Re-Awakening: I Ascend with a Legendary class

Chapter 40: Wandering Fairy Hunt

{-Briarwood Grove-}—Silver Level 5-7 Area.

-A once beautiful grove now overgrown with dangerous, magical thorny flora and fauna inhabited by Thornwalkers, sentient plant humanoid-like creatures, along with Briarweb Spiders and Gloombriar Shrooms that use the thorny landscape to their advantage. The grove pulses with corrupted energy, creating a hostile environment.

-Key Features: Dense, twisting thorny bushes, dark energy pulses, and overgrown ruins.

-Monsters:

—Thornwalker—Silver level 5 to 7.

— Briarweb Spiders—Silver level 5 to 7.

— Gloombristal Shrooms—Silver level 5 to 7.

The party entered the creepy forest full of thorns. Fortunately, not all thorns were poisonous, but the monsters here were most poisonous.

The party entered with Chimera Viperfiend clearing the way. With this tanky guy, no traps, thorns, or poison could block their path.

Being resistant to poisons and even able to absorb them, Chimera Viperfiend was a bane of monsters in this area.

It wasn’t long before they killed their first batch of monsters, numbering six.

[You have devoured Silver level 6 Thornwalker Spirit.]

[You have gained +0.5 Health.]

’Oh?’ Almond’s eyes twinkled. ’So, it works on Silver level 6 monster spirits. It’s only half a stat point, so I suppose I won’t get more.’

But there was no harm in trying since he didn’t lack Spirits.

[You have devoured Silver level 7 Thornwalker Spirit.]

[You have gained +0.5 Health]

’Alright. I guess that’s how it works.’

’I am sure to gain more stats from level 8 since I know that for sure, but I guess any lower, and I’ll only get half a stat point per type of monster at levels 6 and 7. That’s one stat point, so it’s still worth it.’

"Alright, I’m done. Let’s continue."

The party continued as it went deeper into the forest, but instead of going roundabout like in the Shimmering Fen, they followed the map to take the shortest route to get out so they could reach the Frostbite Cliffs before the evening.

Almond and Lily were swift in their attacks.

Lily shot a Bog Slither Arrow while Natalia used her debuff skill, Sparkling Dust.

The arrow quickly caused vines to produce as it ensnared the Wandering Fairy, ensuring that Sparkling Dust took effect.

Half a second later, Almond arrived with a super fast dash aided by Gravity Repel, the cold blade of his sword targetting Wandering Fairy’s neck.

But this wasn’t a boss monster that died just by getting beheaded. It was a boss monster with some tricks.

Her fallen head produced vine-like threads that rooted on the rocky ground, causing the ground to crack before a golem formed.

’Viperfang Shot.’

Chimera Viperfiend blasted four orbs with snake-head designs with open mouths and gleaming fangs ready to bite from its snake-like arm’s hands.

Alfred unleashed an Icicle Spear Shot at the golem’s lower body, making it freeze on the ground and immobilize it.

Natalia and Lily attacked its original body since it was also capable of using skills, while Almond unleashed a devastating full-powered sword attack on the golem with the fairy’s head.

There was a striking weakness to both after this transformation, which was why Almond aimed to behead her.

For the golem’s body, it was a core right below the head, tucked inside a rock safely.

For the headless original body that made a makeshift head with leaves and vines, it was the heart area.

Lily threw a dagger and stabbed one into her heart while Natalia used Light Pebbles to destroy her wings, preventing her from flying.

Meanwhile, Almond’s sword squarely pierced through the rocky throat and destroyed the core.

[Congratulations. You have defeated the field boss—Wandering Fairy.]

[10,000 gold coins to each party member.]

"Let’s see if it dropped a rare grade," Natalia grinned.

"Nope. I don’t see it," Almond said as he looked at drops on both spots. There were a total of five materials, but no item drop of rare or uncommon grade.

Lily was about to say something, but her pupils suddenly shrank, and she turned around, her daggers in a criss-cross position before her.

Almond also turned as he heard some sound and saw a group of ten people.

"Damn, you killed Wandering Fairy?"
