After that little conversation, the group quickly arrived on the explosion sit. Multiple trees were uprooted, there was a crater on the ground, and an Ent was on the ground.

Erendur rushed over to the Ent, and extended out several tendrils. After a moment, he said "He is alive, but unconscious."

Gurek approached and its head gave out a green glow. It accumulated around his head, and after a second of accumulation he sent it toward the Ent.

The broken branches and burnt back recovered quickly, and in under a minute it came back from its miserable state to conscious.

Erendur asked it immediately "Who attacked you?" The other Ent replied with a voice a little lighter than Erendur "I came here to chase the intruder… He was a dressed in a black robe with a silver mask. He smelled… human."

As he said that, he looked at Dorian. Dorian ignored it and Gurek said "He is a friend. As for the attacker, it was a sorcerer we believe. Do you know anything about he's destination or purpose here?"

The Ent shook its head and replied "When I arrived here he was drawing something on the ground, but after seeing me he threw a spell at me which made the ground explode. But I think he is after us."

Gurek nodded and started sniffing around while a green aura spread to the surroundings. He was probably tracking the sorcerer. However, Erendur wasn't finished with the Ent, and said "You should have waited for the others, you are still too young in the end."

The young Ent lowered its eyes and said nothing. Erendur scoffed and began searching for traces too. Seeing an opportunity, Dorian tried looking around too.

Dorian couldn't really make any sense of what he was seeing, but he looked our for foot prints, broken twigs, flattened grass or stuff like that.

After a moment Gurek said "I have found him. He is heading toward the center of the forest. Erendur, I feel something wrong is going on. We should wait for the others."

Erendur replied "I don't need their help, and by the time they arrive the sorcerer would already have damaged the forest."

Gurek sighed and said "I don't understand, they have always been good with us, why do you hate them that much?" Erendur sneered but didn't respond. Instead, he started walking.

Gurek sighed but followed. Dorian asked "Who are you talking about?" Gurek replied "There are several leaders within this forest, leaders of their community. I lead the bears, while Erendur leads the Ents. I was talking about the other leaders."

Dorian remarked "So Erendur is an asshole toward everyone." Gurek turned his head to stare at Dorian, but said nothing.

With great speed, they went deeper and deeper in the forest, until they reached a temple. Gurek said "As I feared, he has entered the temple. I fear he is planning something big."


Erendur replied "We must stop him." Dorian warned them though "You should be careful, the sorcerer has certainly trapped this entrance. Are there any other?"

Erendur replied "There is one, but it is too far, it is a waste of time." Dorian said "I would rather waste time than lose my life. Tell me where it is."

Erendur didn't do anything, and Gurek had to say "You need to travel up north, you will see a fall. There is a passageway behind the water. Absolutely do not go through it, it is a trap. Dive in the water and you will see another path."

Dorian nodded and looked at the two Sadunites and said "You two probably should wait here to inform the reinforcement of what's happening." They both nodded and jumped from Erendur.

Dorian nodded to Gurek and sprinted up north. When he made sure he was alone, he checked his status. And indeed, he had a new ability.

[Basic Tracking (Level 1/10)]

Dorian was able to travel at top speed without being slowed down by the trees. That was thanks to his Wind Steps, which allowed him to move like the wind and dodge the trees without losing speed.

Dorian did not activate [Angel Wings], so it took him five minutes of running to reach the fall. The sight was majestic and beautiful, a true master piece from nature.

Dorian didn't hesitate to dive into the pond after taking a deep breath. He hurried down, and after a moment he indeed saw a water cave. Though, there was a problem. Of a slithery nature.

Coiled at the entrance of the cave, was a big snake. Its orange eyes were looking at Dorian, bloodlust obvious. It was coiled up so Dorian couldn't see its full length, but from what he could see it was a very big snake, bigger than any snake on earth.

In a sense, those were good news as it was most probably a constrictor, and he would rather deal with an astonishing strength than venom.

Dorian did not approach any further and tried provoking it to leave its post, but it wouldn't move. Were it on land, Dorian would be able to kill it, but in the water his fighting capacity was just too low.

After thinking for a moment, Dorian swam back up and searched for a stone around. After finding a big one, Dorian sharpened it until making a rough edge with his daggers.

Once done, Dorian made four others, and then looked down in the water. Because of the water falling, the surface was opaque, and Dorian couldn't see anything. But he knew where the snake was.

Dorian took one of the rocks in each hand, and gathered Life Essence in his arms. After accumulating to the max, Dorian threw both the sharp rocks at the snake.

The rocks were launched so fast that the water exploded in a geyser, and the two continued their way down the water. Dorian didn't look at the results but instead continued sending all his rocks before diving.

The snake wasn't coiled anymore, its full body was wriggling in the water. Fresh blood could be seen from several spots on its body and one stone was still stuck in its body. But it was still alive.

Dorian thought it would try to seek revenge, but it only retreated a bit, continuing to guard the entrance. Now, Dorian was lost. What should he do?

Reviewing his abilities and skills, he decided to take one that wouldn't cost him much. He could create a blood clone and make it distract the snake while he killed it, but that would be a bad choice. First, it was a blood clone so it might dissolve in water. And even if it doesn't the cooldown is an hour long, and he might need it in the following fight.

This made him think of another unused skill though. The one that came with [Arteon's Revenge]. It allowed him to summon a spirit wolf, and even if the cooldown was half an hour long, it was too weak to help him in a real fight.

Dorian proceeded to use the skill, and a phantom appeared next to him. It was a big white wolf, and felt as strong as Arteon's himself. It was strangely able to ignore the environment and ran like it was n the ground despite being in water.

It rushed toward the snake and attacked it. It was very brave, and very dumb. It was barely Level 1, while the Snake was Level 2.

But Dorian didn't use the wolf to kill the snake, only to distract it. As the snake coiled its body around the wold, Dorian arrived behind it and stabbed it with [Tina and Tima.] He had infused them with Holy Fire Life Essence, so they shone with an orange light.

They stabbed into the snake easily, one of them going for the brain and the other for a random part near the head. It didn't get to resist before getting killed.
