Chapter 101 - Where Can I Find The Beasts

"What do you need my help with?" Melissa asked.

Seeing the look on Melissa's face, Devon also became serious, "Have the beasts in the world gone extinct?" Devon said, he sat on the chair opposite Melissa.

For some reason, Melissa became silent for about five minutes after listening to Devon's question.

"Why do you want to know?" Melissa couldn't think of any reason why Devon would ask her such a question. What he wanted was the power to kill his father, so what does that have to do with the beasts.

"Melissa... Are you going to tell me or not?" Devon said, this aunt of his was meddlesome, he would prefer her not knowing what he was up to, or else she wouldn't let him be.

Devon wasn't pleased with her behavior, this had to be the first time he has asked her for something and when he finally did, she wasn't willing to tell him..

No wonder the relationship between the two of them was sour.

Melissa seemed to have realized the situation, she heaved a long sigh before she began talking.

"You must keep this a secret, cause if it gets out and people learn it came from you, then even Clifford won't be able to save you this time around." Melissa's face became even more serious as she said each word.

"The beasts didn't go extinct, but they were banished from the three worlds and never to be seen again."

Devon was stunned, if it were one of the beast clan that was banished then it was acceptable, however, it was all the beasts that got banished from the three worlds.

The beasts had a tiny world similar to that of earth and also had their peak expert, so how could they be chased out of their home like dogs.

Only experts who stood at the peak of the world and at attained that extraordinary realm was capable of such. "So experts at the Demi-god realm exist," Devon mumbled in a low voice.

If it wasn't experts at the Demi-god realm, Devon couldn't think of any other realm expert capable of possessing enormous power that was to send all the beasts out of the worlds.

A smile appeared on Devon's face, as he knew that with the strength he was acquiring every day, only time would tell before he was able to get his hand on those expert at that realm.

Devon licked his lips in clear anticipation of what the future of that Demi-god expert was.

"Why were the beasts banished out from the worlds?" Devon inquired, though he knew she wasn't going to tell him, Devon still asked anyway.

Just as expected, Melissa shooked her head, "You don't have to know.... Is that all, or there's something else." Melissa said.

"Where can I find them?" Devon said. Beating around the bush wasn't going to lead to anywhere with Melissa, so Devon went straight to the point.

Melissa frowned deeply, her mind wasn't at rest anymore, before she knew her nephew was up to something dangerous, however, she doubted the possibility, but this confirmed everything.

She was aware that he wanted to avenge the death of his mother by killing Clifford, and at the moment he wanted power the most. However, what does that have to do with beasts whereabouts.

"What do you need the beasts for?" Melissa replied to him with a question. She couldn't think of any reasons why her nephew would want to know about the beasts, as they won't help him in getting the strength he needed.

Except.....Suddenly two words popped into Melissa's head, and she immediately figured what he needed them for.

"Do you want to die... The blood essence of the beasts would kill you." Melissa had already vanished from where she was.

She grabbed Devon by the neck off the chair and slammed him towards the wall of the room, cracks appeared on the wall, it was as though a heavy boulder was slammed against it.

What kind of effect did the blood essence of these beasts have that would make Melissa reacts this way.

The blood essence was the fastest way in the world for both humans and demons to gain powers. The blood essence was the accumulated life force the beasts had acquired in their entire life.

It was undisputed as the fastest way to gain strength.

There isn't a good thing that didn't have a bad side, the same way the blood essence of the beasts could grant either humans and demons powers beyond their ability, it could also take it away from them.

It was said that the blood essence of the beasts had formed a soul. So, when a human or demon absorbs the blood essence, he or she could either get swallowed or become devoured by the soul.

The soul wasn't ordinary in any aspect, as the soul formed from the blood essence of a saint realm beasts would have attained at least the blue soul stage.

Indeed, everything had its cost.

The blood essence was also the accumulated knowledge and experience a beast had gained in its life. The beast would give their blood essence to their most talented descendant, it was with this blood essence that would gove the beasts access their bloodline ability

One thing that made the beasts still stand was the presence of this blood essence.

Without the blood essence, the beasts would have plunged down and eventually cease to exist. The blood essence was extremely useful not only to the beasts but even to humans and demons.

If a human or demon was capable of resisting the havoc and wrath of the blood essence, then he or she would gain the bloodline ability of that beast.

Ever wondered if the blood essence was that useful to the humans and demons, why don't their just hunt them all down since they were already banished.

Only beasts who had attained the Saint realm were capable of possessing their blood essence.

None of the powers in the three worlds were crazy enough to attack a beast at the saint realm because of its blood essence. It was similar to just seeking death very fast.

With all the resources and power the big three had in the underground world, they won't dare make trouble for a beast at the Saint realm. If the big three could make way, then what did those clans and sects have to do?

Though a saint realm beast was beneath the big three, the big three wouldn't attack the beast, at least not until they discovered something worthy of them fighting for.

Melissa's reaction after figuring out her nephew was looking for the blood essence of beasts was within expectation.

The beast he was going for wasn't a heaven realm beast or a Transcendental realm beast, rather it was at the saint realm.

That was already an impossible thing to do, the beasts would never give their blood essence to the race who had banished them from the world. Truthfully, the hate the beasts had for humans was even more horrifying than that of the demons.

It was to the point that if the beasts ever return to the world, their first goal would be to annihilate all the humans in the world.

And if by a stroke of luck he manages to acquire their blood essence would he be able to handle the havoc of the beast's soul without any assistance.

The wrath of a soul at the blue soul stage was something that even experts at the Demi-god realm would have to take him seriously, or else they could lose their lives during the battle against the soul of the blood essence.

Even though they hated each other to the core, Melissa still hoped in her heart that a day would come whereby he could let go of his hate and live a peaceful life.

"I forbid you from looking for the blood essence of the beasts," Melissa said, the concern in her eyes was very evident.

Devon didn't struggle against her grip on him, he peered deep into Melissa's eyes just like she was doing to him. It was as if they were in an eye competition.

"I won't look for any blood essence from the beasts," Devon said with a slight smile on his face.

He knew how this aunt of his was, if he didn't promise her then she wouldn't tell him and would immediately send him out of here.

Even after he had said those words Melissa still didn't let go of her grip on him better still she held him even tighter, "Devon Reid! You are a member of that house, so you must know what it means to give someone his word."

Devon's face became stiff as he heard, those words from Melissa. "My word is my bond," Devon mumbled as he remembered the saying of that house.

Melissa released her grip on Devon, she still stood in front of him, "The ominous land." Melissa said, she then turned around.

However, before she could completely turn around, she felt a hand touch hers and pull her forward.
