Strongest Tree 82 Chapter 81

A slight hint of life shone in the woman's eyes. Although she was trying to escape and preserve her life from the tiger but it was only instinctive. Inside, she was broken and a huge mess without any hope. She already knew that if nothing unexpected happen she would die from the tiger's claws but the tiger which made her helpless was easily killed by the man in front of her

Kence turned to look at the woman, bruises and dirt were all over her body. Her lifeless eyes will make one pity her. Just what sort of things this woman experienced for her to be this broken?

If not for Kence's strong willpower he would be like this woman when those people tortured him in almost all possible ways. This was the reason he saved her, because he can see his pitiful self from the woman

The woman didn't say anything and just stood there dumbly as if waiting for things Kence will do to her. Kence sighed and opened his backpack to take something

He threw the set of clothes he prepared for himself to the woman. Corrupted men will surely take advantage of her when they saw the little clothing she was wearing. The clothes. .h.i.t the woman's chest and landed on the ground. She just blinked her eyes, still not registering the things that happened

She was originally ready for another round of s.e.xual abuse, the little piece of fabric on her body would surely be destroyed if normal men saw her. However, the man in front of her not only didn't look at her with unconcealed l.u.s.t but also gave her a new set of clothes. She was not sure how to react

"Wear it" Kence said gently and turned his back to give the woman a privacy. A complex expression appeared from the woman's face but to bring her back to normal required more than that. She was too used to men abusing her and that is something that's hard to recover from

Her face returned to normal, with a blank expression on her face. She removed all of her clothes not even caring that a man was only a few meters away from her and can see easily her. But for the woman, another man seeing her body didn't affect her at all. Just how many men abused her? Even she didn't know the answer to that

The clothes were a bit big for her as it was for men with bigger body than a woman but she didn't care. She didn't care about anything at all

"Are you done?" Kence asked and the woman only answered with a "hm"

Kence turned back and saw the same emotionless face of hers and can only sigh. "Follow me!" He picked the Rank 2 Pearl before continuing his exploration

"What skill do you have?" Even humans who don't train as Supernaturals have at least one ability from Gaia's Love/Skill Ticket. This woman would be the same

"Corrosive Ball" the woman simply answered. Kence nodded his head, among the basic skills that human can have this corrosive ball is good. Just from the name itself one can understand its power

"Your name?"

"Alice"

Kence decided that the woman's att.i.tude is enough and turned his back and looked at Alice with a devilish smile on his eyes. Alice thought that the man in front of her was just feigning being a good person but also has ulterior motive on her and sighed inside. But the man's next words made her body to tremble "do you want revenge?"

His smile and voice that looks as if it came from a devil itself was filled with temptation and allure. He even let out his aura that he was restraining and the aura belonging to mid stage Grand Knight enveloped and suffocated the weak Alice. A Grand Knight's aura alone was more than enough to make a Warrior Rank Supernatural's body to shake in fear

"For revenge the most important thing is power! Power that I can help you gain" Alice gulped hard at those words. Even the people who abused her were not as powerful as the man in front of her. It would even be better if she can have revenge using her own hands. It's not like she didn't want revenge before but revenge almost didn't cross her mind. With her being this weak how can she take revenge? That was just a simple dream!

"I'll help you become stronger but in the future you need to be my sword!" This was another reason why Kence helped Alice. A woman as broken as her if given a chance to gain strength is the most terrifying! Not only will becoming stronger be the only thing that will be left on her mind but she will also become extremely loyal to the one who will help her!

"If you become strong even Grand Knight Supernaturals will bow down before you and I can help you with that!" Even Kence can easily kill a Grand Knights at his level and has a high chance to kill a creature one small realm higher than him! Most of the creatures on earth only use the crudest way to use energy but he was different!

For the current earth's standard his energy control is superb! This was also thanks to his strong soul. Although he focus on the awareness aspect of his soul but the training still improved the overall aspect of his Soul! Even the control part that is the most important in using magic skills were strenghten in the process!

He has the ability to fight directly a Supernatural one small realm above him!

"Are you willing to be my sword for revenge?" His words made Alice to see a bright ray of hope and the previous lifeless att.i.tude of hers vanished immediately. It was replaced by a strong determination to become powerful!

"I am willing!"

------

"Aim for the vital parts or at least let your attack make it lose balance!"

Currently, Alice was battling a peak Warrior Rank monkey. Kence didn't gave her a Bloodline fruit as making one requires a lot of energy. In this tower one needs to be always at the top condition so he will only give her a Bloodline fruit after a week when he will return to his forest

For now, it was better to train her battle skills first. The process of Kence killing the higher ranking Supernaturals while letting Alice fight the ones at her level already happened for the three times today. Although Alice wasn't successful at killing her enemies and always needed Kence's help

Base from Kence's guess the more one venture on the Forest of Wonders the more dangerous it will become. So, for now he's only exploring the outer region of it. Who knows maybe there are also treasure in the outskirts.

"Magic Skill: Corrosive Ball!" A dark ball made from acid formed in front of Alice. Even if she is not a Mystic that doesn't have anything that will boost her power but among normal Supernaturals this ability of hers would rank in the top! Too bad, she wasn't able to train before

The corrosive ball drew an arc in the air that aimed at the brown colored monkey. This monkey has an earth attribute and has great defense. Fortunately for Alice this monkey doesn't have much intellect and it didn't even dodge! Its defensive capabilities was its forte and it didn't thought that a weak human will harm it

Too bad, if it were other attacks that would be the case but this corrosive ball is different! Smokes started coming out from the monkey's body as its body was slowly dissolving because of the acid. It roared from the unbearable pain it was experiencing and immediately lose its battle ability

If it was a fallen who didn't feel any pain this acid attack won't have much of an effect. Unfortunately for the monkey it wasn't a fallen!

"Finish it quickly! Don't give your enemy a chance to turn the tides!" Alice nodded her head and another ball of corrosive acid flew out from her hands and landed on the monkey's head who were writhing in pain

In just a few minutes the monkey's head were fully dissolved and it naturally died. A Rank 1 Energy Pearl is the only thing that was left from the monkey

"Try making a skill that has lower energy requirements, just enough to finish the job!" Kence said. After Alice disabled the monkey's fighting abilities she only needs an attack weaker than the corrosive ball to kill it. But she didn't have any other skills

In this forest where dangers are higher than in the outside world, preserving energy is important. Alice needs to always preserve her energy as she can't exit this tower even after a week. She will just be sent back to her previous location outside the tower where her enemies will be waiting for her

"For now, a simple one will do. Like instead of a ball you can make it a small bullet shape!" Alice nodded her head and started experimenting and making a new skill

Suddenly, Kence turned his head in a certain location where he sensed an enemy. He saw a deer with half a meter crystalline antlers. But it's not its antlers that is the most enchanting part of the deer

On the deer's forehead Kence saw an a pair of wings tattoo. The wings were pure white and looked angelic. Something on Kence was telling him that this deer is a treasure trove!

"[Innate Skill: Nature's Battle Armor!]" The familiar armor set appeared on Kence's arm and legs. There were also two wooden swords that appeared on each of his arms. On the swords' edge a thin but dense layer of energy coated it increasing the sword's firepower

The deer sensed Kence's killing intent. The crystalline antlers on its head glowed with a hot yellow light and shot an energy beam towards Kence

The energy beam was made from a huge amount of condensed sunlight. The power behind it were far purer than any other Supernaturals and naturally its firepower is stronger. Kence crossed his swords in front of him to block the attack. His body was filled with confidence even though his enemy was also in the mid stage of Grand Knight

He thought that it would be extremely easy to kill this deer but he was wrong! The energy beam landed on the swords and immediately destroyed it into pieces of splinters

Kence's eyes widen in shock and can only turn his chest into wood. Even then the impact caused him to flew a few meters away. The loud sound attracted Alice's attention but when she turned to look at what happen he saw his master's body flying on her direction

The speed was so fast that she wasn't able to react. Her body smashed on a tree, breaking some of her bones in the process and fresh blood shot out from her mouth. Kence was in better condition as Alice was the one that slammed on the tree and he has superior physique. But the power from that beam was really too much.

Alice immediately lose consciousness from the impact and some blood leaked out from her head. "d.a.m.n it!" Kence quickly took a life fruit from his backpack and forcefully fed it to her

His vision turned red and the demons inside his heart that he was always suppressing exploded once again! He can't believe that Alice was seriously injured because of his own carelessness and arrogance. He thought that no creature within the same rank as him can hurt him

He suddenly remembered the tower's name. "Tower of Treasures or Death" there is only two outcome when entering this tower. Get a treasure or die inside. If the outer parts of the forest was safe then how can this tower worthy of its name?

He is now sure that this deer is worth a lot because of its abnormal strength. Here, even if you only want to survive that is impossible! If you won't seek treasures the treasure will come knocking at you itself! When that time comes either gain the treasure or die!
