BXBX NOVEL Chapter 103 Toothless Damsel In Distress
"Can beasts lie to me or not?" was the question going through Seth\'s mind as he stared at the tiger, but then again, he doubted it could lie to him.
Beasts were instinctually submissive to other beasts which were clearly superior to them, and there was no way a rank 6 beast would ignore the presence of a rank 7, 8, and 9 beasts to boast itself the strongest, but then again if he went by this logic, wasn\'t he implying that in this entire forest, he had killed the only rank 9 beast and that there were no rank 7 or 8 beasts.
Feeling confused and unable to arrive at a reasonable answer, Seth asked the beast for directions to the nearest human settlement, and after listening to several of its roars, he decide to mount it and send it speeding off toward the massive settlement it had mentioned
In a forest which supposedly contained a rank 6 beast as the strongest, Seth initially had no intention of finding a mount as he would probably kick it to death out of frustration at its slow pace, but after the tiger explained to him their close proximity to what should either be a village or town, Seth decided to lay on its wide back and bask under the rays of the warm morning sun.
With a roar of pride, the tiger sped off into the forest, proudly carrying Seth as its figure dashed as fast as it could possibly move.
While Seth rested on the tiger\'s back, he had no idea the chaos his casual actions were currently causing throughout the forest.
Normally beast fled from Seth\'s presence, and now in a situation where he was being carried by a powerful tiger which was running as fast as it could, one could imagine the fear and scramble among the beast as every beast began running away from him and in no time a beast tide was formed, one which continuously grew as the tiger charged forth.
With the roars far off in the distance and the tigers comfortable and steady back, Seth closed his eyes as he enjoyed the cool wind which blew over him, giving his nose a breather from the toxic smell of blood it had been subjected to.
Not up to an hour went by and Seth found the tiger began slowing down, releasing a roar as it let him know that they were close to their destination and could currently see it from their current position.
Seth had been planning to ignore the tiger\'s words, but then he heard it let out a whimper and his ears finally picked up the sounds of roars, running beasts, and the intense shoutings of humans, he decided to check it out.
Flipping himself up, Seth stood on the head of the Tiger and watched the scene happening in the distance, this scene answered some of his questions but birthed new ones, but at the moment there was a single thought in his mind,
"What is it with me and attracting beasts to Ukota town" he wondered as he stared at waves of beasts charging into the walls of the poor town, his arrival having created a beast tide.
.....some minutes earlier...….
Wake up to a lonely bed, eat, sit by the poolside, and read a book while waiting for whatever comes next, this was the new sad and meaningless life of Levy Sonia.
When an unregistered beast pops out from nowhere and appears in your jurisdiction, you can be sure that officials from the closest rank A city would come pouring in, daring to question you.
With every witness who could tell on her dead thanks to Seth\'s entry antics and the beast\'s deadly aura, Sonia had expertly handled the questions from the officials, and in the end, no accusation was layered on her and she had been declared innocent of having any relation with the rank 8 appearance, but this was a rank 8 beast, a beast whose strength was rated as being on the level of 2nd stage Kaiser, a beast who no one had caught sight of, just its presence in the far off distance had scores of people dropping dead.
When such a beast appeared, you can be sure a Kaiser would be appearing on site, and unfortunately for Sonia that Kaiser decided to question her.
Answering the Kaiser\'s questions had been no problem for Sonia, but in the end, her biggest secret had been revealed, for how could she hide her crumbling cultivation from the senses of such a powerhouse.
Worthless was the current term that aptly described the present Sonia, within minutes of her cultivation problem being discovered, orders stripping her of her position and its benefits came pouring down without mercy, the temple which she had ordered to be personally built for her had been confiscated under reasons of suspected embezzlement, her personal belongings had been seized with no explanation, and currently she was living in a small bungalow close to the mayor\'s mansion.
Sonia sighed as her eyes caught the movement of one of the cultivators watching her, at this point in time, she was alive most likely because of the words of one of her enemies or hopefully an ally.
Sonia had been told to stay put in her current accommodation while a decision concerning her crimes was made, crimes which only appeared when she was deemed a toothless tiger.
Sonia had just flipped to the next book in her hand when she began hearing loud cries popping up around town and then the ground began trembling, she would have liked to sweep her soulsense through the town and get an idea of what was happening, but the red collar on her wrist and neck wasn\'t going to let that happen.
Standing atop the wall that surrounded the bungalow, Sonia observed the rush which was happening throughout the town, and it wasn\'t long before her questions were answered by someone\'s loud cry of "beast tide", and seconds later the loud sounds of Ukota town walls being smashed into resounded throughout the town.
As someone who was once been in charge of Ukota town, Sonia was well aware that at the moment, a beast tide should be very impossible, especially with the death of the rank 7 beasts which had once occupied the forest, she calmly observed the panic and chaos happening in the town and felt the multiple powerful aura\'s which were just outside the city walls and instantly knew that Ukota town was about to meet its doom.
