Chapter 49 - Chapter 49 – A Chance to Make a Fortune!

Rivira Town was now flooded with monsters.

Every adventurer in the town had joined the battle.

Anyone capable of reaching this place wasn't weak.

Even Level 1 adventurers here were experienced veterans.

Fortunately, the monsters attacking weren't particularly strong.

So there hadn't been any casualties yet.

"Monster attack… damn it."

"They came only half a month ago, and now they're back again."

Borus looked at the monsters around him with a dark expression.

After all, this was his territory.

A monster invasion meant losses for him.

Of course he wouldn't be in a good mood.

ROAR!

Suddenly a wolf jumped out from somewhere.

Its sharp fangs aimed straight for Borus's throat.

BANG!

But Borus wasn't weak.

As the boss of Rivira Town, he had to be strong enough to hold that position.

He grabbed the wolf by the neck with one hand—

Then smashed its skull with a brutal punch.

CRACK!

The wolf's head shattered instantly.

THUD.

Borus tossed the corpse aside.

The dead wolf dissolved into black smoke, leaving behind only a magic stone.

But Borus had no time to pick it up.

The monster swarm attacking the town was the real problem.

"Brother, sorry about this."

"Something like this happening today…"

"I'll treat you to another drink later."

"These things can't be predicted," Cao Ye replied.

"Let's deal with these monsters first."

"Right!"

Borus nodded.

Soon a group of heavily armed adventurers rushed over.

More and more adventurers joined the battle.

Rivira Town was a resting place for adventurers in the Dungeon.

Naturally, many of them stayed here.

And Rivira had an unwritten rule:

If something happened, everyone must fight together.

Anyone staying in Rivira was expected to follow this rule.

If someone refused to help and was discovered—

They would be permanently expelled.

Rivira would never welcome them again.

"Monster attack… my luck really is something else."

Cao Ye sighed.

He had only been in Orario for a little over a month.

Yet he had already encountered countless dangerous situations.

And now even in the Dungeon he had to deal with a town monster raid.

ROOOAR!

Several Boar Men appeared on the street.

The moment they spotted humans, they immediately attacked.

Not far away stood three injured adventurers.

"Hey! You three! Get back!"

A beastman shouted urgently.

"Huh?"

"Why are there still Boar Men here?"

"Stop talking and run!"

The man at the front grabbed the other two and pulled them back.

Danger was right in front of them, yet they were still standing there in shock.

What idiots.

However, the injured adventurers were slower than the monsters.

The Boar Men were already closing in.

"Projection—Start!"

SHING!

In Cao Ye's hand, a black sword began to materialize.

BOOM!

Mana Burst activated.

Holding two black swords, Cao Ye shot forward like a streak of dark light.

"Ratio Technique!"

In Cao Ye's vision, the bodies of the Boar Men were divided into segments.

Every part of their bodies was split into measurable sections.

For the first time in this world—

A technique from Jujutsu Kaisen appeared.

"Break!"

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

The next moment—

The thick necks of the Boar Men exploded apart.

If he had used ordinary sword techniques, the sharp blades would simply cut their heads off.

But the Ratio Technique caused something like a critical strike.

It looked as if the Boar Men's necks had burst apart.

Cao Ye suddenly realized something.

A sharp sword like the black blade wasn't actually ideal for the Ratio Technique.

Now he understood why Nanami Kento used a wrapped blunt blade.

Because sharpness didn't matter.

Under the Ratio Technique—

All targets were equal.

"Looks like I need to get a new weapon."

Cao Ye muttered while looking at his sword.

"T-Thank you…"

The adventurer he had saved spoke nervously.

The scene of Cao Ye instantly killing three Boar Men had shocked him.

Boar Men were extremely tough monsters.

Even though they weren't as muscular as Minotaurs, breaking their defense wasn't easy.

Yet Cao Ye had killed three in an instant.

"Go on," Cao Ye said.

"Hurry."

"Right!"

Weak people naturally feared the strong.

Even though he didn't know Cao Ye, the strength Cao Ye displayed clearly surpassed his own.

On the other side, Hendy had witnessed everything.

He had thought Cao Ye was just a pretty boy.

But now he realized how strong he was.

No wonder Freya had taken him away right on the street.

She must have already seen his potential.

Some people were just different.

Hendy had struggled in the Dungeon for over ten years and was still only Level 2.

He didn't even see hope of reaching Level 3.

But Cao Ye?

He had only joined the Freya Familia a short time ago—

Yet he was already this powerful.

"As expected… Borus really is cunning."

Hendy shook his head helplessly and ran off to another battlefield.

Rivira Town was now in complete chaos.

Meanwhile—

Cao Ye opened a portal to his Imaginary Space.

He collected all the magic stones scattered around.

Then he suddenly realized something.

Everywhere around him, battles were happening.

Adventurers and monsters were fighting everywhere.

And countless magic stones were being left behind.

Nobody had time to collect them.

But Cao Ye had Imaginary Space.

This was a golden opportunity.

"Looks like today I'm destined to make a fortune!"

With that declaration, Cao Ye rushed through Rivira Town.

He searched everywhere for monsters.

But killing monsters wasn't his real goal.

His true goal was to sweep up all the magic stones nearby.

Opportunities like this were rare.

"Who is that guy? He's amazing!"

"No idea. Never seen him in Rivira before."

"Borus treated him to drinks earlier. Now I see why."

"He's killing every monster in a single move."

"Do you think he's Level 2 or Level 3?"

"He might even be Level 4…"

The surrounding adventurers whispered in shock.
