Chapter 274: Lyra
Out of the corner of his eye, Derek saw Edgar’s eyelid twitch as he pulled out one of his chairs and sat on it. The prince was also one who enjoyed a nice, cushioned seat, but it looked like he was too proud to ask-
“Hey! Give me one of those!” Edgar finally broke.
Derek laughed, but in the end, he opened his Time Prison and allowed everyone to go inside and bring out one of the chairs they used for furniture. Still, those chairs weren’t as comfy as...

Chapter 273: Post-Fight
Derek walked over to Edgar and his wyvern once he saw the contract was finally formed. It was a pretty amazing sight, watching someone tame such a beast. It was entirely different from what he had experienced with Silvi. Still, Edgar was lucky the beast hadn’t tried to make him its contracted beast like Silvi had Derek. Then again, he hoped Silvi’s personality would never change. It’s what made her the best bonded companion of the bunch.
“You did it...

Meanwhile, while Derek and Avery were facing the death attuned wyvern, Edgar was going through his own troubles with the fire wyvern. At a certain point, the wyvern seemed to have had enough, and summoned a massive fire tornado around itself, preventing Edgar from safely rushing in a getting close enough to enact his plan.
The ground beneath them was set completely ablaze, and smoke covered the area. The fire was so hot that it somehow set even the stone from th...

After a couple of looks back and forth, Derek telepathically sent to Avery, ‘What now?’
Avery looked around the area, blood still dripping from his body. ‘There’s still some time left with these buffs,’ he sent back. ‘Let’s take care of some of these little guys.’ Then he pointed to a certain beast hovering in the air above. ‘Don’t touch that one, though. It’s mine.’

Derek didn’t have too much time to view all the notification he received, so he only glanced at the kill notification before dismissing it.
“Whew…” Derek rubbed the sweat off his brow. Just the one kill, split four ways between himself, Edgar, Jasper, and Tara, had given him just over two levels. There goes my trying not to level… He also ...

Chapter 269: Stunned
Derek felt elation as he held on to a protruding scale on the wyvern’s upper neck, where it meets its head. The wings of the beast had stalled after his attack landed on the side of its head. Just as he got a good grip on the beast, it began to plummet to the ground. Derek held on for all he was worth.
With the beast’s wings being outstretched when it began to fall, it plummeted at an angle, almost in a glide. Derek hadn’t received a notification, so he ...

Chapter 268: First Contact
The wyrm whipped its head just in time to see the large crescent slash fire out from Derek’s attack. This time, because it was infused with void energy, the half-moon attack carried with it a purple hue. Without any more time to react, the wyrm faced the attack head on with a roar.
Time seemed to slow as Derek watched on in anticipation. He wanted, no, needed to see how well this current attack worked on an epic ranked monster. This would go far in det...

As the trio of wyverns vanished, Derek moved back to the ground. He had so many questions. Soon, both Edgar and Avery appeared beside him, both with questioning gazes. Before saying anything, Derek opened his Time Prison and let Jasper and Tara out. The duo exited, then looked around curiously.
“So, what do you think that was?” Derek asked as he closed the prison and zipped up the void.
“I was going to ask you that,” Edgar said.

At least it seemed like Edgar was having a bit more luck than the tank.

The heat may not have been unbearable, but that didn’t mean Derek would come away unscathed. The breath from the wind wyvern had amplified the breaths from the other two. And he still wasn’t sure what element the black wyvern was using, and a quick Identify didn’t help. He turned around to look at the three beasts, brushing away the level up he received in his Absolute Nullify skill.
He hadn’t expected to find a monster he wouldn’...

Avery and Tyron squared off in the same area where Edgar and Derek had sparred. Much of the ground was destroyed-a good portion of what grass there was had been singed by the lighting that had radiated out from Edgar or had been loosed from his attacks. There was also a small portion of the ground covered in blood from some of the cuts Derek took that hadn’t immediately been cauterized or healed on the spot.
The two fighters stared intensely at one a...
