryu’s neck was flexible as well as sturdy as rubber.Ryu grabbed his head and stopped it from spinning before somersaulting and landing in the distance.“Huh?” Fabby was quite shocked by it. “Why is he not dead? Is he even human?”“His body is a bit special, you see,” Anarga smirked and then looked at Ryu. “But, hey, how could you get hit by that brat like that? You should be glad that there isn’t anyone else around, or it would have brought such shame.”Blood leaked from Ryu’s ruptured upper lip. He licked it and faintly smiled. “It’s been a while since I tasted my own blood.” His eyes turned red.“Oh, crap…” Anarga skipped backward. “You guys brought a disaster on yourself. When he goes into that frenzy mode, he’s unstoppable. Even I wouldn’t dare stand next to him because he can
269 - KNIGHT OF NIGHT
Anarga squeezed Edgar’s chest down, but when Edgar saw Ryu step toward his sister, he uttered, “Thunder Knight…”The ground beneath them cracked, and the air around them crackled. The very cliff itself vibrated in resonance with Edgar’s heartbeat.Anarga lost her balance just for a second. A double-edged lightning spear appeared in Edgar’s hand, and he thrust it right through her abdomen.She thought it would leave a hole in her, but it didn’t. However, it then electrocuted her to the point her clothes were half-burnt, and she looked like a semi-roasted grizzly bear.Ryu immediately clawed through the middle section of the spear and then took Anarga and jumped a few feet away. “How could you be so careless?”Anarga fell on one of her knees. Blood leaked from both corners of her mouth, even though she tried not to leak any blood.“Does it hurt that much?” Ryu asked.She gave him a glare.“I see…” Ryu then looked at Edgar, who was rising off the ground without the use of his hands, as th
268 - DRAGON THAT DEVOURS ALL FLAMES
Anarga’s body went into the rock, causing cracks all around her to spread for over thirty feet.Ryu’s feet were still locked by the earthen boots that Fabby had created, but he forcefully broke through them and whipped his leg at Edgar. “Dragon Knock!”“Ngh!” Edgar raised his left arm and blocked the kick with his forearm.Ryu’s foot forced its way through Edgar’s flame drive and struck his forearm and hit a nerve, sending a jolt of shock through to Edgar’s brain. On top of that, Edgar’s forearm got dislocated near the elbow.Ryu’s kick still sent a gust of energy over into the distance, which ended up blasting away a part of the cliff, shocking Fabby and Edgar.Fabby’s heart shook at that moment because if Edgar hadn’t deflected that kick, he wouldn’t have just got his arm dislocated. It was Edgar’s hunter-like instinct of parrying the kick at the last second was what saved him from experiencing a crushing defeat.Ryu didn’t even use drive. Whether he could even use drive or not, Edg
267 - HOTTER THAN FIRE
“Is this the best you can do?” Ryu said disappointedly. “I know you can do better, bald brat.” He treated Edgar as nothing more than a kid because he was much older than him. “Why don’t you show me what you got, or I’ll kill this bald girl.”Edgar, who was bleeding profusely from the chest, felt his soul stirring madly after hearing Ryu’s words.“Don’t listen to him,” Fabby said in a low voice. “We are not their match. Fighting them will only put us at a disadvantage. And there’s no one else here to stop the fight in case things go bad. It doesn’t benefit us in any way no matter how I look at it. Moreover, you are already badly injured.”Fabby’s words made total sense, but there was one thing that she didn’t consider. Edgar just couldn’t digest let alone accept the fact that Anarga Utsav had used her wind attack and pushed Fabby off the cliff. What if Fabby died from that?Edgar utterly disliked Anarga as well as Ryu. He didn’t want them to leave with a sense of victory.“Sis,” Edgar
266 - PERSONAL MISSION
“AHHH!” The siblings cried out in horror, mostly because of the pure shock value. Their eyes sprang out of the sockets. They totally didn’t expect that the eagle would do such a thing.Edgar was about to use his skill, but Fabby quickly said, “No, wait.”“Huh? Wait for what?” Edgar asked her back as winds viciously whipped at their faces.“Just wait,” she replied. As both of them kept getting closer to the ground, Edgar’s heart raced fast. “Screw this. I’m-” he was saying, but then the eagle suddenly came swooping down and caught both of them when they were about 100ft close to the ground and took them away with him.Edgar and Fabby held onto its talons so they wouldn’t fall.The eagle stopped by another mountain top and acted as if everything was okay.“You think I’ll thank you for saving our asses, you shitty bird!” Fabby punched the eagle hard in the face. “I thought I was going to die! You were the cause for scaring me near to death.”Even Edgar looked angry. His heart jumped in
265 - LOVE AND DUTY
Coming back to the present.The eagle had no idea who Edgar was, so Fabby had to do all the work except for flying. “Where is he?”She was worried for many reasons.The eagle even flew over the colosseum grounds, and she shouted for him, “Are you there, Eddie?”“Who’s that?” some masters and disciples wondered as she wasn’t clearly visible from below. “How rude of her to be flying over this place when the competition is still going on?”“He’s not here, either,” Fabby told the eagle to keep flying.As she kept looking around, she noticed someone bathing in an open pond. Just when she looked at him, he also looked up. She remembered his face mask. This was the same guy she met in a cave not long ago.Numo was not wearing a shirt right now, and his body was pristine white. It wasn’t muscular, but it still looked athletic and toned. It was very attractive, especially because he was a tall man.“Ahem,” Fabby looked away.After the eagle flew out of his sight, Numo continued rubbing his body
