Chapter 18 - Leaving The BeastFilled Forest!
While the passive effect of Greed was taking effect in the background, Ban did not waste any of his time as he checked the other skills.
The [Skill] Possession only has its cooldown shortened into 4 hours from the previous 6 hours. And aside from that, nothing else had changed in its description.
The next skill he inspected was the [Skill] Blood Contractor which the description had supposedly updated.
[Skill] Blood Contractor(N/A):
A Skill provided by the Almighty Summoner System for the future Almighty Summoner.
A 100% chance to contract beasts of the Normal Grade with upto three ranks higher within the same realm.
An 80% chance to contract beasts in Elite Level Up upto three ranks higher within the same realm.
A 50% chance to contract beasts in Lord Level up to three ranks higher within the same realm.
...
A 100% Loyalty from the contracted beasts is guaranteed.
Note: The lower the difference between the beast and the summoner, the higher the chances of contracting.
Due to the [Title] Almighty Summoner's effects, this [Skill] has been strengthened.
All beasts, regardless of Grade will have a 100% chance of being contracted if the said beasts were in the same realm as that of the contractor.
The usage limit of the [Skill] has been reset and updated after Ranking Up!
Usage Limit: 0/5 per day!
]
"Compared to the previous effects, it was definitely strengthened. It now included beasts regardless of level. It didn't state so before and I was actually a little worried that it only pertains about normal grade beasts." Ban thought and heaved a sigh of relief after reading the new description.
What he didn't know was that a certain someone was actually coughing from his statement. 'How picky!'
The usage limit was also increased, 1 because of the Title's effects, and the other one due to him ranking up.
After seeing and 'comprehending' the essence of the [Skill] Ban did not waste any more time as he said,
"System inject this skill's new knowledge into my brain."
[Affirmative! Injection will start in 3… 2… 1…
Complete!]
After that, Ban immediately checked the other skill that was automatically accepted by the Almighty Summoner System.
[Skill] Reinforce(Sky):
Reinforce the defense of your Summon for two Minute!
Effects: Upon activation, the Summon will gain defense incomparable to before.
Duration: 2 Minutes!
Cooldown: 1 hour!
Cannot be stacked!
Due to the [Title] Almighty Summoner's effect, this skill has been strengthened.
Duration: 4 Minutes!
Cooldown: 30 Minutes!
Could be stacked on the same Summon up to two times.

"Jeez… I've obtained another cheat [Skill]." Ban rejoiced upon reading the skill's description.
Ten minutes passed by and Ban's injury had now healed and his stamina fully recovered.
He clenched his fist strongly before punching the body of the Night Worm that was lying in front of him
His fist penetrated the Night Worm's body instantly. However, he could tell that even though he had already become stronger, the state that he was in before when he used little Eva's [Skill] Enrage was more stronger compared to the current strength he just exhibited.
Ban now understands why the Night Worm felt threatened before forcing it to use its desperate skill immediately.
As his injury was now fully healed, Ban chose to cancel the [Skill] Possession to see how Eva was doing.
He did not do it before as he was afraid that some trouble might come up while the both of them are in the same state.
And now that he had already recovered, at least he could now protect little Eva if she's still in a pained state.
"Come out now, little Eva!" He ordered as his forehead glowed before a tiny figure emerged from it.
And unlike what Ban was expecting, the little figure was actually lively and was not in pain.
'Maybe it's also because she Ranked Up?' He reasoned.
"How are you little Eva?" Ban asked in concern.
He knew that he managed to activate the [Skill] Possession before any Mucus could reach her body. He just asked again to make sure.
Krrr! Krrrr! Krrr!
Little Eva replied joyfully as she raised her two front hands(legs) up in the air before waving it energetically.
"Good to know!" Ban heaves a sigh of relief upon hearing her confirmation.
"Let's get out of here before the other beasts spot us!" Ban spoke as he slowly got up.
However, another row of words suddenly halted his movements.
[Your Contracted Beast has ranked up, and due to the title effects, your [Item] Dimensional Storage's space has been doubled.
]
"Oh, I remember I still have the [Item] reward from ranking up! I should check it first…" Ban looked around his now dark surroundings, to make sure no other beast was present.
After a while, he finally decided to search for a safe spot first before checking it.
"Let's go, little Eva!" Ban said as he finally stood up from the ground.
Little Eva hops on his shoulder and laid comfortably around his neck.
Although they no longer need to run as they have already finished the mission unintentionally, Ban still decided to run at a swift speed to get out of the Beast-Filled forest, Lagom already.Th.ê most uptod/at𝓮 n𝒐vels a/re published on n(0)velbj)n(.)c/o/m
Even though they have already become an F-Apprentice Rank, Ban thought that it was better to not get overconfident, as it might turn into arrogance.
After a few minutes of running, Ban and Eva finally got out of Lagom forest.
After another minute of running, Ban finally saw the road that leads to the city.
He felt elated and glad as it meant that there would be fewer worries now. The roads are protected by E-Elite Ranked guards after all.
And just as he was slowly stepping on the road, he suddenly saw a source of light in the distance moving closer towards him in every second that passed by.
"Jeez… Isn't that…"
