The soldiers grimaced. They wanted to act tough too, but they were not up to it! Lance was highly valued because of his ability, but he was not given a high position because of his frankness and inability to conceal his emotions. On the contrary, Fernand Larson was not that capable, but with a bit of skill and flattery, he did quite well for himself. Lance had always disliked Fernand, so they were always at odds with each other in court to the point of fighting, which made the emperor unhappy. Lance was sent to deal with the beasts because of Fernand’s repeated instigation. “Everyone knows that this mission is highly dangerous. Out of so many commanders, they just had to send me!” Lance grumbled. Although he would take the initiative to wipe out the beasts under normal circumstances, it felt different when he was pushed to the frontline. As they moved forward, a beast dozens of meters high suddenly appeared before them. The towering trees around them were ripped apart a
Lance cursed aloud, but no one replied to him. They had no idea what was going on. “Damn it, I saw it! It's that dude over there!” a soldier cursed in anger, wishing he could give that stranger a beating. The wooden stick was thrown by Aslan. They saw the situation and wanted to help, but Philip changed his mind at the last minute and decided to get rid of the beast. In his opinion, it should be an easy task. Aslan was amused by the cursing soldiers. “Oops, I’m sorry. I didn’t think this would happen. I wanted to help you, but my attack missed!” Aslan said awkwardly and seemed apologetic. Lance was furious and at a loss for what to say. “Ignore him. Let’s go!” Lance was worried that the beast would chase after them. The beast was simply messing around in the forest without going out to cause destruction. After this incident, however, it might chase after them and kill them all. As they got ready to run, the beast swung its tail and sent everyone flying. They lay on th
Maybe this guy could really take down this beast. Everything was possible before the outcome was finalized. At this time, many people were sent flying, looking very miserable. Philip felt sorry for them. After all, they were injured because of them, so Philip signaled Aslan. Aslan nodded and understood Philip’s meaning. “These pills can heal your injuries. Remember, although they're good stuff, don’t be greedy. Take them as our compensation and leave quickly. Stop wasting your time here.” Aslan was just teasing them earlier and had no other intentions. They seemed like nice people, so Aslan did not want to waste time with them. Lance felt that Aslan was humiliating him. “What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?” Lance knocked the pills from Aslan’s hand in a huff. “I don’t need your charity.” He did not care about Aslan’s gift. It would not be anything good. Aslan was surprised by Lance’s rejection. With a hook of his fingers, the pills returned to his hand.
Lance realized the severity of this matter and wanted to run away. At this moment, Philip signaled Aslan to attract the beast’s attention while he attacked its eyeballs. As long as the beast kept its eyes open, its weakness would be exposed. As a monster beast, Aslan’s aura could affect the beast. After sensing Aslan's presence, the lizard beast rushed at Aslan furiously. Philip seized this opportunity to attack the beast with multiple weapons that appeared in his hands. The beast was frightened by this scene and wanted to escape, but it was too late. Philip was one step ahead of it. No matter how the beast resisted, the dagger pierced its eyeball. The beast howled in pain. “Go to hell!” Philip attacked without hesitation, and waves of light pierced through the beast’s eyeballs into its brain. The growing beast was finally dead. Philip was so fast that Lance could hardly keep up even after everything was over. Lance was still running, making him look ridiculous. “He
“You turned down the pill he gave you earlier, so why are you asking now?” Philip smiled helplessly and put the beast into his storage space with a wave of his hand. Lance was dumbfounded by Philip’s actions and felt that his outlook on life had collapsed. “What the hell is this?” He wanted to get the answer from Philip, but Philip ignored him. “Now that we have taken care of the beast, let’s take a look inside. Maybe we can find the cause of the beast's mutation.” Philip reached into his space and took out a lizard’s leg. “You can take this as proof of completing your mission. I believe it'll be of great use to you. Your strength may improve by leaps and bounds if you eat it.” Philip smiled and led Aslan into the depths of the beast forest, leaving the soldiers behind staring at each other. Philip was not a saint. He had offered the pills once and would not do it again. If they wanted the healing pills, they had to buy them. His earlier offer was to compensate them
“Set the pot over the fire. Let’s have a feast with this leg today!” After much deliberation, Lance decided to keep the leg for themselves. He was tricked into being sent here to face the danger anyway. In that case, he would keep the good stuff to himself. “We’ll eat this today. We can express our gratitude when we see the two of them again in the future!” Lance was a grateful person. He knew that he was a little arrogant earlier and vowed to thank the other party if he had the opportunity next time. “As for what happened today, no one is allowed to talk about it. Just say that we killed the beast through our own efforts, and the beast’s body was scavenged by other animals. We don’t know anything else!” Before cooking, Lance reminded everyone, afraid that some of them might let the cat out of the bag. All of them had followed Lance for a long time and knew his meaning. “Don't worry, commander. We’ll watch our words. Those two people are our saviors.” Everyone looked at
Aslan went on high alert and peered around cautiously. “I’ll pick the flower and see what’s going on.” That flower was not a magical item that could be used as a medicinal ingredient. Philip found no description of this flower in his memory at all. Thus, he could not tell what it was. It felt like an extraterrestrial object, magical and weird. “Philip, watch out. I feel like this flower is talking to me. When I look at it, I see a charming woman dancing in front of me, and she keeps beckoning me over!” Aslan frowned and said solemnly. He had noticed the anomaly of this flower. Likewise, Philip discovered the same. Philip approached the flower cautiously and reached out to touch it. The flower trembled, looking a little spooky. He had a strange feeling that the flower was like a delicate woman resisting his touch. “Something’s wrong. Let’s pick it and see what happens!” Philip did not want to hesitate and miss this chance! He took out a shovel and dug out the flower by i
Philip was stunned to see such a beautiful woman. “Sir, please stop!” The flower that turned into a woman sobbed in despair. “If you don’t want to die, tell me everything about yourself,” Philip threatened. He did not have to worry about communicating with the other party, which was great news. “Who are you exactly?” Philip asked solemnly. He did not want to waste too much time on this thing. The woman looked up at Philip resentfully and recounted her story, “I come from a chaotic world. I had been practicing in that world for thousands of years before I finally developed my intelligence and body. But before I had time to get used to this body, I was sucked away by a strange force. “When I first came to this colorful world, I was very curious.” Her words were full of sincerity, and she did not seem like she was lying. Philip knew that she probably did not have any bad intentions. However, she did not understand how her actions affected this continent. Philip was
“It’ll take a long time for this little fox to become a human. I think you would've found your other half before that happened.” After exchanging some pleasantries, Philip bade farewell to the shopkeeper and left without further ado. They had to hurry up to find the person Adam was looking for.… Meanwhile, Luther hurried back home unhappily. He never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation one day. As soon as he returned home, a man greeted him. It was none other than his father, who doted on his son. “What's wrong?” He was surprised to see his son ignoring him. His son was always flashy and arrogant, so his behavior was quite unusual. Luther was in no mood to pay attention to his father. He returned to the room angrily without saying a word. “Guard, what’s going on? Did someone bully my son?” Luther's father, Klein, glared at the guard unhappily, blaming the guard for everything. The guard kneeled in fear and felt sorry for himself. “The young sir was brows
The shopkeeper was clearly relieved by Philip’s remark and direct approach. However, he was also embarrassed by Philip’s bluntness. He smiled at Philip awkwardly as an apology. “Why don’t you recommend a pet for my buddy? It should be a stronger one, preferably a combat type!” Philip glanced at Carlos. He knew that Carlos was too embarrassed to take the initiative. Carlos looked at Philip gratefully, letting out a shy chuckle. The shopkeeper recommended several pets to them. Carlos was dazzled by the sight and wanted them all. Adam looked at the scene with satisfaction. Although he had a high position, he did not have a decent pet either. It was difficult to have a pet in their world. With a wave of his hand, Philip generously bought a pet for each of them. At this time, Philip heard a whine from somewhere. He turned his head curiously and looked for the source of the sound. “What’s that noise?” Philip looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, unable to find the source of
Luther was at a loss for how to react. If the rabbit could speak, it had to be stronger than his pet. Although his pet was very powerful, it was just an ordinary creature that could understand some basic instructions and handle normal interactions. A talking pet was simply to die for. “Wow, how can that monster pet speak? It’s a force to be reckoned with.” Luther was shocked to see a talking pet. It was enviable to have such a powerful monster. Before this, he mocked the rabbit for not having any ability, but the tide had turned. He was almost going crazy with jealousy and wished that he could take the rabbit for himself. “I didn't bring my pet along, so I’m afraid I can’t show it to you. Losers like you don’t deserve to see my pet.” Luther acted full of snobbery and disdain, but he clutched his purse awkwardly. In fact, not only did he bring his pet out, but he had also been ready to show it off at any time. After all, his pet was very powerful and could grow bigger or sma
Philip was annoyed by the guy’s ridicule and simply wanted to keep a distance from him. “I don’t care who you are. I don’t want to pay attention to a loser.” After saying this, Philip could not wait to leave this disgusting place. He felt sick at the sight of the guy’s ugly face. Carlos lost the mood to watch the fun. He shook his head helplessly and turned around to leave. However, that guy was used to getting his way. He did not plan to let them leave in one piece. Anyone who offended him had to die. “Surround him. Don’t let him run away!” The man glared at Philip with disdain, sure that Philip would die. Philip was quickly surrounded by a large group of people. They were angry that Philip dared to go against their boss. “Who are you? Where did you come from? How dare you disobey our boss? Didn't he tell you to stop?” a guard yelled angrily. He was clearly a competent lackey, loudly accusing Philip as if he was going to stand up for his boss. “What are you looking at?
The street was very crowded with not only various pet monsters for sale but also a myriad of pills and techniques, which looked impressive. Philip was happy to see this. This place was clearly better than any other place he had visited before. It was very different from the other places he knew. “This is the place I’ve always wanted to visit.” Philip could not contain his excitement and wanted to bring all his friends and family over. “After finding your crush, I’ll bring all my people over and show them this place.” Rabbit was surprised to hear Philip’s high evaluation of this place. He simply felt that something was unusual about this place, but it was nothing too special. “Don’t miss this great bargain. Our pets are the best. You look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here? I can tell you some things and satisfy your curiosity. I’m sure my goods are nothing you've seen before.” Seeing that Philip and the others did not own a pet monster, the seller kept promoting his g
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
