At the border check post of LA grounds, a pair of students could be seen engaged in a fast-paced duel. They were both exceptionally skilled for their ages and ranks. But the one who was observing and guiding them didn’t seem too impressed. “Ken, this is the last time I’m warning you. Don’t pull your punches when you see an opening. Eren is more skilled than you when it comes to countering the attacks. He’ll be able to take your hits. And Eren, I think you’ve gotten very skilled in using…-

“Why did you betray us?” Arizihana Agnoth heard the question directed at her. She was at an underground facility and talking to a spectral image that was projected above an array eye. The question was asked by this spectral image that seemed to have a blurry and unrecognizable visual profile Ari was pissed by hearing the question directed at her. She gripped her sword’s hilt hard before replying: “Me betraying you? I should be the one asking the same question to you. You told me you would…

Marla had told her teammates that they’ll talk about the mission’s results after they left the city of Silvermoon. And it was now time to fulfil that promise: “So we finally found the cultist hideout, thanks to the clues given by Eren. but it seems we were too late. The place was already in ruins by the time we got there. And…” Marla took some time before replying: “And there was no cultist alive at the scene. We don’t know who, someone who might or might not belong to another…

“Did you find anything useful?” Marla asked her teammates the next day when they met up. She wasn’t expecting any result from her last recon either. But surprisingly Eren came forward before reporting: “Master Marla, I might have found something. I had discovered a presence last night with Agatha’s help so I followed it up as per your instructions. The chase lasted for about two hours before my cover was blown. I tried chasing that person but he just disappeared out of the blue. I can…

A scene of massacre unfolded in front of Agatha’s eyes. She saw mutilated bodies laid on the ground that were releasing a thick smell of blood. But she couldn’t see the pool of blood as the den was poorly lit. She could find solace in the fact that the cultists didn’t care about optimizing the visibility inside the den. And it wasn’t like she wasn’t involved in this massacre. Her hands and her clothes were painted in the cultists’ blood as well. She had to do her master’s bidding after…

“So? Where do we go from here?” Eren asked Agatha who had held the Beast Blood token in her hand. She would often close her eyes from time to time and tighten her grip around the token to confirm that she was going in the right direction. The direction was shown by the spectral arrow projected over the token. Eren’s small squad was out to comb the area for potential cultist activities. That was the official mission given to them anyway. But Eren used this opportunity to launch a sneak attack on…

“Reen, come out.” Eren was right. Agatha had nearly forgotten at that brief moment that she was now a slave of Eren who could do anything with her. And her eyes opened wide in horror because she received another shock. Reen suddenly manifested in front of Agatha as soon as her master called her out. The former looked at the slave in disgust before saying: “This won’t even be an appetizer for me, Erni. You should have arranged for more food.” Said the demon beast in a young girl’s…

“Exactly. We cultists don’t seem crazy now, do we?” The slave smirked at her master with that retort. But Eren gave her no response, indicating that she should proceed further. “Yes. The Beast contract spell is an inferior version of the path of therianthropy. The ability to call forth the beast soul and make it inhabit the semi-corporal body made of mana might look like an advantage the contract spell has over Anthropos, but trust me when I say that it is not. You have seen my rapid…

“I’m all ears.” Eren said while finishing what remained of the tea in his cup. He fixated his eyes on his slave and gestured her to take a seat nearby where he was. “Wha… What do you want to know about Beast Bloods?” Agatha felt nervous after sitting near her new master. Her instincts were now telling her that this person should never be harmed by her hands. Under any means, at all costs. Otherwise, she would have to face grim repercussions. “For starters, tell me what is the…

“Did you make contact with the cultists? Or do you have any leads?” Marla asked her team the next morning after they met up at the inn as they had planned. But all she got was a negative response from all of the teammates. She sighed after knowing her recon plan wasn’t bearing any fruit. “Alright. Tonight will be the last day. If we don’t find anyone tonight as well, then we will have to go back to LA without producing any results. This would affect our mission rewards severely but I’m…
