Inside the cave, a big wolf the size of at least 6 feet was sleeping on a stone. Its body was black in color with blue stripes on its body. It had large claws, a big tail, and a large jaw with big teeth. When it heard that some sounds were coming, it slowly stood up. The first thing it saw was a human with a big spear.
"Wew, there is only one. I could have been in trouble if there were more wolves. It looks like these demon beasts have their own territories."
Since it was his first time going to fight against a beast, Davion was a little nervous. He immediately became ready in his defensive posture. Seeing its sleep getting disturbed, the wolf immediately became angry and attacked with its claws. After becoming level 10, Davion has become really strong. Seeing the wolf coming over, Davion immediately dodged its attack. Seeing the puny human managed to dodge it, the wolf tried to use its tail also to attack. But Davion managed to dodge all of its attacks. Seeing the wolf can't hit him, Davion used his right hand to swing the spear and his left leg to kick the wolf. The wolf managed to dodge the spear but got hit by the kick.
"Wow, this is what it really feels like to fight against a beast just like the novels in my previous life." Davion was enjoying this and he even used his fingers to mock the wolf.
Seeing that the puny human was teasing it, the wolf finally became serious. Lightning started to generate between its tail, foot, and claws.
"So, this is the ability of the wolf. It looks like I need to join some sects before I can learn these techniques. The only ability I have is spiritual energy. Hope it can overwhelm the wolf."
Davion also concentrated his energy on his spear and his legs and got ready for round 2.
"Come"
This time the wolf was faster by at least 2 times, but Davion was also not slower. He used his spear to block those claws. But few cracks were seen in the spear. Some lightning flew into his body, but nothing happened to his body.
"It looks like the spiritual energy also protects my body and these normal spears can't be used to fight against these beasts. I need to end this battle quickly or else my weapon will break. Let's use more energy."
Davion poured more energy into the spear. The spear glowed white and it started shaking. It looked like the spear couldn't handle more energy. So, Davion immediately gave up the defense and used his full strength to battle with the wolf head-on. The claws of the wolf got bent when Davion used his spear. Taking this chance, he pulled up the spear to the top, which went inside the head of the wolf and the spear also broke. In this way, Davion killed his first demon beast.
"HAHA, I finally killed it. I also reached level 11. Damn, just by killing a demon beast I got lots of experience points. It looks like I have to kill more on the way. But my spear...In novels, important parts of these beasts can be sold to earn money. It looks like I have to take some parts of these beasts to sell. Do they have demon cores like in those novels?"
Davion immediately used the broken spear to try to dig the body of the wolf. He found a blue ball-like crystal inside it.
"Is it the demon core?"
He used his hand to take it out. After seeing it, he stored it in the small bag he carried. He also cut those claws and a couple of teeth of the wolf and put them inside the bag. After checking everything was ready. Davion started to hunt for more beasts and continue his journey.
One week later, a man was using his fists to fight against an ape in the forest. The ape was about 10 feet tall. It was completely red in color. The whole body of the ape was burning and was very hot. But the man was using his clear white hands to battle with the ape. Indeed, this man was Davion. By using his spiritual energy, he could neglect those heat waves coming from the ape. Even though the Ape was big and had large strength, it could not touch him. Davion immediately found a chance and climbed upon the body of the ape from its back. Davion caught the neck of the ape by using his arms and tried to twist its head. But the ape used his full firepower to burn Davion. But only the clothes were burnt and only some black patches were on his body. Nothing else happened to him. By locking the ape and by using his full energy Davion finally managed to kill it by twisting its head.
"HAHA, finally I reached level 14. But wew, this battle was too tough. My clothes got all burnt. Some places on my skin got burnt. But this is okay, it will be normal after I finish leveling up."
Davion waited for some seconds and saw that his skin got renewed and was again full of energy. "This is one of the toughest battles I have ever fought. Damn this Ape, it took a full one hour to kill it."
Davion used his right hand to punch the head of the ape and took out the red demon core.
"In these 7 days, I killed 7 beasts, making my level up to 14. The experience points needed to level up are also getting larger. Most of the beasts near here are also almost finished. My small bag is almost full. Lots of materials got wasted. It would be good if there were space rings in this world."
Davion took out an extra cloth from his bag and after wearing it, he continued his journey.
