In a room filled with candles, darkness shadowed the figure of a middle-aged man. He wore a black suit, and he held a wooden cane in his right hand. In his left hand was a yellow paper.

"The explorers under Lucius manage to leave the Secret Realm? One of them is an A-rank swordsman with a Thunderstorm Bear. Hmmm...That's really interesting." The man chuckled. "It seems there would be another powerhouse that would rise from the human ranks in the future."

He looked at the messenger in front of him that was kneeling on the ground and asked.

"What's the name of that guy again?"

The messenger looked at the man with reverence and answered quickly. "F-Fein- Fein Bonifacio."

"From now on, you have to report to me every time he did something big, you understand?" The aged man caressed the rough beard on his chin.

"Yes sir!" The messenger saluted.

...

A wide room that houses luxurious design and screamed with extravagantness displayed the same scene as the one.

A beautiful woman that wore a golden crown on her head, sat on a throne that was imbued with diamonds, she perked up her ears and listened to her servant report the information regarding the progress of the Secret Realm.

"After the first group left, another group was sighted leaving the blue portal one month after them. Our informants told us that one of the two people is the heiress of the Vladimir Family." The servant said respectfully.

"You mean the first group that was almost wiped out? that incident had already become popular in the degu circle. I already know about the matter regarding Lucius' daughter, and her partner was the rising star in the Scientific community." The beautiful woman stood up from the throne.

The servant felt nervous, his forehead overflowed with sweat, and the mere presence of the queen and every one of her actions suffocated her.

Yes, the woman is the queen of a great kingdom. One of the factions that have close ties with the Vladimir Family. Queen Eliza, was a great ruler that managed to bring their dying kingdom to prosperity after 300 years of rule. Although she's only an A-rank degu user, her resourcefulness and leadership are what stood out from him. She even successfully recruited a few S-rank degu users on her side.The queen looked at the servant with a stoic face, "Bring me all the information regarding him and try to recruit him to our Kingdom when there's an opportunity." Her majestic voice echoed.

The servant turned complicated.

"B-but he was already affiliated with Viscount Lucius." He said hesitantly.

"Are you questioning my orders?" The queen smiled at him.

The servant felt cold all over his body, he knew that although the queen was smiling, it was just her facade. Scared for his own life, the servant responded quickly.

"I will do my best to recruit him, your majesty!"

Seeing this, the queen nodded her head. She was very particular about talents. And she saw how talented Fein is. Of course, she knew that doing this would annoy Lucius. But the two of them had already known each other for years, as long as she doesn't forcefully recruit him, it was fine.

...

"Lucius dug up a genius, rumors say that the human has a Legendary Beast as a pet." An old man with long silvery hair muttered.

Opposite him, is also an old man, his blond hair had covered his fully wrinkled face. On his left side sat a female enveloped in a gray robe that has a star pattern drawn on its back.

"We can't let another genius rise in Vladimir's faction, they already had Zukoa. We can't afford another one, worse he has a Legendary Monster at his side." The female grey robe said with her dry voice.

"Try to recruit him, if we can't have him on our side, then kill him." The old man said casually as if he was just talking about the weather."

"We are currently at war with the Demons, if anyone knew this, we would become the traitor of humanities."All of them became silent... Before the blond-haired old man broke the silence with his horse voice.

"It's fine as long as we do it silently."

...

Similar scenes played in the circle of high-ranking people of different factions. Fein didn't even know that he already entered the sight of High-ranking figures with his dazzling records. No matter how low-key he was, he won't be able to hide it any longer with him venturing into the Secret Realm. After all, everyone who could get a ticket was all special and him being in the same camp as the Blood Primogenitor didn't make it better. The majority of them were happy that another warrior could fight the demons, while some of them wants him dead, well mostly the enemies of the Vladimir Family.

The different factions that specialized in intelligence and news already disseminated the information to the whole community.

Fein obtained two titles after the information about him spread like a wildfire shocking the entire degu society, he became so popular that exaggerated rumors and stories about him were created. The two titles are Fein the 'Elite Explorer' anyone who could leave the secret realm would get this title and the other one was 'The Legendary Beast Tamer' which has become the awe of every degu user.

Only great families that could influence the entire continent could tame a Legendary Beast.

One person who managed to tame one had already subverted people's cognition. Greed, envy, awe, fear, and curiosity. These emotions were reflected in the people who knew the story.

...

A man sat quietly with his eyes closed. one can see a violet flame seeping out on his outer body that distorted the space around him.

Thud!

"Jackson this is bad!" The door burst open, and aman with glasses, wearing a white coat entered.

Jackson opened his eyes, the violet flames converged into his entire being.

"Jacob... Didn't I say that you shouldn't disturb me? I can feel it. Just one more month I can already ascend to S-rank."

"Fein Bonifacio is back, it seems Shawn has failed. There's a rumor circulating that he had already reached A-rank and he had a Legendary Beast beside him." Jacob said in one breath.

​ Jackson's face turned grim, "Damn it!"

His aura burst out from his body, and the metallic walls in the room crumbled into pieces.
