Chp.4 Syclla Forest



"But isn't that still dangerous? I heard that the two previous monsters Nathan conquered had the ability to tear apart prey with teeth that were about the size of an adult's index finger."


"You can't forbid Xernathan's mother to worry about a child her age, can you?"


The woman's words made Xernathan's mother's eyes widen for a moment. He knew his son was very small.


But looking at the nature of Xernathan who is like an adult makes the woman sometimes forget the real age of her own child who is not even seven years old.


Now when he was reminded of the age of his son from others made him realize and his heart began to be afraid to let Xernathan hunt monsters.


"really? that scary?"


"Did you forget? that Rainer used to do a lot of similar actions to his son today."


Mother Xernathan's eyes glowed for two seconds as she called out her husband's name.


His father Xernathan was a migrant on the island of Cyclops, while his mother was a native of the people here, they both knew each other since childhood.


Xernathan's mother knew exactly what her husband had done when they were little. Her husband's actions used to be no less heroic than what their son is doing today.


Xernathan himself has often heard stories about his father from others. But he did not really understand the reason why his father dared to do it at an age that was even said to have just separated from toddlers.

Xernathan's eyes glowed for a few seconds as he enthusiastically looked at the male deer monster before him. If the monster is over a hundred years old.


"Hey, why don't you run? and even look at me like this?" Xernathan was astonished, for he had previously hidden for a long time behind a tree not far from this deer monster.


When he believes that the deer monster before him is alone, there are no other monster friends, Xernathan solidifies the move intending to ambush or even chase this deer.


But Xernathan had not had time to make his attack mean, just that the boy did one jumping movement, the deer immediately looked into his eyes sharp.


Not showing the slightest fear to Xernathan. Instead the deer showed a great fighting aura to intimidate the humans before him.


"Woii. woii.. woii what do you mean?" Xernathan was aghast and a huge question mark appeared on the monster before him.


This is the first time Xernathan has tried to capture a land monster. In his previous life Xernathan had hunted many monsters like this. Even Xernathan had hunted monsters over five hundred years old several times in his first life.


Xernathan knew that this deer monster before him was the weakest land monster among the other land monsters.


But seeing the deer standing looking at him with a fighting aura and not flinching even a glare at the human before him, Xernathan certainly hesitated.


Especially after being seen closely the deer monster was at least more than four meters tall with fangs measuring more than ten centimeters and horns that were the same height as Xernathan's current body.


"It's like you should have run to see me"


"Let me chase you"


"I'm human, you have to be lar-.." Xernathan could not finish his words.


Seeing the reaction of the deer monster, Xernathan ran away as fast as he could.


"Woii. woii.." Xernathan ran away as fast as he could evade the deer monster that ran after him.


But no one answered that request. Xernathan is now far west of the island of Cyclops, the forest of death, the forest of Syclla.


The distance of the nearest village from the forest where he was hunting was dozens of kilometers.


No one would be able to hear the cry of the little boy from this distance.


'No I don't want to die this fast..'


Xernathan clenched his hands as if in disbelief as he continued running indeterminate towards her. He did not even dare to waste a few seconds to look back.


The only thing that made him know that the deer monster was still chasing him was a loud snort coming out of the deer monster's nose that sounded more like a bison or a bull.


'How is this..' Xernathan kept spinning his brain to get the best solution in a situation like this. Xernathan's brain was forced to work fast, not inferior to his current run.


As the deer monster began to get closer to him. Xernathan maneuvered deftly to the side and made him avoid the deer monster attack.


"Haha.the ugly deer awfully fell" Xernathan shouted at the deer that slammed a few meters from their previous chase lane.


Xernathan's sudden movements made the deer lose control of his body. What is loved from the deer is its action that is too spontaneous to make his body lose balance and slammed on the ground.


"You are too stupid ugly deer" Xernathan continued to berate the deer that looked troubled standing up.


Although the child's breathing seemed disjointed, but he did not want to stop to mock and berate the monster who was now back trying to chase after him.


The body of the deer monster is now muddy and full of small injuries in half of his body, seen also a little blood flowing blue out of his injured skin.


The deer was already standing and staring intently at Xernathan who was peeking behind the tree. Xernathan lured the deer back to chase him because he thought of an idea to make the deer die, given the previous incident.


'Good.must be faster, now let's increase our running speed..' Xernathan this time looked calmer running and dodging the deer monster behind him.


hnggh.. The deer monster snored violently and galloped in pursuit of Xernathan increasingly blindly. Until his nose like to emit smoke and release transparent colored mucus.


"Here we go.." Xernathan seizes the opportunity when he sees a tree in front of him.


The boy quickly maneuvered sharply to the side towards the back of the tree. The deer once again slammed into the ground.


This time Xernathan, who ran towards the deer monster, did not give the deer a chance to get up.


Xernathan straightened his finger and strengthened it to resemble a spear.


With a single puncture in the chest area located in the area************* soft elk front leg, Xernathan managed to tear the skin, Xernathan said, penetrated the heart and made the deer monster die.


"Heii. heii. I know you're a hundred-year-old deer monster but don't think you can kill me." Xernathan grinned at the monster who was thrashing his life before him.


'But why didn't he run away when he saw me?' Inner Xernathan asked, wondering why the deer monster who usually prefers to run away rather than having to face directly with the human, instead stood up straight and even chased after it blindly.


Without Xernathan noticing his body was now very small. It doesn't seem to have the slightest killing potential. Moreover, the killing aura coming out of his body was very little and would not feel intimidating to his opponent at all.


In contrast to his body in his previous life which had a fairly large killing aura and his fearsome war for even deer monsters.
