X-Rank Hunter

Chapter 141: Janine And Jim



As of now, Jim had just exchanged position to his Blood Minion. And what he was seeing right now made him notice the little girl who was carrying the beast.

The little girl was surrounded by many other beasts. And from time to time, the beasts would come at her to try their luck and give her a good beating. But sadly for them, all of them failed to even give the other party a scratch as they were sent flying instead.

Jim frowned. He saw clearly how did the little girl handle the situation with ease. Just who was this girl? That girl was really incomparably strong compared to just any random girl.

At that moment, however, Jim suddenly realized something. To have such great strength, this little girl must have stumbled some fictitious encounter. She must have received some sort of blessings. And there was only one thing that came to Jim's mind, this girl must be one of the X-rank Hunters he was looking for!

Jim suddenly felt excited. To think that he would find one of the X-rank Hunters this way! Should he rush now towards the other party to test her strength? Jim's urge to fight her was just going stronger and stronger as he watched how did the other party single-handedly defeat all the beast around with ease.

Soon, the little girl finished off all the beasts in the area as she sent them all rolling on the ground with her fist. And shortly after that, the little girl, Janine Kastel's eyes and Jim's eyes met. Jim might have already recognized the identity of Janine, but Janine was the complete opposite of him. She didn't even think who Jim was, and she really didn't care too.

What only made her wonder was that this boy smelled good. But at the same time, she also smelled the malicious intent of this boy towards the little creature she carried.

Janine knew as well that this boy wasn't ordinary. Just by seeing the other party appearing and disappearing so suddenly could really make her on guard against the other party. She just didn't expect that besides her, there was actually another kid in the world who might be as strong as her. This really was interesting. Janine could even feel her heart beating in excitement. She really wanted to fight the other party now. But with the little creature with her, and with the other party intending to harm it, she couldn't be so careless.

If Janine was all alone, she might probably have rushed towards the other party without putting any care into anything at all. She might have beaten up the other party now. But since protecting the little creature she carried in her hand was of utmost importance, Janine put away all her carelessness and became careful for the first time in a long time.

Both of them, Janine and Jim, stared at each other for a good while to have a grasp of each other. No one uttered a word as well. Knowing each other's intention, and strength perhaps, they waited who would likely make a move first.

The little creature, on the other hand, tilted its little head as it shifted its gaze to both Janine and Jim from time to time. But seeing the silence around, and felt being impatient, the little creature released itself from Janine's hand as it floated just in front of her.

Janine was surprised at first, but she didn't do anything to stop the little creature on whatever it wanted to do. After a moment of staring at Janine, the little creature turned around and flew towards Jim.

"Wait! It's dangerous there!" Janine was startled. How could this little cat be so careless?!

But before Janine could say any more words or do any other action to stop the little creature, she saw it already reached its distance towards Jim and was already hugging Jim's chest in joy. As if it just met its long-awaited knight in shining armor.

Janine felt her dead heart bled. Her whole world crumbled. Her first love was stolen just like that?! How could it be?! Janine gritted her teeth. Her hands were clenched into a fist to the point that her fingernails were tearing her flesh.

On the other hand, Jim was suddenly surprised by the action of this little beast hugging him before a smile formed on his lips. He patted the little head of the beast hugging him as he heaved a sigh of relief knowing that he didn't need to do an action such as absorbing the blood of this beast dry in order to tame it. That was really a huge save of effort and time considering that he knew that he needed to fight the little girl just to get this beast and make it his tamed beasts.

Jim was just about to give his blood towards the little beast when he suddenly felt a dangerous aura exuding out around him. What was going on? Even the little beast was alarmed.

"You've stolen my lover! You don't deserve to live!"

Jim was still trying to figure out what was going on when he suddenly heard such a cold voice. At that moment, Jim immediately realized who said those words. It was the little girl! The one who he suspected as one of the X-rank Hunters!

This girl had gone mad! Jim could feel it! Just what kind of country bumpkin was she?! Her behavior was way too similar to that of a barbarian!

And what lover was she talking about? How could she call a mere beast her lover? Did she thirst for love? What a pity.

Jim shook his head. From the looks of it, it appeared that this girl's power was probably related to physical strength. A knuckle-headed girl? That was something Jim had never expect for an X-rank Hunter.

So then, before the girl could even do anything against him, Jim suddenly disappeared only to be replaced by a red sparrow. He planned to take away the little beast first before fighting this brute.

"You!!!" Janine who had seen Jim suddenly disappearing again without leaving any traces suddenly felt enraged. The ground before her trembled as she stumped her feet on the ground and a crater was formed right away. At that moment, she really had gone into insanity. How could she not if her first love was just taken away from her right under her watch. This really was infuriating! That brat must die right here right now!

So to vent her anger, Janine chased the little red sparrow of which she still smelled the stink of the person who tried to take away her little creature. The Blood Minion of Jim, on the other hand, tried to fly away in its hardest only to end up being caught by Janine. It frenziedly tried to struggle free from Janine's hand only to end up being chewed to death by the other party not long after it was caught.

Meanwhile, Jim who was now several kilometers away from Janine was just about to give a drop of his blood to the little beast for him to try taming it when suddenly, he lost connection with his Blood Minion that he left to mark the location and watch over the girl he met before. What happened? This was the second time that something like this, his Blood Minion being killed, happened to him. The first time was when he ran away from the Semi-demon woman (Kristina) who caught his Blood Minion off guard while his consciousness was still there. Considering the strength of that woman from before, Jim could still accept the death of his Blood Minion.

But now? The Blood Minion he left to watch over the girl he met before had just died? Just what kind of special means did that girl do to kill his Blood Minion? It had to be known that his Blood Minion could continue living even after being smashed into a meat paste. So how could it die now?

If Jim would just learn that his Blood Minion died a horrible death of being eaten, just how in the world would he react?

At that moment, however, Jim realized the strength of this X-rank Hunter he had just met. It really was interesting! And it only made his eagerness to fight the other party grew stronger.

With that being said, Jim waved his hand and a couple of droplets of blood appeared in the midair. Soon after that, the droplets of blood morphed into sparrows as they all spread right away to obey their master's command. They were just planning to search for the whereabouts of the little girl that their master had just met a little while ago.

No matter what, since they had already met, Jim should at least try to fight this little girl. He might as well bring out his full potential or perhaps, he might overcome his limits if he fought this kind of opponent. Jim was just hoping that the other party wouldn't disappoint him and would display a good match.
