Chapter 13: A Fire Lizard, High-level Platinum Rank Beast!
"Elara, you're so beautiful in that dress," Cain said when he looked at Elara, who was coming out of her house with a shy face as she thought about the scene before.
Elara was wearing an elegant white evening dress featuring a lace bodice with a V-neckline and three-quarter-length lace sleeves. The bodice had a floral lace design that added a touch of sophistication.
The skirt was long and fitted, with a thigh-high slit on one side, and included a draped detail around the waist, giving the gown a stylish and flattering silhouette.
"Really?" Elara asked as she fidgeted her hands in nervousness.
"Of course. However, doesn't your chest feel tight when you wear it?"
Cain asked with a wicked smile as he looked at her cleavage, noticing the generous curves that seemed to strain against the fabric.
"Hmph… Pervert." Elara pouted and snorted in response before approaching Nix.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Elara said as she stroked Nix's body gently.
"He's a male Ice Dragon, and his name is Nix," Cain introduced Nix to Elara as he patted Nix's body softly.
"Nix, this is Elara. She is my woman." Cain then walked to Elara and gave her a playful slap on her buttock, causing her face to turn red.
"Who is your woman? And get your hand off me, you pervert." Elara moved his hand away as Cain enjoyed squeezing her soft backside after the slap.
"Sooner or later, you will be mine. What's the point of denying it now?" Cain then moved his hand towards her hips and pulled her closer to him until their bodies touched.
However, when Cain leaned in to kiss her, Elara immediately pushed his head away and stepped back. "There is another person here, you shameless pervert!"
"Don't worry, he won't see or care about anything," Cain said as he stared at her cleavage and smiled pervertedly.
…
After joking for a bit, they departed and went outside the city, heading towards one of the most dangerous mountains in the Elarion Kingdom, which was filled with strong beasts everywhere.
"Wow, it feels good riding a dragon while looking at the beautiful scenery below," Elara said, enjoying the view of the beautiful forest from above.
"Isn't it? I also can't help but feel awe," Cain responded as he also enjoyed the scenery.
A few hours later, they finally saw the huge mountain ahead, and Cain immediately ordered Nix to go deeper, as there were only weak beasts around the mountain's periphery.
After hovering in the sky for a while and still haven't found a beast that he was looking for, Cain became frustrated because he only found either a beast that was too weak or too strong for Nix to handle.
"Host, why don't you use the scanning function from the system instead of wasting your time by searching aimlessly?"
A mechanical voice sounded in Cain's head as it reminded him about one of the system functions, which could help him to scan within a certain range depending on his strength.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Cain's face became flat with a dumb expression as he just realized that he forgot about the scan function from the system.
"System… Why don't you remind me about this earlier?"
"You didn't ask." The system replied with a mocking tone as if someone would say it as they shrugged.
"You Motherf- … Nvm, just activate the scanning function from now on." Cain ordered the system.
"Done!"
[Ding! Detected a Wind Parrot, Mid-level Bronze Rank Beast 50 meters ahead.]
[Ding! Detected a Fire Wolf, High-level Silver Rank Beast 90 meters northeast ahead.]
[Ding! Detected an Earth Mole, Low-level Bronze Rank Beast 60 meters beneath you.]
[Ding! Detected a Bear, Low-level Gold Rank Beast 300 meters west ahead.]
…
Dozens of notifications rang in his mind as he detected dozens of beasts, ranging from Bronze Rank Beasts (Rank 2) to Platinum Rank Beasts (Rank 5) in the vicinity of a 2 km radius, as Cain had reached Platinum rank Beast Master.
"Stop it now!" Cain ordered the system to stop the scan function as he was annoyed by the dozens of notifications.
"From now on, only detect beasts of platinum rank and above." Cain instructed the system.
"Done!" The system responded.
[Ding! Detected a Fire Wolf, Low-level Platinum Rank Beast 500 northeast ahead.]
[Ding! Detected…
…
A few minutes later, after Cain checked the beasts that were detected by the system, he then instructed Nix to fly west.
When Cain felt the distance between them and the beast was already near enough, he told Nix to slow down his speed.
50 meters ahead of them, Cain saw a big lizard that was about 5 meters tall and 15 meters long, resembling a typical Komodo Dragon, except for its larger size and that his body was coated with red scales.
The lizard was eating a fresh carcass, which Cain assumed was a cow or something similar based on the body that had been torn apart by the lizard's claw.
He then checked the information of the Fire Lizard once again just to make sure that there wouldn't be any danger for Nix to kill it by himself.
