Nolan walks behind, while Serena walks in front. (What, are you serious bro?).
Wait, Serena is in front because she's a hunter. So it doesn't mean Nolan is scared.
"By the way, Serena. How did you get those powers? And why did you hide them from me?" Nolan asked.
Nolan has been curious about Serena since the moment he fought the meteor.
"Sorry I never told you. I am your personal bodyguard sent by your father". Serena answered.
"I see. So my stern father secretly guards me and not an ordinary guard because he doesn't want me to know? What a tsundere father. Hmm hmm". Nolan nodded happily.
"Actually, I never kept it a secret. It's just that you never asked and realized it". Serena said.
"...."
Nolan looked at Serena.
'Enough. Stupidlan(stupid Nolan) you are deported. New world new life. I am Nolan V.2, replace you. Goodbye, Nolan V.1. May you be reincarnated in an equally stupid zombie world.'
...
"So how strong are you now, Serena?" Nolan bertanya.
"Hmm I don't know, I don't have any knowledge of the power in this world. But if I adjust the power of the Entropia world, I will win against random bandits with my technique".
"At least, our strength is almost the same, we need to train and buy some medicine to speed up our strength". Nolan argued. "And I need to learn my new powers".
"That's why we need more money".
"You're right, let's split up. We'll meet here in 30 minutes.". Nolan said.
Serena nodded.
Nolan go to the north and Serena to the east.

'So where should I go? I need a broader vision'. Nolan saw the tallest tree and climbed to the top.
He looked around and found a river some distance away. But as he was about to go down, he saw smoke from a very far place.
"What's that smoke? Do I need to see it? Maybe the monster Floryn talked about in the guild? But if I go there I probably won't be able to beat him either . Or maybe I can beat him but with consequences".
'Well, I don't know the strength of the monster, I'll think again when I'm near'.
Nolan ran towards the smoke. It took him a few minutes to get there because it was so far away.
...
Upon arrival, Nolan saw several Horse-drawn carriage broken. Several soldiers were scattered on the ground and Nolan saw a group of soldiers blocking a very cool looking monster and want to tame it with poke-..monsterball.
'Enough with your Neophile pokemon syndrome, Nolan. It's time to get serious.'
The monster has the characteristics of a large black warrior with a head guard and a large sword. He is the dark knight. Of course not Batman.
Turning his gaze, Nolan stepped forward and asked someone.
"What happened?"
"Finally there are reinforcements. We met a monster. It was very strong. In just a few minutes we were almost destroyed. Adventurer, where is your party? We must defeat that monster." The merchant said.
"I parted ways with my party. I came here alone." Nolan said.
"This is the end of us". The merchant retreated in fear. The soldiers were still preventing the monster from approaching.
Nolan saw and took the initiative.
"I will keep him away from you guys, at that time you guys, go away and leave unnecessary things behind". Nolan gives instructions.
"...." Monsters who heard that.
(Guys, please don't say your strategy out loud to the enemy)
"Is that possible? He's a very strong monster. Even if you can pull him, you won't survive". Said The merchant.
"Don't worry. Hurry up, I will hold it and go". Nolan steps forward.
Nolan spun around to the monster and punched it in the side. The Dark Knight blocked his blow with his sword.
'Damn, he's hard to attack, I need to distract him from the others'.
So Nolan stepped forward and continued hitting him with the technique he had learned.
Nolan continued to exchange blows with pinpoint precision. He moved forward to punch a few times, backed away, circled him and struck again.
But the Dark Knight parried it and only a few attacks got through.
Nolan felt this was a waste of energy and backed off. He unleashed his power. With his previous world experience, Nolan has the invisible aura of a top swordsman.
Everyone felt the change in atmosphere and look in the direction the pressure is coming from.
Nolan, who was ready, shot towards the Dark Knight.
Everyone anticipated that the monster would be torn to pieces.
"Serious Punch Move". Nolan said.
But the punch was not as expected. The blow that should have been devastating only touched the sword of the dark knight without power. Nolan, the merchant, the guard were all confused. Even the monster who was ready to lose was stunned.
'Oops, I forgot I reincarnated. Hehe'. Nolan said to himself.
"...."
"...."
"...."
"Ahem I thought my body wasn't ready. Okay now it's time". Nolan said. So now Nolan is pulling out a real move.
But many remain silent.
"...."
"...."
"...."
"Osiris sword style without sword..."
"...."
"...."
The others were still skeptical and expressionless.
"Chapter four..."
"...."
"...."
"verse 9..." At this moment the light shone on his hands.
"Ohhhhhhhh....." Finally everyone's eyes lit up and they screamed. Even the monster's eyes lit up too.
"Death stab." Nolan shouted.
The Dark Knight readied his sword to counter Nolan's move.
Nolan moved forward quickly. The Dark Knight moved forward as well and they both collided.
The air wave swept everything away.
Not long after, the Dark Knight took a few steps back, but Nolan was thrown far and hit a tree.
The air pressure blew away the surroundings from the result of their collision.
The Dark Knight considers Nolan dangerous and will kill Nolan first.
Nolan saw the monster just looking at him.
Nolan feels that his strategy to lure the monster has worked. "So now take the monster away and be done with it".
The Dark Knight heads towards Nolan and attacks. Nolan swiftly dodged and runs into the forest, trying to keep him away from the caravan.
But the Dark Knight didn't follow him and turned towards the unprepared guard.
(Well, I told you already)
The guard was unprepared, and did not have enough time to block it.
(I don't know why I hate stupid npc who just watch MC fight without doing anything)
Nolan who saw that, in a split second make a decision and turn around.
'Damn, I need a lot of compensation for this.'
Nolan will use a forbidden technique that will make power increase but will be taxing on his body.
"Open gate, Berserk" Nolan said quietly.
Less than a few meters away, The monster approached the guard.
Suddenly a pressure came over everyone, and the Dark Knight that was about to attack the guard turned around. But before he knew it, he was thrown and hit a rock.
Nolan wasted no time. He ran quickly towards the monster.
The Dark Knight felt that this time the enemy really serious.
"Serious punch move". Nolan stepped forward and punch the monster.
The dark knight stands and preparing his sword, tried to defend with his sword.
The Dark Knight seemed to have pretty good sword skills, but.
*(Claaanngg)
"My power is even greater, Orraaaaaaa"
Due to the incredible power, the Dark Knight was unable to withstand it, the weapon the monster was carrying was thrown far away and Nolan's attack hits the Dark Knight squarely.
Nolan, who felt that the Dark Knight had lost, immediately released his power and fall.
[Congratulations, player. You have unlocked the ability]
Nolan who saw that was confused because there was a pop up that looked like one in the game.
'Finallyyyy, my cheat us coming. Mwehehehehe'.
But before that, "Help me. I'm dying".
Everyone saw Nolan laughing like a perverted criminal and then like a victim of abuse.
"...."
