The Black Pool

After leaving the injured human and elves behind, Kyle started running again toward the biggest golden cross mark.

He would stop from time to time to kill some low-rank monsters but overall his journey was quite smooth sailing.

The first reason was the white earring artifact he acquired and the second reason was Bia who was patrolling around the sky.

While walking the day turned into night, and just like that one week passed.

In this week, Kyle killed a lot of low-rank monsters. He also faced two newly ranked (-D)-Rank monsters and with the help of Bia, he killed both of them. But even after killing so many monsters, he wasn't even near a breakthrough.

On the other hand, Bia finally broke to (+E)-Rank after eating tons of precious fruits.

Kyle was a little scared, seeing her consuming so many resources just to break through to (+E)-Rank. But he soon accepted the fact that to make Bia rank up in the future, he had to empty his tiny pocket.
