Book 1:Chapter 6: The goddess on the lake

The forest wolves that pounced towards Regal is only two, while there's another two or three more shadows lurking around him. Regal thought of running but when he remembered the quest he abandoned the thought of running.

"I can handle two wolves at the same time, but four or five this is nuts. Being an adventurer sure isn't that easy"

As he was talking about being adventurer isn't easy one of the wolf that is lurking on the shadow ran towards him, and the other two earlier that pounced did the same.

'Shit! I'm now surrounded, I just need to face it head on and break on the encirclement'.

He ran towards the wolf that is on his back side and slash the scythe horizontally with his full strength. The wolf saw it and the wolf crouched and swiped it's paw wanting to tear Regal's leg.

But before the paw arrive at Regal's leg, he immediately draw the dagger between his leg and throw it with full power aiming at the wolf skull. When the wolf saw this coming it's already too late and the dagger dug into the wolf's skull halting the paw half way.

*Slain 1 Forest Wolf* (Exp+5)

Regal then ran to get some distance with the other Forest wolf that's chasing him. When the other wolf so what happen they halted and raised they're vigilant but also getting enrage seeing one of their kin getting killed.

Awoooooooooo!

The two Forest wolf howled extremely loud that can be heard from a far.

"Oh no! They're calling back up I need to ran!" Then Regal fiercely ran not caring for anything. The wolf pursued him. While running he's thinking of a way on how to survive. And he can hear that there's more rustling more wolves rushing forward to his direction.

Up ahead he saw a lake and without hesitation he jumped to the lake and dive down, he swam around wanting to wait for the wolf to jumped down the water so he can have an advantage and take them down on the lake.

But the strange thing is when the Forest wolves saw that he dove on the lake they halted, rather when they saw him getting near the lake they hesitated before they halted. Regal sensed this movement of his pursuers. Then he frowned 'are they that smart?'.

But after two minutes when Regal shown himself on the surface but he's 20 meters away from the land close to the center of the lake to get some air. He stared at the dire wolves that halted and hesitating and provoked the wolves.

"Hey not so tough now ha! Come here don't you want to eat me you damnable wolves! Come here. Oh Scared?" He shouted. But no matter what the wolves never step forward, even the new wolves that arrived.

'Strange... Beast ain't this tactful when they're not scared, are they scared of me? No that's not it. Then that only means there are stronger beast dwelling here!!!'

Coming from the center of the lake there's a massive pressure and suddenly a burst of stream of water rose up around 30 meters high, then one can see a shadow on that stream of water. When the water settled down there's a figure around 30 meter tall with a head of a snake except extremely large and the body is around 10 meters wide.

"Oh hello bless my luck, first wolf and now a basilisk damn it!" He cursed loudly.

He then ran towards the shore where the wolves are he doesn't care about a pack of wolf anymore. But can he swim faster on a basilisk on it territory? Of course not. In a matter of seconds the basilisk was behind him. Without a choice he grab the scythe behind him faced the basilisk.

To his surprise when the basilisk saw something in his direction it halted and stare at it with fear and reverence.

"Huh?" When he look at the basilisk that's staring at his with fear that's the only time he saw something above the head of the basilisk.

(Lake Basilisk Level 30)

And he stared back at the wolf now that he noticed the level of the Basilisk, he of course also saw the level of the forest wolves (Forest Wolf Level 3) Some of it are level 4.

When he was mustering his courage to fight all he can hoping of a miracle like an MC of some anime that will be powered up by his will.

Suddenly a gorgeous silhouette flashed with white long tight fit gown her hair down to his waist also white complementing his jade like skin, but with cold indifference in his eyes.

Regal then suddenly stunned on this lady that appeared suddenly.

Suddenly the lady draw her sword slow an inch about it's sheathe suddenly a burst of energy then A giant blue like wave of energy forming a pentagon diagram passed through the snake. In a blinked of an eye the snake lacerated blood spurting from it.

Regal was still in a daze suddenly when he saw the scene he was more shocked because of the power of this lady suddenly he wants to approach the goddess like lady before him.

"I'm Regal thank you for saving me" While Regal was walking towards the lady.

The lady frowned and she looked more attractive and she stare at him and suddenly said.

"I didn't save you, I just need something on this basilisk and it's convenient you manage to lure it out, nothing more nothing less. You don't owe me anything" Then a wave of energy block his path that if he continue he will be lacerated.

Something golden floated from the corpse of the basilisk and then the lady picked it up, after that with a dash the lady was gone. 'So fast'.

Waking from his daze looking at the corpse of the basilisk, then at packed of wolf.

"Even a lady is much more stronger than me on this world, I thought the basilisk was scared of me earlier when I decided to fight it. How naive haha." He laughed at himself self mockingly.

'You damn wolf I'm looking this pathetic in front of that goddess because of you'. He then turn towards the location of the wolf no matter how many they are. He decided from now on to be strong he needs to face adversary.

The wolf saw him running towards them they became ferocious. Regal then slashed the scythe at the nearest wolf, emitting a red glow a wolf got hit blood spurt and it became wounded. Then a strange dim glow of black aura gushed from Regal, while the scythe drank the blood of the wolf. They ferociously fight while the black aura coming from Regal grow brighter. And the scarlet glow from the scythe is more noticeable.

Regal fought without caring for injury anymore, but he still avoid being lethally injured of course, he traded blows per blows with the wolf. Each wolf that died by his scythe he's feeling the scythe is getting heavier and his bloodlust grew more intense.
