At night people can hear loud boiling and crushing noises accompanied by laughs every hour . It was an endless noise for the past few days .
There was a child that laid down breathing heavily holding a cat and making it drink his potion . " YEEEEEEES !!!! It works ! " Deamon gladly rubbed Kitti gently " Now I don't have to worry about you growing bigger . "
" You have no idea how hard it was when I saw you grow an inch I thought you were gonna grow very big . As a monster , the smallest size when you mature is as big as a cart and then I won't be able to pet you like this . "
Kitti had no concern about Deamon's worry but was more concerned about the pot that was filled with oozing liquid popping out . She tried to warn Deamon by meowing to him but " Oh sorry I'll put you down . "
Again she tried to call him out about the pot " What is it Kitti do you want back rubs ? " Kitti showed him an angry expression pointing at the pot .
" Uh oh ! " BOOM the shack exploded but luckily Deamon took Kitti with him preventing any injuries " Kitti are you okay ! I should have fixed everything before playing with you . "
The shack now in rumbles " It cost so much for all those herbs and stones but ... It was so worth it ... I made the recipe to prevent you from growing bigger . " Kitti stared at Deamon with a little resentment , sensing her emotions he replied " Don't worry you will get stronger faster but not bigger cause I don't want that . "
He rubs her cheeks and looks at the rumble again " Another failure ? " Kitti was confused about his disappointment . For the past few days, Deamon has only been experimenting on how to make an elixir that can prevent the size growth but not affect the power growth it was better than he expected though .
Kitti stared at the rumble and saw the pot stand. She meowed at Deamon pointing at the pot " What I thought it failed . "
She gave Deamon another meow questioning what he was experimenting on " Oh well I wanted to make a weaponized slime . " she made an even more confused expression " Well you see since it was only for a few hours I thought I might as well make the slime for me to control so I won't break my weapons by accident . I had to hold back the flow or else it will break and I have been using my fist for too long . "
She didn't care about it much and left to sleep . Deamon saw the slime staying still on the pot seemingly not alive " Hmm I need to learn to use it . "
He poked the slime thinking it was alive but after some consecutive pokes , nothing happened " Is it dead ? Then could controlling it be a lot easier ? "
He tried to take control using his chaotic flow . The slime stirred up showing signs of exploding " NO ! " he stopped the flow and retracted his hand " I can't control it using a chaos flow " he placed his hand on top of the slime .
" Okay let's try that " he tried to use a different flow causing the slime to stir smoothly forming a whirlpool .
' It worked I can't believe I used a harmonious kind of flow again after so long ... I have been slowing the flow of energy down so maybe I need to exercise to make it more controllable . '
He stared at the slime as if it was the perfect training tool " This thing was made from melting a lot of hard materials . " he made the flow extremely fast on his hand " So a little chaos mixed will be fine "
For the first time, he felt alive , unlike those times he had to hold back to avoid destroying his surroundings . A portion of the slime came to his control " I can still keep going . " his stream of energy became even faster .
He slowly took control of the entire pot of slime " Not only did I solve Kitti's growth problem I also solved my chaotic flow and perfected the harmonious flow . " feeling some weight suddenly disappear Deamon stretched his hands excitedly .
With the slime under his control and it could prevent his chaotic flow from breaking . The method was simple start with a harmonious flow and then match it with a chaotic flow .
The flow wasn't something innate but trained . So Deamon started with a weak flow learning to make mild phenomena like cold and warm air or a slight wind . Slowly the chaotic and harmonious flow was mastered and turned into chaos and harmony .
But every time there was a monster that attacked him he had to keep making the stream faster. He got so used to it that he could accidentally destroy a boulder if he made the stream move slightly at least that would be what he would feel .
He used the chaos so much that he was getting less familiar with harmony . And so he wanted to train using the slime as equipment for training to use both of them but for now , he is going to practice the harmony first . He laid down and made the stream flow smoothly . After a few minutes, he got too comfortable and fell asleep .
In the morning he woke up feeling refreshed ' Oh harmony I miss you so much '
He stretched his body and went to his tree hut the same one Kitti went to " The slime was a success and I can turn it into any weapons . " the slime under his control turned into many shapes and forms .
" With this , I can go monster hunting without destroying too much " the house he owns is attached to his big tree made of hardwood just like many architects of this world .
Grumble " But first breakfast . " he got Kitti and ran into town . He reaches the town and walks to a giant restaurant settled together with a giant tree because if monsters came the higher floors would be spared from any hits or rams . Of course , this only applies to weaker monsters .
" I want a small breakfast " Deamon took a seat by the counter while everyone else whispered behind . The section he sat on was for hunters and with his young appearance , they were surprised .
" Why is there a kid in here this is for hunters only . " he saw the short beastkins shivering when they approached Deamon " Are you an idiot that's the chaos master he could level the whole forest casually people said that when you see a child and a shivering beastkin he might be nearby . "
" Are you sure you weren't drunk ? How can a little kid like him level down the forest ? And why would a beastkin being afraid matter that beastkin is just the kid of the owner helping him out . " " If you are a newcomer don't pretend to be cool , that kid you're talking about killed a monster twice the size of this restaurant and punched twenty big trees like this together with it . "
" As if " he drank his drink and slammed it to the table " I will show him the kids section . " the hunter walked to Deamon's seat " Here's your order " a beastkin served a plate bigger than the plate set on the incoming trouble maker .
Beastkins are species that live with humans they are generally like humans only humans are an evolved species of the apes and were called humans .
" Hey , kid the kid's section is that way . " ' Another newbie another nuisance ' Deamon punched him off the restaurant through a window and ate his food feeding Kitti some of it .
" Hey that's an infant frost tiger , isn't it ? " Kitti essentially looks more like the cat beastkins when they were a baby kitten but when she grows older she would look more like a tiger and grow ice blue claws .
" That is the chaos master's interest he likes to have a monster as a pet . " " That's crazy a frost tiger is simply too scary I wasted a lot of potions just so I could kill one . "
Deamon paid the bill and left the restaurant and went to the guild to find some monsters he could hunt . Without any problems he left the guild and ran to the forest with a cart arriving at a rocky area .
' I should try not to destroy the forest because I was angry ' a dire wolf appeared and stood on a boulder ' With this slime I can use my long-sealed techniques . ' he crouched slowly , turned the slime into a katana, and fixed his stream to follow up the technique .
[ sword set ]
He jumped and twisted his body parallel to the ground . The wolf took the chance and jump from the ground baring its fangs .
[ Horizon blade ]
He slashed with the katana as the force made from the movement of the blade flew out of the blade . The wolf didn't see anything because the force was invisible and cut between its teeth down to its tail .
Deamon looked at the minimized effect and smiled at the same time started his descent to the floor . He used harmony to let him fall down the ground like he was sliding a steep slope.
" Dire wolf doesn't have much worth other than the meat so there won't be a problem with this one . " he packed the loot and threw it on the cart with Kitti on a safety basket covered with glowing patterns .
The katana turned into a small smile and left Deamon smiling " It didn't break and there was no problem in keeping it in shape " Now for more prey"
Crash , a black shadow surrounded Deamon's surroundings " What ? " " Human , you are interesting " Deamon turned around and saw a black dragon standing behind him ' Such a big dragon yet no noise !? '
He examined the dragon and stared at his eye-catching traits red eyes , black scale , red hair on his back and mysterious purple runes tattooed on to his body ' Monster king '
Monsters king the monster higher than giant monsters . The dire wolf he killed was only a small monster a giant monster could wreak havoc in the town he ate breakfast at . Then the monster king just like the name and their other name called ancient calamity .
' I remember now the ancient calamity black dragon who resisted enchanted weapons his only secondary weakness . He is also very intelligent . ' Deamon stared at Kitti hoping he could see a rare sight but instead Kitti was yawning and wanted to sleep .
" Awww Kitti you brave little girl " Deamon dashed to her and patted her gently adoring her while she was annoyed and didn't care about the fact that an ancient calamity is beside her .
" I commend both of your courage human and young monster . " wishing for their attention Ururus added a laugh but all he could get was Deamon stroking Kitti's head gently and her slowly drifting to sleep from boredom and annoyance .
" Oww right you are still here , the town will be in trouble if you go there so I need to kill you . " he dashed to the trees and ricochet to the sky . Ururus lifted his head seeing Deamon covering a portion of the sun .
" The ancient calamity Ururus is said to be vulnerable to enchanted items but because those are rare then only the sunlight can weaken him but the black dragon has a red hair covering its body so it offsets that weakness which only works when they are young ... though he's probably weak to hotter flames . " he strengthened the follow and absorbed the light into his sword .
' Darn it the sunlight is too little but the slime is going to pop if I don't do anything ' Deamon slashed the blade down striking it to Ururus's hair but the hair was a protective shield used to avoid the sun so the slash only trimmed the hair off .
' Oh no ' the sword on his hand broke apart turning to dust ' What do I do ? ' he felt a threat as he sees dark flames on Ururus's mouth " Oh no " Deamon used the harmonious flow on his clothes and quickly connects harmony and chaos.
The blast shot at him and he dropped to the ground like a squirrel feeling his clothes still intact " Oh my god they're fine " he touch his clothes made of expensive fabric and the hood was still fine .
" Hmm I can use the flow on my clothes as long as I don't make it not too destructive like the harmonious flow ... Then that means I have been using harmony unconsciously . No wonder my chaos was stronger the harmony was balancing the chaos . I always wonder why my body was so strong in the first place " he felt deep into his mind and found it .
" Okay let's do this again " he retrieved his mastery of harmony and combined it with his chaos mastery . As if the wind blew his clothes up his hood raised and so did his jacket and shirt ' Great ... but I don't have anything to use as a weapon . '
He looked at Ururus as he blasted another one at him . Deamon boosted his body and looked behind to see Kitti unfazed ' I thought I could see her scared ' Deamon crossed his hands forming a defending stance and forming a flow on his surroundings forming a hard shield .
The blast blew at him but was shielded " Human you are good to be able to avoid my attacks " Deamon opened his hands and with the familiarity , he grabbed the air and started fused chaos and harmony " Yep and now it's my turn "
He slashed down with his hand whilst forming a sword using the newly created slime made from the fusion " So try my moves instead " he ran to it and started walking in the air " Alright here I come " he took a big push into the air and flew to Ururus's body .
" First move ... a STEP !! " he landed vertically on Ururus's head and pushed him back jumping to the air " Second move ... a flash " he took a hint of sunlight to the tip of his blade and magnified it with his chaos and harmony .
He pointed the tip to flash a stronger replica of the sunlight blinding Ururus temporarily " Final move ... a slash ! " shining his entire blade to the sun he strengthened it with fire like a burning star .
[ Fire technique : Solar flames ]
He slashed down the dragon and landed on the ground with smoke dispersed surrounding the area . He coughed thinking about Ururus's body .
" Hmm , where is Ururus ? " behind a giant tree was Ururus in a smaller form ' So lucky I nearly died there , what is wrong with that kid ? '
Because Ururus have a lot of runes written on his body he can use them to strengthen his body but also turn himself into a smaller form as part of the ones he gained ' I should thank myself for finding this enchantment that I called useless . '
" Found you " Deamon paused when he saw Ururus in a smaller form " Mmmh you're so cute how did you do it ! How come you look so adorable now . " Deamon grabbed Ururus and drop down .
" Kitti looks at how cute he is . " he showed Kitti Ururus while she looks at him in disdain " Oh right Ururus is an ancient calamity so he probably smells . "
Deamon grabbed a bucket from the cart and went to a nearby lake " Alright time to wash the ancient calamity " Ururus the whole time was extremely terrified because Deamon was still not tired after launching that attack .
Kitti went to the cart and opened the bag Deamon bought . Deamon came back to the cart after washing Ururus and saw Kitti's tail poking out of his bag ' Is she finding snacks ? She looks cute now . ' he imagined Kitti pulling out some small meat cubes and chewing them.
But Kitti pulled out the potion he made " Isn't that the elixir I made ? " Kitti pointed at Ururus " Hmm this is the ancient calamity but since he's so small and adorable I don't want him to get bigger . "
Kitti only realized that the small dragon was Ururus she initially thought it was a cute dragon that Deamon found wandering and was giving him the potion because she didn't want to have a growing dragon beside her " But will this work ? Only one way to find out . "
He shoved the elixir into his mouth forcing him to drink it . Then the trio traveled back to the town with Ururus foaming and loot filling up the cart " Ah what a good day it is today I learned how to control my flow and Ururus is a small little dragon after drinking that potion . "
Reaching town he went to the trading hall and threw his loot on the ground waiting for them to compute the total sales . Everyone saw Ururus but didn't think much of it until " Ururus wake up I still haven't asked you what you like to eat . " .
Ururus the dragon with black scales , red eyes and mysterious runes surrounding it . But they all thought ' Nah it can't be the ancient calamity is very big and that dragon is just an infant . '
" Oh and if you see scorched wood that was me . " for the hall where hunters gather some of them need to report their damage . This was for people who encountered post-battle areas from reporting reports to the hall of a monster capable of causing the damage .
It may seem that the rule can be exploited but hunters have to be honest despite being arrogant " Umm we will take note of that . " some hunters didn't believe it because they haven't seen Deamon cause such damaged but some remembered and recognized his strength .
The time when an ancient calamity was repelled with heavy injuries caused by Deamon " Umm " " Yes ? " Deamon turned his head scaring the receptionist " Can you register that dragon ? "
" Sure " Deamon left the hall after getting the coins and ran to the restaurant after dropping the cart with Kitti on his hood and Ururus in his hands .
" Waiter I want to order your all-in special . " he let Kitti leave his hood and hugged Ururus " Come on little guy what do you like to eat . " ' I can't believe this kid he made me unable to return to my original form . '
Deamon patted Ururus happily and showed him the food " Come on little dragon go and eat some . " ' But I won't surrender just because of this I have survived under the sun , the hair protecting me fell off but I grew more and being small won't stop me . '
...
" This ish sho good " Ururus ate every food Deamon fed him with satisfaction " Your more adorable than Kitti she won't even make a smile no matter what I give her . " Kitti was trying to sleep on Deamon's hood " How could she not love this they taste so yummy . "
Deamon combed Ururus's hair happily as he took food by himself eating them without minding his hair .
'It's so nice to have a cute pet like Ururus he wasn't so adorable but now he acts like a hungry puppy . ' Kitti was annoyed by Ururus's talking and got out of the hood climbed over Deamon's shoulder and attacked him .
Ururus felt hurt and planned to talk back until it felt a dense suppression emitted from Kitti . This ability was something she learned when dealing with Deamon . It was pure intimidation but this would reflect deeply on her actual strength .
And with addition to being a frost tiger her attribute of cold works perfectly with her intimidation which made Ururus shiver in both fear and cold " I'm sorry for talking too loud . " he cowered under Deamon's jacket pulling the sides to warm himself .
' That was so adorable !!! ' he kept himself from squeezing Ururus and let him pull the jacket closer to himself . Kitti returned to Deamon's hood snuggling to sleep . Ururus felt the "danger" leave and left the cover of the jacket ' What was that how is she so scary ? ' Ururus got his face poked with food Deamon held " Come on eat up till you're full . "
Attracted by both taste and smell Ururus opened his mouth and remembered the chilling fear that came from Kitti . He nibbled on the rest of the food ' You look like a hamster ' he messed Ururus's hair with his hands till he was finished eating .
' He doesn't like to eat vegetables alone but he was fine with eating it together with meat . ' Deamon noted what Ururus likes and ordered a take out " Okay you can have some food later " he patted Ururus and carried him to his house .
' He's so cute but he is heavy though smaller than Kitti . ' Deamon put the bag of food beside staring at Ururus who fell asleep in a basket with a small roll-up mattress .
' They both look so peaceful sleeping ... But isn't this Kitti's bed ? ' Deamon thought of her slightly bigger size and went with it ' I should get her a bigger bed I guess . ' he took a blanket and let Ururus sleep under it ' Should I check his teeth ? '
' But seeing him sleep so peacefully is so adorable . ' Deamon scratched the dragon's hair with one finger giving Ururus a little comfort
Deamon combed Ururus's hair happily and took food for himself . He suddenly felt some cold air coming from his hood ' Must be Kitti making her body cold . ' he touches her fur and finds it cold .
" Must be rare for her " he replaced Ururus with Kitti hugging him in his arms " Your heavy but smaller than Kitti and more adorable . " he repeated a few words and felt a cold wind blowing in his window . The weather of planets in this world is always unpredictable so there were no warnings and food is always stocked that was a rule for survival .
Ururus shivered and woke up on Deamon's hood " It's cold here " " Oh right Kitti is always comfortable at the extreme temperature she is a cat and a frost tiger . " Deamon lifted the dragon and covered it with his jacket " Warm "
Deamon looked up ' I wanna go and see what is happening but Ururus doesn't have a bed . ' Deamon went to his bed bringing Kitti with him and left the two monsters there and his jacket " Okay stay here "
He went to his wardrobe and got another jacket only this time the line was blue instead of gold . He jumped out climbing the trees to take a view " Woah a snowstorm "
He held a branch and balanced a foot on a small branch above the tree " I should deal with a snowstorm or it'll get too cold for living " he took out his leftover slime and thought of a solution .
" Sword is not an option since this is spinning than a turning fan " he shaped a shuriken to have its sides bent. He made the shuriken float and then shaped out another shuriken making both spin in different directions .
" Okay now throw them to the sea " he threw both one going down and another going up . The two shurikens started to suck air up like an electric fan making them converge on the space between them .
As it continues to fly the land under them got colder and when they reach the shore the sea started to freeze " Hmm good another disaster averted " Deamon looked at the frozen sea section with a smile .
" Hmm but I should try harder in using the slime floating the slime is still hard to maintain . " Deamon went down the tree grabbing on branches and vines like a monkey " What happened to Kitti "
Frost tigers love being warm because they have extreme temperature preferences like normal cats they like the heat but in addition to their body they also love the cold just as much as flame panthers love the heat .
Deamon reached his house and looks at Kitti who was just looking at Ururus " Hello Kitti it's winter day " although Deamon diverted a part of the snowstorm the rest of the snowstorm sipped in to slowly cover the ground with snow .
He has been doing this every time there was an extreme weather change which occurs very randomly thanks to monsters that roams the planets spitting out their devastating attacks .
And powerful monsters can live longer and refuse to have offspring afraid that they will give birth to something that will be stronger than them while species like the frost tigers raise offspring due to limited lifespan .
Ururus was one of the long-living ones and Kitti was the weak species but Deamon loves both of them because of their personalities . Kitti is strong and lazy while Ururus is strong yet a glutton .
Deamon dived to his bed grabbing Kitti and dropping her on his neck ' Feels cold ' Kitti gets up and leaves Deamon while he thinks about the slime ' Recreating the slime ain't too hard I can even mess it up any way I want . '
' Though this is so much better than punching and throwing I can practice weapon mastery without breaking anything ... The horizon blade was just a weak version of the real horizon blade . '
Deamon felt his bones very stiff from the lack of exercise ' I hate being good at chaos and harmony ... the chaotic flow I have been practicing went to a very high level that my body is being enhanced by it along with the harmony ... Must I be hit by a meteor just to loosen a bone ? '
Deamon was able to move normally but running very fast was not an exercise because of his body ' But I can't become sloppy I don't want to get rusty in doing this I already mastered the use of the flow so I should keep doing it . '
His complaints were never solved only Kitti who was unfazed by his threat level could stay beside him without shaking in fear like other monsters and Ururus was just really stupid to feel the threat , unlike Kitti .
He looked at the snow outside thinking about how to throw a snowball without letting chaos affect it ' Chaotic flow or chaos it's the same ... yet I'm the one who practiced using this method . ' Deamon closed the curtains to the primitive house .
' At least this house is sturdier than a cave , wouldn't be able to cut it if I never had the experience to use the chaotic flow . ' Deamon went out to see snow covering the ground " I can't believe harmonious flow can't weaken my body I made it work perfectly with chaos so now I became more skilled randomly . "
Deamon frowns and uses chaos and harmony together on his body " I'm too good to even with the curse that weakens my body every time I strengthen it . " Deamon complained at the curse being too weak .
" Wish I was good at debuffing my body " Deamon looked above the trees to see the clouds and a little sunshine " Hmm I have been moving so many times this place isn't even fun ... Should I go find an isolated place ? that would be lonely and boring . " he throws a snowball out of boredom .
Deamon heard footsteps on the snow " Uhm may I have directions to the chaos master's house ? " Deamon looked at her thinking ' Is this person someone who is looking to be my disciple again or are they planning to trick me by saying I was their tribe's blood ? '
Regardless of intention he pointed opposite to his house " That way " ' I have a family and I am absolutely frightened of my younger brother . ' Deamon shivered from fear as his action contributed to his lie .
' I guess I am moving away this time ' Deamon went inside and found Ururus sleeping and Kitti grooming herself " Okay Kitti we are moving away from this place again " Deamon opened his wardrobe and stuffed his hoods and pants in a suitcase .
" Ugh, my mattress " Deamon took the mattress and blanket to squeeze the air out " This is gonna take forever to fluff properly . " he folded the blanket and the mattress " How the hell did he do it so easily running around with two suitcases that could fall of his grip ? "
Deamon packed his clothes and blankets together and a folded mattress " I'll have to go somewhere far away again . " he packed his things and thinks about the techniques he had learned .
' Won't I be able to run very quickly without hurting my passengers because I can stretch the influence of the chaos and harmony now ? ' he spread the influence on the ground and punched it .
His eyes widened to see the ground still intact except for the area not surrounding it ' It worked ' he clenched his fist excited to move ' Never been this excited before ' he took Ururus on his hood and sewed on a kangaroo pocket on his shirt placing Kitti in it .
" Okay let's go "
