"What do you mean?" Asked Kier curiously. After Daniel realized what he had just asked, he explained himself. "I’ve explored the caverns underneath the canyons, I wasn’t really aware of the time.." Kier’s eyebrows arched slightly "Ah, that’s what happened. Your party members said there were two beasts battling.. What happened to them?.. Well, to the other one at least" "The two beasts were grabbing each other when the ground.." Daniel started to tell what had happened the day of their…-

"Hey.. is the tavern still open?.." Daniel asked to the unbelieving crowd of guards. Then, without even waiting for a reply, he walked past them and in the direction of the tavern. The guard on duty turned towards one of the patrols and said "..Notify the head hunter, now!" The patrol turned around and ran towards the head hunter’s tent. Five days had passed since Daniel’s last meal, and he didn’t feel like talking to anyone, at least until he put something in his stomach. He made his way…

Daniel’s body was overflowing with power. The purity of his naturally produced ki was so high, that in comparison, he believed that the ki his body had produced so far, had been an incomplete version of his actual ki. His spirit wasn’t any less impressive. In fact, he felt like his spirit connection with the spiritual plane was much clearer than before, and the spiritual essence drawn from it, was so pure that if Daniel tried to use any of the basic spells he knew, he would consume very little of…

The moment the big boulder was moved aside, Daniel went into hiding. One rock after the other started to roll down the pile, as the figure of the Commnader Steel-back Scorpion crawled out of it. Its body was a complete wreck. The thick tail was broken in three parts and dangled without control, the side of his waist had been smashed, and the scorpion had been forced to rip that part of his body altogether, along with the leg connected to it, in order to free itself. Huge chunks of white meat dripped…

For the following ten hours, Daniel and the rest of his party hunted down every single one of these half meter long scorpions the very moment they left their nests. The behaviour of Steel-back Scorpions was unusual when compared to normal scorpions. In fact, they weren’t solitary hunters. They were eusocial instead, and formed colonies under a single higher ranking scorpion king. The scorpion king was a variation of the more common Steel-back Scorpion, and was called Diamond-back Scorpion. The…

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Yala shouted before wispering to herself in disbelief ".. y-you were just at the early Moderate Spiritual Connection.." A series of confused reactions appeared on the faces of everyone present. Daniel’s face was the most surprised as he jumped from the scare. "W-what.. what’s wrong with you!?" He said through gritted teeth. Yala calmed down immediately and responded. "N-nothing.. sorry.." Yala’s shock was understandable. The moment Daniel had touched her face with his…

"You know how it will end.. That’s why your hand is on the hilt of your sword.." After these last few words were spoken, a deafening silence filled the place. Daniel stood just three meters behind the escort, while Garth, was still facing the fire. His hand was slowly moving over the set of throwing spears that he had left on the ground. A faint moonlight joined the campfire into a dance of weak lights. The only noise that broke the absolute silence was the constant howling of the wind.…

Amongst knees to the chest and punches to his back, Daniel managed to take the mage out of the forest. At that point, a message appeared inside Daniel’s mind ----- *Just a Wandering Hero* First objective completed. Reward: 1250 Karma Points ----- "Am I even a hero at this point?.. I’m getting paid after all.." Daniel thought while an odd smile grew in his face. After leaving the forest, Daniel encountered the rest of his hunting party. "What is going on? Where are the…

"Sir, thank you for being here." Said the lean man with the large nose. According to the Huntsmen Guild’s regulations, in order to form a hunting party, the presence of an escort was required. That role was usually taken by a member of the Mercenary Union, or at times, by a licensed member of the army or city guard. The escort were required to have reached the cultivation rank set by the Huntsmen Guild, which was the peak of the corresponding rank of the strongest known monsters of the area. For…
