The Birth of the Demon Sword

Magic Bianatang

Chapter 17 - 17. Magical Beast

"Eh?"

Noah was shocked, then pleased.

Only now did he examine his body. His 7 acupoints where absorbing the "Breath" at full speed and the boundary he felt last night disappeared. His body felt light but sturdy and full of strength. She also seems to have a better perception of the "Breath" inside her body, as it feels a little empty.

'Now that I think about it, I have never run so fast in my life and my vision seems to have improved. Logically speaking, my other senses should have improved as well.'

He continued to stare at his dirty body with curious eyes. He had to stop because his Master was scolding him.

"What are you doing still here? Take a shower, you stink!"

William pointed to a door at the beginning of the corridor while holding his nose with his other hand.

Noah happily bowed and rushed through the door. Inside the room, there was a large basin that Noah allegedly used as a bathtub and several buckets of water.

He washed himself carefully and then took the white kimono from the pile in the corner of the room. When he came out, his master was already waiting for him in the corridor. He was wearing a dark green tight sports suit with a sword veiled on his back.

"Since you wake me up, you should come with me. I have to take some special potions for the mission, the only problem is a group of four-eyed wolves recently made a place where the potions were found as their lair. magical beasts are only rank 1 and even of a lower level so you should be able to easily defeat them even if their number is around 15. I can do it myself but it's time you have an actual fight and you can even get used to your new body since you did. Go to your room to retrieve your sword and meet me at the main gate of the defensive wall."

Noah immediately stirred and almost forgot to bow as he was about to leave.

He happily ran back to his building to retrieve the two swords hidden in his room and since he did not have a scabbard for them, he simply tied it around his waist with a piece of the blanket.

'Fight to the death! This was completely different from a simple debate with Master. And this body is amazing, I did nothing but run today but I still don't sweat. Even the "Breath" stored in my body increased, right now I should be able to attack with it at least seven times just by using the one in my hand!'

The advantages of a rank 1 body are already proven with just a few hours of food.

'I wonder how much time I have to pass before I can get through the second cycle.'

The sudden increase in strength made Noah completely ignore the pain and danger of the treatment, leaving within him only an endless desire to become stronger.

When he arrived at the main gate of the Balvan house he found William waiting for him with a sleepy face, aside from his previous clothes he had a leather bag in his hand.

Seeing the way Noah shabbyly tied his sword, he could not help but shake his head.

"Have you forgotten to steal the sword sheath from the guard last time?"

Slightly mocking him, he threw the leather bag at his disciple's feet.

Noah looked inside the bag and was surprised to see two short sheaths inside, with a leather belt that could hold him.

"He really thought of that too."

She could not help but smile when she saw how much her Master cared for her.

He hurriedly replaced his equipment with the one in the bag.

William nodded at his figure now that although he was still a child, it was a little more akin to a warrior.

No teacher likes a shabby student because his appearance will reflect the image of his master.

"Follow me, we'll run to the wolf's den and take care of them."

Noah was a little surprised.

"Are we not carrying horses?"

Horses are a major form of travel in this seemingly medieval world and a stable is located just before the main gate to provide its services more quickly.

“You are a cultivator now, even if the weak. Your body broke through rank 1, and even if it wasn't as fast as a horse, it could still run quite fast. Plus you seem to have forgotten that we are going to fight against magical beasts, normal horses can only run when they see them. Come on, I'll explain things in more detail as we run."

William came out of the gate and started running with Noah trying to follow him in a hurry.

This was the first time in his life Noah left the mansion and he could not help but look around curiously and the green fields around him, on some mountains in the distance and in the Evergreen forest.

William sees his behavior and grunts internally, increasing his speed to force Noah to focus on following him.

'You're going to fight for the first time and instead of fidgeting you're wasting your time looking around, I guess he's really a kid.'

Noah and William drove into the forest 3 days away on horseback.

After about 15 minutes of running, when the mansion was some distance away from them, William began to explain.

“The four-eyed wolf is a 3-meter-long magical beast, generally having pale yellow fur and, as the name suggests, having a pair of eyes on each side of its head. His attack consisted of clawing and biting like any other wolf, and a mental shockwave momentarily startled his prey. With the steadiness of your mind, standing tall against the attack is a walk in the park so don't worry too much about it.

Noah lowered his head slightly to cover his complicated expression.

The reason for that was that no matter what level of mental energy his Master thought he had, he would always have more.

'I know I can trust him but there really is no way to explain the matter of transmigration to him. I'll let him think of me as a hard worker and with great ability in it.'

William did not notice the change in expression in his disciple and continued his explanation.

“Before, I said that the four-eyed wolf was a rank 1 magical beast so I thought it was time to explain the rank of the magical beast. It is humans who rank animal species based on their strongest attributes. Because for example, a four-eyed wolf had a rank 1 body but its mental attack was below that threshold, so their rank 1 species was given by their bodies."

Noah was very interested in this explanation part because he could never read anything more specific about the cultivation world due to the fact that all the books about it were in the inner circle library.

He would ask the rank of the dragon that attacked 10 years ago as William continued to speak.

"However, Heaven and Earth are fair and since humans have higher intelligence and can create techniques to better express their strength, magical beasts have an easier growth process. In addition to absorbing the "Breath" naturally, they can become stronger by eating other living things to the fullest. "Breath" is like a magical beast or a cultivator. This leads to innate aggression in their behavior and often leads to cannibalism occurring within their group."

Seriate...
