Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1170: Chapter 55: Knight and Scabby Toad

Void, Shallow layer of the Abyss.

On a black desert lined with strange stones, a gust of fierce wind swept through, spinning large black sand particles and dragging a bone-devouring rat that just emerged from a ground hole into it.

The fierce wind instantly tore open the bone-devouring rat’s fur and skin, stripping its flesh away, leaving it a skeleton covered in red blood threads.

With a crash, the skeleton of the bone-devouring rat shattered, carried away by the fierce wind.

Thump, thump, thump...

A giant beast resembling a rhino with bone spurs all over its back walked on the black desert. It was at least ten meters tall, over thirty meters long, with black markings covering all four hooves, and its body was wrapped in patches of black bone armor.

”Woo~”

The giant beast raised its head and let out a low roar, seemingly calling its kind.

Near a black rock not far from the giant beast, there was a black mound on the ground. If looked at closely, you’d realize this was something covered with animal skin, a skin full of black scales.

The thing hidden under the scaly skin moved slightly, and soon, a fair arm reached out from within, showing dried blood on that arm.

”I slept... for about three hours. Haven’t had such a good sleep in a long time.”

A female voice came from within the scaly skin. Moments later, the owner of the voice sat up, her head full of golden hair, slightly frizzy, with a tuft sticking up.

Judging by her appearance, the golden-haired girl had just woken up, looking very confused, as if silently asking, where am I? Who am I? What am I doing?

The reason the golden-haired girl was like this was due to an encounter three days ago. She ran into a starving exile who had lost his mind. The girl couldn’t discern the exile’s race but could only judge he was a Subhuman from his form.

Back then, the golden-haired girl had two choices: one, slaughter the Subhuman with whom she had no grievances, or two, be eaten, gnawed down to a pile of white bones.

The result was the golden-haired girl slaughtering the Subhuman, but she received a heavy strike to the head, leading to this scene upon waking up. Her current bewildered state was purely a post-impact aftereffect.

Moments later, the girl’s emerald eyes regained their sparkle. She grabbed the sword hilt beside her and jumped up from the ground.

The girl held the sword with both hands, instinctively sinking her stance. This was unlike her previous combat style, where she kept her balance at her waist, but after a hell-level real battle, her combat style changed slightly.

”So it’s you.”

The golden-haired girl let out a sigh of relief after seeing the giant beast staring at her.

”Woo~”

The giant beast raised its head and let out a long roar, seemingly greeting the golden-haired girl.

”You got separated from your kind again?”

”Woo!”

The giant beast appeared fierce but was actually an omnivorous creature. It wouldn’t eat meat if it could eat plants.

”I saw your group in the Undead Valley three days ago, come with me.”

The golden eyes closed tightly, and after a short moment, her eyes suddenly opened.

At this moment, the scenery in the golden-haired girl’s vision changed drastically, with the surrounding world turning gray. Various colored footprints appeared on the ground: red ones left by extremely dangerous creatures, white ones indicating prey that could be hunted for food, and black ones left by invincible entities.

The golden-haired girl held a Knight Sword and walked in one direction, with the giant beast following behind her.

Shortly after the golden-haired girl left, a spatial fluctuation occurred, and a scabby toad emerged from the space.

With a plop, the scabby toad squatted on the ground, wearing a crown, holding a feather pen in its right hand, and a thick notebook in its left.

”Seems like progress is good, continue the trial for 107 days, and she’ll qualify as a Ruler, but there’s a character issue, still reaches out to the weak for help, a Ruler needs absolute impartiality, which conflicts with her knightly spirit. All others in the trial batch are dead, only the last one has a character issue, irritating the toad.”

The scabby toad scratched its head with the feather pen, preparing to do something, knowing well it wouldn’t fare well without a single Official Judge emerging from a batch of reserve judges.

”It seems she has a good relationship with the Lelisno Clan in the Abyss. Those little Mouse People underground have helped her many times, so...”

The scabby toad let out a sinister laugh and tapped the notebook with the feather pen.

”No. 1045.”

The scabby toad spoke to the thick notebook.

”What is it, I’m busy right now.”

A rough male voice came from the notebook, with faint sounds of shouting and killing.

”Which race are you slaughtering again? I’ve told you several times not to randomly slaughter those species from remote planets.”

The scabby toad felt a bit distressed as No. 1045 in its words was practically a butcher.

”Slaughter... is my only pleasure. Only through slaughter can I feel alive...”

”Stop! Stop! Indeed, it’s your own fault you’re sealed. There’s something I need your help with.”

”What is it.”

”Come to the Abyss.”

”Kill?”

”No, just scare them a bit. A girl who’s grown too accustomed to this place needs reminding of the taste of despair.”

”Despair... sounds good.”

”Then hurry, it’s more interesting than you think here, though the wind is a bit strong.”

The scabby toad stood in the fierce wind, yawning mouth wide open. Such wind that some of the shallow layer of the Abyss feared was merely a bit refreshing to it.

...

Su Xiao sat on the carpet in his exclusive room, closing the rewards settlement list. Based on experiences from the Naruto World and Hunter World, he realized obtaining True Attribute Points was harder than he imagined.

In the previous Naruto World, he obtained an S rating but only received 8 True Attribute Points. This time’s S- rating only granted 7 points mainly because of the numerous True Attribute Points acquired during tasks, totaling 4 points.

True Attribute Points may seem few, but they actually correspond to the effect of 35 Ordinary Attribute Points, an extraordinarily significant improvement.
