Description: A ring filled with blood mana. By using the skill hidden in the ring the user will be able to summon anywhere from 1 to 3 blood whips that can either attack nearby enemies or defend the user. Each time a whip is destroyed the user can regenerate it by expending mana.

"Hmm, well, who wants this?" Reign looks back and asks the gang, everyone looks away and pretends not to hear him.

Yeah right!

Who would want to be able to summon freaking tentacles that defend you and attack enemies, that's just super weird. With nobody wanting the ring Reign shrugs his shoulders before putting it on his finger.

"Oh right, we never asked this, system, how many rings can we equip?" Reign suddenly asks, so far none of them had more than two rings equipped, they never really needed to ask the system something like that.

[A player can have 4 rings equipped at once, there exist special methods to allow for more though. ]

"I guess we can't know those special methods?"

[ Correct, I am not allowed to tell you what they are. ]

"Hey, at least we know they exist, alright, let's move guys, I'm pretty sure that some more enemies will show up here, we made quite a commotion after all," Reign says as he turns around, the others all nod their heads in agreement as they slowly move to another area. The place they previously fought the elk was quickly surrounded by a couple of monsters who were all looking at the elk's corpse with an intense hunger in their eyes, soon they all started fighting, there was not enough meat for everyone, so some, of course, had to die in order for the others to be satisfied.

Beast was again checking the sky with his eagle, he had to be careful around here however as there were other flying monsters that could attack the eagle, most of which were of a higher level compared to it.

Slowly the eagle cruised through the sky as Beast was using its eyes to look for suitable enemies to fight against and tame. He suddenly saw a pack of lions, one male lion with three females and five cubs. The lions were sitting down on the ground as the cubs played around, of course calling them cubs was weird as they were about 1 meter long.

The male lion suddenly got up and started walking in a direction, the cubs followed their father before he roared a bit, prompting the little ones to go back to their mothers. Beast followed him with the eagle, the lion seemed to be looking for prey to hunt. Some time passed and the lion was still moving, slowly he was coming closer to them.

" We have a lion coming our way, what do you think, should we try it?" Beast asks the others as he looks at them, one problem with them trying to find a beast for him to tame here was that the higher level the beast was, the lower a chance of succeeding, till now Beast had only tamed animals that were lower in level compared to him, never did he succeed in taming one that was of a higher level, no matter how many times he tried.

He never showed it, but he has been quite worried for the last couple of days, it was like Wolf had previously said, his ability was one that was quite useful in the beginning, but the more time passed the weaker Beast felt compared to the others. His ability barely gave him any bonus attribute points, it was to be expected however as having multiple beasts and bonus attributes would truly make it overpowered, but still, compared to the others he felt like he was the weakest, even Laura who joined them recently was catching up to him.

His beasts were strong, but he knew that if he ever fought someone on the level of his teammates, they wouldn't be enough to allow him to win, hell, Reign's speed was far above anyone else, he could just close in and decapitate him in a matter of seconds.

So yes, Beast has been quite worried about the future, he didn't want to hold his teammates back, right now he was still strong and was able to help out, but in the future, if he didn't improve he would be quite weaker compared to them.

The lion approached their location as everyone hid, they were going to do things differently this time, the elk showed them that trying to bring it down without doing any serious injuries was almost impossible.

The lion slowly enters their encirclement as it sniffs the air, he could feel something wrong, suddenly it looks up as Beast's eagle was flying right above it, with a screech the eagle dives down and fires a small bolt of lightning towards the lion that was unable to dodge in time. The lightning bolt doesn't do a lot of damage, it merely shocks the animal, making it unable to move for a few seconds, but those few seconds was all the party needed.

Reign emerges from the grass as he stabs his sword through the lion's side, the blue lightning immediately shocks the poor animal more while he punches it from the side. Greenie, Wolf, Tank, and the others emerge as well and immediately launch fierce attacks towards the wolf that growled in anger.

The powerful skills hit the lion and blood immediately spurts from his many wounds, Shadow uses his ability to create spikes that impale the lion's legs while Laura jumps high in the air, performing an axe kick filled with her demonic energy, she manages to kick the lion on the head and the animal's eyes immediately start spinning from the powerful blow.

Suddenly the lion roars powerfully as a shockwave actually blows them all back, a majestic golden light coats the lion as his injuries slowly heal while his body grows larger. The now 3-meter tall lion looks at the party with hatred as he prepares to attack them.

"Dammit, this one went berserk as well, what fcking luck!" Shadow curses as he looks at the lion with an angry expression.

"No, this isn't it, it seems it used a skill or an ability of some kind." Reign calmly says as he looks at the lion, even though the lion looked perfectly healthy now with most of its injuries healed he could still feel the mana in it, the lion's mana was almost depleted thanks to the barrage of attacks they sent its way, Reign knew that even though the lion looked powerful now, it was already on its last leg.

"Reign, everyone, I have a favor to ask." Beast suddenly speaks as he slowly walks towards the lion who looked at him with a weird gaze.

"Yo Beastie, what are you doing so close, quickly, go back!" Tank warns Beast as he runs towards him.

"Let me tame it now." Beast looks at Reign with a resolute gaze, he didn't want to only rely on them for taming his animals, he didn't know why, but something deep inside of him was telling him to tame the lion right now, alone.

"Beast." Reign looks at his friend, he had never seen Beast so resolute before, he knew that his mind was set, he suddenly shakes his head while smiling, "If that's your wish, who are we to stop you?"

"Thank you."

"What, Reign, why are you letting him do this?!" Tank suddenly shouts out as he looks at Reign and Beast.

"Everyone, just use your mana to pressure the lion, we don't want it running away." Reign calmly states as he sits down on a nearby rock while looking at the lion.

Beast slowly walked towards the huge animal as he could feel his ability being used to its max, the lion looked at him weirdly as it growled at him, warning him to back off.

"Don't be scared," Beast whispers as he inches closer to the huge beast, for some reason he wasn't scared, even though the lion could probably kill him in seconds if it wished, Beast wasn't scared of it, he even dropped his bow and every weapon he had while walking towards it.

The lion was now confused, why was this small creature coming to him without any hostility, all of them attacked it and tried to kill it previously, and now they were just standing while this one was approaching it. The lion felt confused as it felt no danger from Beast, for some reason he didn't even feel any hatred towards him, the feeling he gave off was the same as he was an old friend coming to see him.

The lion lowers its head a bit as it looks at Beast, they were now only half a meter apart. Beast slowly extends his arm in an attempt to touch the animal before the lion suddenly roared. He brought his paw up as he suddenly attacked Beast. The others were all alarmed as Reign was already using his lightning, he was ready to charge and save Beast at any moment.

"Don't move!" Beast yells to them as he looks the lion straight in its eyes as the giant paw was coming down on his head.

Swish

The paw stopped right above his head as a fierce wind was blown around him. The lion suddenly brings his paw back as he actually brings his head to Beast's before licking him, Beast laughs before petting the animal that was slowly returning to its original size.

"Nice to meet you too." Beast smiles as he looks at the friendly animal.
