Sovereign of the Firmaments

'Roar'

Just as Lucas and Beck were having a conversation, there were loud roars from the portal that made everyone alert.

"Looks like there are more evil spirit beasts in the portal."

Lucas became serious as he said while looking into the portal.

"Young master, Ada can't fight anymore."

Beck became anxious because if there is a rank 3 evil spirit beast coming out of the portal, it would be a bad thing for them.

The white lion has already used its strongest skill and now it is out of stamina.

"Roar"

"Roar"

While they were thinking about what they had to do, they saw two evil spirit beasts just like the one the white lion had just killed, trying to come out of the portal.

However, the good thing was those two rank 3 evil spirit beasts were trying to come.

<Congratulations to the three participants who made it to the final round. As long as you kill those two evil spirit beasts, one of you can pick an advanced skill and leave this dungeon>

As usual, the dungeon spirit didn't have complete control over the evil portal and what the participants sees, the spirit can see a little more.

So, the spirit confirmed those were the last two evil spirit beasts and decided to end the last round.

"Beck, Luna, let's attack them and kill before they could even come out of the portal."

Unlike Beck and Luna, Lucas was calm as he experienced even more dangerous situations than the current one. So, he ordered the two girls.

As for the reward from the dungeon spirit regarding the second round, they could ask but they didn't have much time for it. So, they didn't ask about them before focusing on the two evil spirit beasts.

As long as they kill those two evil spirit beasts, they could enjoy quite some rewards. So, they didn't waste any more time.

'Should I just consume the lesser knight pill and become a Lesser Knight?'

Lucas remembered the lesser knight pill; however since he could naturally increase his cultivation just using his short swords without a problem. Lucas decided to not use the pill.

There was another reason why he didn't want to use a pill because the Knights or Mages who use the pill will be weaker than the naturally became Knights and Mages.

'Only if I had strong short swords.'

Looking at the single rank 1 short sword in his hands, Lucas muttered to himself.

Even though he has four rank 3 swords in his inventory, Lucas can't use them because he didn't have a slight mastery in swords.

Even if he swung them, it would not deal half the damage when he used the short sword in his hand.

'Wolf's bite'

'Enhanced spirit beast.'

While thinking that, Lucas rushed towards the two struggling evil spirit beasts in the portal, as Beck and Luna released two of their powerful spells.

The ferocious wolf's face appeared in front of him as it attacked the left evil spirit beasts and the rank 2 purple-coloured spider grew in size as it used its sharp legs to attack the right evil spirit beast.

'Slash'

As for Lucas, he continued to slash at the right evil spirit beast continuously.

'Ding,

One experience point gained in short sword mastery.

Short sword:- Complete success stage (1/ 1000)

'Ding,

.

'Ding,

One experience point gained in short sword mastery.

Short sword:- Complete success stage (10/ 1000)

For every ten or so times he slashed the short sword, Lucas gained an experience point that made him motivated to slash at the evil spirit beasts continuously.

'Huf Huf'

By the time he gained 10 experience points, he had slashed at the evil spirit beasts more than 100 times that made him out of breath.

However, he knew he could not stop it now as it would be very dangerous for him and the two girls if both evil spirit beasts come out of the portal.

'But, at this rate, we are not going to kill them as they barely got any injuries despite being injured by him and others hundreds of times.'

'Ding,

Unless the host kills them in a single hit, they will naturally get healed by the evil energy from the other side of the portal.

'What?'

Finally, Lucas understood why all their efforts were futile despite trying their hardest and cursed the system, 'And you are telling me this now?'

"Beck, Luna, get some rest, There is no need for you to attack them as they will naturally recover from the evil energy from the other side."

Even though it was beneficial for Lucas to continue attacking them, it was not a good thing for the two girls who were mages. The more they use their spell, the more magic power they would spend.

So, he asked them to rest and recover their magic power.

'What?'

Naturally, both the girls were shocked as they didn't have much knowledge of the evil portals as they never saw one before today.

"So, what should we do now, young master?"

Beck hurriedly asked Lucas and at the same time, she asked, 'System, what should I do now?'

"I don't know; however, I need you to have your magic seas filled with magic power before they come out of the portal."

Lucas thought for a moment as he said those words and took a few moments to relax before resuming his slashing with the short swords to increase his mastery in the short swords.

'Ding,

The hostess is still short of 10 beast points to buy the rank 3 beast evolution pill.

'Sigh...even after killing so many evil spirit beasts I didn't have 1000 beast points.'

Beck bitterly shook her head as he looked at her young master who was trying to increase his mastery to become a Lesser Knight.

'My young master has just had a break through and now he is trying for another one. I have to do something because he is going to fail for sure.'

How could breaking through from the mid-level squire to high-level squire in less than a couple of hours be easy? Many mid-level squires train very hard for months to become high-level squires. So, Beck was sure that Lucas' plan would not work.

Beck silently muttered to herself as he asked the system, 'System, can't you help me in taming the evil spirit beasts just like how I tame the regular spirit beasts?'

Beck, with the help of her 'Beast tamer system', tamed two rare spirit beasts like a Winged white lion and a Netherworld's spider.

So, she was thinking that the system could help her in taming the two evil spirit beasts that were currently struck in the portal.

'Ding,

The hostess' beast tamer rank is very low and so is the system. So, there is nothing the system could do regarding the current situation. Please figure out a method on your own hostess.

The system in Beck's head gave up on her and asked her to deal with her current situation.

With the system's notification, Beck became pale as she fell to the ground and looked at Lucas with tears in her eyes.

'Ding,
