Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Pant... Pant...

Leo panted heavily as he distanced himself from the wounded feline.

Silently activating his invisibility skill again, Leo's body instantly becomes transparent before completely vanishing within the thick white-green fog...

"30 seconds left... I need to end this quickly..."

Feeling slightly restless, Leo rushed again behind the feline's body as he opened his mouth widely, planning to use his "Soul Shrieking" skill toward it...

MEOWw!

However, unfortunately, as if the feline already anticipated Leo's attack, it suddenly twisted its head toward its back as it suddenly roared loudly. Almost causing Leo's eardrums to burst.

Boom!

In an instant, a shockwave of sounds quickly traveled toward Leo's location, disrupting his shrieking and invisibility skills in the process.

"Damn, it even has roar skill."

Leo cursed out loud as he covered his left ear with his empty left hand. Although he covered his ears tightly, a trace of flowing blood still could be seen, especially on his unprotected right ear.

-3 health points!

-1 health point!

Seeing that the feline still hadn't planned to retract its roaring skill, Leo decisively and angrily manipulated the floating knuckles in the distance toward the throat of the feline.

"You're too loud!"

Roaa... Choke... Choke...

Caught off guard due to his suppressed senses, the bronze and silver knuckles quickly traveled inside its throat, instantly stopping and forcefully disrupting its skill.

Cough...

The feline coughed uncontrollably as its face was covered with tears and snot. Leo could even see its face slightly turning red, clearly having a hard time to breath.

Chance!

Without approaching the feline, Leo's eyes lit up as he manipulated the rest of his knuckles, quickly hitting the coughing feline in the distance.

Bang!

Bang! Boom!

Meo... Boom...

Not being able to cry in pain, the knuckle hit the body of the feline back and forth. Causing it to be covered with injuries.

20 seconds left...

Seeing that the timer of the shield was ticking down, Leo frowned as he felt that the damage he dealt was still far from enough.

Quickly activating his invisibility skill, Leo dashed toward the side of the feline as he slashed the iron sword on his hand horizontally...

Slash!

Due to the knuckles hitting its body back and forth and the knuckles that were moving inside its throat, the feline had no time nor ability to evade the iron sword that slashed toward its body... Causing its body to have an additional deep wound in it.

...

Not giving the feline time to recover, Leo opened his mouth widely as he released a loud inaudible cry beside the feline.

WaAHHhh!

Boom!

Feeling the tearing pain within its soul, in addition to the countless injuries on its body, the feline's mind completely goes blank as it suddenly falls to the ground with a loud thud...

Still not dead?

Seeing that the feline's chest was still heaving up slowly, Leo dragged his exhausted body as he approached the head of the feline.

Pant... Pant...

Raising his sword high with his two hands, Leo stabbed the head of the feline with all his might.

Splack...

"Huff~ again!" Not satisfied with the stab, Leo again raised the iron sword before again stabbing it toward the head of the feline.

Splack...

Ding!

"Finally, Huff~ finally, you're dead." Leo catches a long deep breath as he touches the body of the feline lightly...

As he was waiting for the body of the feline to enter his inventory, a sudden flash of blue light appeared, followed by the materialization of the blue scroll beside the body of the feline.

This... Blue scroll!

[ Acquired corpse of Early Foundation level beast! ]

Slightly feeling his exhaustion vanish, Leo excitedly approached the blue scroll on the ground. Picking it up before deactivating his two skills, instantly clearing the thick white-green fog in the surrounding area...

Gazing at the surroundings, other than the crimson blood and the deep ravine and crack on the ground, there's not much indication of their previous fight if he stood from a distance.

There's still 10 seconds left before the shield vanishes... I should quickly go toward the building and digest the scrolls I got.

Excitedly dashing toward the familiar building in the distance. Leo gently knocked on the door before slightly opening it only to meet the eyes of Roland, Jake, and Crisanta...

What's wrong? Leo's smile quickly disappeared as he noticed that the expression of people inside was not good.

Sigh...

Shaking his head, Roland stood up from his seat, clearly already recovered from his injury as he stared at Leo with a deep look.

"It's good that you're back... But you should be careful next time..."

"If you faced beasts above your level, you should seek help immediately... Although we know that you're thinking about our well-being, it's still unwise for you to face something/someone above your level."

Patting the shoulder of Leo, Roland turned around and signaled toward Crisanta from the distance.

Nodding slightly, Crisanta slightly smiled at Leo before chanting in a low voice.

"Heal, cleanse, and recovery..."

Swish...

In an instant, as Leo was dumbfounded and had mixed feelings within him, a triple light of green, white, and, brown entered his body, quickly healing the damage he took from the fight with the feline.

I see, so Crisanta is a healer... No wonder I didn't see her attacked in the past.

...

"Thank... You. I will remember your advice." Leo said toward Crisanta and Roland, not knowing what to reply.

Although he wanted to reassure them with his word that he would remember their advice, Leo decided not to since it was best if he just showed them in action instead of his words that he remembered their advice.

Besides that, he really doesn't know what to reply. It's not that he was lazy to think, but it was just that he was mentally exhausted from the earlier fight.

Taking a deep breath as he sat down toward the corner of the room, feeling exhausted not physically but mentally, Leo closed his eyes in an attempt to recover his mental energy.

"I will check the two scrolls later after I recover, I should be able to gain something nice."
