The Game Rune System

Chapter 67: Pet Game Rune

The Tiger Leader let out bright light from his sharp teeth that were like two swords falling onto Tetsuya!

An immense power could be felt from these as even Tetsuya felt a little goosebumps on his body!

He smiled widely, then raised his wooden sword horizontally.

Boom!

A human and the beast created a small explosion that halted other battles momentarily! Their clash also lasted a little, but both Tetsuya and the beast had enough time to look deeply into each other's eyes.

He then pushed the beast away and rushed forward before it could land on its paws.

"Aren't you a little too light?" Tetsuya sneered, his sword leaving vertical slash.

This slash got stopped by earth stones that escaped from the beast leader's mouth. It seemed like this beast had much more abilities than the usual Tooth Tiger!

Nonetheless, its senses began to alarm loudly within.

It wasn't because the slash easily tore through the stones, but because those stones fell heavily onto the ground.

The stones dropped so fast that the beast itself blinked a few times before avoiding Tetsuya's next slash.

It dug through the ground, then sneakily pounced at Tetsuya from behind.

"I have to get rid of this ability." Tetsuya didn't lose his composure. He just turned around swiftly, then exchanged another close contact with the beast.

His eyes then shone brightly with a sharp glint.

In the past, it would be Ego Eyes, but Tetsuya's past two years changed the skill into Evil Eyes. Those were more charming and surely lady-killing, but for the enemies, it was greatly different.

It increased jealousy as per Evil Charming Prince's route and also increased Tetsuya's sharp aura which comes from the sword.

In a nutshell, it was still taunt but the method and feelings that came together with it were different.

The beast growled, then mixed both its sharp teeth and stones. Its jaw never closed as it continued to spit out bigger earth stones as the time passed.

It even began to use more of its paws!

However, the leader hadn't been the only one to use the skills.

Using Calm River Rune from Milady Yuhi, Tetsuya had been influencing everything that was going onto him. He made the heavy stones be scattered on the ground which became a problem for the beast later on!

One careless step would bring a huge wound onto its paw.

Furthermore, Tetsuya's sword always clashed with the long teeth, making it heavier as if the ocean began to swarm those!

ROAAAAAR!

As the beast's alarms continued to scream within it, it let out thunderous roar that shook the whole forest.

Beneath its paws, the huge platform began to raise up!

It raised the beast so far away that Tetsuya's Evil eyes had been broken by it!

Tetsuya wasn't prepared for such a show, "I don't like climbing." He looked at the beast from below, his eyes soon seeing its sneer.

It seemed to react to his words as the roar began to shatter the earth pillar. This pillar began to break into heavy chunks that fell straight onto the game master.

"Scatter!" Tetsuya first called out his minions and gave a new order. Following this order, Skylar also distanced herself, then her eyes looked at Tetsuya who should be buried within the chunks of earth!

She didn't know whether he was alive or not, but if he really got killed, then her fate would be the same!

Skylar unconsciously raised her eyes up and saw that there was falling Tooth Tiger And above this Tooth Tiger, Tetsuya had mounted it with a sword deeply lodged in its back! A blood had been profusely escaping from its body as more than half of its body already got stained by it.

Her disbelief was clear!

[Game Master's Swordsman Steps.]

It was an E skill that used to be the Sovereign Throne! Right now, it was just steps that allowed Tetsuya to seize control over his enemies' area. He appeared behind the leader before its chunks could swallow him, then the sword tore through its weak point.

The beast got seized so easily that other tigers didn't know how to react.

After their leader hit the ground heavily, Tetsuya's minion soldiers already began to go after them!

"What are you doing, Skylar? Get more experience." She had level to raise, so it was both an axe experience and her body one.

Reacting to these words belatedly, Skylar just let out, "Ah," Then rushed to help the minions. Her axe could easily sever through her enemies as Tetsuya began to give more orders to soldiers around her.

In a way, it was like he had been fighting together with Skylar.

But Tetsuya used this change to properly seize the tiger's body! He hid it within his inventory, then asked Ashley about her progress, "I think we can give this option to Rainbow Adventurers?"

"Yes! We can make small dimensions within their runes and make them use this as inventory through Game Rune! If someone were to steal the rune, then this person wouldn't be able to use inventory as he wouldn't know how. But it would be different if someone who had knowledge about dimension could" Ashley replied.

"Alright This body and all those tigers We will make a good profit out of these! For today, it's enough." Tetsuya allowed Skylar to hunt more and get the experience as the numbers appearing around her stats made her genuinely happy.

She also liked to be stronger than the rumored Tigers who were known to be a dangerous threat to human's lives!

He just eyed her enjoying this show, then both of them returned to the city through carriage.

In the meantime, the siblings had woken up.

Both of them promptly stood up from the bed, seeing the sun running away from the sky! They knew that they had overslept and small fear began to sprout within their hearts.

Did they really just sleep for this long and neglected their responsibilities?

Millia and Marre rushed away from their houses to the main room where the message for them was left.

Though it was always hard for them to read, Tetsuya's handwriting and simple words appeased their hearts as he had allowed them to sleep and enjoy the beds!

"It must've been also Mrs. Skylar's help! I hope she is okay alone on the hunt." Millia spoke, a little worried about the lady who got betrayed by her teammates.

Her brother nodded while also worried a little, "Mr. Narashi is strong, but he feels like a person who would do rash and dangerous things."

"Eh? Really? That's how you felt?" Millia spoke with clear surprise on her face.

Her brother just nodded, then the duo decided to not neglect their duties anymore. For now, the siblings began to clean up the whole house starting from the main room.

They did it relatively quickly, so Tetsuya and Skylar had yet to return!

"We should train our bodies then!" Millia suggested.

She went onto the floor and began to make pushups, but she ended up tired after around fifteen. Her brother was better, but he had also lost around thirty or so.

They had been the worst mercenaries for all these years and their runes were nothing more than just parts of the weakest ones.

It was luck that they managed to get those as some mercenaries literally threw these away!

Though there was one thing that the siblings didn't lack, resolution! Even if their bodies hurt, they did their best to train other parts of their bodies, even if it was all without proper measures taken beforehand such as warm-up

Their house cleaning could be warm-up though, but they also were doing some training methods wrongly.

Nonetheless, Tetsuya and Skylar finally returned to the house!

Hearing the doors opening, both siblings stood up and did their best to keep their backs straight despite muscles screaming with pain.

Their eyes blinked when they noticed that Skylar had been all smiles despite her clothes torn in a few places. She even had small wounds around, but that smile was as if she had gotten the world treasure!

Even 'Mr. Narashi' was smiling widely as if he had gotten even better treasure.

"Oh, what is this smell? A smell of training?" Tetsuya laughed which made both siblings blush deeply.

He took the sofa for himself, then looked at the siblings, "Did you sleep well?"

The siblings nodded a few times, bringing a laughter out of Tetsuya. His partner was also laughing within him.

He then passed the game rune system through handshake, "I have been thinking of Pet Game Rune for you two."

"Pet Game Rune?" Both siblings asked while tilting their heads.

This Pet Game Rune was actually Ashley's idea. She just couldn't stop thinking of these siblings as cute and wanted them to have a lot of trustworthy friends.

Ashley also never said it out loud, but those siblings were like two cute animals for her too.

Because of that, she thought that pet game rune would be the best for them where both of them would get quests related to pet care! It was more like beast companion rune, but Ashley already decided on its name.

"Yes, you will have a lot of new friends to take care about" Tetsuya repeated Ashley's words, then summoned the Tooth Tiger body out of his inventory. He wanted to put it on the table and get resources out of it such as eyes.

But the appearance of this beast frightened the siblings to the death.

Boom Boom

Both of them fell onto the floor after losing their consciousness.
