Happy reading!
===========
"Guh...-"
The crowd of tigers felt pain, it was difficult to breathe.
When they want to escape, they can't fly up.
Something pushed them backwards, as if gravity was holding them down.
"Gahh!!!-"
They all immediately growled loudly until it reached Ethan's ears.
"Oh..."
He turned his head slightly towards the source of the voice, feeling a little interested.
Unfortunately, he held back his curiosity, trying to avoid the rain of lava that hit him.
Seeing the lava tsunami that continued to erupt until it splattered everywhere.
Keep looking up, see something extraordinary.
The lava waves changed slightly, some areas had several holes.
It was quite small, still surprising.
Suddenly something came out that was shaped like a hand, different from a human's.
It was a thin hand, shaped like a bone.
It's just that there's still content.
"..."
Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling worried.
'Could it be... Are they-' While he was lost in thought, something unexpected happened.
Felt a blow hit him right in the face. scorching hot.
Luckily it didn't hurt him so much that he broke his bones. Recovered immediately.
"Fuck..." Ethan muttered irritably, turning back to where the crowd of fire lions were.
A feeling of anger surged in his heart, seeing their sneak attack.
"Damn little beasts, don't think I will let you go!"
After that, Ethan sped forward at a crazy speed.
A wide smile began to form on his face, showing his sharp canine teeth.
An expression that only psychopaths show.
The fire lion trembled slightly, but quickly ignored it.
Considering that currently they are the ones who benefit the most. Self-confident.
Confident that this will be their victory!
Unfortunately that didn't happen, seeing Ethan start to say something unexpected.
He seemed to be taking a deep breath, making his stomach bulge slightly.
Terrifying energy began to surge throughout his body, much stronger.
Ethan started to feel his throat heating up, but it didn't hurt him.
It was so comfortable, as if it was part of him.
Ethan's eyes sharpened, preparing to launch a dragon's breath attack.
"Dragon Breath!"
Something terrible happened around him, a huge burst of fire was seen coming out of his mouth.
This is so much hotter than lava, it's even unimaginable.
The wide range that Ethan produced now was different from when he fought against the bear leader, his range was much wider.
Showing he was trying his best to focus his energy towards her throat, without hesitation.
The fire lions's faces started to fill with disbelief, seeing that the heat was much more extreme than theirs.
Some of them wanted to escape from the attack, some did not.
They still believe that if there is a lava tsunami, they will be able to withstand it, without budging!
But it didn't match their expectations, the burst of fire swept across the lava.
Collapsed, leaving a large hole visible in the middle.
"BOOM!-"
A powerful explosion occurred at that place, lava could be seen starting to gush out and reach several places.
The attack was so fast that the fire lions didn't even have time to react, and in the end they were hit by the impact.
There were also some of them who were hit by their own attacks, although Ethan's attacks were much bigger.
It scorched everything around the place, even the ground beneath it.
Melting, even the surrounding air began to heat up.

[Congratulations! Host, you have reached level 16.]
[It takes 1,440/4,000 exp to reach level 17, try harder!]
"Extraordinary!-"
A huge amount of energy entered his body, causing the surroundings to start to fill with wind.
His body and organs were constantly changing, becoming stronger.
Ethan felt how unreasonable this was, feeling his energy continue to overflow.
But he was very happy to see himself rise up to 2 levels.
It was something he had never thought of, not in his plans.
The tiredness within him became a little lighter, no longer feeling tired.
"This is amazing..." he muttered softly as he looked at his hands.
Opening and closing it, felt something so amazing.
Soon, a small grin formed on his lips as he looked back at the remains of the fire lion.
Seeing that there were only 2 of them, even then they were already seriously injured.
His entire skin and insides were burned, but continued to regenerate.
Ethan could see their veins, feeling a little disgusted.
"..."
He continued looking forward, and soon walked back.
The healing of the two fire lions was very slow, Ethan didn't intend to wait too long.
"step-" "step-" "step-"
Several seconds later, he finally arrived before them.
Seeing that inside their bodies there are hearts similar to humans.
"oh... So this is what keeps them from dying..."
Ethan continued to stare at their hearts with curiosity.
He even dared to touch it, it felt a little hot.
But it still doesn't hurt him, normal.
After that, Ethan stretched out his sword right in front of one of the fire lion's hearts, right in front of it.
"Slash-"
He immediately stabbed it, and blood started to flow.
The notification once again appeared.
[Gained 400 exp from killing a fire lion, remaining 1,840/4,000 exp to reach level 17.]
[Get 50 lucky coins from killing a fire lion.]
Ethan immediately drew back his sword, without showing much emotion.
Looking back at the last fire lion, which has now healed its head.
The creature continued to stare at him, full of hatred.
He knew that it was impossible for him to survive anymore, in the end he could only surrender.
But hatred and anger continue to overflow, hoping that there will be a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, not a single creature answered his call. felt something piercing his body.
He started to spit out mouthfuls of blood, until he finally fell off the ground.
Helpless.
"Thud-"
"..."
The place suddenly became silent, with the surrounding magma having disappeared.
Ethan continued to float in the sky, while moving his head upwards.
Looking at the dark and slightly starry sky.
Accompanied by a radiating red moon.
"huft-" he breathed a sigh of relief, glad his plan had worked.
Even though there were a few changes, luckily it worked.
If not, he will be the one who will meet his death. Still he was happy.
Seeing such a powerful attack made his skin tingle slightly.
"What if it was a real dragon? Isn't that scarier?" Ethan muttered softly, imagining a dragon destroying a city so easily.
But immediately shook his head, feeling it was unreasonable.
Even so, the image in his mind still lingered.
"Okay..."
Without wasting any time he began to land on the ground, feeling that the situation had calmed down.
Even on the Lizardman side, they had almost finished their fight.
"fyush-"
Ethan immediately returned to his original form, not wanting to stand out.
The feeling when he returned to his human form was very comfortable, becoming stronger.
This felt much different from his previous self, more energetic.
This made him even more excited, he couldn't wait to continue his hunt.
He looked towards where the Lizardman were currently, along with the tigers.
"Wow... That was really a fierce fight..."
Ethan praised them all, knowing that they were indeed strong.
Even the crowd of tigers were unable to stop their movements, instead they were continuously attacked.
Currently the crowd of tigers only numbers around 4, some are even seriously injured.
The Lizardman didn't give them any time to rest at all, they continued to attack in turns.
This is their cooperation, as aquatic creatures.
Ethan was amazed by that, continuing to watch.
His smile grew wider.
But he had no intention of kidnapping their prey, thinking it would be no good.
Continue watching their fight, until you reach the end.
"squirt-"
Erd, he stabbed one of the remaining tigers very deeply.
Until it penetrated out, from under his stomach.
It hit his heart, and he died.
Finally the tiger fell until it reached the ground.
Saw blood start to come out, painting the ground he was pressed into blood.
"Hmph! Now all that's left is you." he said coldly while staring at the place where the last tiger was. Sharp.
Even the herd was the same, they stuck out their spears right in front of the tiger.
Preparing to kill him, like prey that must be killed.
The tiger started to be afraid, feeling alone.
None of his comrades were by his side anymore, they were dead.
"Guh...-"
Because the fear of death continued to penetrate his heart, he ran away from that place.
Floats upwards, hoping the Lizardman can't catch him.
Unfortunately their speed was far superior, making him unable to move.
Finally he was killed, indiscriminately.
His body immediately fell to the ground, with his eyes closed.
"oh... That was a great show." Ethan once again praised them while clapping his hands.
Immediately stood up from the ground awaiting their arrival.
Of course he wouldn't forget his two slaves, seeing where they were.
Their bodies trembled with fear seeing the fierce fight their master was waging.
The look on their faces seemed to want to say; "What would happen if we were on Master's side? Aren't we going to die!?" and looked at Ethan in disbelief.
"come here."
They immediately woke up from their respective thoughts, hearing his order.
Not wanting to linger, afraid he would get angry, they immediately walked towards his place.
Without seeing his face, scared.
But there was one thing they were thinking about, feeling that their master was getting stronger.
"gulp-"
They began to wonder who he really was, where he came from.
From their perspective towards humans, that race should no longer inhabit this place.
"step-" "step-" "step-"
The two of them continued walking, in front of Ethan.
While lowering his body, hoping he wasn't angry.
'ugh... What happened?' Ethan was confused by their sudden action, continuing to look down.
Instantly he smiled amusedly seeing their faces covered in sweat.
Finally he understood one thing, "they are afraid." knew they wouldn't dare do any more trouble.
While he was having fun in his mind, Ethan felt several presences coming towards him.
Turned to the source, seeing that it was just a group of lizardman.
Some of them hugged the burnt corpses of their colleagues.
Their faces showed sadness, even though they had won this battle.
Still, casualties cannot be avoided, that is absolute.
