Chapter 28: Interesting Battle
Logan ran, not chasing the royal entourage but through the meadows, and approached the border entering the forest.
Logan immediately entered the forest, running through the trees, jumping swiftly, avoiding all obstacles that stood in his way.
Logan stomped his feet very hard, slashing every monster he passed. Mushrooms, insects, and flying snakes.
Logan wanted to let go of all the anger that was in his heart. He was determined to kill all the monsters he encountered tonight until nothing was left.
Logan stopped as a pack of wolves surrounded him, a tier 2 wolf monster. Logan stared intently at their eyes that glinted in the moonlight.
All the wolves surrounding Logan immediately jumped in unison, with their mouths open and their claws on their paws glistening.
Logan firmly stomped on the ground, then jumped to the side, slashing with a twisting attack, taking out several wolf monsters in one hit. Logan leaped the other way, stabbing, decapitating, kicking, and the last remaining wolf monster took a thousand jabs to its body.
Logan was covered in dark blue blood, the blood of the wolves he had slain.
Logan stayed where he was, straining his eyes and ears. His killing instinct had somehow gotten stronger as he wanted to get stronger. He sensed the figure of a monster approaching, with a power that was many times the one he had faced before.
Hundreds of pairs of fiery red eyes could be seen in the darkness from every direction.
Logan gripped the dagger in his hand, preparing for his next battle.
The hundreds of eyes approached quickly. After that, what appeared in Logan's eyes was a 1 meter tall monster with four pairs of legs, three pairs of claws on its mouth, and several pairs of eyes.
[Wild Male Steeder Tier 3]
[Wild Female Steeder Tier 3]
Dozens of spider monsters with tier 3 dashed towards Logan. Realizing the monster's tier that was about to attack him was on the same tier as him, Logan felt a surge in his spirit and a feeling of enthusiasm.
"You guys shouldn't be here."
Tier 3 monsters weren't supposed to roam outside dungeons, but Logan didn't care about any reason for their existence.
Logan smiled with his eyes narrowed, looking intently. The tier 3 monster meant that Logan could quickly get status points this time and get better materials for him to get other weapons.
The spiders spouted white liquid from various directions at where Logan was standing. The others threw a green liquid that covered the sky, about to splash Logan's body.
Logan instantly disappeared from their sight. Then he reappeared on the back of one of the monsters, thrusting a dagger that extended and pierced through the massive body.
Logan jumped the other way, pulling his dagger, which was still attached to the monster's body. Performing a circular motion that pulled the monster's body and crashed it into the other spiders on the spot.
Logan pulled back his dagger, which also made the monster's body split open.

[Would you collect its soul?]
[Soul Collect Progress Wild Steeder 4%]
Logan jumped onto a tree, jumping back into the air, spinning through the air and descending to the ground, followed by a mist that enveloped his body, a fog that disturbed the sight of the monsters near him.
Logan threw a slash, the next slash killing the spider monster he was targeting with ease. He immediately jumped back into the air as another monster threw a white liquid.

Logan ran away when he felt the urge, lured them to follow him, then ambushed those who were far from the others.
Under the moonlight, Logan fought like an actual monster. With the class he belonged to, his movement and attack speed increased. He obliterated their existence and finished his opponents with ease.
It took a long time, but finally, Logan managed to kill the last spider that attacked him simultaneously. Logan stood, looking down, gasping for air. His body was covered in blood, as well as scratches. The clothes he was wearing were also torn in several places.
The more victims he killed, the lighter the burden on his heart. However, Logan still felt thirsty. He felt a powerful desire to become stronger and immediately release all the discomfort he was feeling.
'Pssshhh….'
"Shut Up!"
Logan started running deeper into the woods, running fast in a zigzag way out of the trees. And after that, he stopped again when a group of other monsters blocked his path.
A swarm of monsters from all directions, with bodies like humans, but green in color and made of tree branches and twigs.
[Vegepygmy Tier 3]
"Did you guys come here on purpose to satisfy my anger?"
Logan smiled, feeling excited when he again met a bunch of tier 3 monsters. They shouldn't be in this place, no. But who cares? This was Logan's chance to get stronger.
The plant monsters dashed towards Logan. Each of them carried weapons made of wood; wooden spears, wooden swords, and arrows. They have the ability to fight like humans, each with their own unique abilities.
Logan had been fighting for hours, but he didn't feel the least bit tired. His body moved lightly, dodged attacks, and counterattacked immediately. If needed, vanishing from their sight and reappearing on the other side to stab his opponent in the back.
[You have killed Vegepygmy Tier 3]
[Would you collect its soul?]
[Soul Collect Progress Vegepygmy 3%]
Logan returned to his brutal fights, moving effectively, analyzing every move he made with excellent caliber. If needed, he would run away to reduce the number of opponents he faced at once.
A few minutes passed, and Logan managed to kill the last monster he encountered that night.
[Soul Collect Progress Wild Steeder 72%]
[Soul Collect Progress Vegepygmy 81%]
Logan smiled, knowing his efforts this time were not in vain. A little more hunting was all he needed to get back two tier 3 Monster Soul Stones. An object that was extremely high in value hundreds or even thousands of times more expensive than its lower tier.
"Status Window."
[Name: Logan Evans]
[Tier: 3]
[Class: D Grade Stalker Lv. 2]
[Class: SSS Grade Soul Emperor Lv. 3]
[Strength: 29]
[Dexterity: 50]
[Intelligence: 118]
[Constitution: 18]
[Charisma: 39]
[Luck: 19]
[Available Status Points: 21]
In an instant, Logan got as many as 21 status points, which could not be so easily obtained by anyone. If not for Logan's physical state and had so hard trained for it and Ka Hyun-Su's knowledge. Of course, this was also not easily achieved.
Logan allocated all the Status Points he earned to Dexterity, hoping to unlock Stalker's final Skill soon to increase his fighting abilities. After that, he can focus on the SSS Class, which requires a lot of status points in various parts.
Logan smiled when he felt a drastic change in his body. His body felt lighter, and his steps felt faster. At the same time, another monster appeared in front of him.
A monster as tall as Logan, with dark black fur, four legs, and a pair of fangs as long as an adult's hand protruded from its mouth.
[Elite Blink Dog Tier 3]
"I thought only tier 3 monsters suddenly appeared in this place?"
Logan felt horror mixed with enthusiasm. Elite monsters are several times stronger than other monsters of the same tier. They also have unique abilities with more significant killing potential.
"It's going to be an interesting fight."
