CHAPTER 108 ITS EXISTENCE

They finally reached the location where the horse is being held captive, it is secured with iron walls but the sound of continuous pounding can be heard.

Shadow's expression turns serious, he senses the bloodline of the so-called stead and he cannot help but ask "How did you guys manage to capture such a creature?"

Shelia smiles brilliantly "It is actually a beast king, unfortunately, it does not have a herd, it travels by itself and because of its magnificent aura and the bloodline that is hidden within it, the Centaurs tried to capture it."

"Is it a female?" Since the Centaurs are tempted, it means that it has a lot of potential, after all, the Centaurs might not be true members of the God Race but they are still nonetheless a part of it.

To ignite their greed regarding a bloodline just shows how magnificent the bloodline of the horse is, he cannot help but be tempted to tame it for his army.

"What type of horse is it, from my knowledge, not all races can ride horses, each of us have our own suitable mounts." He asks.

Shelia sighs "The horse is more suitable to be ridden with a human rider than those of the other races, unfortunately, it is quite proud, no matter how many times we tried to subdue it, the horse is just too stubborn to yield."

"Have you used different methods to subdue it?" He asks, if they cannot subdue it in a gentle manner, then, they can use other methods, cruel as they may be but history proves that those methods are effective.

"It would rather die than submit, we tried to starve it, beat it and many other cruel methods but the horse refuses to yield, in fact, it garners Lou Yan and Ban's admiration towards it." She sighs, she actually respects the horse herself but it is just too important for their kingdom to let go.

"Leave everything to me, just prepare a den for it to use, as long as we can obtain a steady amount of their kind, we will be able to nurture a much more powerful cavalry." He says in a confident manner.

Shelia becomes excited, she immediately believes him, without hesitation, she opens the door and a loud neigh comes out.

A red horse with a powerful aura tries to escape but Shadow makes his move, he teleports in front of it and grabs its head with his powerful strength.

He stimulates both his strength and Clwyd's strength using the power of his bloodline, the horse is shocked that someone managed to stop it, using only brute force.

"You will not escape!" He roared before slamming the horse to the ground, it grunted in pain.

"Now, Submit!" He asks his stead for help, this is the method that he chooses, this horse might be strong and has a hidden bloodline that can ignite both the greed and appreciation of the Centaurs but his own stead is much more terrifying.

ROAR! The aura of his stead explodes out of his body, it forces the horse to kneel, no matter how stubborn the horse is, it is still a beast, it cannot deny its instinct.

Slowly, its body lowers and after giving Shadow an expression filled with indignation and shame, it lowers its head.

[Taming Successful!]

[Increase Beastmaster's Occupation Proficiency!]

He feels something coursing through him, he is confused, he asks "What is this? A new type of ability?"

[Affirmative, the incident regarding the mention of the UNMENTIONABLE has sealed some of my abilities.]

"You know, you become more humane as I grow stronger, is this some sort of level or ranking up on your side?" He notices that as he interacts with the Great Emperor System, it becomes easier for him to have a conversation with it.

[Not an upgrade, I have accumulated the data and heavenly laws from you, you are giving me strength, just like I am giving you, my existence is a taboo, in order for me to hide, I have to fuse with your soul, giving me human-like qualities in the process.]

"Fuse with my soul? Then, Wouldn't this harm you if I die?" This startles him a little bit but he is inwardly happy that his existence is tied with the system's wellbeing.

[Negative, Only if you grow stronger will I become truly one with your soul, I can still survive even if your soul suffers total annihilation but it will take me a long time to find another suitable host such as you.]

"That is understandable, by the way, I have a different question, how did your existence come about? Such powerful abilities are too heaven-defying!"

[I am the world consciousness or a remnant at least, of your old world, after I was devoured by the UNMENTIONABLE, I had preserved myself through various means.]

He frowns and asks "If you are the consciousness of our old world, then, why choose me? You even perform like the old video game that I had found in the past."

[You are the only one that I can latch upon, there are other systems of power just like me but they are all operating under the supervision of the UNMENTIONABLE.]

[The video game that you had found is a unique item that does not belong to me, using that, I had preserved myself, if you do not exist, I will definitely be destroyed and made into a slave by the UNMENTIONABLE.]

"If this is the case, even if you survive after my soul suffers from something like soul destruction, you still wouldn't be able to escape from the grasp of that thing."

[Affirmative, your ultimate that I will give you is simple.]

[SURVIVE!]

He nods his head and thinks 'The longer that I exist in this universe, the stronger the Great Emperor System will become, this works in my favour!'

[Check the mission logs, during these three years, you have accumulated a lot of experience to level up your supposed to be main occupation.]
