The Story Never Ends

Within a room, a male was sitting next to a mattress with a large number of books. He finally closed the last book and was in deep thought.

"It took me 3 days to completely understand the language and customs in this world. It looks like my learning and understanding abilities have become better after leveling up. So, this world is known as Divine Star World. The world is divided into 5 continents namely: Southern Mainland, Eastern Mainland, Western Mainland. Northern Mainland and finally the Central Mainland. Each continent is separated by a big ocean known as the Death Star Ocean. But nobody knows where the Central Mainland is. It looks like I need to get out of this forest if I need to know more about this world. So, this forest lies inside the Southern Mainland. This forest is just too big. So, What about the whole world? Damn, this world is too big. But I couldn't find any records about cultivation in this place. It looks like this place is really a poor village."

When Davion was thinking, there was a knock on the door.

"You can come in."

The door was opened and an old man with a long white beard came in. He bowed and asked "Sir, immortal, did you finish reading all these books?"

Davion finally knew why these people kowtowed to him. Since killing the wild rhino in a single hit, they thought that he was a legendary immortal in the stories.

"Yes, I finished reading them but why didn't I find anything about the cultivators?"

The old man hastily replied "Sir, I used to work in the town near the forest as a gatekeeper. As a lowly keeper, how could I know about them? So, I only have these books containing common knowledge. For you to know about them, you need to leave this forest."

"Oh, so it makes sense. Do you have a map of this place?"

The old man replied, "Yes, I will give it to you."

The old man went to his room and brought a map. Then he replied, "It's been 20 years since I last came out of this forest."

The old man opened up the map. There were some red circles on the map. There was also a black one which was bigger and it was crossed. Seeing that Davion was focused on it, the old man explained "The red circles represent the wild animals like the ones that you fought before and the black cross represents the area which you should never set foot in."

"Oh, why is that?" Davion immediately got interested.

"I don't know. No people going to that region have ever come back. I heard someone saying that there lies a large number of demon beasts in those regions. Only some explorers used to come to explore that. We normal people don't know much about them. That's why we only explored a little part of this forest. Many years ago, there used to be mercenaries coming to hunt those beasts to earn a fortune. But nowadays the beasts have become more intelligent and they lie in ambush. Since the death of a large number of mercenaries, nobody comes to this village and nobody comes out. So, if you want to get out of this forest, then you have to cross this site. I also don't know how you came inside this village." the old man asked.

"There are some reasons."

Since Davion didn't say anything, the old man didn't ask any further.

"It looks like it's time to leave."

The next day, Davion bade farewell to the village. He was now carrying a bow and arrows on his back with a big spear in his right hand. Like before, he climbed up on the top of a tree and jumped from branch to branch. After a couple of hours, he finally got to the dangerous region. After coming here, he finally got serious. Slowly moving forward, he finally saw a wolf pack sitting on the ground. There was also a cave near them. But nobody entered the cave.

"It looks like there is a demon beast inside it. Seeing the normal wolves outside, the beast should not be so strong. Hope it gives me more experience."

Davion slowly took out his arrow from the quiver. Davion didn't only learn about language but also learned some archery during his days in the village. The resting wolves didn't know that someone was already targeting them. Suddenly one of the wolves near them heard a noise coming from the side. The wolf woke up and got ready to check when a fast arrow came straight to his head and nailed it straight to a tree. The other wolves didn't know why that wolf didn't come back. So, when they got to check. A couple of arrows came from the top and nailed them to the ground. In this way, Davion wiped all those wolves and finally jumped from the top of the tree.

"So little experience points. It looks like I can only kill demon beasts now."

Davion slowly entered the cave with his spear.
