Chapter 291 Scent perception Skill.
"One down two more to go."
Kyle gazed at the two awestruck moths and straightened his body. His brows knitted together when he felt the sensation of warm blood trickling down his thighs. Yet, he stubbornly shook his hand to clear the murky golden blood from his sword.
Amidst the intense pain shooting up to his spine, he took a step forward, his legs wobbled a little but he immediately balanced himself.
This sudden movement successfully jolted the moths out of their trance. They looked at him with raged breathing, contemplating if they should continue or not because the one who died was the eldest among the trio. Of course, they wanted to exact revenge but what if the human killed them as well?
Kyle clenched his empty hand tightly, almost digging his tail in his palm, to maintain his consciousness.
'I can only use instant teleportation one more time...'
His body was screaming with pain and his mana was exhausted, the remaining couldn't even help him if he wanted to escape. However, he had zero plan on falling here. After all, a lot of people were waiting for him. Not to mention, the panicked emotions of Bia that had been stabbing at the back of his head from the moment he saw the bloody sight. He almost thought, maybe she was the one who was injured.
'Did I just block her voice? How...I need to..'
Kyle's thoughts halted abruptly when one of the moths suddenly cried out and pointed his sharp and trembling wing toward him.
"You! Hum...an! How dare you kill our brother!"
After voicing his grief he looked at his companion to seek what he should do. However, his companion was too in panic. After all, the duo always followed the eldest command from the moment they gained sanity. Now the eldest was dead, so their emotions were in a mess.
The second moth suddenly grabbed his brother from behind and threw a seething glare at Kyle but if one looked closely under that anger was shock and fear. He hurriedly flapped his wings and dragged his brother away, his last words echoing in the air like a thunderous roar.
"One day we will kill you!"
Kyle's eyes stayed blank as he watched their figures fade away in the distance. He let out a dry laugh that looked nothing but forced. nove(l)bi(n.)com
Kyle stood up and closed his eyes to check the skill.

Kyle's eyebrow twitched when he read the words 'pseudo divine'. He couldn't believe such a powerful skill belonged to a bug.
"Now I know how the moths were tracking me so easily even though normally my presence is hidden due to the artifact."
The skill core in his hand burst into bright particles before vanishing into his body. As he made his way toward the mountain, a wave of scents flooded his nostrils almost overwhelming his senses. At first, he sensed the air around, it was filled with the fresh aroma of grass, the delicate scent of flowers, and the intense smell of blood.
However, only after a second, Kyle's sense of smell expanded in all directions and he retched when hundreds of overpowering scents made his vision blurry.
"What the.. How the hell did they use this skill?"
He wiped his mouth with a frown and immediately deactivated the skill.
"Ugh.. it's a completely useless skill."
Amidst his complaints, he suddenly ran in the opposite direction before stopping in front of a large rock. Kyle pushed the rock away and looked at the ground, only to see a purple color plant.
"I just smell something good from this place."
