(An: Do you know that I write three chapters per day?)

(It's been a week since I created this fanfic!)

''Hmm, we almost arrived at the spirit hunting forest!''

Lin Feng's eyes keep staring at the mini-map as they're moving at a fast speed and almost arrived at the spirit hunting forest, which is their destination.

(There a large mass of blue dots near the spirit hunting forest?!) Lin Feng thought with a frown.

But after looking at the topographic structure near his destination, a smile appears on his face.

''I see...'' Lin Feng said with a sly smile on his face.

''Of course, there is a small village or town for spirit master to rest after fighting on spirit hunting forest, right.''

''Kro, slow down your speed!'' He calmly instructed, and his big doggo nodded while starting to slow down his speed.

''Hmm, Aria?'' Lin Feng is tilting his head.

''Why are you hugging me so tightly?'' He asked as he can feel Aria's hand embracing his body.

''...I want to protect master,'' Aria calmly answered with a poker face.

(I don't know what is she thinking right now) Lin Feng wryly thought while sighing as he stares at Aria's poker face.

''Oh, I can see it already!'' Lin Feng said in surprise while looking at the stone gate in their way.

''Kro!''

''Woof!'' Kro's nodded his head while rapidly decreasing his speed and stopped at ninety meters away from the small city.

''Okay, good job!'' Lin Feng praised his big doggo while scratching his fur.

''Woof!'' Kro proudly raising his chest.

''Hahaha, you can go back to the summoning space, and I already put a steak for you there!'' Lin Feng stated with a chuckle.

''Woof!'' Kro nodded while wagging his tail and disappear into thin air.

''...Summoning space,'' Aria muttered while looking at the thin air where Kro jumped and disappeared.

''Ah, you never enter summoning space, right?'' Lin Feng said, making his maid nodded her head.

''Do you want to try it?'' He proposed.

''Mm,'' Aria nodded.

''Well, then go, try it...'' Lin Feng said with a smile, and Aria also disappears into thin air like Kro.

In the summoning space, a curious Aria appearing and start floating, but after a few seconds, we can see that's she was bored.

''There is no master, boring...'' She muttered with a frown.

''Woof...'' Kro's growled while tilting his head as he is taking a bite of a steak from Lin Feng.

''Kro,'' Aria muttered while looking at the fluffy furred creature in front of her.

''Master, call you Kro...''

''Can I call you Kro too?'' She asked as Kro responded with a nod of his head.

''...Thank you,'' Aria smiled a little while disappearing and coming back to Lin Feng's side.

''How was it?'' Lin Feng asked while looking his maid appear again out of thin air.

''It's boring...'' Aria flatly replied, ''But, I met Kro there.''

''Uh, boring?'' Lin Feng muttered with a wry smile as the summoning space is only an empty space without any decoration, but this space could heal his summons.

''Hmm?''

''Aria, did you call Kro by his name just now?'' He curiously asked.

''Mm,'' Aria nodded, ''he let me call him Kro.''

(I see, interesting) Lin Feng thought with a smile when he heard Aria's response.

Shaking his head a little bit, Lin Feng then taking the skull mask from his inventory, which he instantly wears to conceal his identity.

''Well, then, let's start walking toward our destination.'' He said while walking toward the spirit hunting forest.

Two of them arrived at the small town near the spirit hunting, and a surprise smile appears on Lin Feng's face.

''This place is full of spirit master?'' He muttered with a surprised expression.

''Hmm, a few of them are ordinary peoples!'' He added.

Aria's eyes are also gauging the danger of this place, but after glancing for a few seconds, she lost her interest as she can't feel any dangerous presence, who can win against her.

''Master is safe...'' She muttered while following Lin Feng walking into the town.

Walking for a few minutes, many people want to approach them and asked if they want their help to hunt the spirit beast or not, but after feeling a cold glare from Aria's eyes. Almost all of them running scaredly.

''Hmm, this place...'' Lin Feng muttered with a smile.

''After roaming for a moment, I finally found it,'' He smiled, ''the market.''

''Selling bone of spirit beast and it's from thousand years spirit beast!''

''Hey, hey, come here, look at my spirit grass!''

''I've got good stuff, do you want to see it!''

There are many sellers in this market, but some of them are a fraud.

Lin Feng using Grey's scan to determine the value of their goods, which brings out a wry smile on his face.

''Bone of spirit beast of a thousand years spirit beast?'' Lin Feng is wryly shaking his head as Grey's scan showing that these bones are from a hundred-year spirit beast!

''Hmm, Spirit grass?'' Lin Feng muttered as spirit grass can help someone heals their wounds.

''How much?'' he asked the seller as he can see the value of the spirit grass.

(Hmm, the spirit grass in good condition, but unfortunately, it's only ten years old) Lin Feng thought.

(Hmm, They should be a noble) He thought with a sly smile while seeing a kid wearing a wolf skull and a woman wearing a veil.

''Ten silver coins,'' The seller replied.

''Hmm, fifty copper coins...'' Lin Feng said with a smile.

''W-What!''

''There is no way I will sell this grass for fifty copper coins!''

''At least five silver coins!'' He said while staring at Lin Feng.

''Well, then, goodbye!'' Lin Feng said while walking away from the seller.

''W-Wait!'' The seller said.

''What?'' Lin Feng replied while turning his body back.

''Four silver coins!'' The seller proposed.

''Hmm, one hundred copper coins...'' Lin Feng calmly answered with a sly smile.

''Three silver coins!'' The seller stated with a firm tone.

''You see, your spirit grass is only ten years old, so it's effect is not as good as mature spirit grass?''

''You want to sell this grass to me?''

''Then lower the price!'' Lin Feng coldly stared at the seller's eyes.

''T-Two silver coins...'' The seller said, ''I can't lower the price more than this.''

''Deal,'' Lin Feng said while throwing two silver coins while taking the spirit grass and walked away with Aria.

''Hehehe...'' The seller laughed as he sees two silver coins in his hand.

(Hmph, what a stupid kid, that spirit grass original price is only one silver coin!) He thought while coldly snorted.

''What an idiot seller,'' Lin Feng muttered with a smile.

''This spirit grass is already mature! Because they're mature in only ten years!'' He added while keep searching for interesting goods in the market.

After walking for a few minutes, Lin Feng didn't found any interesting items.

''Let's go to the spirit hunting forest.''

''It's been a while since I use my body...'' Lin Feng said with a little excitement.

''Un,'' Aria nodded.

Two of them then walked toward the spirit hunting forest and found a large gate with a few guards in front of it.

''One gold coin per person...'' He muttered while looking at the guard who stopped a group of people, making them paid one gold coin per person to enter the forest.

(Isn't it a little weird to see a kid wearing a skull mask entering the spirit hunting forest?) He thought with a wry smile.

''Well, whatever...'' He said as he instructed Aria to enter the summoning space.

Walking to the guard, he then got stopped by them.

''Stop,'' the guard said with a frown.

''What are you doing in here, kid?'' He said while staring at Lin Feng.

''Training...''

''Pfft...'' the guard laughed when he heard Lin Feng's response as it was a joke!

''Hahahaha....''

''Hey, Did you heard it!''

''This brat said that he wants to train in the spirit hunting forest!''

''Do you want to suicide, brat?''

''Why don't you come back to your mama!''

Lin Feng is still calmly looking at them until his body disappears while placing a dagger in the guard's neck, making all the guards in the place frozen stiff.

''Fast!'' one of them commented.

''This brat has an ability...''

''I don't even see him moving, and he already disappears!''

''Hmph, here...'' Lin Feng said while throwing a gold coin toward the guard and walked toward the spirit hunting forest.
