Chapter 190: The Pure Ancient Mana and the Guardian Part 3
Chapter 190: The Pure Ancient Mana and the Guardian Part 3
If based on the memories of the pixie alone, the one who took over the body of her father is capable of using dark magic and demonic magic alongside the ability to command various demonic beasts. It sounds annoying as heck but it's not that troublesome compared to the beast causing the Crazed Phenomenon Disorder.
"Oyah? I think I am seeing things. Is that a human? What is a human doing in this forest?" the male pixie floated near me as if trying to grasp my intention. However, I am not a patient person, and seeing a pixie carelessly do that near me only makes him more dangerous.
Without any warning, I grab him with my bare hands. I didn't even bother to let him speak. Even though he was the father of this unconscious pixie, as long as he is someone corrupted by the demonic energy, I will not hesitate to defeat any of them.
"Heh, a mere human is trying to kill me? You dare to do-"
"Shut up and die quietly. I am not in the mood to talk," I said and started squeezing the tiny pixie in my hand.
"Hmph, let me see you try once I get out of here... urgh..." he tried exuding his power to my arm. However, this power is not even strong enough to lift my finger. I am not expecting this power of the pixie to be this weak. Since I am now annoyed to the point of boredom, I looked into the squirming pixie and ignited my free hand.
"M-magic?! A human that can use magic?!"
"Surprised? Then, that is the last thing you need to see. Now, die and disappear completely."
"Damn it! Demons! Attack!"
The hounds that are on standby in the distance started attacking. To normal people, that is dangerous. To someone like me, those guys are nothing. I sighed and snap my fingers. Before the hounds can even get near, lightning strikes fell from the sky, straight to all of the incoming demonic creatures.
ZAP! ZAP! ZAP!
Quick but lethal lightning strikes immediately ended the lives of the demonic creatures trying to attack me. The pixie is terrified beyond his imagination as he tried to squirm out of my hand.
"Impossible, this is not happening- GAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!"
I ignited my palm holding the pixie, at the maximum temperature. Before he can even try to escape, his body is reduced to dust. I also saw that before his body got burned completely, it transformed into an indescribable monster before it was reduced to ash.
"Confirmed entity. You have killed a body eater. It is a slime-like creature that is also considered to be a parasitic demonic creature that devours other beings to give form to itself. Anything it has devoured before can be used by this creature as its disguise. It also can read the minds of the previously devoured creatures and individuals."
Body Eater. One of the creatures that have been in the records of monsters to look out on Earth that might have blended with the humans according to the list of Demonic Creatures that might have existed with the humans alongside with the demons. Aside from demons, Body Eater is also a priority to be killed without hesitation as they would never be able to be tamed as normal monsters and spirits do. The moment you see one, you kill them.
"So body eaters are also existing in this world and already managed to devour a pixie? Damn, this is much serious than I thought it would be."
"Indeed. Demonic entities are also more rampant here so we will expect to see demons soon."
No wonder the demons in the isekai novels are always causing wreck and chaos all over the place. It is because they are also the same demons that exist on Earth. They just have more influence here since they are a threat that has high notoriety to the people.
Confirming that a pixie that has been devoured by the Body Eater and a few wolves infected by the dark essence of the chaos has appeared, I scanned the area for the immediate check to make sure that there will be no more attacks as the two of my companions have yet to awaken. After a few minutes of scanning, I confirmed that it is already safe and the enemies I just killed earlier are the last ones left.
"Now, what should we do with this little pixie and this Pure Ancient Mana?" I asked Blue.
"We don't need the Pure Ancient Mana and you don't have any need to use it either. You just keep it in safety for now and let the pixie have it once she wakes up."
"Understood."
I opened the chat group and click the tab of Item Rankings. Most of the items known in the magic world are all listed here so if you wanted to know what is the rank of the Ancient Mana, then you will have to search it. It is in alphabetical order so I only needed to check the items listed with the letter A at the beginning. It took me a few minutes before I found it.
Ancient Mana
Rank: SSS
Info: [Redacted](only high ranking magicians can view the info)
I can understand why the info is redacted since Blue have mentioned it to be one of the most sought things by some magicians and the item is also a limited stock thing so it's normal.
"Ngh... what the... where am I?"
I look into the tent and notice that Ishana has finally opened her eyes after getting hit by the darts earlier. Looks like the effects of the darts have finally been wavering.
"Looks like you are now alright. We are in a clearing in a forest near the road we are walking in."
"Ugh, I can't remember what happened, my head is a little bit hazy than usual..." Ishana rubs her forehead a little bit.
"You can rest for a while since it is already night time. You don't need to stand for now and continue with the rest."
"Nah, once I woke up from my slumber, I don't need to sleep again. By the way, I want to ask you, what are those things smoking near you?"
Then she pointed into the demonic beings that I toasted earlier with the Lightning strike.
"No need to worry, they are just nuisances. I already disposed of them."
