Although Nathan needed more time and effort to do so, he could actually defeat them one by one. He became more enthusiastic after the steps he took were quite successful.

He leaped back quickly, dodging the attacks of the other three Wild Boars that were rushing toward him.

If the golem could show expression, it would be showing a huge smile on its face, an obvious indicator that he was enjoying the fight immensely.

"Accel!" He shouted the Acceleration skill that he had gotten used to, even though he didn't get any effect from it.

Nathan managed to dodge the Wild Boar's attack from the front. He jumped on top of the Wild Boar, dodging another attack from the other wild boar.

Two Wild Boars collided. Their bodies staggered and stumbled wildly to the ground.

Nathan jumped up and down in the air quickly. He threw a slash of his sword right into the neck of one of the Wild Boars. He twisted the sword to create a bigger impact.

Nathan drew his sword when another boar came running over.

He jumped quickly in another direction.

"Piufh..." He really enjoyed the fight.

After a few minutes of fighting, Nathan finally managed to end it with a big win. He was even able to gain one level while doing so.

Nathan threw his body on the ground, among the grass. He felt a sense of euphoria and a weird sensation in the absence of a wildly beating heart after such an intense fight.

Nathan closed his eyes. Luckily, the golem still had eyelids or, rather, a feature to darken its view.historical

The golem's body didn't feel tired, but it was clear that his mental strength was drained from just that fight.

After a few minutes, he opened his eyes. The light of the sun shining brightly that afternoon didn't disturb his vision in the slightest with his golem's eyes. At that very moment, he saw a bird flying high above him, flying in circles as if watching its prey.

Luna appeared near him, hovering low, also looking up at the sky.

"Master Nathan, it's Marco's spirit beast."

"Yes, and I'm sure they're watching me from somewhere." He answered.

He then raised his body, immediately stood up, and walked around among the monster carcasses. He cleaved their chests and searched for the Monster Cores they had left behind.

Nathan only found two of them, even after killing seven monsters.

"The percentage of these monsters leaving the Monster Core is 50%, right, Luna?" He turned to Luna.

Luna nodded quickly and smiled. "Yes, Master. But you also have to remember that you previously got a Monster Soul Stone which has an even smaller chance than that, right?" She grinned.

Nathan turned his head in all directions, considering his options as he pondered on where else he should go hunting more monsters.

"Master Nathan, what are you going to do with Zander and Marco? Are you just going to hunt until they come to you?"

Nathan nodded. "In this situation, if they really wanted to kill me, they would have come and attacked this golem. However, just as I thought, they weren't stupid. They won't gain anything by attacking this golem. They still need to find out where my real body is."

Realizing that he couldn't get enough information to decide where he should go, Nathan started walking wherever his instincts took him.

"Skill Creation System." He muttered.

Nathan skimmed through the information in his system, analyzing the next steps he wanted to take.

"Dimensional Traveler?" He was silent for a moment as his mind raced.

"If I can create one more skill using this class, I'll get one skill slot as a bonus. I wonder what skill I should make from within this class that could increase my combat strength?"

Nathan walked toward the row of tall trees. He quickened his pace and ran between the trees with his golem body.

"Luna, why did I get injured when using the Emergency Escape skill? What element did I not have that caused that to happen?"

Luna floated in front of Nathan, still sitting in her Crescent Moon. "Are you ready for some info dumps about elements, Master?"

Nathan turned to Luna. "Info dumps? Are elements that complex to explain?"

Luna just chuckled and nodded.

"Okay, then, I'm ready. Here we go, info dumps!"

Luna nodded. "So, there are four basic elements in nature: Earth, water, air, and fire. Every awakened person has an affinity with one of the existing basic elements. Some even have an affinity for more than one element. So far, can it be understood?"

Nathan nodded. "It's still pretty easy to understand. And, what I wanted to ask was, is it possible for someone to unlock an affinity for an additional element if, for example, he initially only had affinity for one element?"

Luna adjusted the position of the round glasses that appeared on her face. "If we talk about basic elements, one still has the possibility to unlock affinity for other elements, although the process will be very long and require strenuous practice. Because of this reason, the privilege you have here, by having a max affinity for the four basic elements, is truly a great blessing, Master." Luna smiled widely.

"I don't deny that. I'm truly grateful to have a blessing of this magnitude, along with the other things that follow. Like, the god slayer thing, and the fact that other apostles might hunt me, and weirdos like Zander that would come in hordes to bring me an endless source of trouble." Nathan said loudly, at the same time sarcastic about what he got.

Luna chuckled at Nathan's words, and then she continued. "There are two more basic elements that need special requirements to acquire them. Namely, Dark and Light elements."

"Dark? Is this related to the Necromancer class you talked about, Luna? I've heard about those two elements a lot but don't really understand much of it." Nathan said.

"In short, the dark element can only be acquired by making a contract with the entity that owns the element. For example, demons, or even a small number of spirit beasts, have this kind of element. Meanwhile, for Light, this is an element that's closely related to gods and sacred entities. In short, Light elements can only be acquired with the gods' blessings or by contracting with the entity that owns the related element."

Nathan was silent for a while, trying to digest Luna's long explanation. He nodded slowly, feeling that he understood enough.

"Okay, so to put it simply, dark from demons and light from god? It seems the topic of elements is quite broad too, huh?" Nathan faced Luna.

Luna chuckled in response to Nathan's words. "Therefore, the topic of elements is one of the subjects that will also be studied carefully in the Hunter Academy, Master."

"Interesting, and wouldn't it be better if I learned it from you first, Luna?"

"I think so..." Luna smiled widely.

"Okay, please continue, Luna."

"All right... Each Element has another level above it. For example, Earth has advanced elements of Gravity, Metal, etc. If one was deeply immersed in one element, one would gain an affinity to a level higher than their basic element. Likewise, if they have an affinity for two basic elements. For example, Water and Earth will produce Mud, Wood, Growth, and Forest. And all sorts of other combinations have a wide range of possibilities."

Nathan nodded slowly. "And with the Golem Creation skill that I have, I can explore deeper and wider about the various possible golems I can create. Is that right?"

"Hummu, hummu.."

"Interesting, interesting.. I have a lot to learn. Okay, Luna, the last question, what about Dimensional Traveler or Time and Space elements? Is that also an advanced element or a combination of basic elements for those elements?"

"Okay," Luna answered. "Besides the basic elements, there is also one type of element called the Ancient Element. These ancient elements have potential far from all existing basic or advanced elements. Examples of ancient elements are Revive, Time, Space, Reality, etc."

"Reality? Is this related to the blessing of Pride?"

Luna nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes... The skill that the holder of the blessing of pride possesses is a form of an ancient element, the Reality element."

Nathan was silent for a moment, amazed by the knowledge he had just received.

"One blessing with an ancient element. Against me with two blessings, and?" Nathan paused, trying to think.

"These blessings sure have extremely unlimited potential." Nathan turned to Luna. "See, I even got the ridiculous task of killing gods."

Luna chuckled at Nathan's words.

"Let's go, Luna. We don't have time to relax." He said enthusiastically.

He had to quickly clear the dungeon and deal with the problems he was facing. There were many things he wanted to explore.
