chapter 4
Li Yifeng followed the two and left the forest. His eyes shone with light when he saw the green grass fields outside the forest. He couldn't help but take a deep breath.
While keeping a good distance from Allan and Cecil, he noticed that there was a fight near a carriage. A group of guards wearing armours from head to toe were fighting a group of bandits. The bandits' number was less than the guards. But, one of could control two large, grey wolves.
Allan and Cecil rushed toward the guards to assist them in killing the bandits.
Li Yifeng's eyes stared at the bandits and found most of them at Level 47. But, the one who controlled the two wolves was at level 50! And the wolves were at the same level.
He couldn't help but lick his lips after seeing the two wolves. They will definitely push him to Level 33 or 35.
He looked at the Rusty Sword in his hand and throw it away. He had to spend Negative Points to fix it many times during his stay in the forest. Now, he has 7000 Negative Points which will allow him to buy the best Rare Rank Sword in the store.
He threw the Rusty Sword away and bought the Blood Sword.
---------------
Blood Sword, Rare Rank Sword.
Effects: Increase the Strength and Agility by 10 Points.
Special Effect: Boosts the Effect of the Blood Sword Aura and hide the effect of the skill.
Durability: 100/100
Price: 5000 Negative Points.
-----------------
Li Yifeng brought the sword just for the special effect. Darkness Element is something that most likely is seen as demonic by this world residents. And if they don't think so, it is better to be safe than sorry.
Li Yifeng moved closer to the fight and waited for the right moment to strike the wolves. A few guards and bandits died during the battle which made him sick. Seeing their corpses lying on the ground was jarring for him.
Still, this is how the world worked. The strong devour the weak. Even though he will do his best to not kill anyone, he should prepare himself for a situation that requires him to do so.
During the battle, Cecil was the one who shone the most due to her assistance with Ice Shards from a safe distance. Allan was staying beside her and prevented any bandit from getting closer to her.
Quickly, the bandit's number was reduced to 3 bandits and the two wolves.
The two wolves were wounded seriously. But, the bandit's leader used them as a shield to escape with the remaining bandits.
Allan was about to chase them but was stopped by the Guard's Leader.
"We should get rid of the wolves first.".
Allan nodded and focused all of his attention on the wolves. With Cecil and the guards' help, they were about to kill them. But, a person suddenly appeared and with his red sword stole the kill for the two wolves.
Allan was dumbfounded when he saw Li Yifeng shake his sword and look at him with a serious face.
"Why are you always making me save you?".
"You son of a bitch!" Allan nearly lost his mind.
Li Yifeng smiled gently and said " Still, I will always put all of my efforts into saving you!".
He looked at the Notification Window in front and couldn't help but become depressed.
He levelled up 6 levels from killing two levels 50 wolves! Shouldn't he level up more?!
Ding!
--------------------
The Host is the Demon King. And due to that, he will need more Exp to level up than those at the same level. This will become apparent after reaching Level 30.
--------------------
Li Yifeng sighed in grief. But, the negative points he gained from Allan and guards alleviated his mood slightly.
He earned around 5000 Negative Points.
"Die!" Allan rushed toward Li Yifeng and slashed with his two swords.
"Allan, stop!" Cried out Cecil. Allan wants to kill a person in front of the Royal Guards! He will definitely be punished for it. Sadly, her voice didn't reach him and his swords were about to cut Li Yifeng.
Li Yifeng was now Level 35, and his stats were way higher than Allan. So he easily retreated and avoided the swords.
"Stop!" The Royal Guard's Leader roared angrily which caused Allan's body to stiffen.
"Even though he came late, he still helped us by killing the wolves." Said the Leader with sharp eyes.
"But..."
"Don't mind this little brat! We are best friends and we killed many monsters together." Said Li Yifeng while waving his hand.
+700 Negative Points from Allan.
"He harassed me and my sister in the Silver Moon Forest! He killed the Blazing Sun Lions that we spent a huge amount of time and effort in taking them down." Said Allan.
The Leader looked at Li Yifeng and wanted to hear his response.
"I didn't steal the kills, I just used him. It was troublesome to kill the Blazing Sun Lions. And he didn't take the necessary precautions to prevent people from stealing his monsters."
"Actually, he shouldn't be saying that I stole from him. I was teaching him a lesson about life!" Said Li Yifeng with a straight face.
"You...You..." Allan pointed at Li Yifeng with his face bright red from anger.
The Leader and the guards were speechless by Li Yifeng' shameless words.
+500 Negative Points.
+700 Negative Points.
+300 Negative Points.
- 500 Negative Points from Shea.
"Huh?" Li Yifeng was stunned when he saw that 500 Negative Points were suddenly deducted from.
A gentle chuckle came from the carriage followed by a beautiful girl with blonde hair opening the carriage's door.
"You are an interesting person!" Said the girl.
"Princess!". The guards knelt after seeing her. Allan and Cecil did the same. Only Li Yifeng was standing.
"How dare you show such disrespect to the Princess?!" Yelled Allan. This could be a chance to kill this bastard.
"Oh, she is the princess! Which country do you belong to?" Li Yifeng's lips twitched. To meet a Princess this quick after waking up in this world is sure surprising.
"How dare you speak to the Princess in such tone?!" Yelled Allan. Suddenly, he was slapped by Li Yifeng. He couldn't react to him at all which made him stare dumbly at Li Yifeng.
"Shut up! I am talking to the Princess not you!" Said Li Yifeng.
+1000 Negative Points from Allan.
+500 Negative Points from Cecil.
-500 Negative Points from Shea.
"Shit! Stop taking Negative Points from me!" Cried Li Yifeng in his Heart.
"The Black Moon Empire" said Princess Shea. She was interested in Li Yifeng because even through with her appraisal skill, she could know his level. She was baffled by this fact as only Heroes is like this.
Li Yifeng was depressed by the fact that this girl has stolen 1000 Negative points from. He waved his hand and said" Well, I don't belong to the Black Moon Empire."
Suddenly, he smiled after inspecting the levels of every one of the guards. The blood sword appeared in his hand and said " Everyone, raise your hands. This is a robbery!".
+300 Negative Points from guard A
+200 Negative Points from guard B
+500 Negative Points from guard C
+400 Negative Points from guard D
-500 Negative Points from Shea.
The guards became angry and their bodies radiated killing intent. The Leader stood in front of the Princess and he grabbed his spear tightly.
Li Yifeng was dumbfounded when he saw that the Princess was still deducting Negative Points from him. Does she enjoy this?!
He couldn't help but ask "Princess Shea, is there something wrong with your head?".
"How dare y..." Roared Allan but he was slapped by Li Yifeng again and his body rolled on the ground for a few meters before stopping.
"Allan!" Cried Cecil as she rushed to Allan.
Princess Shea was calm and said " You want money? Then, work under me. I can give you enough money that you will not know what to do with it." She raised two fingers.
"Two million gold coins". Said Princess Shea. The Black Moon Empire was the Most wealthy Empire In the continent. As a Princess, her monthly Salary is 5 Million Gold Coins. Li Yifeng's level is 35 and he was able to defeat Allan who was at Level 45 with a single slap. This speaks volumes of his ability.
Li Yifeng was flabbergasted by Shea's offer and couldn't help but stare at her.
"Princess, you shouldn't..." The Royal Guard's Leader spoke but he was interrupted by Shea.
"Are you telling me what I should do?" Asked Shea which caused the Leader to shut up.
"With the help of two million gold coins, you could buy many monsters and use them to level up. Isn't this a generous offer? You would reach level
"You gave me more reason to rob you!" Said Li Yifeng.
Princess Shea smiled and said " Well, you will not gain much as I only have little money now. You will just waste this chance".
Li Yifeng became silent. He wouldn't be lying if he said he wasn't tempted by her offer. But, this situation is extremely weird! He couldn't help but feel apprehension toward this Princess.
Ding!
--------------
The World's Goddess is angry because Shea has offered a chance for you to grow. She will curse the Black Moon Empire to suffer a horrible Fate.
The Host received 1000 Negative Points from World's Goddess.
---------------
Li Yifeng shrugged his shoulders and said " I refuse!".
He might screw a group of people to gain Negative Points. But, he will never want to cause harm to the innocent lives in the Dark Moon Empire. You might think he is a hypocrite. But, this is how he thinks.
I am the Demon King. But, I am also a human. I will screw over people but there is a line I will never cross.
Princess Shea was stunned by Li Yifeng's refusal. He refused two million Gold Coins!
-1000 Negative Points form Shea.
"Are you for real?!" Li Yifeng couldn't help but become angry at Shea. He grumpily put his sword back and walked away with a foul mood.
Princess Shea and the Royal Guards started dumbly at Li Yifeng who was getting far from them.
"Princess, Is it alright to leave him?" Asked the Leader. Princess Shea was staring at Li Yifeng's disappearing figure and said " Leave him!". She turned around and entered the carriage.
"Let's go back to the capital" said Shea. The Guards looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh and follow her order.
Li Yifeng who was walking opened his mouth and said " Goddess, Leave alone the Dark Moon Empire. I am your enemy and you shouldn't pull innocents into this."
