Chapter 12

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Karl came to a small river and looked at his body, all covered in blood. He gradually fell into deep thought.

Such battles didn’t feel too good. His image would be affected if he was stained with blood.

It seemed that he would have to be more careful when fighting magical beasts in the future.

He jumped into the river and washed himself.

Then, he washed his clothes and used his magic to dry them before putting them on.

Although there were still some bloodstains on his clothes, it was much better than before.

At this moment.

Swoosh!

A figure suddenly charged out from the depths of the forest.

This figure was wearing a tattered, black cloak. It should have been torn by a magical beast.

He carried a two to three meter long scythe on his shoulder.

He exuded an aura of death.

Wherever he passed, the surrounding trees shriveled and withered.

Moreover, behind him was a gigantic magical beast, a Tyrannical Tiger.

It was obvious that this person was being chased by the Tyrannical Tiger.

“Adrien?”

As the man’s hood was tattered, Karl could see his face at a glance.

It was his friend, Adrien.

“Karl?”

Hearing Karl’s shout, Adrien noticed him and hurriedly said, “This is a Level Two Tyrannical Tiger. We can’t deal with it, run!”

Adrien did not expect to see Karl here.

To him, even though Karl had elite magical talent, he was still a beginner stage one-star mage.

It was impossible for a beginner stage one-star mage to deal with a Level Two magical beast.

The difference between the two was too great.

Following that, he turned around and led the Tyrannical Tiger elsewhere.

After all, this magical beast was lured out by him.

He could not let his good friend die with him.

With that thought in his mind, Adrian turned around and saw Karl, who was wreathed in lightning, quickly rushing towards the Level Two Tyrannical Tiger.

This discovery scared Adrien out of his wits…

“Brother, let’s go!”

Adrien howled, thinking that Karl might not be able to survive this.

At this moment.

Boom!

A resounding thunderclap resounded between heaven and earth.

Adrien saw with his own eyes as Karl released a bolt of golden lightning and struck the ferocious Tyrannical Tiger.

Then.

This Level Two magical beast was blasted into smithereens.

It didn’t even leave any magic crystals.

“Hu.”

Karl let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the Tyrannical Tiger had been reduced to ashes.

Even though he did not manage to obtain the Tyrannical Tiger’s magical crystal this time, he did not feel that it was a pity.

Because this was a Level Two magical beast.

Typically, only two-star mages could deal with them.

In order to kill it as soon as possible to avoid any accidents, Karl used his strongest attack right from the start.

The Calamity of Destruction did not disappoint him.

Even though it was a Level Two magical beast, it was blasted into smithereens.

“Oh my God, you actually killed a Level Two magical beast?”

Adrien was dumbfounded.

Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that this would be the outcome of Karl and the Tyrannical Tiger’s battle.

A Level Two magical beast was blasted into smithereens by a one-star mage?

And it didn’t even roar?

How was Karl strong?

“Adrien, why are you wearing this?”

Karl looked at Adrien.

Adrien recovered from his shock and said, “I saw from some ancient books that powerful death mages were all dressed like this, so I followed suit.”

Karl looked at the two to three-meter long scythe in his hand and grimaced.

In his previous world, there were no mages.

However, there were images of magicians, such as movies and comics.

And the Death God on them was wearing a cloak and holding a sickle.

“By the way, are you an intermediate stage one-star mage now?”

Adrien asked.

Karl nodded. “Yes.”

Hearing this, Adrien’s eyes widened in shock. “You just became a mage yesterday and advanced by a mini rank in one day. You’re ridiculous!”

Karl smiled. He could not say that he could share the cultivation experience of others.

“Are you still going to kill magical beasts?”

Karl looked at Adrien and asked.

“I’m not going. I didn’t go any deeper, but I ended up encountering a Level Two magical beast. It’s too terrifying. If it weren’t for you, I’d probably be dead.”

Adrien shook his head, fear flashed in his eyes.

In the wilderness, he was afraid of being too rash.

Otherwise, if he encountered another Level Two magical beast, he would definitely be doomed.

However, it was obvious that Karl had a high-level magic skill to be able to kill a Level Two magical beast.

He did not ask about this.

Although the two of them were friends, each of them had their own secrets. Between friends, not everything could be asked.

Then, the two of them walked towards Rost City.

“Look at the bloodstains on your clothes. How many magical beasts have you killed?”

Adrien looked at Karl’s dirty clothes as they walked.

“About ten or twenty, maybe.”

Karl replied.

When night fell, the two of them arrived at the south gate.

Both of them showed their mage badges.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw them, their expressions turned respectful and opened the city gate.

“Two honorable mages, please.”

Karl and Adrien walked into the city and teleported to the place closest to their home through a small magic teleportation array.

Even the small-scale magic teleportation array closest to his home was quite a distance away.

It would take a long time.

After Karl bade goodbye to Adrien, he did not use his magic nor ride on a horse.

He simply walked back unhurriedly.

It was evening, and the people of Rost City had just eaten dinner.

Some people strolled along the streets.

All sorts of hawking sounds could be heard.

As Karl watched, he suddenly felt as if a lifetime had passed even though he had only left the city for a day.

The city was peaceful and prosperous. A myriad of lights were on. Outside the city, roars of the magical beasts could be heard. Danger was everywhere.

Everything felt surreal.

It felt like two different worlds.

But they were real.

It was already very late when he got home.

Karl ate dinner and then slept comfortably.

Karl woke up the next morning.

After killing the Level Two magical beast, Tyrannical Tiger, the spiritual energy that he had expended the day before had already recovered.

He was in perfect condition.

He freshened up briefly.

He opened his attribute panel.

Binded Target 1: Headmaster of Violet High School, Rayne Kirby, a Great Mage.

As expected.

This time, a pale gold “+” appeared again after Binded Target 1.

Karl smiled and said in his mind, “System, share Rayne’s one day worth of cultivation experience!”
