Chapter 531 Overlord Of The Seventh Floor
After Sofia's fight with the white slimy monster, the group continued their hunt with Aoi killing, freezing her opponent to death. Her opponent was actually a fire-type beast. A fire monster beast versus an ice-type beast would usually end in a bloody battle. Unfortunately for the fire-type beast, its opponent was a dual-type, which was ice and snow, and also a mythical beast at that.
Aoi suppressed the fire-type S-rank monster in the entire battle. The monster's flame didn't manage to melt Aoi's ice abilities. On the other hand, Fein also fought the last golden monster on the seventh floor. The golden monster was a five-tailed fox that has dual-element power... A mixture of dark attributes and sand attributes. Unfortunately for it, Fein only ended the battle in three casual slashes. He didn't even need to spend much degu energy and thought. Fein didn't even sweat from the battle.
After the last fight with the last S-rank, the group rested for three days and began to train themselves vigorously on the seventh floor. Yes, they didn't climb to the eighth floor immediately. They took the opportunity to analyze each of their battles and reviewed their weaknesses.
Fein, of course, pointed them to the points that they have to improve. By the end of the day, Sofia and others became more effective, and their movement became more efficient.
...
The sun gradually rose to the sky, it turned the dark night into a bright sunny morning. The wind carried the sand on the desert in every direction. With every blow of the wind, the sand would scatter around the desert.
In one part of the Desert. One would witness a weird thing. Seventy kilometers around it, there are a lot of monsters running around and fighting each other for food. But inside the seventy-kilometer range, in the center of it where one would see a large tent... No monster dares to even step an inch.
This is just normal. After all, it was Fein, Sofia, Voli, and Aoi in the tent. Fein made Voli deliberately leak his aura to warn the beast. Voli and Aoi's aura as a mythical beast and their S-rank quality degu energy have a certain deterrence for the monsters below S-rank. Not only that, all the monsters in the Desert had long noticed the disappearance of the aura of the five overlords on the Seventh floor.
The five S-ranks on the seventh floor that Fein and his group killed were actually recognized rulers on the whole floor. They ruled the seventh floor for hundred years with their power and put absolute dominance.
It must be said that the aura of the five overlords, which were the three S-rank common grade monsters and two S-rank golden monsters were always active in the Desert. Monsters are territorial in nature, and one of the ways they divide their territory is with the use of their aura. They would spread it to the maximum range indefinitely. And the whole area within their aura is their territory.
With the disappearance of their aura. Along with the appearance of Voli and Aoi's aura... All the Desert monsters became aware that it was they who defeated the undefeated overlords. Now, Fein and his friends actually became the master of the seventh floor for the Desert monsters without them knowing.
It was for this reason that the Desert monster didn't dare to bother the new overlords on the floor. As a spoken rule, the monsters weren't allowed to step foot within seventy kilometers of the overlords. This unspoken rule was actually going on for hundreds of years.
In the tent in the Desert. The sound of unzipping appeared. Then, when it was opened, Fein came out of it with hazy eyes and yawned. He stretched for a while before he scanned the surroundings. "It's already morning?"
Fein saw Voli and Aoi sleeping peacefully in their respective mats that he had stolen from the Revenant Kingdom.
Around him, he could see some plants flying around carried with strong air that was coming opposite direction of his line of sight. The gust of wind has a lot of dust on it. Then he raised his head, his eyes fixed on the blue sky and sun that have just set. 'It was actually yellow sun this time? This reminds me of Earth... I wonder if the time flow in this world flows similar to Earth.'
Fein's eyes became deeper. He started to feel nostalgic. As an Earthling, Fein has a strong affection for the Earth where the technology was advanced and his love for his towards his country on Earth in particular was still deep.
'Well, there's no use thinking about it now. I should just focus on my present. In this life, I have Sofia, my mother, and my sister. This life isn't bad at all...' Fein couldn't help but sigh deeply. In this world, he learned a lot of lessons and experienced pains that he hasn't experienced on Earth.
Gregory's death was one of the pain, along with Kidd's betrayal. What's more, two of his best friends were currently in big trouble. Michael was in a coma while Brick's soul was trapped by a monster. Fortunately, there's still a positive side to his life or else he would have become insane already or become a really ruthless, pragmatic cold type of person.
Fein thinks that without Sofia, his family, Voli, and his friend. Based on his personality, it wasn't impossible to walk on the dark side or the evil path. He doesn't want to admit it, but he has the tendency to become a cold, apathetic person. It was just because of the love and care he receives that he didn't become one with the power that he currently possessed.
'Environment really shapes a person.' Fein shook his head and smiled warily. "Hey, guys, wake the fucking up. It's already morning, well, at least on the seventh floor."historical
"Eh? It's already morning!?" Voli opened his eyes and looked at the sky lazily. Then he shifted his eyes to Fein with complaint. "Master, why did you wake us up? But not Sofia? Isn't this unfair?"
"Bastard, Sofia's the first one who woke up. She was not in the tent when I opened my eyes."
"Hmmm, then where did she go?" Aoi yawned and look at Fein with her crystal purple eyes.
