Samuel charged straight at Mathavios, Soulrender in his right hand.Mathavios' massive belly quivered.The next instant, hundreds of thick vines burst from beneath his robe, tearing through rooftops as they shot toward Samuel from every direction.Samuel's gaze remained calm.Four slashes of the heavenly consortium!First slash!His sword traced a simple horizontal arc.The foremost wave of vines was severed instantly.Second slash!A second arc followed before the first had even faded.The remaining vines exploded into countless pieces.Mathavios narrowed his eyes.The broken vines suddenly wriggled. Tiny roots burst from every fragment, rapidly growing into new vines.Samuel had already expected it.Void lightning strike!Heavenly lightning descended.Several bolts struck directly among the villagers charging behind Mathavios. Rooftops erupted. Bodies were blasted into the air before crashing through nearby buildings. The smell of burnt vegetation filled the air.Yet Samuel's attent

Victor looked at the green-skinned man whose skin was nearly identical in color to the Green Beast's. Could they trust them?He didn't know. But right now, he couldn't afford to hesitate over trust. Without wasting another second, he thrust out his hand and unleashed a bolt of lightning.One of the green-skinned men was already keeping the enormous creature occupied. The lightning slammed into its head with a deafening crack, electricity dancing wildly across its body. Its movements locked up for a brief instant, creating the perfect opening.Tibeth seized the opportunity without hesitation. Roaring, he swung his axe with both hands, bringing it crashing into the creature's forehead with tremendous force. The impact echoed through the forest, staggering the monster backward.The green-skinned men fought with remarkable coordination. Thick ropes were fastened to their spears, and whenever one pierced deep into the creature's flesh, they yanked the weapon back with brutal force. The hoo

It carried a massive kanabō, its black iron studs glinting ominously as it rested across its shoulder. It stared at Tibeth and Ouyang the way a predator regarded helpless prey.The creature was enormous, its body packed with grotesque, bulging muscles that rippled beneath its green skin. Its head was massive by ordinary standards, yet compared to the rest of its colossal frame, it looked strangely undersized.It bared its teeth. They were huge, yellowed, and caked with filth. A revolting stench wafted from its mouth, so foul that you didn't even need to stand close to smell it."What the hell is that!?" Ouyang gasped."I don't know what it is, but it's about to attack. Cover yourself!"Tibeth shouted as he drew his axe and raised it in front of him. Qi surged from the weapon, wrapping around his body like a protective cloak.The creature exploded into motion.Its massive kanabō descended with overwhelming force.BOOM!The collision shook the ground beneath Tibeth's feet. His arms trem

"What is it you noticed?" Nina asked curiously."Well, this will sound strange because they talk and behave like humans, but I think they're plants.""Plants!?"Nina's eyes widened."Strange, right? Orion, at least, isn't human, so I assume all of them must be the same," he said."I see. So what are we going to do now?""We don't know if they're harmful or not, so for now we just have to wait, I guess. But I'm still very uneasy about this place and a few things, so we should stay alert. Let's pretend to sleep tonight. If nothing happens, we're leaving tomorrow."Nina nodded.A few minutes later, the door opened, and a maid carrying a tray walked in. She placed it on the table before walking over to the bed. Leaning closer, she peered at the two of them. They were both sleeping peacefully. Satisfied, she nodded and quietly left the room.Samuel opened his eyes the moment she shut the door. Sitting up, he decided to cultivate. He took out a few pills and handed one to Nina."Just in cas

Samuel wasn't interested in naked green-skinned women, so he didn't even spare them a glance."Mathavios, the reason I agreed to come and see you is because I have a few questions I want to ask.""Alright. Go ahead." Mathavios nodded."I was wondering, do you know of any place with ruins or something of the sort? Maybe nearby or even far away.""Ruins? Why do you want to know about such places?" he asked, frowning."Well, do you know any?"Mathavios set the piece of meat in his hand down."There's actually quite a number of them, and surprisingly, they're all in the same area. I heard they used to be inhabited by divine beings," he said."Divine beings?" Samuel muttered thoughtfully."Yes. The legends say they were the original owners of this land. They could create countless miraculous pills from herbs and different plants. They even cultivated vast gardens around their homes."A strange light flickered across Samuel's eyes.The first word that came to mind was alchemists.What truly

Samuel and Nina had decided to leave the town since the people here didn't seem to welcome them.Before they could get far, a group of people dressed in blue uniforms approached them. Weapons hung from their waists, swaying softly with each measured step."Honorable guests, the town leader has heard about you and wishes to host you." The green-skinned man leading the group bowed respectfully."That's my father! Come, my father wants to see you!"The little girl eagerly tugged at their arms, practically bouncing with excitement, but Samuel remained rooted to the spot."Are you sure it's alright? The people of your town seem to be scared of me," Samuel said, gesturing toward the men and women peeking cautiously over the wall. The moment his finger pointed at them, several immediately ducked out of sight.The man glanced over his shoulder before letting out a warm chuckle."They're simply surprised by your skin color, not necessarily afraid. I'm sure they'll grow accustomed to it soon. T
