Sword God in a World of Magic

The second Trash Bird also fled into the Wild Forest, and Shang charged after it.

This time, Shang was prepared for the Trash Bird's tactics, and the hunt went much smoother.

With his first strike, he had managed to severely injure the Trash Bird's right leg after losing his hearing.

After that, the Trash Bird unleashed its ultimate ability and tried to shout Shang's ears off.

This time, Shang had been more prepared for the Trash Bird, and he had managed to evade three attacks without using his left arm. At the fourth one, he had to use his affinity since the Trash Bird had basically thrown caution to the wind in an effort to kill him.

But after that, the Trash Bird's voice had vanished, and without the interference of the voice, Shang had managed to kill it after around a minute of back and forth.

Shang put the Trash Bird into a beast sack and returned to the defensive line.

After arriving, he talked with a couple of hunters on standby. Many hunters already knew Shang, and they enjoyed talking with the quiet young man.

He seemed like a good listener.

Two hours later, Shang was sure that the teams were using him as their garbage can.

Why?

Because there was yet another Trash Bird.

They essentially let Shang fight the beasts nobody wanted to fight.

Shang didn't like doing it, but it was a living.

350 gold might not be much for a General Stage beast, but it was still a lot of money for someone at the Soldier Stage.

The third hunt went even easier for Shang. By now, he had learned to deal with the dizziness and noise quite well.

Of course, Shang couldn't avoid his hearing being destroyed.

'The first corpse wasn't complete, but I can probably sell the beak for 300 gold or so,' Shang thought as he shoved the third Trash Bird into his beast sack. 'That should give me around 1,000 gold in total for only two and a half hours of hunting. The Day of Chaos sure is profitable.'

Shang waited for another two hours, and the next beast arrived.

Yet another Trash Bird.

But this time, another team chased it into the forest.

The other teams beside Shang felt bad for him. Being stuck with having to only hunt Trash Birds was something they didn't wish on their worst enemy.

Because of that, Shang didn't need to fight any Trash Birds anymore.

As Shang waited for his next opponent, he suddenly felt a peculiar feeling.

Shang looked towards the northwest.
