‘What the hell happened’ Evan thought when he saw how easily he killed a D-rank monster ‘is a D-rank monster supposed to be this weak’ Evan was shocked that he was able to sever the head of a D-rank beast with a normal sword.
Evan looked at the sword in his hand which was still shining in blue light because of his mana and noticed a very thin black layer along with the blue layer of mana.
The black layer was very thin Evan was sure that if his eyesight did not improve after he got monarch core he would not have noticed this black layer.
‘Is my attack was this powerful because of this black energy that is mixed in my mana’ Evan thought when he saw the thin black layer.
Howl!!!
“Be careful” Evan came out from his daze state after hearing the shout of Dean. When Evan looked at the other two wolves he saw one of them was already in front of him and was slashing at his neck with its front claw.
Evan was still using haste skill so he saw everything in slow motion, he lifted his sword and parry the claw of the wolf with his sword. Evan was pushed back a little because of the running momentum of the wolf.
Before the wolf can regain its balance after its failed attack Evan slashed his sword at the shoulder blade of the wolf.
Howl!!!
The wolf howled in pain when its shoulder was almost severed from the rest of its body a fountain of blood erupted from the wounded shoulder of the wolf.
“Watch out” Evan was about to attack the wolf once again when he heard George shout and without hesitation, he jumped sideways.
Just as Evan jumped sideways a green blade passed by his previous location and hit a tree that was not so far away from him.
The tree was served in two when the blade hit it, cold sweat appeared on Evan’s back when he saw this ‘I should pay more attention to my surroundings while fighting’ Evan thought when he was almost done by because of ignoring the second wolf.
“Just what the hell is going on from his aura I can clearly feel this guy is an E-rank hunter so how can he fight against these D-rank monsters like this” Dean said with a shock-filled voice.
“Hey you guys are from the same academy do you know what is going on” George asked James who was looking at Evan with his mouth wide open.
George and Dean don’t know Evan but James was well aware that Evan is the weakest student in the academy and everyone call him trash.
‘Just what happened to this guy’ James asked himself when he saw Evan taking care of D-rank monsters like he was playing with them.
‘Just a few days ago I saw how Mike and some other students were bullying him, was he pretending all this time’.
“Hey, are you listening?” James comes out from his thoughts after hearing Dean’s voice.
“I never talked to him in the academy so I don’t know about him” James did not tell them about Evan since he was also not sure what was happening here.
After evading the wind blade Evan looked at the wolf who attacked him and charged toward it with an agility that was much faster than a D-rank hunter.
Since the wind wolf was an agility-based monster it was somehow able to see Evan when he appeared before it, the wolf used its front claw and smashed it at Evan like a hammer but instead of dodging the claw, Evan used his sword to clash with the claw of wolf.
Puchi!!
When Evan’s sword which was covered in a blue layer of mana clashed with the wolf’s claw it cut it in two like a hot knife cutting the butter.
Howl!!
The wolf howled in pain and even before it can do anything Evan once again slashed his sword at the neck of the wolf. Evan wasn’t able to sever the neck of the wolf with a single attack this time but he once again slashed and severed the head of the wolf.
After killing it Evan looked at the reaming wolf who was trying to stand up but failed miserably because its shoulder was almost severed from Evan’s earlier attack.
Evan walked towards the wolf calmly and killed it with a single slash. James and others looked at Evan like they were looking at a monster.
Evan ignored them and started to look for cores, unfortunately, Evan got only one core from three wolves.
Evan dropped the core and his sword on the ground and both things suddenly disappeared after touching the ground. Evan put them inside his shadow storage.
Evan was not thinking about sharing his cores with anyone because in the details of the mission it was written that you can keep the cores of the monster that you hunted on your own.
After taking care of everything Evan calmly walked toward George and the others.
“Who are you?” Dean asked Evan when he came near them.
“Didn’t I already tell you I am an E-rank hunter Evan”
“E rank my ass even a D rank hunter can’t kill those monsters like this” George said while looking at Evan.
“I just have some skills that improve my fighting power for some time,” Evan said without explaining much.
“Oh, what kind of skill can improve your power by two ranks?” Dean asked in a sarcastic voice.
“I don’t think I have any reason to tell you guys about my skills” Evan said with an irritated voice because he was starting to feel irritated by their questions.
“Ya, you don’t have to tell us about your skills but since we are going to work as a team you should at least inform us that you can easily face a D-rank monster” Dean did not back away and continued to say.
“Oh, if an E-rank hunter came before you and say hey, I can kill D-rank monsters easily will you believe him” Evan said while rolling his eyes.
When Dean heard this he wanted to say something but nothing came out of his mouth because he knew that he would never believe in that person.
“Sigh, I am sorry I overreacted” Dean said after hearing what Evan said.
“Don’t worry I can understand and I have no intention of harming you guys in any way” Evan said while going towards the barbeque table where he was eating his lunch.
James looked at Evan while lost in his own thoughts meanwhile George and Dean were also thinking about something.
Evan did not care about them because he never thought about hiding his power from the beginning. His main purpose to come on this mission was to take a break after two years and collect some cores if possible.
If he hides his power how he will be able to collect some cores “I hope I will be able to get enough cores to advance my prime to E+ rank’ Evan thought while eating a steak.
