'What the!!'

Cristian's eyes enlarged and his fingers trembled causing the necklace the slip but he caught it before it hit the ground.

Reading the attributes again and again, he still couldn't believe it. "A hundred and twenty! How the heck is this from a mere level 32 fire wolf?" he gasped in disbelief.

Lia rolled her eyes and pouted at how her Lord naively underestimated the potential of a hybrid wolf.

She felt sad that the useless dungeon Lord found it first because she was sure that such a talented wolf would not appear in his dungeon.

"It's not an ordinary wolf. It has a faint connection to Fenrir," she said softly, but that familiar name caught Cristian's attention.

"Fenrir! The giant wolf!" he exclaimed in shock. He knew a few things about mythological beings; Fenrir was the one to be remembered.

"Yes," Lia answered softly. Her eye shone as she thought her Lord remembers some things, however, that thought crumbled when she heard Cristian's next words.

"Is it alive?"

"Ha!.. it's not." Lia replied with disappointment that Cristian had failed to notice.

"Oh? Bummer"

done.me

When she heard those words Lia almost felt like hitting her Lord's head. He was one of the major generals that led the war against monsters.

Back when he was his father's favorite and not banished, his tales resounded in the dark corners of Eternity, and his name struck fear into the hearts of the enemies of the empire.

As an obedient son, he heeded his father's words like a loyal soldier and led their army right into the heart of a monster empire and slayed Fenrir's mother.

Yet after everything he did, his father seized his position and gave it to his junior brother!

Lia still felt furious at that man and watching her Lord being so na?ve made her sigh. He looked so full of life even when he had nothing, more than when he had everything and still had that desolate aura lingering around.

Cristian could not fathom Lia's current thoughts while he appreciated Chained Hearts' beauty. Tiny chains coiled around the pendant that looked like an actual heart. It glowed faintly like the pulse of an actual heart.

A tiny dark red chain connected to the pendant, forming an exquisite yet creepy pendant necklace.

'But my intelligence stat is far from seventy so it's gonna accumulate some dust,' he said inwardly. loosened the mouth of the pouch that never left his waist, took out a honey cake, and threw the necklace inside.

"Wow, this is good. Feels great to enjoy food without being so sensitive," he mumbled while his taste buds jubilated from the sweetness of the carefully prepared cake.

Lia quietly listened to her lord utter baffling words but since he loved her cakes then nothing else was important.

[Great Walkers: strong boots that would protect your feet from getting hurt by stones. Agility +5]

[Rank: Common]

[Character: strong]

[Requirements: none]

'I guess common ranked items become garbage when you get higher ranked ones. Ha! At least it's better than the one I'm putting on.'

He quickly changed from those leather boots that wore out due to what he went through at Darkston. It couldn't handle his strength, causing its early retirement.

"Hmm, feels comfortable." he praised the only possible good point the boot had.

"Get ready. Your scent has drawn a few zombies."

Cristian quickly raised his head whilst his hair partially covered his eyes. The growls were so close that the zombies were barely thirty meters away, which meant they would meet at the three-way junction ahead of him.

Shing!

He picked up the fangs and drew Burning Fury. "a few, huh" his firm tone rang as he threw the fangs in the pouch and dashed toward the junction.

The moment he arrived at the junction, Cristian's eyes almost fell out. "You call this small!" gasping in disbelief, he held back the urge to spank Lia's plump, round ass.

He expected a maximum number of ten to twelve, but more than a hundred zombies crowded the road, and as the only living being with warm flesh in this area, a horde formed on his behalf.

"Uh.. isn't this small," Lia replied with an innocent tone that riled him up. With blazing eyes, he hollered. "Remind me to spank you later!"

"I will, Lord Athelstone," Lia replied with a seductive purr that showed she already imagined it. Speechless, he ignored this succubus in heat and focus on the flesh-eating monsters.

A cacophony of growls and moans rang from the other side, which prompted him to turn his head only to see the other road being filled with another horde.

Instead of being alarmed, a smirk formed on his lips, making his looks more charming. He removed his gloves and stuffed them in his pockets.

Since he was immune to zombie bites, mowing through the walking dead shouldn't be a problem.

Cristian had regenerated almost 30 points of his mana, but he had no plans to use it. He could walk out of this alive as long as they weren't any mutants, but that thought came too soon.

The iconic shock troopers of the zombie horde dashed out in dozens. Their legs were like steel making loud sounds as they hit the asphalt road.

'Inspect'

[undead {zombie mutant; Runner}]

[Name: Cedric]

[level: 8]

[Innate skills: speed, powerful legs, sharp claws, virus]

"Wow! I was right. Even the system calls them runners." Patting his chest, Cristian felt proud of his guessing skills.

He cracked his neck and tightened his grip. "Too bad they chose the wrong man as a meal."

Bam!

He shot forward and raised his sword, aiming to decapitate the first runner. Once it got within Burning Fury's reach, he swung down.
