I had set up a few traps around the campsite. After setting up. I have waited for more than two hours. But still, there is no movement yet. I looked at the sky the clouds are getting darker. It's better to catch Pseudo Monster before it's start to rain.
I said to myself, "Nothing is going to happen. if I sit here expecting to prey to fall on my lap on its own; it's better to find out by myself."
I went out of my tent to find it. The foot of the mountain is covered with dense forest. I am camping very close to the border. In case something happens. So, that I can escape easily.
The Mountain Liz is quite large. But I am practicing, cultivating, and put up the camp at the one end of Mountain Liz. Where it's is close to the train station.
To find the pseudo monster. I need to go deeper. Monsters rarely roam around the border of the forest. I decided to go deeper. After entering deep inside few meters.
On the way. I made markings on the tree. It will be easy to find out. Whether I'm on a straight path or circling the same location.
So far everything is fine. Suddenly I heard a rustling sound.
I looked around to find where it came from. It's from a distant tree. The branches of the tree had a Sudden movement. Seeing that I moved closer to the tree.
I don't know the name of the tree. It had a huge trunk. Looking at it has grown quite taller. As I was accessing the tree. I got sudden chills. I move backward without knowing it.
After adjusting myself. I found an uninvited rude guest. Finally, I was excited in my heart. It's a rare Pseudo Monster.action
Looking at its shape and scale pattern on its skin. It's, " CERURA ORANTU SERPENTI." Word came out of my mouth. Pseudo Monster belongs to the Snake family.
It's a rare breed. It hunts down another Pseudo Monster as its food. Typical black snake and round eyes with Beautiful pattern on the skin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIts size is medium. Three times of a human length. It's best to attack it with the black sword. Let's see how far my progression had made in the first move.
I also readied myself to use a lightning circle for defense. The Snake Monster seeing me move backward. It starts to attack again.
I successfully evaded his attack. As I blocked its fang with my black sword. Looking at its strength. It must be at the end of the evolution.
A fully grown Pseudo Monster.
Its attack is quite strong but as long as I can avoid any frontal attack from it. I can avoid any serious injury. Its strength, when compared to warriors, is Quite low. It has the same strength as the Early stage of Trainee Apprentice Warrior.
But Monsters are naturally stronger than humans. Despite me having the same strength as a black snake. I am in a defensive mode. But I am glad it had low I. Q it using the same attack pattern.
Either use its deadly fang to inject venom into my body or use its long tail to break my bones. I safely guarding myself. Whenever its fang came close to me.
I know how deadly its poison is. So I am looking for an opening to slice its neck. I used a lightning circle. Sensing sudden power. The snake got frightful. Its movements slowed down.
Using its dilemma. I moved my black sword to slice its neck. The skin of the snake is rather thick. But I used my full strength from the start. The Sword went inside deeper. The cut was perfectly made.
The Snake's body dropped down. I had no idea. What has happened? Then l dragged the Snake's body back to my tent. Thanks to My marking there are no hurdles to my way back.
After arriving at the tent. I carefully placed the Pseudo Monster body on the ground.
I'm happy that it was Snake Monster. If it's something else. I have to think twice before consuming its blood for my blood element cultivation.
I started to dissect its body. I made a plan to sell its parts to a local Merchant Shop near my home. They do Pseudo Monster trade. Several hunters cannot break through in their lifetime or had injuries. Make their living by hunting Pseudo Monsters.
I bought a metal container to store Monster's blood. I make sure that the volume of the container is large. Because of it, I had no problem storing Snake's blood. Which had huge volume.
After draining the blood. I store the parts of the dissected body in another container for selling. It's not an ordinary container. It was made by a research center. It had a small space provision.
Like storage ring. It can store numerous objects. It's specially designed for PARAZAM HUNTER LEAGUE. To increase its income. The hunter league association needs lots of credit from the Trade Union.
Monster trade being the Backbone of the Trade Union. Hunter league decides to order a storage container. Specifically, for monster parts. They were made cheaply and distributed, sold among the hunters for low credits.
Such a move made soaring income to their hunters as well as them. Another reason it was cheap was that the container had a small lifetime. It can not be given for maintenance. It is one time use only. If you need it you have to buy it again.
As I was looking at the container before me. My perception turned on instantly. I got startled. I quickly store the containers in my storage ring. And went outside the tent to look for what it is.
I had a sense for a while that someone is spying on me. Especially when I entered deep inside forests. I felt that someone is following. But I am not sure about it. So I didn't mind it.
But now with my perception become active on its own. I am sure someone is here. I have no idea whether it's a friend or foe it's better to leave here. Luckily I got saved from exposing myself.
Even though my lightning cultivation is secret and known to few people. Eventually one day it will come to the limelight. But my blood and healing element is my secrecy. It's better to cultivate in a safe environment.
I decided to remove the tent and pack up my things. After a long journey, I reached home. I didn't even when to a Merchant shop to sell. A sudden turn of events made me more altered.
I said to myself, "It's safe to cultivate in a high-performance chamber. There is privacy for me. No one will know"
Later, at the dining table. I decided to ask Uncle James.
I asked, "Uncle James, I killed a Pseudo Monster at Mountain Liz."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing that Uncle James, not surprised but he said, "It's just a low-level Monster. What about it." Then he added, "only class level Monster can be a good opponent."
"While killing that Monster. I felt someone or something spying on me. I do not know what it is?" I replied.
Hearing that both Uncle James and Granny Park looked at each other's eyes. I don't know what they were thinking.
Uncle James said, " Did you use your lightning attack?" Hearing that I nodded.
Granny Park said, "If he is an assassin. You will be dead without knowing anything; So, even after exposing your lightning element. He didn't kill you. Which means he is no enemy."
Hearing her explanation. I gained some clarity. Uncle James said, "I believe it's someone send by your teacher to look after you." Then he added, "Remember I told you that he is expecting good performance from you."
I nodded hearing that.
After we had some conversation for an hour. I went back to my room for practice. I entered my room placed the meditation mat on the floor and began my cultivation.
I had a feeling that the limitation barrier is becoming thinner day by day. By Next weekend I am sure that I will reach a Mid-level Apprentice Warrior.
Next Day.
I boarded the train to the center. This time I was extra careful on the way. Yesterday's events made me quite angry inside. I don't like someone spying on me. I know this is for my safety. But I had to look for some other cultivation place to cultivate blood element.
I sighed thinking that.
Some hours later. I reached the Hansen Training Centre.
Today, I don't want to visit the library. I will spend my entire day on blood cultivation. As I entered the training room. I found a nearby chamber was not logged in yet. Looks like the girls didn't come today.
I scanned my credentials and entered my chamber. The door was locked automatically. I felt my entire being is relaxed. I smiled and took out the blood container.
I placed the meditation mat on the ground. I sat comfortably. Blood cultivation needs warriors to form runes in their conscious sphere just like the lightning scripture. But there is an extra condition. It required the monster's blood.. A warrior needs to consume the blood orally then recite the blood cultivation.
