The big bear roared as it ran towards the big wolf."GAAAAWR!"
It swung its huge right hand, making a loud noise of "CRACK!"
However, the big wolf jumped to the side, avoiding it. Its attack landed on a tree, instead. The tree fell to the ground with a "BOOM!" sound.
The big wolf immediately ran towards the big bear, seeing its advantage and bit its shoulder.

"What the f.e.c.k? Just a normal attack can caused so much damage?!" Ryth said in disbelief as he watched the fight, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
"Wow! This is quite interesting!" Daedalus exclaimed in amazement. "Another new experience for me to witness! Ku ku ku! I am so glad that I sealed my own soul inside the [Eye of Daedalus]!"
"Oi, this is not the time to laugh," Ryth scolded, covering his face with a hand in exasperation.
Ryth turned to Hill and Llyod and said," Hill, Llyod! We will attack them once they are weakened! Just wait for my signal! And remember, all you two need to do is to support me. I will defeat them to acc.u.mulate more experience. However, should the situation get dangerous, you two have my permission to kill it, instead."
"Yes, my lord!" the both of them said in a low voice.
"Just be careful," Daedalus warned." That big wolf already know of our presence."
"Yeah, I know." Ryth nodded his head, and continued, "This will be a good chance to test my new job."
------------------
The battle went for almost 40 minutes, the big wolf"s and the big bear"s HP have already hit the 15% mark.
"Just wait for a bit more..." Ryth muttered.
The big wolf was already exhausted, the same goes for the big bear. The both of them became slower in their attacks as their stamina slowly decrease.
The big wolf pawed the big bear"s shoulder, jumping onto its back and bit its neck.
The bear swung its claw to push the wolf off his back. Once the wolf was on the ground, the bear hit the wolf"s abdomen and bit on the big wolf"s neck.

Their HP madly fell until it hits the 10% marks.
Ryth saw this opportunity and immediately yelled, "Now!"
Llyod rushed in and activated his {Heavy Swing} skill, while Hill activated his {Rapid Fire} skill.
-8073
-9723
-8812
Their HP fell madly to 3%.
Even though, the Wolf knows of their whereabouts using its keen sense of smell, it couldn"t move because the big bear was gripping its body tightly.
"GAAWRGHHH!"
"RAAAAWRGH!"
The animals screamed in pain. The two animals immediately released each other.
Just when the both of them wanted to retreat, something arrived in front of them in a flash.
With [Vengeance] on his right hand, [Ryuujin"s Will] on his left hand, and the ebony sword being hold in his mouth, The [Eye of Daedalus] turned red as Ryth ran in a speed of light.
"Stream of Light!"

-2212
With one addition of swords, the {Stream of Light} skill now was able to dealt 18 slashes. The total damage each of the monsters received was over 11500! The big wolf and the big bear were swinging their claws towards Ryth, but with the help of the [Eye of Daedalus] mana tracer mode, and the animals" status that were in weak state due to exhaustion, not to mention the slow effect from [Vengeance], Ryth could easily avoided their attacks as he activated his skills.
{Cut}!
{Stab}!
{Whirlwind}!
After the {Whirlwind} skill ended, Ryth jumped towards the wolf as he activated another skill.
{Half Moon}!
-2523
The text appeared above the big bear"s head, as its huge body fell to the ground.
+EXP 500.000
Golden light gushed from Ryth"s body as a sign of level up. But he paid no heed to it as he turned his attention towards the big wolf. He lifted [Ryuujin"s Will] towards it.
Blue lightnings covered the katana and suddenly, Ryth disappeared in thin air.
{Lightning Piercer}!
"WUSH!"
The lightning katana pierced through the big wolf"s body as it split in half.
Blood gushed out from its body, but Ryth didn"t get any bloodstains on him since he moved too fast.
+EXP 480.000
"Ku ku ku! That was such an intense battle! It"s so thrilling!" Daedalus shouted in delight.
Ryth grinned in happiness as he looked down at his winnings. "Well, thanks to the support of Hill and Llyod, it was pretty easy."
His exp bar rose to 70%. Now he is already level 33. He sighed in relief as he noted his level.
"Fuh... I haven"t even use the special skills of the {Troika Cla.s.s} and yet I am already this strong with just the addition of one more sword." Thought Ryth in bemus.e.m.e.nt. "I will try and use them later."
"Are you okay, my lord?!" Llyod and Hill asked as they ran towards him.
"Yeah, I feel great," Ryth nodded as he gave a thumbs-up. "This has been a good experience for me."
Llyod grabbed both of Ryth"s shoulders, disbelief expression in his face. He did not realized that he might have shown discourtesy towards his master when he did this. "My Lord! What was that earlier? Did you just mastered the 3 swords style??" he asked in shock.
Hill was also stunned in silence. His rarely seen shocked expression also in his face.
Ryth just laughed and said, "I"ll loot the monsters first, you guys can go rest."
"No, no, my lord," Hill refused. "We did nothing but only dealt some damages to the two of them."
Hill then pointed at the corpses of the two animals. "We will help you with the loot."
Ryth could only sigh and nodded, "Okay."
Llyod and Hill started gathering the loots from the bear.
Ryth, on the other hand, haven"t started yet and instead, he talked to Daedalus. "Open the Status panel for me."
"Sure!"

"Ohh, that"s good. Daedalus, a.s.sign 4 of the free points to STR and the other one to AGI."
"Consider it done!" replied Daedalus.
Daedalus added the free points as another notification appeared on his right corner of interface.
"AGILITY points are already over 50. You"ve unlocked a new skill."
"Oh?! I almost forgot about this! Now I have a defensive and offensive skill in one!" Ryth thought to himself, feeling excited.
Ryth told Daedalus to open his skill panel.

"h.e.l.l yeah! Haha!" Ryth laughed, pumping his fist in the air.
Hill and Llyod turned their heads towards Ryth and asked, "What happened, my lord? A good loot?"
"Haha, don"t mind me." Ryth waved his right hand.
Ryth started checking the big wolf"s corpse but he could only find its fangs, fur and claws. Aside from that, no other loot had caught his attention, but he stored all of them in his inventory anyways. This is because most of it could be sold later.
The big bear was the same. Hill and Llyod could only find its fangs, fur and claws that could be considered as good loots. The other was just second rate items. Similarly, Ryth also stored all of it as well to be sold later.
After that, Ryth and his team began to hunt other animals, but they were weaker than the big wolf and big bear, as their level was only at level 35.
They continued to hunt monsters until afternoon.
With the help of both Llyod and Hill, Ryth finally reached up to level 36. A whole 3 level increase.
His status was boosted further. Ryth only looked for a second before closing the status panel.
As for the animal loots, Ryth placed then inside his inventory. His inventory was almost full. It was then he decided to give some of the loot to the dark elf people later to make some s.p.a.ce for his inventory.
Ryth said to his teammates, "Lets call it a day, time to go back."
"Yes!"
----------------------
They walked back to the village, and went straight to the chief House.
They met up with Fenar and gave him some of their loots. Although, at first Fenar refused to accept it, but the persistent Ryth made him surrender and accept all of the items that Ryth gave to them.
Now that the inventory had much more s.p.a.ce, Ryth could store more other precious items later if he encountered some more animals/monsters in the future.
Of course, he didn"t give all of the worthless items to Fenar. Those, he will keep it to be sold later in the city"s adventurers guild or merchants.
Ryth and his teammates next went to their a.s.signed house, took a bath and ate their dinner. After that Ryth went straight to his room and slept.
-----------------
The next morning, after Ryth had done all of his daily morning"s things, someone knocked on their door.
Llyod opened the door and saw a guard on the other side.
The guard immediately bowed down and said,"Mr. Llyod, Mr. Myrad, Mr. Hill! Our chief said that he has something for Mr. Myrad and he wants you to come to his house whenever you are ready."
"Something for me?" this piqued Ryth"s interest a bit.
"Yes." The guard nodded his head.
"Okay, I will be there in a few minutes."
"I will wait for you." The guard smiled.
"Come in then and wait inside," Llyod invited.
"No need, I will wait outside."
Seeing the guard have no interest to wait inside, Llyod replied, "Okay, then. We will be ready in a couple of minutes."
