The Evolution of the Weakest Ghoul

Days passed slowly as the humans settled into their new life of hunting for King Realm beasts and getting enough points to eat.

Like Kali had expected, some groups started robbing. They avoided the strong and targeted the weak individuals, and Yen and Hesa happened to fall into their hands.

"Hey... drop everything you have, then you can enter the camp," a huge male with a small beard across his chin spoke cockily.

Having seen the numbers on these two women’s wrists, he felt excited.

His group, although weak compared to the really strong ones, was in the top 600, with him being in the 500s.

They were strong enough to defeat a couple of 900-ranked humans. Plus, these two women weren’t bad. Maybe if they gave him points, he might make things easier for them next time or get them close to him.

His face heated up as he thought about more and more lewd things.

By the time he came back to reality, he felt a chill down his back as he looked at the glaring eyes of the two women.

"Sorry, we don’t have any," Hesa and Yen spoke.

Truly, they didn’t have any, but to the man, it sounded like they wouldn’t budge, so he smiled.

"Boys... let’s have a chat with these beautiful women," the leader spoke as chuckles rang out and more than a dozen men came out of the forest, their auras ranging from Two-Star Sovereign Realm to Three-Star Sovereign Realm.

Yen frowned. She wasn’t interested in this or wanted to fight. Actually, it was more of a waste of strength since they were already close to the camp.

Killing them was useless since they couldn’t devour their blood, but if these people were out hunting and far away from the camp, then this would be another story.

Yen brought out her left wrist to show them since that was where the points were.

To be honest, no one really knew how this worked. It could be a skill or an ability, but they didn’t need to question it. As long as it worked, then it was fine.

0.00

Seeing the points, the group was stunned. Then Hesa also brought out her wrist.

"Impossible... you..."

He couldn’t speak well. He was far too stunned. It had been three days since they got to this place.

If these people didn’t have any points, it was either they had spent the ones they had, or they hadn’t earned anything and had been hungry and thirsty for three days.

But...

Raising his head, he looked at their lips. They were not dry, nor did they look like those who were starving, so...

They must have spent all their points to get food.

"Hahah... it’s alright. We just need you for a while, then. Follow us," the leader spoke as he reached forward to grab Yen.

Slash!

The whole place was silent as their smiles froze.

They were all geniuses. They felt the attack, the change in air. Only, they were not able to see it. It was just that fast.

The body fell forward as he bled out from his neck, which was cut so deeply that it felt like one could just remove the head with a little force.

"You..."

They were stunned. He was at the Third-Star Sovereign Realm, yet this woman was able to kill him?

Could it be...

"Couldn’t help it... your eyes are rather..." Yen looked at the members who backed away. After all, someone in the top 500 was directly killed.

It means she has been hiding her true strenght, right? Not only her, but the other...

Wait, where is the other one?

Crack!

A bone-breaking sound was heard as one of them flew and crashed into a tree. The others finally reacted as they attacked Yen and Hesa.

Dodging a fist, Yen’s feet lashed out as they hit the one of the attackers chest, causing it to cave in as he flew out.

Then, sinking to the ground, she appeared in their midst, swiping her feet as two more of them fell headfirst.

Before they reached the ground, their faces were caught by two soft palms, and before they could react, they felt themselves lifted off the ground. Then...

Their bodies were twisted at a weird angle as death soon came to claim them.

"No... no..." Some of them wanted to escape, but Yen and Hesa chased after them as they killed them one after the other.

As it turns out, the two women had reached the Second-Star Sovereign Realm, and their vampire traits had grown stronger.

"Too bad... it would have been lovely if they weren’t so close to the camp," Yen spoke with regret.

"Heh... it’s okay. We can get some points. It would be weird if we didn’t buy food or water," Hesa lifted the arm of one of them as she spoke, draining the points.

By the time the two women were done and left the area, their ranks had changed.

At the other side, it had been three days since Ronan had been going in and out of the camp.

"Tsk, it has been three days and no one has attacked me yet... am I not that good of a target?" Ronan dropped the head of a Mawbeast on the ground with a sigh.

Around him were dead corpses as he raised his head to look at his stats.

He was already close to breaking through to the next star, but more than that, his trait had reached Level 10, and now it was time for the quest.

[First Evolution Quest released.]

[Kill the head of all Mawbeasts, a King Realm being, and drink all of its blood.]

[Reward: Gain a unique trait evolution and completion of First Evolution.]

With this, Ronan would have three traits at the First Evolution.

"Now, where could you be?" Ronan asked with a smile as he looked around.

It was getting harder and harder to find Mawbeasts. He needed to switch to other monsters after this.
