Sovereign of the Firmaments

\'How did he do that?\'

Porter had only one thought in his head when he saw Lucas who had a calm look as though he didn\'t do anything extraordinary.

\'These hidden needles are way better than the ones I used in the past life.\'

As for Lucas, he didn\'t bother to explain anything to Porter and with a nonchalant look on his face, he remarked on the hidden needles.

"Take out the hidden needles from their bodies after you collect their bodies."

Lucas ordered Porter as he stopped hiding behind the boulder with two short swords in his hands.

Seeing that more than 10 of them were dead, the remaining dozens of red-eyed devil rabbits were scared to come forward; however, at the same time, they didn\'t escape.

\'Kur ke kur ke\'

Instead, they made some noises with one another as though they were planning something and maintained some distance while taking the trees as their cover.

\'Master, be careful.\'

Porter wanted to say this; however, when he saw how calm Lucas looked, Porter felt there was no need to say that.

Soon, he rushed towards the dead red-eyed devil rabbits to throw them in the huge sack before taking out the hidden needles from their bodies.

\'Let\'s see which lucky one will take the bait?\'

Lucas intentionally separated from Porter and maintained some good distance making the scared red-eyed devil rabbits attack him.

Moreover, he even made a small cut on his finger.

According to what he knew about the red-eyed devil rabbits, they would become mindless when they see the blood. So, this time, he made himself a bait.

\'Kur ke\'

\'Kur ke\'

Soon, the light red-coloured eyes of the devil rabbits turned dark-red as they rushed at Lucas.

"Yes...yes. That\'s what I want."

Lucas revealed a dark smile on his face when he saw that all the devil rabbits had taken the bait.

\'Slash\'

\'Kacha\'

\'Slash\'

\'Kacha\'

He didn\'t move from his place; instead, he bent a little as he slashed at the incoming devil rabbits which were instantly killed by Lucas.

Even though he didn\'t give any mastery in the short swords, his breathing was even and each slash looked flawless flowing like a river.

\'Ding,

The host killed a rank 1 red-eyed devil rabbit. No Sovereign points were gained.

\'Ding,

The host killed a rank 1 red-eyed devil rabbit. No Sovereign points were gained.

…

…

…

…

\'Ding,

The host killed a rank 1 red-eyed devil rabbit. 1 Sovereign point gained.

\'Ding,

Mission progress:- 30/ 100.

\'Huh? Finally, I got a sovereign point.\'

Not only was he focused on killing the red-eyed devil rabbits, he was also keeping an eye on the system notifications.

So, when he saw the sovereign point, he became happy that he finally got a sovereign point.

\'Not only that, the mission progress is increasing at a good speed.\'

Lucas looked at the corpses of the red-eyed devil rabbits around him and got a little excited.

\'Puchi\'

\'Puchi\'

There were still two devil rabbits which were rushing towards him and he casually threw the two short swords and killed them.

\'Ding,

The host killed 2 rank 1 red-eyed devil rabbits. No Sovereign points were gained.

Just like always, he didn\'t get any sovereign points; however, he was not doing this mission for those points.

It was because of the magic power recovery cultivation technique. Whatever the sovereign points he gets during the mission, they were a bonus.

"Master, here are the hidden needles."

Once all the red-eyed devil rabbits were killed, Porter walked towards Lucas and gave him the hidden needles before collecting the remaining dead devil rabbits.

"Master, shall we go to some other place now?"

It didn\'t take much time for Porter to collect all the devil rabbits into the huge sack before asking Lucas.

"No, this place is perfect. The blood stench will invite many rank 1 spirit beasts for sure."

Lucas pointed at the many bloodstains on the ground and told Porter.

"As you say, master."

Until now, Porter thought Lucas was just a young man who wanted to have fun in the \'Myriad primordial forest\' under his protection.

However, after seeing how calm and how smooth his usage of short swords was, Porter had great respect towards him.

\'As long as he matures, he will definitely make the \'Hellmore\' family into a powerful family for sure.\'

Even though it might feel like over-exaggeration, he completely believed the Hellmore family is going to rival other top families in the Silverstone town in the future.

\'Swoosh\'

\'Puchi\'

\'Kacha\'

Lucas and Porter waited until the next batch of the rank 1 spirit beasts appeared before killing them.

Unlike before, this time it was a group of rank 1 iron-headed ants.

Their size was less than half a meter in height and less than a meter in length and there were more than 100 of them.

Nevertheless, Lucas didn\'t bother about them because he saw them as normal ants that could be crushed easily.

So, released all 10 hidden needles at once hitting 10 iron-headed ants thin necks which instantly killed them.

\'These hidden needles are really cool.\'

Since these needles had the potential to kill a lesser knight, killing a rank 1 spirit beast was nothing. As long as he hit them with those hidden needles, they would be killed without much resistance.

Lucas killed twenty more iron-headed ants before he was completely surrounded by nearly 70 iron-headed ants.

\'I already got a sovereign point after killing 30 iron-headed ants. By the time, I finished killing the rest of the iron-headed ants, I might get 2 more sovereign points.\'

Even though he was completely surrounded by the iron-headed ants, Lucas was calculating about the sovereign points.

\'Swoosh\'

\'Slash\'

Once again, he started swinging his two short swords to massacre the iron-headed ants

\'I need to help, master.\'

Porter, who was looking at Lucas fighting the swarm of iron-headed ants, thought to help him; however, remembering Lucas\' words, \'Unless I ask you to help me, don\'t help me.\'

\'If he got injured even a single bit, I will go and help no matter what.\'

He didn\'t want his new master to die in front of his eyes. So, even if he gets scolded by Lucas, he decided to stop the fighting as long as Lucas gets injured.

\'Tut tut tut\'

Just as he was ready to rush anytime to save Lucus, he heard a noise from his side.

"What? A rank 3 iron-headed ant?"

Porter was shocked when he saw a rank 3 iron-headed ant that was slowly moving towards him.
