Chapter 16: First Fight in the Forest



Chapter 16: First Fight in the Forest

Bam!

Lyle fell down from the tree and slammed the spear and branch in his hands into the skulls of two Toskars.

The spear he had created managed to pierce into the soft skull of one of the Toskars, but it broke in the process.

The branch, however, dealt a powerful blow to the top of the other Toskar\'s head and was still in one piece. Lyle immediately threw the broken piece of the spear at the third Toskar before jumping back and dodging four tentacles that attacked him.

The Toskar whose head was impaled by the spear had managed to lash out against Lyle before stumbling around and falling on the ground dead.

As for the other two, they were enraged and ready to fight, well, at least the third Toskar who didn\'t suffer a concussion was. The broken piece of the spear had impaled itself in the bloated stomach of the monster, but the wound was not deep and the Toskar could fight.

The second Toskar, although still awake and ready to fight, was visibly shaken from the blow. His steps were slow and his body was swaying a bit.

\'Good, I can focus on dealing with the third one while this guy is still in shock from the blow.\' Lyle thought before moving. He was faster than the two Toskar who were relatively slow monsters thanks to their large heads.

He attacked the third Toskar right after dodging two tentacles that were coming at him, the tentacles were slow and not a threat to him since the second one still hadn\'t recovered from the blow.

The problem came after he reached the third one. The tentacles were faster and even though Lyle could follow their movement and predict where they would come from, his body was not fast enough to allow him to do what he wished to do.

\'Dammit, I still haven\'t gotten used to the current state of my body!\' Lyle cursed before dodging back and glancing at the dead Toskar behind him.

He suddenly ran back toward the second one before dodging to the side and grabbing the dead Toskar\'s body with his left hand. He jumped in the air before grabbing the broken spear and pulling it out of the head before doing a quick spin and kicking the corpse over to the second Toskar who quickly used his tentacles in order to protect himself.

Lyle landed on the ground and immediately threw the broken spear at the third Toskar before charging at the second one.

The tentacles of the second Toskar were entangled around the corpse he previously threw at him, which allowed Lyle to shorten the distance between them fairly easily.

Upon reaching the Toskar, he quickly slammed the branch on top of its head. The branch snapped from the power of the blow while the Toskar leaned back from the hit, his tentacles entangling from the corpse and falling down on the ground as the monster had briefly lost control over its body.

Lyle then used his claws.

He stabbed the small, chubby neck of the Toskar before using his other hand to stab through the monster\'s eyes. A fountain of blood spurted out from the monster and covered Lyle who used his ability to manipulate it.

He immediately used one of his skills and formed a spear from the blood. Well, calling it a spear was more than generous as it looked like a thin piece of red matter that was being held in his right hand.

The \'spear\' was about half a meter long ( about 1.7 feet ) and was only 4 millimeters thick ( 0.06 inches ). It looked incredibly frail and Lyle didn\'t doubt that fighting with the spear was impossible since one hit would be enough to snap it in half.

But this was the best he could do with his ability in a hurry. He assumed a pose and pulled back his right arm before locking onto the final Toskar. One of the tentacles was severely injured as the broken spear he had thrown previously managed to pierce through it, well, it pierced the left side and there was about 40% of the tentacle left at that location.

Lyle spun his hips before throwing the blood spear with all of his might. The spear zoomed through the air before hitting the head of the Toskar. The Toskar had been unable to even use its tentacles to block the spear as it was simply too fast.

Just like Lyle had thought, about half of the spear broke on impact, but it still penetrated deep enough. It wouldn\'t kill the Toskar, but it was close to doing so.

Lyle smiled savagely as he stared at the Toskar before snapping his fingers. The spear suddenly shook before exploding and dealing the final blow. The part of the spear that had been lodged inside the Toskar\'s skull exploded and destroyed the brain, killing the monster.

"Phew." Lyle exhaled strongly before leaning against a tree and sliding down. His face was covered in sweat as he had used most of the mana he currently possessed to create the spear and make it explode.

The explosion was a skill he had created by himself a long time ago, and one that he loved using the most as it allowed him to quickly kill any enemy he stabbed with his daggers. But that was the previous him, the him right now was so weak that he could only do it once.

Ding!

[ Skill \'Blood Explosion\' has been created. ]

[Blood Explosion – The host can use any blood that he has manipulated and cause it to explode. ]

"Oh, the system can do things like this, that\'s good, I don\'t have to worry whether my old tricks would work then," Lyle said before taking a deep breath. He wasn\'t only tired because of the large loss of mana, but because his stamina was depleted as well.

Most people could fight such a battle and they would feel a little bit tired, but for some reason, even during the night when his stats were boosted, Lyle felt quite tired right now.

[ The battle has been concluded collecting soul power … ]

-Lvl 4 Toskar killed, 40 soul power gained

-Lvl 4 Toskar killed, 40 soul power gained

-Lvl 5 Toskar killed, 50 soul power gained

[ The host has earned 130 Soul Power ]

"So these guys were multiple levels above me, I wonder how much stronger one becomes after a level, well, no better way to learn that than to level up myself," Lyle said as he stared at the canopy above him.

"I shouldn\'t just sit around, I need a weapon," Lyle said before getting up.

Branches like the ones he used before wouldn\'t be enough for fighting against monsters, he needed thicker ones.

Lyle spent the next forty minutes looking for thicker branches before using his sharp nails to sharpen them.

He even used his blood manipulation in order to cover his nails in blood before making the blood take shape of the nails. He focused on making the edges of the \'nail armor\' as sharp as possible before he started working.

Even though doing that made him use more mana, it was a small amount and he had already recovered a bit.

Lyle created a longer and thicker spear compared to before, he also used some vines he found and wrapped them around one part of the spear so that he can grip it better before using another vine to tie it on two ends of the spear so that he could holster it on his back.

Lyle next found another thicker branch and cut it into two pieces, each being about 35 cm ( 14 inches ) long. He then spent most of the forty minutes working on the two pieces. He created makeshift daggers, and just as he did for the spear, he wrapped vines on the handles of the daggers in order to have a better grip on them.

Lyle nodded at his two new daggers as he spun them around. The two daggers were crude and simple, but they would be enough for now.

If Lyle had his previous power, he could use such daggers to kill even Bronze Knights as he could wrap mana around them. With the measly amount of mana he had now, however, he was unable to even reinforce his body with it, much less to bring it outside and use it on his weapons.

Against weak monsters that roamed the forest, however, it would be enough.

He could use the spear to hit an enemy from long-range or to fight an enemy that had the reach advantage over him. The daggers were his weapons of choice, however, as he was most familiar with them.

Lyle\'s mana had replenished enough and he soon took off, ready to face off against more monsters before trying his luck in the city. The company of soldiers should have already taken full control over the castle and the lockdown should be lifted in the morning.
