Still Loved Even In The New World
CHAPTER 60: The Weird Child

even though I've come out of the soul aisle, but this place also has no sense of time.here there is only night without coming day.My goal to keep going is to find a player city. once in the game, there was a ghost town specifically for players, it could be called a safe zone in this world. but I am also less sure about the existence of ghost town, I came to ghost town while in the game, but does this world have the same thing as in the game?!.

although not sure, but that's the only purpose that exists. I don't know where to go if it turns out the world is very different from when in Alterion. maybe I could just continue exploring without knowing where and how long.especially without the system map, I could only walk randomly in a certain direction.

I kept going while spreading my mental energy into the surroundings very subtly and carefully as a substitute for the system map. in the Regalia Kingdom I have not seen a creature that reached Tier two, but according to what I knew while in Alterion, in this world there are far more powerful beings. it did not even close the possibility if there were Tier five or Tier six creatures.

even though I used all my strength, I who was only a Tier four Ancestor, I would not be able to resist such an existence.even if I could run, it was a huge advantage.

my feet continued to step on the barren and rocky ground, until I saw a forest under a very steep cliff.even though it was a forest, but what I saw was not a lush green scene, it was a lush green landscape, but it was a forest with large trees with dead branches that pointed like devil's claws. The forest was split by a large river red because of the reflection of moonlight.

a faint red mist covered the forest floor that had many poisonous herbs.The atmosphere of the dead forest and the background of the bloody moon, this scene inexplicably reminded me of a horror movie. I looked up at the red sky and slowly closed my eyes, smelling a bloody scent in the air.

blood?, why is there a bloody scent all of a sudden?. I immediately opened my eyes and noticed the surroundings.This place is still so quiet and calm, but why is there a bloody scent spreading in the air?!. I did not dare to spread my mental strength again.I instantly stopped its spread and slowly walked towards the bloody scent in the air.

"AGHhhh... t, please....!!"

"quick!!, run..!!"

GRAOOOO.....

"t, no. ahhh.."

I walked very far just to follow the bloody scent that was washed in the air along with the wind.either because of my status or because I was used to the bloody scent in Alterion, either, I became very sensitive to the scent of blood.The closer I got to the bloody scent, I started to hear the sound of a scream and the roar of a monster.

I slowly approached the origin of the sound.According to a rocky cliff, I saw a flock of people slaughtered by monsters.they ran and shouted in panic, but no matter how hard those people tried, they still suffered one massacre at a time quickly until the last person, he said, which a muscular bald man in was torn by the monster until the entire organ and blood splashed in all directions.The humans here had no definite difference with ordinary humans. it's just that they have a horn protruding from the middle of their forehead.When they die, there will be a shadow that appears and disappears in thin air.because this is the place where the soul resides, the soul, so I think their souls will be seen when they die in this world, because there is no place to go for those souls.

looking at the various corpses with tragic conditions, I felt absolutely nothing but rather disgust.I also did not have the slightest feeling of sympathy towards the dead, especially that bald man. I saw him throw a little girl towards the monster so that he could escape, so I didn't have enough heart to pity the trash like him.well, but if they were still alive, then, I might be willing to lend a hand to help, but they are dead. There is no point in me fighting the monster aimlessly.revenge?, what does that have to do with me. I don't even know those people.I'm not like a stupid, naive hero.I don't want to fight a monster aimlessly just for the sake of a corpse I don't know.

as I tried to turn around, I saw the monster heading towards the corner of the rock cliff.I saw a female corpse lying face down there with its back part already torn by the monster's sharp claws. is that monster going to start eating?. No, wait...!

although it was faint, I could see that the person was still moving.without a second thought, I immediately jumped up and launched a mental energy spear attack towards the monster.It was like being aware of my attack, as if I was not aware of it, the monster immediately flew into the air.I jumped towards the corpse and protected it behind me. I would not attack if I did not have the certainty to win the fight.

GRAO...!!

the monster let out a loud scream in the air.he landed about ten meters away from me and bared his fangs.The monster had a three-meter-high human-like body with a stocky body, it was just that both of his hands had been replaced by a pair of bat wings.on landing, the wings were folded like wyvern wings and changed to resemble long arms with sharp claws. his head was similar to the combination of a human and a bat with a wide mouth full of fangs.His skin was greenish, which seemed to contrast with the surrounding environment. his body was smeared with blood from the massacre victim he had just committed.

«Terror Bat» monster Tier two that has three fighting skills.This monster is classified as difficult to kill by players with the same Tier, in addition to its ability to fly, this monster is classified as difficult to kill, this monster also has an astounding agility.terror bat is a unique monster in this world, this is because these monsters are soul-based.even living things in this world are soul-based. although they had blood and flesh, but it was only limited in this world, if they were to leave this world, they would only be a disembodied soul.

this is the first skill possessed by terror bat, «Soul Terror » skill can cause mental attacks and make the affected person experience dizziness for a moment, so he stopped all his actions. this skill was extremely advantageous for Terror bat, it was because he had speed and agility, so he could execute instant kill attacks against his opponent.

since the attack had no effect on me, I immediately jumped up and slashed the monster's left wing. The splash of blood stained the dark ground.

GRAOOO...

the monster's wrenching roar resounded in the middle of this forest.After that slash, I won't give the monster a chance to shut its mouth. I immediately swung the sword and slashed its neck apart from its body.The blood spurted like a fountain and hit my body.

humph... was finally finished as well.although the monster was weak, but using mental strength to attack was exhausting.but not without advantage, the more often we used mental strength, the more, then it will also increase our control over it. This is one of the privileges of this world, in this world the players can train their soul abilities and strengthen them.

I approached the monster's corpse and stabbed into its belly.Slowly, I tore off the stomach until blood and other fluids I didn't recognize spilled from there. After a deep enough tear, I ripped it apart, I crouched down and rummaged through his entrails.I found a hard object from inside and pulled it out.

in my hand, in addition to the blood and strangely smelly liquid, there was also a dagger with an overall length of 13 inches. The dagger had a blackish-brown sheath with silver ornaments. this was a rare drop item.although this soul weapon was only an Epic class item level 160, but drop items that were weapons were extremely rare in this world.

in this world could not use any other item other than soul items.it was because players who entered this world were souls, they would leave their bodies on the main continent.by therefore, they would, all equipment stored or used will remain in the main body, except soul items.in addition to soul items, which can be used in this place are Legendary items or Divine items. those two item classes had surpassed space, so it was fine to use them in this place.

besides not being able to use ordinary weapons, I also cannot use magic attacks here, I can only use mental attacks.that is the advantage of monsters in this world, when I cannot use magic, I can only use magic, they could easily use it. It was referred to as a world boundary, the world boundary would benefit the original creatures and harm the survivors.

without cleansing myself, I walked up to the woman's body. After flipping her body, I saw the woman smiling towards me with the corner of her mouth that had traces of blood.I put the woman on my lap, I saw her smiling at me, next to the woman was a little girl who was unconscious.it seems that this woman protected her child from the claws of the monster.really, the kindness of a mother who sacrificed her life to protect her child. I have great respect for people like that...

"t, thank you. t, please take care of my son.."

he said weakly to me, before he said more, he coughed along with the blood spewed out...

I put down the corpse and glanced at the unconscious little boy.The boy was about three years old with short black hair and pointed ears, his skin was also brownish. he had one horn in the middle of his forehead.However, when I noticed it, on his right face and on his horns were golden-red runes.This was the first time I saw something like this, I saw something like this, I've never even heard of it.

I touched the rune and the boy's face frowned, slowly he opened his eyes in a daze then immediately woke up in fear....
