My Dragon System

Chapter 150 - F class Tag

Candy and Tuffy stood still with their bodies shaken from the sight of the Mud Crab. The Crab was as big as a house and its body was completely covered in mud apart form it's two claws.

"What are you two still doing here!" Ray shouted. "Get out of here!"

The kids tried to move but their legs just wouldn't listen to them. The Crab then reached out its big claw and tried to snap the two kids' bodies in half.

When the Crab's pincers had already surrounded the kids, all it needed to do now was close its claws.

*Snap

Candy screamed while Tuffy held on tight to her.

"Do you two want to die!?" Ray said as his two hands were held up against the two pincers.

The Crab was using all its strength to try to close its claws on the man in front of it like he had done to all those before but for the first time, the Crab was powerless. The Crab looked into Ray's eyes and it could genuinely feel the power emitting from them, it was scared.

It knew it was looking into a being who was more powerful than itself. The Crab started to ease the pressure on its claws and started to walk backwards away from Ray.

"What is going on?" Tuffy asked.

"It looks almost scared; I've never seen that before." Candy said.

But Ray wasn't going to let the Grab go off that easy. Now that the Grab no longer had its claws on Ray, his hands were free. He placed both of them into the muddy water and then activated his skill "Ice bind."

The muddy water started to turn into a trail of Ice until it had eventually reached the grabs leg's that were hidden underwater. The front two of its legs were frozen. The ice wasn't powerful though because of the low points in Ray's ice attribute but he didn't need it to be.

Ray just needed the Crab to stay still for a single moment. Ray Gathered the strength in his gauntlets and punched it in the centre of its body. Suddenly, cracks formed across its whole body. The crab was badly hurt but it was indeed an advanced creature, one punch wouldn't be enough.

Ray continued to repeatedly punch the Crab each time damaging its hard shell more and more until eventually, a piece had broken and flew off. Finally, a notification screen had appeared.

Ray kissed at his teeth as he saw the notification screen pop up. Ray was hoping that the system wouldn't have given him a crystal for this one, as what he needed more than anything right now was a weapon. Ray still had the spear from Killer but Ray wasn't very skilled at using a spear.

He missed using a sword. Although the gauntlets were powerful, they had a problem with them. They were a brute force weapon and were blunt. If Ray had a high tier sword during the fight with the crab, he probably would have been able to deal with it a lot quicker slicing the Crab in half. Instead, he had to attack the Crab several times with his fist.

Tuffy immediately Ran up to Ray once the crab's body had fallen into the muddy water.

"Wow that was amazing, what rank are you? you must at least be an A-Class adventurer."

"A class?" Ray didn't know much about how guild's ranks worked, although they did teach this at school Ray would only pay attention to the things that interested in him.

Tuffy started to look all over Ray as if he was trying to find something.

"Huh, I don't see your tag anywhere?"

"Tag?" Ray replied

"You know this," Tuffy said as he pulled out a chain that was around his neck. At the end of the chain was a dog tag made of metal that was Red in colour.

"You see mine and Candy's are red, which means we're F class adventures."

"Oh yes, now I remember I lost it; I must get a new one when I can."

Ray was trying his best to cause no suspicion but then realised if he truly wanted to have this secret identity of an adventurer, he would have to learn about them. To make his story more believable it would be best if Ray joined a Guild under the adventurer's name Nes. But that would have to wait for now, while there were still things going on at Avrion.

Tuffy smiled and then paused before going over to the Mud Crab. Although it was dead and unmoving Tuffy still remembered that he and his sister had nearly died from it.

"Don't worry about getting the crystal form it, I already retrieved it during the fight," Ray said.

The three of them then started to head back out of the swamp area.

"So, what are you going to do now Nes?" Candy asked.

Ray now had a total of 25 Intermediate crystals he had obtained from the system and 22 intermediate crystals in his endless void. He was pretty sure that this amount would be enough for him and Noir to evolve. All he needed to do now was to find a quiet place.

"If you don't have anything to do you can come back to our town with us, you can get the reward money for destroying that Crab?"

Ray wasn't interested in getting a reward for defeating the crab. He was more interested in getting a room for the night where he could sleep and be alone.

Ray then asked the kids where this town was and it wasn't too far from where he was meant to meet the merchant the next day. It was getting late and the sun was starting to set, Beasts were a lot more active at night and Ray needed to be in an absolute safe spot when he was evolving. Last time he was unable to move from the pain and couldn't imagine if something tried to attack him.

"Okay, sounds like a good idea," Ray replied.
