He then approached the dragon carcass and was planning to share it to his family when the SYSTEM gave him a warning.

(Warning to Host: If you want to eat the dragon carcass please only eat a small amount since the energy from the dragon was too bountiful for monsters such as you and your family.)

​​

(Sans is a special case and can devour thrice as much as the others.)

(Banjo was also an exception and can at least eat as much as a Gold Rank Monster could.)

(Dragon blood can also be used to water the Luminous Tree of Life. The continuous watering can make the Luminous Tree of Life evolve into a Draconic Glowing Tree of Life.)

(Dragon eye is also a great tonic for monsters. If a monster consume a dragon eye they will have a 25% chance of obtaining an ability or a skill pertaining in eyes. In addition, consuming both the eyes of the same dragon will increase the monster's chances to 70%.)

'So if I consume both of this dragon's eye, I will have a 70% chance in increasing my ability or skill for my eyes? This is great!' Shadow is excited to do it when the SYSTEM notified him:

(No, the Host will have a 100% of obtaining an ability or skill after consuming both of the eyes because the System recognize the dragon's eye as an item and will use the most efficient way on using it.)

He was enlightened and started eating the dragon's eye. However, because of its size, it took him an hour to eat everything. He then waited for the SYSTEM's announcement.

(Congratulation on the Host in obtaining the Active Ability Clairvoyance!)

(Clairvoyance : An ability that predicts the next move of the opponent.

Reminder : Can only be used in fighting an enemy that the Host can see.

Reminder 2 : The duration of the ability is 1 hour, but leveling to a Silver Rank can increase the duration to 2 hours.

Reminder : can only be used once per day.)

He was very happy to have this ability. With this he could become a counter attack master monster.

He also had Sans devour some scales of the dragon while shared the meat to the other family members. He also used the blood to water the Luminous Tree of Life.

The amount of the energy of the dragon meat was strong that the others have to sleep, this is even more so because although they only eat a little. Nevertheless, what surprised him though is that France ate at least 10 times the amount from the others. It seems that eating a dragon meat was greatly beneficial to a roc species, hence, France entered a deep sleep.

Moreover, there was still too much meat to spare. The red dragon's size was 30 kilometers long and as wide as a house.

The only one who were still awake were him, Sans and Banjo.

"Lets go and defeat some Silver Rank monsters that has a great potential and subdue them."

'SYSTEM how many monsters can I contract as a my summoned monster?'

(None Rank to Silver Rank will give you 2 slots each. Sans was an exception because it is the first summon of yours.)

(Host now has no more slot!)

'Oh'

He was dejected to hear that and changed his plan from subduing monsters to searching for plants and trees that are on {Orange Quality} and above. Also they needed to have a concrete information about their surrounding.

He then nodded and was about to leave when he felt strange.

He saw that Sans was just slumping on the ground so as Banjo.

He was puzzled especially since Sans has no intelligence and won't question his orders.

The SYSTEM then informed him:

(Banjo, Sans, and France are undergoing evolution. Sans and France will need 3 days to a week to finish. Banjo will be needing a month to a year to finish.)

He was stunned by such information. To think that the 3 of them were undergoing evolution and the time needed was at least 3 days for Sans and France.

'SYSTEM, is there any method in hastening the process?'

(For Sans, it just needs to continuously devour dragon blood and meat. For Banjo putting him inside the dragon is the best method in ensuring an early evolution. Lastly, for France there is none.)

After listening to the SYSTEM he then drags Sans and Banjo towards the dragon.

He followed the SYSTEMS input and placed them inside the dragon separately.

He then got out of the cave and decided to explore the forest all by himself.

The exploration went until noon. Hee returned to the cave while bringing a flower.

This is a {Violet Quality} Charming Devil Flower.

(Charming Devil Flower : A flower that can increase beauty and charming ability of any monster. This is especially a great tonic for a monster that is on any Charming Race.

Type : Yin/Nature

Quality : Orange)

His exploration went out without any trouble. Every monster that the SYSTEM can not scan, he immediately avoided them and in the entire day, he only hunted one monster. Unfortunately, it is even an injured Silver Rank 3 (Normal Grade) Feral Spiky Haired Boar monster. With the fight and the amount of energy he accumulated he leveled up into Bronze Rank Level 3, which is actually helpful for him.

When he came inside he saw that the others were still assimilating the energy and continuously in their deep sleep.

'SYSTEM in which location should I plant the Charming Devil Flower?'

(Near the Yin Pond. If the Charming Devil Flower absorbs enough yin energy it has a probability of evolving into Pinkish Charming Devil Flower, a higher quality of a Charming Devil Flower)

The Charming Devil Flower was then planted near the Yin Pond.

Seeing that it was getting late he then sleeps on top of the dragon's head. Darkness covers the place except for the area near the Luminous Tree of Life.

The next day, Shadowslash woke up along with the rest. After consuming a small amount of dragon meat, all of them leveled up, even Leafinia. But, the one who have the most noticeable increase in strength is Flare, she is now a Level 7.

All of them seems slightly fidgety. It shows that to fully absorb the energy of the dragon meat, they need to fight some monsters.

"Okay everyone I know all of you are notably restless so I propose that you need to have a mock battle with each other. I will be the one to assign in pairing all of you. Mom, Flare and Dorothy will be Team A and fighting against them is Team B which consist the rest of the girls. Alright? Any questions?"

JM suddenly raises his hand "Umm, Boss what about me?"

"You are coming with me to explore outside." He then ate a bit of the dragon meat and went to explore with JM.

He left together with JM while the others started their mock battle. After exploring some parts of the forest, JM become suddenly cautious and scared as they at least saw 20 different Gold Rank monsters.

Shadowslash carefully stops while sending JM a signal. He also found a monster that is on Silver Rank. This is a very perfect prey for JM to finish his evolution.

Earthen Steel Rhino:

(Silver Rank Lvl 3)

(Rare)

(Steel and Ground Type)

"JM, we have to do it like how we usually hunt. Trap it on a quicksand and, by the way, can you also fight in the frontline after using quicksand?"

"Yes I can but it is much more efficient if I

continue controling the quicksand. If I let my control go awry, that is not advantageous for us. Then I also need to input a specific amount of mana." JM helplessly said.

"Oh it seems that it has a lot of restrictions. Anyway, this skill is much better if it is an ability." Shadowslash just realize that JM's skill has a lot of limitations.

"Yes I thought so, too, but I need to evolve if I want to make this skill into an ability." JM said to him.

Shadowslash was grateful and relieved that a skill can be made into an ability. Just to make sure, he asks the SYSTEM if it is 100% possible.

(Yes, on a rare occasion once a monster evolves a skill can be turn into an ability.)

He is elated with that but kind of puzzled.

'So how did JM became so sure that his skill will turn into an ability?'

(A monster instinct). The SYSTEM's immediate answer.

Shadowslash nodded and no longer asked questions. What is important now is to hunt this Silver Rank Earthen Steel Rhino and have JM devour it to finally achieve the evolution process.

"JM just input half of your overall Mana and join me in fighting the Earthen Steel Rhino later."

He then dash towards the rhino brimming with hostility while JM hide in the bushes. He awaits the rhino to be careless in this fight so he can successfully trap it.

Feeling the hostility that Shadowslash is emitting, the Earthen Steel Rhino was at first startled, wary and scared. However, after feeling the energy that Shadowslash was releasing that was only that of Bronze Rank level, it felt livid. To be challenge by a monster weaker than itself is unacceptable!

It lets out a roar and started charging at Shadowslash.

Seeing the rhino charging at him, Shadowslash let out a crafty smile.

When the rhino was about to ram him, he skillfully and nimbly dodge the attack by jumping and turning. His flexible body is like dancing instead of attacking. He then scratch the rhino's eyes using [Dark Slash].

The attack blinded the rhino and after charging to Shadow, it couldn't stop which it eventually rammed a huge tree. The event cause it to be shaken. It looks at Shadowslash on its remaining eye full of hatred and when it was getting ready for another charge, something occured making it fall down.
