Chapter 113:
The Butcher (2)
***
As I mentioned earlier, the deeper parts of the Forest of Chaos are akin to high-level areas in Soul World.
With abundant food, a variety of flora and fauna are distributed there, including many predator species.
Especially when you first enter, Porori warmly welcomes you—by kindly knocking you out with a steel fist, warning you not to come any further.
Moreover, predators from the outer regions frequently make their way inside. When I lived in the forest, intruders constantly invaded my territory.
“ROOOAR!!!”
In that sense, the Usk I just attacked is the same. I aimed for its head, but it didn’t penetrate well due to its tough outer shell.
The Usk, resembling a creature from a famous space war game, has an exterior that’s not easily pierced.
