Chapter 85  Other humans

One good thing was that past a certain point, there was actually a faint light source lighting up the surroundings of the cave!

All over the ceiling and walls of the cave there was a strange orange glowing moss, faintly showering the cave in an orange hue.

So far he had spent 4 hours walking in the direction he had deduced the village to be in. He had started to doubt his judgement after spending so long with nothing to show for himself, but the moment he spotted the blue orange moss lighting up the cave, he decided to continue in this direction regardless of if he found the village or not.

But the fact there was light meant that it was more likely to be in this direction.

Assuming the people living down here were normal humans, they\'d prefer to live near a light source over living in total darkness like that kid.

He didn\'t know what was up with that kid living in such a remote place, all alone with no adult in sight, but he didn\'t press too much on the issue.

Everyone had their own uniqueness to them, he wasn\'t going to judge some random kid.

Besides, he had more important things to tend to.

Like finding a way out of this place.

And making his way to the village was his best bet.

\'What\'s that?\'

As he was walking, Alex felt a sudden influx of energy in the atmosphere surrounding him.

\'Finally some more traces of life!\'

Alex sensed the battle a few dozen kilometres ahead of himself and picked up his pace.

The ripples of energy he felt were tiny, suggesting there weren\'t any high ranking organisms fighting, probably some F ranks at max.

But it was a good start.

What appeared in Alex\'s sight when he arrived was the scene of two female and two male humans confronting an F+ rank beast.

These four people seemed to be a part of some squadron, or some sort of organised group as they each wore an identical uniform. The two males, who were at the very front, served as human shields, constantly swinging their swords.

The two females stood at the back, each holding a bow and taking turns shooting at the beast.

\'Humans! And they seem to be awakened too, around F- rank!\' Alex inwardly felt elated at this sight.

What the four F- ranks were confronting was a beast that, like the Shadow wolf, was all black in colour, but this beast looked like a boar. Its physique was significantly smaller, dozens of times even. It had two pairs of huge, crescent moon shaped tusks beneath its snout, each at least a foot long.

Hard black fur grew all over its body, acting like an extra layer of defense against the four human\'s attacks. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Alex looked behind himself at the huge corpse of the wolf, and back at the boar.

\'Yup, they definitely have the same aesthetic, except for their completely different species they look the same.\'

Naturally he had hidden the corpse of the wolf in the darkness when he confronted the child, and collected it again when he made his exit.

Such a huge corpse would naturally attract some unwanted attention, which Alex would much rather avoid.

"Huff Huff…" Puffs of white steam exited from the boar\'s snout. After hacking at the ground, it suddenly charged, it\'s whole body was like an out of control machine as it ran towards the two sword wielding men on the vanguard.

"Ahh!"

The floor shook, causing one of the men to lose his footing. He slipped and was sent flying by the huge boar. His stomach was nearly torn completely open by the boar\'s huge tusks. Blood poured out from his wounds and formed a puddle underneath him.

Seeing this scene, the other man let out a loud shout and retreated, leaving the two women defenseless.

With the other sword warrior no longer impeding it, the boar glared with a fierce glint towards the remaining archers.

The two females were scared, and abandoned their positions, retreating with the other uninjured man.

But as they ran, the two of them tripped on something and fell down — despair taking over their faces.

The remaining man showed a look of reluctance and internal strife as he glanced at the two female archers\' plight, and the escape route in the opposite direction.

Eventually, he couldn\'t take the guilt and turned around, displaying chivalrous bravery and stepping in front of the two women with a firm resolve. He shouted some incomprehensible words before lifting his sword, ready to receive the incoming boar.

Thud!

Thud!

The boar inched closer and closer, and the three awakened could clearly see the blood red eyes staring them down with a manic look.

Of course, they knew the man wouldn\'t be able to defend against the boar\'s attacks.

\'Impressive, but the level difference meant you were destined to lose this fight from the beginning.\'

Alex was watching from the side lines the whole time.

The moment he saw the boar ready to charge towards the three awakened in the final showdown between the two parties, he decided to intervene.

At that moment, Alex suddenly made his appearance, with a simple fireball hovering above his hand and launching towards the stomach of the boar, exploding underneath it.

Boooom!

As if a small earthquake struck, the boar which had just started its charge, suddenly found itself launched high into the air while squealing, half of its lower body missing from the initial impact of the explosion.

But it was only a second before it fell back down again, hitting the ground.

Thud!

Now came the aftershocks of the earthquake, as the body of the boar came to a full stop when it slammed into the ground.

Alex dismissed the notification from the system and turned towards the three awakened, and their unconscious and injured friend.
