Henrick didn't come out of the dead mountain bull until all the mountain bulls of both rank 1 and rank 2 stopped rushing and went back to eating grass at the same place.

'Looks like it is over,'

​​

Henrick heaved a sigh of relief before slowly coming out of the mountain bull and looked at the other mountain bulls.

'They are scared but they still remain at the same place to graze at the grass. Sigh...these creatures really don't have 10 percent of intelligence of my Spark,'

Henrick shook his head as he compared the mountains bulls' intelligence with his fire monkey.

"Anyway, it's time to leave from here,"

He slowly took back his rank 3 spear from the mountain bull's neck and silently stored it in his inventory before walking back into the area filled with huge trees.

'Time to leave from here,'

Henrick looked at the mountain bulls in the distance and thought, 'I will let you leave since you helped me kill the slayer sparrow.'

After finishing his words, Henrick walked in another direction from the mountain bulls.

As for why he didn't bother the mountain bull, it would take him a lot of effort to kill them and it's not worth the item he was investing in it.

Since there was no more flock of birds that were tracking him, Henrick could freely walk in the open and search for another herd of beasts.

'System, show me the number of crude souls I gained from the slayer sparrows.

While walking, he asked the system hoping it would give him some data on the number of crude souls he gained from the earlier stampede.

'Ding,

Master gained 34 crude souls. In total, the crude souls reached 44.

'Good,'

Henrick revealed a small smile and found a small group of purple backed wolves.

"Did they see me?"

Henrick hurriedly hid behind a huge tree and looked into the distance.

A slightly bigger than the purple back wolf that he killed in the beginning was sleeping whereas the remaining group members were playing munching on a half-devoured two-headed mountain bull.

"Looks like the sleeping wolf is a rank 2,"

Henrick didn't bother to use the system as he could sense the energy fluctuations from the rank 2 purple back wolf.

Whereas the remaining five wolves must be rank 1.

'Uff….time to fight a head-on battle,'

Henrick thought for some time before taking a deep breath and decided to fight the group of 6 purple back wolves head-on.

'I must confirm there are no other beasts in the surroundings,'

Henrick looked for other beasts in his surroundings; however, he could not find any beast except for the mountain bulls which was very far away from them.

"Ivy, let's fight,"

Soon, he summoned his 'Burning spear' along with the fire vine before rushing towards them.

'Roar'

Seeing the sudden appearance of Henrick, the five rank 1 purple back wolves stopped eating the mountain bull and growled at him before rushing at him.

"That's it. Come to your death,"

Henrick also didn't stop as he threw the rank 3 spear at the fasted purple back wolf and directly killed it on the spot before using his new skill 'Demon claw'

'Slash'

'Die'

He killed another purple back wolf with a simple slash of his hand and played with his third and fourth wolf.

'Ding,

Killed a rank 1 purpleback wolf

No crude soul is gained.

'Ding,

Killed a rank 1 purpleback wolf

A crude soul is gained.

'Huh? Not bad. Looks like every time I kill a beast using my 'Burning spear', I am getting a crude soul. Maybe I should use this to kill more beasts in the future.'

While playing with the purple back wolves, Henrick thought in his head that the rank 3 spear was his lucky weapon and decided to use it more often from now on.

As for the fire vine, it easily bound to one of the purple back wolves and slowly sucked on its energy.

'Roar'

Soon, the rank 2 purple backed wolf opened its eyes and was shocked to see its subordinates were killed.

It angrily roared and rushed at Henrick.

"Your boss woke up. So, let's end the playtime,"

'Slash'

'Slash'

Henrick knew he should not waste any more time because it would be difficult to manage the rank 2 purple back wolf along with the rank 1 wolves. So, he directly used the 'Demon claw' on his both hands and slashed at the two wolves he played with for a while now.

'Ding,

Killed a rank 1 purpleback wolf

No crude soul is gained.

'Ding,

Killed a rank 1 purpleback wolf

No crude soul is gained.

'Sigh...just like I expected, no crude soul is gained,'

Henrick already expected this kind of outcome when he didn't use his burning spear to kill the beasts; however, he didn't have time since the rank 2 purple back wolf was already in front of him.

'Swoosh'

"Oh. Not bad. I am faster than I thought,"

For some reason, he was faster than he was original and he concluded, 'Maybe, it is related to the first trial?'

He related his increment in the speed to the trial because it was the only possible thing he had done regarding the speed.

In that trial, he moved from one place to another for six and half hours which made him relate to it.

'Demon stare'

After dodging the slash attack from the rank 2 purple back wolf, Henrick immediately used his second skill from the 'Ancient fire demon' skill set, the fire demon stare.

'Ow'

'Swoosh'

However, the purple back wolf stared back at him and shook its head before jumping at Henrick.

'What the...'

'Whoosh'

He was shocked that the purple back wolf was not affected by his demon's stare and hurriedly dodge its 'bite' attack.

'Demon claw'

'Slash'

It was Henrick's turn to attack the purple back wolf; however, it was quite fast and easily dodged his attacks.

'This thing is as fast as me. I need to do something,'

The battle between Henrick and the purple back wolf ended up in a stalemate as both of them kept on dodging each other's attacks.

The purple back wolves were not like the fire ghouls. The wolves were innately gifted with speed and since these were used in the trial he felt they were much stronger than the purple back wolves in the outside.

'Ivy, how much will you play with that poor thing? Finish it and help me here,'

Without a choice, Henrick ordered the fire vine to finish the rank 1 purple back wolf and asked him to help him.

"Zap"

All of a sudden, the fire vine used its full power to take all the energy from the rank 1 purple back wolf and killed it within a few moments.

'Ding,

Killed a rank 1 purpleback wolf

No crude soul is gained.

Once again, he gained no crude soul from the kill; however, he was not disappointed as he was completely sure that the rank 2 purple back wolf in front of him was a special one because his demon stare didn't have any effect on it and he concluded it as a mutated rank 2 purple back wolf.
