Chapter 10 - Daiyu’s Rampage!
This was an unknown area,
where the mist made it impossible to see clearly,
and thus, Wu Chi couldn’t tell if there were monsters hidden within the fog.
However,
the scorching fireball would not lie!
Danger!
Wu Chi narrowed his eyes, calmly retreating, preparing to use the fence to block the fireball’s attack.
But,
just as the fireball was about to strike, and as Wu Chi was retreating,
a figure suddenly flew out behind him!
Clang—!
The sound of a sword ringing,
and the sword in Wu Chi’s hand was instantly snatched away.
The next moment,
a graceful woman appeared, holding a longsword and slashing at the fireball!
Boom—!
A loud explosion rang out,
fire and debris spread in all directions, and then, invisible shockwaves dispersed the flames, revealing Lin Daiyu’s stunning face.
“I almost forgot, Daiyu is here.”
Wu Chi stopped, feeling his heart settle with relief.
With such a powerful fighter around,
he had nothing to fear!
After slashing through the fireball, Lin Daiyu stepped back, holding the longsword with both hands.
Her beautiful eyes blinked, filled with warmth, as she smiled and said, “Young master, here is your sword.”
“Daiyu knows swordsmanship?”
Wu Chi asked.
Lin Daiyu shook her head, softly replying, “I don’t know how to wield a sword, I simply use raw strength to overpower it.”
“Alright.”
Wu Chi took the sword and lowered his gaze, noticing her long, slender fingers,
white as jade, with her delicate joints slightly bending, radiating a graceful charm.
“Young master, there are more.”
Lin Daiyu smiled sweetly, noticing Wu Chi’s gaze but saying nothing about it, instead, she gently reminded him.
Hearing this,
Wu Chi snapped back to attention and quickly turned to look.
Through the mist,
more than ten figures rushed forward,
most of them were the small red-skinned monsters from before, but the one standing out was much larger, holding a ram’s skull staff and hunched over like an elderly figure.
“A magic-type monster?”
Wu Chi’s heart stirred, realizing where the fireball had come from!
But…
while the ten or so small monsters weren’t too much trouble,
the magic-type monster seemed like something he couldn’t handle alone!
“How about this: I’ll let Daiyu handle the magic monster, and I’ll take care of the small ones?”
Wu Chi thought to himself.
At that moment,
Lin Daiyu seemed to have read his mind. She smiled, and in a soft voice, said, “Young master, let me take care of them.”
“Ah? Alright! You go first…”
Wu Chi’s words hadn’t even finished.
Lin Daiyu sprang into action, leaping over a hundred meters in a single bound, charging straight toward the monsters!
“Raka~!”
“Raka~!”
“Gah!”
The monsters immediately grew agitated, letting out bloodthirsty cries,
while the magic-type monster gathered its magical energy,
and on its staff,
a fireball began to swirl and grow larger!
However…
the next second!
Boom—!
Lin Daiyu slammed her foot into the ground, shattering the earth beneath her.
A terrifying shockwave spread out, knocking the monsters off balance,
and several unlucky small monsters were impaled by the flying debris!
The magic monster had its spell interrupted, screaming in agony, nearly vomiting blood.
After regaining its balance,
it was about to resume casting when it suddenly found its staff missing!
“?”
It turned in shock to see that its staff had been taken away!
A graceful figure, holding the staff,
used it as a club,
and struck it down!
Slap—!
It was as if a tofu block had been smashed,
and the monster’s head collapsed,
splitting into pieces.
Blood and brains splattered in all directions.
Lin Daiyu had already stepped back,
and with one swift movement, the staff became a deadly weapon, easily tearing apart the bodies of each monster.
Three seconds later, all the monsters were down,
and Lin Daiyu tossed the staff aside, walking back to Wu Chi.
“Young master, I didn’t fail you.”
Her voice was soft, her appearance delicate as ever, in stark contrast to the violent killing just moments ago.
“…”
Wu Chi silently gazed at the massive crater Lin Daiyu had created,
a crack nearly four to five meters long!
If that had struck him…
Wu Chi shuddered, swallowing nervously, and awkwardly said, “Impressive, impressive!”
“Young master flatters me.”
Lin Daiyu’s voice was soft, and surprisingly, she wasn’t covered in blood,
while Wu Chi’s clothes were dirty and stained.
It was clear,
she had just killed over ten monsters, crushing them effortlessly!
When compared, it was obvious
how terrifying Lin Daiyu’s speed and reactions had been!
At this moment,
Wu Chi’s Lord’s Heart panel slightly heated up, and information began to flow into his mind.
…
“Battle Complete!”
“Settlement Starting!”
…
“Battle Settlement”:
- Enemies: 17 level 1 Sinking Demons, 1 level 2 Sinking Demon Sorcerer.
- Battle Result: Complete Victory!
- Evaluation: S Rank!
- Base Rewards: 18 Void Source Stones.

…
“The settlement screen… right, this exists!”
Wu Chi slapped his head, remembering.
After carefully reading through,
he immediately claimed all the rewards, placing them into his inventory.
“The monster invasion for today should be over, so…”
“It’s time to open the treasure chests!”
Wu Chi smiled, eagerly rushing over…
