With that deep roar, a massive pressure from the darkness reached him from a great distance.
"This voice, this breath?"
The image of a terrifying creature flashed through his mind, but Layhader quickly shook his head.
"No, how could that be?"
"A powerful Dark Creature like the Deerhead Spirit hasn't appeared for nearly a hundred years."
"Though Sipigeng is a subspecies of the Deerhead Spirit, there's a huge gap in class between the two. Could the one I'm chasing really be the illegitimate child of that Deerhead Spirit?"
A wave of absurdity washed over Layhader.
Yet that emotion quickly disappeared, for deep in the dark forest, the powerful presence was steadily approaching him.
The monster had locked onto him!
"Damn it, what the hell!"
"A normal selection mission not only had the unexpected encounter with a Sipigeng, but in the pursuit, there's also a Deerhead Spirit, which is rarely seen in a century."
"What exactly is going on here?"
