Even though the creature was only a juvenile, its strength was at an absurd level. Although Lyrian's created creatures grew quickly in their early years thanks to the system, this was still an unexpected level of power.

┗━━━━━━━━━┛

'Not only is it absurdly powerful... but it also gained the Ancient Bloodline just like the Pheon! And just like the Pheon, its agility stat is immensely higher as well. This thing will grow into a beast when it fully matures.' A smirk appeared on Lyrian's face.

Tao had a serious yet indifferent expression on its face as it continued to fly freely.

"Tao! Will you take my command?" Lyrian announced, staring at the bird. The knight also looked up, ceasing to fight for a moment.

"What in the hell is that? First, you had a big Dire wolf, and then a weird shape-changing hobgoblin, and now, a white and black bird?"

After a few seconds, Tao flapped its wings toward the ground and darted up into the infinite ceiling, or whatever it was that was above them. It soon turned into a minuscule blur, before suddenly missiling down towards the ground.

It moved so fast that a thin layer of orange heat formed in front of it. The knight donned a concerned face, backing up slightly. Lyrian was also confused, and clueless about what Tao was doing.

Suddenly, the bird came inches from the ground before turning in mid-air and darting toward Lyrian at immense speeds. Lyrian instinctively blocked his hands, seeing the bird coming at him at speeds he could barely even witness.

At that moment, he felt two large talons clutch onto his wrist. He opened his closed eyes, noticing that Tao had landed on his arm.

"Ha--haha! Good, so you will obey me!" Tao didn't make a sound but didn't deny Lyrian either.

"At least I have some creatures who listen to me... now, go and take care of that bastard!" Lyrian shouted, as Tao jumped off of his arm and blitzed towards the knight without wasting a millisecond.

"Hey! What the he--" The knight tried to exclaim, but was suddenly cut off as a blurred figure tore through his left arm. It flew in the air before landing a few feet away on the ground.

"Huh!? So quick! I have to play seriously!" The knight fueled his body with a ton of mana and Enhanced it thickly as he turned around to face the bird that was coming back for another go.

He took in a deep breath and tried to time the bird's attack. As soon as it arrived 50 feet from him, he thrust forward with his sword. It wasn't well thought out, but it was the best he could do.

However, Tao swiftly evaded the attack and flew at the knight's neck. In one fell sweep, the knight was decapitated.

+1 Rank Point.

And with that, Tao returned to Lyrian's arm in an instant. Lyrian had an uncontrollable grin on his face this entire time. "Good work. Shadow," Tao disappeared into his shadow, "I guess there is a new general in town. The strongest of all my creatures. Speaking of which... I want to create an even stronger one soon. Maybe I'll go on a big hunt." He mused, leaving the BF.

As soon as he stepped out of it, his roommate walked out of the bathroom. He seemed frustrated, marching straight to his bed and falling onto it.

"H-how!? How can a weakling like that have tamed such a beast!? Damn it! My first loss... and it was to a damn summon." He mumbled to himself into his pillow, clenching his fists.

Lyrian soon entered his bed to sleep as well. As he did, his roommate suddenly looked over at him gazing up at the ceiling.

"Hey... you." The boy suddenly said, staring directly at Lyrian.

Lyrian slowly turned to him, 'What the heck? Did he figure me out or something?'

"Hmm..." His roommate squinted his eyes and continued gazing at him without saying a word. "Never mind... you are way too weak for that. There's no way."

As soon as Lyrian heard this, he turned to face the ceiling again. He heaved a quiet sigh of relief.

'That was close... thank god he didn't find out that it was me. All my secrets would have been spoiled.'

"There was a guy... a crazy strong one." His roommate began to talk.

'What is this bastard yapping to me about now!? Doesn't he hate me?' Lyrian thought to himself.

"He was... too strong, so I had to report him. He took away my 100% win rate for this year... the cunt." He exclaimed in frustration, before looking over at Lyrian, "Ya' hear me--" He cut himself off, seeing Lyrian snoring.

"Wh--how dare you! You are a mongrel! Ugh!" He turned around aggressively, closing his eyes shut.

"Another report of a player abusing the system?" A man said, standing behind the seat of a man who stared at a magic orb.

"Yeah... how about you let me work?" The man sitting in front of the orb said, turning to look at the man standing behind him with slight irritation.

"Hahaha! This is my only break today, let me have some fun bullying you! Anyways... how many of those do you get per day?"

"I get 50 or more." The man working with the orb quickly replied.

"Do you have to reply to all of them?"

"No... all of them are just sore losers who can't accept losses. At least, for the most part."

A few seconds of silence resounded in the room they were in... before another report popped up on the orb.

"What's this? A new one..."

The man placed his hand above the orb, as it shifted to show the recap of a recently reported fight.

"What in the world!?" The man standing behind the seated man said in pure shock, "Summons like that, and from a new ranker!?"

"I have to report this..." The man using the orb sounded dumbfounded.
