Chapter 49：A human deity... (1/2)

While the meetings of the members of the Elites were ongoing, Yman was struggling against the evolved Evil Rat which now had the name of Noble Rat and reached the pinnacle of D, the D+ Wanderer.

Now it stood on its 2 limbs. It's supposed red eyes had turned into hazy yellow. Its pure dark blue fur that covered its whole body, now had milky-white fur arcing on its stomach down to its middle part. Its two ears grew longer, about 10 inches long that stood like horns on its pointy head. And on its face, gleaming in metallic luster, the whiskers were protruding like long needles. Even its razor-sharp claws had grown longer and sharper.

Khaaaaaaaa!!! It suddenly yelled. The raspy shrill from it sent shivers on him.

The cloak he was wearing had already torn, the clothes were tattered, and marks of blood could be spotted on some of its torn areas.

If not because of his healing magic, not only his clothes would be torn at the moment but also his flesh. For once he was thankful for having such healing magic, a self-healing magic though. Which was not usable to others.

Actually, his body was covered by rashes as of the moment. It was the effect caused by the poison. So, at the moment, he was still in danger. If not because of the resistance coming from his cloak and mask, for certain he was already dead at the moment.

Hah, hah, hah... Yman was breathing heavily.

Currently, he was on his feet and was maintaining his balance not to fall on the ground. At the same time, he also was eyeing the enemy in front. They just finished an exchange of attacks, however, Yman was at a disadvantage. This monster's agility and strength had increased for many folds after it evolved which he already expected.

Yet, he did not choose to escape, how could he just leave this monster roaming down here freely? Although he did not really care if some people wandered inside the channel and found themselves in unfavorable situations, he was not the hero type person who would sacrifice himself just to save someone.

Actually, he did it, he did rescue someone from before. When he and his sister wandered around the town. He was carrying his sister on his back for days after they lost their parents.

But because he was just a 5 years old brat that time, he could not find work to feed both of them.

It was a bright sunny day when they passed at the town's park. He saw a rich-looking beautiful kid girl running towards the dark alleyway while being chased by a Hybrid Mad Dog.

That time, the town where they live was unrest from the attacks of these relentless creatures. They usually prowled the town and attacked their victims with their leagues. They usually appeared from sewers or canals, and also went through it to escape.

Hybrid Mad Dog was at the rank C monster. They mostly attack their victim when they are with their group or if the victim is alone.

Seeing the rich-looking girl running aimlessly towards the dark alleyway, Yman thought that if he managed to save this girl, her parents might be thankful and gave them food by saving their daughter.

That time, his mind was devoid of fear and shrouded because of his stomach that clamored in hunger, he did not even think that they might find themselves in danger by doing so.

TOGETHER with his sister that was tied on his back, he chased after them without a second thought.

He saw the girl cowering in a corner while covering her head with her little hands.

She was crying while shouting: ”Mom! Dad! I'm scared! Help me! Help me! Help me!

Noticing a dirty 1-meter stick that was leaning in the wall, he immediately grabbed it then rushed in difficulty towards the Hybrid Mad Dog.

Even though he was still 5 years old at that time, he was trained with basic swordsmanship by his mysterious teacher.

Before the Hybrid Mad Dog could gnaw its prey in front, it suddenly stopped when it heard a yell from behind it.

Yman flinched a little upon seeing its red eyes, those piercing gaze of the killer, it was almost identical with that eyes of that person who murdered their parents.

Its wide-mouth was dripping with sticky liquids, and heinous-looking razor-sharp fangs protruding like inverted nails.

Definitely, it could tear him without difficulty if ever it bit him.

Regardless, after hearing the grumbling of his and his sister's stomach, he was looking at it like looking at the food instead.

In his mind, if he won and successfully rescued the girl, he could get some food. And if he loses, then they would become a fresh meal for this beast together with the rich-looking kid girl.

Yman continued his charge and made a basic downward strike to the monster's head.

The dirty stick made a whipping sound in the air as it came from above to below. Yet…

It hit empty air.

Yman's eyes trembled after his attack failed to land on its target.

However, the Hybrid Mad Dog leaped overhead and sneak unto the opposite wall, then gone in a second.

He sighed in relief. Looks like the Hybrid Mad Dog really did not attack if there were multiple enemies in its vicinity.

No. The reason why it chose to escape was…
