Earth claw lion [2]

A carriage with two horses could be seen at the rare, but it wasn't moving, and the sound of blade clashing against rock could be heard in the forest. Theodore is at a disadvantage because of his short stature in comparison to the earth claw lion's tall stature, which was more than 3 feet tall and well over 5 feet wide.

Even though Theodore's strength was nearly exhausted, his heart was set on killing this evil specie demonic beast that devoured his loved ones.

While Theodore is fighting, a black-clad figure moved cautiously and silently to the back of the earth claw lion.

The figure is none other than Aamon!

He quickly stabbed the earth lion in its ass hole, which at the time was the only part of its body that could cause it significant pain despite its enormous size.

Aamon didn't stop, and he began to trust the Knife in and out of the earth claw lion's body.

The lion was immediately alerted, and he furiously turned his attention to the human who had the audacity to pierce its body; not only that, but that same human was audacious enough to pierce its holy ass.

[The demonic beast's life has been reduced by 70%; every attack on it now increases by 30%]

[Your normal knife-handling efficiency has increased to 70%]

Aamon dashed chaotically to grab Theodore's sword, which had fallen to the floor due to Theodore's exhaustion from fighting for so long.

[Weapon: Sword (normal) was found in host's grasp]

[Your normal sword-handling skill is 0%]

After seeing the panel, Aamon reminded himself, 'Swords are more complicated than knives.'

With 17 consecutive slashes in various parts of the beast's body, it died and fell to the ground.

[Quest completed +10EXP]

[You are now level 2, all stats have been increased by 5, and you have received 5 free points.]

[You have received a reward: scroll]

[Would you prefer to receive the reward now or later?]

'I'll take the gift later because opening a scroll out of nowhere will raise suspicions.' The window vanished as a result of those commands.

"How did you accomplish that?" Theodore was taken aback by Aamon's strategy; he had never considered it nor seen anyone use it.

[Congratulations, host; you are the first person in the world to employ such a strategy.] [+5EXP]

'Oh, I'm rewriting history, and I'm still gaining experience.' Cool,' Aamon thought to himself as he extended his hands to help Theodore up.

"I couldn't leave you to die in the hands of the same demonic beast that took your loved ones because of my adrenaline rush," Aamon replied with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, I thought I was going to die fighting that earth claw lion, but now that we've succeeded, we can sell it to make money in the market, demonic beast, although they are very powerful and sometimes have hard body parts, their flesh is tender, and when taken, they can wash out impurities and repair tissues, and if the demonic beast is stronger, it will increase their strength," Theodore explained.

"Nonetheless, because you'll be going to TangXia, you won't be able to eat the meat, so I'll give you half the price. Take this pouch; it contains 15 gold coins, which, while insufficient, are the only funds I have on hand; I will give the rest to your family." Even if Theodore is a cheater, he will not cheat a boy who saved his life.

"Okay," Aamon understands the value of a gold coin; a good coin will feed a family of four for a month. Martial artists, on the other hand, will spend more money to obtain resources.

Aamon felt stronger, his arm and leg felt full of energy, and his intelligence had increased by 50% from before; he discovered that thinking about things had become easier for him.

While still in his thoughts,He helped Theodore place the massive beast on top of the carriage, which was then tied with rope to keep it from falling. After that, they both climbed back into the carriage and started driving down to TangXia martial arts academy.

'I should leave the free points for now; I'll use them for the appropriate stat when I need them,' he reasoned. Anyway, he still has a gift to open. the scroll.

'Open scroll,' he said.

[Scroll: skill scroll]

[Skill: wielder of death knife (active): When activated, increases aim and efficiency with any grade of knife. You must learn it by yourself]

The scroll entered his hands; it was brown and folded into the a cylinder shape, as seen in Medieval movies. The scroll fell into his grasp. When he opened it, he discovered words about the technique's theory as well as diagrams of people using the technique.

Unfortunately, he couldn't practice it in the carriage because it's too small; even standing, his tall frame might hit his head on the roof.

'I guess I should rest, but how long until we arrive at TangXia academy, this is the only reason I miss my previous life where we could use aircraft to speed up journeys,' Aamon laments, this world's transportation barrier was too damn slow.

"If I have the opportunity, I can build a vehicle and sell it for a very high price, and I might gain a lot of experience from it," he told himself. However, the main quest at the moment is to become stronger.

After a few hours, the sun has given way to the moon, who now rules the night with its flawless light. After a few hours of travel, the night also passed. It is now daylight, and they are beginning to notice other houses; they have successfully passed through the forest!

"We're almost there," Theodore declared.

The horses' steps soon came to a halt in front of a large building, almost like a castle but shorter; it is beautiful and serene, despite being only a short distance from the forest. Aamon couldn't help but gasp when he saw it.

His family's home was made of wood, almost like a hut, with the only difference being that wood was used instead of straws.

However, this castle was made of concrete-like materials, with a colorful metal roof and structure. It was far too advanced to be discovered in this world. No wonder a lot of young generation martial artist were studying martial arts here.
