“Yeah Max. We should go and hunt some beasts. That way we will be able to see exactly how much improvements we’ve made in these past few days while simultaneously earning more mana stones. Hehe.” Leticia chimed in and waved her small fists excitedly.
Unlike before, Max found this suggestion to be very good. Initially, he had thought that some two-star beasts would come in the valley once in a while since there was a water source. This way, they won’t have to put effort to search for them and could kill them to gather enough beast cores.
However, during these days for some reason, no matter how much commotion they caused, apart from a few one-star beasts, no two-star beast showed up. Maybe because this valley was located in the lower part of the two-star beasts’ area.
He smiled seeing her become excited. She had improved a lot in past few days. Her control over mana had become more refined and she no longer wasted as much mana as before while fighting and casting spells.
Her [Wind Bullets] spell’s cast time had also shortened because of her continuous practice. She also made quite a lot progress towards the peak of middle stage two-star thanks to regular interactions with Max and daily cultivation.
He then turned to look at Belen and Rima who also nodded in agreement.
Belen had reached the high stage and the power of her vines was now a notch higher than before. Max also found out that the spell she was cultivating a plant magic spell, [Vine Kingdom].
This spell was one of the super spells for plant magic users thousands of years ago. But over time, it was lost.
Some mages, who were proficient in plant magic mimicked it and created a low-end version of the original. Although its power degraded to very low point because of this, it was still among the top Middle grade high-level spells, comparable to a grade three spell, that no ordinary mage could get their hands on.
Max didn’t ask how she got it since he wasn’t interested. Moreover, after a casual search, he found that his system shop had the original [Vine Kingdom] spell and it was graded as a grade seven spell.
He decided that he will gift it to her when she reached four-star realm and he had enough LPs. Right now, he had sixty thousand LPs which were only enough to unlock the grade three sound spell which required 55,000 LPs, leaving only five thousand for him to use.
‘Maybe I should have waited for a few days and then unlocked it instead of wasting LPs on that [Destruction wheel] spell.’ Max thought.
Rima was getting more depressed by the day and he didn’t have enough to unlock the sound spell then. But he couldn’t bear to see his woman like that so he unlocked the [Destruction wheel] for her which would push her strength further and make her feel good.
Now seeing Rima smiling happily with everyone else, he shook his head ‘It was worth it.’ As for earning more LPs, he had three women willing to provide them anytime he wanted so he wasn’t really lacking LPs.
Moreover, his attributes were at the top of two-star realm and his mana core also needed some consolidation due to him increasing his mana rapidly which made it somewhat flawed. To fix it, he might take a few more days. By then he would have enough LPs.
“Okay then we will hunt as many beasts as we can in these seven days while simultaneously moving towards the gathering point.” Max nodded. He also wanted to test his improved strength and they had to reach the gathering spot in a week.
After deciding this, they rested for that day so that they would be in their peak forms.
…
Next morning…
They got ready to leave and after ascertaining the direction of the gathering point which was northwest, they walked out of the valley.
After travelling for two hours, they found a black bear that was in the middle stage two-star realm. It was a two meters tall and had thick arms with metallic black claws.
“Let us handle this one.” Leticia and Rima looked at each other and volunteered. No one had any objection so they charged at it.
Shua!
Leticia’s figure moved like wind and appeared 50 meters away from it. She conjured four wind blades and shot them towards its limbs.
Meanwhile, Rima also closed the distance between them and started casting her [Destruction wheel].
Roar!
Watching Leticia’s wind blades coming at it, the black bear roared and swiped its claws rapidly.
Bang! Bang!
In just a second, all the wind blades were destroyed and dispersed in thin air. After that, the black bear roared and charged at Leticia with murderous look on its face.
“Hehe…” Its speed was very fast but Leticia didn’t panic like she would have before. She giggled softly and her body swayed easily dodging the strike.
Before the bear could recover after attacking, a few winds blade slashed at its legs.
Clang! Clang!
The blades successfully hit its legs but they didn’t do any damage apart from infuriating it even further.
Roar!!
It roared furiously and its claws started shining this greyish light. It turned towards Leticia and swiped its claws at her.
Leticia retreated the moment it raised its arm to attack. A mocking expression appeared on bear’s face seeing her retreat.
“Watch out!” Belen’s voice sounded in her ears which made her alert and she watched the bear closely while moving back.
Swish!
The bear even after seeing that Leticia had moved out of its range swiped its claw at her.
Just when Leticia was thinking why would it still attack, a claw same as the bear’s but only bigger, appeared only one foot away from Leticia’s head and followed the bear’s movement swiped down.
“Shit!”
Leticia cursed but didn’t panic. Her wind mana enveloped her figure and her speed increased by three folds. Unfortunately, she didn’t have enough time to dodge it.
Sou!
Bang!
Just then the sound of something piercing the air sounded and blasted into the claw made of mana.
