Alfin was now out of the jungle filled with insects and was ready to explore the other regions as he now knew how big this world was and he had just seen the tip of the iceberg till now. He had to be cautious too as the monsters will get stronger as he reaches towards the center of the world. Alfin was particularly going towards the central region because that was where gods and monsters fought.
He was in a hope of getting something like the heavy sword, probability of finding another weapon of gods was almost zero but he was still excited to go there. He did not knew where the central region was so he taking random direction and left the rest on the luck. Alfin knew that the area in which he is right now was just a lost corner of this world where almost all the weak monsters live.
Now travelling was easy for him as he could fly now by using the aura force but not for long time as the consumption was too much. He would kill some monsters and rest for a while in some places and start his journey again, the monsters in this region were no challenge to him now. Although he could fly it still took him fifteen years to get out of the lost region. One could imagine how big this world was.
God knows what was keeping Alfin sane in this lonely world full of killing, he was never sad from the day he came to this world, though he was frustrated a lot of times. He was now in the different region but the monsters here were still not his match, as it was also one of the weaker region. He was getting stronger as the time passes by, he never stopped training as he got a gist of the strength of a god.
Only thing that was keeping him slow paced was the heavy short sword which was too heavy but he took it as weight training and the sword never left his body for a single second. He started calling the sword dominator as he could kill all the monsters he faced with one slash of it, the sword was deserving the name given to it.

It took him a hundred years to reached the boundary of the central region, as he could tell that just by the strength of the monsters present here. He could not go deeper inside the central region right now because there would be god level monsters that he could not even dream of facing. Now his plan was to explore the outer area of the central region and get stronger, he was on the halfway of reaching godhood, there was still a long journey ahead to reach that level.
The toughest fight he had after coming to outer area was when he fought a lion monster which was the size of a three storied building. It was very fast and its every attack was lethal, its instincts in fighting was abnormal.
Alfin was fighting with everything he had, he had to resort to dirty tricks again to win this fight as hiding and running away was not an option because it had strength advantage. He threw stones at its face which were filled with his aura force and made them explode just as they reach its face, the lion was not able to dodge the dust from the stones which hindered its eyesight and the noise of explosion causing loss of its hearing for short time.
He stabbed the lion's eye which was the softest part available to him when it was stunned with dominator causing it to go on a rampage, but instead of taking this chance to back away Alfin put all his strength behind dominator and pushed it towards its skull, he was lucky enough to kill the lion before it had the chance to attack him with its paw.
The monster meat was still able to provide him with traits and energy as the monsters here were stronger, after every single fight here he was injured badly but his wounds heal very fast. He awakened the sleeping sword dominator by chance when he was fighting when his blood dropped on it, now the sword was not heavy for him and only he could use the sword.
Previously Alfin could not inject his aura force in the sword as it rejected him, but the heaviness of the sword still helped him in killing monsters. Now he can inject his aura force in it and the sword has become easy to handle as its weight right now was negligible to him , he could easily kill the lion monster which was very hard to deal with. This gave him more assurance and he boldly started challenging strong monsters to get used with the sword right now.
Now he started going deeper in the outer area of the central region where all the strong monsters below the god level were residing. He does not wanted to live here anymore and his last hope for getting out of this world was to reach the level of god.
