My Magical System - Chapter 222

Eman didn’t mean to show off his title and strength. He just wanted to farm Soul Points, Experience Points, and Magic Cryst from the monsters.

Unfortunately, the monsters he killed from yesterday, none of them drop Magic Cryst.

Though, it makes him wonder why there were unusually more hostile beasts this time. He wasn’t implying that there used to be no obstruction from the beast when traveling here. In truth, more often, there were cases of beasts wandering in the middle of the road while a carriage was passing by.

They also experienced it when they were heading towards the Sunville Village the other day. And that time when they were heading for the reclamation mission.

But there was something unusual this time. There are more monsters, and they are more powerful compared to the monsters they have encountered previously. They looked organized as well, which is unexpected for them.

What he meant by organized was that they moved in groups and were led by a stronger one.

Regardless, regarding the revealing of his status as a noble, he didn’t need to hide it in the first place. Sooner or later, everyone will know about it anyway.

But why did he disclose it to the people he just met yesterday?

He also was wondering.

Perhaps he mellowed down because of the lighthearted atmosphere that they were exuding.

Furthermore, since he learned many things about them, he felt it was only a fair trade to disclose as much information about him.

The carriage went to a sudden stop once again when another group of hostile beasts obstructed their path.

“Eman, let us help you this time!”

Along with the other guards, Rossbert called out to him from the back.

Eman looked at them. He noticed the look in their eyes was different from before. It is probably their fighting spirit screaming for battle.

He nodded a second later. “Okay.”

“Thanks!” Said Rossbert with a grin.

“Likewise,” he replied while shifting back his eyes to the monsters ahead of them. In truth, he should be the one saying thanks to them. But Eman did not point it out.

He opened his mouth again, saying, “Then, I’ll let you handle the smaller ones while I’m taking care of the leader.”

Since there are far more hostile beasts this time, he did not reject Rossbert’s and the guard’s offer for help. Otherwise, it could be comprehended that he was arrogant. Also, after seeing him fight with the beast a while ago, and yesterday, it seemed like their fighting spirit soared high. It woke up their fighting sense.

After hearing Eman’s words, “Eh, you sure about that? That one is far stronger than the other beasts we encountered, you know,” said Rossbert with a hint of worry.

Right. This time, the beasts were led by a much stronger Beast. Even Eman could comprehend its strength. He could sense that it is way stronger than that beast yesterday.

However, on his face, there was only a nonchalant smile.

“No problem,” he said, then started moving towards the beasts without sparing a glance again to the stunned people behind him.

Led by him, everyone charged forward.

The battle only lasted for a minute with Rossbert and the guards did their best. The guards, although they still felt afraid towards the beasts, they weren’t as agitated as before. So their performance today was better than yesterday.

Some minor wounds were visible on their bodies. And they were exhausted as well. Only Eman and Rossbert look better. Though Rossbert was slightly exhausted.

They started to wonder how strong Eman was. He didn’t seem tired even after fighting that gigantic lizard beast just now. That beast secreted toxins that made it difficult to handle.

Meanwhile, all of them were gawking while looking at him.

Turning back the time to Eman’s fight against the gigantic lizard beast,

As usual, Eman struck the beast using his sword. Although Eman was able to cut one of the lizard’s legs, it wasn’t enough to sever the whole leg. It transmitted into his hand that the lizard’s skin was tougher than rock.

His action provokes the beast. To protect itself, It secreted purple gas from the tiny pores on its body which Eman believed was poisonous.

Eman immediately distances himself. He did not run away because he was afraid of it, he ran away to lure it away from the others.

When there was only him and the beast around. He equipped a dagger in his sub-weapon slot in his inventory. He used his speed while rounding the beast. At the same time, he materialized hardened soil in the form of javelins.

The beast could not even get close to him. It was receiving his attack like a training dummy.

The lizard tried another method. It even stretched its tongue to reach him. There were many occasions that it almost hit him. But Eman was still able to evade all its attacks. His speed was just outstanding.

On the contrary, the lizard continued receiving his attacks.

When all the accumulated wounds were more than the beast could handle, it suddenly dropped– exhausted on the ground. Eman ended it by severing its head.

When he came back, everyone also finished dispatching the smaller ones. They were now discarding the bodies out of the road. But soon, they stopped what they were doing and gawked when they saw him.

“Eman what is that?!” Rossbert asked in surprise.

“That lizard’s head. I think the crystal on its head is valuable,” he replied casually as though there was nothing to talk about. Right. On its forehead, there is a gleaming emerald crystal. He was attracted to it and thought it could be processed into an elegant pendant. That’s why he decided to take it. “Weirdly though, no matter what I did it won’t dislodge,” he added with a hint of puzzlement on his face.

A bead of sweat was visible on Rossbert’s face.

“Well, that indeed was a valuable item. However, it can’t be dislodged normally.”

“Really?”

“Mhm!”

“Then, can you tell me how to dislodge it?”

“Ahaha,” Rossbert laughed descendingly. “Sorry, I have no way of doing it. Regardless, don’t tell me you don’t know what it is?”

Eman paused for a moment and thought, ‘This sounds bad.’

He shook his head.

“I see. Uhm, it is called a magical stone. And only an expert spellcaster can take it out from the beast’s head without damaging the stone.”

From Rossbert’s explanation, Eman felt there is more about this stone.
