Chapter 314 - Trouble And Pleasant Surprises (1/2)

Evan immediately used Mammon's Gaze. A menacing aura emanated from this snake. Evan felt that he was weaker, despite all his enhancements. This snake looked like an ancient creature. Its mere sight put a tremendous amount of pressure on Evan.

[Jade Serpent

Race - Beast

Rank - 2, three flames on the platform

Warp - White]

The Jade Serpent was at the same stage as Ein, but this beast was much stronger. Even its size would terrify anyone who encountered it. He was one of the strongest creatures in the Glass Forest.

The Rainbow Bugs came to the aid of their fellows, but the Jade Serpent came because he smelled death and the sounds of battle.

The serpent's amber eyes looked at Evan, and then the serpent shifted its gaze to the hundreds of corpses of bugs beside him. A gleam flashed in the serpent's eyes, and his gaze changed.

Before that, the serpent had thought Evan was a simple, weak mage caught in this forest. He wanted to snack on him and find a suitable opponent. But when he saw what Evan had done to such powerful monsters as the Rainbow Bugs, he changed his mind.

Now he wanted to fight Evan as a serious opponent, not eat him.

<Hmm? This snake is acting kind of weird. It won't attack and seems to be waiting for something>. Evan thought, looking at the beast.

After a couple of seconds, the Jade Serpent started hissing at Evan, but for some reason, he felt like the serpent was hissing at someone else. Evan didn't sense that the serpent felt any aggression toward him.

But, it didn't take long for the answer. Suddenly Reykar got out of Evan's Nirvana and flew aside. He was not afraid of the serpent and did not leave Evan. He sat on a branch of one crystal tree and calmly watched them as if he were a spectator.

<Wait a minute, is this serpent challenging me, hmmm... what am I supposed to do?>

He was looking for a riding, flying beast to get out of the Glass Forest and back to the tower. But, such a huge and strong serpent was also not a bad option, at least for now. Evan, however, was not happy that the serpent had challenged him.

<Fuck, it's not the Glass Forest. It's the Damned Forest. This is the third time I've been in a dangerous battle in less than an hour. If I hadn't come here when I heard the sounds of fighting, though, probably nothing would have happened. But now I'm not so sure that I would have won, but I don't seem to have any other choice.> Evan thought.

He couldn't fight the Jade Serpent. It was impossible and unprofitable for several reasons. If Evan tried to run away, the serpent would catch up with him, and they would still have to fight. But in that case, the Jade Serpent would disobey Evan even if he lost. After all, Evan would show by his actions that he was a coward, and the beast would not obey such a man.
