“Spooky” Seth thought as his mind played over Roushi’s story, Goosebumps popping all over his body.

The words, “boundless arrogance has nothing to do with a weak man” kept resonating within Seth’s mind, and truthfully he agreed, but what could he do when he was somewhat of a prisoner to his own actions, the memories of what happened the last time he had tried to suppress his arrogance were still fresh in his mind and Seth wasn’t looking forwards to that experience again.

“Damn old man, just when I was planning to have lots of fun, he had to come and kill my mood with such a tragic story” Seth complained, but before he could lament any further, he saw the air around him twist and the next thing he knew, he was lying on the floor outside, the church nowhere in sight and the heavy rain drops splattering on his body.

“Could this get any worse?” Seth thought, annoyed at the sudden change in scenery, but just as the thought left his mind, he sent his body rolling to the left with his right hand, the loud sound of something crashing into the ground appearing behind him, but when he finally turned to look, all he could see was a dent in the ground, its creator nowhere to be found.

Seth currently stood in a small clearing where the church had been, but with the church now gone, it made for an excellent ambush location as all around him were trees, excellent spots for his attacker to hide and easily observe the exposed him.

Ignoring the rain drops which seemed to be trying to beat his eyes close, Seth peered into his surrounding, turning around to search for his attacker in vain, his vision dulled by the rain, his nose dulled by the rain, and his ears dulled by the rain,

“I never considered that the rain could make for such an excellent cover at the night” Seth muttered.

Seconds passed and no attack came, so Seth decided to try abandoning his open position and move into the trees, but just as he took two steps, his instincts flared in alarm as his ears barely picked up on light footsteps approaching from the back.

Not wasting a moment, Seth tapped his feet on the ground and spun around, preparing to deliver a kick to his sneaky attacker, but the long tail that greeted his sight had him jumping to the ground preparing to go into a short roll to dodge the tail and then a sprint at his questionable attacker, but his plans never played out as immediately he dropped to the ground, another tail came slapping at him, blocking his roll path and forcing him to prematurely stand up his hands crossed in front of him the only defense Seth succeeded in putting up and he was slammed into the earth, he had been wrong about his number of attackers.

“Is it a coincidence that I was slammed into the ground and not flung into the forest? “Seth thought as he quickly got to his feet and caught another tail that was heading for him.

“Growl” an animalistic cry came from the owner of the tail he was holding onto, and Seth could feel the creature desperately struggling to pull its tail away in vain.

“And there you are, “Seth thought with a grin as another tail came whipping at him from his side, but this time he could barely catch the image of a creature having a snake body, but with lizards legs, it’s probably poisonous fangs being bared at him while one of its claws slashed at him along with its already incoming tail.

Watching the approaching attacks, Seth didn’t move out of the way or try to put up a defense, he instead firmly held onto the tail of the still protesting creature and pulling on it, lifted the creature off its feet and slammed it into the other creature attacking him.

Both creatures smashed into each other, their collision sending them crashing a short distance into the trees around them, Seth following after with a curious mind.

Perhaps under the rain and utilizing their black bodies, they were close to invisible, but as they lay on each other, immobile and heavily bleeding from the various injuries they had sustained on their heads and bodies, Seth finally had a good look at them.

Black creatures with exact snake-like bodies though much wider and having four lizard-like limbs, and though he couldn’t identify them, Seth was sure that they were monsters.

Though they stood at around 15 meters in height, Seth could feel the powerful vibrant qi in them which put their power in rank no less than rank 8 beasts.

Seth’s blow to the monsters had definitely been more than enough because as he stood by the monsters observing their features, one of them had opened its eyes only to immediately catch the image of Seth just some meters in front of it.

A roar that gradually turned to a cry left the monster’s mouth as it struggled to attack Seth, but found its limb bent at awkward angles and its body pinned to the ground by the other monster and was forced to eventually give up.

Alice did mention the issue of him bringing back valuable monster parts, but Seth doubted the beat up monsters in front of him had anything of value, he ignored the whining beast behind him and began walking away, thoughts of the old man’s story all forgotten as he thoughts on how he could go about finding the soul fruits filled his head, but just as Seth was leaving, his eyes caught sight of the clearing and he couldn’t help but curse out.

“Damn old man, the only thing he could do was tell me spooky stories and then walk off, he didn’t even assign me a mission or give me some directions” Seth lamented as he wandered off under the unforgiving rain.
