"Fuck, this is not how I expected my day to go," Kent muttered, looking around him. Bodies of beasts he had slain lay strewn on the ground.
He had just stepped into the inner section of the Flame Valley, yet the danger he found himself in wasn't one he expected. Of course, he dealt with it, but the energy expended in the battles was much more than he used for the other flame beast he killed in the outer section.
The last beast he took down was the same as the first beast he killed when he stepped into the Flame Valley. But this one had already reached the Core Formation and had refined its core three times.
Of course, its bloodline remained unawakened, but it was already too dangerous to be underestimated. So Kent took the battle seriously.
Thankfully, he wasn't some weak, overconfident brat who chose to throw his life away. Kent has the strength to back up his arrogance, so he used it to continue moving forward.
