章 280: Crown

Many were in a frenzy looking for Ryu. His score kept ticking upward, having long since breached the top fifty, yet none could find his trail. Some speculated he might have been a beast master judging by how easily he subdued the Bloodied Steed and instead began looking for beasts instead, but how difficult was it to find specific beasts in a forest filled with beasts?

Battles between two beasts wasn't a rare phenomenon at all, firstly. Secondly, the only beast they knew Ryu had was the Bloodied Steed, but the Nemesis of today looked nothing like the Nemesis they had known in the past and it wasn't as though Bloodied Steeds were a rare breed of beast. These two factors together made Little Rock's time hunting especially easy, while Nemesis only had to be slightly more cautious.
