Chapter 48 - Verixan Struggle

It was then that I realized, the gravitational force here was at least stronger by two folds. I only made it about 120 meters. Then I started falling. The creature seemed to be waiting for me to fall to my death. I couldn't accept this.

There's no way I would die here!

I took in a huge breath. I did the dragon's roar. I directed the waves toward the creature. It seemed to be affected by the sound of the dragon. I flew upwards due to the force of the roar. Before I knew it, I was right above the branch. I immediately caught it. The creature was leaning on the tree. I let out a huge sigh of relief.

It couldn't do anything to the tree. I looked around. What scenery! The forest was very beautiful. I saw exactly nine other trees like this. Just what was this place?

I just remembered about the Astromix that the master gave me. I activated it. Instead of a yellow light, a green light emitted from it. it was really gorgeous. Then a huge holographic map came out. There were several small dots and only one of them was white while the others were red. I presumed it was the star I was currently on.

I clicked on that little dot. Then it zoomed and now a football size holographic version of the star I was on appeared before me. Unlike Earth, I was mostly covered with an ocean, and only about one-tenth of the surface was land.

There were no other islands. The land was darker red while the ocean was light red. Another white dot appeared. The astromix had another button on the side. I clicked it. After that, the hologram immediately shrunk to about a tennis ball's size and a text was next to it. It said this.

This is the Verixan Star. It is one of the most rural stars of all and is inhabited by the race called Verix.z

The strongest Verix has the power equivalent to that of a lower stage A class annihilator. It also has several beasts other than this race. The most dangerous one is the Krial. It is a large beast that hunts its prey alone. It is either gray or black and is at least 10 meters tall. An adult beast of this species has the strength of an A-rank annihilator and is 20 meters tall. Other beasts are C rank or below.

This information was very useful. This astromix was definitely priceless. I was very grateful to the master.

I looked down. This Krial was about 12 meters. So it was safe to assume that it was still nowhere near being an adult now. So it must be a lower stage B rank just like me. If I try my best I should be able to fight it.

I ran before because it was so intimidating when I could have fought it all along. Unfortunately, I started feeling the side effects of the dragon's roar. My body felt like lead and sore. It wasn't as bad as last time but roaring like that for the second time in my life still took a lot out of me.

A day of soreness for a couple of seconds of peak power was definitely only a trump card I'd use when I was all out of moves. I barely managed to set up an uncomfortable bed on the wide branch. I immediately passed out as usual.
