Chapter 73: Different Paths

⟪[[Discovered a 'Magical Beast Core' of a mutated beast]]⟫

⟪[[Due to your special physique 'Myriad Energy Devouring Physique,' you would be able to absorb the energy essence contained within this beast core and thus using it to increase your cultivation in the correlated type of energy of this beast core. In other words, the host can increase his magic energy cultivation by absorbing the magical energy contained within this magic beast core]]⟫

⟪[[Would the host like to activate his special physique, 'Myriad Energy Devouring Physique' to absorb the energy contained within this magical beast core]]⟫

Reading through this once more time, Randy deeply thought about his other choices.

Originally, for one to increase one's magical energy or mana, one will have to meditate using some magical cultivation methods or magical energy gathering techniques that were only provided by universities, military and or when one acquires it by themselves.

And the only way to acquire one's very own magical cultivation technique was through venturing into the rifts and entering the world behind them and those who take on this quest were called…

Seekers!

This was a profession that was similar to hunters in a sense that they entered dimensional portals to complete their tasks. 

But unlike the hunters who ventures into the predetermined dungeons in the gates, seekers on the other hand would have to venture into the rifts and into the world behind it without any way of knowing whether they would be killed upon their arrival or be lucky enough to even survive their first day in the other world.

The reason for this was because the other worlds were usually developed or more precisely their history in general were deeply rooted, meaning that their people and the magical beasts or other creatures in their world were more adept at using the type of power that their world was prevalent in. 

For example, even if someone in Randy's world were at the same level of strength as a native in the other world, when they fight against the native, they would find that they are weaker than them when it comes to experience or common sense.

And these factors could lead to the death of seekers who acts arrogant because they think that they are strong enough to roam free in the other world. 

There was also the matter of the natives of that world not accepting your existence, especially if you were found out by someone with a terrifying strength that you were a world traveler or an outsider that do not belong to their world.

There were instances where some people were hunted down by the natives of the other worlds, thinking that they were invaded who came to destroy their world or planet and or simply their country. 

Those that survived those encounters immediately gave up on being seekers and settled with being just a hunter. 

After all, hunters do make a lot of money, however they still needed to spend an exorbitant amount of money just to buy techniques to increase their combat prowess.

It was due to this that many tried to become seekers that can obtain their very own techniques simply by going to the other worlds and obtaining them through their journey or simply stealing them if one was daring enough.

And even though, one would still need to spend some money to acquire techniques in the other world, nevertheless, it would be cheaper than what one would have to spend in their world since the techniques are scarce, so the government and various organization sell them for more money.

In any case, while one could obtain cheaper techniques in the other worlds, one could not neglect the dangers that comes with it.

Because of this reason, being a seeker tend to be riskier than being a hunter who would mostly likely be aware of the rank of the dungeon that they would be tackling beforehand, thus they would be well prepared before entering the gates housing those dungeons.

At this moment, Randy was thinking about becoming a hunter since he had already obtained his official identification and rank when he went to the awakening center. 

In reality, becoming a hunter was something that Randy would have to do sooner or later after entering university. One of the activities mandated in the universities was registering for one's hunter license and participating in dungeon raids to improve one's skills and increase one's strength. 

However, being a seeker was something that was generally not allowed in universities, but that does not mean that those that choose this route do not exist in the universities.

It was just that the universities do not want to lose outstanding individuals due to their reckless actions.

Although, if the student was not someone with noteworthy abilities to write home about, the university would turn a blind eye stating that those students were responsible for their owns lives and they were not obligated to interfere.

Due to that, only those that were so desperate to improve their abilities through acquiring techniques attempt using the rifts to traverse into other worlds. 

Also, the moment rifts appear on this side of the world, it would automatically connect both worlds, and it has been that way in the beginning of their first appearance, which then allowed all kinds of creatures to come through the portals and arrive to this side.

However, over time, the scientists and researchers of the rifts and gates found a way to seal or camouflage the rifts on the other side. 

In which case, people on this side could enter the other worlds, but the other worlds would not be aware of the rifts, unless someone strong ended finding out the traces of the rift and then forcefully opens it to venture to this side. 

During those times, there would either be a friendly and intelligent lifeform or a terrifying ferocious creature with insane power level enough to topple a whole city by itself. 

In the case of it being an intelligent lifeform, there was still the chance of them being hostile. 

For example, if a vampire were to traverse through the portal created by the rift to this side, they might not be friendly towards the weak humans on this side of the world and only see them as nothing but food that were easy to procure.

With things being like this, one could only imagine how chaotic things had been during the era where the humans had only just discovered how to use the various energies to power themselves up.
