Nero, the Legendary Hunter - Chapter 88
Nero enchanted the Black Widow Sword’s blade and the attack power increased by 100. She jumped into the air and like a meteor, she fell pointing the sword to the ground.
*<Flaming Impact>!*
_ _
You defeated the Earth Monster: [Cow/Bull] Rank F: Level 8.

The message in her retina telling her that she killed Cow/Bull appeared about 15 times.
The others and the cows fled in fear.
Flames were burning the green lawn from the ground. 6 lines of fire marks have appeared and are still burning.
“Powerful!” Jingu and the rest were slack-jawed. It was the first time they had seen Nero use this attack.
*<Burning Wind>!*
Nero cut towards the fleeing cows and bulls and cut down more than 6 of them.

You defeated the Earth Monster: [Cow/Bull] Rank F: Level 8.

“Choko, if you just stand there, I’ll kill them all,” Nero said.
“Oh…” Choko woke up from her stun and went to attack again, as she already regained her vigor.
Choko also has the <Flaming Impact> ability, but it didn’t do as much damage as Nero did. She had a better attack, she used it.
*<Explosive Impact>!”
Her punch exploded on the ground and the bulls and cows around were caught by the explosion and some were stunned while 4 died.
Choko used Quick Combo, <Dragon Fist>, <Hurricane Punch>, <Storm Kick> and killed another 8 Cows and Bulls.
*<Lightning Leap>!*
Almost without vigor and mana. Choko took the bodies and fled.
She sat on the floor and meditated.
Looking forward, she saw a goddess, pear, it was Nero, with her hair blowing in the wind, with an armor that made her still beautiful and empowered, holding her sword, she cut the cows and bulls start if she was mowing grass.
It wasn’t her running away from the monsters, but rather the monsters running away from her, she ran after the monsters and killed them at an amazing speed.
Jingu and Honda were already red-eyed from rubbing to know if they were hallucinating or not.
Because… Even LV9 monsters were killed with one attack. It was worse than leaving a wolf in a herd of sheep.
There was even one who attacked Nero with the horns, and looks, he died… Why? It can reflect 70% of the physical damage taken and was too much for the bull. You can imagine the bull’s rage, he used all his strength and ended up dying from his own attack… Poor bull~
Worse than reflecting, it created a shock wave that stunned the surrounding bulls and cows, Nero quickly decapitated them all.
In less than 5 minutes, another 100 cows/bulls were victims of Nero’s attacks.
Now the whole herd of bull and cow feared Nero, they ran away from her, even though they were monsters, they wouldn’t fight someone who couldn’t even retaliate.
Nero had to keep running after them and killing.
Choko recovered after five minutes and returned to attack, this time she only killed 5. Because it was difficult, they were all running mad, afraid of Nero.
She also got tired of chasing bulls and cows to kill and had to rest again to regain her strength.
“This was supposed to be a fight against LV8 and LV9 monsters, yes?” Honda asked with a forced smile.
“Well, don’t forget Nero is already at level 12,” Jana said.
“That’s…” They nodded.
Nero’s constant abuse of bulls and cows continued, while Choko managed to kill 4-5 times. In the end, Choko killed 45 LV8.
Panting and sweating heavily Choko was sitting on the floor next to Jana and the rest.
Nero killed 333 LV8 and 114 LV9. And then there was the boss who also seemed to be shaking with fear as he saw Nero walk towards him.
“This situation is bizarre.” They saw a 5 meter tall bull running from Nero and Nero running after him and slashing with his sword.
“Damn you scared bull, stop running!” Nero screamed and ran even faster to stop in front of him and used: *<Flaming Impact>!*
The bull’s head was sliced like a watermelon in several pieces and on fire.
_ _
You defeated the Earth Monster: [Boss: Bull Bandit] Rank E: Level 12.

“Humph! Now you stop.” Nero snorted. She was getting tired of running after this huge bull.

Tucking it into the Hunter Card, she smiled brightly at the others: “Do you want to continue, or come back?”
“I want to go back, I want to get stronger, degozaru,” Jingu said.
“Me either.” Honda agreed.
Jair, Jana, and Breno also wanted to come back.
Choko was also quite tired.
“Well, okay then, let’s go back.” Nero picked up all the scattered bulls and cows, then put his hands behind his head as he started to leave.
For completing floor 4. Their name was engraved, even Jingu and the rest who did nothing, but as he was part of the group, they also had their names registered.
When they left, the entire city was waiting outside for the heroes who completed the fourth floor. A round of applause exploded and amidst hooves and screams.
Jana, Jair, Breno, Honda, and Jingu felt ashamed to be revered, after all, they did absolutely nothing on floor 4. However, they were still getting applause for something they didn’t do.
Even the mayor of the city came to honor the heroes, it was a very embarrassing situation.
After finally getting out of this mess, they all went to Choko and Nero’s inn. After all, they still needed rewards.
They even won medals from champions who conquered the 4 floors of the dungeon. It was really funny Jana’s reaction and the rest.
Nero and Choko managed not to laugh.
By now at the inn, they were looking at them who were red like a tomato and laughed every now and then.
“Happy to win medals directly from the city mayor?” Nero provoked.
“…”
They responded with silence.
“Okay, okay, I’ll stop anyway, let’s get started.” Nero put a talisman to not leak what they were going to say and started using <Plunder> on Jana, Jair, Breno, Honda, and Jingu first.
There were 33 Monster Cores for each 1 of LV7 and 2,739 for each of Coin. Jingu got 66 Monster Core LV6 and 4,818 coins. Honda got 67 Monster Core and 4,893 coins.
Jair and Jana got 10 Monster Core LV6 and 730 coins each. Breno 11 Monster Core LV6 and 802 coins.
In the end, everyone was quite happy, managed to make a small fortune, and got a lot of Monster Core. Apart from the items, Nero gave them and they would resell them later, as it had no use for them.
Choko, 33 Monster Core LV6: 2,442 coin – 37 Monster Core LV7: 3,108 coin – 45 Monster Core LV8: 4,320 coin. In total: 9,870 coins.
They gasped loudly at the sight of Choko’s result. Almost 10,000 at once and without selling the items that make even more money.
Nero’s result: 22 LV7: 1,826 – 447 LV8: 43,359 – 114 LV9: 24,852 – 2 LV10: 438 – 1 LV12: 292. In total, she made: 70,767 coins.
Honda muttered: “This is not good for the heart. Did she get all this from [Essence Coin] just using <Plunder>? Imagine when she sells the items…”
The others nodded in silence.
After that, they didn’t leave but started creating pentagrams on the ground and meditating with the Monster Cores on the ground.
“Hey, this place is small, go to your own inns!” Nero said.
They continued to meditate.
However, when Choko’s turn came, they saw what a monster she was. She not only pulled the energy from her Monster Cores, she was also pulling from them.
Quickly, they saved the Monster Core.
“We’re going, as Nero said, this place is small, degozaru.” Yes, everyone believed that lie.
The others left without speaking, Jana, Jair and Breno went to the reception to rent two rooms.

‘Well, it’s 708 Monster Core for me to level up.’ Nero sighed as he felt his strength grow absurdly.
She also felt a bad smell despite not leveling up, she expelled some impurity, she went to take a shower while leaving Choko meditating.
