Nero, The Legendary Hunter

Choko needed very little to become a Level 5 Warrior. Thanks to the monster cores, she managed to level up. Very happy, she showed the Hunter Card with her information.

"If your class is a warrior, does that mean that in addition to gauntlets, you can use other weapons?" Nero always wanted to ask that question.

"Yes, I can, but I like to use gauntlets more," Choko said, "I tried to use swords, spears, daggers, axes, etc., but what I liked most was the gauntlets."

"Oh, so that's it. Well, as long as you prefer them, I don't see any problems," Nero smiled at her.

"Yes. By the way, are we going to start traveling towards the Nan Empire?" Choko smiled and asked.

"Yes, but we are not walking, I think it is better to fly. Not only is it safer, but we also do not need to make our return through Esfin Town's streets if we fly," Nero said as she drew a map on the sand floor.

"... Okay, I'm ready!" Choko closed her eyes and held out her arms for Nero to take her in her arms, however, she heard a laugh and opened her eyes.

"Yes, we will head out in a moment, but don't you think we should store our things and the tent?" Nero said laughing, finding Choko's actions amusing.

"Eek, yes, I'm so distracted... It must be because I haven't woken up yet." Choko made an excuse while feeling embarrassed and, at the same time, enchanted by the beautiful laugh of Nero's, who shook her shoulders whenever she laughed.

After saving everything on her Hunter Card, Choko said, "Now everything is ready."

"Yes." Nero nodded and made the reluctant Luna return to the summons room along with Slime.

Taking Choko in her arms, Nero spread out her beautiful wings and started flying in the sky. The sun was hot, so Nero did not fly very high and used a considerably high speed to avoid feeling hot.

The trip of the two girls in the sky continued, and arriving close to Esfin Town, Nero flew higher, only staying at a low altitude after passing Esfin Town. She didn't have to worry about being followed from the west side since she and Choko had fled to the east side. Their attackers from last night may have disclosed that she had wings, but Nero bet that they did not expect that she could fly for so long carrying Choko in her arms.

Nero was feeling a little tired, so she said, "I'm going to set down for a while to rest. We can continue later."

"Okay, don't try so hard." Seeing that Nero's voice seemed to be tired, Choko said gently, concerned.

"Hahaha. I found you." An aged voice came from a person wearing a green hood, looking like an elf. That person was a little hunchbacked, possibly an elderly person.

The hooded person looked at the sky while murmuring. She had a strange smile under her hood.

It was just then that Choko and Nero descended from heaven, and the moment Nero opened the map, as usual, she saw that she had an enemy nearby.

"Who is it?" Nero shouted, and was on the alert. Choko, seeing Nero's reaction, removed her pair of gauntlets from her Hunter Card.

Coming out from behind a tree, the hooded person, who looked like an elf, said casually in an aging voice, "Have I been discovered? There's no way to make a sneak attack anymore. So this old killer, Dora, is going to have to see you two little girls crying and begging for mercy."

The hood of the goblin woman's cape slowly slid down.

It revealed an old, half-human and half-goblin with red hair and a nose so big, it looked like a potato. The woman also had on her head a pair of big, pointed ears. 

The pale blue eyes looked like blue jewels, unexpectedly clear and calm.

Seeing the level of this murderous old lady made Nero worried. She still needs to rest; it was a bad time for her to fight someone that strong. This murderous old woman posed a greater danger than even the Mutant Tortoise.

"One problem after another... You, old lady, were you hired by the Qin Clan?" Nero sighed tiredly. She did not expect that even a level 6 assassin would be hired. This was not normal. Even though the Patriarch of the Qin Clan was offended, he would not spend so much to hire a murderer of this skill. 'Is there a hidden reason?'

"Smart! I'm here to take you two back. Of course, Miss Choko needs to come back alive, since you..." She didn't have to finish speaking for Nero to understand. She was implying that it didn't matter if Nero herself lived or died, the important thing was to recover Choko.

This was strange since Patriarch Adam Qin didn't even recognize Choko, so why was he doing all this to get her back? Was there anything else that even Choko didn't know?

Choko also was showing a confused expression. She frowned and was trying to guess why that old woman had said that.

Without warning, the assassin Dora disappeared and reappeared in front of Nero with a dagger and cut towards her neck. Nero used her agility to dodge by a hair. She took a few steps back and was chased by the murderous Dora, who attacked her without stopping with her dagger.

Nero materialized a dagger from her inventory and used it to defend herself against the attacks, but because she was a little weak, she was unable to exert 100% of her strength. Choko also tried to help, throwing punches in the direction of Assassin Dora, but it was very slow. She could barely keep up with the old woman's movements.

"Little girl, stay aside. After I take care of this undisciplined girl, I will take good care of you. Kekeke." With a witch's giggle, old Assassin Dora spoke with amusement in her voice.

"Don't say what I should or shouldn't do! Even if I'm not that strong, I will still fight you to the death!" Choko said seriously and continued to attack, using each of her best attacks.

The old Assassin Dora was amazed. She realized that the more Choko attacked, the faster and more powerful she became. It was very strange...

Nero realized that she and Choko alone would not be able to beat this murderous old woman. So, for the first time, she summoned the Mutant Turtle.

[Water Monster [Mutant Turtle] Level F: Level 6 - Summoned!]

The appearance of the big turtle, which looked like a small hill, made the old Assassin Dora demonstrate for the first time some surprise. She realized that this blue turtle was at the same level as herself. Perhaps it was a little weaker, however, with Nero and Choko attacking, the game had turned against her.

In addition, another monster appeared. It was a beautiful wolf and also had a considerably strong strength about it.

"Luna, bite that old woman to death. Big Blue, step on her until she breaks all her bones!" Nero said, cruelly.

'Want to kill me, eh? Okay, let's see if you can do it!' Nero sneaked out some [Essence Coin] and used it to replenish her strength and energy.

The old Assassin Dora found herself in trouble. She began to regret her decision to appear and not try to sneak attack the moment the first attempt failed.. This is what happens when one underestimated an enemy because they believe their opponent is too young or inexperienced.
