Classless Ascension

Chapter 242: The Chosen One



Chapter 242: The Chosen One

A man was walking and whistling on a wild plain as he carried something hidden with a cloth in his hands. There were faint traces of blood in his hair, but otherwise, he was surprisingly clean.

Josh was happily thinking of how he\'d accomplish the mission. He could simply chuck the creature at them and head straight for their treasury. This little dino would be enough for a simple diversion, right?

In any case, he was hopeful. He knew the general direction of the enemy village. His father had looked at it hatefully as they were walking over to the savage land. He couldn\'t wait to be done with this. There would only be two more Floors remaining to clear the overall mission.

That\'s when he noticed a small house that stood there alone in the middle of nowhere. It was a wooden one that looked pretty rustic. He quickly knocked and soon appeared an oddly disturbing creature.

It seemed to be some kind of Neapolitan mastiff, but it was humanoid and had a face that was even more droopy than the animal. It was a fat one that seemed to have more skin and fat than visage! Josh couldn\'t even see the guy\'s eyes!

"You\'re not from around here, are you? No one from around here visits me." He barked.

"I\'m looking for the Hard-Paws Clan\'s village. Could you point me in the right direction?" Josh politely asked.

"Grrr, you shouldn\'t do business with these assholes. They called me a faceless fat bastard! The audacity!" The dog grumbled. Josh would have to congratulate them for having eyes!

"Actually, they stole a bone from me, and I\'m here to get it back," Josh admitted. Instantly the dog …probably smiled? At least, that\'s what he felt.

"Hahaha, great! Just head this way. You can\'t miss it!"The dog gleefully pointed.

After that short encounter, Josh soon noticed the enemy village in the distance. Now, how was he supposed to play this? He could straight-up begin a killing spree, but maybe that would endanger the mission.

After all, they were all the same species, and there had been mention of ruling over the other clans.

Josh went up to the village entrance that was the only access in the tall wooden palisade. Two guard dogs watched him vigilantly as he approached, one even sniffing. "Identify yourself!" One shouted.

<Guard Dog Lv 19>

Not only was the enemy the same level as him, but it was also a common enemy. That\'s when Josh realized that he had perhaps overestimated them. Compared to the level 60 elite dinosaurs, they were dogshit!

Josh began cackling in relief. He had the feeling of someone that had just figured out the cheat code to activate god mode. As long as no hidden ancestor showed up, Josh would be invincible! He couldn\'t help but grin.

He didn\'t even bother with them and just walked inside. Oh, they tried stopping him, but he bitch slapped them hard and just kept walking nonchalantly. They began barking crazily, but he ignored them.

That is when about 50 dogs came out of various houses and began encircling him while growling. They looked like attack dogs ready to pounce as soon as they received the signal.

A gray husky-looking old guy slowly made his way forward. "You sure are reckless not to abide the warnings of our guards. Where are you from, mutt?" He said while looking displeased.

"I\'ll cut to the chase. You guys stole the ancestral bone of the Heroic-Paws Clan through devious means. Now, hand it over, or I\'ll fight all of you." Josh confidently declared. This instantly fueled so many comments.

"He\'ll fight us?"

"This mutt is crazy. Can\'t he see that he\'s outnumbered …a lot to 1!"

"He probably went insane from grief."

"Hehe, what an idiot. He gave it willingly, and now he thinks he can just take it back?"

"Let\'s beat him up!"

"Yeah!"

Their leader silenced them before speaking once more in a mocking tone.

"There is a war about to happen. For that exact reason, we shouldn\'t indulge in needless dog-on-dog violence. I\'ll forgive you this once but go back home. I\'m sure your father is missing you at Heroic-Paws Village" His cronies instantly began praising his benevolence.

Josh could only nod his head in understanding. He slowly removed the cloth covering the dinosaur, causing it to wake up and observe its surroundings excitingly. That is when it made contact with the village chief and licked its lips.

The dog had been extremely arrogant, but suddenly, he began shaking all over, his eyes bulging, the ears going backward and tail tucked. What he was seeing would require an ace up one\'s fur to even survive against it!

Their leader had recognized the lizard. While they were around level 20 and 30, this thing monster was level 60! Whether that NPC could see levels or not was irrelevant. It understood that should Josh release his grip. The whole place would turn into a bloodbath.

"Alright, guess we fight—" Josh calmly said while the other dogs were still laughing their ticks off.

"WAIT!" Their leader cried out, dropping on the ground in a submissive posture right before Josh. "Please spare us! You can be the pack leader from now on!" He sounded sincere.

The bystander\'s jaws were reaching the floor in utter confusion. People couldn\'t believe their ears! One even thought it was a joke as he chuckled. "Stop joking, chief we—"

"Dumbass, do you want to doom us all?! This esteemed Sir is a legendary warrior! Serving him is our blessing! Hurry up and kneel, all of you!" Their leader was shouting at them, visibly nervous.

Angering Josh would mean their demise. They were still confused, but they believed in their chief as they slowly prostrated themselves on the ground. Josh couldn\'t help but be baffled. That was it? Wasn\'t this too easy?

"Anyway, where is my bone?" Josh sternly inquired.

"I\'ll get it right away, Sir!" Their chief ran away at a speed that spoke of his talents: he could fetch good!

A few instants later, he came back carrying a box reverently. It seemed simple, but Josh had the feeling it was made of extremely luxurious wood by their standards. He then handed it while bowing. At least his attitude was good now! Josh slowly opened the box with one hand.

The container had a lovely red velvet cloth carefully wrapped around the bone. He carefully uncovered it, and instantly he grimaced in anger. He recognized this bone way too well: it was a Speedy Lizard bone.

Not only was it from a weak monster, but it also had small cracks all over. This thing was evidently fake! There was no way that a legendary hero of old would have only reached this standard! Even with villagers being level 20-30, this was pathetic.

Josh lost his cool as he slowly growled in anger: "Do you take me for a fool? Are you trying to deceive me with such fake goods? This is what I do with such bullshit!"

He grabbed the bone and grounded it into dust under their horrified eyes. They had fucked up! Should he release the raptor on their ass? Maybe...

Creator\'s Thought

This has always been a great trick to convince people of your holiness: you get anyone that opposes you killed. That is how one becomes a tyrant? Who cares, it\'s a simulation anyway. The only hiccup to that was the worthless old bone. I actually slightly lost my temper over that one haha. It happens.
