The uneasiness really saves him this time. Fortunately, they can beat the Werewolf without injury. If the situation goes wrong, Alex would be forced to recall Leoz. And he also managed to practice his combination with Anna.

"Young Master, Are you alright?" Anna asked him.

"I'm fine. How about you? Any injuries?"

"No, Thanks to Young Master defend me from his kick. I'm fine."

"That's good. We will rest first for a few minutes before going to search the Twin Snake again. But this time, make sure we are fully aware of our surroundings. So we don't make any blunder as we did just now." Alex said.

"Understood" Anna nodded fiercely.

"Don't worry. The previous time was not only your fault. It is also my fault. Don't beat yourself for something like this." Alex comforted her after looking at her expression.

After resting, they are searching Twin Snake again for the rest of the week. In these few days, they didn't meet any powerful monster like last time and they searched for the reason why there is a sudden appearance of 8-Star Master Stage Werewolf but found no clue so they thought it was only a coincidence. So in the next week, they go toward the Hills. They found the Reen Tree first. Reen Tree is a tall Tree and can be found mostly on the higher ground, such as Hill. It has thick, egg shaped leaves, which are usually light green. It also grows small flowers, which can be light grey, light silver, and light purple.

These trees grow in huge numbers, but it's a bit tricky to identify the Reen Tree because they grow along with Ming Tree, which has the exact same characteristics. The only different thing from both of the trees is the color of the inner stem. The color of the Inner Stem of Reen Tree is Bright Green, while the Ming Tree is bluish.

Alex tried to chop those trees down as he activates his Spirit Eyes and sees the energy within it. He found something like this after He used his Spirit Eyes before cutting them down. One of the trees has a mild energy while the other one has a robust energy. After cutting it down and confirming which one is the Reen Tree and which one is the Ming Tree. Alex activates his Spirit Eyes again. He found the one who has mild energy is the Ming Tree, while the one who has a robust energy is the Reen Tree.

Now that he confirmed which one is the Reen Tree, he didn't need to chop the two trees before confirming which one is the Reen Tree. He can immediately know which one is his target. No need to needlessly cutting another tree.

After they finished clearing all the Reen Trees, Alex and Anna move toward another area. And they finally found a group of Savage Bisons. Savage Bisons is a very fierce creature that lives in a group. Alex saw a total of twelve Savage Bisons. Their size is bigger than an elephant from earth. They have not only two big horns, but also two big fans pointing downward, which most likely will tear their prey. They have a big body with rough skin covered in thin brown fur.

Unlike the bison from the earth, which is Herbivore, they are omnivores with a big but thin mouth, sharp fang and teeth, and short tongue, ideal for eating creatures. They will lunge you altogether the moment they noticed your presence. Luckily, they are creatures that didn't have high intelligence. As long as you make an excellent plan to hinder them, you can split them into two horizontally from their nose since it is the weakest spot in their body.

Alex told his idea to Anna for this group of Savage Bisons. He will be the bait as well as the one who will kill them in one swoop. Though Anna protested a bit, Alex's plan indeed an efficient plan they could think of for the time being. After reaching an agreement with Anna, She finally disappeared.

Alex jumped forward toward the group. One of the Savage Bisons noticed his appearance.

"Moo!"

With that, the rest of the group have their eyes locked on him. After releasing his killing intent, the bisons finally charged at him. Alex observed the bisons movement. According to the information he had, the bison have great strength and defensive ability. Still, their speed is slower than their peers. If he is careful from the Attack, he can easily kill one or two of them.

Alex is suddenly running away from them, and of course, the Savage Bisons enraged and madly charged at him. He led them to another area, it is a flatland. Since fighting them in the wood with their big body is a bit reckless in his point of view. After all, with that big body, they can easily tear down the trees, and those fallen trees might hinder his movement. There are twelve of them to boot.

This flatland is only one minute away from their original position. It has a perfect size to hold these twelve Savage Bisons back. The moment he reached the flatland, he stopped. The bisons think that this is the time to kill him before suddenly a female voice heard.

"Dark Curtain"

A high pitch black wall rose from the ground. The black wall seems can swallow them if they touched it, the wall traps the bisons in the middle. The only way out of this pitch black wall is in Alex's direction. But they didn't find Alex in that direction. With their low intelligence, the only thing they can think at the moment is to get away from this pitch black thing. They rushed madly toward the only escape path.

Unbeknownst to them, Alex used the split second confusion on them to get to the back of the wall and stand by there. That means Alex didn't go anywhere and hide behind the wall all this time. When he heard the Bisons rushed toward his direction, Spiritual Energy suddenly spike on his sword. There is also heat transmitted along with the Spiritual Energy. Alex smiled as he predicted how much is their distance.

After all of the bisons reached a specific range which Alex absolutely sure can't dodge his attack. He jumped upward and appeared at escape path at the same level as their nose. He is planning to kill them in one sweep. Alex swings his sword horizontally.

"Sanguin Sword Art. Elemental Fourteenth Slash!"

Alex makes his Fourteenth Slash wider. But because he made it wider, the amount in its power also reduced. To compensate that, he decided to infuse his Fire Element. The Fire Element boost his Sword Wave offensive power.

Because of the sudden appearance, all of the bisons were bewildered. They wanted to change direction to evade this sword wave. But Alex already considered that point, that is the exact reason why he waited until they reached a certain range and suddenly appeared with a powerful sword wave. The Bisons didn't have any chance to react, and finally, Alex's Elemental Fourteenth Slash sweep through the air, and the blood spurted like rain. Alex moves away for a second to avoid the blood.

Anna meets him in the meantime. "Young Master. Your plan is indeed working. Why do you think that they won't rush toward my 'Dark Curtain'?"

"With their low intelligence, I doubt they will escape through your 'Dark Curtain'. But if you didn't make a gap there, I'm sure they will madly rush toward your 'Dark Curtain' and blasted it into pieces. Making a gap like that will make them think that direction is the way to escape from your Pitch Black Dark Curtain." Alex said.

'Dark Curtain' is a technique for confusion. It might look like a wall that can swallow everything. But instead, it is only an illusion optic, the wall itself is very brittle. Usually, it is to confuse the enemy. If the 'Dark Curtain' used wide enough, it might make the enemy lose their sense of direction. Like trapped in a big dark field where you can't hear or see, and before you know it, you have died. Even if you try to walk in one direction, before you know it, you are already deviating from your path and walk in a circle. The darkness itself makes you lose your balance. It is the perfect field for assassination.

Alex took a chance of the gap of confusion from low intelligence monsters to kill them in a single swoop. And he succeeded in it. He took all of their tongue since it is their mission and burned the body to ash.

Alex and Anna used this plan to kill the savage bisons continuously, for the rest of the week. They decided to make each flatland to be their base of operation, if they found a group of Savage Bisons but far from a flatland, they would abandon them. Of course, they are still searching for Reen Tree. After all, continuously searching Savage Bisons is pretty stressful, so sometimes they stopped for a few hours or even a day and searched for Reen Trees.

On the last day of the second week, they decided to rest and count their possession. They have got 191 Ofty Grass, 72 Twin Snake poison sacs, 50 Reen Wood Log, and 524 Savage Bison Tongues. From the look of it, Alex can exchange them for 904 Sect Points. Alex was wondering when he counted his loots. Was gathering Sect Points this easy? Was it because of Anna's Help? Was it because the disciples grouped up to take the quest, so they need to share the point with each other? Alex is searching alone after all (Anna is not counted).

All of it was because Alex got the support of Anna along with his Extraordinary prowess and his Spirit Eyes that proven to be very handy in this kind of situation. After all, if he split the loots with Anna equally, that means he only got 452 Sect Points. It is only enough for a single chance in Battle Tower and some trashy Martial Arts.

Alex chose only to get fifty Reen Wood Log since they took so much place inside his Space Ring. It's better to fill his Space Ring with the Bison Tongues. Still, even they are taking a tremendous amount of space considering the Bison size itself.

Anna is close to level 15 or 5-Star Martial Master because of the massive experience they got from killing many monsters. Of course, it is also included the EXP from Leoz, who is killing somewhere. Now he is thinking about the plan for the third week since he already had an idea for the fourth week.

Alex and Anna decided to take a break in a high cliff where they can see the sunset. Of course, Alex has checked the cliff before they take a break there to check if the Cliff solid or not. He didn't want something like the thing that happened back in the Night Forest to happen again. He remembered that the cliff suddenly collapsed and nearly died because of it.

Alex thought about going to search for Twin Snake or Ofty Grass again for the third week. Although they are a bit hard to find, they only take a small amount of space in his Space Ring. But for the time being, since the sun almost set, Anna took a seat beside him to watch the beautiful sunset on the top of the cliff.

Unfortunately for them, before they can see the beautiful sunset together. They suddenly heard a cracking sound. They immediately turned back but to see nothing behind them. They were wondering if it was only their misconception. It wasn't since both of them can hear the sound. Suddenly, the cracking sound continues and becomes more apparent. It continues to the surface of the ground where they stand at the moment. They immediately fly to the air instinctively.

The crack continues until suddenly the tip of the cliff, the place they are watching the sunset, fell to the bottom of the cliff and blasted the trees along the area.

"What the heck? Is this a curse? Anna, answer me? Does someone curse me? The first thing something like this happened was when I'm in the lower world. It was raining, and I searched for a big tree to shield me from the rain. The next day, the tip of the cliff suddenly fell too like this. If this is not a curse, then what is it?" Alex seems very stressed about this.

"Young Master... Look, there is a cave over there" Anna said with a wry smile while pointing at the cave beside the place where it fell.

Alex was speechless and can't help but mutter, "Oh... Déjà vu"
