Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

394  393: Mountain Goats? (Seventh Bonus Chapter)

If there was one thing Selene wished was given to them before they entered the Dimension of The Old Ones, it was a map of the shattered dimension.

Selene had zero information on the shattered dimension, and she had no idea on where to go. For all she knew, whatever path she took after leaving the cave could be fraught with untold and immense dangers.

However, she had no choice but to pick a path.

Deciding to bank on the most important information she had of this place, Selene chose to take the path that was in the direction of the golden staircase she could see from where she was.

Although she was a little bit fearful of the unknown, she had lived in the Underworld all her life and danger was nothing new to her.

As she moved down the path that led in the direction of the golden staircase, she also used the opportunity to sightsee and observe the mountains around her in awe and excitement.

In the first hour, she had been excited and intrigued by the mountains around her. However, after she saw nothing else, not even a sign of an animal, beast, monster, or even another human, she became bored and also slightly worried.

Was she the only living being in this region filled with nothing but mountains?

Minutes after she had this thought, she saw another living being. Although it was something she never expected.

It resembled an animal she had never seen physically, but she had seen such animals in images.

'Is that a… goat?... A mutated goat?'

This was her thought as she observed the extremely strange looking goat that was standing with ease on the mountain. What surprised Selene was the manner in which the goat stood on the mountain.

It was extremely bigger than the goats she saw in some images. It also had spikes coming out of its spine, and it had rock like skin beneath its brown fur. It's horns also seemed metallic.

It barely had enough ground to stand, and it stood with the side of its body hugging the mountain side while chewing on a dry grass.

'What an odd animal. How is it comfortable while eating and standing like that?'

Selen's eyes sparkled with curiousity, and just as she was observing the mountain goat, the moutain goat noticed her. It's blue eyes glowed with a tinge of intelligence and also coldness as it stared at Selene.

Selene did not know why, but she felt a chill run down her spine as she gazed into the cold blue eyes of the goat.

Mahhh!!!

The goat bleated, and then to Selene's surprise and bafflement, it jumped towards her with its metallic horns pointed her.

It jumped three times to reach the ground, and when it did, it bleated once again and ran at its fastest while emitting a malicious intent.

Selene raised her brows in surprise as she watched the goat run towards her at a speed that was extremely slow in her eyes.

Although her skill- Scan, did not work on the beast, she could feel that the beast's strength was like that of a tier 1. Although, an above average tier 1.

Regardless of how absurd the stats of the beast in front of her was, since it was still a tier 1, there was no way it would be a match for her.

She was a tier 4, a mystic being. Although she was still an early tier 4, that did not matter in the slightest when it came to a tier 1.

Even if Corey's stats at tier 1 were all in the black star, he would not be able to defeat a tier 4 no matter what. The difference between a tier 1 and a tier 4 was as great as the difference between heaven and earth.

When Selene saw the beast approach her with a malicious intent, although she was curious, she decided not to waste too much time on the beast and kill it. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The weapon that she was allowed to use in the shattered dimension was a long sword, however, it was extremely weak and fragile.

A red grade longsword would never be able to handle mystic energy, and what she wielded was mystic energy, not astral energy.

She decided to kill the strange goat to see just how much improvement its blood and soul would have on her longsword.

With an effortless swing of her sword, she killed the goat, and just as The Clown said, her longsword was strengthened after she killed the goat with her longsword.

However, the improvement was little and not much at all.

She was disappointed, however, she also didn't expect much since it was just a single tier 1 beast she killed.

Just as she was about to store her sword away and keep on moving, she felt vibrations all around her. She was stunned and confused, and then she looked at the mountains and hills all around her.

Everything was trembling, and even the ground was no exception.

A terrible feeling of crisis emerged in her heart and she knew she had to leave where she was. So… she ran.

Although she was a mystic being, she trusted her instincts which had been formed after numerous deadly and dangerous encounters in the Underworld.

Her speed was incredibly fast, and in less than ten seconds, she had already crossed a kilometer which was not surprising since her specialty was in her speed.

As she ran, she looked behind her, and what she saw made her heart to skip several beats.

Several meters behind her was a herd of similar looking goats. Most of these goats were weaker, possessing strength that was below that of a tier 4, however, the sheer number of the goats sent a chill across her soul.

What made it worse for her was that she could sense a few goats that possessed the strength of a tier 4, and she knew that she would be fucked if she was caught by these goats.

What Selene didn't know was that a goat was never alone, it was always part of a herd, and if a single goat of a herd dies, the entire herd would know and one would have to face the wrath of a herd of goats.

Unfortunately for her, the goat she encountered could be a considered a child that could not control itself. Assuming it was an older goat, Selene would not have been attacked by the goat as long as she did not get too close to the goat or the feeding ground of the herd.

This was what led to the beginning of her suffering in this region of mountains.
