Leo sighed as he made the payment of 700 MP.

At this point he wasn’t sure if the information that he would obtain would be worth the price or not, but Dumpy had surprised him sufficiently uptil now for him to take this risk.

“Payment received. Now, let’s get to it,” Raya said, her tone taking on a more serious note as she prepared to deliver the information.

“Dumpy, your Ancient Swamp Frog, is no ordinary pet. It’s ranked second in the mythical creatures list and since you don’t understand what that means, allow me to give you some context–” Raya said, as she cleared her throat and began blowing Leo’s mind.

“Dragons are ranked 6th on that list, Phoenix’s are ranked 8th, Nine Tailed foxes are 13th and the Blizzard Leopard is 29th” Raya said, as listening to her words Leo began to doubt his whole reality.

“Wait? A Frog with no scales and wings is ranked so much higher than a dragon? And 28 ranks ahead of a fucking leopard?

What were the compilers of this list smoking when they made it?” Leo asked, still not being able to digest the fact that someone had placed Dumpy higher than a dragon and a leopard in the list.

“The list is not compiled by experts, it’s a universe renowned fact, just like ‘TheBoss’ being the number one player is a fact on this arc ship–”read first on website:Ɲ0vel1st.c0m. Raya replied, as her response left Leo speechless.

Dumpy the croaking frog was this amazing?

“The ancient swamp frog grows to an impressive 15 to 18 feet tall within the first 30 days of its life, so you can expect it to be twice as tall as you when it’s in a squatting position by the end of its first month.

And even more when it stands up” Raya said, as Leo felt his jaw drop open.

“Wait—15 to 18 feet in a month? That’s insane!” Leo said, as although he had noticed Dumpy’s rapid growth, but hearing the actual numbers put it in perspective.

“At that rate, he’ll be bigger than a house in no time.” Leo pointed out as Raya chuckled softly.

“That’s just the beginning. After 30 days, their growth slows down, but they continue to expand. Eventually, they can grow to be twice the size of an Ancient Dragon. We’re talking about something as large as a mountain–” Raya added, as Leo felt goosebumps run all over his body when he heard this.

“A mountain? You’re saying Dumpy could end up the size of a mountain?” He asked again, as his mind raced with images of his adorable frog turning into a towering beast capable of swallowing whole cities.

“Yes,” Raya continued, her voice steady as if this were common knowledge. “In fact, they’re known to drive dragons out of their natural habitats. They’re that powerful.”

Leo shook his head in disbelief.

“Dumpy… stronger than dragons? What kind of monster did I get?” Leo wondered, as he suddenly felt stupid for underestimating dumpy for so long and calling it a stupid frog.

For 10 days, he had only abused Dumpy thinking he was stuck with a weakling, but Dumpy was actually a universal treasure.

“Moving on to their abilities. They have many, however the most important one is that they have an innate ability to nullify mana,” Raya added, her voice firm.

“Any creature they come into physical contact with loses the ability to cast spells. This makes them particularly effective against dragons, who rely heavily on mana.” She said, as although she did not explicitly say that Leo could use him to kill Drogo one day, she implied it as best as she could without breaking the rules.

“Nullifying mana? You’re telling me Dumpy can make mages and dragons helpless just by touching them? That’s ridiculous!” Leo said, running his hands through his hair in excitement, as the more he learnt about Dumpy the more interested he became in the frog.

He could hardly imagine the implications of having the ability to nullify mana.

At this point Dumpy wasn’t just a pet, he was a walking anti-magic tank weapon.

“Exactly,” Raya said, a hint of amusement in her voice. “But there’s more. Ancient Swamp Frogs are born with the innate ability to either wield weapons or cast spells and based on Dumpy’s talent with the sword, it’s clear he’s a combat type. If you train him properly, Dumpy could become a Grand Master Swordsman at the very least—perhaps even higher.”

Leo’s eyes widened in shock as he listened to these words.

“A Grand Master Swordsman? You mean to tell me Dumpy can out-swordfight most people in this universe if I train him right?” He asked, as Raya nodded, feeling amused on the other end of the call.

“They can learn anywhere between 5-7 skills just like humans and can elevate their mastery level too.

You can train Dumpy to learn many skills and they need not specifically be related to combat” Raya said, as she informed Leo that Dumpy could be trained to perform many trucks as a pet, which may not necessarily be limited to just a singular field.

At this point, Leo began to literally tremble from head to toe as the image of his frog swinging a sword flashed through his head.

“Oh my god…. Dumpy has so much potential? And I was making it fight fucking snakes?

I needed to train him like Ben trained me… I need to teach him how to perform vanish instead of teaching him how to stomp snakes” Leo said in both elation and regret as he felt stupid now for not having taken Dumpy’s training as seriously as he should have up till now.

“What else?” He asked, as by this point his perception of Dumpy had been shattered completely and he wanted to know all there was to know about his amazing new pet.
