34 Crippled Monster (1/2)

A lot of things are happening in the world, but there was one really important thing, the addition of humans. Just like when the first dwarves were placed in the world, they were also given a tutorial.

The humans have been following the tutorial quite nicely. The humans have started building houses for themselves, and some have even claimed a mate.

Some humans became farmers, and some became hunters. These humans were in charge of gathering food.

Overall, the humans are pretty safe and are not in any danger, but the same can't be said for the Ancient Ones.

In a mountain not too far away from the floating city of the Ancient Ones, three monsters were having a meeting.

”Why did you call me here? You know I hate being on land,” a female humanoid reptilian said. She has gills on the side of her neck with fins along her body.

”I've called you here to ask for your help in attacking the Ancient One's floating city,” a male humanoid reptilian said. His body was covered in scales and there were two wings on his back.

”No thanks, unlike you, I have no quarrels with the Ancient Ones.” The female reptilian crossed her arms. ”Now, if that's all, I'd like to take my leave.”

”I also don't have any quarrels with the Ancient Ones,” a male humanoid that resembled a tiger said. ”On the contrary, they have helped me and are staying out of my territory.”

The three monsters were the strongest. They stood at the top. One ruled the beasts of the sea, one ruled the beasts of the land, and one ruled the beasts of the skies. These three monsters were called the Beast Lords.

The male reptilian stomped his foot, shaking the ground and cracking it. ”You call yourselves monsters? Fine, leave, but just know that if you ever ask for my help, you won't get it.”

”We don't need your help.” The tiger humanoid and the female reptilian left, heading back to their territories.

In the city of the Lolleons, a person was practicing in the way of chakra, it was Jiro. Jiro had progressed with his chakra control and could now use it to strengthen his body.

To test his new strength, Jiro went into the nearby dungeon. As he fought the monsters in the dungeon, he noticed that he was stronger than before. The monsters that used to threaten his life were getting massacred.

Jiro left a trail of corpses behind him and he was covered in blood. The people in the dungeon that saw what he did gave him a nickname, 'The Crippled Monster'.

This nickname made him popular as it was rare for anyone to get past the tenth level without mana.

By the end of the day, Jiro managed to reach the 13th level of the dungeon. This was very good as he was only level 100, and the 13th level had level 130 monsters.

It only strengthened it a little bit, but every little bit counts. Jiro meditated and the small cuts that were on his body started healing slowly. He got so caught up in meditating, he lost track of time.

When Jiro opened his eyes, he saw the sunrise which meant that he had meditated for the whole night without any sleep. Despite not getting any sleep, he didn't feel tired and was ready for more action.

Jiro walked to the entrance of the dungeon and noticed that a lot of people were looking at him. This was weird as no one paid him no mind, but now, he was the center of attention.
