Chapter 612 - Taking Over Gigante Forest - Part 3

Rogin nodded his head and turned around, heading toward the main camp. "Please follow me, Great Lord."

Tang Shaoyang followed Rogin toward the main camp. As he followed Rogin, he looked to the side, looking toward his left shoulder. "Where were you going just now, Greed?" He was curious where the little guy went to during the battle. He did not notice where the little cat went as he focused on the Serpent Sky Serpent.

Greed did not respond to him as the little guy was snoring. Yes, the little cat was sleeping on his shoulder. He furrowed his brow and muttered in a low voice. "Don't tell me he's sleeping…"

Tang Shaoyang opened Greed's window status. The screen would tell him if the cat was lazing around or hunting, and he could see it from Greed's level…

——————————

Name: Greed

Race: Beast - Dark Predator

Affiliation: Tang Empire - Tang Shaoyang's Companion

Evolution: Stage-9 Beast

Level: 756

Skill: [Natural Invisible] [Mana Manipulation] [Shadow Ruler] [Night Vision] [Shadow Split] [Shadow Illusion]

——————————

Tang Shaoyang immediately looked for Greed's level and was surprised that the cat's level had increased. Last time, Greed was still level 590ish, which meant the cat's level increased around 150 levels. Not that amazing, but it was great, considering the little cat gained that many levels within less than two weeks.

"He has his own to fight as well." He remembered what Ashley told him about the Dark Predator. The Dark Predator was supposed to be gigantic, but this guy remained in the same size even after passing the Adolescent Stage. 'But there's something weird with this guy, and how can he evolve so fast?'

Greed did not have [Spirit Sacrifice] and [Slayer Absorption] like him, and the little guy was for sure not hunting the monster that several ranks above him, so how? He felt Greed was hiding something from him, but the screen did not show anything about any hidden skill.

"We have arrived, My Lord." Rogin stopped before a wooden house. It seemed Aki and Ashley managed to conquer yet another established tribe. The Troll Warlord was about to knock on the door, but Tang Shaoyang directly opened the door and entered the house.

Aki was sitting at the round table with his grandson, Nol. They had a conservation with a light mood. He saw a smile on Nol's face until the little rat saw him. That smile instantly vanished as he jumped off the seat and hid behind his Grandfather.

Aki immediately stood and put his right hand on his left chest before bowing toward Tang Shaoyang. "This lowly servant greets, Great Lord."

Despite trying to be calm, Aki could not hide his shock from his voice. He was shocked that his Lord was so fast to reunite with them. His Lord went to the Guardian Beast's lair to ambush the Dark Tribe and the Guardian Beast. He thought it would take Lord Tang Shaoyang three days until they reunited again. But it was not even an entire cycle of a day, yet he met with his Lord again.

'Did he fail to ambush them?' That was the most likely possible explanation why Lord Tang Shaoyang was here, and he could not think of any other reasons for his Lord's sudden appearance. 'The Kirin is an existence that has been existed in the Gigante Forest a long time ago. There's no way for his Lord who just entered the Epic Rank can defeat him this fast.'

Tang Shaoyang waved his hand at Rogin and dismissed him. "You can return to your spot… No, inform Ashley and Selena that I am here." After saying that, he muttered in a low voice. "They will complain non-stop in my ears if I don't tell them…"

Rogin nodded his head and left the house, leaving Aki and Tang Shaoyang. Nol seemed to want to go as well. But the little rat was too afraid to leave, so he stayed behind his grandpa.

"Tell me your progress. How long until we reach the Beast Coven's territory?" Tang Shaoyang then looked toward the rat beastmen and asked. At the same time, he was thinking about something else.

He was thinking of splitting his force since Zara could fight equally against the Legend Rank Beast feared by the tribes in the forest. He could ask her to lead another force to fight the Moonlight Tribe or seek Elven's territory. If he had these four tribes under his command, Gigante Forest was his. 'I have enough mana as well to maintain all High-Rank Spirits.'

Aki started his report about their battle. Thanks to the septuplets Warlords and the Infernal Wyvern, the group managed to subdue another seven tribes along the way toward the Coven Tribe. There was no casualty too on their side as their force increased to 3480 armies now.

"We are not far from the Beast Coven's territory. If we continue with our current speed, we will arrive at the Beast Territory in two days since we have to fight many tribes before we can reach the Beast Coven's territory." That was the end of Aki's report.

"That means we are close to the Beast Coven's territory." Tang Shaoyang nodded his head. 'Should I summon the Spirits to clear out the tribes in our path? That way, we can reach the Beast Coven's Territory sooner. But wait, should I go with them? Wouldn't it be better for me to go alone?'

'No, using spirit armies is a no. I need my force to get stronger, and I need them to fight with those tribes.' Tang Shaoyang threw away the notion to use his spirit armies. 'Nah, I have to let them watch my fight to gain their loyalty. I need to show them that they are following the right person.'

At this moment, the door opened as Ashley and Selena entered the house. Both girls were running toward him and hugged him. Greed was pushed back and fell off his shoulder as Wrath flew away from Tang Shaoyang's shoulder, avoiding the disaster in time. The two girls were genuinely worried since Tang Shaoyang was fighting Legend Rank Beast alone.

"That's should be enough for now." Tang Shaoyang nodded toward Aki and stood up. He carried the two girls and whispered. "Where's our house?"

*** ***

The next morning, Tang Shaoyang woke up by the knock on his door. He could feel Aki's presence from behind the door. Selena and Ashley were sleeping on his chest, stark naked, and the knock did not even wake them up.

He pushed the two girls away slowly to not wake them up. Then he took out his clothes from inventory. After dressing up, he kissed the two girls' forehead and headed out of the house.

As soon as he opened the door, Aki was waiting for him with his head lowered. "You better have a good reason to wake me up this early." He looked at the sky, and the sun did not fully rise yet. This was still too early, and he would miss his morning exercise for sure.

Aki immediately bowed his head and apologized. "I apologize for disturbing your sleep, My Lord. This is not an emergency, but The Beast Coven sends an emissary to meet you."
