Gaming Sword Magician

Chapter 34: Loots

The temple of light will hunt down anyone with a blood attributed Class weapon, but the same mentality can not be applied in the case of the royals and nobles of the Water kingdoms, especially those with a sane mind that can differentiate evil from good.

Whittaker had an S-ranked Class weapon, which means he can become an S-ranked Battle master. In the entire world, S-rankers are considered to be the most powerful beings in existence. The Frost Fall Academy headmaster was one, while the other was Shadow's father. Whittaker had the potential to become an S-ranker! Plus, Whittaker was also just an innocent civilian of the Water kingdom. So, Shadow had decided to officially treat him as a treasured subject of the kingdom and unofficially treat him as a good friend.

A single S-ranker increases the power of the entire kingdom as a whole. An S-ranker is said to be able to fight an entire army by himself!

Whittaker was recalling memories of the past.

Water Dragon Region is the Southern region of the water kingdom. According to the words of his sister, that Whittaker didn't believe, the Water Dragon Region had mermen, Merfolks, mermaids, and all the other aquatic creatures, humanoid or not, not found in the northern region, the place where he lives.

"Shadow, are there really mermen, Merfolks, and other creatures in the Southern region?" Whittaker was really curious about this matter. He was so curious about this matter that the bad emotions filling up his mind has subsided. He coincidentally ended up evading something really "Bad".

Shadow nodded his head and replied,

"Yeah, we are in a peace treaty with their central kingdom, Atlantis. Most of the goods found in the water kingdom are products of the underwater kingdom. And most Atlanteans also live in the southern region of the Water Kingdom."

Whittaker's eyes lit up in excitement! He thought. 'I will become rich and then will go to the Southern region to witness the wonders of the aquatic world. I will also take mother Lin there!'

Shadow said while standing up, "For now, don't show your Class weapon to anyone except for Headmaster Yeon. He is an S-ranker working directly under the previous Water Emperor. So, he will try to find a solution to your problem." Shadow casually exposed a hidden secret to Whittaker, a secret so deep that not even the current officials of the royal court of Water Kingdom know!

Whittaker nodded his head. In this situation, the kind-faced old man might very well be the only one with a solution!

"Let's get the beast's core and complete the last quest. Then we can return to the Academy." Shadow said while feeling the coldness in the forest increase by a level.

Staying in this cold place is definitely not a good idea.

"Sure!" Whittaker stood up. Then he patted the snow dust off his butt. The two kids started to loot the treasures they deserve to obtain.

Feeling happiness bubble over them, Shadow sliced open the snow wolf's stomach, one by one, and Whittaker did the same after learning from his actions.

Magical beasts in this world all possessed one, or sometimes, several, mana or battle energy crystals. If one gets lucky, a skill book might drop, too. That's why many people can be seen risking their lives to hunt magical beasts. It was not an exaggeration to say that the reasons why adventurers participate in a battle against magical beasts were not just because of the promised payment for completing the quest, but also these magic crystals, as well.

Anyways, among F and E ranked magical beasts, Snow wolves had one of the highest chance to drop at least one magical beast's core.

In the end, Shadow and Whittaker obtained eight battle energy cores from the corpse of the snow wolves and two mana cores from the luna wolf. They also stored the corpses of the snow wolves in their spatial ring. To their disappointment, the Luna wolf didn't have a skill book!

A notification detailing the information of the battle energy core and mana core popped up in Whittaker's vision when he gazed at the core.

[Battle Energy Beast core (F-ranked)

Consumption time: 1 Hour or instant if converted to experience points.

Effect: Gain 0.1 Battle energy or 10 XP.]

[Mana beast core (F-ranked)

Consumption time: 10 minutes or instant if converted to experience points.

Effect: Gain 10 Mana or 10 XP.]

Mana and battle energy crystals could be used for a variety of purposes and they alone exchanged hands for princely sums; no need to even mention the skill books, which could be used to learn brand new skills and spells. A person only needs to pour some drops of his blood on the book, and they will learn it. There was basically no hard work required to learn a skill through the use of skills books. That's one of the why they went for such high prices in the market.

Whittaker exclaimed with joy, "Let's get to the real prize of our battle!"

"Yeah, maybe it will have a skill book!" Shadow said that while walking towards the Winter wolf.

Under the expectation-filled eyes of Whittaker, the winter wolf was sliced open.

When the gut of the winter wolf was sliced open, a piercing glittering light shot out from within. Gazing at which the eyes of the boys widened in joy!
