Aether Beasts

Long ago a great calamity struck the earth, destroying much of it and merging what remained with pieces of other worlds. With these worlds came Aether, a new form of energy that can allow one to transcend the bounds of normal mortality and human limitations. In a world where humans absorb the essence of aether beasts to gain power, Aiden Hawke joins the class of humans known as arcanists, people who defeat aether beasts and absorb their essence into cores they forge within themselves, and who infuse themselves with the aether that permeates the world around them to increase the power of their body and mind. However, unlike most, Aiden will find that he holds a unique gift and that his journey as an arcanist will not be so simple.

Chapter 103

The rest of our hunting trip was not as eventful as Misty's battle with the death beast had been. In the end, we'd come across a few beasts of the nature affinity and dark affinity along with more murwogs, a ton more murwogs. They truly were the most common beast on this floor, and we'd gotten to see just how deadly there were again when we came across the largest group of them yet, tearing into the same type of beast Misty had fought. Dozens had fallen, but they'd kept on attacking, and with their fleet wood spears, they'd eventually brought it down. We hadn't stayed to watch them devour it, though on our way back we had taken the core that had been left behind.

The murwogs couldn't take the essence from the death beast's core because they were of the water affinity, so they'd left it and we'd picked it up on our way back to the treehouse. It would be very beneficial to Misty who had said draining the bear had topped her up quite a bit.
