Chapter 24: Killing Richard, The Person Behind the Scenes
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At that moment, Richard had successfully completed the blood contract.
Richard had already taken over the body of the Legend-rank beast.
He had abandoned his own body and his soul had entered the body of a ferocious beast, thereby turning from a human into a ferocious beast!
“So what if the spirit beast is powerful? It’s not as comfortable as controlling it myself.”
Richard, who had transformed into a beast, scanned the crowd with his scarlet eyes.
Then, he took out a few white fruits from his body.
It was none other than the Wind Spirit Fruit.
Then, Richard swallowed them.
.
Immediately, a mysterious power appeared and coiled around the beast’s body.
At the same time, his aura became more and more powerful.
Seeing this scene, Rex’s eyes narrowed.
“Giles, we can’t let him break through.”
Then, Rex ordered his Epic-rank spirit beast, Fiery Bird, to attack.
Fiery flames erupted from the Fiery Bird’s mouth as it hurtled towards Richard.
However, the flames were completely ineffective. Richard was unharmed.
“Stop struggling. It’s useless.”
“Be obedient and accept your death!”
The beast opened its mouth wide and laughed like a human.
“I really have to thank Bart. If not for him, I wouldn’t have gotten these precious Wind Spirit Fruits.”
“I originally needed some time to advance to the Legend rank, but now, I’m on the verge of an advancement.”
Rex immediately understood.
His eyes were wide with rage as he glared at the terrifying beast.
“So you killed Bart because of the Wind Spirit Fruit?”
“You’re such a b*stard!”
When Giles saw this, he understood what had happened.
However, they were already mortal enemies, so there was nothing left to say.
“Richard, so you haven’t reached the Legend rank yet?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe beast turned its scarlet eyes on Giles.
“You brat, you’ve caused me to suffer so miserably before.”
“I’ll kill you now to vent my anger!”
Before he even finished his sentence, Richard stretched out his arms, ready to kill Giles.
However, he suddenly felt like his body was out of control.
Immediately after, an immense pain shot through his mind.
“What’s going on? Did the Blood Contract fail?”
Richard could feel that something was wrong with his body and his eyes filled with horror.
Giles smiled.
“I’m sorry, Richard. Your hopes may be dashed.”
Beside him, black flames slowly burned on the Three-Headed Hellhound.
The Soul Poison had already been activated.
Souls below the Legend-rank could not withstand it.
Although Richard had taken over the body of the beast, his soul had also been corroded by the Soul Poison.
With his strength as an Epic-rank Beast Tamer, he would not be able to withstand the power of the Soul Poison.
“D*mn it! Was it you playing tricks, Giles?”
At that moment, Richard was feeling an immense pain in his head, and his massive arms were pummeling his head in an attempt to alleviate the pain.
At the same time, his expression was one of pain and his eyes were full of venom as he stared hard at Giles.
Giles looked at him quietly.
Just in case, he summoned the Little Beetle.
“Little beetle, use your Super Atomic Ray.”
Instantly, energy began to gather on the Little Beetle’s horn.
A moment later…
A scorching ray of light as thick as a human head shot out towards Richard.
Then, Richard’s terrified gaze fell on him.
Rumble!
A loud sound was heard. Magma gushed out and the entire cave shook.
Rex and Alina were dumbfounded.
Even though Rex had been mentally prepared, he still gasped.
It was unbelievable that the attack of a Silver-rank spirit beast could contend against an Epic-rank spirit beast.
In contrast, Alina was slightly better as she had already gotten used to it.
After a while, the dust caused by the explosion dissipated, revealing the scene inside.
The beast’s chest had been pierced by the light, and its eyes had lost their luster. It lay motionless in the lava pool.
Seeing this scene, Giles carefully sensed around and realized that the presence that belonged to Richard was gone.
This meant that Richard was dead.
Giles heaved a long sigh.
After all, it was a ferocious beast that was about to break through to the Legend rank. Needless to say, he had to deal with it cautiously.
When he first saw Richard, Giles had already told the Three-headed Hellhound to attack.
Strike first and gain the upper hand. Strike second and suffer.
This is not a competition.
Rex, on the other hand, burst into tears.
His enemy is dead.
Although he didn’t kill him personally, he did avenge Bart.
He went over to Giles and gave him a deep bow.
“Giles, thank you for helping me take revenge.”
Giles quickly helped the elderly man up.
“Mr Rex, you don’t have to do this.”
Then, he turned to Alina and said, “Quickly look around and see if there is the spirit herb that you need here.”
Rex also reacted upon hearing this.
As the initiator of this operation, he naturally knew the purpose of Alina’s trip.
“That type of spirit herb usually grows in the lair of ferocious beasts. There should be some here.”
Then, he brought Alina around to search for it.
On the other hand, Giles glanced at them. Then, he pensively looked at the carcass of the beast in the lava pool.
He could sense some aura of life.
It seemed to be the aura of a ferocious beast.
With this in mind, Giles frowned.
Then, he summoned the Swan Beast and brought out the corpse of the ferocious beast.
Giles stood next to the beast’s body and quietly studied it.
The entire body of the ferocious beast was made of hard rocks. It was over two meters long and its body was similar to that of a human. Even though it was already dead, it still had some remnant mightiness that was unique to ferocious beasts.
Giles did not dare to imagine how terrifying this beast would be if it broke through to the Legend rank.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut where is this peculiar aura of life coming from?
Giles frowned. He was pretty sure that his senses were right.
At that moment, the ferocious beast on the ground began to change.
It shrunk into a stone the size of a human head in an instant, and its life force also increased in a split second.
Upon seeing this scene, Giles’ eyes narrowed.
Just as Giles was confused, Rex and Alina came over.
Alina’s expression hadn’t changed much, but Giles could clearly sense her disappointment.
As expected.
“We didn’t find that spirit herb,” Rex shook his head as he told Giles.
When Giles heard this, he didn’t know what to say.
Hope turning into despair. Only those who had experienced it could understand it.
Alina forced herself to smile at Giles.
“It’s fine, I’ve already gotten over it.”
Upon hearing this, Giles fell silent.
At that moment, Rex saw the stone on the ground that had been formed from the ferocious beast.
“Giles, what is this?”
Upon hearing this, Giles recounted what had happened.
Rex studied the stone in amazement.
“Could it be that the ferocious beast returned to its infancy stage and is growing up from scratch?”
“Just deal with it as you see fit, Giles.”
Rex glanced at Giles.
This stone was very likely a ferocious beast that was starting out again from the beginning. If it matured in the future, it would definitely become an Epic-rank ferocious beast or even break through to become a Legend-rank ferocious beast.
However, Rex didn’t fight Giles for it.
After all, without Giles, he might have lost his life here, let alone taking revenge.
Giles did not stand on ceremony and put the “stone” away.
Naturally, he would not reject a ferocious beast that could possibly grow to the Legend rank.
Then, after confirming that they didn’t miss anything, the three of them left this place and started on their return journey.
A few hours after they left, a few people in blood-red robes arrived at the cave.
They saw traces of battle in the cave.
After a thorough search, they found Richard’s body in the lava pool.
“I can’t believe that good-for-nothing Richard was killed.”
“Our target seems to have been taken away.”
“Find that person and kill him!”
