Battle of Ascension

The next day, Randy woke up as usual at 5 am. Afterward, he immediately rushed toward the lake where he used to train.

There Zhen Yi already waiting for him. His training still not much in the progress, but he didn't give up yet. He knew that he had many responsibilities. Though he kept getting beaten black and blue, it didn't waver the determination in his heart to become strong.

In the break of the training, Zhen Yi gave him a lunchbox. Mika still made him breakfast and lunch for him every day.

They had a breakfast before continued the training. At 8 am the training was finished, and they were hunting the Demonic Rabbit. Yes, the Demonic Rabbit reappeared again. He came to know about this was on his first day he stayed in the ruined city.

On the way to the lake, he noticed that many Demonic Rabbits wandering on the outskirt Jakarta territory. The emergence Demonic Rabbit was a surprise for him. He thought the Demonic Rabbit had been extinct.

Besides surprises, Randy also felt relieved. His mother kept asking him to hunt the Demonic Rabbit, he didn't dare to say to his mother that had been extinct because of him and he sold the carcasses to the East Restaurant. So he just delayed his mother by said he didn't hunt in the place where Demonic Rabbit resided.

But the surprises given by the Demonic Rabbit was not only the reappearance after about more than a week extinct, it was its level. Now, the Demonic Rabbit's level was level 4. Last time he hunted the Demonic Rabbit, its level was level 2. But after the emergence, the level increased by2 levels.

He asked Shana about this, but her answer was "Due to the level restriction I cannot tell you about this, you should raise my level first,"

He didn't ask further after heard her answer. Nah actually, he didn't care too, why the level of the Demonic Rabbit increased instead it was better for him. The Exp gained by killing the level 4 Demonic Rabbit was higher than the level 2. He also asked his wife to help him to hunt the Demonic Rabbit.

So after the training, they will hunt the Demonic Rabbit. After one hour of hunting the Demonic Rabbit, they returned to the lake. Randy gave his Demonic Rabbit carcasses to his wife before they were parted up. Zhen Yi went to the south of the Jakarta while he went to the ruined city first before he headed toward the new hunting place.

He headed back toward the ruined city because he didn't know the location the new hunting. His wife said the place was about 5 km to the south of the ruined city. So he headed back first to the ruined city before going to go to the new hunting ground.

Actually, he was curious what a monster that could help him in the training. He walked slowly to the south while looking at the map of the Battle System.

The map was still dark, indicated that he still not yet explored to here yet. In his map, there were four territories, Jakarta territory, Depok territory, Bogor territory, and Tangerang territory.

Now, he was in the Tangerang territory. On the Tangerang territory, the only visible was the ruined city the rest was still dark. While Depok and Bogor territory was only one line that visible on the map. It was a path to the place where he found the Ascension chest. The only map that clear was only Jakarta territory.

On the way, he didn't find any monster or beast. The scenery was only trees with lush green about 5 to 9 meters tall.

It's already 30 minutes he walking yet he still didn't manage to find any monster or beast. The atmosphere was quiet, he could only hear the sound of leaf that fluttering by breeze.

But he felt something amiss here. He felt being watched from his back when he turned his head back, there was no one. There was no monster or beast on his back.

He slowed down his pace in walking while he kept looking to the left and right. He really felt uncomfortable here.

Whoosshhh

There was a sound of something moving in his back. He turned his head and saw a red monster on the air while raising its weapon toward him.

He immediately pulled out his sword, aimed at the red monster on the air. His sword smoothly cut the red monster into two parts. The red monster fell in the front of him with its lower body and upper body got separated.

Just when he wanted to check what the red monster looked like, his back got hit.

Clang Clang

The sound of metal collided and Randy rolled to the front after the attack hit his armor back. He quickly stood up from the ground. He saw two red monsters with steel dagger on its hand. Luckily the monster didn't aim at the neck or part of his body that didn't get covered by armor.

He finally managed to see the appearance of the red monster. It had about 1 meter tall, all of its skin was red from the tiptoes to the head. The red monster ears were big and wide, from the mouth he could see two white fangs, its nose was big and almost looked like a horn, and they wore beast skin to cover their lower and upper body. Afterward, He quickly used the [Basic Detection] skill.

--------------------------------------

[Red Goblin]

Grade: Uncommon Monster

Level: 20

--------------------------------------

The information about the red monsters appeared on his eyes. The name monster was Red Goblin, the same grade as the Demon Kolor Ijo but the level was higher. The Red Goblin's level was level 20 while the Demon Kolor Ijo was level 14.

But he also felt something strange here. When the two Red Goblin hit his back, the pain he felt was lesser than the attack by Demon Kolor Ijo. Even though the level Red Goblin's level was 6 levels higher than the Demon Kolor Ijo yet the attack of Red Goblin was weaker than Demon Kolor Ijo. He was puzzled here.

Just when he wanted to ask Shana about this, he saw the two red monsters bringing the Red Goblin corpses that getting a cut into two by him. They jumped to the tree from the ground while holding the corpses.

The two Red Goblins were jumped from the tree to another tree until they were disappeared from his sight.

He didn't think that the two Red Goblins prefer brought their kin corpses back than killing him. He thought the two Red Goblins would be angry and would be pounced toward him after their comrade was killed by him.

"It's really hard to understand monster's mindset," Randy muttered.

Then he looked at the map. The distance here from the ruined city was almost 5 km. This meant his wife suggested him to hunt the Red Goblin?

He really didn't understand what in his wife's mind. Even though the Red Goblin level was 6 levels higher than Demon Kolor Ijo but the strength of Red Goblin was weaker than the Demon Kolor Ijo.

Also, it was hard to hunt the Red Goblin. It attacked him from the tree while he was on the ground. Also, its movement on the tree was agile and nimble. He came to know about this when he saw the two Red Goblin which bringing the corpse.

If he wanted to climb up to the tree, the Red Goblin must be jumped to another tree, ran from him. The only way was waiting for the Red Goblin attack him. It was like the Red Goblin hunting him rather than him hunting the Red Goblin.
