They heard all legends about the effect after consuming the meat of powerful monsters.
"Grow stronger, until you guys can finally showcase yourselves in the city." He seriously said.
The five nods their heads, their eyes are shining with hope and ambition.
They wanted to show the world that even as sl*ves, they can amount to something.
"Also, freeze the meat that I will be leaving for you guys, I will bring some with me and I will give the rest to my pet eel." He stated calmly.
Most monsters would only hunt those that are weaker than them and yet they are still improving at a much faster rate than humans.
But those that actively devours those at the same rank would improve much faster.
The only reason why not many monsters do this because the benefits does not outclass the risk.
He rested some more, eating such a large amount of high grade monster meat has finally satisfied the dying cells in his body.
As long as he can use his (Pet Spirit Possession) and use the ability of his earthworms, he is certain to recover without any problem.
Stretching for a bit, he can still sense the pain in his muscles, using berserk pills is always considered as either a trump card or a last resort by him.
"Master, it was one of the workers that cooked the snake meat." Suddenly, David breaks the silence in the room.
Sean turns to him and nods his head, he then said. "Call that person inside of this room."
Hearing this, the twins went to fetch the worker, the three girls will not leave him alone in this room, at least one of them needs to stay.
"Master, once we become true martial artists, shall you let us travel into the city?" Asked Melody.
"No, you don't need to become true martial artists, just need to reach the medium level." This was a shocking news for them.
He was not finished yet and added.
"I heard some news that people from the academy will come in the city, hopefully, your talents will amaze them."
The academies are one of the most exalted powers in this world as in order to graduate from them, you must be at least become a true martial artists.
"Hopefully, with constant consumption of high grade monster meat and your training, you will reach at least the standard level for application." He stated.
"Don't worry master, we will as hard as possible to at least reach the fourth stage of the Skin Tempering Realm." Althear promises.
"I hope you will, I will not be here to always check your progress but every week, I will certainly be present to look after your training and fix some of your problems at the same time, bring some resources." He explains.
His disciples nods, they understand that he is extremely busy with his growing business.
They are just happy to have him and their backer, his support meant everything for them.
"By the way, since you guys had not completed my task yet, I will give you a different mission and that is to create a map of the surroundings around our base."
"I advise you to be careful, the danger that the monsters around this forest possess are all high, even medium grade monsters might be too strong for any of you to fight." He warns them.
"Yes, master." The three nodded, Sean knows that his disciples are all obedient.
"Good, hopefully, there are some monsters that can be raised in this base, we need to have a constant supply of meat for both training purposes and my plans." He seriously said.
A knock appears on his door, with his entire body covered in bandages and his mask in his face.
"Come in." The twins brought the man responsible for cooking his snake.
Even though the meat was tough to prepare because it takes a long time to be cooked, this person was able to finish it in just a matter of minutes.
He checks his ability using his (Nurture).
[Name: Bornok
Current Realm: Mortal Shell
Innate: Sharp Nose
Ability: Tenderizer]
Tenderizer: Able to soften any flesh that he touches.
Sharp Nose: Sense of smell is enhanced.
An innate chef! This is what appeared on Sean's mind, moreover, his ability can be used as a support against monsters.
"I am pleased with your performance and decided that you will become this base head chef, this position can only be decided by me and no one else." The man was ecstatic.
"If you perform well, I can also accept you as a disciple and help you reach heights that you can only dream off before." He put out a bait.
Bornok's breathing becomes hurried, he is tempted of course, he is but an ordinary civilian but he knows that there is a chance for him to be someone great as long as he can become Sean's disciple.
"I will strive to become your disciple, sir!" He meant these words will all of his heart.
Sean nods his head, inwardly, he just wants this person to be the greatest cook in their group.
He is planning to build multiple restaurants to act as the front of their underground martial art tournament and illegal monster fights.
As long as they can have the tactic approval of some of the higher-ups of the law enforcement agency, they can take in the money with these types of events.
With his outfit covering returned and body, the others does not know that he had just currently injured heavily.
Looking at his straight walk and calm demeanor, no one would associate him from the person earlier.
He gathers everyone at the meeting room, looking at their eyes, he can see the worship and admiration on them.
They were unable to even lift the snake and yet he managed to kill it after even fighting against two martial artists.
Strength is king! This saying is quite prevalent in this world.
"Everyone, I have an announcement to make, Bornok has shown his talent in the way of cooking, I appreciate his talent and decided to make him the head chef of this base." The sl*ves and workers in the base were shocked.
"As the head chef, he does not need to fight and only need to cook, he will also gain the permission to eat up to medium grade monster meat."
Once again, the shock hits the face of everyone like a wrecking ball.
"As the head chef, he may recruits other cooks to work under him, remember this! As long as your talent is great, do not be afraid to show it to me." He left these words as his final remark.
He wants to recruit multiple talents in different fields, for as long as he has his ability, he can nurture them into great individuals in the future.
"Come out, Thunderbolt, its feeding time." Just as his voice dies down, the water surface churns.
The electric eel, which was now bigger than before appears in front of everyone.
Its gaze is drawn to the head of the snake and its cut off body parts.
With (Nurture) and a monster's own growth rate, it was now slowly becoming a threat to the powerful monsters in the lake.
Fortunately for it, monsters are not that smart to work with each other and many of them are afraid to move against it since it might invites others to attack them.
"Its your food, continue to hunt the monsters in this lake and I shall continue to raise you well." He rubs its head before signalling everyone to throw the body to it.
Thunderbolt immediately grabs the head and drags it down below, it seems to be quite eager to eat it.
Sean clicks his tongue and says. "In just a matter of days, it is already at eight tier, it will not be long when it transforms into a Savage Beast."
Other than him, everyone looks at the lake with fear, Savage Beast, a title that even an entire city shakes in fear.
Looking at the fist size meat in his hand, he went to the garden, looking at the plants that are flourishing, he can't help but smile.
"David, dig a hole right here." He orders his disciple, he wants to dig it himself but because his entire body is covered in bandages, including his hands and fingers, he decided not to.
Putting the fist size meat in the hole, he had the other twin cover it, he knows that as long as he continue to feed the two with such high quality resource, it will not belong for them to transform.
Instantly, the meat attracted both Terra and Earth, the two of them wraps their bodies around it.
They are only eating bits by bits of it but still, the amount of energy was too great for them.
If they are ordinary earthworms, this would have killed them already.
