The moment he opened his eyes, Rito saw a huge white rabbit, 1.6 meters tall, with its mouth open, showing a row of sharp teeth.
"Sit down!"
*Slap!*
He shouted, and when he moved, his hand struck the head of the open-mouthed rabbit with a slap.
*Bang!*
The huge white head of the rabbit hit the grassy ground, sinking into it.
Using the strength of its hind legs, the rabbit leaped toward him with its mouth open.
From top to bottom, Rito's open hand clamped onto the rabbit's head like a claw and squeezed.
The rabbit screamed, and once again, its head was pushed against the ground, but this time with much more force.
Still holding the head of the huge white rabbit, he didn't care about the rabbit's thrashing and began to stand up, still gripping its head.
"You're really huge and look so delicious... It's a pity I can't slice you into pieces." He sighed.
The rabbit's cruel red eyes were fixed on his.
Its hind legs used their momentum to try to break free, but Rito's grip was tighter than a vice.
Rito looked around. After realizing this was a lone rabbit, he turned his attention back to it.
"Okay, I have no more business with you."
With his free hand, he punched the rabbit right in the neck.
In an instant, the huge white rabbit disintegrated into dust, and five red orbs fell, along with a purple orb.
Collecting the orbs, he found himself thinking: 'In theory, this dimension is mine now... So why can't I even eat the meat of these rabbits that look so tasty?'
He sighed softly.
A strong wind hit his face, and Rito narrowed his eyes slightly.
Taking a deep breath of the pure air, he felt good.
The air in this dimension was better than the air he breathed outside.
It was richer and more pleasant.
It was as if he had been breathing polluted air before, but then went to the countryside of a city surrounded by nature.
The disparity was striking.
Setting that aside for now, he tried to assess where he had ended up this time.
It still seemed to be the beginner area where the rabbits lived. However, he didn't seem to have been in this part of the map before.
To the south, there were tall trees, but not fruit-bearing ones.
They were trees with green, pine-like leaves.
'An area with obstacles is better for me to act.'
He still wanted to test his eyes.
Of course, he wasn't going to release the rabbit from before to conduct such a test.
Moving forward slowly, he looked at the sky.
It was strange not to see a single bird.
However, it was necessary to understand that this place wasn't Earth, but rather another dimension with a limited number of animals in each part of the map.
Rabbits, Green Wolves, Flaming Lions, Armored Dogs, and Rats. Those were the animals that inhabited this part of the map.
Suddenly, he noticed a green dot in the air, and his ocular ability was activated.
At the sound of gears, his vision began to improve, and when an eagle's cry echoed, he gained enhanced vision, able to see kilometers away.
'I knew it, it's a Green Wolf!'
"Huh...?"
Something strange began to happen.
His eyes started to hurt as he observed the Green Wolf from kilometers away.
It was as if thousands of squares were projected, and each point of the squares analyzed what it touched.
When it hit the Green Wolf, information flooded Rito's brain.
Although confused, he was strangely calm.
Gradually, his feet began to lift off the ground as a current of wind surrounded him.
Even after floating at least ten meters above the ground, as confused as he was, his mind remained serene.
His eyes, fixed in the direction of the Green Wolf, could detect a pattern, analyzing every detail, reading every piece of information, and replicating it like a copy.
He was noticed.
The Green Wolf began to fly toward him at great speed.
It was like a small green tornado flying in a straight line through the air.
When it reached 500 meters away, dozens of wind blades were created by the Green Wolf.
Rito still remained calm. He was in a strange state that made him feel as if everything was under control.
And then, each point of the squares analyzed the created wind blades, and he replicated them perfectly.
"Howl!"
When the Green Wolf howled, the wind blades shot out like wind scythes.
The entire process, even the energy circulation of the Green Wolf, did not go unnoticed by Rito.
With his left hand, he waved, and his own wind blades shot out like wind scythes.
*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!*
The wind blades collided in the air and canceled each other out.
The attack power was equivalent.
The Green Wolf approached even closer and created two more wind blades, but these were twice the size of the previous ones.
Rito did the same.
This caused the Green Wolf's expression to darken; its eyes became deadly as it howled, and the wind blades shot out at great speed while spinning in the air.
The cutting sound was menacing.
However, Rito didn't choose to fire in the same direction; instead, his blades passed by the attack and headed toward the Green Wolf while he himself ascended higher into the sky.
*Whoosh! Whoosh!*
The wind blades passed very close to his feet, and the wind blades he created missed their target.
'I've already used half my power…'
That wasn't all; his eyes began to hurt.
The amount of tension his nervous system was enduring constantly increased.
But even so, he managed to maintain this strange state while not losing his calm.
High above, he replicated the previous attack and created dozens of wind blades.
He fired them in various directions, surrounding the Green Wolf.
"Howl!"
As it howled, it created several wind blades and fired them toward each one created by Rito.
However, Rito had already anticipated this and created another dozen wind blades, firing them toward the Green Wolf.
*Boom! Boom! Boom...!*
The attacks that collided created explosions of wind.
Because of this, a miscalculation on his part didn't foresee that this would cause his attacks to change direction, but perhaps Lady Luck was on his side, because the Green Wolf ascended into the air and was hit by one of the wind blades on its left shoulder, causing a deep wound.
The Green Wolf let out the sound of an injured dog and growled fiercely.
This time, it created more than a dozen wind blades.
Rito's calm eyes, with patterns of glowing red stars, shone intensely as they analyzed.
However, the stress this caused made blood start to drip from his eyes.
The pain was intense; for a moment, he considered deactivating this ocular ability, but he took a deep breath and endured the pain.
With just over 20% of his power remaining, he intended to finish this.
Flying upward, he perfectly saw the wind blades being fired in his direction and managed to dodge them all, but this stressed his eyes even further.
However, at nearly 200 meters of height difference, for the first time since activating these eyes, he smiled.
It was a simple but confident smile.
Using almost all the power he had left, he created two dozen wind blades.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...!*
When fired, they spun in the air, and with gravitational force, the shots gained strength.
The sounds in the air were worse than the sound of a gale.
The violent sound of cutting wind made him imagine the sound of glass windows rattling nonstop.
Meanwhile, the Green Wolf began dodging the first wind blades, but after dodging nearly a dozen, it was hit, and its movements became slower, soon followed by more and more cuts.
In an instant, several bloody red marks became visible on the massive 1.6-meter body of the Green Wolf.
Letting out one final howl, right in the middle of its cry, the Green Wolf turned gray and crumbled into dust.
In the air, Rito saw the orbs glowing amidst the ashes and darted toward them.
With his left hand, he grabbed four intensely glowing red orbs, two purple orbs, and one crystal orb with a faint green light.
After that, he landed on the ground.
When he deactivated the ability, the blood flowing from his eyes increased.
Only 1% of his magical power remained.
Something began to rise in his throat, and he vomited.
"Bleeeh!"
It was blood, a lot of blood.
"It hurts…"
He brought one hand to his chest and clutched it.
The blood from his eyes didn't stop flowing, to the point that his vision turned red.
Suddenly, he collapsed onto the ground, without strength.
His body began to convulse.
