Chapter 261

Chapter 261

Just to get Jake Raynold's attention, the secretary started thinking about important topics. Then he realized that Lane actually closed the deal with the Redemption. Lane was praised by the higher-ups because it. It seemed like her connection with the Redemption was still alive. 

"Ah, Leader, I remembered that Lane made a deal with Kyle, the Guild Leader of the Redemption! Do you want to hear it?"

Jake glanced at him and sighed in defeat. He has nothing to do anyway. 

"Go on."

The secretary nodded and did his best to remember most of the important stuff. 

"Then, ahem, Miss Lane successfully close the deal with Sir Kyle Rockwell and now we have the monopoly of most of the Runic Weapons! And we bought it slightly above the average price! Now we can use this to increase our firepower or sell some of them!!"

The secretary excitedly said as his eyes beaming with a sign of dollar, he was a money lover through and through. Jake touched his chin and began thinking, it was actually a good thing. However, he was curious about one thing. 

"Their power, are these weapons powerful?"

"Well about that, the technology was still new so their power was just about the average ability of Items and they mostly focus on elemental effects such as fire and wind elements."

The secretary as the corners of his lips twitched, he successfully caught his attention with this, and his neck was safe now. 

Jake, who was oblivious to any of his thoughts, started calculating the possible profit. 

"Not bad. I bet the higher-ups will use it to gather more people under their banner."

He concluded. In all honesty, he didn't care about the higher-ups. The only reason he agreed to be a Guild Leader is that they let him do what he wants. He could do leveling freely with no distraction. The only thing they want was to make him the leader as publicity and become the face of their Guild. Although right now, their Guild was getting pushed back because of him. 

"… It's because I didn't participate in that battle, again!!!"

He yelled and a powerful aura released out of his body. The secretary stumbled as he lost the strength in his knees. He cursed himself, he made Jake remember the problem again. He gulped as he feared that Jake might destroy the building.

And his deduction was spotted on, Jake Raynold glared at him and exploded like a missile. 

"It's because you're fucking slow!!"

'Oh God, Abe Maria, Buddha, Allah, Flying Spaghetti, all of the Gods! Please help me to get away from this demon!'

The secretary prayed to all the Gods and religions he knew. Jake Raynold may accidentally/intentionally kill him with his bare hands alone.

…

In Australia, hundreds of giant spiders were crawling on the ground and eating all of the living things in the forest. It was a monster wave, the Portal was hidden and the portal radar couldn't detect it. The Portal reached hundreds of days and now the monsters inside the Portal crawled out of it. The Portal was a Spider-type Dungeon and these monsters were poisonous although it was not strong and could be cure by potions. 

Still, the damages that the monsters made were massive. The poor trees and the wildlife were greatly hurt and it may take years to heal the destruction. Yet the monsters didn't have any intention of stopping, instead, they continued devouring the life until they completely vanished. 

However, while they were busy feasting, what they didn't know was that Hunters were immediately dispatched to their location. 

A young man who came from the sky bit his palm as he landed on the ground, the ground cracked and a powerful shockwave assaulted the monsters. 

Colt appeared and fought the monsters, his hand was bleeding as he made a self-injured gesture. He took a needle and stabbed his finger, it was small, and Colt could endure the pain. 

Colt acquired his newest Skill, the Pain Repulsion. Whenever he received an injury, he could create powerful shockwaves to attack his enemies. This was the best he did to evolve his Counter. To do a self-inflicting pain and release it as a shockwave, it was a cool power by the way. Because the greater the damage he received, the stronger the shockwave. It can be compared to Kalman's shield ability. 

The monsters that were hit by the shockwaves lost their lives, some survived but their limbs and organs were missing. Colt cast his eyes on them and he didn't feel any fear at all, he must not. 

'My brother faced stronger monsters than this. I have to be better.'

Colt decided to stay here in Australia to train and control his power, he wanted to have a high precision so that he won't waste mana. As far as he knew, only a few people could control their mana like a god. Some of them were, Yukki, Kyle, and Kitsune. Colt's goal was to reach their levels in terms of mana manipulation. 

"… But first I have to teach this bastard a lesson."

He was not talking about the spiders, he was talking about the incoming man. A young draconian man walked towards the monsters, he looked human although he had two protruding horns on his forehead and his shoulders down to his arms were covered with grey scales. As for his eyes, the irises were slanted like a viper. And he had sharp teeth like sharks in the ocean. Despite looking cool and strong, the young man was not smiling at all. In fact, his expression didn't change at all. It was different from Colt's cold expression, this draconian was emotionless and didn't show anything on his face. 

His face was stiff as a rock. He is Shenten, the one and only son of King Timar and Queen Saya. He is the prince of the Beastmen. 

Shenten walked into the horde of monsters without any fear, he just raised his arms and his fingers turned into sharp claws. He attacked the monsters head-on and with every damage he made, the spiders slowly turned into stones. This is Shenten's power, he could petrify (turn to stone) the enemies that were damaged by his claws. 

As a Draconian, he inherited one of their unique powers, the petrification, just like the Basilisk of the Punishment. 

[Note: I think I already wrote about Shenten once, it's in chapter 168. As for his other sibling, it's a girl.]

[Sheten's name came from the anime Dragon Ball, the Dragon name Shen Long, I just changed into a closer one.]
