,m 'There we go.'
'I knew it, instead of helping , they will be the ones that will need help.', Shin made a weird expression as he saw all the three shadow wolves falling right into the river.
This place was filled with the river weeds as ntioned earlier, so even a slight touch in the river surface was enough to attract their attention.
Well, no need to even touch the water in the river, all it took was to just stand beside it to attract them.
But right now, the wolves were in the river where the deadliest water weeds remained.
'Now how do I bring them out?'
"…"
It was seemingly tough but Shin did think that the shadow wolves could get out on their own. Though, he had a little doubt.
And yes, his doubt was legit. As he thought, the river weeds caught their legs and prevented them from doing anything.
In fact, the river weeds started pulling them towards the riverbed.
Basically, the River Weed were monsters that looked like tall grasses however they had mouths right at their base.
Though they had no eyes, they had hyper-sensory skills that let them feel the aura just like the shadow wolves.
They had sharp teeth in their mouth which proved that they were carnivores. Their most common preys were fishes and boars that would usually run towards the river.
Shin seed sowhat frustrated right now but he knew what he had to do next.
He was quick-witted and thus ca up with a solution quickly.
"There is only one answer-"
'Inventory!'
Right after that, the three shadow wolves vanished from the water as they escaped from the grip and got stored inside the inventory. Without wasting any ti, he then let them out on the surface just next to him.
The shadow wolves were surprised because they were suddenly out of the water.
'What just-'
And then the mont they turned their heads towards their right, they found Shin standing with a devil-like aura around him.
"I told you guys to stay inside the shadow, right?"
"Then why the heck did you co out?"
"Want to play hero?", Shin was legitimately angry.
He knew that they tried to protect him and that was their job as assigned by Deoras, but Shin would be just fine by himself.
They were not only wasting his ti but also were wasting his energy.
If not for his inventory, he had to search for so other skill that could save them. He doubted if there were any other skills that would work and if there really wasn't any skill, the shadow wolves were pretty much fu*ked up!
The shadow wolves whimpered again but right now, this would have no effect on Shin.
He glared at them and said, "Stop the acting and get back into my shadows."
"Try doing coming out again and I would kick you out from my clan.", Shin warned them.
He was pretty serious this ti. No one had disobeyed him until now, and the ones that did – the shadow wolves in order to protect him were given a warning.
They understood that Shin was pretty serious and was not joking around and hence they said, "Forgive us, your Highness, we will obey you."
"We won't co out unless you order.", they just repeated what Shin wanted right after which they vanished into his shadow.
Without thinking anymore and just sighing, Shin continued his walk.
Before knowing it, he had already arrived at a place from where he could cross the river.
Yes, the river was quite narrower. Although he couldn't reach the other side with a simple jump, he could at least try swimming. The strength of the wave was ten tis less than earlier so he could definitely do that, however, he decided to think otherwise.
Yes, even though he could cross it, he decided to walk forward and the reason for that was River-Weeds again!
This ti, not one, not ten but a total of more than a hundred River-Weeds growing from almost the sa place were present.
It was precisely because of them that the waves didn't seem too strong as the water got obstructed.
Since most beasts would think about crossing from this place, the grasses grew taller and the river-weeds multiplied.
He could see so skulls and bones of various parts of the body of various other beasts.
'Sigh, how dumb should a beast be to go right into its death?', Shin questioned himself.
Whatever he had nothing to do with them right now. Without wasting any ti, he used his skills and again dashed forward.
He didn't stop or rather didn't want to stop unless he could see the river cleared. However, in this process, he ended up reaching the mountain Grekko.
Of course, since he arrived, he thought about exiting soon as well, but the system had different plans for him.
Perhaps, it was because he took this route that a new mission popped up.
*Ding*
[ Mission ] [ new ]
-> Defeat the Mountain God Blanca [ incomplete ]
-> Collect the secret Three-Star stones from Blanca [ incomplete ]
[ Rewards ]
-> Title: Ruler of the Mountain Grekko
-> Blanca as subordinate
-> 50% HP recovering potion x1
When this new mission popped up, Shin was annoyed. He was trying to concentrate on one thing but the system wasn't letting him do it.
It was partially his fault as well since he chose the current path.
Yes, when Shin and Aella had first arrived in the forest of Thuren from Islea, they had to swim across the sa river.
However, it wasn't rainy season then, and also, the river actually got narrower at another part.
The part was further down of the river but the reason why Shin refused to go that was that it would consu too much ti!
Well, now he was proved otherwise since the current path was taking much longer.
Even though a new mission did pop up, his previous mission seed to be in danger.
'What if I get injured?'
'Wouldn't that an I failed to get to the Arena safely?', he wondered.
