Blood Assimilation

232 Report

Without the existence of the powerful and almighty apostles, it was truly impossible for the war to come to an end any time soon.

As such, the mortals or those that did not possess any combat abilities were left to suffer from the ravages of the unceasing war that occurred covertly and overtly.

Furthermore, according to the foundational laws established when their world was created, once an apostle ascends, they would no longer be bound by the mortal world, meaning they wouldn’t be able to return unless they sacrifice part of their divinity or limit themselves by sealing their strength.

Thus, even if the apostles wanted to return to save their kin, they wouldn’t do so recklessly. This was because they wouldn’t dare risk their lives by limiting their strength just to come to the mortal world.

Unless the apostles were beyond the absolute control of the laws, if they died with their strength limited, they would truly die.

Of course, another method was to raise an apostle with the aim of not ascending right away.

The other gods decided that this was a feasible approach to effectively solving the current state of affairs of their world. Because the yet-to-be ascended apostles would possess tremendous powers that would be able to resist the demons.

However, that approach hasn’t been successful so far.

The main reason was that most people wanted to ascend to the realm of the gods once they transcended their limits. To them, this meant breaking through from their level 99 cap that had held them back for so long to level 100.

.....

Furthermore, no one would want to risk their lives in a meaningless war between those that could be considered mere mortals. They would rather become an apostle with powers akin to the gods than risk their lives for such debacles.

After pondering for a minute, the demon general snapped out of thoughts with a cautious expression on his countenance and immediately instructed his subordinate, who also just came back to his senses: “We need to keep an eye on that human we just saw. For now, you should return and immediately report to the military advisor about this matter. Tell him to inform the King about a possible threat.

And then he paused to think for a moment and continued: “Emphasize that there are strange movements from the humans in the Meistic forest. And that there was a possibility that our plans were exposed. Furthermore, don’t forget to report about that human brat that interfered with the mission!”

“Set off right away! I will stay here for a bit and observe what is going on before heading back!”

“Right away, my Lord!”

The subordinate solemnly responded. He proceeded to take out a scroll and ripped it apart before quickly vanishing from his location, seemingly teleported away to their territory.

A moment later, the demon general scoffed and said: “How hateful that we failed to procure the sacrifices this time. If I get the chance, I will kill that human myself for getting in my way, in the most brutal way possible. I will make him regret impeding my success in this secret mission!”

After saying that, he also vanished on the spot. His destination was unknown.

...

Inside the Meistic Forest.

At this time, Randy was running through the forest in search of some magical beasts to vanquish. He did not plan on hunting many, just enough to complete the request.

However, he has not been able to find any magical beasts so far.

Although there was no requirement that stated how many magical beasts he needed to hunt down, he still wanted to hunt enough magical beasts. This was to avoid any suspicion of neglecting his mission for whatever reason.

The fact that he neglected his request for a time made him all the more determined to hunt the magical beasts.

Currently, he only hunted down two magical beasts, and that was at the beginning when he first arrived at the village. After that, he teleported into the Dungeon of Beasts’ safety room to practice his mana training technique.

After finally returning, he ended up meeting those demons that were up to no good.

After their fight concluded, he decided to commit himself and hunt the magical beasts near the village as requested, but there did not appear to be any magical beasts around the vicinity of the village as he had initially thought. Therefore, he decided to explore further.

However, the deeper he ventured into the forest, the more he found out that there were no magical beasts within 100 meters radius around him.

Unwilling to give up just yet, he continued to head further.

Right at this moment, he suddenly heard screaming voices that seemed to be heading in his direction, which prompted him to immediately halt his movements.

‘What’s going on? Why are there people screaming in a forest infested with magical beasts? Isn’t that too dangerous?” Randy wondered the reason behind those loud screams, which seemed like a careless action.

He then paused for a moment to ponder something before shaking his head afterwards.

As much as he wanted to use his sensory skill to investigate it, he decided to hold off on it for now in case it was those demons again. After all, the pain of having his skill’s connection cut off was quite painful mentally.

As a precaution, he chose to hide somewhere and observe the situation first.

About 90 meters away from where he was hiding, he found a group of Dungeon Hunters, who were fleeing from the pursuit of some fierce-looking magical beasts.

At this moment, one of them cried out with a hint of fear in their voice: “Not good! At this rate, we’ll all die here!”

This person was a young woman, appearing to be in her early 20s. She was dressed in green, tight-fitting battle clothes, wielding various kinds of weapons. Furthermore, from her commanding tone, she seemed to be the leader of her team.

All of the team members, including her, appeared to be experienced hunters, judging by their quality equipment.

However, at this moment, they all looked ragged and battle-worn, as if they had endured an extremely harsh battle.

The green-clothed young woman loudly spoke up again with a grave expression: “I will stall them, and you guys should take that opportunity to go and report the situation to the Society, so they could send reinforcements!”

“But we can’t just leave you behind, Leader!”

The others expressed their disapproval upon hearing the young woman’s words.

They felt extreme indignation and unwillingness to leave her behind while they saved their own skin. After all, they had spent most of their entire career together.

Moreover, anyone who saw the swarm of magical beasts would know right away that it was impossible to survive such an encounter, even if those were low-level magical beasts.

However, these were all C-Rank and above. Their hunting party was only B-Rank in terms of Dungeon Hunter Rank, and while they could deal with C-Rank magical beasts quite easily, they would eventually tire themselves out and die in consequence.

Not to mention that there were B-Rank magical beasts among these swarms of magical beasts, making it utterly impossible for their team leader to survive.

In this situation, how could they abandon their leader and escape by themselves? Wouldn’t she be dead by the time reinforcements arrive?
