Heroine
It was a great miracle that he got reincarnated in the world of the manhua «Blood Moon».
This manhua was not perfect and has many flaws to criticize, but even so, he enjoys reading it. He liked the story that goes from weak to strong. Especially if the main character has a mysterious background like his idol hunter, the man known as the Soloist Hunter.
There are elements in the story that are taken from real life. Like the appearance of dungeons that are no doubt derived from Void Lairs in his previous world.
Unfortunately, in his previous world, even though he dreamed of becoming a hunter, he was not lucky enough to be awakened.
However, with what happened to him now, he couldn't help but be delighted, especially because he dreamed of having magical powers like the hunters.
In this world where he knew what the future was like, he was certain to become the strongest someday. As long as he could get all the legendary items, in which he knew when and where they'd appear someday, no one was a match to him.
Saving Nenet Grand the other day was not a mere coincidence. This is one of the key events to get the first legendary item. He knew about Klein Dorolt's plan at that time in the arena and used it to his advantage.
His joining the Royal Chivalric was also an important key. There is a reason for his participation and it is also necessary for him to succeed in his mission to get the first legendary item.
Now he just had to wait two days from now. It was the chapter where the story takes him to the legendary item.
A calm Ray smiled inwardly.
He needed to get stronger as soon as possible to survive the first catastrophe that would happen in the near future.
'Klein is an important character that is needed in the early chapter of the story. But after fulfilling his role, he is no longer relevant to the story and will not be remembered ever again. It was his fate to die in that place. He should be happy though; his death will not be in vain. It is a good sacrifice for my success.'
"Kyahhh!"
"She's so beautiful!"
Ray passed by a large gathering. At first he thought there was a commotion, but looking at it, seems not. Ray found himself taking a brief detour and looking in that direction. He saw some students gathering around a certain group of students, like moths attracted to fire, or bees on a flower.
In the middle of the crowd was a dazzling beauty with her graceful figure. Her long hair was as beautiful as the full-bloom cherry blossom. Her warm gaze could melt every man's heart in an instant. Anyone who caught sight of her would be captivated by her charisma.
That wasn't only the most prominent thing about her. The reason for her popularity in the academy was because of her status as the person with the highest score.
If not the strongest, she was definitely one of the best.
«Cera Flores»
The most gifted student in terms of magic. Said to have the highest magical power.
Ray smiled. "As expected of the heroine. Her beauty is unparalleled."
Regardless, it wasn't the right time to approach her. He needed to be careful to not diverge the flow of the story. He at least knew the importance of maintaining the flow of the original story.
He continued moving towards the main building.
The bright sun sent dazzling rays to the world, giving off a wonderful mythical morning scenery to the lively crowd below.
But contrary to that, inside the lair, it was dark and dim.
Moreover, aside from his silent footsteps, there was nothing Klein could hear. The deafening silence might be unbearable for most people, but to Klein, it was nothing special. Nothing new to be exact. So despite being alone in this den of hostile creatures, he wasn't so bothered by it. It wasn't like something had changed from his previous life to his current situation.
After turning a corner,
Hissss hisss hasss hassss…
'There goes another familiar noise,' Klein thought while alerting himself for another confrontation.
To his surprise, two Void Worms were coming at him at the same time. One on his right and another one on his left.
They crawled their way towards him. Klein used his «Mana Blade» skill to summon a blade spike on the one to his right, however, it failed to hit due to the enemy's speed. The monster already passed the point where the blade spike protruded. It seemed the timing was off.
It wasn't because he was bad at timing, but…
"This one's speed took me by surprise!"
Whoops!
He quickly jumped out of the way.
Bang!
A loud 'bang' could be heard. A whisker whipped the area where he was standing just now. The ground trembled and splintered by the impact.
Debris flew away.
Klein's eyes widened in disbelief at the large hole in the ground. Imagine if it was he who was hit by that attack, he would certainly die by it.
Another shadow came from above, at a glance, he immediately recognized that it was the second Void Worm. A whisker came down like a whip, but Klein managed to dodge right on time. Surprisingly, he was hit by the flying splinters.
His body rolled away like a ball.
He crouched on the ground and wiped the blood in his mouth with his arm. Cuts could be seen on his body.
"Shit, despite leveling up, these two's speed is still catching up. Incredible!"
"Inspection!"
Klein used his skill and discovered the two Void Worms were a couple of levels above those Void Worms he encountered before.
"I see. So that's why…"
SOAAHHH!
SOAAHHH!
They screamed in unison. The pressure forced Klein to close an eye and be bound on the spot. He knew what they were aiming to achieve but it was futile against his blessing.
As expected, the fear inducement didn't happen. It looked like his resistance against it was absolute. If not because of it, he would have been trembling on the ground by now, cowering.
However, although its fear effect didn't happen, the sheer pressure their scream exuded was enough to pin him down on the spot.
All of a sudden, he was in a bad position. Now in the middle of the two.
Looking at the purple gas leaking from their tube-like mouths, a bad premonition crept on him.
Without a warning, they spewed purple gas at him.
Fwoosh~!!
