Ray finally reached where the slis were, "look soone's here" one of them said, "finally, let's kill him and get this mission over with" another hooded figure said.
Ray's blood spear appeared in his hands and he took a fighting stance, "did you see that" one of them said, "is he a mage or a knight", "don't attack him, let's wait and see what he's capable of".
"First, conceal our presence", "okay" one of them whispered so words, and imdiately they were erased from the world, "no one can see us now, we should enjoy the show". The hooded figures sat comfortably on the tree looking down at what Ray wanted to do.
The slis that were moving mindlessly in the forest spotted Ray and attacked him, Ray dodged their acidic goo and wanted to strike but they were too many, and he had no choice but to move back.
Ray kept his blood spear on the ground and a white light ford and his pet (silver) ca out.
"Use your speed to avoid their attacks, try to separate them from the crystal," Ray said to his pet and it seem to understand.
"Ti to try sothing new" Ray mumbled and stretch his hands, from the palm of his hands a [Fire ball] shot out and went straight at the sli in front of him, at that ti silver had started attacking so of the slis.
The [Fire ball] hit the sli and it disintegrated into a liquid form and the crystal fell to the ground, 'Woah, that is effective' Ryu said inwardly.
(You've earned 50 Exp for defeating sli)
Silver was using his speed to race around and confuse the slis, they could not keep up with that kind of speed and eventually he struck the first one.
He used his claw to attack the sli, silver's claw passed through the sli jelly body but he succeeded in hitting the sli's crystal and it fell outside making the sli to disintegrate.
(You've earned 50 Exp for defeating sli)
The system notified Ray, this was great news, it ant that Ray didn't need to kill the beast to obtain Exp, silver's kill would also count as his own.
This was one of the reasons Ray wanted silver to fight, he wanted to see how he had improved and also learn a little more about the system.
Ray attacked the slis repeatedly with his [Fire ball] spell, silver succeeded in killing three of the sli, while Ray killed the remaining seven of them.
Quest: completed
[Monster subjugation] Kill ten slis and retrieve their core.
Reward: 500 Exp
"Phew, that spell drains more stamina and Mana than I thought, I'm already dizzy from all the attacks, Ray picked one of the slis crystal and swallowed it and it did nothing, Ray swallowed four more of the crystal before his stamina refilled back.
The hooded figures on the tree were shocked by what happened, "a human swallowing beast crystal, that is just insane" one of them whispered, "wow, this is strange, we need to report this", "report, no we need to get him on our team, not reporting back".
Two of the hooded figures argued about what to do while the third one was still looking at Ray in shock.
"Hey, he's leaving, and we are reporting back, if we try to convince him to join us he might bring trouble, and besides he's an adventurer he wouldn't understand our cause".
"Okay, we going back, hey take us ho, I'm canceling the concealing spell", a portal opened in front of them and one after the other they jumped into the portal.
Ray looked up at the tree but nothing was there, 'i heard a sound, or is it my ears' Ray didn't think much about it and he gathered the remaining crystal.
"Why are you looking at like that?" Ray asked as silver was staring at him, "do you want the crystal?" Ray asked and he nodded his head and wagged its tail.
Ray fed all the five remaining crystals to silver as he didn't have any use for them, silver also felt rejuvenated after absorbing the crystal and Ray climbed on and they headed back to the village.
In a matter of seconds, they were at the entrance of the forest and Ray retrieved silver back into the system and carried his blood spear, and entered back into the village. He didn't want the villagers to see silver and think he's a beast.
The village head was the first to spot Ray and ran to welco him followed by the villagers at the eting, "did you defeat them?" the villagers asked, "yes they are gone, you can now resu your life as it was before".
The villagers rejoiced as Ray told them till one of them asked, "how do we know you defeated them?, maybe you just went into the forest and wasted so ti".
"Okay, if you don't believe , let's go into the forest together to check," Ray said and the man coughed.
"No, no if you defeated them, there is no reason to check," the man said quickly, he was clearly afraid.
"I need a place to rest a little before I head back" Ray told the village head and he was directed to the village head's house.
The village head and the villagers sat down again to discuss so issues after Ray left.
Ray approached the village head house and knocked on the door, the door opened and a beautiful girl popped her head outside, her face and Ray's face were just inches away from touching and Ray moved backward in shock.
"I'm sorry for scaring you" Ray apologized, 'who is this handso boy' the girl said inwardly, "no problem, who are you?" the girl asked.
"Oh, I'm Ray an adventurer", "I'm Ella, nice to et you".
