"that's all of it? the three of them already dead, I can't feel the life force from them. if you still leak your power like this another monster maybe will come, do you want to fight again Len Len?"
Jade asked me because I didn't suppress my power again, she curious are I gonna allure another monster in here or not.
"well, maybe I will compress my power again, it's already enough, I already get a gist of how powerful advance and intermediate rank monster."
I tone my magic a little bit. Another reason why I want to fight some monster besides testing my power is that, I want to know how powerful monster rank below mythical and calamity. Now that I already kill two monsters rank below them, the gap between the mythical/calamity and advance/intermediate is really huge. If I compare it to the three inside me the gap between them is like earth and heaven it was too big.
"Okay then... by the way len that's was brutal, who expects that two intermediate rank monster will be dead with only one attack"
yes with only one attack I combined three technics on my fist, the first technics is my martial art, the palm that hit the monster was one of many technics in Pencak silat. the pangolin skin is so hard, my palm attack means to have powerful damage to the monster organ, the wave from my attack should be able to immobilize them for a minute. the second is my inner energy, the inner energy that I mean is like chi, the stream that it was in our body. I channel my inner energy to my palm and used it to double the damage that the monster receives in his body, and the third is my Magic, the magic that I cast was a shock wave. the results were really amazing I only use 50% of my power when I pour my magic. I imagined that the monster who receive my attack have their inner organ destroyed and make them immobilize but I was wrong, the result was too brutal. 50% maybe was too high, should consider before using it. I wonder if the advance and intermediate monster were this weak? or maybe it was me that was too strong?
"hahaha, I just want to test something but to think that it was gonna be this brutal...."
"please don't use that to another human being I don't want to see it or even imagined it"
it seems Jade in agreement with me. I too don't want to see internal organs from humans flying like that.
"me neither"
this is strange, for some reason, I don't feel any weird emotion in my heart seeing me kill the monster mercilessly. if it's me from 5000 years ago I'm sure I will feel really bad for killing it, but right now I don't feel it, I can understand the weak is devoured by the strongest. in my mind maybe I already understand that this world is all about the survival of the fittest.
"so Jade are these monsters can be eaten?"
"well the ice ape can't be eaten and mutated pangolin can be eaten but the body is already scattered in there... I don't want to eat it. so only these fanged moles was the one we can only eat."
the name of the monster that I just defeat was mutated pangolin, Ice ape, and fanged mole it looks like the name based on their original animal. the ice ape has the characteristic of an ape normally but their fur is white as snow, their body have a temperature below zero every time they walk they always leave a trail of ice, I don't understand how can animals live in temperature like that, and their body was thrice bigger than a gorilla. the mutated pangolin is like I described before, they have four arms and a long tail with a poison. the fanged mole is the same as the normal mole but bigger and they have really sharp teeth like a lion, two of their teeth are big like a saber tooth.
"ahh Len Len, if there is skin from the mutated pangolin that didn't destroy can you collect it? the price of their skin is very good on the guild." It looks like jade really likes to call me by my new nickname. well, I don't mind it too, Jade inform me about the useful material from the monster, jade said we can sell it to the guild
"oooo so you can sell this skin?" I analyzed the skin of the monster "Indeed, this skin is really tougher than I thought, are they gonna make a shield and armor from this?"
"yes, but it's not only armor and shield, it can be Arrowhead the tip of the spear, or sometimes dagger. mutated pangolin skin is really hard and durable, and we can get paid too by guild if we bring proof that we can defeat them, and made you rank C class immediately!"
if I remember C class was the second lower from the rank that the guild assign.
"are this monster is this weak? if they're intermediate rank right the fourth rank monster? why do I only be promoted to C class?"
from the information about the monster that Jade said, I can only be ranked up to C class only if I kill them alone. I assume the Intermediate rank monster can only be killed by the group of C or B rank party, but I kill 2 of them already, 1 of them is an Advanced rank monster should I already be in B rank?. while we chat we scraping the body of the monster to find the material that can be sell and some meat that can eat.
"ah no is not that Len, they're not a weak monster it's just the guild can't give you special treatment even if you kill an Intermediate rank monster, the guild should be fair to all of the Adventure, if people want to join the guild then they should become D rank first, if you really have a talent then the guild can only give you some special treatment to C rank only"
when Jade explained to me the basics about the rank that adventure assign I realized that the guild maybe doesn't use power to measure the rank of the Adventure. if they use the power measure then I should be in B rank because I kill these three monsters.
"from what you say... basically the guild gives the rank A or B only to them who already accepted some amount of mission and accomplishments?"
the little explanation from Jade makes me already understand that maybe the guild is more appreciate the experience more than power alone.
"yes, you're right. Len Len can even know the guild rank system from that explanation, it's different from me"
"different from you? so Jade don't understand about the rank system before?"
"yes it took me two years to know how the rank system in the guild work"
this girl really is a muscle brain, isn't she?
"hahaha is that so? then can you explain all how the system works Jade to make it clear?"
well, somehow I already figured out how the rank system works now, but I don't know precisely how they operate or how many amounts of accomplishments to become rank B and A or even class S?
"well let's see... the information that I got at the guild... If I'm not wrong if you want to become B rank then you should accomplish about 50 quests no matter what quest it is. after that if you want to go to rank A you should accomplish another 100 quests. by this system, the guild only accepts the experienced adventure to become the high rank. because sometimes even the more powerful adventure can't survive in the outside world, there are too many dangers that we don't know. so that's why the guild can't giving the rank so easily and to go to rank S you should prove to the guild that you are really worthy of the title. at least, you already clear the mission with difficult near impossible to perform, like join group hunting the calamity beast or you have a good reputation on another country, SS class is really special they can be said as the heroes because they deed is really big so you need one continent minimum to acknowledge you as the being who is more powerful than anything. this is a simple explanation from me"
Jade explain all the detail about how to rank up at the guild. it's really not easy, the guild is really serious about the rank and they're not even prioritized the ones who have the talent they only prioritized the someone who have more experience in hunting the monster, the guild is really having a good system. because the one who already have more experience have already know how to handle the situation more perfectly than the one who only have the power. the one who only have the power tends to only know to handle the situation only with their power, but the experienced one will handle all the situation more calmly and have more wise judgment. After all, they already experience the same thing over and over when they have accomplished the mission. this system is to prevent someone who wants to cheat on the rank and to prevent any Injustice about the treatment to those who have the talent and the one who can only work hard, basically, the guild thinks all of them are the same, they're all adventure.
"Wow, that's was really a good rank system the guild seems really wise to judge a person from their experience and accomplishment. so S rank and SS rank mean you need something Special from you to worthy enough calling you special, huh?"
I'm impressed at their system, at first I thought the guild maybe only look at the person from the power but it looks like l wrong.
"yes the S rank/SS rank is really special that's why there are not many people who go to S rank, but even sometimes there's A-rank who have a skill like S rank. some of them unable to accomplish something to become worthy enough of S class, even though they have the power/ that's why S rank is special"
she proudly said to me as if to show off to me
"hahaha I know I know, you're really special aren't you?"
"of course I am, but my goal is not only the S class I gonna aim at SS class so that I can compete with the 13 of them, and of course master Len Len I believe will accomplish it too shortly"
Jade encourage me to aim at the top, she is really a girl with a positive attitude.
"then you should help me to get to SS rank, and then we can get promoted to SS rank together"
I give little encouragement to her too
"oooo that was brilliant, as expected master, but no matter what will len len do I will still help you, even if it's not to aim SS rank class because you're our village master!"
"is that so? hahaha I'm glad"
I laughed hearing her saying it and happy to hear it.
we just talk and scraping the monster body till the sun already down. we take a camp near there, luckily near our place of fighting, there's a cave so we take shelter in there and rest
