Chapter 448: Troll demon
Jayden carefully observed the cave entrance while he sensed the area around him, but he still couldn’t feel any aura.
‘ It doesn’t look like the work of a human, nor could a 1st Zone demon do it with their level of intelligence, I wonder what kind of creature lay inside. ‘
Jayden thought, he tried to use his Void skill and could vaguely feel that there definitely was something inside but because of the distance it couldn’t sense it clearly, it was all very blurry, and he couldn’t make out the actual figure.
Without a second thought, Jayden entered the cave through the narrow entrance and slowly walked inside with slow and careful steps.
It was dark to the point that after taking a few steps he couldn’t see anything, with no sound coming from inside the cave, except for the occasional sound of a drop of some liquid falling onto the ground.
‘ I don’t think this darkness is natural the light inside this cave is definitely being altered by something. ‘ he thought while walking forward, the more he walked inside the bigger the cave became, and it stretched to more than a few hundred meters.
The area around him was wet and the walls and ceiling all contained strange scratch marks, he was using the Void skill to make up for his eyes, but with his current senses, he didn’t really need to use any skills, after all, he had honed his senses under the extreme test of Asura God.
As Jayden walked deeper the humidity inside increased, but he wasn’t much worried since he knew it could at most be a 2nd Zone demon or something of similar strength there was no chance that there could be a 3rd Zone demon in this area of forest.
‘ Anna, how is my strength and defence compared to those of 2nd Zone demons and 3rd Zone demons? ‘ He asked while keeping an eye on his surroundings, ready to defend at any moment.
” Hmm 2nd Zone demons are a lot stronger compared to these 1st Zone ones, but in comparison to your fighting prowess, I would say if you fight without using any of your techniques or abilities and using only around half of your strength and speed, you would still be able to defeat them but many of them have quite tricky abilities, so overall they are not a match for you.
About the 3rd Zone demons, the difference between 2nd and 3rd Zone demons is even wider, it would be impossible even for you to kill them without going all out and using even your Rakshasha, so they are still stronger than you.
As for your defence, even though I don’t know its limit, but one thing is for sure that it is better than the defense of any of the 3rd Zone demon. ”
She concluded, while Jayden listened to it all attentively and was satisfied with his body defence, and his strength would increase even further when he absorbed the cores of both the 1st and 2nd Zone demons, so Jayden wasn’t worried about the 3rd Zones demons.
After walking straight for over four hundred meters, Jayden finally smelled the scent of blood from somewhere in front of him, he focused on his eyes and finally, the darkness began to subside, then he was finally able to see a demon some distance away from him.
It was a giant with a body structure similar to that of a human, it quite resembled a Troll, Jayden had seen in various anime but its face was smashed and one of its eyes was missing with the other being injured quite badly.
Its entire body had deep cuts and its brownish green skin was missing from many places, exposing the demon’s flesh and organs for everyone to see.
There was a big cut on the Big belly of the demon and looked as if its organs were about to pop out from there, its condition was quite bad and it was a miracle that it was still alive, there was a pile of bones beside it, and it seemed that this demon had been staying here for not too long.
‘ For some reason, I think I will feel guilty and bad if I killed this pitiful creature, tch tch someone was cruel enough to even remove this demon’s crotch. ‘ Jayden thought and shook his head with a light sigh, but since he wasn’t even trying to hide his presence the Troll like demon slowly opened one of the remaining eyes and growled lightly as it raised its body up with a lot of difficulty.
*GRRRRRRR*
Taking the help of the wall it stood up on its injured legs and focussed its vision to where Jayden was standing, with a mixture of drool and blood rolling down its mouth, the Troll like demon walked towards him with wobbly steps.
” Look I don’t want to do this but since I’m going to flatten up this part of the forest too, so it’s better for you to have a painless death now. ” Jayden looked into the eyes of the Troll demon, and found out that even though its intelligence wasn’t as high but it still had a language of its own type, after using Void skill to copy a part of its memories, Jayden had spoken in the tongue of the Troll demon.
“Hu?!!”
The demon stopped instantly when it heard Jayden’s words and a light of familiarity was shown in one of its remaining eyes.
” Guuh uub hiiik ”
The demon spoke in its own tongue though it was quite clumsy, since its intelligence wasn’t very high and sat back down with its back pressing against the walls, Jayden nodded his head and said in agreement.
” Yeah life isn’t fair at all, what happened to you? Did some demon do that to you or was it a human? ” He asked, speaking in Troll’s language.
With difficulty the troll began to speak again and told Jayden that one big strange creature had entered its Village and killed most of them, he was lucky enough to escape but the injuries were quite bad.
Even while the demon was sitting its height was still a little higher than Jayden’s, the overall height of this demon was somewhere around thirteen or fourteen feet.
Jayden found out that it was most probably a 3rd Zone demon who had attacked the Troll’s village, he sighed in pity thinking that even their lives aren’t easy, so he decided to let the demon live for some more time and since he could get bored while travelling alone he decided to take this demon along.
” Stand up and follow me. ” He said and looked into the demon’s eye.
” Hu giee ” With a dejected look on its face the demon told Jayden that it couldn’t even stand, and asked Jayden to just kill it and save him from the constant torture.
” Sigh open your mouth. ” Jayden said and the demon opened its mouth wide, almost instinctively as Jayden threw a couple of drops of his blood into the mouth of the demon.
At first surprised, it then sat up straight and watched the changes in its body with wide eyes.
