I had a good hunt in a couple of days. I killed many, though there are no worthy ones. But I still had fun, killed many, and became much stronger, I saw a trace of fire here, I want to see if he or it is not worthy of a battle with me.
"Name: Henderson

HP 470
MP 11

Protection 86

Speed 30

In the beginning, there was magic here, but after level 4 it changed to primal energy, I can't collect it. The unit recovers in 20 minutes, too long, but still, it's very useful. Saved more than once. Eh, I wish I had a sword. I still haven't been able to find much less a good sword, or even the shadow of a sword. So I have to make do with my fists since they are strong.
I was following the trail of the flame, but a snake came out of the shadow and tried to kill me. It was clever and I noticed it only at the last moment. But thanks to my skin, I survived. But I can't catch this thing, it's too damn clever. But not only that, five more snakes were added to it. They are all black like damn night. The worst part is they know it and actively use it, bastards.
"Race: Shadow Serpent
Skills: Hidden Attack(3lv), Knowledge of weaknesses(2lv), Stealth(5lv), Agility(6lv), Hunting(4lv), Servant(1lv)"
How I hate them, even though their attacks on me are nothing more than a mosquito bite, I began to lose patience. Especially the servant skill is even more infuriating, they are just minions of some bastard. I still spent 4 units of primal power on a shock wave in anger. When they fell I broke 2 skulls. And he tore off the head of the third.
"You got 220 XP"
"You got 200 XP"

What good ones, I have not met such. The one whose head I cut off is still alive, what a tenacious creature. My advantage slowly began to fade, they have already begun to understand my weaknesses and are actively attacking there, assholes. I was about to use the remaining primal energy to kill them when I had a suffocating feeling. It looks like the leader of these rats has come finally come out. I looked up in the direction of some noise, instinctively dodging.
- *Bam!* *Bulb! Bulb! Bulb!*
The ground I was standing on a second ago is now melting as if acid was poured there. True, it is not acid, but something in between lava and fire. Magic! Damn, there's a shitmage. I turned towards the attack and saw something that shocked me. There was a fucking dragon, I appreciated it.
"Name: Augustine
Race: Royal Magic Dragon
Skills: The Chosen One (2lv), The Highest Magical Kinship, Learned the Highest Magic (2lv), Dragon Breath(3lv), Claws(6lv), Scales(5lv), Hunting (2lv), Poison Resistance(1lv), Aura of the Dragon King (2lv), Flight(2lv), Sense of Danger(2lv), Master(1lv)"
Too dangerous, I can't kill him. I started thinking about how to escape, but I remembered something.
- Augustine? Are you that Augustine? Who died in the Civil War?
He looked at me with a slightly shocked look, but said, no, his voice sounded in my head.
"Henderson? What are you doing here? I thought you died in the battle for the city Derwen."
-Dead? No, I survived back then. Just decided to abandon the army and become a mercenary, alas, in the end, I died in an unprofitable battle against the water spirit of Lake Ling.
"Ha-ha-ha-ha, what were you thinking about when you went there? This is an even more stupid death than mine! It would have been better to have died in the Battle on Derwen, oh right, that's how you were remembered."
- Shut up! The prince's slut.
This time, instead of answering, several spells flew in his direction. Most of them were of the fire type, he couldn't dodge and got a serious burn on his chest
- Damn, did you want to kill me?!
"My hand slipped, no offense. And never bring up this topic, it's more expensive for you"
- Fuck you! I'll count your bones for you, understand me. Having said that, I instantly spent all the primal energy. Half for a powerful dash, half for a concentrated punch in his fist, which is aimed at his face.
He couldn't dodge and got hit.
-*Tcht* - there was a dull sound of a fist in the scales. The dragon retreated and said
"You're still the same, hot-tempered, and uncivilized idiot," he said coldly and began to conjure
"A chain of lightning!" he conjured a blue, something similar to glass lightning with a spell. They created a chain that was used as a whip. He swung and quickly attacked, hitting him in the head. I clearly felt a killing intent, he wouldn't let me off. Thankfully I survived, though, my fellow bastard just raised his whip, about to take me off
"Held your tongue in your mouth next time"
But at that moment his chain was about to hit me, a system notification appeared right in front of me. I also felt how my body got paralyzed.
"System: Attention, the players started the battle before the game started. You will be transported to the place of appearance. You'll be moved in 10 seconds"
"Tc, you're lucky. I won't be soft next time."
- Well, I'll meet you later, I'm sure.
"Me too"
And the light embraced my eyes, and when the light was gone, I saw the place from where I came. In that same mountainous area, I think I'll go to the place of the battle, after I heal, I need to know what happened.
…
Light enveloped my eyes, and after a couple of seconds. my vision returned. I saw the forest in which I appeared like an egg. I wonder how would I have acted earlier if I had known all that. My plans have changed. I have to prepare.
I looked at my servants, I lost 4 of them, one still living with head and body separated, it won't live long. I put them on my back and calmly flew towards Mount Tian.
…
Sean has been in a bad mood for more than 20 days, however, not only he but all the people in their country. That was until a week ago when Sean received a message from their master. It said, "I'll be back." He was glad and said it to all the people. They were sure that he would return, no matter how ready they would be to help him in this if he ordered.
Today, a diplomat from the Green Alliance came to them. They greeted him politely and took him to the castle. He was a goblin, but he exuded a majestic aura. Seeing a large empty room there, he asked.
- Is this the room where you keep that Beast?
- Mr. Diplomat, it's not polite to call our master that. -Sean said
- Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know it. I just got information from the person who was supposed to be watching the battle. And you don't need to call me Mr. Diplomat, better call me Diplomat Matthew.
-As you wish, Diplomat Matthew. I will answer all your questions if I know the answer, so ask.
-Thank you, may I ask where he came from?
-He came to us at a time when we needed him. The prophecy came true.
-Hoooo? What prophecy?
-We can talk about it inside, come on in.
-Of course
