My Summons Are Mythical Beasts

[You have killed a Bronze Grade-Bronze Star 5, Crimson Monitor Lizard (100%): You gained 2278.13 XP]

[Experience points reached the limit. You have ranked up!]

[You received a grimoire page!]

Lucas was elated to see the new logs.

After his grimoire evolved to Iron Grade, the amount of experience points he was receiving had been amounting to thousands, except for the Iron-Horned Stag and the beast they killed that was a lower rank compared to Lucas.

The higher the level difference, the higher the amount of experience points he would receive as well. It was not strange that he received more than two thousand experience points after Spot killed the Bronze Grade-Bronze Star 5 Crimson Monitor Lizard.

The new grimoire page was also another surprise for Lucas.

He had been thinking about contracting a utility beast after seeing the Gobbling Toad, so he was quite excited upon receiving this new grimoire page.

Glancing down, Lucas read the logs regarding his newly acquired skill.

[You advanced to Bronze Star 1! You obtained Unhindered Stealth skill from your contracted beast, Mirage Worm!]

Seeing the skill he obtained, Lucas could not help but pause in his tracks.

His eyes widened in surprise as he clenched his fists in excitement.

'Yes! It's actually this!'

With his previous luck of obtaining the Gentle Gaze skill, Lucas actually did not have high hopes of obtaining the System-inherited skills this time around.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Previously, there was a fifty-fifty chance of obtaining the System-inherited skills, as Spot at that time only had Gentle Gaze and the Hellhound Manifestation skill. However, due to his luck, he still ended up getting the Gentle Gaze.

This time, aside from the fact that he now has another summon, the skills at Spot disposal were also incomparable to the time Lucas ranked up to Iron Star 1; hence, Lucas harbored little hope about obtaining any of the two System-inherited skills.

He was already defeated in terms of probability alone, not to mention that his luck has been quite recent.

Seeing that he had obtained the System-inherited skill, Unhindered Stealth, though, Lucas could not help but think that all his luck was poured out just for this moment to happen.

Although happy, he was also worried about the upcoming bad luck he might encounter.

Suppressing his tumultuous emotions, Lucas hurriedly stared at the skill and read its description.

[Unhindered Stealth: Temporarily enter a sublime state of being one with the surroundings to hide from the perception of others. Through the connection with the surroundings, the user could choose to hide from the others and hide others from others at will. Consumes 10 Spiritual Energy per second; the more entities you bring in this state, the more Spiritual Energy will be consumed per second.]

Lucas nodded at the description of the skill, seeing that it was very familiar.

Although the Spiritual Energy consumption was great, he found it normal, as this was indeed an overpowered skill that came from the System.

Who knew what kind of beast this skill originally came from?

Speaking of Spiritual Energy, now that he has ranked up to Bronze Star 1, his Spiritual Energy should have increased considerably as well.

Glancing up, he scrutinized the new details that appeared on his profile page, noticing significant changes compared to before.

[Name: Lucas Valen

Age: 17

Grimoire Grade: Iron

Grimoire Talent: Reduction

Rank: Bronze Star 1 (141.91/4250)

Spiritual Energy: 223/232

Beasts: Gentle Dog, Mirage Worm]

The most notable change was, of course, his new rank, which was now at Bronze Star 1.

The amount of experience points needed to advance to the next rank—Bronze Star 2—was less compared to when he was advancing from Iron Star 9 to Bronze Star 1.

As it was a major rank breakthrough, it was naturally higher compared to when one advances just a minor rank.

Lucas reckoned that by the time he reached Bronze Star 2, the amount he would need to advance further would be more than the amount he needed to break through to a major rank.

Glancing down, Lucas noted the number of Spiritual Energy he currently has.

Just like he expected, now that he was already an Iron Grade grimoire user and a Bronze Star summoner, the increase in his Spiritual Energy was indeed more potent than the last.

Before his grimoire evolved, every time he ranked up, his Spiritual Energy would only increase by a single digit. Now, not only had it increased by two digits, the degree was even more substantial, totaling an increase of thirty Spiritual Energy points.

With a quick count, Lucas determined that with his current Spiritual Energy, he would only be able to maintain the Unhindered Stealth skill for twenty-three seconds.

'Twenty-three seconds…'

Recalling that even the Mirage Worm could maintain it for more than a minute even with him and Spot tagging along, Lucas could not help but curse inwardly.

'Damn it! I'm even inferior to my own worm.'

Nevertheless, the Unhindered Stealth was still a huge boost to his capabilities.

In a desperate battle, even one second could turn the battle around in a jiffy. Anyway, as long as he continues to improve his rank, his Spiritual Energy would also increase, allowing him to maintain the Unhindered Stealth for a long period of time.

Sighing, Lucas proceeded further and soon saw the corpse of the Crimson Monitor Lizard.

The Crimson Monitor Lizard was also a massive beast. Its length from its snout all the way to its tail was around five meters. The width of its body was about a meter. At its back were protruding crimson scales and spikes.

There was some damage on its crimson scales, while a long claw wound could be seen around its nape.

With one glance, one would be able to tell that Spot had not held back when he fought the Crimson Monitor Lizard earlier.

Knowing that there were women in this group, he was about to ask them if they still had the nerve to eat the beast when it was essentially an overgrown lizard.

He himself has no problem eating it, but who knows if the others were as broadminded as he was when it comes to such things?

However, the moment he turned around and saw their expressions, Lucas knew that he did not have to ask further.
