System: Hunter Villain
Episode 15: Starfall Core Stone

"Demon Eye."

Yue Bing activated her skill because the room she was in was very dark and there was nothing to see but the darkness that was clutching her eyes.

"Graa..." The sound of a goblin sounded a few meters in front of Yue Bing.

Stepping forward slowly, Yue Bing found a spacious room and there was the illumination from the torch attached to the wall. Seeing the goblin walking around here and there, Yue Bing pressed her body against the wall to make it invisible.

Hiding, Yue Bing peeked at what the goblin was doing. Putting the stone in the middle, they collected the bright blue colored stone that they mined on the cave wall.

"System, what's that rock?"

[Starfall core stone.]

"Whatchu mean? Isn't the Starfall core stone pale blue? I've never seen a new Starfall core as bright blue as that." Clearly Yue Bing from her experience got the Starfall core stone that she had obtained in the past.

[The Starfall core stone is bright blue, its purity is higher than pale blue. The higher the purity, the harder it is to find.]

What the system said was true, the higher the purity level, the stone itself would be very difficult to find. But Yue Bing found it just like that and it was in front of her eyes.

"It's time for my skill to level up and get a new skill." Said Yue Bing while pulling out her sword and preparing to attack.

Yue Bing then ran over and slashed the head of the goblin closest to her and threw the black sword at the one goblin holding the stick.

He had thought that if it was a mage goblin, if Yue Bing did not kill him first, he would probably make it a hassle while fighting other goblins.

"Ice Javelin's."

After throwing his sword, Yue Bing instantly chalked up the skill she had and darted piercing four of the ten remaining goblins.

He ran and swung his sword from the bottom up. At the end of his sword slash, he changed his grip and became a chain slash like his duel with Bae Junyi.

Clearing the blood from the goblin attached to his sword, he flicked it to the ground and said, "Alright, there are three goblins left."

Approaching the three goblins, Yue Bing whipped out the black sword she had just thrown at the goblin mage in front of her. Combining his demonic eyes and black sword, he tried a new technique that he thought of.

"Mind Slash."

An invisible slash shot towards the three goblins and left him instantly killed. There was not a physical slash on their bodies, but it was attacking their minds and souls.

"Finally done." Sighing, Yue Bing sheathed her sword again into its sheath.

[Successfully create a new skill.]

[Skill "Mind Slash" was acquired and added successfully.]

[Display Host status window information.]

"Okay, maybe it's time I asked..." Sighing Yue Bing continued, "...Why am I here written half demon?"

"That makes me happy because I'm going to be strong, but..."

[Host could be the new demon king.]

"Stop. I won't be the demon king!" Reject Yue Bing raw.

After that chatter, Yue Bing approached the small mountain of treasures that were glowing bluish. He took one stone and looked at it carefully.

[Do the hosts want to consume Starfall's core stones?] [Y/N]

"What other games are you playing this time?" Yue Bing asked looking at the display of the system differently than usual as she held the Starfall core stone.

[System wants to help host to process core stones into host power.]

Just believe it with the system, Yue Bing pressed [Y] and all the Starfall core stones that were mounting in front of her suddenly vanished from her sight.

"Hey. It's different from what you said!" Eluh Yue Bing on the system took all the Starfall core stones without any residue.

[System tells host if system will process Starfall core stone. And everything in front of the host earlier was none other than the Starfall core stone.]

Feeling deceived, Yue Bing regretted believing in that system. He would no longer believe in any temptation the system was trying to trick him again.

[System version 2.0 is being downloaded.]

[Download time : ...]

[2 hours until completion of download time.]

"Version 2.0? Hey, stop..."

[System disabled during download.]

Not yet finished the sentence, the system gives a notification if the system will be disabled when the download process version 2.0 runs.

Yue Bing herself was confused, she did not choose to upgrade the system to version 2.0, but why did the system itself take the initiative to upgrade itself?

That question was no longer thought of by Yue Bing as she had to complete her mission because the deadline of the main mission was unknown when the system was off.

Sighing, he ran slowly towards the other door from where he had entered the room. Along that passageway, many torches were affixed to street lighting, but it could be used by hunters as a sign for the road to the boss.

****

Ming Yae, who had entered the other door that opened into the hidden boss room, was still walking down the dark hallway.

"With the blessing of the Goddess of light, brighten this dark side of the world with your light, Light Ball."

A glowing orb formed in Ming Yae's hand after she cast the spell she learned in the book. The ball floated upwards and illuminated the dark path that passed by.

Without muttering a single bit, he continued walking up to a light-lit space in front of him. Ming Yae was wary if it was a trap.

He turned off the ball of light and stepped slowly towards that light. Peering a little, he saw many goblins lying on the lifeless ground.

Coming out of his hiding slowly, he approached the goblins and muttered, "Who did all this?" By covering his mouth and nose because the smell of goblin carcasses does not taste good to kiss.

Ming Yae noticed some incisions on the goblin wounds, it made him speculate if sharp objects such as swords and spears could injure them.

With such evidence, Ming Yae thought it was an act from Yue Bing, as only Yue Bing had disappeared from the party and she also carried two swords on her back.

"This must be Brother Ren!" He said as he walked towards the same door that Yue Bing passed by a few minutes ago.
