The Primal Hunter

Chapter 1012

Chapter 1012: Three Theories Jake couldn’t help but stumble back as the projection was broken, and he was forcibly returned to his own body fully. After taking a few steps back, he stabilized himself, breathing heavily. In part because of the shock from getting his consciousness flung back into his real body and in part because he was still mentally processing everything that had just gone down while he was projected.

He had no idea how well things had gone, and he wasn’t good enough at reading people to understand if he had properly tricked Yip of Yore. Nor was he entirely sure if Villy was satisfied with his performance.

Things hadn’t gone entirely to plan, and Jake had veered from the script more than he probably should have. Sure, he had covered the most important parts, but he felt like he’d definitely said a bit too much at times, and he also had the nagging feeling that he’d forgotten some important things he had to say.

After breathing heavily for a bit, Jake took a final deep breath and sighed. None of it mattered anymore. He’d done what he’d done, and things couldn’t be changed anymore. All he could do now was trust in the Malefic Viper to handle everything on his end.

Having calmed himself down, Jake finally addressed the flood of notifications he’d gained. He’d expected to get levels, but not that many, considering he’d already gotten a steady influx of experience over the last many weeks while the rumors of Jake’s betrayal of the Viper had been spreading. That made him assume the reward would be lesser… and maybe it was, but Jake was still pretty darn satisfied seeing six whole levels gained.

’DING!’ Race: [Human (C)] has reached level 293 - Stat points allocated, +45 Free Points

’DING!’ Race: [Human (C)] has reached level 295 - Stat points allocated, +45 Free Points

This leveling pace felt like he was back in D-grade again, but he knew it was only because so much was happening. He also suspected Ell’Hakan was experiencing a similar level of growth in the meantime, but that would only make him more worth it to kill once all this was over. And hopefully, a little something that could help make that kill even easier had also arrived…

Because he’d also gotten another message after reaching level 290 in his profession:

“Lord Thayne, we need to move!” Bobby yelled from outside of the now-broken magic circle after whatever Villy had done proved powerful enough to actually destroy the formation on their end through his will alone.

Jake was thrown out of his thoughts as he heard what the man said, and for a moment, he looked confused at the World Leader. Then, he realized what Bobby was getting at.
