As was flying over Emberde on the back of his Dungeon Monster Theo while the cold air brushed against his face after removing his helmet. That''s when he spotted the Nightfall River.


    It cut through thend and went further west, as cities and viges were on the other side of the rushing water, ''''Fly low to the ground, and let''s look for the Swamp Hags boy,'''' he said with excitement while stroking the Blood Bat King''s fur.


    The monster released a soft chirp of acknowledgment as they soared through the sky, gliding effortlessly over rolling hills and vast stretches of grasnd. Below, a group of strange, humanoid figures—women with an unnatural appearance—stumbled along the riverbank, catching his attention.


    ''They look like they''re straight out of a horror novel,'' he thought with a shiver.


    When As saw this, he aimed his Nightde at the group and cast Void Bomb at them. The azure projectile sliced through the air and hit the monsters, causing an explosion that killed two, but one managed to survive, which baffled him.


    Theo dived down load andnded before As jumped off the monster''s back. When seeing the Swamp Hag crawling along the shore, he uses Void Sight on the creature to determine its rank.


    [Swamp Hag]


    [Rank: C - 300 Exp]


    [Be careful of their magic]


    ''Weak monsters, this shouldn''t take too long,'' As thought with a big smile before diving his de through the skull of the Swamp Hag.


    The monster stopped moving, causing As to grab three of their hands and green Monster Cores, which he stored in his Dimensional Storage, before looking at Theo, whose head tilted to the side while looking at him with a curious gaze.


    ''When we fight together, our bond grows, Master,'' the giant bat''s wise voice echoed in his mind. ''Use us to help you, and we will be stronger.''


    As nodded before responding, his voice determined, ''That''s the n; it''s why I want to conquer more dungeons while making my way west.''


    He eagerly climbed onto the monster''s back, finding a secure spot. "First, we track down the Wild Orcs," As said, his voice brimming with excitement. "Then, it''s on to the Forest Trolls."


    The giant bat took off, and the duo searched for the monsters needed toplete the quest. They had no luck until they started flying over the Ember Forest. As watched the ground along with Theo, who chirped and sharply turned right, taking him by surprise.


    After ten minutes of flight, As spotted a ramshackle camp and orcs wandering around it doing business. When seeing this, he spoke, ''''Should I test out the Savage Void Bears boy? They were annoying to fight.''''


    The Dungeon Monster nodded, causing As to smile, ''''Fly lower so I can drop the furballs on top of them.''''


    While Theo flew toward the Wild Orc Camp, he pulled up the mana costs of summoning a single Void Monster to aid him.


    [Rank F: 150 Mana]


    [Rank E: 300 Mana]


    [Rank D: 600 Mana]


    [Rank C: 1200 Mana]


    [Rank B: 2400 Mana]


    ''Not too expensive,'' he smiled before spamming summoning the Savage Void Bears that dropped into the monster camp.


    When the angry bears hit the ground, they started tearing through the Wild Orcs easily while As and Theonded nearby. He jumped off the giant bat while a group of Wild Orcs charged at him while holding weapons.


    ''They are useful at dealing with crowds of monsters as they just don''t care,'' he mused with a smile while watching the Savage Void Bears quickly deal with the orcs.


    As braced himself for a fight, but two bears jumped on the creatures before ripping them into meat chunks, leaving behind half a dozen green cores. Afterward, he and Theo entered the fray and finished the remaining Wild Orcs.


    Once all the monsters were dead, all the Savage Void Bears turned to him with gleaming red eyes before everyone charged in his direction. As smiled as the monsters jumped over him andthered his face with loving licks.


    He startedughing while pushing one of the bears off his chest and sitting up before another wrapped its arms around his shoulder, causing As to stroke each creature who loved his touch.


    ''They already love you, Master,'' Theo said while approaching them. ''The old master never did this; he only used us as weapons.''


    As nced at Theo, but a sudden instinct screamed at him to move. He barely had time to react before a Wild Orc crashed through the underbrush, its massive axe arcing toward his head.


    His heart seemed to stop as the deadly de closed in—but then a blur of dark fur streaked past him. A Savage Void Bear took the full force of the blow, blood spraying across As'' face as the creature was brutally cleaved in two, and for a moment, time seemed to freeze.


    ''Damn monster caught me off guard,'' he thought.


    As lunged at the orc, shing its legs from under it. The creature roared as it copsed, but he was already on top before he drove his Nightde into its toso before casting Void Bullet.


    The Wild Orc''s body exploded into tiny pieces that covered him in blood and guts, which made As gag. Once the monster was dead, he nced at the fallen monsters before dismissing all but Theo back to the Void Realm.


    After that, he collected the green Monster Cores and most orc tusks. Before storing them in his storage, The giant bat approached, and As mounted its back, ready to continue their quest.


    With a determined smile, he signaled Theo to take flight again, heading toward Sunset Vige in search of the Forest Trolls toplete his quests. The two flew across the hills about Emberde only to find nothing due to the sun setting.


    Thend turned dark, and Theo suggested when his voice echoed in As''s mind, ''Maybe we should rest and continue the search tomorrow, Master?''''


    He looked around but reluctantly agreed, ''''Yes. Find the tallest hill, and we will camp there.''''


    Ten minutester, theynded on a hill close to the town but stood over everything for miles around. Rolling hills and scattered forestsy everywhere with Emberde and the small Sunset Vige.


    He got to work and set up the Dark One Runes around his campsite while Theo watched in fascination. As started setting up the tent and campfire that roared to life, causing him to look at the Blood Bat King resting next to the fire.


    As pulled out some monster meat from his Dimensional Storage and started cooking it while adding spices, causing a delicious aroma to hit his nose. It took a few more minutes to be done before he started eating.


    ''This is delicious; maybe I should start collecting monster meat from now on?'' he pondered while taking a bite of the spicy food.


    After finishing his meal, As realized he was still hungry. Sighing, he pulled out a box of Griffin meat, savoring each bite. The rich, savory vor filled him with satisfaction, but a wave of difort hit as he devoured thest piece.


    Overeating had left him bloated and queasy. Groaning, he rubbed his stomach, trying to ease the fullness. "Guess that was a bit much," he muttered to himself.


    He gave Theo a gentle stroke, the Blood Bat King chirping softly as if offeringfort. With heavy eyes, As crawled into his tent, exhaustion quickly overtaking him as he fell asleep inside hisfortable sleeping bag and nkets.


    The sky above was clear until morning when a rainstormshed the hilltop, causing Theo to cover the tent with his giant wings. As woke up the following morning with a yawn but instantly heard the rain and windshing against the tent.


    ''What is it with this horrible weather,'' he internallyined before looking outside and seeing Theo soaking wet.


    ''''Thank you for covering the tent; you can return to the Dungeon Realm as we can''t fly in this,'''' Asmented as the monster vanished.


    Following that, he activated the Weather Runes that came with the tent, which blocked the wind and rain. While sitting there, he looked out the window and couldn''t see more than a few feet before sighing.


    ''Looks like I''m trapped here for a while,'' he thought. ''But I can clear more of the Void Golems.''


    With that decided, As activated the Void Realm Skill that sucked his consciousness onto the teau where he had been fighting before. He readied his de while checking the monster''s total. Readtest stories on mvl

    Following that, As heard the swarm marching toward him. He beamed before casting Void Barrage at the closest ones, causing explosions as the force sent the Golems flying into the ocean below.


    While he was focused, a group ambushed him, causing As to yelp in surprise. Reacting quickly, he unleashed Void Wave, shattering the stone construct. The battle raged on as he darted across the teau, fending off waves of Void Golems.


    A few Warrior Golems also emerged, but his magic weakened them. As swiftly carved the monsters into chunks of stone, empowering his des with Void Infusion, causing the enemies to stumble backward.


    As blocked a warrior''s punch with Void Guard before retaliating with a Void st that sent it falling off the teau. Once he got some breathing room, he downed a mana potion and a healthy one because he took some punches.
