Nero, The Legendary Hunter

"Are you hungry?"

As they rode on Big Blue's back, Nero asked Choko this while holding two apples. Choko nodded and Nero handed her the apple. "If it's still not enough, speak up, I have more here with me. I also have water."

*Crack!*

While eating, Big Blue ended up breaking a tree that was in the way. Nero seeing this, said, "Big Blue, be careful. Don't destroy the trees that much."

"..." Big Blue did not make a sound, but she seemed to understand, as she started to dodge the trees.

Luna was following behind them, looking particularly happy, as she liked to run and also the feeling of being free.

*Howl!*

Luna suddenly howled. Nero of course, had the map open and knew why. In front of them, a monster had appeared. It was a Level 4 Brown Bear.

"Big Blue, hit it with a jet of water." Nero ordered.

Big Blue opened her giant mouth and a jet of water went towards the bear that didn't even have a chance to dodge, hitting the bear's head, creating a big hole clean through the forehead.

Summoned Monster [Mutant Turtle] defeated the Earth Monster: [Grizzly Bear] Rank F: Level 4.

Nero jumped up and got in front of the Brown Bear and stored it in her inventory.

After doing so, she jumped back and landed on Big Blue's back. "Continue."

This was not the first time this had happened along their journey, it was the tenth time that a monster appeared in front of them. Before, it had been four level 3 bears and this bear was the sixth level 4.

"Nero, are you saving them to use <Plunder> on them later?" Choko asked.

"Yes, we cannot waste time on this now. After all, I can use plunder on them anytime," Nero replied. But in fact, she didn't want to use the Hunter Card when using <Plunder>; Nero prefered to use the system, since the reward was several times greater.

"I understand. In fact, we are close to the Nan Empire Capitol City," Choko said.

"The sooner we arrive, the better." Nero stated, "Also, we need to tell Jana, Jair, and Breno that we are going to enroll at Hunter school. I don't know what their reaction will be, but they may also decide to join us."

"Yes, I was thinking the same thing," Choko said. After all, she liked her party very much, and if possible she wanted to spend more time together with them. If they ended up coming to the Nan Empire and enrolled, it would be ideal.

Nero thought of something and took a level 6 monster core from her inventory. She then said, "Choko, take this and absorb the energy while we're still on Big Blue's back."

"Are you sure? Isn't that a level 6 monster core?" Choko wanted to be strong, but she also didn't want to be solely depending on Nero.

"Relax. Later we'll defeat some monsters and you can pay me. It's not like I want to use this now. Just accept it, please," Nero said with a relaxed smile.

"Okay, I promise to pay you as soon as I can!" Choko said firmly. She decided to first become stronger and then pay off the debt she owed Nero. After all, the stronger she was; the easier it would be for her to kill the monsters.

The journey continued as Choko absorbed the mana energy from the monster core.

Nero, meanwhile, took some [Essence Coin] and started to absorb it using the system.

Due to her current level, even though she absorbed coins several times, the value of her points did not increase. She then decided to use it more than 1 time.

'134 [Essence Coin] were used and each time gave the same amount of points...' Nero came to the understanding that each coin had the same amount of energy within it.

Seeing that 9 monster cores were missing, and she had 10 monsters in her inventory, she realized that she still needed to use <Plunder> on the bodies of these monsters and level up in a calm place. Now was not the best time. The next time she and Choko stopped at camp, she intended to do just that.

Big Blue was a level 6 monster. Because of this, many monsters avoided coming close to their direction when they felt her presence. However, there were always some exceptions, which was the case now. A herd of coyotes surrounded their traveling group and showed their sharp teeth, with drool dripping from their mouths, while looking at Nero and the rest of them hungrily.

Among these coyotes, there were a total of 15 of them and most were at level 3 and only 6 of them were at level 4.

"Nero, let me try to deal with them!" Choko was very confident after absorbing only 1 core of a monster. With only 1 core, she had experienced very significant improvements.

"Okay, I'm going to leave them to you. If anything, Luna can always help you in the fight," Nero thought and then said.

Choko wore her pair of red gauntlets and jumped off Big Blue's back. Landing on the ground, she started attacking the coyote herd.

With the increase in her strength, her agility in movement also increased. Choko arrived in front of the first coyote and punched him.

*Bang!*

"Urghh!"

The coyote was thrown away while screaming in pain.

Choko punched another coyote who was jumping towards her, becoming an easy target for her to hit. She also kicked another coyote with her right foot and then punched another with her left hand, and it quickly continued in sequence as she was repeatedly surrounded.

*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*

When a coyote was about to sneak up on Choko's right foot, Choko pretended not to see but raised her foot very fast and went down even faster.

*Bang!*

The coyote's head, which was crushed by Choko's foot, was buried in the dirt floor. By the time she lifted her foot off the coyote's head, she had already spun her foot, hitting another coyote coming towards her. And while she spun, she saw the next target and kicked the ground and went towards the coyote and punched up and down, hitting the coyote's head.

This continued for the next 20 minutes.

"My God! I can't believe I made it..." Choko was shocked by her own strength. The more she fought the harder she continued to fight. Now on the ground, 15 dead coyotes were scattered.. Choko looked in Nero's direction and smiled, showing all her white teeth, and said, "Nero, you can keep this as a form of payment for the monster cores."
