In the middle of the Rainforest, Ray and Rena walked side by side. They didn't have any ideas on which direction they should go, so Ray used the super-luck pencil to determine which direction they would take.

  *Pencil rolling*

  " Okay, that way."

  " ……"

  " Is this… really effective?"

  Rena looked at Ray with skepticism, even though she has been forced to believe about spirit beasts, using this strange method to look for direction was still too much.

  " Hehe, don't worry, I have used this method in the final exam, and you can see the result. I was able to hold down Skye so he didn't get the first…"

  Ray wasn't able to finish his sentence, as he felt Rena's fist on his head.

  " So it was you!!!! I never thought the culprit that disturbs my concentration during the exam was this near to me…"

  " Ehehe Rena… I could explain…"

  The two quarreled for a bit, and after Rena finally finished venting out her anger on Ray, they walked down on the path the super-lucky pencil has indicated.

  " Ray, what's your plan right now? Don't tell me that you didn't have any plan at all, I won't believe you."

  " Hehe, actually my current plan couldn't really be said as a plan. I just think that we should get stronger as soon as possible, so the fastest way to do that is to battle with other spirit beasts."

  At the moment when Ray finished explaining things to Rena, he felt some movement in the tall grass 10m away from them.

  " Well, it will be easier if you see it with your own eyes."

  Then he proceeds to the tall grass where he has seen a movement before……

  [ DING!!! A hostile spirit beast has been detected.]

  [ Commencing a spirit beast battle.]

  [ A wild pink chicken has appeared.]

  [ Go Schwarz.].

  In front of them, a spirit beast in the shape of a chicken appeared……

  [ Spirit beast name: Pink Chicken.]

  [ lv: 7]

  [ Hp: 70/70].

  Looking at the spirit beast stats, Ray's worries lessen a lot. A spirit beast that hasn't break through lv 10, normally would not be an opponent of Schwarz.

  Ray then instructed Schwarz to engage the spirit beast in combat.

  With Schwarz, speed, the Pink chicken didn't have any chance to retaliate.

  " Coop-Coop"

  The Pink chicken panicked at Schwarz's attack. Seeing her opponent's guard dropped a lot, Schwarz didn't waste the chance. She rushed toward the Pink Chicken and strike right at its head.

  *Scratch*

  *Critical hit.*

  It only took one hit from Schwarz to end the battle, of course, the critical hit also has an effect. Nonetheless, to a spirit beast who could play with luck like Schwarz, always landing a critical hit is a piece of cake for her.

  After the Pink chicken was defeated, the pink chicken's body started to get blurry, and soon turned into a chunk of light which went into Schwarz's body……

  [ DING!!! You have defeated the spirit beast Pink Chicken.]

  [ Schwarz gained exp +10]

  [ Gained the loot, spicy chicken thigh x2.].

  'Hmm, in the last battle with Gugiga, the loot didn't drop because Chongky didn't finish him off. Still, gaining the spicy chicken thigh is pretty good. At least we could have some proper dinner tonight.'

  Ray then shifted his focus to Rena who was still dumbfounded by his side.

  " That last battle summarized it then, you see the chunk of light which went into Schwarz's body? Every time Schwarz defeats a spirit beast, that thing will occur and increased Schwarz's strength."

  It took some time for Rena to respond. Seeing a strange animal battle like this for the first time, it was natural that she was shocked.

  " You mean that we would need to battle and defeat many more spirit beasts to be able to get out from this place?"

  " Yes, it could be summarized like that."

  …


  After defeating the pink chicken, the two continued their stroll in the forest. Sometimes they met another spirit beast which Ray and Schwarz quickly solved.

  3 hours passed, and they still don't have any clues on how to escape from the special dungeon.

  Along the way, Ray and Schwarz have battled more than 20 spirit beasts and increase Schwarz's level by 2. Some of the battles were pretty hard since the opponents' level was pretty close or even higher than Schwarz. And now, the little cat's stamina was at its bottom.

  " It seems we need to find a place to rest. Using the super-lucky pencil would not work, since most of the time, the pencil worked with high-risk high reward."

  During the last few hours of exploring Ray also started to know how the super-lucky pencil mechanism was.

  At first, he felt strange that they encountered so many spirit beasts, but then he realized that the only way for them to escape from here is to increase their strength. So the super-lucky pencil should have guided them into the fastest road to increase their battle power.

  " Schwarz, find a place with the least air of bad luck. We will rest there and wait for your stamina to restore."

  " Meow"

  Schwarz wanted to protest and said that she was still able to manage. But seeing the deep care in Ray's eyes, she shut her mouth and use her power to find a suitable resting place.

  With her power, Schwarz could see that most of the aura here was dominated by bad luck. She had wanted to find one with the least amount of bad luck when she noticed there was a single place with no strand of bad luck.

  " Meow"

  She pointed toward a big tree 300 meters away from Ray's current location. The tree seems big and sturdy enough for the group to stay and rest for a while.

  "It is decided then, let's move toward the big tree."

  …


  Shortly, the three arrived at the big tree, and they look for a dry and sturdy place to lie down.

  "Meow"

  After the group safely reached the big tree, Schwarz went back into Ray's contract space. Even though she said she could still manage, she couldn't hide her tiredness. So when they finally have time to rest, she wanted to maximize it.

  Ray currently sitting at the big tree trunks was pondering on whether to do the item gacha to look for tents. It would be good if he could summon some useful things, but if he was to get something useless like used underwear, he could only cry without tears by himself.

  Suddenly…


  " Ray, hey."

  It was Rena who spoke to Ray.

  " Oh, what is it, Rena?"

  Ray was still in deep thought when Rena came to his side, so his response was a little bit late.

  " Geez, why are you daydreaming right now Ray. But back to the topic, I don't know why but I do feel that this place aura was familiar to me."
