Nothingness God

After Chris, Lillia and Aurora entered the star forest.

Aurora was in a bad mood since not only had they made fun of her, but it even made her remember an event which she had spent years trying to forget, at first Aurora thought of using her saddlebag to stab Chris, but since she had Lillia in her arms so she held back.

After calming down a bit they headed to the middle area.

The moment they were entering the middle area Chris suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong" said Aurora seeing Chris's strange reaction.

"I detected a group of level 3 creatures and there's a level 4 leader" said Chris hearing that the two girls nodded and went to the group of monsters, but Chris' face suddenly appeared an imperceptible smile.

(How interesting I thought this mission would be a bit boring, but that shitty magistrate in order to fulfill the wishes of his useless son, he sent 5 earthly experts from the holy kingdom and one heavenly one) Chris thought as they addressed the group of creatures.

As the three of them arrived, they noticed a group of 5 level 3 black bears but their leader was nowhere to be seen.

Aurora summoned her halberd and Lillia took out two normal swords that the school had given her as a reward for her performance and Chris summoned one of his infinite swords, since Asura was very notorious for his ability to control endless black swords, this the sword he summoned took it upon himself to alter its appearance so that they would not notice that it was the same type of swords that Asura used.

"Wait, the leader wasn't supposed to be a level 4 bear." Aurora.

When the group of three went to attack the bears, they noticed that the leader returned, if the leader returned it was not a problem since the 3 of them could fight a level 4 creature without problem with their current forces, the problem is that the leader was with another level 5 creature.

A level 5 creature wasn't a problem for Lillia and Chris, what made things difficult for them was that Aurora was with them, and she only knew they were rank 4 so they couldn't expose their strength.

"Hey Chris, you didn't say that the group was made up of level 3s, with a level 4, because a level 5 appeared" said Aurora looking for an answer.

"That level 5 was not here when I verified it, in addition to the fact that a level 5 appears in a group in the intermediate zone of the forest, it is not normal, it is probable that there is something near here, that they have to protect" Chris replied to the question of Dawn.

"It could be that there is a nest near here and we can hunt creatures very easily" Lillia said, thinking that they had found a jackpot.

Since a normal nest usually has hundreds of levels 3 and 4 monsters in it, it would be intermediate plus there might be a few level 5s.

Thinking of this assumption they lowered their weapons and hid hoping to follow the bears to their nest, thinking they would have hit the big prize.

About a mile from Chris' group, a group of six followed the small party, hoping to ambush them.

For a group of experts in the holy realm this job is child's play and a waste of their time, lowering themselves to do this kind of thing, but since this was a request from their boss they couldn't refuse, they couldn't make them disappear very quickly to the children as this would cause suspicion which would affect the magistrate.

"Boss how much longer are we going to follow them" said one of the men.

"Be patient we may not have to wait a couple of days as originally planned" replied the hooded person who was addressed as boss.

"Look at those bears, they are probably headed for a nest and from the looks of it there is at least one level 7 creature in the nest even if we kidnap them early no one will be able to tell it was us" the boss said.

*** ***

Chris was mostly focused on the Saint experts following him as he originally planned to explore the surrounding area before going to the nest, but since they were already following him, he decided to get rid of the pursuers, so he could continue his walk with the two beauties, so Therefore, he decided to show the strength of a rank 5 and tell Aurora that he broke before the test due to luck.

Once they got to the nest, they were surprised at the level 3 and 4 creatures outside the nest, there were at least 20 level 3 and 10 level 4 creatures with one level 5.

After seeing the group of bears that followed, enter the cave they stopped while looking at the nest.

"This nest may not be something normal for there to be so many guards outside, there is probably something interesting inside" Lillia said seeing the creatures outside the cave.

"It is likely that the leader of the nest is giving birth to his cub or maybe he is advancing a level" said Chris to be able to answer Lillia curiosity as to why so many guards, he actually already knew that the leader was about to become on a level 8 creature but didn't say so to avoid being asked why he knew.

"That doesn't mean that we have a very good chance of obtaining the corpse of a level 7 creature or obtaining the level 6 puppy, no matter which of the two it is, we would win on both sides" said Aurora thinking that this time she had really touched them the jackpot.

"This time we get lucky before the exam I managed to pass rank 5 so it's possible to get the rewards" Chris said.

"What did you say?"

When Aurora heard that, she was surprised because she too is about to break up, but she thought that at least one or two weeks would be missing to reach that point, realizing that they had beaten her, she felt bitter in her heart.

*HOOOOOO…*

Once they confirmed their plan of action, Chris created a large number of wind arrows above his head which aimed at the level 3 and 4 bears, once in the crosshairs, the arrows attacked in a burst like a rain of pins, some few were killed while the others were wounded.

“WAAARRRR…”

When the bears noticed this, they ran madly at the group of 3 but when they were in front of the group a sudden wall of blue fire stood in front of them repelling the bears.

Normal fires are red or yellow in color, and each element has a destined color but in the event that a person mutates their element this color changes, as is the blue fire in front of them which Aurora created, Aurora was born with a mutated fire element and therefore has a special elemental essence in addition to being born with the ability of pyrokinesis, she was also born with the water attribute but this did not change and her color remained the same what surprised everyone is that she was also born with the ability of hydrokinesis, that someone possesses two special attributes although it is not very frequent but it is not very rare either, but being born with the respective abilities is something that is almost impossible for someone to happen to.

By the time the low-level bears were locked up they would be trapped for at least 3 minutes before they escape.

Therefore, they could face level 5 without concern.

“WORRR…”

The black bear, seeing the 3 in front of him, howled in fury at being deceived and attacked the closest one.

*afterimage*

But when he was going to rip Chris apart with his claws they disappeared, the next moment he noticed that the black-haired boy was only an inch from his side with his sword radiating a green light while the wind swirled around him, when he noticed the boy the next moment he had disappeared once more.

“It was faster than I expected”

The bear saw the young man again 10 meters away, he tried to chase him, but he couldn't, what he noticed is that when he tried to walk, he fell to the ground noticing that his legs had been cut, when he was going to drag with his claws two swords and a halberd pierced him in the back giving him an instant kill.

When the level 5 black bears died, the group of 3 continued to attack the others who were in the wall of fire, killing them one by one.

"Hey why that level 5 died so easily, even if you're at rank 5 it shouldn't be easy to cut it" said Aurora confused due to how easy it is to deal with bears.

"These bears are creatures that rely on attack and stamina, their claws and fangs are extremely hard and sharp making them a great material for some weapons and their fur can withstand extreme heat and cold making it a great material for clothing, but their bodies aren't that hard so it was easy to cut him as long as you aim for their fragile parts" Chris replied to Aurora's question.

Realizing this fact, the group's confidence increased a bit since as long as they can deal damage to the creatures, they could kill it even though they would have to be more careful not to take damage.

Storing the corpses in a space bag, they entered the nest.
