Chapter 27 - 2-Star Ember Foxes

Savra, who was now sitting at a throne, smirked when seeing that Lucius had finally come to see her.

She also saw the cages that were being brought and put down by the maids that were filled with the new beasts.

Savra then looked at Lucius and said, "I assume those are the results of your efforts. Are they the newly evolved forms of the Flame Foxes?"

Lucius then smirked as he explained. "Yes, indeed. They are 2-Star beasts that had been evolved from Flame Foxes. They are called Ember Foxes now."

Savra then immediately took out her beast scanner and began to scan the new Ember Fox as she pointed it to it.

Savra was surprised the moment she saw the stats of the new Ember Fox. She never thought that its stats could be this high.

She then immediately turned toward Lucius and smirked. "D-Tier stats. To think that you managed to do this on a 2-Star beast. It is a bit unexpected."

Lucius only chuckled as he replied. "Unexpected? Lady Savra, haven't I told you not to underestimate me, the genius Evolist?"

Savra didn't respond to him immediately but instead, she directed her scanner toward the other cages, scanning each Ember Fox in turn.

The moment she looked at the scanner, she was surprised to see that the results were identical and this made her smirk.

"You have exceeded my expectations. I didn't think all five would turn out this strong." Savra admitted after she saw her scanner.

But Savra then continued her words, "But I wonder how they perform in combat. Stats are one thing but skill is another."

Lucius only smirked after hearing it. "Then why don't we find out? Let's take one to the arena and test its strength." Lucius suggested.

Savra immediately nodded and gestured to one of the maids. "Release one of the Ember Foxes, and prepare to test its power."

The maid then bowed quickly and moved to one of the cages, opened it and released one of the Ember Foxes.

Savra was fascinated as the Ember Fox was prettier and stronger than the Flame Fox. She wondered just how powerful it was.

The maid also summoned her own beast, which was a 2-Star Fire Serpent. It immediately slithed forward and stood in front of the Ember Fox.

Lucius, who saw the maid's beast, then commented. "A Fire Serpent? "Not a bad choice. But are you sure testing it here is wise?" Lucius asked and looked at Savra.

Savra chuckled as she explained it to Lucius. "Don't worry, as the grand hall is reinforced. It's more than capable of withstanding a battle between 2-Star beasts. Besides, this is merely a test."

Lucius then chuckled as he was amused, "Very well then. Let's enjoy the show." He said while sitting on a chair that had been prepared by the maids.

Savra then immediately looked at both beasts that were now ready to fight and immediately shouted, "Let the test begin."

The maid nodded as she immediately ordered her beast to act first. "Fire Serpent, use Flame Spit!"

The Fire Serpent then immediately opened his mouth and immediately threw a flame toward Ember Fox.

The Ember Fox avoided it by using its Flame Dash, making it faster than it already was and also making its flame attack stronger later.

Savra, who saw it, was immediately interested. "Its speed was quite good for a 2-Star beast."

The maid frowned and immediately issued her beast another command. "Fire Serpent, use Flame Wrap! Bind it!"

The serpent soon ignited its body and lunged toward the Ember Fox. It was trying to encircle the fox and soon bound it down.

But the Ember Fox was faster than it. It easily moved and avoided the fire serpent's attack and also immediately countered it with its own attack.

The Ember Fox soon ignited its tail and used Ember Tail right in the serpent's head, making it down in a single hit.

The maid was quite surprised, as she never thought that her beast would be defeated with only one move.

Savra, who had seen the battle, smirked and rose from her throne. She immediately looked at Lucius.

"Lucius, to think that your new beast can take down a normal 2-Star beast in one or two hits. It is really wonderful."

Lucius only smiled after being praised, "Of course it is. I told you, didn't I? These Ember Foxes are stronger than it looks."

Savra then smiled as she praised him, "You have really outdone yourself yet again, Lucius. I really need to stop to underestimate you."

She also then crossed her arms as she told him. "And also, these Ember Foxes should sell so well later. Even more than I expected."

Lucius only stood and smiled. "If that is the case, then I'll be expecting my share of the profits, Lady Savra. I trust that you won't disappoint."

Savra only chuckled and began to become a bit more serious. "Don't you worry, as I will not let you down. I'll ensure these Ember Foxes are sold to the highest bidders."

Lucius smirked upon hearing what Savra had promised. "Good, I'll leave the rest to you. I am going back to my room."

Savra only nodded as she said. "Okay then, please have a good time with both of your slaves."

Lucius only smiled as he left the grand hall, leaving Savra to handle the matters about these Ember Foxes.

Savra then looked toward one of the headmaids. "Prepare the carriage, as I'm going to the auction house immediately. These Ember Foxes need to be listed and showcased before the market cools."

The head maid nodded and immediately did what she was told: "At once, Lady Savra."

She then immediately handled the maids to prepare the cages to be brought to the auction house and the guards to prepare the carriage for Lady Savra.
