Everyone, even Liam watched in awe as the little creature opened her mouth and an incredible suctional force emerged from within, something like a black hole. The force started moving everything from the heaped-up pile of potential treasures into the small mouth, sucking away everything like a vacuum.
And for the tenth time, Luna casually consumed everything that was leftover, licking her lips. Yet, no one was anywhere close to getting used to such a scene.
Even Liam found it hard to believe. Shouldn't a divine beast be more selective and elegant? But knowing this little glutton, elegance, and pride came after food. Stomach first. Rest later.
The fox's bulging stomach, the satisfied intoxicated expression on her face, and the loud burp that followed were enough to put anyone to tears, tears from laughing hard. However, the group at the moment was in no mood to laugh.
In the blink of an eye or what felt like a blink of an eye, the group had smashed through ten floors of the spire. Everyone had gained a lot including the beast companions and Dante. But now it was truth time.
The eleventh floor was going to be an individual challenge and not a group one. This meant that everyone had to prove their worth to keep continuing their climb in the Spire.
"Do your best." Liam did not say much as the golden glow started covering everyone. This was as much a test from him as it was from the Spire.
He needed to know if he could rely on any of them in the long run. He needed to know if these past few days of intense training in the fighting pits had amounted to anything. Until now Liam had done most of the things by himself as it was quicker that way but he had already realized his mistake. While it was easier and faster to do everything by himself, he could not be in ten places at the same time. His soul minions were not yet as independent as he would like them to be. In this situation, he needed able people back in the guild who could hold their own and face stronger opponents at least to a certain degree. Otherwise, every time he left the guild, they would be sitting ducks and it would be open season for hunting.
The world was ruthless and vast and he had more enemies than he could count. It was better to groom some more reliable pillars for the guild. In the past, he barely spent any time or resources to groom the guild but now it was going to be different. This Spire was a good starting point. The many teleportation tokens he had purchased from the system shop were also full of opportunities.
While he did not plan on babysitting the guild members, he at least wanted to open a door for them to break out of their boundaries. But first, they needed to show that they had what it takes. Otherwise, his resources would be better spent on grooming tamed beasts instead. This might sound harsh but the reality was also harsh.
Liam watched as a brilliant golden glow shrouded everyone and he silently wished them good luck. The next second he appeared in a huge cave. He was once again alone, not even the soul sword by his side.contemporary romance
However, this time the test did not seem to be something roundabout. Liam looked around and immediately found a huge slumbering beast farther inside the cave.
Just as he noticed the beast, the beast also noticed his presence. The slumbering sounds came to a halt and a pair of vicious eyes turned towards him, locking on him.
Liam indifferently stared at the huge figure. From his angle, it looked like a bear, but its body was muscular and beefy without any flabby parts. More importantly, the bear seemed to be well-versed in earthen element.
Instantaneously, several earthen spikes jutted out of the ground, blocking the only exit to the cave and caging Liam in place. Surprisingly, no spear sprang up under his foot in an effort to impale him.
It looked like the bear was more interested in caging him than killing him.
"Human… I am bored… you have arrived at a good time. Let me use you to relieve some of my pent-up juices! ROAR!" The bear's arrogant voice echoed in the small cave as a huge boner suddenly popped in between its legs.
Liam's face twitched. He stared dumbfoundedly at the huge talking bear whose head was scraping the top of the cave. Its boner was equally impressive.
The monster approached Liam keeping one huge paw in front of another and slowly circling him. It eyed him from top to bottom as it slurped in a perverted manner.
"You seem strong. I hope you last for more than a round." The bear did not want to talk anymore. It let out a huge growl as it directly pounced on Liam.
Liam shivered at the thought. What the heck was this trial? He looked at the deviant bear and shook his head as he prepared himself. He too had something pent up for a while now. He was at the precipice of achieving a breakthrough and any move from him should instantly trigger it. It was an itch that he could scratch for the past few days and it had been a torment of sorts to hold it in for so long.
A thick mana barrier appeared around Liam, instantly blocking the rabid horny beast and it only served to anger it further. As powerful swipes and earthen spikes assaulted him, Liam centered himself and activated his nether core. The bear froze momentarily at the sudden surge of energy emanating from Liam. The air around them crackled with power as Liam's nether core, a deep well of energy within him, awakened fully. He felt the energy coursing through his veins, a sensation that was exhilarating.
With one swift push, he blasted all of that nether outward, forming a dense nether field all around him.
