The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker

Chapter 36: Eclipse Forest

The distance they have to travel from the Moon Dragon City to their current location wasn't that far.

Based on the distance from where he is standing and the view of the Moon Dragon City in the far distance, he is guessing that it's only twenty to thirty kilometers away.

Although it's not far, it's also not close, hence making it just the perfect location for Monster Points. Over this place, the monster can get a great view of the Moon Dragon City whenever they want and see whatever preparations the city is preparing against them, at the same time creating plans on what is the best way to launch their attacks.

Moreover, it would also give the monsters enough time to prepare to ambush their targets whenever they spotted any people approaching their location. To top it all off, this area is already densely covered by plenty of greeneries, allowing them to keep their presence completely hidden from sight. Unless someone is looking for them intentionally, it would be difficult to spot them.

"No wonder the military wasn't able to deal with these Monster Points," Kayn remarked.

There's honestly no problem when it comes to the level of skills of the military forces of the Dragon Beast Republic. As a matter of fact, they are ranked third among the Ten World Leaders. The Mercenary Nation is first, due to their one-man army Mercenary King Grey, and the Kraken Republic is second, due to the leadership of Admiral Robert.

However, that is only when it comes to dealing with Human beings just like them. In the case of monsters, it's going to be a completely different story.

Monsters have abilities, also more commonly known as Gifts, just like Heroes and Superhumans. But unlike Humans, their Gifts are not gained upon birth or through the blessing of the 'Tower', rather it's through killing other monsters just like them. Meaning, their Gifts are tailor-made for killing. This also means to say that if one encounters a monster in the wild, never think that they would have the same kind of Gift as the other monster of their own species.

That is one of the biggest mistakes that rookies would commit every single time they are out in the wilderness.

Simply put, the Gifts that monsters have received are going to entirely depend on the experiences they went through before their Gifts manifested. Meaning to say, their battles, environment, fortuitous encounters, how they survived until now, and many other more. Their Gift would directly complement those experiences.

"We are on the outskirts of the Eclipse Forest, which is the home of Light Deer and Dark Boar. But in recent weeks, a few more other species of monsters have been spotted getting in and out of this forest. The longest they would stay would be two days, while the shortest was only five hours," Leah started reading the report she wrote on her tablet. As an assistant of Selina, she naturally came prepared.

"This kind of behavior has already been recorded as one of the signs before a Monster Horde is formed, thus the reason why your father took this matter very seriously,"

"According to the newest report sent yesterday by the scout that your father had assigned to observe this place, there are five species of monsters in this forest at the present. I don't know for certain if there are any changes within the past couple of hours, but nevertheless, we shouldn't let our guard down," Leah sternly informed them as she then stopped talking and continued to read her tablet in silence, marking the end of her report.

"Just having two species is already more than enough to be cautious," Kayn muttered as he started searching for a weapon to use inside the trunk of the car. He already has armor, which is the most basic but practical of all in their current situation; an arm-guard, knee-guard, and body armor, that's all, as this isn't a dungeon or anything that's really dangerous.

Meanwhile, Selina is by his side, observing his every action as if she is trying to understand something in him.

Surprisingly, Natas was able to follow them to this place without any problem. Though he is curious, he knows that this guy has his own ways.

Right now, Natas is standing right beside Selina who is reading the tablet in her hand. Probably he is trying to get as much information as possible to help him so that he won't fall into really dangerous situations later on.

How entertaining!

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom What could even possibly threaten or pose any danger to him at this place?

To tell the truth, there's none!

That's because what these three people… no! Two people and one God, don't know, is that he actually knows this place like the back of his hand. The reason being is that this forest was actually the original location of the base of his previous guild 'Mischief'.

Way before 'Mischief' became the number one guild on Earth, it started as a mere team of Heroes. And the Eclipse Forest was the training ground they've chosen to improve their skills, Gifts, knowledge, experiences, and cooperation. He basically grew along with the trees, plants, mountains, rivers, and each inch of earth in this forest. Throughout the years he was training here, he became very familiar with every nook and cranny.

"Good thing you are aware of that," Leah remarked.

Kayn simply ignored Leah as he focuses on picking a weapon for himself.please visit

To tell the truth, he already has a weapon in mind. The problem is, it's a sword instead of a dagger. At this present time, everyone around him is fully aware that he uses a dagger, and never once have they seen him use a sword as a weapon before.

Furthermore, Selina has prepared a variety of daggers for him, evidently expecting him to choose one of them. While there are only five swords, respectively claymore, saber, rapier, shortsword, and broadsword, all being the most ordinary and simple of their type.

Selina wasn't a sword user, as she is a Battle Mage, so this obviously indicates that these swords are Leah's weapons. Of course, he is aware of that, and that is one of the reasons why he is taking a lot of time to choose.

He can't just casually take Leah's weapon because this woman is very stern and meticulous when it comes to her things. She won't even let Selina touch her bag, not to mention him touching her weapon.

"What's taking you so long?" Selina asked, feeling impatient already.

"Um…" He seriously doesn't know how he should explain. He still knows how to use a dagger, but because he has been using a sword for many decades, he isn't confident in his skill in using a dagger anymore. He probably has to get familiarized with it for some time before he could confidently say he is good with daggers again.

"Just take it and use it!"

"Wait…" He was instantly rendered speechless. Not because Selina shoved a weapon at him. It's because the weapon she actually gave him is a sword.

"I don't know what you're contemplating hard in your head right now. But I saw you moving your eyes between the daggers and the swords. If you want to pick a sword, just pick one! And let's get on with the real business," Selina felt irritated. She noticed Kayn looking back and forth between the daggers and the swords, and every single time his eyes stares at the swords, his fingers would move as if he wants to grab them. What she's irritated about is, why is he hesitating?

"Sorry," Kayn felt a bit apologetic.

"What's taking you both so long?" Leah turned to look at Kayn and Selina.

"This guy wants to pick a sword but was hesitating," Selina didn't hesitate to say the truth.

"If you want to use one of my swords, just use it. I don't see any problem in experiencing new things, especially since you are still a Superhuman. Experience is your friend, always remember that Kayn," Leah advised.

"I understand," Kayn felt stupid. That's right, why was he hesitating on picking between a dagger and a sword when he is still a Superhuman? It's only natural for a Superhuman to have no main weapon yet, as they are still trying to see what's perfectly suited for them. If he suddenly shows great talent in using a sword despite the fact that he has no past history with it, he can simply say that perhaps this is the weapon that perfectly suited him. They won't feel any suspicion or something that would make them think that he isn't the Kayn they used to know.

"Don't forget that you are no longer a Hero, Kayn," Natas reminded Kayn. "What would seem strange to you, might not be for others because of your status as a Superhuman,"

Kayn only nodded at Natas because of the presence of Selina and Leah. They are Heroes, so they naturally have stronger hearing compared to Superhumans and ordinary people. He can't risk the chance of them being suspicious of who he is talking to.

"Let's go to the north side of the Eclipse Forest first, because that is where most monsters were reported to be gathering together. Along the way, we might meet with other monsters. Don't hesitate to eliminate them, as they still pose a significant threat to the Moon Dragon City," Leah further reminded.

"Yeah, yeah, stop nagging us like a mother," Selina just waved her hand off and started preparing something.

In the next moment, Selina blasted off a strong flame from her hand, causing her to immediately fly towards the north of the Eclipse Forest. She wasn't flying like floating up in the air, she was like a bullet that shot away or a rocket that launches up into the air after the countdown reached zero.

"I'll scout ahead first. You both walk to the location we discussed just now!" Selina exclaimed as loud as she possibly could so that Kayn and Leah will still be able to hear her.

"Are you really serious about having her as your girlfriend?" Leah can't help but ask Kayn behind her.

"All I can say is, there's no one on Earth that's just like her," Kayn could only show an awkward smile at Leah. Though, that was honestly how he felt after learning that she was one of his companions that died for him.

"You're seriously and completely smitten by Selina," Leah said before deciding to completely ignore Kayn and leading the way in front.
