《Ancient Adventurer Return》Monster Zone
Advertisement
{ Katarea's P.O.V }
After I exited the hotel, I searched for a place that would sell me some good weapon. I alredy didn't wanted one, so atleast it had to be a good one. I didn't know what type of weapon would fit me, but given that I'm a Djinn it would make sense to choose a weapon that required great strengh.
When I entered the store I was quite shocked at how luxurious it was. A hunter passing by had told me that this was one of the best weapon story in the city, but I didn't think it would be like that. Anyway I quickly found my weapon, a cheap but tough looking warhammer made out of mana iron, which was just iron reinforced by mana.
After I bought it, I asked the owner if he knew where I could find a monster zone. He told me that there was a monster zone filled with goblins in an abandoned parking lot. Without wasting anytime, I then headed towards said monster zone and arrived in a few minutes.
It would be my first time in a monster zone so I was quite anxious. Djinns had the tendency to surestimate everything, so I naturally prepared myself like I was gonna fight monsters who were stronger than the Boss I fought in the dungeon. I was just happy that there wasn't anyone in the monster zone, which meant I could focus on the fight and worry about the loots later.
According to what little information I had on monster zones, good loot was really rare and could only be obtained from the anomalies, creatures who were much stronger than the others in the monster zone. So I was on the lookout for any creature who would be stronger than the goblins. Those little green monsters only dropped crafting materials which wasn't useful to my master. I needed to get some high tier items for him, and maybe intermediate tier equipement for me. A good tier 4 armor would be much appreciated, I was pratically naked with my current armor.

Walking inside the monster zones I kept my senses sharp, I wasn't gonna get surprised by those green filths. And sure enough, I saw a group of Gobelins...Or maybe an army actually. There were alteast 50 goblins who were surrounding a goblin who wore a long blue cloak. So a group of goblins led by a goblin mage. The goblins would be easy to kill but the mage was gonna be a headache. As a Djinn I didn't have a protection against magic, even basic spells. I should've asked master to give me a necklace.
*Vrrrr*
Hearing my bracelet vibrate I glanced at it and saw that it was telling me that goblins were nearby. This was really a useful thing. But back to those goblins, the mage was still a problem.
Well I could still take him out. If I could kill him with a surprise attack it would be nice. So walking in the darkness, I slowly approached them. They were dancing for some reasons, and the mage was chanting something.....A spell !
* Boom *
A huge fireball exploded in front of him. I was then sent flying on a few meters before I crashed into a wall. Getting up as I groaned, I snarled while my vision was filled with red. And here it was, the skill that all djinns had.....Berserker's Mind.
For the next ten minutes I had no idea of what I was doing. I couldn't control my body, but I was slaughtering them. The mage kept firing small fireballs at me while I swung my ace randomly cleaving some goblins in half while the others were lucky enough to land a few hits on me with their primitive daggers.
When my vision returned to normal and I got the control of my own body back I was drenched in blood. I had a few hits on my forearms and legs, but I was fine overall. The Mage had only burned my a little bit of my back, but it wasn't anything problematic.

As I looked around for anything interesting that the Goblins could've left behind, I heard a growl coming from the shadows. I turned around and gripped my axe tightly, this was clearly an anomaly. An anomaly could be literally anything, so I stayed focused.
Hearing some noises on my right I quickly dodged as a huge claw grazed me. I jumped to dodge another claw and used my axe mid-air to block a kick from a clawed feet.
Well this feet looked quite human, that wasn't a good sign, especially since I could clearly hear the growl of a beast that sounded like an animal I knew.
A loud roar made me froze, but I recovered and ran towards the only corner of the room where light shone on the ground. I then looked around, trying to spot the beast, but it seemed that it wanted to stay in the shadows. I allowed myself to breath a sigh of relief as I dropped on the ground.
I really had bad luck contrarily to my master, and it showed now. Though I was still a tier 5 Djinn, I wasn't going down so easily. Bracing myself I got up and tightened my grip on my axe.
* Vrrrr*
Hearing my bracelet vibrate I looked down and my heart sank. Bad luck indeed. I should've brought a bigger weapon, or maybe I really should've asked for the necklace.

World Story: Biographies of Extraordinary People
Important note: I’d like to thank Dr. Buller for their advice on dialogue by their critical review. And I’m on a one-month break to post the first revised chapters on Scribble Hub. Please stay tuned! Even in faraway worlds, every folk had a story, and monsters came in numerous shapes and sizes. However, heroes never existed in this otherworld. Even the most idealistic understood this deep within. But as they abandoned their humanity at times, they quickly regained it. It was not that they became human again. They always were. So what happened when the monster devoid of humanity appeared? Well, the “heroes” sought to slay it at all costs either way, lest it would be the end of their stories. A portal/isekai fantasy that I wanted to deconstruct some elements within. Expect a whole ton of references and dialogue because I’ll deliberately write it more like a light novel. The last thing to consider is that Japanese names in my novel will come with kanji/hiragana characters within parentheses. The same goes for any other derived from non-Latin writing systems. It’s because none of the names I write will be accidental or random. They’ll all have meaning. New chapters Monday to Thursday at 11:00 PM (GMT+8), though sometimes I can’t. Credit for the cover art goes to HWPerfidy. She’s a freelance artist on this site, and I’d love anyone who shows her support.
