Chapter 34: Eagle eye
"Tsk! Kids these days! Let's go."
Kritos and Sanju both headed towards the outer region of Nameless Forest as the nameless forest is just half an hour distant from the Rewa city. Most people preferred to walk instead of renting a horse to get there.
Nameless Forest has been divided into Three-zone by the locals of the area. The outer region has the least area, especially famous for low-level monsters. Thus, it becomes a hunting ground for low-rank hunters.
Kritos planned to kill as many monsters as possible to increase his SP. After all, he is planning to create a law soul beast.
Later on, System told him to create talent in law. It takes at least 100 SP to install the lowest Rank Law in Kritos body. Moreover, Kritos couldn't increase their talent till he attained Core Realm cultivation.
After walking for fifteen minutes and traveling almost half the distance, Sanju said with a shy expression," Brother, you know, after nine days, it's Clara's birthday. I don't understand what to give her? Can you give me some suggestions?
Kritos glanced at his elder brother, and after some thought, he replied," Elder brother, Why not you give her a pack of flowers. It will look beautiful on her, and use the remaining money to fill my tummy? This way, both of us will be pleased."
As Sanju heard Kritos greedy words, he quickly moved his head and rolled his eyes at Kritos," Tsk! Singles, never know the true meaning of love."
"Humph!, Elder brother, there is no love sincerer than the love of food," Kritos silently mumbled
"What you said?... Nevermind, Remember to come with me to attend her birthday celebration, and I think the city lord will announce the rules of this year's Challenger League and Rewards after discussing with the other clan head at the end." Sanju said
Previously, Kritos didn't intend to attend the Celebration, but now after hearing about the Challenger League, he gives some thought to following Sanju's in the Celebration.
"Ok, Elder brother, I will," Kritos said
"Hey, remember to wear some decent clothes and properly arrange your messy hair. Maybe someone fancies you," Sanju said
Kritos nodded his head in agreement. While Kritos was walking, he saw that his vision and perception became much clearer. He can now see a distant object much clearer. Moreover, ever since he got World Ranger Talent, his affection towards the bow has risen.
To become familiar with his new vision, Kritos kept scanning his surroundings while he was walking.
After half an hour later, finally, both of them landed their feet on the outer region of the forest.
Kritos and Sanju begin to search for the monster's hunt before setting a camp in a safe area. However, even after searching for half an hour, they don't find a single monster.
"Elder brother, I think monsters are again trying to migrate from the outer region due to our fear. It also happened last time when I was there." Kritos exclaimed
"Haha, You're fear! I think they are just waiting for the right time when you will be alone." After a pause, Sanju resumed," Hey, Kritos, I have an idea. Why not you bait yourself? Maybe some stupid monsters show themself."
Kritos rolled his eyes towards Sanju and said," No need."
"Haha," Sanju laughs
As they walked in the deeper parts of the outer region, Kritos smelled an unpleasant scent. Without wasting any time, they followed the smell.
Growl!!
"So, here they are," Kritos exclaimed
Four ranks zero wolves are eating a deer's flesh. Out of four, one of the wolves has a red crystal on his head and looks much bigger than the ordinary wolves.
"Kritos, how are you plan to deal with them? or I just kill them," Sanju asked
For Sanju, these monsters are just cabbage for him, which he can extirpate anytime; even the crystal head wolf is just a bigger cabbage.
Kritos glanced at them and thought that it is the best place to earn some SP.
Kritos shifted his gaze towards the bow, which is hanging on his shoulder. "Nah, if I tried to use my expert level archery skill, then there will be a chance that we will have to go empty-handed.
"Elder brother, it will be best if you create a disturbance and a barrier between these minions and their boss. Just hold back the leader and don't be tempted to kill it. After I finish these minions, I will single-handedly slay their boss as the main dish." Kritos said
"Ok, but be quick, or I will kill it."
Kritos nodded his head and put down his backpack together with the bow and pulled out a knife from the robes of the right hand.
"Hey, buddies, Can you share some food with me," Sanju shouted and revealed himself in front of them.
Aaoooo!!
Crystal headed wolf howl and ordered its minions to kill this uninvited guest and enlist his flesh as a dessert.
Sanju ignores the minions and straight-headed towards their boss.
When the wolf's pack was disturbed by the Sanju sudden invasion, abruptly, like a gusting wind, Kritos swiftly penetrated the stomach of the weakest wolf by the surprising attack.
KACH!!
The other two wolves howl at the sudden death of their partner.
In the outrage, the second wolf leaped towards the Kritos to attack him with its sharp claws.
Effortlessly Kritos jumped backward to avoid the claw.
As Kritos notices the second wolf falling on the ground, he quickly throws the small knife toward the wolf's left eye.
KACH!!
With a sound, the knife directly penetrated the second wolf's left eye. Kritos was astounded by his aim. He knows that it all due to his passive skill < Eagle eye >
Without the talent <World Ranger> and <Eagle eye>, it was difficult even to focus on the gap between him and the wolf.
Aooowooooooo!!
Watching its partner getting awfully injured by the Knife, the third wolf jumped towards the neck of Kritos from the back.
However, Kritos had never lowered his guard.
When the mischievous third wolf intended to attack him from behind, he was prepared to tackle it.
Kritos bent down his legs, and from the pocket of the right shoes, Kritos pulled a knife and forcefully thrust it towards the wolf's neck by pushing his body upward.
Kach!!!
The body of the heavily injured wolf landed on the ground.
Aooowoooooo!!
[Ding...]

Without glancing at the third wolf's corpse, Kritos reaches at the front of the second wolf. He pulled the knife from its injured eyes and stabbed it on its neck.
Kach!!!
[Ding...]
[Host obtain 1 SP by killing rank 0 normal wolf]
"Now, it's your turn, my main dish," Kritos stared at the leader of the wolf pack.
