"Heh?" the hunter muffled in surprise when Kadyn avoided the attack. "You can still move, heh?"

Kadyn gave no reply and instead demanded. "I saved your life just now. Why are you trying to kill me?"

"Sorry man, I don't hold any grudge against you, but I have a family to feed, so give me your bag-pack and I might consider giving you a painless death." The man shook his head when he saw the clueless-type expression on his face.

In just a single glance he could tell that this was the first time the boy had come to a dangerous place like [Panoramic Forest]. The man had no intention to waste his time, after all, he wasn't the only person here who would kill for the riches.

"Whoosh!"

Wasting no time, the man lunged at Kadyn with the shining dagger in his hand. "You killed your companion?" Kadyn probed.

Hunter narrowed his eyes upon hearing him, but then snorted. "Humph," and attacked.

Kadyn avoided the slash from the dagger. However, just when he was about to cast the spell, a long spike penetrated out from the ground, trying to poke a hole between his legs. Kadyn shuddered in terror when he saw where the spike was going to penetrate.

At the last moment he flipped backward and avoided the attack, but he lost the balance and tip of the spike brushed by his arm, dying his clothes red in blood.

"Hmm?" the man seemed surprised when Kadyn avoided the attack. "You aren't bad, kid. It's just your bad luck to encounter me."

Kadyn supported his body with his uninjured hand and sat on his ass, glad that his butt was still perfectly fine. He peered at the man in front of him and rose on his aching legs.

Hunter strolled and stood ten meters away from Kadyn. "Actually, you are correct. I killed my companion." He eyed the cold corpse on the ground, lying on the puddle of blood as the flies cheeped about. Kadyn eyed the man, and his brows furrowed.

Why didn't he tell him this previously? Why now?

Does he think I can't escape death because of my injuries?

Kadyn curled his lips in disdain and voiced. "That wolf…"

"It came due to the blood stench."

Hearing this, Kadyn realised what was going on. He looked at the corpse and saw a bag at the side. His eyes glittered, but he hid it cleverly, without letting the man in front of him know.

"Why are you telling me this now? Do you think everything is under your control because I am injured?" Kadyn's voice was filled with fatigue and as he said he slowly moved towards the corpse. He was closer to the body than the man and it was around eight meters away from him, while the hunter was about ten meters away from him.

The man saw his action and thought that he was trying to find the escape and also started to move towards him. "Do you think you can escape me? You are nothing but a stupid child. You don't even know most basic applications of survival—to save a stranger's life you have drained your mana completely. How stupid is that?." As he said, the man narrowed his eyes because Kadyn dashed in a certain direction.

At first he did not understand what he was trying to do. After all, he could not run much farther in this condition. However, when he saw the corpse and the bag lying in the same direction, his eyes widened and a roar escaped from his mouth. "How dare you eye my valuables!"

Kadyn smirked coldly, hearing the shout, and grabbed the bag. "Stop right there, or I will burn this bag to ash with everything inside."

Hunter halted abruptly at his threat. The distance between the duo was only around five meters. Kadyn could see the red eyes of the man, killing intent bursting out of them. "So this bag is the reason you betrayed your partner, hmm?"

"Give me the bag, and I will let you go." The man said after taking a long, deep breath.

"Oh, how generous of you." Kadyn sneered. "Do you think you can hold me, if I want to escape?"

Hearing Kadyn's words, Hunter's heart thudded, and he pried into his surroundings. But when he found no one in the surrounding, he again eyed Kadyn's smirking face and snorted. "I would like to see how you escape, huh!" The man sprang at Kadyn after saying this.

However, Kadyn smiled jubilantly and blurted. "Return!" as he said, his body vanished without any trace. The hunter, who had jumped at him, fell in the dust and broke his nose, and the blood dripped from his nostrils. He looked around, stunned. Then howled indignantly "Arrhgghhh!!!"

He was so confident, yet he still lost.

Kadyn appeared inside the meditation room and fell on his back, huffing and puffing. After fifteen minutes he opened his eyes and started to meditate. The experience he had gone through today was terrible and he won't be able to forget it anytime soon. Who would have thought that his kindness would be repaid in such a way? Terrible!

[Energy Points: 21-4→17]

Without realising an hour passed, however, Kadyn had no intention of stopping and continued to meditate.

[Fire Star→7]

Fifteen minutes later, one more notification sounded in his head. Kadyn became surprised when one more fire star activated. He thought it would take some time to activate another star. Who would have thought that happiness would come this fast?

This must be because of the pressure of the battle I have gone through.

As he continued to meditate, the cool sensation washed his body, and his body healed

The door of the room opened, and Kadyn saw Elora's anxious face and asked. "What's the matter?"

"Father was here."
