Chapter 37 A Mutated Monster



Waking up, Zick opened the window of his room and looked outside, it was still dark with no sign of the sun rising. He had only slept for 3 hours or so.

\'I shouldn\'t bother sleeping for a while, it would save me a little time.\'

Having this thought, he walked out of his room and went to the stable. The horse he brought was taken care of by the groom of the inn, Zick had to pay extra money for the maintenance of his horse.

Taking the horse out of the stable, Zick got up on it. Right now, he wore one of the leather armour he just brought. With the simple blue leather armour, Zick looked a lot more like an adventurer or mercenary. He couldn\'t find full plate armour in the city as the armour shop didn\'t have it.

Even though being armed is a necessity in this world, metal plate armour is ridiculously expensive.

\'If a store like that actually sold metal plate armour, the owner would be out of his mind\'

Urging the horse forward with its reign, Zick followed the way he remembered beforehand in his head. It was the opposite direction from where he had entered the city.

There another similar fort stood, the guard who was in the night shift woke up from his slumber hearing the sound of the horse heading towards him.

Stopping right in front of the guard, Zick threw the Melvix family crest to him. Looking at the crest, the guard was surprised.

"Please wait a second"

The guard\'s voice was a little husky as he just woke up. He entered the door beside the gate of the fort, it looked like a workshop.

"What...? it is still in the middle of the night...."

"There\'s an important thing you need to check, sir Govis..."

Zick could hear the conversation between the guard and the mage named Govis easily. Waiting for them to finish checking the crest, Zick looked at the sky. Unlike the battlefield, there was no black cloud covering the sky. The sky was filled with stars, the red moon shone brightly illuminating the dark city.

Reminiscing the sky that he hasn\'t seen for a long time, Zick sensed the guard heading towards him.

"Sir, we have checked the crest, you can pass through the fort"

Saying this the guard opened up the gate for Zick to pass through.

NEIGHHHH!

The horse galloped at full speed following the track. According to the map there must be another city in some distance to the Destis city, The city name is heiver.

Riding the horse, Zick\'s leather armour flutter from the wind, he could feel the cold wind brushing past his skin but still it wouldn\'t effect him in anyway. His body had already gotten strong enough to resist a lot of thing naturally.

It wasn\'t very far from the place where Zick was so he reached there in three hours.

Zick entered the city and headed towards the biggest merchant shop in it.

"Welcome."

There was still a receptionist lady sitting in the chair even though it\'s the middle of the night.

"What might you need sir?"

The receptionist did not show any flaw in her appearance but still Zick found her eyes shaking a little from his presence.

"I want to sell my horse"

Stating what he wanted to do, Zick passed over the horse to the receptionist lady.

The receptionist\'s eyes widened looking at the war horse, she could tell that it was trained and was maintained very well. After thinking for a while she said a prize to Zick.

"10 gold coins"

"okay and Give me five high grade stamina potions"

"yes sir"

Zick put the 10 gold coin in his space ring and used the crest of the Mrlvix family to pay instead.

Taking out five green potions from the shelf, the receptionist handed it over to Zick. Taking the potions, he left the city and started running towards the forest in the distance.

Now that Zick planned to travel through the forest instead of going through the trails, a horse would just get in the way and he was actually confident in running faster than a horse.

Dust rose as Zick ran towards the forest, he wasn\'t using magic right now just with his body strength he ran faster than a horse.

A dense forest enters his sight, it shined dimly because of the sun that is appearing in the horizon. Entering it, Zick started walking at a fast pace.

Before even 10 minutes passed by, Zick encountered a group of goblins.

khrrrrgh!

Zick already knew about its strength after fighting it once before.

\'They are just weakling\'

That was the assessment Zick made of the goblins. The goblins flinched, feeling Zick\'s black mana, Zick had stopped trying to suppress his mana and let it spread to the surrounding area.

Picking up some of the stones in the ground, Zich placed one of the stones in his left hand and secured it on his middle finger with his thumb as if he was going to flick it.

SWISH!

It felt like a childish gesture, but when it was done by Zick. The stone flicked by him flew at an unbelievable speed and hit correctly at the centre of the goblin face. The goblin head directly blew up coming in contact with the stone and green blood flowed out.

FLICK! FLICK! FLICK!

Not wasting his time, Zick flicked the stones at the head of the goblins, and in no time all of their heads were blown up. Picking more stones from the ground, he put it within his space ring.

After that, he met more monsters along the way. Most of the monster\'s heads exploded at the stones that Zich jokingly flicked, and for those that didn\'t die against stones, Zich easily cut them apart with his sword.

The weak monster like goblin appeared lesser as they would run away sensing Zick\'s black mana. The monster relies on their instinct more than anyone else so it was an expected action to Zick.

Killing the orcs and ogre which appeared with his sword, Zick cleaned his sword with the leafs plucked from the trees around him.

Zick took out the map and checked his current location.

\'It would take another four days to reach the three peak mountain....\'

After looking at his location, Zick started travelling at a faster pace.

After a few hours,

GRRRR!

He could see a large monster entering his view, it looked like a more violent version of the ogre, it came from between the trees. It was already in the middle of the day so Zick could see the monster\'s appearance clearly.

Its fangs were larger and sharper than the ogre that Zick met a while ago, its black skin just made it look uglier and it had a club in its hand which was made of rock. Its height reached three metres.

\'A mutated monster....\'

Zick knew about monsters like this, they mutated for various reasons. It might be for the unique state of the place they stay or it can also be like this from the day it was born.

GRRRRR!

Lifting the club which was half the size of its body, it swung it with its ugly black muscle bulging.

SWISH!

Feeling the bloodlust behind that attack, Zick knew that it had killed a lot of people. He dodged it, jumping backwards nimbly.

"hahaha!"

Zick didn\'t hide how he felt, he showed his bloodlust that he had refined by staying in the battlefield for two years with a smirk on his face.

The black ogre flinched, feeling Zick\'s bloodlust. Its  instinct told it to retreat, but Zick didn\'t give it a chance to do that.

His black mana covered his body, Zick started using mana harmonisation without hesitation.

Not holding back anymore, Zick dashed towards the black ogre. Not being able to react quickly to Zick\'s sudden momentum, it could only use its free hand to guard its face.

"Heh"

Zick chuckled at the black ogre\'s action, in the end a monster is a monster. it wasn\'t intelligent enough to think about the flaw of the action it did.

Zick circulated mana into his sword and directly cut off its hand.

SPLASH!

GRRRR!!!

The black ogre screamed, feeling the pain of getting its hand cut off.

It made a very big mistake, bringing its hand to cover its face had made it blind to Zick\'s action so it wasn\'t able to react at all to Zick\'s attack.

Zick didn\'t waste his time and cut off the ogre\'s head who was writhing in pain. The ogre had red blood unlike its black skin.

Zick made sure to not let any blood fall upon him.

\'I didn\'t expect there would be a mutated monster here....\'

Cleaning his sword, Zick continued travelling leaving the dead body of the black ogre just like that. The monster around here would just eat it after he leaves the area.
