The heavy knights skill tree is more about eating the hits and bulldozing your enemy than anything. And once I master Glutton then the smoldering hunger skill tree will be unlocked.

A hot and humid breath with the stench of rotten meat came from behind my head.

I then can use smoldering hunger as leverage to get the ravenous madness skill tree. The ravenous madness skill tree completely focuses on killing and it's actually quite strong. Only it's massive draw backs keep it on the ground.

I flicked her on the forehead and with a "ueh" she backed off whilst grabbing her forehead.

Of course my Inheritance will protect me from the ravenous and smoldering status effects. The defensive skills from heavy knight on top of the offensive ones from ravenous combined with smoldering's recovery with my classes strength tree I'll be unstoppable.

And that's not including resonance.

"Just one, can I have just one bite of you?"

"You're a naga, you can swallow me whole."

"...so can I?"

I flicked her on the forehead.

----------------------------------------

"Why are you following me?"

"Because I'm hungry!"

"Then go eat someone else. I probably taste like mud and rocks or something."

"But there's no one around, I'll starve before I find someone!"

"Pretty sure that bulge in your stomach means you'll be fine."

"That... I'm pregnant!"

"You suck at lying you know that?"

It violently fought against her stomach, desperately clinging to whatever hope is left. But there's no chance of escaping after you were swallowed by the snake.

"I'm not sure if I should be disgusted or impressed that you managed to somehow swallow a living person."

I didn't really have a destination, I was just walking around to get a grip on the surrounding area. Having a big threat like a plague father or evolved wolf pact would certainly be a problem since the average 30 year old guy would be around level 6 if he didn't put much effort into his body.

Though I did notice that I look a lot younger, maybe my physical experti had something to do with it.

I flicked her on the forehead.

"I didn't even do anything!"

"You were staring at me drooling."

Then, a blood curdling scream could be heard, piercing through the air like a siren.

"There, more people, now leave me alone."

----------------------------------------

Well this is something.

I wasn't really expecting anything so this was certainly a surprise.

Two piles of human bones were laying infront of me. Then again, another blood curdling scream.

Tsk

A wendigo's hunting grounds.

Nagas and wendigos are polar opposites. Nagas can be easily outrun but they make everything else up with crushing strength. Whilst I'm sure that the average Joe could overpower a wendigo their speed is absolutely phenomenal.

Yeah, this is a problem.

You can walk around a naga and the scary part about them is that they always know where their prey is. But with the checkpoints that threat is diminished.

However, a wendigo won't just attack you the moment it notices you. No, they're hunters, they will wait until you are so deep in the forest that no one will believe you were ever there.

I stepped past the bone piles, entering the hunting grounds.

----------------------------------------

I don't think you understand what kind of man he actually is. He has a different perception of danger than you and me.

...

You don't understand. He isn't brave, he's fearless. Big difference.

...

In order to be brave you need to be afraid. He isn't afraid of big teeth or sharp claws. Fuck, I doubt he ever was afraid.

...

You still don't get it. He's dreamless, wishless, ambitionless, he acts without reason his sole motivation is because he wanted to.

...

Do you even listen to me? You did not see him in his prime. A 450 pound beast who stands tall at 6'5, I dare you to find someone other than him who matches that description.

...

Well yeah, he lost a lot of weight over the years halving his body weight.

...

Puhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah! You think that would dishearten him? He'd simply shrug and Regain it.

...

My advice to fight him? Look deep into yourself and forgive yourself to even get into this situation. The only thing keeping him on the ground is speed. And it doesn't matter if he can't even fell your hits.

However some real advise now. Attack him from his sides, he can't withstand heavy recoil from his sides as good. Don't hit with a fist, you'll just break your hand. Instead use your open palm and preferably the whiplash.

...

Yeah I know its a self defence for women and children but infront of Alexander we're all just little bitches.

Don't go for a low blow, he's already got reflexes for it. Your only reliable target area on him is the neck or above.

And for the love of whatever the fuck you worship, don't make it personal.
