'That's the 8th one. For the last one, its hiding in the corner...'

Rueben took out Adam and made a ricochet shot which hit the beast hiding in the corner, during this, he also used his whip to wrap around it and dragged it towards him to which he immediately killed by ripping its spine off its body, instantly killing it.

He then looked at his blood soaked clothes and let out a sigh before burning the corpses and continued.

Softly, he heard music coming from the end of the darkness, his eye narrowed and he prepared himself. When he took one step, the floor beneath him suddenly fell, he quickly grabbed the floor and dangled there as he looked down at the endless abyss below him threatening to eat him up.

His eyes narrowed when he heard cries of a child there as well as shrieks of beasts. He climbed up, he couldn't risk going down there just for a child who he doesn't even know if it was a human or a beast. There was a monster that could mimic the voices of anyone they ate, and a voice of a crying child from below the sewers with beasts everywhere growling?

How did the child not die from all those beasts that could jump high and traverse through any terrain with ease, no, the problem here is that why is a cry of a child there in the first place? Quite suspicious.

Rueben took off the flashwork and threw it in the hole before seeing it slowly getting eat up by the darkness as it continued to fall deeper and deeper.

He let out a sigh and heard a small thud coming from the hole. "A few hundred meters deep, if i fell down then i'll die. Even if i didn't die..." He then heard the cries of the monster and beasts as well as the cry of the child yet distorted and twisted into a terrifying shrill shriek. "I would get attacked by the beasts there..."

Just as he fixed his collar before continuing to investigate, a tentacle rushed towards him and somehow managed to wrap itself on his feet before dragging him down to which he instinctively responded with taking out Adam and shooting at the tentacle.

The tentacle broke into two but it regenerated in insane speed and 3 more tentacles appeared, aiming to drag him down to the hole. Rueben clicked his tongue and braced himself for impact as he felt the three tentacles wrap themselves around his feet and dragged him.

He carefully moved to not hit the wall of the hole as it would only do him harm than good, he took out an Ichor Siphon and readied to use it once he got down. He placed the Siphon into his right thigh of his right leg where two belts just a few 8 inches apart from each other could be seen.

This was where the Blood Organ could be found. Once you inject in some God's Blood into the organ, it would activate its healing properties and... It would heal you right up. All wounds, illness, diseases, except for the Pale Monster Disease.

Most doesn't know why the God's Blood that could fix anything could not fix the infected people. But they didn't dare try to find out the truth, because ignorance is sometimes a bliss. If you don't want to get hurt, then forget about everything, don't worry about anything, just go with the flow and you'll live a peaceful and be free.

Free of all sufferings, of all things that life can throw at you.

Rueben gave himself a depressing smile, as he looked at the ground, after he crashed. Moist, wet, filled with blood everywhere. The Siphon was already doing its work as it healed the broken bones and muscles on his body.

He slowly stood up with the help of his Caneswordwhipumbrella and looked infront of him, it was dark but he could see the outline of the beasts that were already charging towards him, as well as the monster that dragged him down. "Well, life isn't easy as always. All i got to do is sit back and enjoy it but noooo...." He made his cane into whip mode and propelled himself up with a sturdy root growing on the roof of the dungeon he was in and took out Eve, a beautiful pistol that had one simple use.

To break the bones of anything it hits.

Bang!

"I had to do this hunting work! Dear mom, i don't think i can give you a grandchild!!"

He used his whip to wrap around one of the beasts and pulled it in, tearing off its head apart while shooting Eve towards the other, pulverized the entire head of the beast.

He could only use Eve once before reloading, this whole sequence takes 5 seconds to do before he could shoot again. Putting his hand behind him, he landed on the ground before dashing forward while aiming at the beast's head, more precisely, his neck.

He made a spin to dodge the incoming attack and landed on the beast's arms before slicing its head off. He jumped down and used the beast's corpse to shield himself from the attack that the beast with tentacles were using.

For what these beasts look like, we got to talk about the difference between beasts and monsters.

Beasts and monsters are essentially the same yet different in both their capability and outside appearance. Beasts mostly had an animal fused with a human body, like a werewolf but more deformed and slimy, these beasts are easier to hunt than monsters when they are weak but over time, these beasts will mutate and evolve into a stronger and stronger beasts that just resembles a small outlook of its former form.

The strongest beast that was killed was by The Lady, Marivic Desmond. It looked a lot like a dear with its antlers having grown flesh like limbs, its body is a combination of a dear and a human's with fur and bipedal like a human. It stood at 11 meters tall and was large enough to destroy a small house with its many arms like hooves. It had 9 arms, the other 8 used for either attacking or moving and the last one, which was located at the chest, helped it balance its large body. The Lady killed it with just her two scimitar and an explosive rifle alone. The beast was proven to not contain the disease whatsoever and was eaten by the Hunter's that came to Hunt with The Lady.

The other was the monsters. These creatures don't resemble humans, animals, insects, fish anything whatsoever. They have countless slimy tentacles growing from their body as limbs, their bodies were either plump or skinny depending on how it attacks and defends, it can use supernatural powers that could control the earth, shoot fireballs and even breathe freezing ice.

Rueben dodged and smacked the beast that dragged him down with his cane mode before shooting it with Eve in the head. He fixed the creases in his clothes before looking around with the flashwork device.

Monsters were different from beasts as they have some semblance of intelligence and could understand what the Hunter's were planning and could communicate with them. Though, the First Hunter, Klein Hielms, would sometimes comment about these creatures about how they feel and act like cult members of a god. Though these were just occasional comments before everyone around the First Hunter gets drunk in booze.

Rueben dusted himself off before thinking of a way to get out, he thought of the hole but he found out that he couldn't find it anywhere, either one of the beasts were monsters in disguise or it was hidden very well that even he, a 34 year old with 20 years of experience of being a Hunter couldn't find a single hole in the ceiling.

He pinched his forehead tighter and let out a deep sigh. Inside this room were only beasts(possibly a monster in disguise but no evidence because he burned their bodies), treasure chests filled with a white gaseous substance that he could physically touch as well as a few books and writings on the walls.
