My Summons Are Mythical Beasts

Only after hearing Lucas' voice does everyone recover from their shock.

The scene they witnessed was nothing more than shocking.

It must be noted that Vile Vultures, as their name suggests, were truly vile creatures.

They don't specifically target humans but seem to enjoy tormenting them to no end.

From time to time, reports of Vile Vultures stealing the kills of other humans would pop up in Serene City.

When the humans decide to fight back and retaliate against it, the Vile Vulture would simply fly away and would torment those humans that dared to attack it with no end.

There were even cases where humans were suddenly abducted by the Vile Vultures and then dropped from a high height. If the humans were not killed, they would simply do it again until the humans no longer breathed. And only in that moment would the Vile Vulture eat the human or take it away to feed their young.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It must be noted that Vile Vultures were Silver Grade beasts. Their ranks range from Bronze all the way to Silver as well, making them hard to deal with.

And if for some reason you manage to chase away one, a lot of them would simply surround you in the coming days, not allowing you to live a peaceful life from then on.

This was also the reason why Shelsea and her group were unwilling to deal with the Vile Vultures. They were not confident enough in killing it directly, and the likelihood of it escaping was as high as ninety percent.

In Serene City, humans had already developed the habit of standing still when Vile Vultures plunder their kill, just silently enduring the humiliation from the Vile Vulture's daylight robbery.

Today Shelsea and the others had already expected the Vile Vulture to get away with their kill.

Although the Blood Elk was very important to them, there was nothing they could do about it unless they wanted the endless torment the Vile Vulture might cause them in the following days.

They thought that there was nothing they could do about it, and since the Blood Elk would be taken away, they could only try their luck and find another one to serve their purpose.

However, what they did not expect was for Lucas to take action at the most crucial moment.

And not only did they manage to hold the Vile Vulture back, they even managed to kill it.

What was more mind-boggling was the fact that his summon did it alone without any sort of help.

Just how powerful was it for it to slay the Vile Vulture without allowing the latter to retaliate?

Now, they suddenly realized why Lucas had survived the forest while traveling alone.

Thinking of that, they could not help but take a few more glances toward his direction.

Even though his build was larger than the two males in their group, it was still apparent in his face that he was even younger than the two of them.

In the end, they just silently sighed.

"Thank you for your assistance." Shelsea bowed her head slightly toward him, expressing her gratitude at the bottom of her heart.

This Blood Elk was extremely important, especially for her.

The strength of her Blood Hound has already stagnated. If her Blood Hound could absorb the essence of the Blood Elk's blood, she reckoned that her Blood Elk might finally rank up once again.

"We did not bring anything of value for now, but once we're back in the city, we'll surely compensate you," she promised with a smile on her face.

"Don't mention it. I still need your help once we're inside the city. I just hope that you guys won't abandon me when that time comes, haha."

Lucas chuckled and did not think too much about their compensation.

However, catching the message between the words of Shelsea, he was indeed elated.

It seems that she now allocates some trust to him. Returning with them to the city should no longer pose any problem by now.

"Bro, don't worry. Even if our boss abandons you, I won't!" Kane exclaimed boldly without restraint.

Due to the strength exhibited by Spot earlier and how majestic he was when he sauntered back from the battle, Kane was fully captivated and now thought of him as the role model for his beasts.

He set a small goal for him and his beast.

Reach the elegance and arrogance exhibited by Spot earlier to achieve max level cool aura points.

"You rascal, what are you talking about? Who's abandoning who? You truly dare to badmouth me, and right in front of me at that? It seems that your bones have already hardened, huh?" Shelsea's voice echoed with a hint of amusement and anger.

Lucas turned to look at Shelsea, not expecting her to have such a dominant side to her.

'A domineering mature lady?'

However, upon recalling that Shelsea was their group's leader, it only seemed natural to have her domineering side.

Hearing that, Kane shivered in fright and hurriedly said, "I'll harvest the beast!"

Not wasting anymore time, he hurriedly ran toward the Blood Elk and began dissecting it.

Shelsea turned toward Lucas with a soft smile and said, "Don't take his words to heart. That kid speaks words before his brain could process them."

Lucas chuckled and said that it was not an issue.

After that show exhibited by Spot earlier, he noticed that their way of talking toward him had somehow changed.

Kane even called him 'bro' while Shelsea's voice was no longer as soft and restrained as earlier.

Lucas took note of the details as he asked, "Is the meat of the Vile Vulture edible?"

If it was, Lucas planned to roast it and have a feast. Discover stories at empire

Now that he has salt, he knew that the taste of these beasts would surely become more rich and flavorful.

"It is. Due to them being hard to hunt, their meat is actually very precious and sought after by the rich people in Serene City. Not to mention that its feathers, talons, and beak are also excellent crafting materials. If you need it in the future, I can introduce you to someone that knows how to craft weapons and other items from ranked beast materials."

Hearing that, Lucas nodded his head with a smile. "Thanks for the help!"

"Don't mention it!"

At this time, the Blood Hound of Shelsea suddenly returned by her side along with the Homing Pigeon.

Just before she could speak, a figure suddenly leapt away from Lucas' head.

Gentle Dog Spot made his move.

The Blood Hound halted as the small figure landed in front of her.

The two stared at each other for a few moments and seemed to be in some sort of confrontation.

However, a bewildering scene appeared right in front of Lucas and Shelsea at the next moment.

In his Gentle Dog form, Spot used Gentle Gaze and looked directly at the eyes of the Blood Hound.

In the end, as if the Blood Hound could not resist the allure, she suddenly lowered her body, allowing Spot to leap lightly to land atop her head softly.

Then, Spot made a few turns before ultimately settling on the comfortable fur of the Blood Bound.

The small figure of Spot resting at the top of the Blood Hound's head was quite comical.

A small dog rests atop a bigger dog.

Seeing the scene, Lucas and Shelsea could not help but be dumbfounded.

'This rascal really dares to play like this!' Lucas mused inwardly.

However, since Shelsea did not say anything, how could he stop the advances of his boy?

"Y-your dog is truly unique," Shelsea muttered in disbelief.

She also saw its usage of the Gentle Gaze earlier, and even she could not help but feel soothed and calm upon seeing those cute eyes. If her Blood Hound had not lowered its head, perhaps she herself would not have been able to resist and hug Lucas' beast directly.

For a moment, she even forgot how brutal and arrogant it was when it was dealing with the Vile Vulture.

'Sigh! Appearance can indeed be deceiving,' she thought to herself.

She looked at Lucas beside her and noticed that he was actually very handsome as well.

'Could he be the same as his contracted beast?' She mused.

Shelsea chuckled inwardly. So what if he was indeed arrogant and brutal? What does that have to do with her?

Meanwhile, seeing the peculiar look in Shelsea's eyes, Lucas could not help but shiver.

Those gazes felt as if he was being misunderstood, and deeply at that.

"Uhhh... should we help with the dissection of the beast?" He said after some hesitation.

Taking one last glance at Spot and her Blood Hound, she subtly nodded her head and then walked toward the carcass of the Blood Elk and the Vile Vulture.

At this point, Kane and the others have already begun processing the Blood Elk.

As for the Vile Vulture, without receiving any word from Lucas, they did not dare to touch it.

Lucas arrived and observed them before asking, "Why do you collect the blood?"
