Mixed Blessing System

After leaving the previous area in a hurry, Lothur was chased for tens of meters by hundreds of bees as big as ping-pong balls from his previous life.

Such organisms had black and yellow bodies, stings the size of ordinary needles, which looked especially threatening at first sight.

But not only this had caught Lothur's attention. Those beings' speed was frightening since they had managed to keep up with him even though he was a cultivator at 3rd Transformation!

"Damn it!" He said some curses while waving his hands, trying to push those beings away.

However, he could not protect himself from all those insects in his surroundings, having already suffered a lot with the stings from those beings.

"Ouch!" He let out a sound of pain amidst his teeth clenched against each other, experiencing the toxin of the bees of this world.

'Fuck, it hurts!' He realized that even though his Constitution was far superior to mortals, these common insects were causing him more than they would if they were on Earth.

'It seems that even common animals of this world are more powerful than those on earth...'

Feeling some of those beings entering through the gaps in his clothes, Lothur spotted the entrance to a small cave, to which he ran as he tried to crush the beings bothering him.

As he did so, he soon observed the surroundings of that cave, checking to see if there were any animals or people there.

The cave was about 10 meters long, from its entrance to the deepest part, and was mostly an irregular s-shaped tunnel, quite dark, even though it was still daytime.

Lothur then realized nothing significant in his surroundings and threw himself to the ground, rolling from side to side.

As he did so, he immediately heard the sound of those insects being crushed. At the same time, the pain around his body increased due to the various stings around his skin.

"Hell!"

"Ahhhhhh!" He closed his eyes as he expressed his pain, finally slowing his movement as he realized that all the bees on his clothes had been crushed.

Noticing this, he looked at that dark place that he could see well enough not to trip over anything and sighed in relief as he realized that other bees had not chased him.

He then sat down cross-legged, feeling chills run through his body. Then, he began to take off some of his clothes, intending to remove the stings on his skin.

Bee stings had substances toxic to humans that could even cause problems for low-level cultivators like Lothur. With that in mind, he did not want to keep that on his body and promptly began to remove them.

"Ouch!" He grunted in pain, feeling the irregularities of one of the stings hurting his body even more.

And after doing this for two full minutes, this young man finished removing the nearly 30 stings from his skin.

Looking down at his arms, which had been the part of his body most affected, Lothur shivered sweaty from the previous exertion.

'I didn't think such a thing would leave such big bruises!' He looked at the swelling on his arms, shocked by the blisters on that part of his body.

But as he felt a strange sensation in his body from the bee venom, Lothur finally realized what he had done.

He thought of the image from earlier when he had killed those people coldly, of the brutal way he had left those bodies.

Remembering the screams of pain and the feeling of his enemies' blood on his hands, he looked at the ax lying on the ground beside him and saw the proof of what he had done.

Then he suddenly felt sick, as if he had eaten rotten food and had to put out the entire contents of his stomach.

He put both hands on the floor, supporting his upper body, while his mouth opened with the spasms of his esophagus. Then, after feeling a great chill go through his body, he finally could not hold back and vomit in that place.

'I killed those people!' He rationalized what he had done, feeling the belated guilt for having done something so heinous, something unacceptable where he had grown up.

A few moments ago, Lothur acted on his survival instincts, following the jungle law to ensure his stay in this world. That had not been something done coldly but had been a reaction influenced little by reason.

In fact, thinking about what had happened, Lothur could hardly believe his actions since that one did not look like him at all.

But that was none other than Lothur. In the previous situation, he had acted as quickly as possible, leaving little time for him to consider how wrong it was to kill another human.

All in his mind in those moments was a primitive desire, a will to eliminate the threats in his path. And such a thing had neutralized the mental part of Lothur that commanded his moral principles.

In a way, like the pain that would come with an injury while an athlete was exercising, the actual weight of his action had not arrived during his 'exercise.'

At the time of an injury during physical activity, due to the condition of the body, the pain was usually greatly diminished, and only after the body cooled down would the worst come.

The same thing had happened to Lothur when he killed for the first time in his life!

But having time to ponder over it, the guilt and terrible feeling related to his previous action hit him hard!

'How could I have done that? I killed those people as if they were nothing!' He felt even sicker, ignoring his surroundings while shaking vigorously.

'Even an animal wouldn't deserve that!'

But unable to accept what he had done, he looked up and suddenly saw something that startled him.

As he looked up at the top of that cave, Lothur finally saw an almost 1-meter-long spider standing in that place, looking in his direction.

Gulp!

Seeing the many eyes of that creature, Lothur was quick to move towards his ax, preparing to eliminate it.

But when he made this sudden movement, the creature jumped, already making a move to neutralize him with its wires, as it seemed ready to bite him.

'Holy crap!'

'How did I miss such a large creature?' Lothur finally managed to calm down a bit from his previous emotions, feeling his mind once again working with clarity.

With that, he promptly used his movement technique coupled with his agility to dodge the enemy attack, rolling across the ground until he fell beside his weapon.

Next, he did not wait for that being to continue threatening his life and made a horizontal move against that spider's legs.

He did not know exactly how to eliminate his opponent in one stroke as there were no spiders of that size on Earth. Therefore, as it might have unusual characteristics that would surprise him later, he did the basics to stop it.

Without its mobility, that spider would be in a rather precarious situation. With this in mind, Lothur quickly tried to cut off half of its legs in a single blow.

At the same time, that being made a move trying to use its poisonous claws, aiming at Lothur's body.

Due to his attack and proximity to that being, Lothur was unable to dodge in time, having part of his arms scratched by one of its claws.

"Shit!"

"Die, insect!" He shouted in anger after suffering that and finishing cutting off some of that being's legs.

He then looked at that creature struggling on the ground and made a quick vertical motion, smashing his ax against the spider's head.

Crack!

The shell of that insect made several sounds before being crushed by Lothur's movement, revealing a gooey mass that almost made that young man vomit again at such a sight.

But as soon as he realized his enemy was dead, Lothur discovered that he had been poisoned. So, he hurried to take the potions he had bought before departing for this mission.

Glub! Glub! Glub!

He drank the contents of about three bottles of potions while he was already shaking, feeling the ill effects of the poison mixed from that spider and the bees from before.

'Damn, I'm losing my consciousness...' He broke into a cold sweat as he felt his body relaxing until the glow in his eyes disappeared, and he fell face down on the ground.

...

Meanwhile, a person wearing an all-black mask appeared in the vicinity of where the three bodies of Lothur's enemies were.

Watching the surroundings as she felt the wind making her long blonde hair curl, that woman felt something was wrong as she looked at the signs of battle in the surroundings.

'What happened here?'

...
