PREVIOUSLY :
The Mc went out of the village to explore the world, and he entered a desolate mountain range close to his village, after entering he encountered various dangers, and after getting deep inside he battled green monsters and got out victorious although gravely injured, nonetheless he survived and got wind of a battle for supremacy that will soon begin.
After getting the news from the foxes I decided to have a conversation with kara before proceeding to hatch a plan so I got back to my lair ok it’s not a proper lair but to the hole in the ground I mentioned before.
°so kara what is all that shit with the fox type monsters°(MC)(AN: the mc still do not have a name for some reason that you will know later)
°master, from the data I had been gathering all this time ° a beautiful kitsune in a sexy business suit stand in front of me then glasses and a digital notebook appear out of nowhere and she fixe her glasses like a sexy librarian and continue speaking after she made a hologram screen appear in front of me showing some of her observations and statistic and continued explaining while showing me schematic and other professional stuff
°this here show that when interacting with the fox species they reacted to some hormones that are made naturally from your body of the kyubi jinshuriki, and these hormones carry a scent of closeness to the specie, like they met their ancestor, or a close parent°(kara)
°so you are basically saying fox monsters won’t attack me°(mc)
°negative master, weaker fox species will not attack you and may even help you, while fox species that are stronger than you will at least not attack on sight and may be friendly, but there are exceptions, nothing is absolute master, exercise caution is recommended master°(kara)
°ok so I have to be careful anyway and take advantage of the situation°(mc)
°yes master° she answers back flashing me a stunning smile, and breaking her serious and all business mode then I broke the link and made my way out of my mind scape what? How my mind scape looks? That’s a story for another time.
So getting back to business I have to plan how I will benefit from the upcoming battle.

2 months passed since, and I prepared many things, so first I made a pocket dimension to escape to and bridged it to the one I made previously as a precaution, from what I remember from the novel monsters of a certain realm are very powerful and can detect aura other can even lock on your soul signature and chase you for miles without relenting and when I say miles I mean millions upon millions of miles so I have to be careful and plan well, for even if the monster that I may steal something from lock on my soul signature, they will lose the feel of it after sometime and after they get some treasure, they will hide in places that are very dangerous.
Aside from that they can feel every movement by sensing the air flow, even if you are invisible the simple fact of breathing will alert them of your position and some very sensitive ones can detect you from the beat of your heart, there are a lot of ways to detect you
So after I made the pocket dimension I added multiple access and exit points all over the place
Secondly I created a lot of shadow clones and scattered them as well while ordering them to henge into rocks and immersive foliage but that wasn’t enough so I spent an important quantity of points into buying smell erasing powder, earthly scent powder, plant scent powder
Clones normally will not have smell, weight, and other material characteristics but shadow clone are special and my own clones are even more special, I spent a considerable amount of time and chakra into making them as real as possible
Now some may ask why? Well you see some time ago when I was experimenting on the shadow jutsu I used half of my and kara’s chakra and after creating the shadow clone a window showed up asking me the lvl of access of the system I want to give to the clone so now after creating the multitudes of clones I gave them access to inventory and voila I am at a safe distance and with lots of reward
And when it think of all the protagonist of stories that risk their life getting treasures and stuff, making enemies everywhere it pains me that I didn’t get it even more easier those son of bitches get the ultimate weapon plot armor and I get shit, only some bitchy promise that I will survive at least 100 years, but not that I will live it peacefully or in one piece (AN: pun alert!!), so if I get crippled, lost a limb or something, or even get tortured for 100 years I will survive in the end, at least physically
Personally I don’t think I can survive being tortured, if I acclimate myself to the environment maybe OH! Wait I was already tortured coming to this world so no fear I can take torture
Fuck this doesn’t reassure me, getting tortured is definitely bad so take caution, be aware of your enemies wait didn’t I have a power to sense emotions, thanks kara again for being here as always you’re the best
“argh *spit mouthful of blood”(mc)
Well some mother fucking monster attacked while I was daily dreaming this sucks
*BOOOM*
Explosive paper is really helpful, what? You want to know what happened well it is easy the bitch attacked with its hooves, it was some kind of pangolin-goat mix, so the moment before it hit me I put dozen Ex. paper on its soft belly and some on its neck and it turns into blood mist
{Henge}
I quickly recover from my injury and I hide as a rock on a mountain some distance away

BEGIN OPERATION!!!
With my command every clone started spreading around the perimeter of the cave the creature was in and got into position and we waited
.
.
.
Everything was silent not even the smallest noise could be heard, if you dropped a needle you could hear it echo within the valley and then it appeared majestic with an air of an emperor, ruler of all, you would feel inferior just gazing at it
It had a white scaly body of a dear, head of a dragon, long reptile tail, a white mane that represented wisdom, it’s horns looked like little wings, it’s snout was not long but kept close to its face, it’s eyes burned a crimson red and finally it’s body was 6 meters tall and 15 meters long without counting the tail, densely muscular with bone protrusions all over its body
The beast roared and the whole place shacked, the air turned turbulent and dark clouds started gathering, and it was then that other roars answered their defiance and 2 creatures appeared in the distance with an army of monsters following behind as if a human general was leading his follower to war
The first beast was a unicorn kangaroo wearing what shockingly seems to be red boxing gloves, it’s legs were like that of a human except for the orange fur that covered its body and it was coming closer with momentary bursts of speed holding a stance like a boxer and did I mention that it was 10-meter-tall with a slender build, behind it was a flock of beasts that have some humanoid characteristics either legs or hands or even human torse they were moving in spirals
The second was just as strange a crow body and head with cow legs and horns, it was covered with fire, its high was 8 meters, and 4 meters’ large back, and 5 meters long with a feathered tail, it was running in a straight line and the army behind it was similar to it in every aspect except the bird species, this group was in an arrow formation
If I had to guess I will say had these two groups were factions, like sects for humans, and from the similarity of the techniques and their coordination I will say that they are definitely a sect of some sort and the two leaders are the headmasters
But made even more amazed is the flying beasts that seemed to not belong to a specific faction, they moved chaotically some formed small groups, others were alone and then the different groups collided and what was once a peaceful valley became a battlefield
After few minutes’ hundreds of slots from my inventory were filled with corpses some whole, some slots were filled with organs, some with only parts, it was a mess
It had been 2 hours and the battle is still raging the monster tide seems endless and I got some thousands of specimen, I killed some that were still alive, but heavily wounded or on the brink of death, thus striking multiple birds with one stone, gathering blood for the rite of passage, getting meat to supplement our bodies with sufficient nutriments to our growth me and my children, getting points for the system purchases and training my stealth and some other things I may not be aware of
The situation does not change on the battlefield but the battle of the three powerhouses are something else I cannot see anything even with the sharingan it is just a series of blurs here and there, sometimes the aftershock would make its way outside their fight and some tens of poor creatures turn to pulp and clones gets destroyed but overall I have a good harvest, just waiting for the critical moment
And by the way I wasn’t the only one hiding and snatching prey, there were some smart ones that thought the same as me and decided to better eat the fallen rather than participate in the battle
I even spotted some humans fighting at the outskirt and take away some weaker creatures
Anyway I think the battle is at its climax the quilin started fighting without regards to anything
A white blur rushed to an orange blur, a horn flew at a mountain peak turning it dust, of immediately the 2 meters’ horn found itself in my inventory
After that the blur jumped like a cat and summersaulted onto the back of a fire ball and ripped something off and held it in its mouth retreating fast and they stood on land still and to my surprise an orange and another fiery reddish orange blurred into different direction and disappeared in seconds on the horizon
The quilin roared proclaiming its victory after spiting what seems to be the front leg of the crow-cow still burning, immediately afterward it spat a mouthful of black feathers, one of its horns brock and fell into the ground, blood started spilling from its head
After seeing that it went into a black rage and started slaughtering and destroying everything in its path, and all the creatures followed their instinct telling them to run for their life immediately the once chaotic battlefield was empty as if nothing happened here, except the blood and corpse ridden land nothing remained but one majestic creature that stands in the middle of it all without movement
After a few moments it lost the spark of life from its eyes and a crack noise reverberated in what was once a valley now flat land
From what I remember of the novel every species that inherit bone techniques of it ancestors guard its secret with its life so before dying such creatures as this quilin destroys its bones
The only way to get a bone technique is by either raising it from its infancy or get lucky
Anyway now that the way is clear I put down the henge on the clones and started cleaning the field and after taking everything I noticed that there were some pools of blood here and there and got the urge to say something and I didn’t restrain myself
“if I left those pools wouldn’t I be struck by lightning” (mc)
Hahahahaha it felt great to say those words so I ordered the clones to start gathering the blood
While the clones were doing their jobs I made my way into the cave of the quilin that strangely didn’t get damaged at all so I went inside, but I found nothing apart from some scales here and there, bones and other things, decaying things nothing was here
Well that is until I found a human palm indent at the end of the cave so out of curiosity I put my hand in it and it lit and the part of the wall slides like an elevator leading to a small room
At the far end of the room I found something that shocked me really, it was a sort of altar on it was a stone tablet with English engravings, yes there was a text written in English, and beside it was a gourd, a little ball of red thread and an egg, I didn’t know anything about this shit so I did the most obvious thing someone would do I first created a passage to the pocket dimension called four clones made my way into the passage and after closing the passage I had a very bad premonition so I gave the clones the order to simultaneously take the items in my inventory after 5 minutes, then I made my way to the village pocket dimension and I lost contact
Yes! I lost contact normally after the shadow clones are destroyed they give back their memories and experience but here I got nothing as if they didn’t exist in the first place, even the pocket dimension there vanished so I checked my inventory and the four items were there so I took the tablet which I understood the most and it read
After reading this the stone that enveloped the tablet disintegrated.
