Sin and Virtue System-Chapter 18 18. Strong Foe. [2]
'I was curious to directly visit the dungeon but before that, I need a few things to do.'
"Lara, come here."
"Yes, Master?" 𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺
Standing naked in front of me, the blonde milf was drying her hair and looked stunning.
"After I come back, make a fake identity of me with the name 'Alexander Wolford'. Meet me here again in two days."
"Yes, master. Your Identity will be ready."
Nodding to her response, I went for my dungeon expedition.
'I won't go to the Royal Academy with my real name.'
Thinking about the future I reached the outskirts of the village.
My goal was to find monsters and kill them to practice my Martial arts.
From the spatial ring, I got from the dead bodies, I took out my [Gazel's Sword].
The sword was dull and blunt. It was a black-colored sheath and looked very ominous. And there was a reason for its ominous aura.
'Blood.'
The sword had many requirements to be fulfilled and then only it will release its true power. Blood was an important factor in it.
But I was oblivious of those requirements.
…
Walking toward the dungeon, I encountered many monsters and I slayed them without any hesitation. But I took a lot of time to kill even <E> rank monsters.
My movements were stiff, rough, and rigid. I was able to put to this only because, my title [God of War] gave me all information about the monsters I fought, such as their strengths, weaknesses, defense, and overall power.
Their names, bloodlines, and races were also in that guide-like thing.
It was helpful and I was using it to the fullest.
After some time my movements became a little better.
While collecting those monster cores I saw a wolf growling at me. The stats of that particular wolf were different and I saw a message at the bottom.
…
Name: Dire Wolf (Alpha)
Bloodline: Rare.
Race: Wolf.
Strength: 150
Stamina: 229
Agility: 204
Mana: 70
Intelligence: 157
Defense: 160
Affinity: Wind.
Ability: [Defense] [Formation] [Wolf Claws]
Skill: [Pack Leader] [Encouraging Howl]
…
<Host can devour and increase power and also gain skills of the dead.>
"Can I devour all these monsters?"
<Yes, but only after bloodline awakening.>
"…"
I had put all those monsters I slain, inside the spatial rings I had.
I didn't know the ring's capacity, so as long as the bodies fit inside, it was good.
Gaugin the wolf I noticed that the wolf was big, with grey-colored fur, and cross-black eyes. Baring its fangs at me it was gauging my strength.
I calmly looked at the wolf.
'I think I should release my demonic energy.'
I released my demonic energy but I kept the previous appearance of a human.
Once my strength passed through my body once again, I no longer feared the beast in front of me.
"Ha!"
Not giving the wolf the chance to attack I carried out my sword skills and with the guidance of [God of War], I saw all of its weak points.
But to my surprise, the wolf dodged, parried, and even countered my attacks with its claws.
'So this an alpha huh?'
This was the first time I fought an alpha.
I swung my sword at its neck and heart. I tried to slash, but its fur was like iron armor and my blunt sword was not getting through it.
Back on earth, I was never required to fight for survival in literal.
Although I had strength and knowledge this was my first time doing so.
The wolf wasn't idle either. It was menacing, attacking my head, heart, and limbs. I had to follow the guide otherwise, I would've died without even knowing.
So we continued to fight for some time.
… ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺
'Let's end this.'
I got the amount of practice I wanted, so I decided to fight like a demon.
Sheathing my sword, I looked at the beast in front of me.
It had a provoking face.
'As if I will fall for it.'
The dire wolves had iron-hard fur all over their body except for the neck region.
Because of that, most beasts while fighting target their neck. However, the dire wolves were not dumb. They used to fall their prey for such an obvious trap and then using their super agility, they snap their prey in a second or so.
It was UNO reverse card ultimate version.
I took my stance and looked at the wolf as if I am going to snap its neck with my next move.
The wolf grinned.
Putting my hand on the handle of the sword I rushed but I did not unsheathe the sword.
The wolf opted to move its body to counter-attack my move, but to the wolf's absolute surprise.
'Got you.'
I released my claws and shoved them inside the region of its neck.
I smirked and the wolf's eyes widened.
The wolves never had holy magic which can differentiate Mana and Demonic energy.
Once my appearance did not change and just the strength, this intelligent beast should've thought of me using some strength boost.
Poor soul.
I unsheathe my sword and shoved it inside the same hole.
Splurt-
Thud-
It didn't even get time to retaliate much less to counter.
I had a hunch that my sword will get something once I gave it the blood, but nothing happened or I did not notice.
Stepping on its face I cut open its skull and took the monster's core.
"Tsk."
'Only if I was a progenitor right now, I would've turned you into my slave and stepped on that pride of yours.'
The wolf's eyes were like it was wronged, but to whom can it complain?
"Hm?"
It was at this moment that I realized that there were some threads in the air. Black threads but the threads were of different widths.
'What is this?'
<Host, a demon can sense the presence of the other demons in the vicinity. These threads are showing how powerful the presence of the demon is. It is recommended to lower the host's presence.>
"How strong are these demons?"
I said while trying to touch the threads but to no avail.
<The host does not have the ability or skill to scan the surroundings.>
'Tsk.'
Annoying. Is this how you treat your protagonist?
'Show me something from that skill and ability in the system shop.'
<Host does not have access to the system shop. It was a single-time privilege. The host needs to breakthrough and after which level 1 of the system shop will be unlocked.>
'How many points do you need to scan the vicinity and tell me about all the Monsters, humans, and demons present?'
I was sure about one thing, and that was, that there was nothing that can't be bought with the points.
I even bought the information for giving up one of my precious chances to obtain something super strong.
But whom are they fooling?
Everything has a price to pay and that is the rule of the world. Nothing is free in this world.
<…>
'Blue tick no reply huh?'
I was a patient person. Unless I get the full information, I won't do anything. I will wait and then attack.
<For a radius of 10km, the host has to pay 1500 Evil points.>
'My balance?'
***
Evil Points: 3,369
***
'Confirm purchase.'
<Ding!>
<Purchase confirmed.>
***
Evil Points: 1,869
***
<The effect of [Scan (temporary)] will remain for One day which is 24 hours.>
<Time left: 23:59:56>
…
"Then use [Scan]"
