Chapter 214 - Carcass Of Violent Viper Basilisk
Cules started to show more results. He was getting smaller, and his aura was getting suppressed by his magic. Currently, he had the size of a toddler, but for Aaron, it wasn't enough. Cules needs to get smaller, enough to rest on Ellena's shoulder.
Aaron smiled after a few minutes. Cules has achieved the desired size and will be ready to support Ellena.
"Cules. That's good! You are really a genius kid!" Aaron complimented Cules, as he was very pleased with the result. He also felt that emotional support would be necessary since not only would it raise the affection level, but it would also keep them both connected.
Numbers are just numbers; what's important is the sincere connection!
"Grooohhh~"
"Good boy!"
Aaron approached Cules and caressed his tummy. Since they were just the same size, Aaron was able to please Cules more than usual.
"Grooohhh~"
As Cules was getting more pleased, Aaron couldn't help but smile widely, sincerely feeling the joy of Cules's presence.
A few minutes later, when time flies, Aaron stopped what he was doing and stood up.
"How about we start training, Cules? Do you want to train?" Aaron asked.
"Grooohh~"
"You want to? Hohoho... I didn't expect you to be optimistic about training. Alright, let's go!"
Aaron led Cules through the training. Their training wasn't actually about fundamentals. Since both of them didn't need those, their training is about being predators in the wild.
Despite being small, Cules swiftly moved through trees, jumped through rocks, and even leaped above unnecessary monsters.
Their goal was to get into the more dense part of the woods. Since they were not that exposed to humans, stronger monsters from stronger dungeons would appear there.
And just as expected, Aaron and Cules encountered a giant green snake. It was 25 meters tall and also had a diameter of 3 meters. It was the perfect target for them.
"Cules! I will activate Delayed Blast and Beam Electric. You rush to the peak, then unleash your strongest attack. I will catch you if you fall!"
This is the training Aaron wanted to give to Cules. Because it will be a matter of survival in fights, Cules must be used to his full potential.
The giant snake noticed Cules and was interested in seeing him. It even made an expression as if it had a smug face when it saw Cules's aggressive movements and expression.
'It was underestimating Cules. I guess monsters can be trash too.'
Cules moved swiftly, dashed to the sides, then unleashed a magic that would enable him to leap over the snake.
The snake hissed, but before it could attack Cules, Aaron's magic had already activated, dealing massive damage and causing it to lose a significant portion of its health.
Currently, it wasn't unprepared for the movements of Cules on its body, and as a result, it spewed a strong green acid on its body, but Cules dodged it.
It hissed one more time as if screeching in unbearable pain.
Of course, it was acid. Even if it was a snake, it would still be vulnerable since its outer body wasn't made for acid.
Cules dodged again, even though it was having a hard time moving on its tall body. When he was above the peak, he leaped, then created a massive ball of energy. It didn't have a literal color, but the pressure was making a white color visible.
Then, when he was finished making it, he unleashed it to the snake's head at the same time when he was falling.
The head of the snake exploded into bits. Blood splattered and rained down on the dense woods with Cules, falling into the ground.
When Aaron noticed that Cules finally made a killing move, he created a softball to catch him.
[Cotton Basin]
Cules was successfully caught by Aaron without any injury.
'I guess that monster was at least an A at the best. It was still not S, but it was strong since it resisted my attacks.' Aaron assessed things when the fight finished.
Also, the body of the snake fell violently to the ground, making a loud thud through the whole woods.
Aaron creepily smiled as he saw the monster finally dead. He approached the body and checked the quality. Fortunately, only the head was damaged, and the skin and scales weren't.
'It means my magic attacks were weaker than Cules's. What a lame.'
Aaron opened the window for the Trader System, then assessed the value of the material. Without worrying about drying it, he targeted the material, and in an instant, the material disappeared and appeared in the window.

'I think it was a good price. This system is really helpful. Now, I should just upload it!'
When Aaron posted the item he was selling, within just a second, notifications bombarded him with the requests of potential clients. Seeing it, he couldn't help but think of exploiting it.
'Auction will be better for this one since it has a high-demand rate.'
Aaron clicked the auction option for the price and in an instant, it was moved into the auction hall.

TheBeaterSon: WOW... THIS IS AMAZING! I WANT THIS QUALITY OF VVB!
Bear_with_me: IS THIS REALLY AUTHENTIC THAT THIS CAME FROM THE HEART WORLD? WAS THE OWNER OF THIS SHOP A NOBLE DEMON?
Is^_^Mile: I THINK SO. BUT THIS ONE, I WILL BE THE ONE WHO'LL BUY THIS!
---
A law-defying system. Even he was curious about it, he didn't show any more interest in it. Right now, he has learned another credible piece of information.
Only demons who are noble can get into this world. And also, since most of them had to have a vessel body, they must be related to souls or some parasitic ability of demons to incarnate bodies.
'This one is helpful! I could buy the demon tracker in an instant!'
"Let's go, Cules! Let's hunt another one. I will buy that tracker immediately."
"Groooh~"
Then, they all left the damaged part of the woods and continued getting deeper.. With the auction still ongoing, Aaron would be pleased if he discovered that the auction resulted in 1200 coins as the final bid.
