Chapter 234 Moving to a new world....

?Two hours had passed as Adam attempted to absorb magical energy using the old technique. Despite his expectations, the results were extremely weak, and he only felt a slight sense of satisfaction.

"This is strange. In the Mortal Realm, I would have improved my body in this time, and considering the purity difference in magical energy, I could have easily advanced to the next level. But here, I only feel like I've had a meal," thought Adam with a sigh, turning his attention to the entrance.

The situation hadn't changed much over the past few hours. He was in a small recessed cave with enough space for an adult. The exit revealed a beach view, and somewhere in the distance, there was a forest.

Despite a strong desire to explore everything around him, he had to restrain himself, not wanting to perish at the hands of the first monster he encountered. Brushing off the dust, he stood up and decided, at the very least, to find something to fill the emptiness between his teeth. Feeding solely on magical energy was somewhat inconvenient, and he still felt hunger that simple refinement couldn't satisfy.

As he moved away from the cave for about two kilometers, he stumbled upon a tree, but he was afraid to approach too closely. His gaze immediately detected huge walls in the distance, resembling the massive fences used in human cities. This surprised him.

"Do humans inhabit this place? How fascinating," he thought, but he didn't dare to approach them. "Who knows how demons are viewed in this world? If I enter the city, and they discover me, the only thing waiting for me behind will be endless torture, followed by a pathetic death."

He sighed, shaking his head. Just a month ago, he was a powerful figure with significant assets, owning two cities. There weren't many people worldwide who could threaten him, so he was extremely relaxed. However, now he found himself in deep trouble.

After a few checks, he grabbed some fruits from the tree and quickly returned to his cave, blocking the entrance with a boulder he found near the beach.

Seating himself on the floor, he retrieved the fruits and noticed their shape, resembling apples but twice as large. Moreover, they differed from regular apples in being square-shaped. A fragrant aroma emanated from these fruits, both red and green.

Swallowing his saliva, he felt his stomach begging him to eat the apple. However, despite this, he hesitated. In this new world, it was unknown what was suitable for consumption and what wasn't. Therefore, he remained cautious and decided to test first.

Breaking off a piece of the apple, he placed it at the entrance to the cave. Birds occasionally flew here to rest since the sun shone best in this spot. After an hour, a bird resembling a tit finally arrived. It glanced around and then started pecking at the small piece of the apple. After a few minutes, the tit flew away, remaining unharmed.

"Well, if it's still flying, then everything is fine," he thought and took a bite of the green apple from which he had previously broken off a piece.

The first bite brought a slightly tart taste, which spread throughout his mouth. The apple juice brought a flow of magical energy directly into his stomach. It was a pleasant feeling of relaxation as if he had taken a shower after a long journey.

"How refreshing!" exclaimed Adam with pleasant surprise.

His mouth moved on its own, devouring all the fruits. After two minutes, the apples disappeared completely, transferring into his stomach. Finally, he felt full and satisfied, lying down on the floor.

His magic channels actively transported the newly acquired magical energy, directing it towards the golden sphere, where it purified and transformed into convenient-to-use magical energy. Adam's entire body strengthened.

After a few hours of tidying up, the man fell asleep. Beyond the cave, only darkness was visible, and the distant city still burned brightly with the lights of lanterns.

Suddenly, the city gates opened, and over a hundred people poured out, dressed in iron armor. They held somewhat battered swords and axes. Fear was evident on their faces, but despite this, they headed towards the beach. In the center of the formation walked a middle-aged man with rugged features. Short, red hair, blue eyes, and a muscular and robust body. He wore no armor but held an axe, the tip of which gleamed brightly.

Without turning around, he spoke loudly and courageously in a warrior's voice, "Follow me, men! For the preservation of our village, we must rid ourselves of the monsters! How long must we fear the unknown from the Death Forest?!"

"Fight!"

"Fight!"

In response to his rallying cry, excited shouts erupted, but considering the number of people, it was clear that not everyone was in good spirits. Nevertheless, the gates slammed shut, and there was no turning back.

***

Deep into the night, Adam was awakened by the noise and clanging of swords, as if a battle had taken place. He frowned and immediately became alert, as the sounds were close enough to his cave. Approaching the entrance, he slightly moved the boulder aside to observe what was happening.

"What a horror..."

He froze in shock, witnessing over a hundred people battling monsters resembling wolves, but the difference lay in their size – they were the size of a five-story house! There were six of these wolves, and their level was ranked at "A+."

"These people are strong... the weakest among them is at level B+, which already constitutes significant military power. Is the Higher Realm truly this terrifying?" Adam thought in shock, furrowing his brow. "I was right not to venture into that enormous city."

He observed as more than ten people gathered around one wolf, while the others restrained the remaining five. Afterward, a bright flash occurred, and chains emerged from the ground, restraining the wolf and preventing it from moving.

"Grrr!"

A loud growl filled with anger and disappointment echoed. Immediately after immobilizing the wolf, a crowd of men began inflicting wounds, using both magical spells and brute force combined with swords.

"Grrr! Raaaar!"

The wolf roared in pain, its legs giving way as it fell to the ground, bleeding. The scene was extremely brutal, and the actions of the people were swift. Soon, the wolf fell silent forever.

The remaining five displayed an astonishing reaction, and soon, a powerful pressure enveloped the surrounding space for ten kilometers, causing even Adam to feel suffocated. He had to close the entrance and retreat deeper, pressing his back against the wall.

Two hours passed. The cries and roars of wolves were still audible, but when it came to the wolves, the situation seemed worse for the humans. There were fewer cries, and the aura of the people had decreased significantly. Only three wolves remained alive, and there were approximately fifty humans.

"What horrifying auras. As much as I want to peek, even the aura flow from their battle could harm me," he thought, frowning and feeling in danger. "The Higher Realm... what a terrifying place. If I can't find a way to restore my level of development, there's a high chance I'll become a casualty."

Crossing his legs, he decided to use the time to his advantage and at least achieve full adaptation of his body to the magical energy of this world. Closing his eyes, all six of his senses were muted, leaving only darkness, in which he observed flashes of light, which were magical particles.

For novices, absorbing magical energy was akin to those mobile games from his past life where one had to combine fragments of several items to get something better. This is roughly how the absorption of magic works for those just stepping onto the path of evolution.

Connecting magical particles one by one, Adam felt a small surge in his magical heart (the white sphere). The sensation was pleasant.

Meanwhile, while Adam was immersed in meditation, the battle in the external world was coming to an end. There were no winners or losers; both sides suffered heavy losses. Only two wolves and thirty-five warriors remained. If the human bodies were stacked, they could form a mountain.

"Raaaar!"

With no other choice, one of the colossal wolves, whose body was bleeding, let out a loud howl. Together with its surviving companion, they quickly fled towards the forest.

"Ha-a..."

The man leading the entire squad, who had guided them into battle, appeared battered. His body was covered in countless wounds, bleeding profusely, making it extremely difficult to recognize him. Moreover, he couldn't move his limbs; some blows had struck his bones, breaking them.

"What a disgrace. I had hoped for the destruction of these monsters," he muttered in a subdued tone, feeling intense fatigue and pain.

Surveying the surroundings, the man squinted his warrior-like blue eyes and bit his lips, witnessing the number of casualties.

"At the beginning, there were more than a hundred of us, and now we're no more than thirty-five. What a shame, what horror..."

As the village leader, his task was to care for his residents, ensuring their safety and other conveniences. However, with his own hands, he had destroyed so many lives...

The sense of guilt consumed him from within, but he didn't allow it to spread further than necessary. Frowning, the man quickly dispelled the growing demons in his heart, waiting to seize him.

"Nonsense. Regretting this is too late. At least, we got rid of four monsters. Their carcasses can provide us with significant development. Cities pay handsomely for such monsters," the man thought and lifted his gaze, looking at the moon. Pressing his lips together, he began to pray to the Moon Goddess with trembling hands, "Oh, Almighty Moon Goddess, grant us your blessing and protect our children. May the brave warriors who fell in battle be freed from the burden and live in the next life only in happiness."

His murmuring reached the surviving warriors, who also clasped their hands over their chests and began to pray. Closing their eyes, they started praising the goddess and seeking her favor.

And then, in the silent night, a bright radiance appeared.
