Obtaining 10x rewards! Reincarnated into a novel as a side-character!
Chapter Summary
She had never cared about such things before, but for some reason, she did not want this now—especially not with him. Even if he had not helped, she might have subdued them on her own sooner or later, especially if she had used those powerful secret techniques from the clan and her special eyes. The last time she saw him, he was not even strong enough to fight the siblings back, but now he was manhandling a minor-level demon on his own?
Chapter 80: Demon Hunt is Over!
She was more powerful than him.
She really did not want him to think of her as someone weak.
She had once cried in front of him too.
That was the most embarrassing moment in her entire life… she still couldn't get over it.
If Oliver actually thought that she was just a crybaby, she had to show him her powers.
Somewhere in the corner of her mind, she didn't want to lose the respect of her twin...
She had never cared about such things before, but for some reason, she did not want this now—especially not with him.
But at the same time, she felt angry at herself.
Why did she have to explain anything to him?
She was not liable to give anyone any explanation about her powers except her mother!
'Ugh!
' She felt a burst of frustration in her mind, so she couldn't help but glare at him.
How could she know that at that moment, Oliver was just stunned at how ruthless a child could be?
He had first-hand witnessed the ruthlessness of a future powerhouse today.
He felt that she was so strong to handle two demons alone.
Even if he had not helped, she might have subdued them on her own sooner or later, especially if she had used those powerful secret techniques from the clan and her special eyes.
He saw her glaring at him and was suddenly puzzled.
'Wait!
She's not angry with me because I stole her prey, right?
' He felt a bit anxious.
He didn't want to worsen his relationship with this cold doll.
He had seen how, at such times when the protagonist helped them, they would rather fight the protagonist for stealing their prey.
But she had such a complex mind that he often found it hard to do things that sat well with her.
He shook his head and didn't think much but calmly picked up his talisman.
Since they had used up their talismans, they were allowed to exit the forest if they wanted to.
He saw Nadia give him one more angry look before turning around and picking up her own talisman.
She looked towards the sky for a moment, then back at him.
"Hmph.
" She soon left the scene, possibly going back to the starting entrance.
She didn't want to think about it; she was more curious about something else.
Earlier, she had seen the demon suddenly freeze in its spot as Oliver rushed towards it.
From the sounds it made, the demon had definitely been stunned or dazed to even react.
Did he perform some sort of hypnosis on the demon?
Not only that, but his strength...
what had happened to him?
The last time she saw him, he was not even strong enough to fight the siblings back, but now he was manhandling a minor-level demon on his own?
This was not something that could change overnight.
She fell into some thoughts.
Perhaps he had once again gotten his hands on another body-strengthening elixir and used it himself.
This did seem to make sense.
Last time he had come to her courtyard, he was carrying a black box too and intended to give it to her, but she had decisively refused it at that time.
So there was a chance he had used the elixir in the box himself.
She had some guesses but decided not to dwell on it.
She was totally not interested in his business!
________________ Oliver also fell into thought.
What should he do now?
His hunt was pretty much over anyway.
Should he go and rob others?
Oliver was amused when he thought about it but decided against it.
He didn't have that much energy left.
It would be too petty, and he doubted they had anything worthwhile on them in this forest.
He too went towards the starting point.
It was in the east direction, so he only had to follow that path, and sooner or later he would be there.
On his way back, he met other participants too.
The time for the hunt was almost over, and now everyone was returning to the exit.
The demons nearby didn't dare come closer to the crowd of children, sensing the huge quantity of espera radiating from the group.
So overall, it was an easy trip back.
________________ "The demon hunt is now officially over.
Those who are still inside will be brought back, and the rest of you will now showcase the demons you have caught to the elders.
" The same elder from before, with a demonic bird as a familiar, appeared once again.
He kindly instructed the children.
These were all the cream of the crop in the clan and had great potential.
He might even consider taking in one of them as his personal student after discussing it with their families or them.
His eyes couldn't help but wander to a white-haired head in the crowd, the distinct sign of royalty in the group.
He was among the other elders and had seen the stunt of this little guy at that time.
He was ruthless and didn't hesitate to cripple the two siblings either.
After they were brought out of the forest, a team of medics who were on standby immediately examined their conditions.
They both had been crippled badly, and if not provided with a healing elixir, they would remain that way forever.
He had directly crushed their talents and potentials.
He could feel that there was an inside story between the two parties.
It was as if they had known each other from before this demon hunt.
From their actions, it could be related to the small conflict that happened during the gathering before the hunting event or a matter of revenge between the two.
Their eyes were filled with hatred for one another.
It was a small matter, but what he was more interested in was Oliver's abilities.
He had clearly felt it, but Oliver was just an ordinary child with less than average espera quantity in his body.
It was impossible to believe that he could pull off those two unknown powerful techniques.
Those techniques had potential to develop into even more fearsome abilities later on.
How in the world did he manage to obtain those techniques?
And who created those fearsome techniques in the first place?
