《Primordial Dimensions》Slaughterer's Path
Advertisement
Standing in the center of the ten sparky-horned goats, there was still enough space for him to move, but rather than standing still, Shane used his speed to inflict another deep wound onto the already seriously injured goat.
It wouldn't survive these injuries and Shane charged out of the encirclement without looking back, as he sensed a small flux piercing his leg.
The goat that was on its deathbed used its last remaining force to release electric currents, hitting his leg, causing it to twitch violently.
Circulating his mana at the spot where he was hit, he could barely get a hold of himself.
Shane was astonished that the sparky-horned goat attacked him, causing its own death as he noticed that another two small streams of electric currents flew towards him, forcing him to evade them with a jump to the side.
There were two advantages Shane could use in this fight against the sparky-horned goats.
First, the electric currents couldn't cover a large distance and with a straight line, their radius was only half a meter.
And the second advantage he had was also the best possible he could wish for. While sparky-horned goats could use the electric affinity within their horns, their body was weak against them and they feared attacking each other with electric currents the most.
These electric currents were only used by male goats during the mating season to fight each other in order to gain the female goat's favor and it wasn't rare for the defeated goat to die or be heavily injured during these times.
Shane was focusing on one goat at a time and tried to remain close to them, forcing the other goats to discard their plan to attack him with a number of electric currents.
Moving around smoothly, the shiolite dagger kept being thrusted and stabbed into the sparky-horned goats without them knowing, and only after three of them died, they finally began to disregard the safety of a single brethren to charge at him with all their might, while releasing their electric currents.

For Shane, it looked ridiculous because he faced all the sparky-horned goats at the same time, seemingly as if they shared a single brain cell.
Six electric currents were released and shot at the same time towards Shane, who exerted his force to jump back across the sparky-horned goat he was about to attack a moment ago.
The goat looked angry at Shane before it noticed that its six companions didn't halted their charge, seemingly trying to run it over as it desperately released a powerful electric current in a radius of 40 centimeters around it.
Shane only saw that the six charging goats killed the innocent sparky-horned goat by running it over, not without sustaining injuries.
They were electrified by the strong electric current their dead brethren had used to protect itself, giving Shane the opportunity to appear within their center once again.
Drawing out his dagger once again, Shane whirled around, looking as if he danced, while inflicting a massive number of wounds on all sparky-horned goats, without them being able to defend properly, as they were closer to each other than previously thought.
If Shane had a second dagger his dance-like sequence would be even more lethal but unfortunately, he had yet to find a suitable one when he searched through the DeepMountain market.
Otherwise, his dance would look even more impressive due to another aesthetic feature.
Learning how to dance from a young age in order to attend all kinds of events and balls, Shane was extremely bored, which caused him to try out many things and one was changing a dance into some sort of martial art technique.
He couldn't possibly do this alone and one female battle maniac, he had as an instructor was interested in Shane's tries.
By working together, they created a small dance-like performance that could be used to massacre hoards of beasts under the important remark that it consumed a lot of stamina.

A minute passed and Shane finished his performance with a deep breath and he could only feel that two electric currents hit him at his abdomen and right elbow.
It hurt but it was nothing threatening, circulating his mana for some time would be enough to expel the numbness.
But that didn't really matter as his opponents were all defeated and only lifeless corpses remained.
Picking up the corpses and storing them away in his store, he selected the price of 8 silver coins before he noticed that the five fanged coyote corpses were sold for 50 bronze, which Shane found quite amusing.
Even though his store was small, Shane estimated that most merchants or butchers bought a certain extension to their system.
The function to purchase all kinds of goods for a set price and below.
Selecting a fixed item, beast, and so on for a fixed price, everything at the price and below would instantly be purchased, as long as enough funds were deposited.
This function, however, was relatively expensive to purchase and only wealthy butchers, merchants, craftsmen, and so on would purchase it, because hiring an assistant was cheaper for normal merchants, as long as one looked at the small picture, without considering the large market.
Maybe Shane would also purchase this function sometime in the future, but there was still a long way to go and he didn't even know if he had to rely on the store in the future, as trading outside the shop was definitely cheaper and more profitable for both sides.
Shane's wealth has increased to 69 silver and 50 bronze and with the sparky-horned goats, he would have 1 gold coin and almost 50 silver.
It was still early in the morning and Shane's body had to adjust itself to gathering and purifying mana for such a long time and it was said that battling was the best way to do that.
Umbra began to slowly establish his own fighting spirit and being within Shane's pocket frustrated him extremely.
Having the desire to grow stronger, it curled up and ignored the heavy movements, focusing solely on increasing its strength by absorbing mana.
Shane noticed that and smiled lightly because it was definitely a good sign to see Umbra being so determined but it would probably cause problems, once it was either unable to evolve to due a low quality or reaching the racial limits even after extending them with his superior quality.
He knew that saving money was the most important thing, right after investing in his own human capital.
Umbra could be said to be worth investing into, as an uncommon quality to start with was already not bad and with a decent evolution path, maybe something great could come out.
Even though Shane was loved by nature in his last life, he read many fairy tales and the stories about western and oriental dragons were the ones he loved the most.
Remembering stories about snakes evolving into horned snakes after one century.
Additional 5 centuries of cultivation are required for horned snakes to evolve into flood dragons and the final tribulation to become a true dragon will take place one millennium later.
These stories were apparent in his mind and dreaming about Umbra evolving into an oriental dragon would be powerful.
At least, if it was possible...otherwise, Shane would try to form Umbra into a terrifying existence on the ground, as long as his cute little companion was willing to.
Shane's thoughts were filled with all kinds of immature things that he hadn't thought about for a long time as he looked out for his next target.
