Got many things to do so I'll quickly speed through some quests. I walked into the guild and chose 6 slaying quests - 3 B rank, 3 A rank. I look through my map and plan for the best, shortest route to take. After deciding on the path to take, I hurriedly left the guild and called for Blackie. Jumping on Blackie, I headed towards the first destination - the North Mountains.

Scouring the skies, I spot a Roc flying towards a cave...must be its nest. I urged Blackie to charge towards the enemy. Once the Roc was in range, I fired a fireball fueled with the Flames of Wrath at the Roc. The Roc screeched in pain before crashing to the foot of the mountains. It rolled around trying to put out the fire, but to no avail. The fire continued to burn fiercely until the Roc died. Leaving the Roc to burn to ash, I hurried over to the giant beanstalk in the vicinity. While following the length of the beanstalk, we ascended to the clouds. Upon entering the clouds, we arrived at the place where Cloud Giants lived.

Ever since the increasingly number of Cloud Giant deaths by adventurers, the land of the Cloud Giants have become very vigilant. Patrol guards have increased and there is even a small army camped out along the borders of the town. A wall has been erected with gates and archer towers replaced the guard towers. In short, defenses and security have increased by triple. However, that's just good for me - more people means higher chance to kill someone...sure there will be less chance to go for a solo kill, but with my stealth capabilities, it won't be a problem.

I grabbed my Ghost Mask and turned invisible. Floating near the soldiers encampment, I approached a tent. As luck would have it, there was a soldier sitting near a table, back turned towards me, and writing on some notes. Approaching the soldier, I suddenly freeze because the soldier turned around abruptly. Did he see me? Impossible!

"Strange, I thought I felt some killing intent coming towards me?" The soldier muttered, scratching his head, "Must be my imagination."

Whoops, so I was leaking too much killing aura. Calm mind....calm heart...calmness....and SLASH! Death...came to bring away the soul of the soldier...but there was no soul to bring. Why? Well, I fed the soul to Agaricus for his breakfast. After killing the Cloud Giant, I left the camp and descended back to the ground below.

Continuing north, I arrive at the Ash Plains where as usual, Lady Luck comes and helps me out. Five deer like Ash Beasts were grazing the blackish, purplish plants on the ground. I hopped off of Blackie and Dragon Leap in the middle of the group. The shock stunned the five Ash Beasts and I threw Agaricus at them. Agaricus got to work and quickly consumed them all.

Then, we got back on Blackie and flew straight for Lamia Hive. Upon arriving, I dropped Agaricus onto a Lamia. As Agaricus fell, he opened up his mouth and *GULP!*...swallowed the Lamia whole. After killing the Lamia, we flew towards the ocean. Now I can't drop Agaricus in the ocean since he doesn't have very high Water resistance and will be disadvantaged in the waters. So, I took a deep breath and jumped into the water. Using Dragon Roar, I shook the waters causing an explosion underwater. The force of the explosion expelled water upwards like a geyser. When the water cleared, nothing. Receiving the mental transmission from Blackie that there was nothing, I continued swimming underwater and Dragon Roaring a few more times until my breath ran out. I swam upwards and breathed in a breath of fresh air. Going back down, I did this process a few more times, until finally, a Lesser Kraken appears. Blackie, seeing the Lesser Kraken, flew towards it and chewed off a huge chunk of the Lesser Kraken. When I swam upwards, I boarded on top of Blackie and waited as the dead Lesser Kraken floated on the waters, its blood seeping out and painting the waters red.

After a few minutes, a Sea Serpent, lured by the smell of blood, appeared. Taking advantage of the distracted Sea Serpent, I jumped towards the emerged Sea Serpent and beheaded the Sea Serpent with my skinning knife.

Finished, I return back to the guild.
