Chapter 117 The Real Trump Card
The cool moonlight spilled across the earth, and the tranquil forest echoed with the croaking of frogs and the chirping of insects. Fireflies flitted about, creating a beautiful scene of natural harmony.
Roy leaned against a big tree. When the effect of the LV.7 trial card wore off, he felt like his whole body was about to fall apart. He cursed under his breath. That dead pig (Ota) was really tough. No wonder he grew up under the fists of Zeus and Hera's family.
Just as Freya's Familia had guessed, he wasn't LV.8. Although his stats were higher, he was still at the same level. He clashed head-on with Ota, who was going all out, and he also suffered considerable damage.
Of course, it's not as serious as the other person's situation.
Of course, Freya's Familia couldn't find him. In the instant the battle ended, he had already escaped, taking advantage of the dust that blotted out the sky.
As long as he doesn't enter the dungeon, he can teleport to other worlds at any time; that's his true trump card.
Otherwise, trying to deal with Orario's strongest Familia with just a LV.7 trial card would be suicide!
As the invincible power of LV.7 gradually faded, an endless sense of emptiness followed. Falling from the peak of the clouds to the bottom of the valley, Roy clicked his tongue, feeling little. The trial card was just a trial card, not his own power. Being too attached to it would only lead to a lower level of weakness.
Using this trial card, I slapped Freya's Familia hard, vented my anger, and glimpsed the "strongest" peak of Orario, which was enough.
One day, he will grow to that level! And defeat "The Mighty" Otto in a fair and square manner!
Name: Inuyasha Level: LV.2 LV.6
Introduction: Five hundred years ago, during the Warring States period in the island nation, demons, monsters, and ghosts lurked everywhere.
Main task: Hunt down the centipede witch, reward 50 attribute points.
Bonus mission: Hunt down Naraku and his clones. Reward:
Roy opened the instance panel. Hunting the Centipede Demoness was relatively easy. He had chosen this instance world before fighting Freya's Familia.
There are still many things to do in Orario, and Freya, that crazy woman, won't let it go easily.
He needed to complete his main mission quickly and return to Orario. The Centipede Witch wasn't that powerful; exorcists and mages in this world could easily kill her.
"Grandma Feng, I really saw a boy here, lying under the big tree."
"Besides monsters, who else would be in the forest at night?"
Several figures emerged from the bushes and came before Roy. They were several farmers and an old woman dressed as a witch, with an eyepatch over her right eye.
When they saw Roy under the big tree, the group froze, their faces showing wariness.
Grandma Feng cautiously approached, took out a bag, and sprinkled a handful of coarse salt on Roy. Seeing no reaction, she said, "It's a human."
Don't worry."
Roy brushed the coarse salt off his body; this was an ancient method used in the island nation to identify monsters.
"What are you doing in a place like this?"
"Fighting with a wild boar—"
Grandma Feng and Roy exchanged questions and answers.
Grandma Feng looked at Roy with a meaningful gaze, and finally sighed, "If you don't have a place to stay, you can stay here temporarily."
"Thank you, then I won't be polite."
Roy laughed, saying that he had been bumped by that dead pig (Ota), and his whole body ached and his head was spinning. It would take him at least a day or two to recover.
Although he had food and a tent in his spatial ring, he didn't want to camp out in the forest.
Especially since this world has all sorts of monsters.
Roy followed the group back to the village and stayed in Granny Maple's simple wooden house.
"Drink up, we don't have much else in this small place." Granny Feng poured Roy a bowl of hot soup.
Roy took the hot soup, looked down, and saw a few pieces of carrot at the bottom and a few unfamiliar wild vegetables floating on the surface. He took a small sip.
It has only a slight salty taste.
For Roy, the taste was a bit bland. Apart from when he first arrived in Orario and ate hard bread for a while, he had been eating lots of meat and fish ever since.
His tastes have become very discerning.
Roy didn't say anything, after all, it was a kind gesture, and drank the warm soup in one gulp.
"In this chaotic era, I don't want to ask too much about your origins." Granny Feng pushed the fire with a wooden stick. On the way back to the village, she had already noticed that the boy's words and actions were completely different from those of a country bumpkin, and he must be from the capital.
In such a small place, even a rat would starve to death if it came, so there's nothing there to attract them.
"Thank you!" Roy said, expressing his gratitude. Grandma Feng was a truly kind person.
After resting at Granny Feng's place for a night, Roy used several Noah's Healing spells on himself and recovered to about 70-80%. This magic takes effect slowly, but it's very effective.
Releasing it in the forest will also grant a boost.
Amazing, Miss Ryu!
The next day.
Roy was about to go out to look for the centipede when he suddenly saw the villagers gathered in one place.
When he crawled over and took a look, it was exactly as he expected.
A girl dressed in a sailor uniform is tied to the ground; her attire and appearance are completely different from those of this ancient world.
She is Kagome Higurashi, the reincarnation of the priestess Kikyo. Because of the Shikon Jewel within her, she traveled from the Well of Bones to the Sengoku period five hundred years ago.
He was then captured by the villagers and tied to the ground.
Roy stepped forward and smiled, "You're from the modern world, aren't you? — That might sound strange, but this is five hundred years in the past of your world. You traveled through the well in the shrine."
Kagome's eyes widened instantly, and she immediately understood the situation. She looked at Roy and asked, "Are you one of them too?"
When fellow villagers meet, their eyes well up with tears!
But Roy wasn't from her hometown. He turned to Granny Feng and said, "Granny Feng, look closely. Doesn't her face look like someone?"
Upon hearing this, Granny Feng approached and was startled. She grabbed Kagome's cheek and examined her closely. "Make your expression more intelligent."
Kagome couldn't help but roll her eyes; she was already very intelligent!
"Could it be..."
Kagome's increasingly familiar face made Granny Kaede look at Roy in disbelief.
Roy smiled and said, "That's right, just as you thought. She is the reincarnation of the priestess Kikyo."
Grandma Feng's eyes welled up with tears.
The misunderstanding was finally cleared up, the villagers dispersed, and Roy and Kagome went to Grandma Kaede's house.
"Thanks to you, otherwise I don't know how long I would have been tied up by them." Kagome rubbed her sore wrists and ankles and said gratefully.
After Roy's explanation, she finally understood what kind of era she had arrived in.
There was no law, and everything was chaotic and disorderly.
Kagome was terrified. Being kidnapped and brutally murdered by bandits was commonplace, and monsters roamed freely, which was simply unimaginable.
"I'm also temporarily staying here, but I arrived a day earlier than you," Roy said with a smile. His gaze subtly swept over Kagome's side, where he could faintly sense a fluctuation of energy.
That is the Shikon Jewel!
