Divine Beast Tamer

Ronald was amazed upon seeing the stats of his new beast, though it would be perfect if it has an agility of above or equal to 100 points. Having that kind of insane strength was very scary, only if it had the agility that would match its strength.

At this moment, Ronald realized that what his mother said about ants were true.

As Ronald was thinking about the past, a sudden thought had entered his mind, 'What if I had devoured this ant beast and had not tamed it, I would have a chance to get this skill, then I would be the strongest human living on earth.'

Ronald was so caught in his imaginations that he didn't even notice that the queen ant had already recovered from its unconscious state.

***

Upon recovering from her unconscious state, the first thing she saw was Ronald's face which was having a weird expression as he indulged in his own imaginations. The ant queen didn't know why, but she felt creepy upon seeing Ronald's expression, so, she just stayed silent and didn't move. But at this time she felt that something touched her abdomen, and so she turned around to see what was or who was touching her, but what she saw terrified her very much.

In front of her was Freya, who was looking at her abdomen with sparkling eyes.

If Freya saw this before her mutation, she wouldn't be this attracted. But after her mutation, her dragon bloodline had been enhanced by a great margin, causing her to inherit one of a dragon's personality, and that was their obsession with shiny objects or things.

In this world, almost all dragons liked to collect shiny objects, some can be considered treasures while others are only decorative items that are shiny enough to catch their attention, and the queen ant's abdomen really caught Freya's attention.

Before the queen ant left her colony and became a queen, everyday, she would wipe her abdomen clean of any dust or any elements of the soil, this was also her only hobby and the only thing she can do in the colony aside from flying.

Elite ants, male or female, didn't really have a work to do in a colony, as their only task was to mate with the queen or find a mate that would make them queens and create their own colony. Their only purpose in life was to spread their species in each part of the world and conquer every land there is.

As she had nothing to do, she always used her time to clean her abdomen until it became shiny, which caused her to be the most beautiful ant in the colony she belonged to. Even during their yearly nuptial flight, where elite ants of their species all over the world will meet in a place and mate, many male elite ants chased after her skirts.

Her abdomen became her beauty and pride, but now she learned a lesson, being beautiful and eye-catching doesn't always bring good situations, they may also bring disaster. Unless if she was strong enough to protect herself from those disasters that would occur, but she clearly knew how strong Freya was, if not for her mercy, she would have been dead by now.

At this time, as she was quietly and carefully observing Freya, who was again behind her looking and poking on her abdomen, she clearly noticed the beast lord ranked aura that was being emitted out of Freya's little body.

Feeling Freya's aura, she decided to stay low for now, and avoid any conflict with Freya.

After some time, Ronald came back to his senses.

"Hmmm... You need a name."

Ronald said as he looked at the giant queen ant.

"Let me think for a second."

"What about Anteva?"

Ronald asked the giant queen ant, though he didn't expect that she would reply to him, as she was only a spirit beast.

But contrary to his expectations, the queen ant replied with a voice of a 5 yr old female child, Ronald was slightly surprised by this.

"You can talk?" Ronald asked the giant queen ant again but at that moment a notification popped-up in front of him.

- Congratulations, Anteva learned the skill .

"After our evolution, aside from the skills that we got after it, we will instinctively learn 2 skills, which are and , though I can only start learning command if I had 50 worker minions."

"Woah, that is amazing. Even Freya didn't know how to speak yet."

Ronald said with amazement, but as he was saying something, Freya that was just looking at Anteva's abdomen a moment ago, did something unexpected to Ronald.

"I... I... talk..."

Ronald was very surprised when he heard that Freya spoke. He didn't know that Freya knew how to talk, though not that good, an intelligent being could still understand what she was talking about.

"When did you learn how to speak?"

Ronald asked Freya, but this time, it was not Freya who replied to him, it was Luna.

"It was after she finished her mutation."

"Oh. Luna, your awake?"

"When did I sleep?"

"I thought you were sleeping when you kept yourself quiet even when I ask you about some things."

"I wasn't sleeping, the questions you asked, are sometimes idiotic, so I didn't bother to answer it. You'll know the answer anyway when the time comes."

"..."

Ronald and Luna talked a lot of things for sometime before he focused his attention at Anteva.

Anteva was currently looking weirdly at Ronald, though she became Ronald's tamed beasts, she couldn't hear Luna's voice. Therefore, what she saw was Ronald talking to himself and not with Luna or someone else.

Freya who knew about Luna's existence also didn't mind to explain to her, as after she let Ronald knew that she can also talk, she came back at staring and touching Anteva's abdomen, even sometimes rubbing her cute face on it.

"Uhmm, let me see how your skill works. Hmm... Let's start with minion production."

"Okay."

After Anteva replied to Ronald, she immediately used her skill and then her abdomen enlarged, after some time a white egg came out.

After the egg came out, it immediately grew bigger and bigger, and after some time a white leg came out of it piercing the egg from the inside then cut an opening on the egg, after the cut was big enough a white ant came out of the egg.

"This is a worker ant, we still need to wait for 2 more hours for it to harden itself, as for now, it was still too weak to start moving."

Ronald said as he sat on the ground while observing the worker minion that was hardening.

"I also found it weird, I traveled the whole forest and never did I find a place that was so barren of beasts like this area, at first I thought I was just lucky to find this place, but now I realized, it isn't a barren place. The beasts that were living here were currently hiding somewhere."

Anteva said as she looked with deep respect to Freya, if a beast lord ranked beast was hunting in an area with a lord, the lord of that area would immediately come and kill it. They had already stayed in this area for some time, but no beast lord ranked beast came, so she concluded that Freya and Ronald killed the lord in this area.
