[Phantom Moon Shadow Kicking Technique: Lv1]
The Evolution of the Kicking Blow Skill at Level 10, which can only be attained by Supernatural Beings who have mastered the ability to imbue the purest essence of Death, Darkness, and the Moon into their kicks. This is a powerful and indescribable technique that has only been created once, by the wielder of this very Skill. A powerful Kicking Technique that has been self-taught is filled with endless potential.
By gathering the Purest Essence of Death, Darkness, and the Moon into the user’s Legs, all Kicking Strikes Damage dealt are enhanced by +300% with an additional +35% with each Skill Level. Additionally, it is possible to drain HP and MP from a foe with each strike based in 20% of damage dealt, alongside ignoring all their defenses by -35% and deal Soul Piercing Damage, which deals 30% damage to their souls. This Skill contains special Techniques unlocked with each Skill Level.

Level 2: ???

Oh yes, this truly complements my Demonic Ghostly Fist Technique, which is already at Level 9 because I can’t stop using it even though I am more of a magic-oriented fighting.
Its just that, although magic is good, nothing beats kicking or punching a bastard you really hate, isn’t it?
And its abilities were rather different than the fist techniques, with the power to summon the moon shadows, which seem like a mix between moonlight and darkness.
“Mama! Mama! The meat skewers are done!” Nyx flew to my side, sitting on my shoulders. “What are you doing?”
“Oh, nothing much, dear.” I giggled, quickly grabbing her and carrying her on my arms. “So, you wanted a dress and a big axe, didn’t you?”
“Yesh!” She nodded. “Will you make me one, mama?”
“Of course, it might take a few days though, I am full on commissions. I have to upgrade both your aunties’ weapons, then mine, then yours come next. And I haven’t even finished my hat yet.”
“Aww…” Nyx sighed. “But can it get done by the end of the week?” She wondered.
“Of course! Don’t worry about it.” I smiled, patting her head and then giving her a big kiss in her puffy baby cheeks. “Your birthday is coming pretty soon. You’ll be a two-year-old girl now.”
“Two-year-old already?” She wondered. “Oh wow!”
“Dragons develop very quickly mentally, to think you can talk and all, usually humans take a lot of time to talk like you do.” I told her, as I walked back with everyone else.
“Really? Humans are weak then, hehe!” Nyx giggled mischievously.
“Well, isn’t Celes your friend? He’s human…” I said.
“Oh right!” Nyx laughed. “I guess they’re fine then!”
“Yes, never forget, everyone got their own weaknesses and strengths.” I explained to her. “If possible, remember to be humble and understanding of other people and their situations.”
“Oway~ I am hungy though!” She said, barely listening to what I was trying to say.
Kids these days…
“Okay, let’s feast then! No more boring babbling.”
I sat down with everyone else in our camp, as I was greeted by my friends. Everyone was in high spirits after the intense hunting session we’ve had today.
The day was already coming to an end, so this barbeque was more of a dinner already.
“Looks like you raised more than half of the Drakes into Undead…” Lucifer said. “This is quite the big and strong army now. Do you have any plans for the bosses?”
“I’ll keep them for now and distribute the materials around. I’ll need some of them to make or reinforce the equipment.” I said, as I received a big volcanic drake steak from Lucifer.
He had no problems eating Drakes or Wyverns, they were as distant from dragons as rats from humans in terms of evolution, so he didn’t mind eating them at all.
“Is that so?” Lucifer wondered, serving me some rice and potatoes too. “Nyx, come sit between the two of us, you’re bothering your mother. She has to eat too, you know?”
“Okay!” Nyx nodded, sitting between the two of us as she was served a plate full of meat, rice, and roasted potatoes. “Nom, nom, nom!” She quickly started devouring everything without waiting, she was truly a gluttonous little girl.
“She sure looks happy.” Tear smiled. “I guess today was a day well spent. My level increased quite a lot… And the other newbies all grew stronger.”
“My level also raised a lot.” Catarina nodded, eating meat skewers. “I’m still getting used to this form of mine though. I wonder if we can go hunt more later? We’ve got the whole week left, right?”
“Yeah, I’ve already thought about a few other places where we could go hunt for monsters and level up.” I nodded. “Well, not us, we’re max level already. But we need the S Rank Monsters. And if my calculations are correct… The warlocks must be targeting small Haunts or Dungeons and trying to boost the monster’s growth.”
“Oh? But why?” Catarina asked. “Wait, don’t tell me they’re…”
“Yep, I am really beginning to believe they were aiming to use all these monsters we just defeated to utterly destroy the Oasis City…” I sighed. “Whatever plan they have, it involves the sacrifice of thousands of people living there.”
“What the fuck are they even planning now?” Partner groaned, munching on a giant cheeseburger. “Why would they need so many sacrifices? Some wicked ritual?”
“Well, it might be possible…” Lucifer nodded. “After all, from everything we’ve deduced and found out. Their master must be that Mutated Evil God Fragment that managed to develop a powerful Ego of its own…” As he spoke, Celes and Nia glanced at Lucifer. “The monster that defeated the Divine Oasis Spirit and forced her to sacrifice her own body and soul to seal him… The Dark Pest.”
