[You have killed a Tier 1 Mid-Order Black boar.]"Well that was a guy job I suppose." Michael suddenly commented under the tense atmosphere. The twins puffed their chest as they praised each other.
"Xiao Che, bring the boar here so we will slice it up."
"Aye."
*Slash* *Slash* *Splurt*
"Ugh, f*cking intestines."
"Stop complaining Che"
"Shut up Michael, lucky for you, it"s not you who got hit by the disgusting thing."
"Heh, heh."
"Hey, Yao instead of standing there look at the tree like a dumb idiot, go get some straight-ish tree branches."
"Fine."
4 Minutes later they had dismantled the entirety of the boar leaving only the bones throwable, the skin take-homable (well I tried) and the beast core usable.
"What we need now is fire."
"David, try your shock skill and see if it would work."
[Shock]
"AAAAAAAAAH, b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.lMAN, HIT the G.o.d d.a.m.n wood, not me."
"I DID HIT IT AND IT WAS ATTRACTED TO YOU METAL ARMOR DIMWIT."
"F*ck this armor."
*Thud*
"Might as Well try that again."
[Shock]
"AAAAAAAAAARGH."
An Ear-piercing Shriek resounded in the forest.
An hour later after they had eaten their lunch they had arrived at the highway of the city.
"Xiao Che, Xiao Yao remember to be attentive and be careful because a little mishap can let a bad event happen or even worse. Also, When you save dem people let them do things like bringing water bottles or Preserved food like Canned Goods and IF you can find some Crystal Drops, Don"t open it yet bring it here lest it might give you a large and heavy object." David reminded the twins as they stopped talking as listened properly before nodding and went their way.
"Let me ask you this, What can make people obedient inside a territory? Rules, Authority or Strength?"

"I think Rules and Authority."
"Yes, that"s what makes people stay their hand in society, doesn"t it? BUT What use have Rules and Authority without Strength to back it up?"
"Ah, now I get it."
"However, All Rules and Authority are useless in front of absolute strength."
"Understood."
For the first 10 minutes of their walk, David lectured Michael about the apocalyptic world like Kill or be Killed, Eat or be Eaten. Michael constantly nods and affirm yet there was a glimmer of doubt in his eyes as well as Fear. They heard a clanking noise on Xiao Che and Xiao Yao"s side And in the meantime, they were having a hard time because they had encountered a mutated rat-like creature.
David and Michael continued their search for living people but David suddenly heard a noise which is very disturbing and asked Michael to go on top of a building and stay there.
He went to the alley where the noise was coming from, but it was dark, very dark. He then fired a Magic Missile which lighted the way for a while and then it suddenly hit a shadow and showed a -16 Damage Mark. As a response, he immediately backed up and used Identification on the target.

"What, A shadow warrior? It"s too early for them to arrive" David exclaimed as he organized his memories on where has he heard of this Species.
"Oh f.u.c.k, the Shadow realm already entered the mortal world? Ah s.h.i.+t, here we go again." David thought as he continued to Rapidly fire every spell in his a.r.s.enal since the shadow warriors can only move in the shadows.

-38
-16
Suddenly the shadow moved as it seeped out of the shadow and ran toward him. "What? This Shadow Warrior can go outside the shadow? Only Shadow Knights above can go outside the shadow without getting themselves killed instantly." David cursed as he remembered that there was an additional piece of information beside its species name.
Species: Shadow Warrior (Royal Lineage)
"How come the royal lineage of the shadow world entered the mortal realm before their soldiers did, the leader of the shadow would not allow a single shadow enter the world how much more those of a royal lineage. A patrol should have entered the mortal realm since higher-ranked shadows can"t enter the world right now."
The Royal shadow disappeared from its place as it used its Fleeting shadow skill, and it arrived at the shadow of David and was followed by a Fist attack infused with shadow power but David had quickly reacted and blocked the attack but the power behind the attack shoved him 3 meters away.
-17.5
"f.u.c.k, That took off a quite portion of my health." David Cursed as he continued to talk while shouting. "Michael, come help me over here, the enemy has high attack damage so don"t get hit, try to hide as much as you can to sneak attack this guy."
Michael who heard his friend"s voice, immediately ran toward the shadow while activating his stealth ability and disappearing from plain sight.
David who saw Michael going stealth immediately backed off as he cast his [Water Ball] skill as well as Shock, dealing a total of 52 damage and luckily the paralyze effect had triggered thus giving him additional time to cast Thunder wave.
A Magic circle composed of runes materialized at the back of David and when the Thunder wave had finished casting, a yellow thunder came out of Magic Circle, it had immediately shot toward the Shadow, However, after it had continued to paralyze the Shadow, a burst of berserk aura came out of the shadow, It Was At This Moment He Knew he fuc-, Michael arrived at the back of the shadow at the same time, a RED colored number arrived at the top of its head.
-40
Both David and Michael knew that the shadow isn"t dead yet, so they continued to attack the shadow till its remaining 40 hp got its 4 removed.
When the shadow died, it had dematerialized as it had spread black particles, there were 4 items on the floor where the Shadow had died. Two looked like a Token, and the other looked like a blueprint and the last one was a dagger.
David looked at the Token that had a crown in the middle with a grin on his face, a panel appeared in his mind but he did not use his identification skill.
