Arzlan started walking with a girl who he didn't even know her name, there was no time for Arzlan to ask the girl's name, he didn't want bad events to affect his mind again.
The girl couldn't open the topic of conversation, they had been walking for less than 2 hours. The atmosphere of the deserted forest gave a pretty scary effect, but that was indeed what Arzlan wanted.
Suddenly they stopped when the sound of a strange spreading through the air, a mysterious roar that gave an omen of danger was coming towards them.
"What's that?" asked the lady.
"Shh…!" A signal is given to make Arzlan guess where the sound is coming from.
They were surprised, from the direction of three o'clock a strange sound was heard, which was quite loud. Arzlan immediately put on a stance, he could feel the presence of a creature that high level.
A monster in the form of a gorilla with a size of 4 meters had appeared, the creature had two arms that were very full of stout muscles.
"Groagh!" As the greeting of the meeting the monster roared, a wave of sound hit the bodies of the two people in front of him.
"This monster is huge!" The woman became slightly horrified by the size of the opponent in front of her, it was hard for her to imagine how to fight with the creature.
Arzlan never cared about it, he put on a stance. Without thinking Arzlan immediately stepped towards the monster. "Okay, now what should I do?" Arzlan will think when he starts to walk, before this his brain went blank without thinking about anything. He used situations where his brain would work more efficiently in the face of danger.
"What? He's too reckless to face that monster!" murmured the woman, she knew that Arzlan was still in the process of healing, the open wound was still bleeding.
The gorilla monster attacked Arzlan with a deadly fist, a movement that was too slow not commensurate with the speed of Arzlan's body that had been added by Accelerator.
"Slashing Arial!" The slash Arzlan gave after moving at high speed, the monster's body was seen splashing blood from the slash made by Arzlan.
But, it's still not enough. The attack felt like tiny thorns slicing through the monster's flesh. Arzlan began to be given a sharp look by the monster, he really felt an aura of hatred from that eyes.
"Garrgh…!" The monster hit its chest making a sound like a drum, a high speed light appeared and rushed towards Arzlan.
Everything happened so fast, the smoke spread when that attack hit the ground. That monster still waiting for Arzlan's condition, too much smoke made it difficult to see where that human.
Crash!!!
Suddenly there was an attack that appeared right on the left eye of the monster, that monster took a few steps back, already a man standing in front of him.
"Uh? How could he dodge like that?" The woman couldn't understand at all why Arzlan was suddenly able to make a sudden attack. She was trying to take a piece together what really happened. "Perhaps this guy made a quick move to sneak through the smoke, then waited for the right time to strike! How many skills actually he has to be able to use tactics like this?"
Arzlan was still injured during the attack, the energy burst from the monster had time to damage him until his head was bleeding. But, it looks like he doesn't feel any significant pain, just like a doll that will never scream when injured. Arzlan's body has lost sense of pain.
Arzlan ran and then did a high jump, both hands immediately swung his sword towards the monster's face.
"Gaargh..." He roared loudly from the stab that managed to get into the flesh of his head. The monster thrashed about in its attempt to release Arzlan's tormenting sword.
"Darkness Slasher!" Arzlan drew his sword roughly at that moment when the movement of his sword went vertically so that it tore the top skin that monster, blood spurted out Arzlan's face.
After that the monster couldn't move, its burly body slowly fell. The woman who witnessed Arzlan's action couldn't blink, everything felt like a dream to her.
"Is this his power?" murmured the woman from the heart.
A man who had lost his senses had succeeded in overthrowing a level 35 monster, that level proved the monster was a very strong creature and difficult to defeat. But, all that doesn't mean, Arzlan has defeated him even though he's only level 28.
Arzlan gains exp that is large enough to make him level up to 30, it's still too far for Arzlan to reach satisfaction, he wants to quickly reach level 50 or higher.
***
After a day of searching for more powerful monsters, they never found them. Night came and brought more terrifying silence, they just stared at each other's fire.
An awkward feeling appeared in the heart of the girl in front of Arzlan, she really want to talk with Arzlan. However, the man did not look at her or glance at her at all, the fire in front of his eyes had already hypnotized his eyes.
"I should be able to get to know him!" Nose inhale deeply and exhale slowly through the mouth. "Ano..."
Arzlan raised his gaze, his gaze was so sharp like he wanted to pounce.
"Actually why do you keep looking for monsters in this forest?"
"I want to be strong, to carry out the ambitions, this body I have to improve. The opponents I will fight are not weak, they have a gift from the heavens, if I were to be rash it would mean I will die at their hands!" Arzlan spoke in an angry tone.
"I see! Is that your opponent the hero who was sent to liberate the entire kingdom from the Demon Lord?"
"Yes, they do have such a duty! I guess the kingdom just wants to use their name to do certain ambition."
The woman nodded, it was undeniable that the expansion of territory was due to the appearance of the four heroes who were reported to be who would free Scaevola from the Demon King's calamity.
"Can I ask you one thing!"
"Of course, you can ask as you wish!"
"Okay, I wonder did you care about the fate of the living beings in this world?"
Arzlan's eyes glanced back at the woman. "To be honest I have no obligation to care about that, here I am a being sent to give judgment to every being who deviates from the rules of the world! I will give them the punishment they deserve for what they have done for this life!"
The horror of Arzlan's words was really felt, he was able to give fear to those who heard him.
