Life In Another World 13 Slayer

Kiro and Aldin were alarmed, staring at the pitch-black pathway, a dark brown 3-foot long worm came out from the huge pile of dirt. Glancing at the worn, Kiro stared at it with disgust.

"What is that thing," Kiro said. "It is a ground worm, they usually live in an underground sewer, It was a low-grade monster. Let me handle it, I want to see the fruition of my training." Aldin said. Heading straight toward the ground worm.

'Swoosh'

A piercing sound of the Iron shovel could be heard, hitting directly at the ground worm head.

"Phew that was easy," He said while glancing at the dead ground worm. Aldin was about to head back to Kiro's direction, and suddenly another ground worm appeared.

"Eeek!" The ground worm charged toward Aldin's direction, he was caught off guard, letting the ground worm bite his arm. "Argh!" Aldin shouted in pain, grabbing the three-foot-long ground worm, while he threw it to the ground.

"Hey! Aldin are you alright?" Kiro shouted in alarm, rus.h.i.+ng toward Aldin's direction.

"I'm fine, it's just a minor wound." He said. "Anyway, Kiro can handle that monster, I'll patch up my wounds, lest I make Alyva worry."

"Okay, be careful alright, there might be some more ground worm lurking around this huge pile of dirt," Kiro said, as he uses his shovel to smash the ground worm head, but before he could. The ground worm squeals loudly.

"Eeek!~" The ground worm cried as if It was trying to call someone. A moment later, a group of the ground worm appeared before him, Kiro s.h.i.+vered in disgust, he could not help to have cold gooseb.u.mps all over his body.

"Gulp." Kiro swallowed his dry saliva while staring at the numerous ground worms endlessly popping up from the pile of dirty. "Hey, Aldin are you done?" He asked while worriedly looking at his back, but what Kiro saw. Aldin who was supposed to mend his wounds was now lying on the ground.

"Aldin what happened to you!" Kiro shouted in fright, rus.h.i.+ng toward his direction. "Master used Appraisal Skill on him, he seemed to be paralyzed." Fixie voices echoed inside Kiro's head, after hearing her voice, Kiro's rationality came back.

"[Appraisal]." He mumbles the keyword.

"Urgh." Kiro groans in pain. He was still not used to the feeling of activating the [Appraisal] skill.

"So what should I do now?" Kiro asked."Master, I think the best way to handle this situation is to Master slay all the ground worms, plus, Master might even level up after slaying all of the ground worms, so go for it Master~ Fixie will cheer on you! Fighting!" Fixie said with a teasing voice, she knows how disgusted Kiro is to the ground worm. "Can't I just carry that guy and leave this place?"

"No! Definitely not! Master should know that you can't avoid all of those ground worms while carrying a person, even though Master has a poison resistance, it was still Lv.1, so the best course of action is to Master face the enemy head-on!" Fixie said, while deep inside she is chuckling for Kiro's misfortune. She's been sleeping for so long that the first amus.e.m.e.nt she got in a long while is her Master's misfortune.

"No... No way," Kiro said while looking at the army of ground worms that keeps popping up nonstop.

Even though he said those words, Kiro is left with no choice but to confront the legion of the ground worm. He could not simply abandon Aldin here just because he was disgusted by the worms.

Holding the Iron shovel firmly, Kiro braced himself for the upcoming disaster.

***

"Haa... Haaa... Ha~" Kiro was exhausted from battling the horde of ground worms, looking at the scene before him. Kiro could not help grumble in disgust at the pile of ground worms forming a small hill.

"What..." Kiro is speechless after hearing his new t.i.tle. He could not help to curse inside.

'Ground worm slayer? Haa~ why do I always get the dumbest t.i.tle and nicknames?'

"Master, don't forget our plan. You should focus on the [Appraisal] skill first." Fixie reminds Kiro about their plan. "Okay, I know what to do," Kiro said while remembering fixie's plan to pursue the beauty.

"So how many points do I need to Upgrade the Appraisal?" Kiro asked. "Because Appraisal is an Innate Skill, the cost is much higher than the normal one. Master needs 13 more points to upgrade the Appraisal."

"So I need at least three more levels to upgrade the Appraisal skill." Kiro mumbles, suddenly he remembers that his base stats increase.

"Say, Fixie I don't know what this number represents, so how much stronger did I get?" Kiro asked in confusion, He hasn't checked out someone who has a higher level yet because of Fixie's warning.

"In terms of raw strength, Master is right now at the level of intermediate Adventurer, Hmm, I forgot Master is completely clueless about the structure of the Guild," Fixie said. "It is fine, I will learn it through this training course, Fixie doesn't need to explain it to me. I want to learn everything from this Guild, your information may not be accurate. You have been sleeping for a long time right?"

"Well, what Master said makes sense, the Information I have might not be accurate for this era."

While the two converse, the scream of a woman could be heard.

Kiro searches for the source of the sound, then he sees Alyva and Alina is finally back after dumping the dirt that was inside the cart.

Alyva rushed to Aldin's side, checking his pulse. She finally sighs in relief then glancing at Kiro, with her eyes full of questions, but before she could talk Alina shrieked in fright.

"What is it, Alina?" She stares in bewilderment at Alina who is pointing her finger at Kiro, to be exact at the small hill behind him.

Following her line of eyesight, Alyva changes her confused expression to fright, finally, she couldn't help but bolt in shock too. Cold gooseb.u.mp is running in every part of her body.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Kiro could only helplessly sigh. He could only narrate what happened in the place. After explaining, Kiro and co-started digging the dirt inside the sewer, while the two women pretended that the small hill of ground worms doesn't exist.

Aldin who was left paralyzed, finally able to move his body back in motion, glancing at Kiro with a thankful look.

It was already afternoon after they finished their task.

***

Returning to the Guild, Kiro, and co was lifelessly crouching on the ground. They could not hide their bitter expression, especially Kiro who finally managed to cleanse his body yesterday, now he is in a much worse state than before. While the others inside the training ground look at them with pity, but the people are subconsciously avoiding them because of their smell.

"Mm, good work you guys can rest early for today. Oh, I almost forgot Kiro doesn't know where the beginner's training lounge is. Kiro you can just follow Aldin, starting for today. You will be staying at the training lounge of the Guild until the course has ended." Instructor Ralph said while glancing at the four with a satisfied smile.

Seeing the Instructor's smile, the four people couldn't help to shower him with a rain of curses deep inside.

"Okay, Instructor Ralph," Kiro said while staring at the three people as if saying lead the way.

Reading Kiro's intention, the three finally move to their position and lead the way.
