Heavenly Monarch - Chapter 134

After the party night, everything return to the way they used to be as everyone went back to their various business. Meanwhile in Ellis courtyard the three sat on a chair with a bore expression on their face.

” Ah, I miss the days we had in the the hunters guild unlike this place where everyone is so damn serious with what they are doing” said Ray with a sigh.

” You can say that again, if it were to be in the guild, by now is either I am attending to the wounded or am sitting in my office while watching you all watching to the quest board to pick a quest” replied jenny.

” There is no more taking risk and just sitting down lazily”added Ellis.

” I wish I can just go back to the guild” said jenny after a long time

” No one forced you to come along with us anyways” replied Ray as he turn to look at jenny.

” My coming here has not thing to do with you okay” replied jenny as she scoffed at Ray.

” If that so then quit complaining already” said Ray.

” That’s enough guys, since we have nothing else to do why don’t we go to the market to take a look around and see if there is anything we can get our hands on”said Ellis as he got up from his chair.

” I have already found something to do though” replied Ray

” And what could that be” asked Ellis confusing since all Ray has been doing was sitting there lazily while arguing with jenny.

” What else if not to argue with jenny and before you know it, its already getting dark” replied Ray with a smile.

Hearing what Ray said, Ellis sigh as he said.

” That’s not interesting enough complain to going to the market to take a look at what they have on sale, we might even come across a treasure if we are lucky enough”

” Oh well since it has to be a treasure then I am in” replied Ray as he got up from the chair.

Seeing that Ray has already agreed to come along, Ellis became really excited and was just about to walk out but he noticed that jenny is not coming with them.

” Ain’t you going to the market with us” asked As he turn to jenny

” No, I think I will wait for you guys here beside there is something that I really want to try out so I won’t be coming” replied jenny with a smile on her face.

” Since she don’t want to come along with us then let’s be on our way” said Ray as he pull Ellis by the hand and walk out of the courtyard.

The moment they step out of the courtyard the two of them went straight to the market where they begin to go from stack to stack in search of something good but were not able to find anything that could catch their interest.

” Looks like I just wasted my precious time coming here” said Ray with a sigh.

” We cant give up hope just yet” replied Ellis.

” What makes you think that we will find something here” asked Ray seeing the way Ellis was acting.

” That’s because i heard from josh that a certain item will be brought here by one of the worker to sell off” replied Ellis.

” And what could that be” asked Ray whos interested was already on the item mentioned.

” I don’t know, he only said that it was a lock chest that it body has worn out due to the passage of time but they did not know what was kept inside which is why they are selling it out” replied Ellis.

” Okay since it has come to this, I say we should search the whole market for the it, I have this feeling that it is a treasure chest” said Ray as dash from one place to another.

After searching for long with no hope of finding anything good, Ray gave up on the search and decided to go back to the courtyard but as they were about to leave a new stack was open and the seller begin to announce his product.

Rushing back to search the goods, Ellis pick up an old chest from the stack as he begin to scan the it.

” This must be the chest that josh was talking about” said Ellis after examine the chest.

” Give me that let me take a look” said Ray as he took the cheat from Ellis in order to inspect it but the moment his hand came in contact with the chest, Ray suddenly received a notification from the system.

*Ding*

[ Congratulations for discovery silver chest]

” It is actually a treasure chest and by the look of it something great is hidden inside just like it is in a video game” said Ray in excitement.

” What are you talking about” asked Ellis when he heard Ray saying words he don’t understand.

” No need bothering about it since you won’t understand a thing I will say but all I can is that it is a good thing” replied Ray with a smile on his face

Hmm, since it’s not that different from a video game, leveling up will be easier. After adjusting my state of mind I decided to look for the steps leading out of the mountain, but before I could continue with my journey I felt the energy inside me surging. Not knowing what if I am going to self-destruct I asked the system for information.

” System what is happening to my body”.

*Ding*

” Host is gathering more energy from he’s surrounding due to the increase in his cultivation level”

“So the more I level up the more I will experience this”

*Ding*

” The more the host experience a breakthrough the more he will be able to feel the energy flowing around him and with each breakthrough the host also experiences an increase in his strength.

If you say so, then I won’t bother myself with it. I started searching for the path that will lead me down the mountain and truly my movement became swift the more I walked, and it seems like my senses became sharper to the extent that I could hear the sound of footsteps coming from the mountain, though I could not point out where they are coming from, I knew it from the undead creatures.

With my grip on to my sword tightly, I made my way down the mountain only to come across another beast but the beast this time seems different from the bull I fought, having the body of a human, goat head, and the legs of a horse while holding a shield and a blade.

Nice, time for me to have a little training here in the mountain while finding my way out. Seeing the beast getting prepared to charge I quickly ran towards it to initiate the first strike to gain the upper hand only to see the beast swinging its blade to meet my blade head-on without backing out.

After exchanging three moves with the beast I knew this one is faster and stronger than the previous one and seem to have intelligence in combat, fighting its head-on will not give me the advantage over it unless I keep on attacking it from different angles and if his reaction is slow when defending itself from different angles. Taking a step back to create space between us before rushing to the beast but turn to its side to deliver a slash, and it connected leaving the beast with a big wound.

It’s very slow in defending itself from its side, giving me the advantage. Taking another step forward, I sent out another slash only to later dusk and deliver a slash at its legs before rolling to the side to deliver a stab at its stomach leaving it open with rotten intestines coming out mix with black blood.

After delivering many attacks to the beast its aura became weaker, and its breathing became intense, and it’s started glowing which signifies the activation of its skill. Knowing my attack could no longer cause any damage to the beast, I started running around to create distance between us until it will run on cooldown but dodging its attack was not easy.

After distancing myself from the beast, it keeps on chasing after me while unleashing attack upon attack, and I could barely dodge them all leading to my health running low but at long last its time on being in the rage state was up leaving it vulnerable to all attack, taking my time to attack and create a fatal blow to the beast I slew it after wearing it down for 5mins.

Hmm, nice move, with this move leaving the mountain will become easy for me. After observing my stats I place my free in dexterity granting me more speed.

After closing my stats and preparing to continue my journey I suddenly received a notification from the system.

*Ding*

Savage fighter beast core has been obtained

Savage fighter torso has been obtained.

What the hell is wrong with this system, obtaining beast core and torso what am I supposed to eat them or what.

*Ding*

Eating the core and torso of the beast will lead to energy assault within the host body leading to self-destruct and beside it a waste to consume them for they can be used to make equipment or sold out.

After searching for stairs leading out of the mountain, I discovered the day is getting dark indicating it almost night. Making haste I made my way down the mountain so far so good I have not come across any undead creatures which is good since I don’t want to spend my night here in the mountain.

Unfortunately, my wish never came through for the whole of the mountain became dark, and I started feeling an intense aura coming my way, bracing myself for incoming battle only to lose the will to fight after seeing what is heading may.
