Chapter 371 The Warning Of A Familiar

Chapter 371 The Warning Of A Familiar

"[Divine Beast Summon]."

Rey's voice echoed throughout the vast room of the 99th Floor, as he made a wide smile.

His heart kept racing for some reason, and even though he didn't need to say the name of the Skill to activate it, he found himself declaring it very boldly.

Perhaps a part of him wanted Ater to hear it.

As expected, after he activated the Skill, a System Window appeared in front of him.

[Select Category Of Summon]

~Divine Tier (SS)~

~Absolute Tier (S)~

~Grand Tier (A)~

~Lesser Tiers (B - C)~

[Warning: You are not a Tamer, so unless you have a Skill that can subdue the Beast you are Summoning, there will be no way to control it.]

[End Of Information]

His smile grew wider.

"Brings back old memories, doesn't it?" Rey muttered, partially talking to Ater, who watched from in front of him.

The black suited Familiar sat in midair and observed the entire process.

His face was a lull, so Rey couldn't properly see what he was thinking of. Of course, due to their bond, he knew Ater was still bothered about the whole thing.

'Shouldn't you be happy about the growth of your Master?' Rey?wondered to himself, eventually shrugging it off.

"I wonder if I should go for the Divine Tier this time..." A broader smile formed on his face.

Rey's [Absolute Dominion] Skill was the replacement for [Bonding], and it allowed him to make as many beings his Familiar as long as they were S-Tier entities or lower.

'Of course, Beasts also apply to this equation.'

The problem was that Divine Beasts were a Tier above that, so it would be impossible to control a Beast of that level if it was summoned.

'I'm not seriously considering it, but I could at least try, right? If it misbehaves, I have SS-Tier Skills I can use to subdue or even kill it.'

Rey's excitement was growing even higher.

"I mean... if we both work together, maybe we can subjugate the Beast, and I can—"

"No, Master." Ater's response was curt.

"No. That's not it. You most certainly have enough Mana to do so." Ater sighed, shaking his head a little as he spoke.

"The problem is that you would have no means to defeat it."

Rey didn't understand why Ater was speaking this way. Perhaps his Familiar greatly underestimated his strength.

"I have six Divine-Tier Skills, you know?"

"I am well aware. However, all of those won't be enough when facing a Beast in that category—at least, if you summon the real thing."

Rey felt even more confused.

'Is he saying Divine-Tier Skills won't suffice for a Divine-Tier Beast?'

"Master, what I am saying is simple..." Ater interrupted Rey's thoughts with his calm words.

"If a proper Divine Beast is summoned to this world, it will spell the end for everything you know and love. Including yourself."

Ater was a Beast himself, so Rey had to grant some credence to his words. Perhaps he knew something he didn't know about Beasts.

'I should trust his words...' His thoughts trailed as a sigh escaped his lips.

"Fine. I won't summon a Divine-Tier Beast."

"Maybe don't summon any at all."

"Don't push your luck."

"O-okay..."

Rey clenched his fist in annoyance, with a tinge of frustration. He really wanted to try seeing the full extent of the Skill.

It seemed Ater noticed that.

"Don't worry, Master. In the fullness of time, even Divine Beasts would beg to be your slaves."

Thanks for reading!

I wonder what the big deal is about Divine Beasts is.

Who has any theory?
