Kilo couldn't believe it, neither could his own mind too. He was panting hard and bleeding from his head, which wasn't in a good state. Standing in a cave that looked dark, it was actually lit up by a single Disease, with glowing crystals on its back huge white teeth that was displayed on for Kilo, it screeched as it started to run towards him.
Kilo was apparently taken by surprise, and the Disease was taken by surprised too.
He ended up jinxing himself, and found himself in a high mountain which he later discovered was territory for the Spirit Butterflies.
He was lucky enough to actually find a cave in the first place, since if a Fallen meets an Spirit Butterfly, it will not be going down a good route.
The cave ended up being a nest, or a home to a relatively strong Disease, which was bad.
Kilo, being a Demigod, could easily take it down, but given that both the Disease and Kilo yelled as soon as they came into contact and attacked at the same time, they were both injured.
"So.. your quite the strong one, right?" Kilo spoke in a mannerly tone. Doubting that the Disease could even understand him, he rubbed his forehead, swiping the blood away.
On top of the Disease's head, it showed a little screen like thing, showing that the Disease was showing up to a level 23.
I don't know if being the leader of Demigods change my strength. Which I can confirm that it doesn't.
Being leader and all, it really sounded like a smart choice to choose Kilo. Even Kilo, who though that Mystery was old, seem that himself, or his past life, Ravan, was older.
The Disease could control it's light, so it was making a pattern whenever it attacked. When the light gets brighter, it means it's angry and going to attack, he thought for a brief moment as the light from the crystals became brighter. Aha. Going head first looked like it was going to work on a huge Disease like this, so Kilo ran straight to the Disease as it charged to him.
I have no idea how to fight some Disease like this, or my mind is just forgetting about it. But I know a similar and simpler Disease that's close to this, so going under the belly is a smarter move.
At the last moment, Kilo went straight to the floor, and knowing Fallen Angels best, he used the tip of the wing where just a sharp point of defense was exposed to leave just a big scratch on it.
The Disease shrieked. Got it!
It couldn't stop in time when Kilo actually could stop going at the speed he was running, so it was taken by surprise when suddenly the dangerous boy disappeared from its sight, and a painful sensation flooded its stomach.
Kilo's vision became darker, which it meant that the Disease was in pain or confused, which seemed like both to him. Or it meant that it was becoming a danger threat itself.
At least being a Weakest Demigod means that you are as powerful as a level 30 Disease. That was the thing that was refreshing to him. The only thing refreshing to him right now.
I can't struggle against a enemy that's weaker than me, so let's end this quickly. It looks like it's only alone, so it doesn't belong to a group. But one thought came to his mind right after that. What will this get me too though? I'm aiming to be the [god of Mythical Creatures and Diseases,] so am I killing my chance-
A panel popped in front of his face.
{System: Recovery.}
{Window}
{ |Home| |Updates| |Reports| |Quests| |Goal| |Progress| }
...what? Kilo blocked as the Disease swung it's tail, skiding a few feet back, and quickly decided to finish it off, even if it reduces the chance of getting his goal. Spreading his wings, he flew and used the offense tips of his wings to cut the Disease, also while staying on defense at the same time.
Finally he was able to kill the Disease, and a ping sound was heard.
Ping!
{ |Home| |Updates•| |Reports| |Quests| |Goal| |Progress| }
Spitting out blood, Kilo decided that he shouldn't be taken by surprise again, because even being stronger than a Disease, it doesn't mean that being surprise attacked wouldn't hurt. Clutching his head, he sat down and looked at the panel closer. It says System recovery, so I assume it's from the system? He thought that the new dot next to the 'Updates' is important, so after looking around to secure that he was alone, he reached out his hand and clicked |Updates•|
{ (X)|Updates| New!
• You have killed a [Crystal HoundBug], which is a Disease! You have earned 50 experience points since the Disease is not stronger than you. }
...Experience points? What are those? I already know what experience is.. so it's basically saying that I earned a new ability from it?
Then another ping sound was heard, which he didn't know how to see.
{Click the X please.} Another panel was floating above of the Update panel, and Kilo clicked the X.
{ |Home| |Updates| |Reports| |Quests| |Goal| |Progress•| }
Now Progress had the dot, and since the other one had informed him about the Disease's name and that ' experience points,' he was betting that this one will be important as well, and clicked the Progress.
{ (X) |Progress| New!
• Your Progress is updated!
(Skill name: Taming. Select word for taming a Disease. Skill name: Bound. You can't tame a Creature, so you must select a word for Bounding a Creature to do your bidding.) }
After reading, Kilo now knew that he didn't kill his chance of getting [god of Mythical Creatures and Diseases,] and he had to pick the words for how he will actually befriend them.
The only thing that seemed quite off was the bounding, since being bounded before when he was Ravan didn't feel comfortable at all. Kilo stared at his ring, recollecting things and started to ponder.
"What should I pick for taming? Should it just be [tame]?" He spoke out loud, not to anyone in particular but himself. Then, the Progress panel changed, and it made a zzt noise as it was updated.
{ (X) |Progress|
• Your Progress is updated!
(Skill name: Taming. Selected word: [Tame.] Saying [Tame] will tame a Disease. Only 5 tries if you try to tame a Disease over your level. Skill name: Bound. You can't tame a Creature, so you must select a word for Bounding a Creature to do your bidding.) }
He smirked. "So.. it automatically said that [Tame] will be set? Now I can't tame anything over my level? That's new important information." Getting the gist of the concept, Kilo thought that dead Diseases will obviously not be able to be tamed, so as he got up, he decided to stop here for the day and call a meeting if possible the next day.
In the meantime, he will look through all of the other options before he gets a deserved and needed rest.

"Um.. what?" A man questioned himself as he looked around, bewildered. He was just at a beautiful garden only two seconds ago, and when he thought that it was time to go, he was teleported here.
Right now, the man was standing on a cliff, which was overhanging a few feet above tents. Oil lamps were seen glowing brightly at the bottom, and he heard people's voices, but it was so faint, he started to doubt it.
But the oil lamps at the bottom confirmed that he just wasn't tripping, and he trailed his dark green eyes over the camp.
It was Warfare, and to be fair, Klee.
As soon as Klee thought about how his name was a girl's, he crouched, now embarrassed.
