Chapter 34: The Four Types of Horrors
『Of course, Master. The first type of Superficial is called Bestia’s』
"Bestia’s?"
Adam said with a confused look in his eyes as he clenched his fist, his entire body still shaking from the pain. Blood dripped from his mangled hand, but he forced himself to focus. He needed to understand what he had just fought.
『Yes Bestias!! You see there are four distinct types of Superficial, and these are one of the types, and each type is categorized not by raw strength, but by its nature, how it exists, how these monsters interact with the world, and how they defy, conventional logic itself』
"I see... can you explain them in further detail to me... I really need to know what the heck I am dealing with here."
Naturally, the System responded as she said.
『Understandable master, well according to my archived database... Bestia are by far the most common Superficial you will find here. These are the most physical of the Superficials. Creatures that follow the natural order of predators and prey, though twisted beyond reason. They rely on biological advantages, brute force, and instinct to hunt and survive. Think of them as nightmarish monsters given flesh, but still bound by material limitations. A pack of monstrous wolves, a goliath centipede with armor like a fortress, things that can be fought with traditional means』
Said the System.
To which Adam nodded his head, and replied.
"I see... so they are basically the Monster world equivalent of a cliche isekai, orcs, goblins, kobolds, and so on, yikes."
『Pretty much yeah』
