Monster Integration (Web Novel)

"I think we have got away far enough," said tiger beastwomen as we stopped by the came in the small hill.

It seemed to be a planned spot, seeing how she had directly jumped into its hidden entrance. She took me inside. A second later, the hidden formations activated on its own, completing the isolation.

"Who are you, and why did you kidnap me?" I asked. "I did not kidnap you, dear human. It could be said I saved you from your kidnappers," she said with a smile.

I wanted to snort, but I control myself and just looked at her. She did not save me; I had just changed the captors.

"You must be really good, to help them get a key in less than three weeks," she said. Ignoring the look I am giving her. "It was not difficult. They had notes on the formations," I said, and she did not sound surprised.

"Even then. Getting a key in three weeks is shocking. Even our own runemaster couldn't achieve something like that," she praised, but I did not let it get over my head.

"They have the key. You wouldn't be able to get that thing, even if you have me," I said carefully. Instead of getting angry, hearing my words, she smiled.

"You don't have to worry about that," she replied with a confident smile.

I did not ask her any further questions and sat down on the rock. "It would be great if you can provide me with an account of what you had experienced in the palace," she said just when I was about to close my eyes.

I wordlessly took out a white memory crystal and imprinted it with the data of what I had experienced and threw it at her before closing my eyes.

'Wow. It seemed like you were not interested in hiding anything about your kidnappers,' she said. I heard it in the library and, after a moment of thought, I did not reply with a snarky comment.

Though she is right about the crystal. I had imprinted it with a detailed record, holding nothing back.

A little more than three hours passed when I sensed the movements and opened my eyes. Only to see the two tigers' beastmen entering inside. Though they did not look good, their state is haggard, with the injuries on their body, especially the tall one.

"Wow. She had really done a spell on you." She said with a hint of mocking, and, to my surprise, they took it with their head down.

"That bitch was more powerful than I had fought her last time," said the short tiger beastman, after a moment of silence.

"Maybe you should have stolen him, and I would have fought her," she said, pointing at me. There was no answer from them.

The two just sat down and begin recovering from their injuries, while the tiger beastwomen kept the watch.

It seemed like the tiger beastwomen is stronger than I had thought or more important than these two to be talking like that.

I looked at them for a minute before closing my eyes.

"Wake up, little human. It is time to go," said the tiger beastwomen after one and a half hours. I immediately opened my eyes and get up.

The two tiger beastmen seemed to have recovered. As the injuries on their body had disappeared and their aura is a lot stronger than before. All three of them walked out of the cave and I followed behind.

Once again, I felt her aura covering me and we begin to move at a blurring speed like before.

It is such a regret that with such a speed, I couldn't see a single resource, much less harvest them. I would have really liked to get as much as possible, as whether I remained captive or became free, those resources are going to help me a lot.

Hours passed, and we continued moving. Soon it was evening and even then; we did not stop.

Puch!

The shorter tiger beastman fired another arrow, and a second later, it pierced through the skill of what seemed like a monkey monster.

Killing it in an instant.

He had been killing any monster that came at us, and he killed every one of them in a single attack. Like Reta and her people, these people also do not care about the monster's bodies.

I do, but we are moving so fast that I couldn't collect them.

I want to curse at these bastards, but I remained quiet without saving anything, but every time, he kills a monster. I would try to get a body and that seemed to amuse them.

At the moment, the monster is killed, these people would increase their speed a further, before reducing it a few minutes later.

Finally, at midnight, we have stopped. We have appeared in front of the teleportation gate. Not the one I had used to travel to this region, but a different one.

"We are going to meet them sooner than we had thought. I hope all of them had gathered," said the short tiger beastman as he placed the token and selected the location.

"We will see," said the Tiger Beastwomen and picked my hand and I found myself stepping into the teleportation formation. For a moment, everything was blank before it cleared.

The first thing I felt was the dense water elemental energies. The banzar valley had green and earth elemental energies, but here water elemental energy is the densest.

60% of it all is the water's elemental energies.

It is still dark. Since the four main regions are connected, time in them is also the same.

So, it is midnight in this region too.

"Ah, the precious water elemental energy," said the tiger beastwomen and sucked a deep breath, taking a lot of water elemental energy inside her.

I couldn't help but feel a little surprised. I did not think she would be a water elemental practitioner. I guessed her to be earth or metal. These are the element, the members of her race usually aligned with.

"We should hurry and reach the meeting spot as soon as possible," said the tall tiger beastman.

The beastwomen opened her eyes a moment later, and I felt myself move.

A couple of seconds later, we moved out of the dense trees and what I saw couldn't help but surprised me. I saw lakes, vast lakes. Everywhere I look, I see the lakes.

Though, I know the clear lake region had lots of lakes, even so, the number and sizes had still surprised me.

Puch Puch puch

We moved through the lakes and ground, choosing the way that will take the destination faster. Like before, it is a short tiger beastman responsible for the monsters.

There are a lot of monsters that are attacking, three times more than in the banzar region. Especially when we are on the lakes.

These people are powerful, that they do not fear monsters. They are killing every monster, then getting in the way.

Over three hours passed, when something surprising happened. I was finally able to collect the monster. It was a fish monster with glittering amethyst scales.

All three of them looked at me but said nothing.
