Chapter 1269: Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 18

Chapter 1268

(Unedited)

…

A figure caught the silver-foil-covered meat before it could even land on the ground.

The speed of that person is too fast that it caught everyone off guard.

When Xin Ja saw that guy, he was a bit stunned. He never expected the person to be on par with regard to speed with his master, Master Wang.

"A D-rank awakened…" he thought as he looks at the guy calmly.

"This guy should be the one protecting our group…" Xin Ja then watches the guy as he carefully opened the silver foil.

The guy then takes a sniff of the meat and then showed a delighted smile.

"This smells good… It has that roasted pork smell on it and more… Haha… I never thought that demonized meat could be cooked this way… Good… good…" the guy then took a bite and smiled as he began to enjoy the meat.

Xin Ja smiled and then also begin eating his meal.

The rest who saw this also curiously take small bites, but soon began to devour the meat wrapped by the silver foil.

How could Xin Ja not know how to prepare beast meat that is filled with chaotic Ki? He has eaten it when he was hunting in the forest outside of Ogden town.

Seeing the people enjoying the meal, Lance Grim is glaring at everyone and then sits on the side as he closes his eyes to sleep.

After the meal, that D-rank guy walked beside Xin Ja and then patted his shoulder.

"You're good… If the people knew that demonized beasts could be eaten… and that they tasted this great, it would cause a huge commotion in the city… This could actually be a good business, you know…" the man said showing a faint smile on his face.

The guy looks like he is in his late 30s, has a well-trimmed goatee, and has a pair of clear blue eyes. One could say that he looks handsome with his red hair.

"I'm France Roye…" he introduced and then extended his hand.

"Adam… Adam Summers…" Xin Ja followed suit at also extended his right hand.

France Roye shakes Xin Ja's hand while his other hand patted his shoulder.

"What do you think of my proposal? We create a business venture… let's call it… Rare meat delicacy…" he showed a wide smile.

"If you decide, just look for me in the union… I tell you, this idea would be great!" France Roye said while walking back to his post.

Xin Ja just shakes his head with a smile on his face.

Actually, what the guy said is a bit tempting. If he could make the pans that could cook the dishes prepare with demonized meat, then cooking would become easy. But the problem is backstabbing.

Then a faint smile appears on his face. There is actually a way around that. He did not have to worry about anything. He could just trust the guy for now, and when the business starts, he would observe if he truly is a trustworthy person.

While thinking thus far, Xin Ja climb up a tree and then leaned on one of the branches.

Instead of sleeping, he decided to absorb the chaotic Ki in the air. Although it is not that plenty, it is enough to replenish the Ki he has used while cooking the dish.

Meanwhile, Lance Grim who is sleeping slowly opens his eyes and then glared in Xin Ja's direction. When he saw that Xin Ja is actually meditating instead of sleeping, he showed a deep frown on his face.

The guy is getting more mysterious every minute and it annoyed him further.

"I'll prove to you tomorrow that you are nothing but a lowly F-rank trash." He thought as he closes his eyes.

That night a sudden commotion interrupted the hunting group.

Several awakened people came running towards the group with wounds all over their bodies.

"Everyone! Run! A large demon is coming!" the first one to reach the camp shouted in alarm.

It startled the people in the camp as everyone scampered to get their weapons.

"Damn these people! Why did you lead that monster here!" shouted someone from the camp.

"Look there! It's huge!" someone exclaimed as he pointed in the direction of the ruined city.

Walking towards their location is a 3-meters tall demon that has two horns on the side of its head that looks like that of a water buffalo.

It has three glowing red eyes and a huge mouth. It does not seem to have a nose or a snout.

Through the illumination of the two moons, Xin Ja could see that its skin is black with long thin air flowing on its muscular body.

Roar!!!

The giant demon roared as suddenly a few demons appear behind it as they began to rush towards the awakened group.

Xin Ja grabs his knife and prepares to fight.

Meanwhile, the rest of the people also prepare to fight the demons that are charging right at them.

The guy named France Roye suddenly jumps from high above the trees and then charges right at the giant demon.

On his way, he began cutting down the lower-level demons that came across his way.

Meanwhile, the sound of battle could now be heard in the camping area as the awakened fought against the attacking demons.

Xin Ja while above the trees tries to find a fairly strong demon. When he found one, he quickly takes out a bolt from the magazine of his MCAW and then threw it at the demon.

The bolt hits the demon's shoulder and it suddenly shrieked in pain. When its reptilian eyes saw who hurt it, it suddenly charged toward Xin Ja.

That demon is actually fighting Lance Grim, but he is not the demon's match. They are both E-rank but the demon seems to be more agile and faster, hence Lance is unable to beat it.

It was about to claw Lance who has fallen to the ground when Xin Ja attack it.

Lance saw what happened and the demon chases after Xin Ja who jumps down from the tree and began running to the forest.

"That damn coward!" Lance cursed.

He is not thankful that he was rescued and helped by Xin Ja, instead, he feels humiliated that he was rescued by trash.

Instead of being thankful he felt insulted that he wanted to follow the demon and watch as it devours that bastard's head.

"This is what you get, coward!" he muttered as he slowly stood up.

His right hand is wounded and has three long gashes on them. It made him wince to see his own blood flowing profusely from the gashes.

Meanwhile, the rest of the team is in trouble as they are protecting the porters who are now trying to enter the armored vehicle.

"Damn waste! Why protect them? Just let them die!" Lance Grim shouted as he run towards a demon and attacked.

But who would have known that the demon was able to notice his sneak attack and with a swiped of its hand it parried Lance Grim's weapon?

"Shit! Help me!" he cried as the demon suddenly pounces on him.

In his panic, he suddenly runs towards the location of Eden Vale who is busy fighting against a demon.

Eden was surprised when she saw Lance Grim appearing from behind her. Then she was shocked when he actually grabbed her shoulders and then shoves her towards the demon that is chasing after him.

Eden was dumbfounded when she uncontrollably staggered and then landed in front of the demon that suddenly swings its hand with its long claws.

She did not have time to dodge or defend herself as the demon's long claws penetrated her stomach.

Her mind turned blank in dismay when she saw Lance Grim running like a coward and using her as bait for the demon.

The others saw this but... they were unable to help her as they too are embroiled in a battle with other demons.

The demon swung its hand and flings her weak body to the side.

Thud!!!

She hits a tree and almost passed out because of the pain.

Meanwhile, Xin Ja has led the demon far from the camp and then suddenly turns around.

The demon grinned when it saw that its prey stopped escaping.

It gestured for Xin Ja to come at it and attack.

Xin Ja sneered when he suddenly vanished from his spot.

Before the demon could react, its head has already flown out of its neck.

Xin Ja then bisected the demon's head and takes out its dimension crystal which is located at the root of its horn.

He showed a faint smile after that and quickly went back to the camp.

He now knew how much chaotic energy his body would automatically absorb when killing a demon. If his calculation is right, then he would just need to kill around 20 of these low-level demons to be able to reach the next level.

He has reached his bottleneck for a while now and did not know how to proceed.

Xin Ja has discovered that to break through to the next level, he needed something. But what that something is, he did not know.

But now that he was able to kill a demon and observe clearly, he now has a clear picture and direction fro growth.
