LAST TIME:

"Sure I guess-." But I was cut off.

"Everyone Perseus is going to show us some magic!" Tracy yelled as I felt a stab in my heart as this overly enthusiastic snake girl seemed to be killing my mentality slowly.

"Really?" Asked a few with interest as I felt cornered.

"Yep!" She said as chatter began to liven up as the divine spiritualist was going to show off his moves.

"Well then we must take this to the courtyard." Said a new voice as everyone turned to see the queen with Mathew beside her side as I inwardly g.r.o.a.n.e.d.

"Well if everyone insists." Is aid as everyone voiced their opinion for their need of entertainment.

'I guess I will figure out this Artemis look alike sooner or later, for now I need to put on a magic show.' I said to myself.

"Well alright let's go outside." I said as everyone cheered as I sighed and wondered what spell I was going to use to impress the queen and everyone else.

NOW:

PERCY POV:

"I am going to need a target or a sparring partner, I don't care about their level." I said to one of the lamia guards as they looked at one another as I stripped my overcoat off and put on some light leather armor I always kept in my inventory. I still had on my nice pants but I didn't really care about them. I then rolled up my sleeves to my shoulders and stretched a little.

Thankfully there was a large sparring arena about the size of a football field that was in the back of the castle that was used for professional fights for the queen's entertainment. Around half the arena where stands that commoners could sit on and watch the fight and on the other side was an area set aside for royalty with fancy chairs and small tables and that they would use to eat and watch the fights on. Thanks to the party the every chair and table was full as I stood down in the area stretching lightly.

"Perseus are you sure?" I heard Mathew say as I looked over at him as he took stood beside me as the queen seemed to be listening to a guard talk to her about my decision.

"Yeah I am." I said as I pulled my saints sword as I gave it a few twirls and nodded as the oversized sword in my hand. Instead of a normal 3 feet it was 4 feet long instead and felt just as light as normal 2 foot sword would feel.

"What magic are you planning to use?" Asked Mathew as he stared up at the queen with me as I noticed her nod and then the guard was off as the queen looked back down at the area. I could only give a slight nod as I focused on stretching.

"I am thinking of using water magic." I said as Mathew just stared at me.

"You know water magic?" He asked me.

"I know one spell that Zoe taught me for the sake of class, it is simple water manipulation." I said as he nodded. Most magic of the elements only had a few basic spells and even fewer advanced ones the however the first one to learn was always the element manipulation. This spell although the most basic was probably one of the most powerful as well as long as you had the mana to support the control over it.

Still as the spells got more advance they all became stationary spells such as barriers, massive attacks, and even communication ones. An advanced spell also took a very complex magic circle and massive amount of mana to activate. The magic circles also could be used multiple times before needing to be redrawn however due to the requirement of mana it took a few hours for it to be used again. But occasionally an item would be made that would be a dumbed down version of an advanced spell that could be used in active combat but those were few and far in-between.

"So you're planning to use water hmm?" Mathew said as I glanced at him as he scanned me.

"Why what's wrong with water?" I asked him.

"Well I thought you would be using Gaia is all." He said as I laughed.

"In my mind feel that using Gaia is borrowing someone else's strength. I plan to use my own strength in this." I said as he laughed.

"Oh I don't blame you but I would rethink that thought real fast." He said as trumpets sounded as Mathew clicked his tongue.

"Again rethink that thought because you might be getting more than you asked for." He said with a small laugh as Gaia who was sitting on my shoulder looked at me confused as I shrugged. Even Gaia was now in her fairy green combat clothes.

"Perseus I have decided that I you skill will best be seen with a sparring partner. Your combat partner is a level 425 water mage from my court." She said as I suddenly realized why Mathew said that I should ask Gaia for help. Just then 8 foot tall lamia with sea blue scales came into the area holding a trident. Her tail itself stretched out nearly 12 feet and at the back of her tail were small fins that made her almost seem like a sea serpent. Unfortunately I didn't have a high enough [Analysis] level so I couldn't take a peek at her stats so I was a little sad.

"Hello Perseus my name is Jill I will be your opponent for this fight." She said as she held out her trident and gave a salute to her queen. As she did she pulled out a helmet from her inventory and put it on her head. The helmet itself had scales designs on it and a fin on the top, the eye holes only showed her bright blue eyes as they narrowed at me.

"I will be your as well Jill I hope we have a good fight." I said as I felt a stir in my mana as I prepared myself. I also gave a twirl of my sword a few times as I held it in front of me.

"The combat rules will be stated now!" Said a voice as we all turned to the lamia with the knight's armor on.

"There are two ways for one to lose! One is to forfeit or one is to take damage that is more than 50% of their full health." She said as I nodded as I looked at my 28,000 health. Though it was vast for my level I knew that to a level 425 it was about a fourth or fifth of theirs.

"Do you both understand these rules?" She asked us as we both nodded.

"Good! Now you may begin." She said as we turned to one another as I slowly exhaled as I felt my mana churn. At the same time the magic circles on gloves on my hand that I used for my puppet magic began to shine. This was basically a tactic I used to cover up the fact that I could use [no chanting] so I used the gloves to disguise my skill.

"Prepare yourself boy." Said the lamia as the water flowing from underground waterways began to gather around her as she used the same skill as me. However the amount of water was only about 8000 gallons of water.

"I should tell you the same." I said as I felt my body shudder as the water around me began to move. As it did I watched the crowds eyes go wide and even my opponent seemed in shock as nearly 25,000 gallons of water flooded the sky behind me. I could feel the eyes of a certain women burn into me as I ignored the reincarnated hunter.

-6250 Mana

Mana 7750/14000

As my mana depleted by nearly half I shrugged lightly as my massive cloud of water that was nearly the size of a large underground pool floated by me everyone just stared in awe.

"Water arrow." I said as foot long arrows of water began to shoot from my cloud of water as the lamia before me suddenly reacted as my arrows short forward at an incredible speed. The lamia had all the water she controlled move in front of her and form what looked like a tower shield as the arrows struck it. As each did it let out a ringing sound like it was hitting metal as it did no damage to it at all as the lamia still looked shocked.

"Fine then water saber." I said as the arrows stopped firing and half of what was left started to form a massive one sided saber in the air. The saber looked no different from a Chinese saber or one of my favorite sabers I learned to use. Still as the nearly 20 foot saber levitated in the air it began to imitate my own weapon position as I raised it up and struck down. Instantly the massive saber began to move at a great speed and slice down on the shield.

Jill's face hardened as the shield dissolved and formed a halberd as it swung at the incoming saber. As the massive water weapons met in the air it sounded just like a normal metal weapon hitting another. Each of us were forced back as both blades struck one another. I could only growl as I struck out again as did Jill. Each time the massive blades met up in the air a portion of each was destroyed but then reformed. However each portion that was restored made the blades shrink each time.

However due to my control over the water I seemed to be able to meet the level gap between us as both of us never gave an inch. However I knew that if it came to it I would lose in a close combat fight. I knew my strength was many times more than my level but even then it wasn't enough to complete with a level 425 queen's guard. My guess her stats were all at least 150 over her level. If you haven't guessed it a person's level is the normal stat level for them.

So if a person was a level 100 all their stats would be 100 except for luck or faith. Faith was about half the normal at all times and luck was about a tenth of the level. So you could say most my stats were highly abnormal for my level. Still my stats couldn't cover that massive level gap between me and Jill. I could only focus on keeping Jill at bay as my water saber slashed at her again. However this was getting me nowhere as defense was solid, I then glanced back at the remaining 5,000 gallons behind me as I got an idea.

"Try to block this." I said as the water behind me began to move as I continued my barrage of saber strikes at her. At the same time the water behind me began to form three layers of spirals over one another. Two were liquid spirals rotating in opposite directions at high speed and the last layer on the inside was solid ice in a spear like form. However as this formed Jill saw it as her water weapon suddenly began to shift as it once again formed the tower shield but this time it was only the size of her body and was now several times thicker.

"Alright then." I said as I brought all my strength in my arms as I began to focus it in my water saber as I started to perform a skill through the water blade. At the same time the massive water arrow shot towards the shield as it slammed into it. With a massive explosion of water the spear and its multiple layers was embedded into the shield at least a foot. I could only click my tongue as my skill finally activated.

"Watch yourself Jill." I said as the massive blade began to shine with a blue light.

"Hmm…" Jill didn't say anything as she aimed her 8 foot thick water shield at the blade.

"Herculean strike!" I yelled as my strength exploded out with my roar. The massive blade now descended upon her shield with a huge pressure. The blade seemed like it could split a mountain as the descended down upon her. It only took half a second for the blade to hit the shield and explosion of blinding light filled the sky as I close my eyes as it did.

[Water manipulation] damage bonus! 39,300 x 8 + 24,000 = 338,400 Damage!

[Mana Control] damage bonus! 280% of 338,400 damage = 947,520 Damage!

338,400 + 947,520 = 1,285,920 Damage!

[Herculean strike] damage bonus! 1050 x 342 = 359,100 Damage!

[To strong] damage bonus! 359,100 x 2 = 718,200 Damage!

718,200 + 1,285,920 = 2,004,120 Total Damage!

As the massive amount of damage flashed in my mind I couldn't even see what was happening as I was forced to close my eyes. However as the light dissipated I slowly opened my eyes as I was met with a frustrating sight. There stood Jill with what was left of a water shield as it was mostly obliterated yet it still remained intact as I couldn't help but groan.

Alert! Due to level difference 90% of all damage was instantly negated!

"That just isn't fair." I said as I saw the last of Jill's shield fall apart and turned into a fine mist as she turned my way. Her trident firm in her hand as she gave it a few twirls ridding the air for the mist in front of her.

"That was an excellent strike Perseus." She said as I g.r.o.a.n.e.d a little as I considered summoning more water but I felt like it would be useless.

"Thanks…unfortunately our level difference is simply too much. Most of the damage was discarded because of that." I said as she chuckled lightly as she readied her trident as she pointed it at me.

"Well if skill in magic is anything like your skill in swordplay then you have nothing to worry about." She said as I sighed as my sword disappeared from my hand for a much shorter sword than before. I just gave the simple Greek sword a few twirls as Jill looked curiously at the weapon. Due to its leaf like design it didn't resemble many normal swords or weapons that were present in this planet. Due to this I was forced to make this in my blacksmith class and ever since I have kept it.

"This is a simple D class sword so please go easy on it." I said as some people in the crowd laughed.

"You would think Mathew would provide him with better weaponry." Said the queen to her daughters as Mathew sighed.

"We tried but he kept refusing saying that if he is going to get a sword then his is to make it. Talk about pride." He said as the Queen seemed to raise an eyebrow.

"He makes his own weapons?" She asked him.

"Yes, apart from his massive talent in magic and swordplay his is also exceptionally good at many other fields of study such as blacksmithing and alchemy. He is a genesis in all those fields of study." He said as the queen seemed enlightened.

"That is interesting." She said as she turned her attention back to me and Jill as she snake lady began to come forward as I readied myself.

"If I were to strike with my full strength your arms would be broken under the pressure so I will only use half my strength for the sake of the show." She said as I rolled my eyes but said nothing since I knew she was right.

"Very well then come." I said as the leaf like sword was slowly brought up in front of me as I let my body relax. However in the next instant Jill covered the nearly 50 feet in front of her as her trident was already in full stab as I only hand and instant to block or dodge. However I felt my body move on its own as I knew [muscle memory] was kicking in.

The trident passed mere centimeters in front of my c.h.e.s.t as I felt the wind rush by me. Jill seemed somewhat surprised as I slipped past her blade with ease, yet the attack continued as I was forced to dodge again and again as the trident twirled around her in a storm of moves. Each strike was dodged or blocked by myself as she was simply too fast to keep up with.

Each strike my body could only dodge by mere centimeters and each time I blocked her trident it felt my entire body shake. I was even shoved back a few inches each time as well as my arms lightly shook from the powerful blows. Still I force my body to continue as the people around me cheered. Strike after strike I was forced back again and again as her trident had a almost perfect flow to its strikes.

As I continued to play defensive I knew I had to do something or I wasn't going to be able to last much longer. But just as I decided this I ducked under a strike from the back end trident but as I did I saw a huge blue colored tail coming my way. I didn't have enough time to dodge as the huge tail slammed into me and threw me into the air. I could feel my bones creak a little as I was thrown across the arena. As I landed I tumbled on the ground like a rag doll for about 30 feet until I fell into a small water culvert in the area.

-8000 HP

Alert! You have sustained major bruising of the ribs and sustained addition damage!

10% decrease in natural healing.

15% decreased in upper body movement.

120% Increase in breathing pain.

30% Chance increase of major internal bleeding.

Health 20000/28000

As my body g.r.o.a.n.e.d in pain I could feel my c.h.e.s.t throb in pain as I am amazed I didn't break on. Still I slowly managed to pull myself out of the culvert as I stabbed my sword into the dirt to help pull myself out the water. As I did I looked up to see Jill about 20 feet away with her trident planted firmly on the ground.

"I forgot about the tail." I said as I stood up and let the water drip off me as I looked down at my soaked self. I sometimes forget the ease that my old life had with my old powers, yet I didn't pay that any mind as I pulled my leaf sword out of the ground just to find the blade was bent at a very odd angle. I only stared at it for a second before I sighed and tossed it behind me and into the culvert as the now useless blade sunk in the water.

"You shouldn't have." Jill said as I glanced up at the floating Gaia in the air.

"You need my help yet?" She asked me as Jill noticed I hadn't used any spirit magic yet.

"Not quite, give me a second here I want to test something." I said as I slowly started to walk towards Jill as the lamia pulled her weapon free of the ground as I slowly exhaled as I cringed at the pain in my c.h.e.s.t.

"You aren't going to use a weapon?" Jill asked me as I continued walking towards her.

"I don't need a weapon for this." I said as I clenched my fists.

"Then how will you hurt me?" She asked me.

"Easy, martial arts." I said as I suddenly sprinted towards her. In my past life I really wasn't one of those hands only fighters but when the time came I was as powerful as any other martial artist out there and even then some. I got my training from an instructor in Atlantis at the time that taught me the strongest water like martial arts. Its name was first of flowing water crushing rock.

Martial Style: (level 145) (Rank 6) Leg. Fist of Flowing Water Crushing Rock lv-35 (5%)

A lost martial art that only existed on Earth before it was destroyed. This style uses one's body to become like a current of water that can destroy anything in its path. This style is extremely proficient against people with weapons of any kind and redirecting the flow of any object. Any successful blow cannot pass over 25% of its original damage regardless of level difference.

725% more damage when using your hands. (5% more each level)

725% more damage against any b.a.r.e handed opponent. (5% more each level)

72.5% chance to not receive any damage from redirected strike. (.5% less each level)

This precious martial art was the strongest in my old father's arsenal and one of the best in the world. However even though one could redirect the strike one would still get a little damage however if your skill was high enough none would happen at all. However even then without stat difference if I messed up even a little than that 25% would kick me right in the a.s.s. Still I didn't pay that mind as I focused on rushing Jill.

In the next second I was upon her as she lashed out her trident at me. But in with little effort I jumped up and as I did my foot lightly tapped the top of the polearm and receded. What happened next was all the force was sent straight into the ground as Jill seemed shocked that her strike hit the ground even though it wasn't.

But I didn't waste time as I rushed her again as I got inside her guard. But she didn't seem to hesitate as her tail whipped right towards me like a spear with the tip rushing towards me. But again my body moved, due to my body being in the air I wouldn't normally be able to move. However with a simple twist of my legs and an adjustment of my center of gravity I twirled lightly and smashed both my palms down on her tail.

Once again her strike missed me as I landed lightly on the ground as I was propelled over her due to my blow. Jill however seemed a little angry as the tip of her tail seemed to tremble as it seemed to be s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e. With eyes filled with a slight hate she ripped her trident out of the ground and made and large chop blow towards me. Quick as a flash of lighting one of my palms redirected her blow inches from my body as it blew apart the rocks it hit.

My hand trembled slightly due to the power of the strike as I lunged towards her. However this time her tail didn't lash out at me as she actually let go of the trident and threw a punch at me. Like a snake my right arm twirled around hers as the punch blew right past my cheek. I could feel the skin peel off a little as my right hand suddenly gripped her forearm as I used [Rend] to lock her arm in place.

In this moment my left hand clenched in a fist as all my moment began to explode out into it. But as my fist was going fright for her face her own met it in midair. A dull thud ran out as both our firsts blew each other back, but her first was quicker than mine as she threw another. Yet again my arm was like a snake as I latched around her arm as I used [Rend] to seal her arm. Jill tried to pry her arms away from me however this is where my martial arts excelled.

Even if the person was immensely stronger than you this grip didn't allow them to build any strength in their arms. You could almost say this is the Vulcan neck pinch of grips but I wouldn't take it that far. Still as I sealed both her arms I met her eyes through her helmet as I saw her tail on the move. But I wasn't going to get hit by that as pulled Jill down and jumped up in the air.

With precise movements I slowly twisted my body in the air as I forced Jill's arms into an X as my grip slid down to her wrists. As this happened my body was directly above Jill's and in the next second my body fell backwards and I pulled Jill's arms right into her throat. So her elbows were bent and her forearms were pressed right into her throat. As this happened she made a choking sound as her upper body bent backwards.

At the same time both my legs quickly wrapped around her waist but just below her armor so each time she tried to pull her arms up my legs got caught on her armor effectively locking me into place. But as I was choking out Jill with her own arms a sound suddenly sounded in the arena as a voice shouted out.

"That is enough!" The voice said as I felt Jill's body stiffen as I slowly turned around to see the trident inches from my back. Her tail had grabbed the trident and was planning to stab me with it. But around us was something much more dangerous. Floating in the air was nearly thirty 15 foot long spikes made of earth and water. Each one pointing right at Jill and me as I noticed Gaia was floating a few feet away with her hand up in the air as if ready to give the command to the spikes to kill.

Quickly I let go of Jill's hand and slid off her body as Jill began to cough as she shot me a glare but then noticed the massive spikes all aiming in her direction. She then withdrew her angry face as Gaia raised an eyebrow as Jill took the trident out of her tail and put it away in her inventory. At the same time Gaia nodded as all the spears disappeared back to their natural elements.

"Jill…" Said the queen in a demeaning tone as Jill's head sunk down.

"I am sorry my queen I have disgraced you." She said with her head down.

"Perseus are you okay?" Asked Mathew.

"Yes I am fine, just sore." I said rubbing my c.h.e.s.t as Jill glanced at me.

"Now both of you this fight is over, also Perseus you have some extraordinary abilities. I don't think I have ever seen a human with such skill at level 56." Said the queen as I took the compliment.

"I thank the queen for her compliment. Unfortunately I didn't use any spirit magic." I said as the queen held up her hand.

"Gaia actually showed us just how powerful she is." She said as I slowly nodded as I guess that she was right. Even if it was a fraction of a minute it was still enough to see just how powerful Gaia was with just those earth spikes.

"Well I am at fault as well, I didn't hold back once I got her into a hold. I am not used to holding back in most my fights." I said as Mathew and Zoe both snorted at the same time as everyone looked at them as they noticed they were being stared at.

"In his classes he was not one to hold back in fights. Actually he has put nearly every opponent in the infirmary for a week at least once." Mathew said as some nobles looked shocked as they glanced at me as I shrugged.

"I have also had multiple life and death experience and my instincts will always show through unless I fully control them." I added on as Zoe seemed to nod.

"I understand, many of my soldiers have a hard time controlling themselves in some arena matches. But besides that this match was very well thought, since there was no clear winner this will be a draw. Though it is a draw that says much about you Perseus." Said the queen as I took the compliment as I bowed a little.

"Well the night is upon us so I suggest we all get our sleep for the hunt tomorrow." Said the queen as she quickly changed the subject as everyone seemed to agree. At the time Jill slowly left through the door she came from as everyone else began to leave a well. I however slowly made my way over to the culvert as I summoned some of my mana. As I did slowly the water began to move as a warped sword began to slowly rise out of the water.

"Poor blade." I said as I used the water to lift it up to my hand as I examined it. As I did I heard someone land by me as I turned to see Mathew and Zoe.

"I never knew you knew such deadly martial arts." Said Mathew as I put the warped blade in my inventory.

"It isn't that strong." I said as both Zoe and Mathew looked at each other.

"You redirected a blow from a level 425 the level difference alone is a huge matter but you did it multiple times. Whatever martial arts it is I know for a fact that it isn't in possession of our school." Mathew said as I sighed.

"Let's just say it comes together with my ability to use water manipulation so well." I said as Zoe seemed to b.u.t.t in.

"Speaking of that why didn't you ever tell me you had such talent?" She asked me.

"You never let me show you." I said as she seemed to bite back a comment as Mathew snickered a little.

"He is right you know, all you have let him do is use mana manipulation." Mathew said as Zoe shot him a glare.

"I know I just don't understand how you could use the skill so well, let alone have enough mana to use it so summon so much water. Tell me, what is your level in the skill?" She asked me.

"I think it is in the 200's I said as Zoe seemed to have a small heart attack as she just stared at me with an open mouth as Mathew was just the same.

"H-How the hell is it so high?" Zoe asked me.

"I don't know, just when I started to use the magic it felt so natural that it was like my body was already used to using it." I said as Zoe just stared at me.

"It could be due to his soul elements." Said Mathew as Zoe slowly nodded as she just stared at me.

"Well we will talk about this later and possibly have you go through a couple tests when we get back. For now you need to go get some sleep, me and Mathew have a few things to talk about." Said Zoe as I sighed.

"Fine." I said as I slowly began to walk towards my room.

LINEBREAK:

"Greetings." Said a voice as slowly yawned and turned to see a happy faced white tailed lamia with a fancy new bow on her back.

"Morning." I said with a yawn as the young lamia was simply too happy for such an early time. However I simply sat down on a log as I moved my own bow that was on my back, it was as a simple D+ grade bow.

"Why are you so tired?" She asked me as I looked over at her.

"Why are you not tired?" I asked her as she seemed taken aback by the question.

"I like the mornings." She said as I raised an eyebrow.

"A lamia that likes mornings? That is like a vampire that likes the sun." I said as she made a pouty face as I let out another yawn.

"He is right you know." Said a new voice as I turned to see Selena aka Artemis in a thick coat that complemented her silver scales. Due to the sun not being up yet there was a slight chill in the air that also left a dew on the ground.

"Good morning." I said as I looked around to see multiple other lamias in just as thick coats as most even had fires in front of them. I guess their snake half taking more of a toll than one would think. Still Tracy was without a coat as thick at theirs and seemed to be about 3 times more functional their others.

"Morning." Said Artemis as she slithered over to Zoe who was currently sitting across from me as we had a small fire going in front of us. She just sat beside Zoe as her long tail wrapped around the log.

"It is supposed to snow in the next few months so I guess the weather is dropping." I said as looked over our assigned group. In this group we had Tracy, Artemis, Zoe, Me, Mathew, and the queen. We also had several guards that were all much stronger than the guard I fought.

"Hey Perseus." I heard as I mentally sighed as I turned to see Tracy with her overwhelmingly happy face.

"Yes?" I asked her as everyone seemed to turn our direction.

"Can you do the water thing?" She asked me as her mother seemed too threaten to scold her as Tracy didn't even seem to notice as I sighed and nodded.

"Here." I said as I waved my hand as the dew around us slowly began to float off the grass and trees around us. As it did it began to gather around a blob in the middle as it finally resulted in about 2 gallons of water floating in a perfect sphere.

"Cool." Said Tracy as I laughed lightly as I waved my hand again as the water suddenly froze over. But in doing so it became perfectly clear instead of having that white shade to it. As the sphere was completely frozen I tossed it behind me as it landed with a light thud. With that I turned back to the fire to warm myself up a little. Sure the cold didn't affect me but it did bother me.

"Awe." Tracy complained as I ignored the child as I looked around me and towards the queen.

"So what are we hunting?" I asked her.

"We are hunting some monsters that roam the mountains, for the most part we will be hunting wild boar. Though these boars are level 180 war boars, I advise you to watch your back." Said the queen as I shrugged.

"I have face an earth drake before so a simple boar is easy." I said as everyone turned to me as if to see if I was lying. However Zoe could only shake her head and refused to talk.

"Is that so?" Said Artemis as I nodded.

"I was forced to fight it when I was kept as a slave back in my country. It was only a year old drake but I still managed to win." I said as I rubbed my hands together.

"You were a slave?" Asked the queen as I nodded.

"Yes I was however that is behind me, also it seems the hunt is beginning." I said as the sun finally began to make its way over the horizon as I slowly stood up as I watched other nobles getting ready.

"I guess you are right." Said the queen as the hunt was planned to start at sunrise.

"So is there a goal here?" I asked as our group of six began to make its way over to the main group.

"Just hunt and kill." Said Zoe.

"I know that but is there a limit?" I asked her.

"There shouldn't be but if you want to make a game out of it ask the queen." She said.

"Hmm." I thought as the queen seemed to smile a little as I was ignored.

"I would be up for a competition." Said a new voice as I turns to see the Artemis look alike.

"What is the prize?" I asked her.

"Mother?" She asked her as the Queen seemed to think.

"How about the prime cut of each boar you get? I hear that that in each boar there is at least an ounce of some of the ric.h.e.s.t meat you can find from level 100 to 500 in any animal." She said as Artemis seemed skeptical.

"Just an ounce?" She asked.

"Yes but this is some of the most delicate meat you can get. Also the loser must forfeit their meat as well." She said as Selena smiled as she seemed like she had already won.

"Fine." I agreed as this so called prime cut actually sounded pretty good.

"What about me?" Asked Tracy as the Queen laughed.

"You will be traveling with me and the rest of the group. Perseus and Selena will be having their own competitive hunt so we will be leaving them alone. But there are guards placed throughout the woods for the next 15 miles but anything past that there isn't. So be careful Selena." Said the queen as Selena nodded as did I.

"Yes Perseus be careful." Said Mathew as I sighed.

"Fine I will but no guarantee." I said as I slowly began to stretch as my joints popped and cracked. Thanks to my near indestructible body all my ailments were already healed since yesterday.

"So when do we start-?" But I was interrupted as Selena suddenly shot off into the forest at a speed that no human could reach at her level. All I saw was the whip of a silver tail disappear into the woods before I heard a laugh as it turned to see the queen laughing.

"Selena is very competitive. My best advice is to catch up to her. Also don't worry about your kills we have set up an array to prevent monster degeneration. The guards will retrieve the dead bodies as well so you can kill one they proceed on." Said the queen as I was surprised an array like that existed but I guess to get some more rare drops they pulled apart monsters to get them. But I bet this array took years to set up so they were more than likely set up just for hunting purposes.

"Very well then if that is the case. Then I don't have to worry about holding back." I said as I pulled out my bow and summoned my saint's sword on my back from my inventory. In the next second I was rushing through the woods at my fastest speed. One thing was for sure I wasn't going to win if this was a battle of speed so I had one option at this point.

"Gaia where is the densest population of war boars?" I asked her Gaia appeared on my shoulder as she had a frown on her face.

"You're really stupid you know that." She said as I chuckled.

"Just tell me." I said as she sighed and pointed to my west as I changed directions as I felt my blood begin to boil with excitement. The first real monster hunt for me in this life, I could only laugh as I pushed off the ground as a 4 foot crater formed in the ground as I flew through the air.

"Here I come!" I shouted as I already spotted my first boar, it was simply grazing on…a dead deer. Besides that I quickly notched an arrow and aimed it with deadly precision. I was about 45 feet in the air at this point as I let the arrow go. At the same time I began to fall as my feet landed on a tree branch. As I did the sound reached the boar first as it whipped its head towards but as it did the arrow found its eye. As the arrow pierced its eye it sunk all 3 feet into its skull with ease. It didn't even have time to make a sound as its body shuddered and fell to the ground.

Alert! Instant kill spot was hit! Damage done was infinity due to one hit spot!

However I didn't pay attention to the alert as I was already gone as I pushed off the tree branch. You could say I wasn't trained by Artemis and Apollo for nothing, my skill was enough. Even if it was a level 180 it still couldn't survive a blow to the brain. This made my theory of one hit kills to vitals was correct, I could only grin a little bit more as I rushed to the area with all my might.

ARTEMIS/SELENA POV:

I slowly cleaned my blood off my sword as I retrieved it from a level 210 war boar. I could only grin as this made number 12 in the past hour. At the same time I looked up at the sky to see the sun high in the sky. It had been about 4 hours since me and the boy had started our competition…well it wasn't really a completion anymore. I had a total of 213 kills so I knew I was ahead.

As I cleaned my blade of the filth on it I suddenly a loud squealing sound exploded from the forest around me as I was surprised. In the next second the ground began to rumble as I had to lightly steady myself as more squeals began to explode from the forest around me. Just then a stampede of war boars began to enter my vision. Quickly I climbed a tree as my tail wrapped around the trunk.

I knew I could take this many but something raised my interest in stampede as all the war boars didn't seem to be running away but running towards something. As they ran in a certain direction I counted about 50 in just the ones I saw. None of which seemed to pay attention to me in the slightest even though I knew they knew I was there. But as the wave of the stampede ended I slowly slid down the tree and looked in the direction of they were the boars were going.

"Princess." I suddenly heard as I turned to see one of the royal guards come over to me. She gave me a bow as I nodded as I signified for her to go on.

"There seems to be an odd movement in the war boars in the area. I suspect one of boar's leaders is in trouble or one of their kind is being tortured by another beast. I suggest we leave the area for the time being and let this settle down." She said as I turned my head back to the direction of where the boars went.

"What about Perseus?" I asked her.

"I am not sure, our guards watching him haven't reported-." But suddenly she stopped as she held her hand up to her ear. As she did she her face showed one of shock as she quickly removed her hand ending the short distant voice transmission.

"Perseus has been spotted in direction of the stampede. In fact they believe he is the cause of it." She said as I raised an eyebrow.

"Then let us go and save the young man." I said with a sigh as the guard didn't complain and instead nodded as she began to follow me. After a short while another guard joined up with us as I guess mother decided I needed more than just one. I could only sigh at my over protective mother.

"How long until we reach his destination?" I asked them.

"He is a little over a mile away." One of the guards said as all three of us moved at an extreme speed.

"Hmm." I said as we continued on our way. After a few minutes the sound of a battle started to enter my ears due to their extreme sensitivity. However the battle sounded like angry squeals and sometimes a very pained one that was instantly cut short. I could tell someone was fighting the war boars but I couldn't tell who though.

"Princess." A new voice said as me and my guards slowly came to a stop as more than 20 guards all gather around me. Each one of my mother's prized royal guards that all had a level at least 700. Still as I saw the large amount of them I was confused as I slithered forward towards them.

"So where is Perseus?" I asked knowing that if something bad happened to him something bad would happen to us as a nation.

"He is just over the ridge your majesty but currently he is fighting the boars." Said a tiny but sweet voice as I turned to see Perseus's divine spirit floating in the air a couple feet from the guards.

"Gaia." I said with a bow as did all the guards. However Gaia just raised her hand as she looked over all of us.

"Do not bow it is not fitting for a princess." She said as she floated over as I noticed she was wearing a light green leaf dress. She simply floated in front of her as her delicate fairy wings flapped occasionally.

"Shouldn't you be with Perseus?" I asked her.

"I am here to keep a track of him for the most part, however he is having his fun right now so I ask you all to not disturb him." She said as I raised an eyebrow as I slowly moved closer to ridge as a horrific scene entered my vision.

Over the ridge was a small grass plain but instead of normal grass there was war boar bodies littered for nearly 3 football fields. Each one killed by precise sword slice or arrow to a vital point. Some were even twitching still as their blood drained from their bodies, in total I think there was more than 300 dead boars on the ground. But some of them had weird wounds on them as well. Spots of heads looked to be simply gone as if something had bitten them off.

However the thing that caught the eye was Perseus himself as he was laughing like a mad man as he wielded a C rank sword with deadly precision. At least a hundred boars surrounded him in a hoard as he was fighting one after another. His blade finding neck after neck and heart after heart as the blade was forced through the steel like fur like a hot knife through butter. Yet even with multiple boars attacking him at once he was not being hit at all.

He flipped through the air skill beyond that of a 13 year old as he dodge each rush after rush. But each time he was in the air his sword made a silent flash as it embedded itself between the ribs and right into the heart. With a twist of his body the blade was removed from the boar as the boar shuddered and collapsed on the ground.

Just then Perseus landed on the ground but his sword was quickly stabbed right into the eye of a boar that was rushing him. The blade went all the way to the hilt as the massive boar's face fell to the ground and made a trench from the force he built up. Perseus just stood on the boar as the face of the beast plowed a trench in the ground. With that he ripped the blade from the skull of the boar as he continued on killing the boars around him.

Blood fell like rain and dies the green grass red and the only sound was the cries of the boars and Perseus's laugh that sounded like a monster in its own tone. His blade was smeared with blood as well as his armor was soaked with it. However you could see the madness in his eyes as he killed every boar around him. Even with the level difference he didn't seem to be having any trouble as his blade cut through everything in his path.

"Oh my god." I said as the guards and myself all watched in awe as Perseus cut through a boar's throat and then rammed the blade right between the eyes of another.

"Indeed Perseus does have a side like this. It is best none of you interfere until he has had his fill." Said Gaia as she turned to see Perseus use [Rend] to rip off the tusk of a level 200 boar and then stab him with it through the eye with it.

"He seems like a bloodthirsty monster." I said as Gaia turned back to me.

"He is what he is and I cannot fully deny that fact. Since he was young Perseus has seen his world fall apart many times since he was young. He has fought for his life many times over since he has been born. You can say this side of him has developed in that time, his hate turning into what you are seeing now." Gaia said as I slowly gulped as I watched this mere level 56 rip through a horde of level 200's with skill alone.

"…" I couldn't say anything as I felt a throb in my c.h.e.s.t at the thought of his past pain. Gaia however turned back to the sight as Perseus continued his slaughter. He had just stabbed one through the c.h.e.s.t and ripped the blade out sending blood spurting in the air as he was left panting in the blood rain. At this point the war boars were no longer attacking him out of spite as the remaining 20 boars all stood 50 feet away.

"Scared?" Asked Perseus in a panting voice as all the boars shuffled and snorted out vapor as some dug their hooves into the blood soaked ground.

"I would be to." He said as he gave a smile through his blood soaked face. Just then from the forest on the other side of the plains began to stir as Perseus frowned as he turned his attention to the trees.

"Your boss finally decided to show up." He said as he spit out a mouthful of blood. At the same time the boars surrounding Perseus slowly began to move back as the trees began to break apart as a 40 foot tall boar slowly began to emerge from forest. Its fur was dark red instead of brown and one of its eyes was scarred over. However its tusk were as thick as trees and the points looked as sharp as any spear.

As it emerged from the forest most the guards looked shocked as the king of the boars slowly emerged. It was at least 4 times larger than all the other boars and as I stared at it but then I blinked as I saw the level on it.

"We need to intervene." I said as I moved forwards but suddenly Gaia raised her hand as she stopped all of us from moving. Her tiny 8 inch form simply floating in the air as she watched the scene before her.

"Let him handle it. If anything happens I will take responsibility." She said as I shot a glance at Perseus as he ignored the smaller boars as they all retreated.

"What a pitiful king." He said as he swung the blade removing all the blood from it. As he did the boar began to stamp its hoof as the whole valley trembled. The 2 inches of blood on the ground even rippled as Perseus glanced down and then back at the boar.

"You going to just taunt me? Come and get me." Perseus said as we made a motion for the boar to attack him. That did it as the boar roared out in pure fury as it began to rush him. Perseus didn't seem phased as he lifted his sword and pointed it as the boar as he covered the 300 feet in nearly an instant he reached the blood pool something happened.

In a split second all the blood around Perseus exploded upwards as if an explosion spell had hit it. All the blood was thrown up into the air and formed a wave and moved towards the boar, the boar tried to stop as it was shocked from the wave of blood but it couldn't. I just gaped in awe as the wave of red blood consume the huge boar and then proceeded to form of swirling dome around it.

"You think you were my match?" I heard as I focused to see Perseus outside the dome with a cruel smile on his face.

"Now drown in the blood of your sons and daughters." He said as he clenched his fist as the dome suddenly began to shrink as it continued to shrink and shrink. As this happened Perseus seemed to be straining himself as both his nostrils began to have blood flowing out of them. You would even see the veins in his eyes bulging as you could tell he was struggling to control the blood.

But after a few minutes the dome finally stopped shrinking as it suddenly fell apart as the blood formed a wave. The wave was only about a foot high as the dome collapses revealing the body of the boar but it wasn't moving at all. Just then Perseus collapsed onto his knees as he forced himself to stay up as his nostrils kept bleeding. Small droplets mixing in with the large pool of blood.

"God that hurt." He said as he slowly began to stand up just as Gaia gave us the nod to move as we all slithered over to Perseus. As we did Perseus slowly turned to us as he was still using his sword to support himself.

"Oh princess." He said with pure surprise as he tried to stand up properly but I raised my hand as I looked at the boar behind him. As I looked closer I could see a large amount of blood flowing out of its nose and mouth. I then turned to him as he was now sitting on a stone seat that Gaia had summoned for him.

"What did you just do?" I asked him.

"I force a large amount of blood inside him and made his organs burst. After that I force it into his veins and made his heart burst. I don't think I will ever be doing that again." He said as he wiped his nose as he sighed a little.

"I have never heard of such a method to kill something." I said as I honestly didn't.

"Well I knew there was a mass of liquid around me so I had to put it my use. However I didn't actually know it would work." He said as I stared at the dead boar.

"That is indeed…interesting." I said.

"Yeah just went for the one hit kill spots." He said as he put away his sword in his inventory as I noticed he was now clean thanks to Gaia.

"Selena!" I heard as I turned around to see my mother and just about every guard and royal in the area as they passed over the ridge to find the massive slaughter before them. Just then Mathew and Zoe appeared with them as well.

"I am fine mom." I said as my mother slithered over to me as she looked me over then the area as surprise filled her face.

"What happened here?" She asked me.

"Guilty." Said a voice as my mother turned to see Perseus sitting on his stone chair.

"Y-You killed them all?" Asked the queen as Perseus nodded.

"Yeah I really wanted to win that competition." He said with a calm face as my noticed Mathew walking his way.

"Still this many." Said the queen as she looked around her.

"Actually including the big guy and all the others I killed I am at 376 kills right now." He said as I felt a chill when I heard that number.

"At least you are okay." Said Mathew as Perseus nodded.

"For the most part." He said as he put his thumb to his nostril and snorted out a blood clot from both holes.

"So am I the winner?" He asked as I sighed.

"I guess." I said as he smirked as he slowly stood up.

"Well then I guess I am going to dine like a king tonight." He said as smiled as I rolled my eyes. Somehow just his face made me a little angry at him.

"Still you didn't have to go so far." Said Zoe as he shrugged.

"I am in need of the levels." He said with a shrug as I swore he thought this was a game of a sort.

"I get that but still you didn't need to go out and kill so many, wait for the dungeon next time. Now all these guards have to clean this all up." He said as Perseus just shrugged.

"Well get yourself cleaned up we-." But Mathew stopped talking as he suddenly looked up at the sky as did my mother at the same time. Everyone including myself was confused as we all turned to the sky.

"All of you get back." Mathew said as he waved his hand as suddenly I felt my body pick up off the ground as everyone was forced backwards 100 feet. The only one that didn't float back was my mother as she moved to Mathew's side as they both continued to look towards the sky.

"Gaia what is happening?" Perseus asked his spirit as I glanced at him.

PERCY POV:

As I asked Gaia the issue suddenly the clouds in the sky broke apart as a black dot appeared in the sky. I didn't even have time to blink as whatever was in the sky slammed into the ground like a bomb as I was forced to block my eyes from the dust. Even Zoe and Artemis did the same as a large cloud of dust spread out from them.

After a second the wind and dust storm died down a I slowly opened my eyes as I turned to see 10 foot crater with a shadow of what looked to be a human in the dust cloud. However both Mathew and the Queen didn't seem phased as they both stood silently in front of the dust cloud. However after a second a coughing sound was heard as the person in the dust slowly began moving forward as they waved their hand.

"Damn I overshot it." Said a male's voice as Mathew and the queen still remained silent. Just then the dust cleared as an older looking gentleman with brown hair with a touch of gray in it appeared. He also had some a light beard that was also white with age, he looked like your average general in a way. However his clothes were simple black ones with and interesting design on it.

"Sir." Mathew said as the man stopped waving his hand and glanced at Mathew and the queen as if he hadn't noticed them.

"Oh well excuse me for intruding I won't be staying long." He said with a carefree smile.

"Sir may we assist you in getting to your location?" Asked Mathew.

"Oh you might be able to actually, I am looking for a field dungeon around here. I am to acquire a certain herb that the boss drops." He said as his cheerful eyes scanned the area as they suddenly landed on me as they stopped for a moment as I felt his gaze penetrate right through me.

'Gaia what is that man's level?' I asked her.

'I-I can't tell. Something is blocking me out.' She said in a scared voice.

"Sir you location is just 1000 miles to the west." Said the queen as the man nodded however he wasn't looking at her he was looking right at me. Mathew noticed this as he moved in the mas view as he looked at Mathew.

"Sir might I inquire you to stop staring at my student." He said as the man smirked.

"Oh I am sorry it is just…" Somehow his gaze met me again as he slowly took a step forward. But as he did before Mathew and the queen could move the man was not but a foot in front of me as my whole body shook. Just his aura was enough to send chills down my back as he leaned forward and observed me with a hand on his chin.

"To think there would be some alive still." He said as Mathew and the Queen finally reacted as they both turned around as the man didn't seemed phased.

"Sir! Can you please step back!" Mathew yelled as his aura flared as the man still stared at me.

"Well I am going to have to fix this." He said as he slowly reached out towards me but suddenly Gaia flew in front of me as the man's eyebrow twitched.

"I cannot let you touch my master-." However before Gaia could finish her sentence the man's hand shot forward as his hand backhanded Gaia. With a boom Gaia let out a scream as she was sent flying away as her body suddenly exploded into ash. I was too shocked to do anything as the man's aura suppressed all my power.

Alert! Due to massive level difference all body movements are sealed!

Alert! Gaia's divine spirit body has been broken and 2 weeks will be needed to repair with current mana supply!

I didn't even manage to read the alerts as the man swiped his hand again as a barrier appeared around us as I saw multiple attacks hit it as Mathew and the queen were bombarding it. Even Zoe and Artemis were pounding away.

"There we go now-." However just as he was about to grab my head he stopped as he seemed to have sense something as he looked up in the sky as if an invisible pressure was boring down on him.

"Oh?" He made a very surprised tone as his face contorted into one of frustration.

"You think your threat will prevent his death!?" He yelled up at the sky as suddenly his face contorted again.

"So I just can't kill him? Fine then I will send him to a place that he will die." He said as his hand fell on top of my head. In the next second the sky before me flashed with multiple colors and it then felt like my body was being torn apart. The next second I passed out but not before watching the man's face suddenly show pure fear and then my world went black.
