9. Moon Village

Early the next morning, dastan woke up and without waiting for Claire he logged in. As for how he logged in by himself, he didn't removed his helmet in the first place. No matter how much Claire persuaded him , he didn't listen.

After coming inside the game, he got up from the bad. After wearing a clean clothes which he bought yesterday dastan left the inn.

The timelapse of the game is same as the outside world but very few players could be seen this early.

Going straight forward to the gate of the village, dastan just stopped to buy a couple of things like healing potion, mana regeneration potion etc.

After arriving near the gate in a few minutes. He asked the guards about the direction of the next village which was close to raven village. And He left the village without even a second thought.

He started walking in a straight direction which guards pointed out. Even if there were turns he didn't took it but went straight by the forest. Because other then going to next village, he also wanted to level up.

Because on the top 10 ranking there are 7 people ahead of him. Even though dastan doesn't like to compete. But this game gave him something he wished for so why would he hide from crowd. In His whole life he was a cripple with no intersection with anyone. Now even his doctor will not remember him, If he walked in front of him. So now he wants to be known by everyone not some nameless fellow.

Just as he was 1 km inside the forest a loud roar woke him up from his thoughts.

Looking a little further away from him , there was a beast which looks like a combination of panther and a snake. With long tail and at the end of the tail is snake mouth, which was hissing from time to time.

Looking at the beast dastan hide behind a tree . Trying not to make a sound, he got little closer to the beast who was resting there with closed eyes.

Just as he was 5 meters away from it , dastan brought out his sword in his hand. And took a offensive stance. After breathing in and out. He suddenly ran forward with his fastest speed.

And just as he about swang his sword down ,the beast opened his eyes . Looking at the incoming attack. Beast let out a powerful road and stood up. And the sword missed it's head from few inches. After a slight jump dastan made a little distance from the beast.

As for the beast it was very angry for disturbing his rest. But dastan didn't mind him and started looking for next chance to attack. Coincidentally the beast was also level 20 on the verge of break through.

But even after being mad it didn't attack dastan but started walking around to test his opponent. It wanted dastan to attack it but dastan just stood on one place without moving a single muscle and watching beast' s every move.

Both of them trying each other's patience. Whoever will attack first, will definitely leave an opening.

Just as both of them grew impatient they directly attack each other on the same time. With a head on collision, they can find out their opponents real strength.

" Boommmm" after the collision both of them took a few step back . But just as beast thought that the opponent will wait to stabilize himself first, to his surprise dastan attack him out of nowhere. The sword made a contact with the beast lower jaw making it deformed. While winning in pain , it's eyes started to turn red. And it's whole body started to enlarge.

Seeing this changes dastan knew that the beast is going basark but he was happy because in this state beast will definitely make a mistake and that will be his best chance to defeat or even kill it.

With a load roar the beast rushed forward trying to knock him down with its head but just as it's head was about to make a contect with the sword. Beast suddenly moved in another direction making dastan surprised but he didn't had time to think because the snake tails surprise attack came next from another direction and it's attack were directly aimed at his face. With an unbelievable flexibility of his body dastan manage to avoid it with a small margin.

But dastan didn't let it go like that and suddenly swang his sword at the beast snake tail joint. With a cacha sound the snake tail seperated from the body after making a few jumps it's stop struggling.

The beast whose tail has been cut felt uncomfortable. His agility Started to slow down.it couldn't move as flexible as before. Giving dastan a chance to strike a number of times. At the end the beast reached its physical limit and died at the hand of dastan. Making him the victor.

( Congratulations for killing a shenther )

( Experience 250 points rewarded)

( Current level 20( 250/2500))

' huh.. 250 for one kill that's means I have to kill atleast 9 more level 20 beast to level up.' dastan thought.

After picking the important parts of the beast . Dastan left for his destination. After a 8 hours long journey, and killing on the way dastan finally able to see a village in front of him.

In this 8 hours dastan manage to kill total of 15 beast at level 20 , he once fought level 21 beast but the gape was huge so he had to run away from there. But fortunately dastan had leveled up to level 21 and only half way through to level 22.

After coming in front of the gate of the village with couple of beasts corpses behind him, made the people around him take some distance from him.

Dastan looked at everyone but ignored it. And directly went to the guards for some information.

" Hello sir , can you pls tell me the name of the village." Dastan asked politely.

" So you came from another village, this is moon village." One of the guard replied.

" It's still not the same villege " making dastan disappointed again.
