Blake felt a chill run down his spine as he realized that his plan may have been a bit extreme but it was too late to regret. He swiftly turned around and flew into the forest behind him. He also tried to activate [Loot] but since he already took the mist he couldn't.

The beasts that were sleeping peacefully in the forest woke up because of the roar and they were running around haphazardly. Blake quickly picked a direction to fly in and rushed off. He knew that whoever such a furious, bloodthirsty beast meets, that person will not have a good end.

As luck would have it, after a few minutes of running he noticed a huge feline beast with a brand on its head running about furiously while wrecking havoc everywhere it went. Blake was really afraid that it would notice him so he flew very low, hoping it would be effective while holding his breath.

Fortunately for him, the beast had no idea what happened to the mist so after venting its frustration it went away to look for the mist. As it was leaving, it didn't forget to roar angrily one more time. Blake let out the breath he was holding and slumped on the ground.

'Damn, this world is so tiring...' Thought Blake as he lied there for over an hour. Ever since he came to this world it has been about moving around looking for treasures. He was already getting tired of all that. Well, not the treasures but the danger. He knew that he had to work hard if he wishes to reach the top but he felt that he had the right to take a break.

Just as he was resting, he felt his lifeblood being sucked into one place along with the Ghastly Azure Mist and a strange small crystal appeared in his body. Blake was confused for a second before he heard a ding in his head and a set of information appeared in his mind.

After taking a quick glance at the information his face turned sour and he thought to himself, 'So this is how we're gonna play huh? well bring it on!'
