'Where have all the magical beasts gone? How co I did not find any of them till now?'
Ace was currently in the Framingburns forest alone.
He traveled to Framingburns forest to test his new skill and get beast cores.
However, the Goddess of luck was not on his side.
He had been walking for more than thirty minutes, but he still could not find a single magical beast.
It was as if Framingburns forest was not the territory of magical beasts but an empty forest.
"I'm going to take a rest first." After saying that, he walked toward a tree.
To his surprise, six magical beasts appeared in front of him shortly after he sat under a big tree.
Without waiting for another second, he rushed toward them.
'Finally, my guinea pigs show up.'
If soone saw him, that person would widen his eyes in surprise.
Normally, anyone would avoid magical beasts, especially if there were a lot of them.
However, the sa thing did not apply to Ace.
Instead of running away, he chased the magical beast.
He even smiled happily as he rushed toward these magical beasts as if he saw sothing he really liked.
'System, activate Nether Lightning card.'
He said in his head.
[Ding! Nether Lightning card activated.]
mories relating to the Nether Lightning skill suddenly appeared in his mind, and he felt as if he had mastered the Nether Lightning skill for a long ti.
'Good!'
In a short amount of ti, Ace was already in front of these magical beasts.
"Grrr…" the lynxes instantly showed their fangs.
They were surprised by the sudden appearance of Ace.
However, they did not attack him imdiately and only showed their fangs.
Ace, who was standing in front of them, checked their strength.
'All of them are only at 1-star, huh?'
He was not disappointed because he planned to test his new skills on 1-star, 2-star, and 3-star magical beasts.
'Now let see how strong my new skill is.'
His body was instantly enveloped by blue lightning when he used the Nether Lightning skill.
At this mont, Ace did not look like a human being but the God of Thunder. "Co and attack ."
And as if the lynxes understood his words, they imdiately jumped at him, intending to bite him.
*Buzzz…
When they bit his arms and legs, the blue lightning struck them.
The lynxes instantly fell to the ground.
Even though they were still alive, but their bodies were frail.
They even could not stand up straight for eight seconds as if they just got hit by a powerful lightning magic.
Ace, who saw the lynxes, nodded his head in satisfaction.
Even though it was not strong enough to kill a 1-star magical beast, but it was still a good defensive skill.
'Hmm?'
When the lynxes were trying to run away, he imdiately swung his Phoenix sword, killing them in one attack.
'None of them have beast cores, huh?'
He sighed before finally walking toward a huge tree.
After sitting on the ground, he told his system to heal his injuries. "System, activate Recovery feature. Heal all my wounds."
[Ding! Three silver coins have been used to heal Host's wounds.]
"I hope I can find 2-star magical beast later." He uttered.
And as if the Goddess of Luck was smiling at him, 2-star Marten appeared before him shortly after he sat on the ground.
The Martin had black fur and was about half a ter tall.
Unlike the normal Martin, this one had two tails and a small horn on its head, as if this Martin was a cross-breeding magical beast.
'A martin?'
Ace imdiately rose to his feet and approached it.
When he used his new skill on 1-star magical beasts, the lightning only lasted for eight seconds before finally dissipating from their bodies.
So, he wanted to know how long the blue lightning could last on a 2-star magical beast.
'Let see how strong this skill is on a 2-star magical beast.'
As he was walking toward the Martin, blue lightning suddenly appeared and danced on his body.
The Martin instantly showed his fang and was ready to attack Ace.
He was furious.
He was displeased with Ace's actions, especially when he saw Ace walking with his hands behind his back.
It was as if he was nothing in Ace's eyes.
"Grr…" the Martin showed his annoyance.
If the Martin could speak, he would have yelled at Ace. It was a pity that he was only a 2-star magical beast, so he could only show his fang.
When Ace was close to the Martin, he stopped his footsteps and uttered, "Co and attack ."
The Martin wasted no ti and rushed toward Ace.
He hated Ace to the bone, so he attacked Ace instantly.
"Grrr…" the Martin opened its mouth before finally jumping at Ace.
"You want to bite my neck, huh?" after saying that, Ace put his left arm in front of him.
A drop of blood fell to the ground.
Even though the Martin was biting his left arm, Ace still had a calm *Drop…
A drop of blood fell to the ground.
Even though the Martin was biting his left arm, Ace still had a calm face.
His right hand was even still behind his back.
At that mont, all he did was only look at the Martin.
He did not attack the Martin.
He did not look at the Martin coldly.
He even did not care about his injury, as if the Martin was his friend, not a wild magical beast.
"Grr…" the Martin stopped biting and jumped to Ace's right side after the blue lightning hit him.
*Buzzz…Buzzz…
The blue lightning danced on Martin's body and attacked him.
Even though he no longer bit Ace, there was still blue lightning on his body because the lightning moved to his body when he attacked Ace.
However, the lightning only lasted for three seconds before finally disappearing from Martin's body.
"Grrr…" the Martin was ready to attack Ace again.
He was not afraid of Ace's skill because the damage was not great. As long as he could kill Ace quickly, he would win the fight.
"Hmm?" Ace looked at his left arm before finally returning his attention to the Martin.
'I see. So, it only takes three seconds for him to dissipate the lightning, huh?'
He finally knew how strong his new skill was on 2-star magical beasts.
'That ans this skill will only last a second on a 3-star magical beast.'
Of course, he was not disappointed because Nether Lightning was not an attack-type skill.
Sure, the damage of this skill was not great.
But, if his opponent kept touching him, it could be fatal and change the outco of the battle.
'But still, calling this skill Nether Lightning is too much.'
In his eyes, the na of the skill was really unsuitable because this skill could not kill 1-star magical beasts.
The skill that used the word Nether as the na should have been an extrely powerful and terrifying skill.
After all, Nether was a terrifying word, so calling this skill Nether Lightning was too much.
'Maybe I should change the na of this skill.'
As Ace was touching his chin and thinking about his new skill, the Martin showed its fang again.
He was annoyed.
He was furious because Ace acted as if he was air.
"Grrr…" the Martin jumped at Ace again, intending to bite his neck.
Even though Ace did not look at the Martin, he knew that the Martin tried to attack him again.
*Sring…
A blue magic circle appeared when Ace pointed his right index finger at the Martin.
The Martin was taken aback when a blue-colored lightning shot out of the magic circle and flew toward him.
He could not avoid it because he was in mid-air.
Bang!
The Martin fell to the ground after the lightning destroyed half of its head.
"You should have run away earlier." Ace spoke as he walked closer to the Martin's corpse.
'It doesn't have the best core either.'
He sighed.
When he was about to rest under a tree, a 3-star ogre appeared before him. "Human! I sll human."
Ace stopped his footsteps and uttered, "Oh, 3-star ogre?"
"Human! I will beat you, human." After saying that, the Ogre raised his humr, trying to hit Ace's head.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
But instead of defeating Ace, he got defeated by Ace.
Ace even defeated him in a short amount of ti as if he was a weak ogre.
"Strong human, I'm sorry." The Ogre ran away with a battered face. "I surrender. Please don't beat up anymore."
Ace, who was flying next to the Ogre, uttered, "Hmm? Didn't you say you would beat up? Why are you running away now?"
"Strong human, I was wrong." The Ogre ran with tears in his eyes. "Please let go. I was wrong. Can't you forgive this weak Ogre?"
[All divine beings laugh loudly.]
All divine beings did not expect the Ogre to run away while crying and asking for forgiveness because he acted arrogantly earlier.
"Sure. But you have to give sothing in return." Ace responded.
The Ogre instantly stopped running and took out three space rings from his pocket. "Strong human, I found these rings yesterday. You can take it."
Ace was startled. "Three space rings?"
"I picked up these space rings on the corpse yesterday." The Ogre told Ace that he found three human corpses yesterday.
Ace imdiately took all the space rings.
'It seems like the heavens are helping .'
In total, there were twenty 2-star magical beast cores and so money in these space rings.
"How…how is it, strong human? You won't kill , right?" the Ogre hoped Ace would not kill him because he had given Ace three space rings.
"Alright. You can go." Ace decided not to kill the Ogre.
"Thank you, strong human. Thank you." The Ogre instantly ran. "Mom, I escaped death. From now on, I will listen to you and won't attack humans anymore. Humans are scary."
[All divine beings burst into waves of laughter.]
"My harvest today is not bad. It's ti to go ho now." he decided to go ho because he did not want to stay the night in the forest.
----
Nightshire City, Rilt District.
"Just where is he?" Leo inquired.
He had been looking for Ace for more than three hours, but he still could not find him. This was the reason why he walked with an annoyed face.
'I will just wait in front of his restaurant.'
With that idea in mind, he headed to Ace's restaurant.
Ti went by quickly, and without realizing it, it had been forty minutes since he arrived at Ace's restaurant, but he still could not find Ace.
'Just where is he?'
He was currently standing under a tree.
Of course, he was still wearing an annoyed face because he still could not find Ace.
And as if the Goddess of luck was smiling at him, he saw Ace shortly after that.
'It's him!'
