46 Chapter 46: Unleash the Beasts (Pt 2)

Seeing that the first group was killed off so easily, the group was relieved and excited.

They knew that ranks made huge differences but they did not expect the difference to be so large by just being SSS rank. They were not even top-tier SSS ranks but instead mid-tier. But when thinking about it, it made sense.

Peak B rank creatures, who have 3 times more stats than people, gained 90 stat points per level which would mean that the stat total (also called power level) of a level 135 creature was a little over 12,000.

Mid-SSS rank people though, gained between 250 and 275 stat points per level, making them nearly 3 times stronger than those B rank creatures, almost ironically becoming like beasts were to normal people of the same rank.

So even though the group had lower physical levels, their power levels outclassed these creatures by a large amount. Even Nyx who was still only an SS rank creature outclassed these beings easily.

With their newly gained confidence, the group began hunting a bit more recklessly. They began pulling larger groups.

Instead of the initial 5, Mordred would bring 15 or even 20 Chunik over at once before they would be swiftly killed by Persephone's and Nyx's powerful AOE (Area of Effect) abilities.

Over the next 4 hours, the entire Chunik population was decimated by the group of 4's tactics as well as their new beast skills, race skills, and the overwhelming power difference.

They would create a kill area where they could funnel all their enemies into before killing all of the ones in the local area.

Once an area was cleaned up, they would either move to a completely different area or, if there were no appropriate zones to make a kill area with, extend the radius of that area to cover much more ground.

Mordred and the others arrived at the lake before they knew it. Mordred and Satana both shifted into their other forms to test out their full power.

A bright light appeared around each of them for a moment before their new forms appeared. One floating in the sky above while the over stood proudly and arrogantly on the ground.

In the sky was a beautiful and majestic Tannin that gave off an evil and malevolent feeling to anyone who saw it. Satana had grown to over 20 meters in length with a nice girth to her reptilian/dragon body that made it seem neither slim nor beefy.

Satana's scales were the same color as her hair while her wings took on a golden hue similar to her horns. Her pair of horns changed shape as instead of forming a natural crown as they had before, the horns resembled the horns of a bull more now.

Satana's body slithered through the air as she looked down on everyone and everything beneath her as if waiting for anything to challenge her prestige and power.

The sight of Satana's new form left both Nyx in shock.

'The amount of danger I feel from her is huge. Is this the natural way inferior species feel before a much more powerful one?'

Nyx had always been around Mordred so she had grown used to the aura of an SS rank creature and would definitely not fear anything below it.

But the group had only recently become SSS rank creatures and Satana's current form made her comparable with late SSS ranks, early X ranks, or creatures of much higher levels due to the great increase in power that the dragon form had provided.

Persephone seemed fine and like she had expected it. Her attention was elsewhere. She was staring at what Mordred had changed into.

While not even close to coming as large as Satana, Mordred was still a mighty sight to behold. Even as a quadrupedal wolf, Mordred grew to 3 meters tall while standing on all 4 legs.

Mordred seemed like an ordinary wolf yet extraordinary at the same time. There were very few things that would make him stand out from other wolves, especially magical ones if he was next to them besides his size.

The first was his fur color. He had silver fur over all of his body while blue fur covered his forelimbs and also created tribal tattoo looking patterns over his body. He also had his 5 horns atop his head.

But the main difference was the presence of him. Mordred had not released his aura like Satana was but had instead reigned it at the moment he transformed yet he still gave out an overwhelming feeling.

Satana was like having an army of bloodthirsty soldiers standing before you. The threat was clear and obvious. But Mordred was more like an ocean.

While he seemed calm on the surface or from where someone was looking at him, they could instinctively tell just how dangerous he would be when he lost the calm and the waters became troubled.

Persephone could not take her eyes of Mordred and before she knew it, she had walked up to him and began stroking his fur.

'Soft. Very soft unlike normal wolves.'

Mordred had been watching the two so he knew when Persephone was going to act. He even had to control the lightning that naturally flowed along his skin so that it would not shock that stupid Witch.

'Who walks up to a creature as dangerous as I am and touches their fur without permission? Is she looking to die?'

Mordred shook his head of the thought. He knew how smart his partners were so he was not worried about them dying to some creatures just because of looks.

'She just knows it is me and admires my great self-control. That is the only reason she had dared to touch me.'

'Oh my. I got lost in thought and actually touched him. What if he bit me or had some weird lightning aura that would electrocute me?

I need to be more careful around the next fluffy creature I meet. We need to get our own base soon. I want to be able to sleep on this super soft fur.

Or maybe I can convince Mordred to let me shave him every now and then so I can make clothes, blankets, pillows, stuffed animals, etc.'

If Mordred could have heard her thoughts, he would be angered to death. Not only since the stupid girl wanted to shave him but also due to the shame of thinking that she was smarter than she actually was.
