Chapter 340 -340
"Master, we have to run away. This monster is too strong for us to handle. It\'s not his first time fighting someone; he knows how to fight. We can\'t use mana to fight it. You can easily come back once you become more powerful, but if you try to fight him today, I don\'t think any good results will come out. Death can be one of the results," Link explained.
\'This is the first monster that I couldn\'t defeat since I got reincarnated into this world. I knew that this was bound to happen at some point but so soon? Link is right; that tree has so many glowing leaves, and if only one leaf can do this... I highly doubt I can give it a scratch,\' Anon thought as he looked at the tree.
"Master... The dome will break shortly, do you have any plan?" Link asked.
"I do have a plan. Link, just hold the dome for some more time," Anon said as he used his skill.
"Yes, master," Link replied.
<Skill Combiner>
[How many skills do you want to combine?] A screen popped up in front of Anon.
\'Two,\' Anon thought inside his mind.
[Choose Skill 1]
\'Echo,\' Anon replied.
[Choose Skill 2] The system asked again.
\'Light,\' Anon replied.
[Combining skills...]
[Combination Successfully completed]
[Distractive Flash] [B+]
[This skill is used to distract a monster. When used, this skill creates a flash and noises at a selected destination in a 200-meter radius.]
"Good... Let\'s see if this can work on that thing," Anon said as he looked around and found the perfect place to distract the tree\'s attention.
"Link, when I order... You will remove this dome, do you understand?" Anon asked.
"Master, I don\'t think it can last that long. You have to order fast," Link spoke as he constantly repaired the dome.
<Distractive Flash>
Anon used the skill and projected a distraction at the exact opposite side of the tree that he was standing on.
Pop-pop-pop
Suddenly, popping sounds started coming out of the bushes with light flashes.
The tree immediately stopped attacking Anon and retracted his roots to attack the distraction that Anon had created.
"Remove it," Anon ordered.
"Yes," Link replied as he removed the dome.
Anon immediately started running towards the tree with his full speed.
He continuously changed the position of the distraction to keep the tree busy, so he could save Ven and Fen.
Anon summoned his sickle and cut through the roots that were holding Fen and Ven tightly.
As the tree was busy chasing the distraction like a dog, it paid no attention to Anon\'s actions.
As both of them were unconscious, Anon securely picked both the sisters on his shoulders and started walking away silently.
"H-Help-" suddenly a sound came from the tree.
"Hmm...?" Anon looked back and noticed another person trapped on the tree.
"Sorry, mate, I would\'ve saved you, but I only save my own toys. I will save you some other day, if you survive. Until then, have a good day," Anon replied as he started walking away.
Suddenly the tree realized that something was wrong, and it stopped chasing the distraction.
\'Ah, darn it...\' Anon thought as he saw the tree retrieving his roots once again.
"Link... Do something," Anon shouted.
The tree\'s roots immediately started crawling towards Anon with full speed.
"Master, I will hold them. You run away," Link said as he used some spell, but it didn\'t work because the tree has realized that two of his preys have escaped from his grip.
The roots continued to chase Anon as he ran with his full power.
\'If it hadn\'t been for these two... I would\'ve used Phoenix Ignition already.\'
As the roots were about to reach Anon, Gin jumped in front of them and sacrificed himself.
Woooooooooof
The roots grabbed Gin and trapped him inside the main body of the tree, but this bought time for Anon to run away safely.
"I will never forget your sacrifice, man," Anon said as he continued to run.
\'I can make another Gin, but I can\'t make these two girls... Oh wait, I can make them too with the cloning spell, but the feelings part will be impossible to get. Gin, my boy, I will try to take as much fun as possible from these two. Don\'t you worry,\' Anon thought as he continued to run away.
Link transformed back to his tattoo form, and Anon finally escaped Prampel tree\'s territory.
"Fuck.. FUCKKKKKK...." Anon shouted loudly, so loud that his voice echoed all over the forest.
Putting down both of the sisters, Anon sat down beside them and started thinking about what just happened.
\'I need Physical Training. I need to train my body without using any mana. The first thing I am going to do after escaping this forest is going to strengthen my body. I can pick up over 25 Quintals of weight using mana, but how much can I pick without using mana?\' Anon thought as he noticed a rock in front of him.
He stood up and tried to lift the stone without using any mana.
"Hiyaaaaaaa...." Anon shouted as he couldn\'t pick up the stone without using any mana.
\'Just a weak piece of junk... Now I understand what the demon gods meant when they told me to strengthen myself for the candidate that the gods have sent. They didn\'t want me to strengthen myself by leveling up or learning new spells; they wanted me to strengthen myself physically,\' Anon thought as he sat back down.
Suddenly he felt the communication crystal ball vibrating again.
"What does this guy want?" Anon spoke as he took out the crystal ball and injected his mana into it.
"Jule, can you hear me?" Ian spoke up from the other side.
"Yes, motherfucker- i mean mother and father, i can hear you." Anon replied.
"What ? But your mother isn\'t here ?"
"Why ? Where is she ?" Anon asked.
"That\'s not important, i want to talk to you about something else." Ian said.
