Chapter 43 - Devourer: How Could I Know…


Last bonus chapter for this month as thanks to silverness‘ ko-fis~



The fifth-grade fire-type ferocious beast, Blazing Black Turtle had been apprehensive and cautious as of late. It had already evolved into a fifth-grade ferocious beast. Thus, it stood to reason that it didn’t belong at the bottom of the food chain even in Bois Canyon which was swarmed with ferocious beasts. It could even oppress a group of ferocious beasts. In the small region, it could act despotically against others.


However, everything changed after the two devils arrived.


To be more accurate, they did not belong to the Devil race which had long since disappeared into the dust of history. However, their brutality was absolutely at the same grade as the Devils.


In a short span of two years, many of its fellows and friends had died. Moreover, the higher their grades were, the quicker they died. On the other hand, the inferior low-grade ferocious beasts that were around first-grade to fourth-grade lived a leisurely and tranquil life.


Blazing Black Turtle wanted to cry. Ying ying ying. If I knew that such a calamity would happen, why would I want to evolve into fifth-grade? Well-behavedly staying in fourth-grade would be safer.


I made my life worse for no reason.


It had been hiding inside a cave for the past seven or eight days. It could still tolerate not eating, but it was impossible for it not to drink. It had reached its limit thus it needed to go out and find something to drink.


The Blazing Black Turtle still had a mighty and domineering figure. The black turtle had a huge body and its shell was covered with raging flames. It walked in a slow but imposing manner but at this moment, the Blazing Black Turtle thought, How I wish I am an inconspicuous chameleon. Then I would be able to escape those two devils by hiding in the grass, innit?!


Blazing Black Turtle sighed in despair as it cautiously walked towards the nearest pool of water.


It walked slowly. Just as it was about to reach the pool, it abruptly stopped. Wu wu wu, why am I so unlucky?!


Standing next to the pool, aren’t they the two devils?!


Wait. The Blazing Black Turtle perceptively determined that they were not lying in ambush for a certain turtle. Instead, they were fighting against the pool’s Golden Tiger Shark.


The Golden Tiger Shark was a seventh-grade ferocious beast. It had a huge body that was six metres long. Its body had the same colour as that of a gold coin, like a moving sun. It was a metal-type ferocious beast. Its defensive power was top-notch and its attack damage was even more unusually ferocious.


At the current level of the Blazing Black Turtle, it could only wait for its demise if it encountered it.


But at this moment, such an unruly and domineering seventh-grade ferocious beast was actually being thoroughly suppressed.


The Blazing Black Turtle stealthily peeked and saw the silver-haired little devil holding a dagger. His slender figure was only the size of the tiger shark’s teeth, but he moved like a streak of light. He flitted across the tiger shark’s body. After traversing from its head to its tail, the tiger shark fell to the ground with a thump.


The Blazing Black Turtle was unable to clearly see his attack.


Ying ying ying. Too… too scary!


A loud rumble was heard at this time. The Blazing Black Turtle watched in surprise as a Sabre-toothed Shark that was twice as large as the earlier tiger shark emerged from the pool.


It’s an eighth-grade ferocious beast!


Although it was only a grade above the tiger shark, starting from fifth-grade, a difference of one grade would bring about earth-shattering improvement. The strength of an eighth-grade ferocious beast was equivalent to ten seventh-grade ferocious beasts.


The Blazing Black Turtle thought that if he hadn’t been born having a stable lower body, he would have been trembling like a leaf by now.


Then, something happened that frightened it so much that it had almost wet itself.


The silver-haired little devil seemed to have been startled by the sabre-toothed shark. He stood frozen on top of the tiger shark and then a black light flashed. The black-haired big devil hugged the little devil with one hand while his other hand held an extremely common iron sword.


His iron sword slashed down. It seemed effortless but the released sword energy was explosively powerful, directly cutting the sabre-toothed shark into halves.


Blazing Black Turtle: Ying ying ying. Don’t cut it so easily as if you’re cutting cabbages, alright!


The two ferocious beasts lay on the ground and the pool resumed its tranquillity. The Blazing Black Turtle wanted to run, but he was born a slow runner. How could he inconspicuously flee? If I knew that I would die here today, I wouldn’t have starved myself for seven or eight days. How great would it be to die full!


Suo Fei had long seen the boisterous Blazing Black Turtle. To be honest, it hid its huge body behind the short bushes. Did this embarrassing thing think that he’s a little bird? If it wanted to hide, it still had to have some hiding skills to back it up, alright?!


Seeing Samael also looking at it, Suo Fei sighingly persuaded, “Let it go. It should be enough for the chowhound to eat these two that delivered themselves to our door.”


“Alright.” The sound was close to his ear.


After realising that he was still in Samael’s arms, Suo Fei immediately jumped down. He let out a fake cough before he sprang towards the carcasses of the ferocious beasts and began skinning.


Two years were not long for Elves and Demons. However, for Suo Fei and Samael who just came of age, their appearances had changed remarkably.


Suo Fei’s short hair had grown long. He initially wanted to cut it short, but Samael personally made him a hairclip. It was made from the skeleton of a tenth-grade ferocious beast. It was extremely tough and hard thus it wouldn’t easily break. The pure black clip was a stark contrast to his silver hair.


Since Samael personally made it and placed it on his hair, Suo Fei felt disinclined to brush off his kindness so he had to forgo the idea of ​​cutting his hair short.


However, he truly wasn’t good at fixing his hair thus Samael had to help him most of the time. For some reason he could not make out, he would be overcome by a strange kind of feeling every time he saw Samael’s slender hands fastening his silver hair with the black clip.


Then, he would inadvertently remember what Samael had whispered into his ears two years ago when he was having a dispute with Manzy, “Yes, I want you.”


Stop stop stop. Suo Fei quickly ceased his imagination that had been spiralling way out of control for the past two years.


Surely, he must have heard it wrong.


Compared to Suo Fei who was becoming increasingly feminine (Suo Fei: What do you mean feminine?!), Samael was becoming increasingly serene. He had lost the look of naivety and innocence of his youth and his appearance had become more stunning, incessantly enticing Suo Fei’s face-con tendencies to act up.


If his resistance to beauty was at LVL60 two years ago, then now he had already reached the maximum level LVL99!


They didn’t spend all their time for the past two years at Bois Canyon. They also went to Benesse City twice. Suo Fei gave Antonio some herbs that were unique to the Bois Canyon as thanks for diligently gathering beast blood. Then, he went to the Dwarven territory several times and gave some bones to Eugene’s family for them to practice forging.


In addition, Eugene had finally recovered a year ago and began the major project of activating the Asura Blade. He had shut himself behind closed doors for ten months to date and it was about time for him to come out.


Speaking of ability improvements, although Sofey was a pure-blood elf, his body’s magic affinity was oddly mediocre. Suo Fei could easily practice zeroth-grade handy magic spells but he simply was unable to cast magic spells that were seventh-grade or higher.


Although the zeroth-grade magic spells were easy to practice, their spellbooks were hard to find. When Antonio found out that Suo Fei was looking for these spell books, he paid more attention to them.


Thanks to him, Suo Fei was able to gather a lot of various spellbooks such as his commonly-used cleaning spell. It was extremely helpful during skinning as it made the whole process less bloody. There was also the sorting spell which made it easier for Suo Fei to arrange the fur materials. The appraisal skill, however, was considered the most useful skill. It was too convenient as it could appraise the grade of both ferocious beasts and materials. Then he could immediately beat them up, so fun!


In the past two years, he had dealt with more than two thousand ferocious beasts. All the beast meat had been eaten by the chowhound and all the bones had been given to Eugene. It was only the fur that he had attentively kept for himself. His thoughts were simple. If Samael were to be forced to go on a rampage in the future, he surely wouldn’t die with his more than two thousand furs!


Muahaha!


Of course, it didn’t occur to him that this brilliant idea would end up helping him a lot.


His magic affinity was mediocre, but his agility was higher than he had imagined. After skinning for so many times, his eyes had been trained to be extremely sharp. When combined with his appraisal skill, he could accurately determine the weak point of his opponent and send them to their deaths using a short dagger.


Of course, this dagger was not an ordinary dagger. Eugene had specially made it for him using the materials from the same ferocious beast that was used to make his hairclip. It had become tougher after Eugene’s refinement. Its efficiency at skinning was no less than the Asura Blade.


His magic power was lacking and his strength was insufficient, but he was able to create his unique attack technique just based on his keen eye, his rare appraisal skill and his top-notch agility.


Compared to his painstaking efforts, Samael was still the game developers’ biggest bug. The Demons were indeed a powerful race, but was it really possible to reach that extent?


When he first encountered Samael, he had been rendered powerless by the Frostflame Beast. That was even with the help of the Asura Blade.


But now… The Asura Blade was still deeply attached to Eugene and yet, he could take out an iron sword from nowhere and easily slice an eighth-grade ferocious beast in half.


Ultimate gong-kun is unmistakably the precious son!


After Suo Fei finished skinning, the little cub immediately pounced and started eating. Suo Fei stroked the pink interspatial bag. Vixanne’s memory orb was still inside it. He had not watched it as the orb would disappear after watching it once. The resurrection artifact required a medium and the memory orb was undoubtedly the best medium.


The Devourer who had starved for thousands of years had finally eaten to its fullest.


The ultimate form of the Devourer was not as huge as they had expected, but its body was extremely beautiful. It had a smooth figure and its golden fur sparkled under the sunlight. It was as shiny and beautiful as the reflections of the ocean.


The little cub’s round eyes were brimming with energy, its bearing was imposing, and its roars were deafening.


As a whole, it conformed to Suo Fei’s imagination of a divine beast.


Especially the Devourer’s huge pair of wings.


Suo Fei had learnt the beast language in the past two years, so he quickly urged it, “Come, try flying around!”


The little cub who had been holding back for many years was finally able to hold its head up high. It had a domineering appearance, but after hearing Suo Fei’s words, it somewhat revealed its inherent nature.


Oh my, ​​the wings of this divine beast has finally grown! I can finally travel across the horizon!


Fervently kneel down to me, foolish mortals. This divine beast can fly!


After its sweet reverie, the little cub stuck its chest out in the most impressive pose it could manage. It took a deep breath and slowly unfolded its wings. Its wings fluttered, covering the sky.


It was extremely beautiful.


However after flapping its wings lightly, the earth shattered and the heaven shuddered!


Before Suo Fei was a sight that he would never forget.


It was as if a dragon that had been sleeping for thousands of years woke up from its slumber and let out an earth-shaking and heaven-rattling roar.


Suo Fei had not experienced an earthquake before, but the scene in front of him seemed like it was the end of the world. The earth shook until it gradually collapsed. Innumerable colours filled the sky and finally converged into a singularity. Then, like the Big Bang that marked the birth of the universe, this singularity burst open.


The sky was forcibly split open from the peak down to the earth. The huge crack slowly grew bigger and inside it was a vortex of utter darkness.


Suo Fei had seen the images of black holes in space before, and the crack before his eyes gave him the same feeling. It seemed capable of swallowing everything in this world, filled with unknown terror.


Salvag’s treasury, which had been idle for thousands of years, was opened.


The tremor it brought was enough to shock the whole world of Yalance.


When the stunned Suo Fei finally recovered his senses, he bellowed at the divine beast in front of him, “Bro, what the hell is going on?! If you wanted to open it, you should have waited for us to get ready! The Asura Blade is still in the Dwarven territory!”


The mighty and domineering divine beast-kun had a stupid look on his face and its big eyes welled up with tears, “It was you who asked me to fly around. How could I know that the sky would split open with a flap of my wings? Wu wu wu…
