…

Lothur saw his status appearing and showing his advancement. He then saw his various resistances that were affected by the advancements of this experience.

The only resistances that had not been positively affected by this had been those for poisons and darkness, which were elements based on negative Natural Laws.

He viewed all this in an extremely satisfied manner, seeing how he had improved after only sleeping for half a day in that green pool.

‘I have improved my Intelligence significantly…’ He noticed the sensation in his body as if he was deciphering some truths of this world’s nature just by breathing.

Because of this feeling, even though the numerical value of his Intelligence had not increased much, he realized that it had probably changed in quality.

His Intelligence had now evolved, and his talent was now Yellow-grade, the same level as Viktoria’s!

‘On the other hand, I gained a new skill…’ He felt that part of the strangeness he was noticing in his being right now was because of this new Affinity with plant organisms. ‘I wonder how that works?’

He then looked at the plant where he had tied that demon, which was still there, looking in his direction.

As he looked at that plant, Lothur felt his vision getting blurred, getting closer to that plant organism.

Then…

He felt a pleasant sensation of the illumination that the green stones of that area provided to the plants there, feeling the pleasant feeling of being nourished by light.

But he did not stay at it for long and soon frowned as he felt the plant was telling him something that had happened while he was unconscious.

‘Did the demon consume some resources?’ He pondered this as he returned his attention to his body. ‘Well, I expected something like that. After all, I didn’t let it free while collecting things out of inattention…’

Lothur smiled and clenched one of his fists into the water of that green pool, feeling that he could already use his bloodline ability again.

More than 24 hours since its last use had passed. So he was ready to absorb more EVF points any moment now!

[Unknown Monarch Demon]

[Cultivation: level 11]

[STR: 71.9] [CON: 86.6] [DEX: 73.5] [AGI: 77.9] [SOU: ???]

He saw that the demon had not only recovered from all the injuries caused by Life Devourer, but this creature had also gotten stronger and increased in level.

‘Get a little stronger, demon. I’m out of EVF points, and I can’t kill any of those beasts…’ His eyes sharpened before he stepped out of that water and put on a few pieces of dry clothes.

As he did so, Lothur set the demon aside and looked at some beasts watching him from the surrounding area.

He had suddenly started to feel the urge to train his techniques, something he judged to be because of his evolution in terms of talent.

‘Maybe I should do that in the next area?’ He wondered, feeling that some of those beasts were a little ‘shy’ because of his display of power earlier when he arrived there.

Amid his doubts, he decided to use his new skill once more, this time to try and understand this area a little more.

As he did so, he knelt on the ground and felt his consciousness spread out into the surroundings as if he were simultaneously on several plants. .𝓬ℴ𝓶

After a few minutes…

‘Uh? Doesn’t the area ahead have pools like the ones I’ve seen?’

‘Is it an area where some items left by the humanoid sea beasts in that area are mostly?’

‘Harder fights and challenges?’

Lothur sensed what those plants had already noticed from the people coming from that next chamber in that area of the Immortals Well.

With that in mind, he gave up fighting the beasts in the surrounding area and went towards the demon, untying it and then immediately leaving from there as he dragged it away.

The demon held on tightly not to react to this human, believing it could return all its humiliation and pain later.

‘Just you wait, you bastard. I’ll slowly devour you!’ It clenched its fists and stared hatefully at Lothur’s feet. ‘I’ll add all the powers you got into my strength, and then I’ll kill those damned beasts!’

‘I will turn this place upside down and eventually cut off the head of that damned human who chased me!’ It remembered its escape months ago when it and its servant had passed through this area before heading for that previous cave in Finn Mountains.

Lothur knew nothing of what was on this demon’s mind and soon reached the next section, where this time, he was faced with what looked like a blue labyrinth.

But upon arriving there, he came face to face with two beasts he had seen earlier, the yellow crocodile and the lizard from the first chamber, two level 16 beings.

The two were waiting for him in this place since there was no other alternative to enter this chamber besides going through a narrow passage between the tunnels that led there and the beginning of the labyrinth.

These two beings then looked in Lothur’s direction and smiled oddly, already knowing who this human was but still willing to teach him a lesson.

“Human, you narrowly escaped earlier.” The crocodile said, not regretting how it had acted but pleased that Lothur had survived.

It had heard from one of its tribe members in that area that a high-level human had threatened the beasts of that lake because of Lothur. So if it had killed that human, it probably would have pissed off someone it could not.

In that way, it had been quite relieved to fail and was no longer so aggressive, though it still demonstrated wanting to hit Lothur.

“You run well.” The other added, aware that Lothur was there legally, but they had permission to beat up such a human.

Lothur stopped as he saw those two creatures in front of him and smiled as he looked at the demon. ‘Since you are stronger, I will make you suffer and help me with those two…’

‘A living shield is not bad!’

He then said to those creatures. “Very well. I was already looking for a training partner, so I’ll use you two.”

His Elemental Staff appeared in one of his hands while he continued to hold the demon’s neck with the other.

Lothur made a defensive stance and prepared to train his techniques with these creatures.
