Capítulo 107: An unexpected fight
This time it wasn't like other times, where the density was due to your veins becoming stronger, now it was the mana itself that made a qualitative leap. Testing out some moves, he also noticed that his body was much stronger.
The boy estimated that he could reach the peak of the eighth rank with his body normally and with transcendence in the middle of the ninth rank. If you use the ultimate form of transcendence, you should be able to reach close to the peak of the apprentice realm.
Now he was absurdly strong. The boy doubted that Astolfo would beat him if they were on the same level, even with the boy using his family's technique. Checking the date on his phone, Kayden realized he had been unconscious for two days.
Fortunately, because of the excess mana in the environment, he did not die from lack of nutrients or water. His body could passively absorb mana and convert it into nutrition for his physique.
The boy got ready to leave and headed towards the exit. Everything was normal, well... not so much. The forest was eerily quiet. Because of his momentary happiness, Kayden didn't notice this detail.
ROAR!!!
A huge roar shook Kayden out of his bliss. Adrenaline began to rush through his body as he realized what was happening. A huge golden wolf was looking at him.
Without even thinking twice, the boy assumed a fighting stance. Several hypotheses ran through his head in the last few milliseconds. This region must be dominated by a lion, he was sure of it.
Unfortunately, he didn't have time to confirm anything as the beast was rushing towards him at a surreal speed. Seeing his speed, Kayden knew there was no way he could run away from this fight.
Waiting for the right moment to use concentrated lightning, Kayden stood still with his heart beating like a drum in his chest. It didn't take long for the wolf to jump at him.
At that moment, the boy used a concentrated beam directly on the beast's chest. Hitting home, he continued for a sideways slash of his katana. Or at least that's how he tried, but the animal dodged.
Its body mass was so great that the lightning only managed to slow down its movements minimally. The beast turned its eyes to the boy. You could see she was enraged. How dare a mere biped attack an alpha wolf?
Before she could begin her next move, she found herself blinded by an incredibly bright light emitting from Kayden's hand. The boy took advantage of this moment to approach and give the beast a good blow on the back.
Unfortunately, the attack only caused a medium-depth wound and was not capable of becoming fatal. This time, the beast roared angrily. She hadn't been injured in a long time. She didn't even remember that feeling.
Running at the boy, the wolf released a huge blast of flames, taking Kayden by surprise, but it was easily dodged by the boy. He's fought enough always to predict the worst-case scenario in a fight.
Performing a feint to the right, he brought his blade down on the wolf's back without mercy. This time, a deep wound opened up on the animal's back before it could dodge.
Roar!
With an even louder roar than before, his fur began to catch fire, healing all his wounds with the naked eye.
'Shit'. Kayden was screwed and he knew it. How was he going to fight a practically immortal beast? Using a pop flash, the boy gained space to think about what to do.
The wolf was furious at having to use his self-healing ability. As he grew in power, he developed a certain intelligence. The beast was at the beginning of the eighth apprentice rank.
When she reached the mage level, she could even begin to speak. But for now, his only ability was to have thoughts that were a little more complex than a five-year-old.
And at that moment, his only thought was hatred for the creature that hurt him. Nothing else mattered other than his revenge. Running after the boy, she prepared herself for any strange movement that could blind him.
This time, there was nothing. With a six-foot jump, she opened her mouth to bite Kayden. Along with that, it also released a burst of flames, preventing the boy from performing any spells.
The boy dodged to the side and a kick followed his movement. The animal's speed was simply absurd and managed to cause a large cut on his left arm.
Putting 30% of all his mana into a concentrated beam, Kayden threw it directly at the beast's chest. At point-blank range, there wasn't much she could do. And, as he had already received this attack before, he decided to just ignore it.
Kayden cracked a smile. When his spell hit the beast's chest, it was left freezing for a relatively long period this time. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the boy thrust his katana into the beast's eyes.
a pop flash head-on, rendering its second eye useless. This time, Kayden was the predator and ran after the animal without giving it a chance to escape.
His first blow went towards the animal's other eye and almost went through her entire skull. The boy had to admit that magical beasts had ridiculous tenacity.
As the boy expected, she tried to use her flame technique to heal herself. Unfortunately for her, Kayden didn't plan on allowing that. Activating transcendence, the boy delivered a vertical blow to the animal's neck.
A dull thud was heard as the completely severed head fell to the ground. Kayden quickly deactivated transcendence. Due to the short period of use, it did not cause any momentary weakness for the boy.
His first action was to look at his hands. He knew he was stronger by compressing his mana three times, but he had no idea he could face an equal beast. Granted, his battle experience played a greater role than his strength itself.
The boy began to burn the animal's body. He had no use for the wolf's organic material. This would barely sell for a few dozen silver coins. Kayden wasn't that poor anymore.
What he was looking for was for the animal to have a mana core, which Kayden was sure was a mana heart after losing its function and ability to keep operating. The chance of something like this coming from a magical beast was low.
But the wolf was a leader among magical beasts, so it was almost certain that he had developed his heart enough for him to be able to survive the erosion of death from his body and become a mana stone.
Beast cores had many uses, but the main one was to obtain the elemental mana that was inside it. That would be enough to sell for dozens of gold coins. It could be in the hundreds if he sold it to the right person.
'Luck smiled on me', the boy thought as he took out a kind of ruby from the ground. It was about the size of a ping-pong ball and gave off a feeling of visible heat, almost as if it promised to burn the entire world.
Returning home, Kayden had to make up some excuse for Han. Fortunately, the man didn't care too much and just told the boy not to do it again.
