(R) Legendary Summoner
Jade Python's

Forest Area ...

"Oh so. I happen to have two Earth Monster Essence and one Natural Monster Essence. Take it." Said Listh while giving the gist he said to Ryuha. Of course Ryuha accepted it happily, not sparing him to say a word of thanks to the woman who walked beside him.

"Meaning with this, we only need to find one Fire Monster Essence and three Natural Monster Essence." Ryuha.

"Looks like I know where we can get Fire Monster Essence?!" Lists can feel the pressure of the wild heat that is several tens of meters from their place, although the pressure emitted is not very strong. But he was sure that in that place there was a nest of monsters that had the fire attribute.

Guided by Listh, the two of them went to a place where they thought there was a lair of fire element monsters. Walk a few hundred meters, until they were in a mountainous region that was not too high. From there it began to appear in Ryuha's eyes a group of birds that paddled the branches and branches of trees.

"Huh, looks like it's the beast you have to exterminate?! Wellh, since the end point is in the mountainous region so, it won't be far from the word bird and wolf." Say Lists.

From a distance Ryuha carefully observed the curves of the creature's body. It was a dove that had dark red and bright orange fur at the end of its feathers. His blazing dark red eyes were also a small blaze of flames flying at the tip of his wings and his tail clearly indicated that the monster was a fire-heavy attribute.

"Flame Dove, three-star monster. By shedding its fur it can crush hard rocks very easily." Baal told Ryuha about the information.

"Huh, having no flying ability, fighting a bird-like creature would be difficult." Ryuha.

Of course as he said, moreover he himself did not have any water element techniques that would add to his attacking power. But of course Listh did not think the same as him, because he mastered the element of water. Without making small talk, the woman jumped straight into one of the pigeons that was sitting quietly on one of the twigs of the evergreen tree. By opening his hand the water energy began to gather on top of that palm and instantly formed the form of a water ball. Immediately Listh launched his attack. The pigeon that did not even have time to be surprised was immediately uprooted and fell.

Listh easily dropped one bird. But unfortunately, the other birds were surprised and realized the danger of flying in the air. They see two people who disturb the tranquility of their territory, as animals in groups of course they do not want to leave their territory just like that, even though the number is not up to three digits. As a result, the birds flying around them dropped one by one their feathers.

The fall of the feathers is indeed faster than the feathers in general. However, it was still very easy for Ryuha and Listh to avoid that thing.

Ryuha jumped back and forth, until she realized she had stepped on something. His eyes were wide open when he found out that it was a feather from the Flame Dove that had been lying on the ground for a long time.

Be aware of something more shocking when the wind suddenly shakes the leaves of the tree. Whether there were hundreds or even thousands, feathers with the same shape flew even Ryuha could hardly see around as a result. Soon he put up protection with his hands to protect his eyesight.

A barrage of explosive sounds could be heard clearly in the ears. But he did not feel the slightest pain in his body, which made him dare to open his eyes.

The figure of Listh looks to be standing upright sticking out his hand like he is holding a load. The enormous explosion was successfully dispelled by the woman using a transparent wall made of water energy surrounding their place.

"Huh, looks like you owe me a little." The ledek seems to have no problem.

Ryuha knew that. But in their current situation, he preferred to focus on the opponents flying around them.

The second attack of the Flame Dove began. With a very compact they stabbed Ryuha and Listh like a meteor shower.

Deftly they both dodged, curling their bodies up at a glance to look like a boneless body, further increasing the distance between them.

Not wanting to just dodge, Ryuha started shooting Fiery Blows. Even though at random but with the condition of the Flame Dove flying by gathering, occasionally Fiery Blow exploded about them. Same with Listh, who kept putting out the bird fire with his water balls.

From his storage ring, Ryuha took out a sword of hers. Every bird that shot towards him, he slashed his sword forcefully which instantly uprooted him.

Listh is the same. The woman made a Trident using water energy. In each of his stabs, the birds that shot towards him instantly fell down because their flames were instantly extinguished.

Seeing their numbers drastically reduced, the guts possessed by the Flame Dove herd increasingly receded. Not long after one by one of them also began to give up their territory.

"How, is it necessary to pursue them?" Ask Listh. Ryuha immediately shook her head and replied. "no need. There are already several tens of Flame Dove carcasses here. I think this is enough since I only need one Fire Monster Essence."

"Huft, I don't know why I feel like I'm your maid?! Well, how else, anyway I personally agree to your request."

While dissecting the carcasses surrounding Ryuha said. "This time I ask for your help, of course later on I will pay for it. It looks like I will be your slave later?!"

Hearing him made Listh laugh. "That slave's word, it seems less precise. I was thinking if you could defeat Shun so easily?! But why would my instinct tell me that you're going to be a little caving in the upcoming tournament?!"

"Just your feeling. How could I possibly win against a disciple you've trained for so many years?!"

"Well, I don't care about it." Say Lists. He began to leave the place and said. "When you finish your business here, I'll look for the existence of a natural stormy animal, you still need three right?!"

Just a slight nod Ryuha made, giving a beckoning answer to Listh Carnal who kept moving away.

Time passed by quite quickly, red mega began to be painted on each side in the sky.

"Huh, it's finally over!" Ryuha. In his hand was now three pieces of Fire Essence, three times more than he needed.

Not wanting to waste time, he rushed after Listh who was said to be looking for a nest of Natural Stormed beasts. Aided by the Tempest Wolf's keen sense of smell, they walked following the smell of the tracks left behind by the woman.

"Baal, what do you think that woman's motive is to be willing to take the time to help me?!" Ryuha asked suddenly.

"Hmmm, it's very strange to think about. But I don't know why I feel like he's going to help you." Answer Baal.

"What possible... " Ryuha was reminded of Listh's remark saying that she thought Ryuha would give up at the upcoming tournament.

"I think so too." Baal. "If that's the only motive, it doesn't matter. Soon my identity will also be revealed." Ryuha.

"Huh? What does this have to do with your identity?"

"Hahaha, I don't know, nor do I understand what I just said." Ryuha replied followed by her lullaby laughter.

The smell of Listh left in his footsteps grew even more thickened. Ryuha faintly began to realize where the woman was.

A cave in one of the hills not far in front of him, Ryuha saw the figure of the woman he just talked about was looking at the location right in his mouth. Immediately he sped up his pace after the Tempest Wolf entered into his shadow.

"Ohh, I just wanted to go to your place." Answer Listh. He then gave the thing he was holding to Ryuha. Ryuha's eyebrows suddenly shriveled at the sight of the object.

"It... "

"Emm, that stone is pure jade, one of the favorite foods of the Jade Python." Listh. Of course Ryuha knew about the Jade Python, because it used to be one of the training menus.

"So this cave is a Jade Python nest?!" Ask Ryuha to make sure. Listh nods his head at what Ryuha said.

"Huft, thank goodness then." Ryuha. Listh who saw Ryuha's undaunted attitude with one of the supposedly deadly night predators was slightly widened in his eyes.

"Sounds like you're confident enough?! Good thing, that way I don't have to fight while watching you." His word. They set foot as they entered the cave, the Jade Python nest with little hope of getting what they were looking for. With Ryuha's current time and condition, it would be a great help to her later in life if she gained her essence tonight as well.

Through the only path provided by the cave, the two of them walked down the darkness of the passage only with a burning fire in Ryuha's palm.

"Seeing from the height of the mouth of the cave, I guess this cave will not exceed three hundred meters. I didn't expect that this cave was more than twice as deep as I thought?!" Say Lists. His echoing voice was clearly heard by Ryuha. "I think so too."

Before long, a short hiss sounded from the left. Listh who directed his gaze in that direction saw a sizable hole in the wall of the passageway. It was obvious that it was a snake nest.

Feeling that they are already in the territory of the Jade Python, the two took a stand ready for the fight that was about to start.

From the right, a Jade Python stabbed them. Listh quickly made a needle out of the water energy and attacked him, so the snake bounced off the wall. The needle that pierced through his body made the creature powerless to wake up.

The opening attack that was successfully repelled seemed to have called a herd of snakes coming. From within that darkness, they saw clearly every pair of eyes that glowed red, faintly the body of the tiny, long creature was also visible in their eyes.

"Huh, looks like we've been surrounded?!" Say Lists.

"No! It's exactly what I expected." Listh's remarks were immediately denied by Ryuha who turned out to have a plan. "Facing an animal like a snake, my fire will become even more burning."

Simultaneously, the Jade Python advanced against the enemy they had surrounded.

The flames in the man's hand became bigger, Ryuha directly fired Fiery Blow towards the front so that the snakes that attacked them from that direction immediately burned to death. Behind him, Listh was floating water needles which also directly toppled the swarm of Jade Python that was pouncing on him.

The fierce battle in the dark of the passageway continued, but the snakes were endless as well. They keep coming. Ryuha did not expect that their number would be that much when nesting in the cave.

Ryuha held the fire energy in her hand, which she directly smashed onto the ground surface. The dry land was also hard it immediately got small cracks, precisely around it.

"Jump!" Shouted Ryuha, gesturing to Listh Carnal.

The woman skipped slightly away from Ryuha. Right after, Ryuha unleashed a fierce fire energy into the ground he had cracked.

The snakes don't care about Listh. They continued to dart, simultaneously pouncing on Ryuha who was staying in place.

The overflowing fire energy in the ground exploded, spewing flames from the cracks in the ground around Ryuha. The snakes that pounced on him pierced through the walls of countless layers of fire, so they fell down with ready-to-eat bodies.

The attack that lasted just a few seconds had managed to make the remaining snakes retreat somewhere. Even Listh had not had time to foot on after jumping.

"I think you're just bragging, it turns out you have the ability." Said Listh as he walked over to Ryuha. "I told you before that snakes are one of my daily training menus, so it's nothing."

"There are at least thirty snake carcasses here. I wish I could find three Natural Essence without walking deeper." Ryuha said while starting the body division of the snake carcass.

"Then I will wait for you while breathing for a moment."

Listh somehow went where, Ryuha did not care about it and continued his actions.

A few moments had passed and now there was only the last carcass he had to part. Finding his body that only had ordinary innards, Ryuha let out a long sigh.

"Hows it? Are you done?" Ask Listh who suddenly came.

Ryuha shook his head while throwing a rough breath. "There are only two here. Huh, looks like we should go a little inside."

"no need. Two is enough!" Listh's remark made Ryuha look at him in confusion, before Listh threw the small round stone that he immediately caught.

"Ah, this... "

"I was urinating and accidentally saw a snake peeping. Damn it, I just found out that snakes are perverted creatures."

Hearing that made Ryuha laugh, even though she knew that what she said was a lie. But he did not want to worry about it because there is more important business.

"Since everything has been gathered, now we just need to find a place to start breaking through. I'm sorry I was presumptuous but, I beg you for a little help." Ryuha.

Listh immediately shook his head. He did not expect that after being together for a while, it turned out that Ryuha could behave much better than when they first met.

"No need to bother looking for a place. While searching for this place I've found an empty cave that is perfect for breaking through." Listh.

"Then please help."
