Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

By the time Chiron was done at the Pub with Ponzi's father, it was almost morning.

He had not gotten any sleep throughout the night, but his mind was too excited about what was going to happen next for it to bother him.

This time around, he was the first person to get to the Bureau for cultivators before the others.

This mission was mainly to help Carla get the Snow white Tulip flower in order to heal her sick mother's disease. It was only natural that she arrived early.

Next came Ponzi and then Duna and Luna. Zi was the last to arrive.

The moment Carla saw him, She ran and hugged him in her excitement. All through the night, she had been thinking about his well-being.

Even the celebration that happened at her place for their achievement did not feel complete without him.

"Chiron! are you okay!?" she asked affectionately as she tried to have a better look at the left side of his face.

Chiron used a bandage on his left eye, and the side of his face still had the scar from the attack.

It was until her eyes met with his that she realized that she had overstepped.

She blushed as she backed out gently. Meanwhile, her mind was running wild with the fact that she had just had bodily contact with him.

Immediately, Carla went to the elderly lady at the counter to sign up for the mission.

She paid the required fee, and it was given to her.

The party members checked their bag packs one more time before leaving.

The mission this time around was not going to be an easy one.

In fact, it could even take days.

After all, they had to go through the safe route to reach the top parts of mount Chikit.

According to what Chiron could remember from his old world, mount Everest was the highest mountain, and it had taken the fastest climber at least eight hours to reach the top.

Things were far different here.

For one, Mount Everest would not even be considered a high mountain in this world.

And Mount Chikit alone was at least twice its size. Although what they were looking for was not at the zenith of the mountain, the path to getting there was where the problem lay.

The strongest amongst them was just of the high wood rank.

In fact, for most of the journey, they had to hide from terrifying cored beasts and only fought when absolutely necessary. And that too was only done while running away.

This was one of the reasons why Chiron had not come for the mountain alone.

As it stood, they were barely half way on their journey, but it was already dark, and they had fought almost ten yellow-cored beasts. Hidden from two green-cored beasts, and watched as they mistakenly stumbled into a blue-cored beast territory.

Fortunately, it was feasting on a yellow cored beast and did not have their time.

Another reason he had not come here alone was that up here was literally Fate's domain.

Just like he had fought those Assassins and had the upper hand because he was in a graveyard, this was Fate's grave yard.

Chiron suspected that if he had come alone, he would have been getting the alert to defend against Fate like raindrops falling from the sky.

However, Fate would have to be careful how it attacked him in this place.

After all, an attack from one beast was not just an attack on him, but also on the rest of his party members.

In other words, Fate could arrange the meeting but could not determine the terms.

At the end of the day, human beings and even creatures that were led by their instincts made their own decisions.

With the kind of impact someone like Carla was destined to make in the future, Chiron was sure that Fate would not take the risk.

He also calculated from time to time when he would have to leave the party.

His goal was still to get the Dragon egg.

If his memory served right, and it did, he was almost close to that cave.

In the novel, the MC got only got cultivation after the destruction that befell the clan, which happened at the second gathering of the sword clans.

At that time, the MC was in his early twenties and had run into the mountains with his sister for safety. It was that cave that led to the Dragon egg.

Night fell, and the party found corners to sleep.

Sometime in the night, Chiron opened his eyes. He noticed Zi coming to sleep close to him with her blanket. He pretended not to notice and continued sleeping.

The next time he opened his eyes, he found that Carla had also come to join him on the other side.

It was morning, and Zi was the first person to wake up.

However, she noticed the person by her side was not Chiron but Carla.

She stood up as her eyes subconsciously searched for him up and about.

Because of security reasons, the party had chosen to sleep under the thick protruding roots of trees.

Only a few steps and they he was. He had not gone too far from the party.

He was without a shirt and was engaging in serious handstand pushups.

It was morning and this high up on the mountain, it was easy to see as the sweat formed steam as it oozed out of him.

She did not know how long he had been working out, but from the moment she came, she counted six hundred and fourteen handstand pushups.

She did not know that she had arrived quite late, and to the end of his workout. In fact, this was his post-workout session.

From the moment Carla came to sleep beside him, he was already up and working out.

After which he engaged in situps.

This time around, the mark was exactly one thousand.

After that, he engaged in squats.

She was really surprised to see this. She had known that with the things Chiron had achieved, he was incredible. Especially since he was not a cultivator, but seeing how hard he brutalized his own body in his workouts, her eyes could not help but stick to him.

Chiron was done. At least for now. He was high up in the mountain and needed his strength for emergencies. He could not go to the extremes he usually did which resulted in his passing out on the ground.

Zi watched and contemplated what to do.

She finally made up her mind to go back and get him a towel or something.

However, the moment she turned, the only thing she saw was a full set of eight blue eyes staring intently at her.

Subconsciously, she took two steps back, but the overwhelming fear made her fall on her ass.

Chiron was done with his work out and was enjoying some water to cool off.

To enjoy the maximum benefit of working out, he had not used his aura to support his body.

He had not gone too far from the main party and was sure Fate would not make attacks on him here.

However, he had underestimated his opponent.

He suddenly heard a loud shrieking scream.

Immediately, he ran in the direction of the scream. And there it was. A giant Blue Cored Beast.

This one was a Spider.
