Hunt

"Axel, darling, we're going to leave now, is there anything you have left to do?" my mother said as soon as she saw me come down the stairs.

"No mom, all set, I've also instructed about some things that Claire will have to do later, plus I want her as my personal maid when we get home. Can I?" I said with an innocent look.

Seeing this behavior, Claire was startled, ' how can he can be so different with her mother from other people, acting like that, he really seems like just a normal child.'

But her partners misinterpreted it, as if she was threatened and immediately Angelica exclaimed, "how do we know what you want to do to her when you're alone with her, damm bast-"

*PAF* *PAF*

Two slaps sounded, my mother was furious with her for speaking to me like that, "damn scum how dare you insult your master, and more importantly, MY son, do you have a death wish?"

The killing intent that she exuded was quite big, but Claire dropped to her knees and begged her not to do anything to her.

My mother just looked at me and I told her, "it doesn't matter, she'll learn what she has to do, now let's go out.

Mom, surely father's men will follow us, do you think you and Claire are enough to stop them?".

She thought for a moment and said, "The auras I felt were from 2 people who were around level 230, but while they didn't feel strong, they probably specialized in assassination, so it will be hard to catch them, but if done right, there is no problem".

With everything planned, my mother gave me the storage ring that had my swords, so that I could also store the animals that I kill and if any have use, they will be stored.

I was planning to use Gluttony on them, but mom told me that most around the area we'll be in are just beasts that don't use mana or abilities.

She also warned me that although they may have higher stats, their danger level is lower, since they have low intelligence and don't know how to use it well, but you have to be careful with the boss beasts.

These beasts are those that have gained intelligence and have a 'territory' where they can command other beasts, they are usually known as field bosses or king beasts, as well as being much stronger and larger than those that accompany them.

That would be problematic for others, but my system can measure the level of danger they present so I don't have much to worry about.

We went about 2 km when we saw the first beasts, at this moment I was alone with Claire who was acting to protect me and lower the guard from those who were chasing us, since right now for people she was simply a C-rank.

Let's see my first kills, there were about 10 horned rabbits, you can consider quite a few pests, but the most impressive thing is that there was a king from the beginning.

---------------

[Race]: Horned rabbit King

[ LVL: 15 / 30 - Rank E (E-) ]

---------------

However, the rest were F ranks so I quickly finished them off.

[You have killed 9 F-rank horned rabbits]

[You have gained 900 EXP]

[You have gained 45 P]

'Oh, it seems that killing weak beasts is good for the shop too... nah, considering how much it costs to buy something, it's normal for them to count.'

"Now let's see little king, show me how dangerous you are" at that moment he was fully focused, since it was the first beast that would pose any danger to me.

I could kill him just by releasing a bit of my killing intent, but that wouldn't make sense when I had to fight other stronger beings.

I grabbed my two swords and well, I practiced a technique that I bought in the store for 500 P, and yes, it was a mere technique that allowed me to wield the sword, but of course, when you looked in my Skills section, it would appear [Sword Newbie (F ) LVL.1], sigh~.

At least it worked for me now.

I started swinging the weapons towards that rabbit, they were simple movements, a vertical slash, a horizontal slash and one slash that used both swords in an X shape.

I couldn't use mana well yet, so I simply used physical strength right now.

It must be said that the difference between normal beasts and king beasts is noticeable, it wasn't until after 5 minutes that I managed to finish her off, but I didn't come out unscathed either.

Claire helped me with some injuries, having an affinity with blood, it is very easy for her to coagulate different injuries that are not very serious without the need for mana potions.

[You have killed an E-rank Horned rabbit King]

[You have gained 400 EXP]

[You have gained 5 P]

Fifteen days passed like this, it was only half a month away, but I was in a bottleneck, although I said that it was not as simple as leveling up, I did not know that it would be that long, right now I am at level 10 about to go to rank E.

Initially it is in this range that I will awaken my bloodline, but I am still not sure of the consequences, and with the threat that they will find out something and inform my father, I cannot rush it.

It can be said that I have little left to pass the rank, but the difficult thing is that the F-rank beasts give much less EXP, and the E-rank ones in this area are scarce.

And while I can go deeper since I have Claire here, I can't risk it since she's on the lookout for the actions of the spies.

Exactly, five days ago they appeared, and although they were well hidden, Claire noticed them.

Well, right now I'm on my way to see my mother, since they showed up, she has been communicating with Claire, and tomorrow they will be caught, or at least they will try to.

Soon, morning came and I woke up, I was quite nervous as today we might cause a big problem and various things would be found out.

I hope they can be captured without difficulty...
