True vision wasn’t really a sight, it was more a feeling that something is there and how much of a threat it is.
I don’t even have to be looking at it, I know where everything is, what everything is doing, whether I like it or not.
It’s kinda scary, but I think of it like sensing power levels.
Also, the Hippo is terrifyingly strong, if the S-Rank adventurers power were hills the hippos is Mount Everest.
I’m glad it’s on my side.
“Did you give up?”
“No, I got it.”
“You got it?”
“True Vision, the title showed up.”
“...”
“You impressed?”
“What boost did you get from your name?”
“I don’t remember?”
“Ask analyze.”
So I did.
"Name increases learning rate by 20%"
“It’s Learning Rate by 20%.”
“Of course it is.”
“Is that good?”
“First of all, you get a boost to all EXP possible, basically, one hundred EXP for a normal monster is one hundred and twenty EXP for you, next you get an intelligence boost and understand things faster.”
“Is that random thing I get?”
“No, Suvunkilbub choose it for you, when were you named?”
“Less than a month after I was born.”
“That means you’ve gotten that boost since you were a child, that’s smart of Suvunkilbub, how old are you?”
And then we go through the same surprised schtick that I’m sure you’re all tired of.
“You are lucky, you are basically set for life, as long as you don’t anger anybody you should be good.”
“It’s time, have you found the money.”
It was Unix, it was mid-evening when I was caged, now it’s about an hour till midnight, time flies.
(“Hold on, one second.”)
True vision immediately sensed where the nearest money was, it was in another smaller secret room on the opposite side of where this room was.
(“I found it, but it’s in a secret room, and the boss guy is walking back towards my cage.”)
She was flying above me, yes flying, she must have aerial movement as a starter skill.
“What is that thing, LVL 700?!?!?!”
(“Don’t worry, they’re friendly.”)
“Are you sure?”
(“Definitely, they taught me true vision.”)
“True Vision, that’s something you should learn about at LVL 100 and have to train for at least half a day, when did you start?”
(“Almost as soon as I got here.”)
“That’s about one-fifth of the day, a little less, that’s just impossible.”
(“Well it’s possible, now let’s go steal the treasure while making as much noise as we can.”)
“You mean as you can, I’m a support magician.”
(“Okay, can you just make sure no fire makes it to this room?”)
“You want to protect the monsters?”
I nod.
“Well it was just a false alarm, though you do know if it did go on a rampage we would have all- what are you doing here?”

The boss caught eye of Unix.
Just then I got an increase of strength, it didn’t seem like a big boost, but I’m always holding back so I can’t tell.
There are only around fifty enemies in this base, I can tell because of True Vision, but I’m about to see because of the War Demon Chocobo Buff.
I open the cage using telekinesis.
“So you are against us, I guess you wanted to steal your bird back and get the dragons, too bad, I’m friends with one of the people holding them, I can easily get them back, in fact, that was the plan.”
Why do all villains have a monologue?
“It’s time for us to fight, or do you need your bird to do it? I know I could beat the bird, but you seem pretty weak, the flight will be annoying though.”
“Um boss(Voicecrack on the o of boss.)”
“What is it, speak up?”
“Aquen was lying.”
“What, when?”
“When he said you could take the Bird, he was lying, I know because of my starter skill.”
“Then-”
I do a flying kick into his gut.
“Urmph!”
“Boss!”
The boss just instantly dies because I shattered his ribs.
“Nooo, boss!”
“Ahhh.”
Two of them charged me, four others ran away, and six just stood still.
One of them that charged me, “You’ll pay for that!”
I use a pepper breath that puts him and a guy behind him into cinders.
“Ahhh ahhh ahhhhhh!”
The rest of them ran away.
I’ve done some pretty gruesome stuff to monsters, and thought no mind of it, except for a couple of them like a baby giraffe, and I thought killing humans would be different, but for terrible people like these guys, imprisoning animals, using lives to make money, it felt no different.
I move on and forget.
Unix throws me my storage bag and I get on my way.
Once I get to the wall I hit the spot that makes the door move and open it.
In the middle was a crate full of so much zoulx, cinds, and ewips that I can’t count them with true vision, but I’m sure it’s not five hundred, otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to keep it.
In the back was an object that looked like a grail, it was full gold and embroidered with green jewels.
(“There is a grail here as well, should I take it.”)
“Yes!”
She had to yell because she was far away, standing guard for the animals.
I scoop everything up and make my way towards the exit.
Then something unprecedented happens.
I feel it first, something moving at high speeds, something stronger than the hippo.
(“Unix watch out, something big’s coming.”)
“What?”
Boom!
“Jhwrid, I’ve come for you, you are needed!”
“First please send all of these monsters in cages to their homeland.”
“Trivially easy.”
I run back to the cages as fast as I can on the spot.
The cages were still there, the animals were not, except the hippo.
What I see may surprise you.
A giant hippo head, as big as the LVL 700 hippo, coming out of the ground.
Not like destroyed the ground and came through that, no it was coming out of what looks like a portal, I still sense it’s body though, it was almost as big as the castle in Voyaltry.
“Oh what a weird specimen, it’s aura is overflowing its body, and I can sense that it was chosen by Suvunkilbub.”
“I will now go with you, my liege.”
“Wait, we have plenty of time, I want to see Suvunkilbub’s chosen some more, hmm, hide status, that’s weird, but tell me, how did Suvunkilbub hide you, she must have pulled a lot of strings for this, which would have been plenty bothersome for her, not being able to talk.”
Suddenly I noticed another power coming towards me, but it seemed more familiar.
A beam of light shot down in front of me.
Suvunkilbub flew down the hole made by the laser beam and I suddenly noticed how outclassed I am on this playing field.
Two super monsters and one sudo super monster, and then there’s me.
“What is it Suvunkilbub, did you really think I would lay a tusk on your chosen, we aren’t enemies.”
I turn on mind acceleration, “You should go, the humans of this town will probably investigate the hole I made, and with the number of men with bad intentions here I don’t think you want to be associated with them.”
“You sure, I could try to translate for you so you don’t have to fight.”
“We won’t fight, I just want him to keep you a secret, you aren’t strong enough yet.”
“Okay, I’ll tell him that.”
Oh shoot, what’s the big hippo’s name, I completely forgot it, I know the small hippo said his name but I’m bad at it.
“What’s the big guy's name?”
“It’s Goustough, were you about to try to save yourself without knowing your enemies' name.”
“Yes, though I’m generally bad with names.”
“Just don’t forget my name.”
“Okay, Suvunkilbub.”
“Good.”
I go out of mind acceleration, “Goustough, Suvunkilbub would like you to keep me a secret.”
“Oh, or what.”
I go back into mind acceleration, “Or else I’ll laser him.”
Go out, “Or else she’ll laser you.”
“Interesting, if she can hit me that is.”
Go in, “He wants to die, I haven’t killed anyone strong in awhile, the leaderboard might change, not that I care about that.”
Go out, “She says you want to die and she hasn’t killed anyone strong in a while and that the leaderboard might change.”
“I’m only joking Suvunkilbub, though it looks like you’ve found a nice translator, I’ll keep him a secret, you owe me one though, now ta ta.”
The hippos left.
Go in, “He has better keep his promise, now anything you would like to say about yourself, getting the attention of a powerful divine beast like him.?”
“I got true vision.”
“Excuse me?!”
