Chapter 261: Beastkin Race

In the meantime, inside a huge cave located on a lush green mountain, a woman in green hair opens her eyes from her meditation.

"This power should be from sister blue and eldest sister. They are at the same location. Don't tell me they are currently fighting. But, there is no other fluctuation from sister blue besides the first one. Moreover, This direction should come from Porros."

"How come both of them are inside the Porros? I need to check this out. I really have a bad feeling about this. Hopefully, the eldest sister has not fully recovered her strength." said the green-haired woman before turning into a green phoenix going towards the Porros.

During this time, not only green phoenixes but many powerful people head towards Porros direction. Rather than going into the Porros, they are going to the center of the dimension. 

Be it monster, beast, or various civilian races, all of them head towards the center of the dimension, The Endless Battlefield. The mysterious place where only the fated one could return.

The rumor said that the one that returns would receive tremendous power beyond comprehension. Since there is no restriction on who could enter the place, many living beings from various factions will always try their luck and enter the area despite the horrible rumor.

At the same time, Porros, which is the only civilian city near the center, is getting a lot of immigrants from various forces. From the beastkin race to those magical demon races, all of them start to gather at the Porros city.

In the meantime, Angus and Jayna's match finally reaches its end. As usual, Jayna couldn't hit Angus at all despite her improvement. However, unlike before, Angus needed to deflect her attack using [Unbreakable Shield] as he didn't use any spell or skill to avoid her attack.

Therefore, everyone could see Jayna's strength and battle prowess more clearly than being toyed by Angus from far away like usual. After Angus and Jayna match, it is Millie's turn to demonstrate her power.

However, she refused to fight Angus and used her Soul Power on the dummy for demonstration. Although a few days have already passed since she traced Angus's soul, she still couldn't shake her fear when confronted with Angus.

Done seeing everyone's capability, Vigo immediately gets out from the Draught's small mountain and begins to create everyone's weapon. Unlike before, his eyes are full of confidence and spirit.

In the evening, just before dinner time, Draught finally finishes checking Jade's weapon sentient. According to Draught, there is nothing wrong with Jade's sentient weapon. He also suggests a few ways to bring out [Crimson Orb] potential.

After that, everyone greets Draught and goes back to the inn. Back to Porros city, everyone could see the city is more crowded than before. They could also find many different kinds of races in the city.

Although the sun has already gone, the city is still lively as in the daytime, especially the tavern and other entertainment places. Despite the crowd, the public order is still maintained. 

Angus and the others could see many guards consisting of high-grade combatants patrolling around the area. No one dares to create a commotion inside the Porros. Furthermore, most of the people here are immigrants and like to mind themselves rather than create problems.

Arriving at the inn without any obstacle, everyone went into their room to rest and end their day. In the next few days, Angus didn't go out too much as he decided to cultivate his chi like usual. Still, he receives news from Jayna and others about the Porros's current situation.

Each day passed by, more people came to Porros for various kinds of reasons. Unlike the Ancestral Ruin event, Endless Battlefield has no restriction for entry which attracts everyone who is already reaching their limit.

Although there are a lot of entrances to the Endless Battlefield scattered across the dimension, the entrance near Porro's city is the only known as the safest one for civilian races.

Not wanting to let this opportunity go, the Battle Arena is also launching a tournament like the one in the Ancestral Ruin. Angus decided not to participate in the tournament. Currently, he is too busy preparing for the Endless Battlefield.

On the contrary, Jayna, Mia, and Ilgor decide to participate in the tournament to improve themselves. Anna also wants to join the tournament but is immediately refused by Angus and Jayna. They know Anna will only bring nothing but trouble if she enters the tournament.

The last time she fought inside the Battle Arena, she almost killed Ice Maiden and offended an unknown high-grade combatant.

The tournament in the Battle Arena attracts a lot of people, especially the battle-oriented race like orc and a few beastkin. During this time, Jayna and others finally could experience the difference between races, especially against beastkin.

The Beastkin race has a lot of sub-races, from the agile rabbit race to the mighty lion race. Like the Demon race, each of these sub-race has its own trait and specialty. 

Usually, races like rabbits, cats, sheep, and other similar races dislike having unnecessary conflict and fighting. However, races like bear, tiger, wolf, lion, and other similar ones are more aggressive and battle lovers as they are also oriented to battle.

Before the tournament began, Ilgor managed to fight against a tiger beastkin race. At that time, Ilgor almost lost his match because of the difference in physical strength. As an orc, Ilgor's physical strength is quite top-notch among other races.

However, he is still far from those beastkin races that are blessed with incredible physical strength. If Ilgor is not rich with combat experience and high attainment in axe mastery, he may lose his match and be beaten out blue as Anna did to Ice Maiden.

Hearing this story, Angus is also interested in fighting those beastkin races. However, according to Jayna, their fighting style is too crude. Most of the beastkin races that participate in Battle Arena only used their instinct and their superior strength.

Jayna even said that Anna is better than most of them in terms of combat experience. Apparently, according to Jade, the beastkin race in these dimensions is scarce. Therefore, they didn't have a big community on their own like in the Firuman.

Without a stable life and protection, they could only rely on what they had and were led to have a poor fighting capability as most of them were self-taught. 

This fact is quite a surprise since Angus knows that in Firuman, Beastkin is like the most combat-oriented race and famous for their many powerful skills. Now, he knows why this dimension is not suitable for living and nurturing the younger ones.

Unless they get power like Jayna and others, they may have difficulty surviving inside this dimension.

'No wonder uncle Jade is adamant at moving towards Firuman. This dimension is truly not suitable for living, especially the weak one.' thought Angus after hearing Jade's explanation.

Currently, there is around a week before the Endless Battlefield opens. As more people come to Porros city, the merchants from various locations in this dimension also gather. Angus decided to use this time to search for any valuable item in the market.

In the meantime, the girls are hanging out together and decide to try the famous Porros's hot water bath and spa. They also managed to coerce Anna to tag along after being told that she could play with soap bubbles in there.

While the girls are having their fun, Angus decides to walk around the commercial district alone. As he guessed, he found many exciting things in the market, from the unknown monster corpse to the unique enchanted item. 

He could even see some rare potions sell in the market. However, none of these things truly interested him as he could also create them after being given sometimes. While he is wandering, Angus finds Vigo, who seems to be having a conflict with a group of people.

"Vigo, my friend, I heard you get some money to buy items." said the leader of the group.

"What do you want, Obo?" said Vigo coldly.

"Well, since you get some money to buy things, why don't you pay your debt now?" said Obo.

"Didn't I already pay everything yesterday?" said Vigo.

"True, but you forget to pay the interest." said Obo with a smile.

"What interest?!! I already paid for everything and the interest." said Vigo.

"Well, our policy changed, and the interest rate also increased. So, you need to pay more." said Obo.

"Bullshit!! This is clearly a robbery. Getaway, or I will call a guard." said Vigo.

"Guard?! Hahaha… Are you sure you want to play that way?" said Obo while smiling.

Hearing this, Vigo starts to have a bad feeling.

"What are you planning? This is Porros. You can't do anything here." said Vigo.

"True. Porros has quite strict rules. However, in case there is an unresolvable conflict, they often use Battle Arena to handle it." said Obo.

"Battle Arena?!! Don't tell me.." said Vigo.
