nSeveral Dwarves, who had just arrived in Elysium, were running away from the center of the Aspiration Plains.

nThey accidentally ventured too far while hunting horned rabbits and didn’t notice that they had entered the territory of the Berserked Horned Rabbits, which were Rank 2 Monsters.

nOne of the Dwarves accidentally tripped over the ground while running away, making the Berserked Horned Rabbits lock onto his small body.

n“No! Save me!” The Dwarf boy cried out in fear, but no one paid attention to him.

nIt was not that the other Dwarves didn’t want to help him, but that there was nothing they could do. They were just beginners and they were already hard pressed fighting against Rank 1 Monsters, let alone Rank 2 Monsters, who were known for their speed and mobility.

nThe Dwarf boy watched in horror as one of the Berserked Horned Rabbits lunged at him with its sharp horn posed to impale his body.

nHe could only close his eyes and brace himself for the inevitable pain and death that would befall upon him shortly. However, it was at this moment when a metallic ring reached his ears.

nWhen the Dwarf boy opened his eyes, he saw an adorable blonde Dwarf girl, colliding with the Horned Rabbit using her shield.

nTime seemed to have stopped at that moment, as the boy looked at his savior with a flushed expression on his face.

n“Smite!” Colette shouted as she smashed her mythical mace against the Berserked Horned Rabbit’s body, making it take a few steps back.

nBefore the Dwarf boy could even thank his savior, Colette raised her mace and cried out to her teammates.

n“Arrowhead Formation!” Colette ordered before charging at the enemies with Matty and Lux by her side.

nThere were Four Berserked Horned Rabbits, but the Goldenslayer Party was now more than capable of dealing with them after everything that they had been through.

n“Diablo, take care of the fourth one,” Lux ordered as he summoned his dependable Firstborn to battle.

nDiablo appeared riding Airon, and the two Immediately entangled with the Berserked Horned Rabbit that was planning to attack the mages at the back of the formation.

nColette used her all-rounder abilities to fight the horned rabbit in front of her. Berserked Horned Rabbits were known for their bursts of speed, instead of their strength.

nAs long as they were stopped from gaining momentum when they started to sprint, their horned attacks were not much of a threat to the little Paladin whose mythical weapon, shield, and armor, could easily defend against its normal attacks.

nMatty, on the other hand, was an expert in parrying. Now that he was wearing mythical armor, and wielding two mythical short swords, his counterattacks were deadlier than ever.

nAs for Lux… he was just like Colette, an all rounder. But, having a baby slime who was a battle junkie, who had no qualms firing a barrage of spells at her target in addition to copying her Papa’s Doppelganger skill, was like a magical turret that spits random spells in a span of a few seconds, turning the Berserked Horned Rabbit in front of them into a punching bag.

nBecause of this, Andy, Axel, and Helen, focused on supporting Colette and Matty. Lux, Eiko, and Diablo obviously didn’t need any support.

nThey even pitied the Berserked Horned Rabbits that were unlucky enough to be targeted by them.

n“Eyah!” Eiko ordered Blackie and Whitey, making the Devil and Angel Slime use their combination attack called, Starfire Tempest, which allowed the two slimes to combine the power of Shadow and Holy into a single, concentrated beam of light.

nA loud explosion ensued followed by a shriek of pain. A few seconds later the Berserked Horned Rabbit collapsed on the ground, with a charred, basketball-sized hole in its chest.

n“Great job, Eiko.”

n“Pa!”

nLux then glanced at the others and found them almost finished with their respective targets as well. For the time being, the Half-Elf moved towards the Dwarf boy, whose eyes never left Colette.

nThe red-headed teenager didn’t fail to notice the look of admiration in the boy’s eyes which made him pray for his poor soul. Tʜe sourc of ths content s oᴠel ꜰre.nt

n‘Hah, Colette is such a sinful child,’ Lux mused as he stared at the love-struck Dwarf boy who seemed to have fallen in love at first sight. ‘It seems that Matty will have a lot of love rivals in the future. Colette is simply too good.’

nLux was looking forward to Matty’s future hardships in trying to secure Colette’s hand in marriage after their party moved to the Intermediate Town where Apostle Grade Solaians numbered in the thousands.

nAfter all the Berserked Horned Rabbits had been dealt with, the party focused on collecting their Beast Cores, as well as storing the corpses inside their Enchanted Beast Rings.

nHorned Rabbit Meat was a delicacy in Leaf Village, especially Rank 2 Horned Rabbits, fetching a good price in the market.

nLux didn’t even need to bother taking the Beast Core of the Berserked Horned Rabbit that he had slain because his baby Slime would be the one who would deal with it. After the battle, Eiko jumped off his head and ordered Blackie and Whitey to retrieve the Beast Core from the Horned Rabbit’s body, so that she could eat it.

nJust as he expected, a series of notifications appeared in front of him after Eiko finished absorbing the Beast Core.

nHalf a minute later, Lux chuckled as he watched his baby Slime run all over the place using her Sprint Skill, followed by Blackie and Whitey as if they were playing tag.

n—–

n“Are you alright?” Colette asked the Dwarf boy who had fallen on the ground with a smile on her face, making the poor Dwarf have a nosebleed.

n“Y-Yes, I am fine,” the Dwarf Boy replied as he tried to reach out for Colette’s outstretched hand.

nHowever, before he could even touch the rugged hands of his savior, a much rougher hand grabbed him and pulled him off the ground.

n“Hi, my name is Matty,” Matty said. “I am Colette’s future fiance. Nice to meet you,” Matty added in an intimidating tone, which made the Dwarf look at Colette with a heartbroken gaze.

nSurprisingly, Colette didn’t correct Matty’s words because she didn’t want to entangle herself with a stranger that she had just saved. It would be better to turn a blind eye to Matty’s declaration than deal with a Dwarf who was looking at her with puppy eyes.

nThis was not the first time that this had happened, so she was already used to it.

nAs the Dwarf boy looked at Colette every ten steps he took away from her, Matty got annoyed so he used his body to block the Dwarf boy’s vision, making the latter pout.

nLux just watched this funny scene with his arms crossed over his chest. He could already tell that in a few more years, Colette would grow up to become a very beautiful young lady, which would gather many suitors.

nAs for whether Matty would be able to win her heart or not, even Lux didn’t know. All he wanted for his friends was to find happiness in life.

n“Well then, let’s go hunt a Carbuncle!” Colette declared as she summoned her Warg Mount.

nAfter their night of celebration, the Dwarf children decided to stay for three more days before leaving for Intermediate Town.

nLux’s promise had eased Colette’s and the others’ hearts, which made them look forward to seeing him again when he traveled to the Intermediate Towns, where they could once again continue their journey together.
