The fire was burning on the fur; the 3-Toothed Rabbits had stopped. Their fur was burnt off and turned black, but their health wasn't affected much.

Ryder had just finished dealing with 4 of them, and as soon as he turned back, he noticed that the remaining 3-Toothed Rabbits had opened their mouth.

"Oh, Shhh," Ryder could see a black ball of light coming into existence.

They all fired Shadow Balls at Ryder at the same time. All 4 attacks were coming from different angles, making it difficult for him to guess their trajectory and dodge them.

"Flame Blast"

"Flame Blast!"

Ryder had fired two Flame Blasts one after another and took care of 2 shadow balls that were closer to him.

Although he managed to deal with 2 of them, the remaining 2 has gotten much closer to him in the meantime.

Ryder realized that he didn't have time to use Flame Blast on one as the other one would strike him.

He planted his feet firmly on the ground as he swung his Moon Scythe towards the remaining shadow balls.

"Enraged Slash!" He roared loudly as he attacked the shadow balls.

The Moon Scythe managed to slice through one Shadow Ball and destroy it, but as the Shadow Ball burst off, Ryder couldn't escape the effects. He was struck by the energy wave that appeared because of the Shadow Ball being destroyed.

He could feel pain as well as his HP going down, but he didn't stop the Scythe as he twisted his body along with the movement of the scythe and destroyed the remaining Shadow Ball as well.

He was struck by another energy blast since the last Shadow Ball had reached dangerously close to him.

He was thrown off like a broken kite as he crashed on the ground.

*Cough* *cough*

"Well, that wasn't fun," Ryder stood up as he looked at the 3-Tooted Rabbits that were running towards him.

"Now I desire that skill even more," Ryder let out as he ran towards the closest beast.

"Flame Blast!" Ryder attacked just as he was 5 meters away from it.

"Enraged Slash!" Before the Flame Blast could even land on the 3-toothed rabbit, he jumped in the air as he swung his Scythe.

The Flame Blast landed on the head of the 3-Toothed Rabbit, and the next instant, the Moon Scythe managed to slice it's head off. He had killed the strongest 3-Toothed Rabbit.

He killed level 15 beast despite only being level 10, mostly because of the increase in stats after absorption.

"Hah, now that's more like it," Ryder said smilingly.

Without wasting any time, he raised his hand towards another 3-toothed Rabbit.

"Shadow Ball!" Ryder called out, and a pitch-black orb of energy appeared in front of him and advanced towards the target.

'The mana consumption is slightly higher compared to Flame Blast,' Ryder thought as he looked at his available mana on the corner of his vision.

"Enraged Slash!" He followed the same pattern and killed it as well.

Only 2 beasts remained, and Ryder still had enough Mana for 3 Flame Blasts.

The last 2 beasts were at equal distance from him, and Ryder could see both of them opening their mouth at the same time. He realized what they wanted to do.

He ran towards the 3-toothed rabbit on his left and fired a flame blast.

The shadow ball had just left its mouth when the flame blast collided with the shadow ball. A small explosion took place that harmed the 3-Toothed Rabbit's eyes, making it groan in pain.

In the meantime, the second 3-Toothed Rabbit had fired its shadow ball that was coming after Ryder at its maximum speed.

Ryder jumped over the 3-toothed rabbit that had lost its vision and landed behind it, while the shadow ball that was coming after him struck the 3-Toothed Rabbit.

*Raaaaa*

The 3-Toothed Rabbit groaned in pain as it was attacked. It was seriously injured, and Ryder utilized the opportunity as he attacked it with his Scythe.

Ryder attacked normally, he didn't even use the Enraged Slash, yet the 3-Toothed Rabbit died.

"Such a bad bunny, You killed your own friend," Ryder said with a smile as he started running towards the last 3-Toothed Rabbit.

It opened its mouth once more to fire Shadow Ball, but Ryder did the same and used Flame Blast before it could.

Although the flame blast was weaker and dealt less damage than Shadow Ball, It was much faster to cast.

The Flame Blast had reached near the 3-Toothed Rabbit when it fired Shadow Ball. Both the attacks collided with each other and got destroyed amongst themselves.

Ryder used the time he had received as he got to the 3-Toothed Rabbit and gave one last strike and killed it.

Every beast was killed, and Ryder sat down on the ground as he breathed in relief.

His stamina was high, but it was still too much for him to fight so many beasts at once at such a low level.

Most of his mana was also spent, which would take some time to recover. Fortunately, his mana didn't go down to 0, or he would be having a headache as a side effect. He didn't have a mana potion either.

As Ryder was resting, another person was going deeper inside a dark forest.

The person was wearing a beautiful cloak that covered his body entirely.

His face was also covered in a mask; only his deep blue eyes were visible.

He was carrying a heavy sword on his back while he held a poster in his hand.

This poster was exactly like the one that Ryder had found in the kingdom before he was transferred into the Demon Realm.

It had a painting of a beautiful girl. There were a few words written below the painting that talked about the princess being missing and that the person who found her will be heavily rewarded by the king.
