With 14 Beast Marks, the Corrupted Beast was on the lower end of Infant Beasts. However, the sheer absurdity and abstract nature of its power boosted its danger several fold, placing it beside a regular, low Novice Beast. But even that was too low of a classification, as regular Novice Beasts could be understood. Taking countermeasures against a Light Beast or a Dark beast was not difficult, as research had been conducted for thousands of years to produce the most efficient ways of dealing with them.…-

Arthur let out a sigh of relief, chuckling as he fell to the ground, squirming in pain. The stone of mana stopped pumping energy into Arthur's body, dimming before assuming the appearance of a regular rock. Arthur coughed, cracking a smile as he stared at the ashen sky up above. His first step was on par with the Divine Rankers. If he could conquer the 22nd level, he would achieve the impossible. 'One more level… The wall that obstructed the path of all the other prodigies,' Arthur mused. His…

Arthur steadied his breathing as the particles that emerged from Skofnung faded. Sword Spirit dissipated, relieving most of the pressure on his mana circuits. However, in order to return to his peak condition, Arthur would need to rest. Rest would be the death of him. No matter how much he scrolled, Arthur wasn't able to locate Dino and Randy's rankings. However, most of the challengers were stuck on the 19th, 20th, 21st, and 22nd level. A few hundred to a few thousand had achieved…

The crimson line formed on the body of the beast, splitting it in half. Blood spewed like a geyser, dying the soil a deep, crimson shade. Skofnung squealed in joy, vibrating as it transmitted positive emotions. 'Shadow Beast…' Arthur muttered internally, causing his expression to distort. After a few hours of continuous battle, the crimson-eyed man would be lying if he said he wasn't exhausted. However, the strength of his foes continued to rise. Even after the preparations, Arthur was…

Just like that, a month passed. Arthur still hadn't stepped into the tower, which his comrades found unsettling. It was quite unusual for a player to refrain from challenging the first floor in the first month, as youngsters were often hot-blooded. The youngsters of the tower were brave and courageous, often seeking battles and displaying their strength. They were novelty-seeking idiots who only thought using their lower half. Their hormones were raging. However, Arthur was calm and composed.…

Dawn arrived shortly after. However, Arthur had awoken a few minutes before the rays of the sun decided to peek through his windows. The crimson-eyed man quickly freshened up before kicking the boar-like Randy in the abdomen. He stirred in his sleep, but there wasn't a significant reaction. Arthur clenched his teeth, wondering how a human could be this animalistic. The man was over 260 pounds, yet his behavior was so childish. It was almost like Arthur was living with a crocodile. As the soft…

"Gyuu had a daughter…" Randy and Arthur's eyes widened slightly. Neither of them could have assumed such a plot twist. The two immediately predicted–using the context clues–that Heather was Gyuu's daughter… Blaire nodded, as if empathizing. "The reason behind Erk's drastic change in demeanor was because he had discovered Gyuu's daughter. Gyuu's wife had already passed away, and only his daughter–Heather–remained in her dead arms." "The discovery was on the latter floors of the…

Blaire hesitated, wondering if the two would pester her for information about Erk's arrest. And, she was not mistaken. "How did Erk get arrested?" Arthur inquired, scrunching his eyebrows. Randy nodded, reinforcing Arthur's words. His expression contained curiosity and excitement, like a tiny puppy with sparkling eyes. "Nux won't allow…" "Did Nux allow you to speak of it?" Arthur asked, leaning back as a faint smile blossomed on his face. "Did he allow you to let us know of the matter? Are we…

"Ow…" The woman muttered, caressing her hip. The fall was quite sudden, providing her with no time to react. However, she couldn't allow the visitors to continue waiting. Clutching her hip, she somehow walked forward in pain. Four eyes peeked through the cracks in the door. The woman, realizing her fall had been witnessed, reddened in embarrassment. She slowly opened the door, only to see a crimson-eyed man and a muscular man standing at her doorstep. Their eyes contained disappointment and…

"That's not Sword Aura…" "Yeah, it's something else. Something… less powerful. It's not even close to the level Lucas displayed." "I knew it! Lucas was the most powerful!" "True, but this guy is still quite impressive. Even if he wasn't able to achieve Sword Aura, that's still much more powerful than me." "Yes, but he doesn't compare to Aditya and Lucas." "What about those commoners, Jessica and Eve, I think?" "Oh, he's definitely stronger. Jessica and Eve are laughable trash. The…
