The weakened Elder rat tied in a shabby wooden chair inside one of the rundown buildings. With it was a grinning person standing by its side.

Though it was trying to free itself by squirming its body, the struggle bears nothing. (Lol) It looks like a victim of kidnapping. Well, it certainly was.

Also, Yeman was certainly laughing inside for what he did. Now he looks like a kidnapper.

Well, he did it to get better results for his Taming Skill; since, if the thread broke, it wouldn't work. And the skill would be canceled. Then, nothing will happen.

So he had to do it this way. Yeman could see the number 300/1,000 HP above its head.

He narrowed his eyes while thinking, "it was 10/1,000 a while ago. So how come? Oh, well, no point in thinking unnecessary things right now. Uh, wait--"

"Hmmmn..... a while ago I saw it cast a spell. Maybe it was-- a regeneration type of magic?" Yeman thought while placing his right hand on the Elder rat head.

"Fufu, how I wish it could heal me, " he said and slowly opened his mouth. *Artifice Thread!* After he spoke out the skill name, a thin thread that made of pure energy slowly came out of his middle finger and proceeded towards the Elder rat's neck.

Creak! Ack!

The Elder rat tried to rid his hand by twisting its head. However, nothing bears fruit, no matter what it did. Yeman smirked at the struggling monster.

Aacck! Kkaaaahhhhh!!

"Hey, hey, easy-- no need to get anxious buddy, we're going to be friends sooner, " he said with a chuckle.

Then, he continued mumbling, "I wonder what happen after this. Khufufufu, I'm excited for some reason." He laughed. Yeman only needs to wait for 5 minutes to complete the process.

On the other hand, Mina arrived at their hideout. She was surprised after seeing that no one was inside except her.

"Hmm, where those old men go?" Though she's wondering where they went, she's tired as fuck! So she leaned her tired back on the tattered sofa at the sala. It's not easy to use high tier magic.

Mina has drained her stamina. She felt dizzy and sleepy, but she needed to hold on much longer. Cause she's wondering, "where that person go? He suddenly able to use magic and vanish along with the monster. By the way, who said that guy couldn't use magic?! He certainly was duping everyone! Hmmm, but the evaluation exam wouldn't lie with the results either. So how does it happen? Did his magic awakened around this time?" Mina's mind was full of questions.

But whatever she asked, no answers came to her. So, she decided to push it at the back of her mind for now. Later, she would ask that person personally when he came back.

Mina stretchesbher white arms and legs to accomodate the sofa and slowly closed her eyes. Though she wanted to stay awake, her eyes won't let her.

Around this time,

Ronny, Leo, and Stonehard were following the secret passage.
