"Huff. Huff. Huff."
Christopher sat on the ground breathing heavily; blood stains could be seen on his face, body and hands.
He moved his gaze to his right, seeing the two Beasts eating the bats they killed...
...After taking a deep breath, he stood up, and walked up to the twentieth bat, and tear its belly open, removing a blue core.
Christopher walked back to his spot, and sat back down with the core in hand.
"Ahhh..."
He sighed deeply, staring at the thirty cores in front of him.
'Low level Tamers can kill to have these things. Cores can be sold in the black market or Tamers Enterprises for money... And can also be absorbed to increase our life force, which will increase our fighting abilities and body... That's why cores are important to Tamers, to some, it's even more important than money... You can sell cores, but can't buy it... That's the unshakable rule... As for me.'
He slowly started absorbing the cores, after absorbing five, he stopped.
'Bastard!! I can't absorb more than five Cores!! This body's physique is just too weak... Even if he becomes a Tamer, he won't go far with such physique.'
Christopher sighed. This reality only fueled his determination to get the tears of the Mythical Beast.
'All these fighting would have alerted the Beast guarding the tears... So annoying.'
He took the remaining 25 cores. Getting an idea; he dug the ground, and placed them inside; then closed it.
"Are you guys done eating?!"
The two Beasts turned their heads towards him, and nodded.
"Good... Our journey continues."
With that said, he started walking, with the two following behind him.
_______
[Valhalla family's Mansion.]
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Son! You have been inside for so long, come down and have dinner with the family!"
Amara calmly said, placing her ear on the Door's surface.
"Madam?"
Amara jolted back in surprise, she quickly turned around seeing Leyla staring at her in confusion.
"It's just you, Leyla. Why's my Son not answering me?"
"Mum!!"
Before Leyla could answer, Katherine walked up to them with her spider Beast, who was now in its None Combat form, standing on her shoulder.
"What's it, Dear?" Amara asked in mild confusion.
"Spidy told me Big brother entered my room and took his car keys with him."
"Car keys?"
Amara was getting even more confused, she turned her head to Leyla, who opened her mouth.
"Master Christopher left the house around 11, In the morning, he hasn't returned."
"WHAT?!!!"
Amara's voice reverberated all over the House, she turned to Leyla.
"What?! Since morning?! The time is 8:00pm! Where could he have gone?! What about his bodyguards?!"
"There are in the house. Master Christopher drove off without them." Leyla answered in a calm tone.
"Those Fools! If he drove off without them, can't they take another car and follow behind him?!! They're all gonna hear from me! And Leyla! You're his Personal Assistant, I placed you here so you'll keep an eye on him, don't you know his whereabouts?!"
"I'm sorry, Madam... I-I don't know where the master is." Leyla said with her head lowered.
"Calm down, Mum. Maybe big brother is out partying."
"No! Your brother have changed, he's not partying! Oh, No!!!"
She exclaimed:
"What if he's in danger?!!"
The two girls' faces changed slightly.
"No, I need to tell the old man! They have to look for my Son!!"
With a frenzy, she ran towards the stairs.
"Mum! Slow down!!"
Katherine nodded at Leyla, and quickly Chase after her Mum.

While the whole forces in the city will start looking for him in the next five minutes. Christopher was heading into the mouth of an enrage Mythical stage Beast, who countless Elite and Legendary Tamers won't dare to go against... Let alone use two Perfect stage Beasts.
Hufffffff....
Christopher and the two Beasts came to a stop in a wide space, as big as a basketball stadium... They all looked up, seeing a huge Black Window Spider, sleeping on a huge Spider webs above a natural made fountain.
"Shhhh."
He placed his hand on his lips, gesturing for the two to remain silent... With a deep breath, he slowly walked towards the fountain... His eyes fixed on the sleeping enrage Mythical stage Beast above him.
Christopher got to the Fountain, slowly brought out the plastic Vial from his pocket, and filled it with the tears in the fountain, his gaze still fixed on the Beast.
After taking the tears, he looked at the vial with a smile... No one knew where the tear appear from, but it'll help him dearly.
BANG!
Christopher eyes went wide in shock, he quickly turned around to the two Beasts, seeing them pointing and gesturing to the spider, they were trembling in horror.
He slowly turned his head to the spider, on the spiderwebs; seeing a blood bat flying towards it.
'Really?!! Is this a payback for killing your kins!?!!!'
He didn't try to stop the Bat, but rubbed the ring, taking the Cat and Centipede inside. He placed the vial in his pocket, and took off.
The Bat collided on the Spider's head. The Beast instantly opened its eyes, the moment it saw the bat, it chomped on it, instantly killing the bat.
The black Window Spider, with red dots on the steel carapace, which covered its abdomen, and body; fixed its gaze on the running human.
'Shit!!'
Christopher exclaimed, coming to a stop as the black Window shot into the air, landing in front of him.
SCREECH!!!!!
He took a step back as the Beast starting approaching him.
"Calm down, Guy... Or Lady... I'm here for just the tears, nothing more... If you can just move aside for me to leave--"
<"What made you think you can enter my cave and take my precious away?!">
Christopher wasn't surprise, Mythical and Divine Beasts are highly evolved creatures which could speak the human's language... So for this Spider to speak didn't surprise him one bit.
"Can't we make a deal or something?!" He yelled at the Beast.
<"I don't make deals with weak humans!!">
Christopher sighed helplessly, and tightly gripped his daggers.
"If I can't bargain with you, I'll have to kill you."
