Chapter 596: Unstoppable Together
“What else can my dearest Dumpy do?” Leo asked, his tone changing remarkably now that he knew what Dumpy was really capable of.
“His poison is another thing you should know about. Even as an infant, a single drop of Dumpy’s poison can kill over 50,000 adult humans. It’s corrosive enough to melt epic-ranked weapons and armor with ease.” Raya continued, as immediately an image formed in Leo’s mind where Dumpy just simply spat at a bank locker to melt the metal away.
“It can melt epic weapons? How did I not know any of this? That’s terrifying….. wait can it only melt metal or also flesh? Because I let him relax on my shoulders everyday–” Leo asked as Raya let out a deep sigh.
“The ancient swamp frog can secrete poison from both its fang-like teeth and also from its skin.
If Dumpy deems someone a threat, it can easily kill them with a simple touch and hence ancient swamp frogs are usually only touched by their masters and no-one else” Raya said, as Leo felt shivers all over his spine.update Ƀy N0vᶒl1st.c0M
He had been mistreating Dumpy without a care in the world, however, one misstep and Dumpy could potentially kill him with just a touch.
“Upon full maturity,” Raya added, “the Ancient Swamp Frog produces the most potent venom in the universe. Assassin clans pay fortunes to get their hands on even the smallest amount. But it takes them close to 25 years to reach full maturity. Dumpy for now is still an infant.”
Leo swallowed hard. His frog wasn’t just rare—it was a walking apocalypse.
“I had no idea Dumpy was this… dangerous.” Leo said, as Raya continued with her explanation.“At around six months of age, they grow so large they must learn size-shrinking techniques to conserve their energy. Otherwise, they would burn through their fat reserves too quickly. That’s why you’ll rarely see them at their full size unless they’re in battle.
However, until they learn that ability you must feed them a lot of food daily so that they can keep growing larger without becoming malnourished” Raya instructed, as Leo immediately noted that he needed to feed Dumpy lots of food.
If there was one thing he did not lack as a lord, it was money and the ability to procure food and hence he was not too worried about this part.
“And finally,” Raya said with a breath, “though Ancient Swamp Frogs can’t fly, they can leap massive distances. In their full form, they can jump across entire countries in as few as ten steps, making them one of the fastest forms of transport in the universe.”
Leo stood there, stunned, unable to speak. “You’re telling me Dumpy could cover an entire country in ten leaps?” It was almost too much to take in. His little frog was shaping up to be one of the most formidable creatures he’d ever heard of.
“Yes, in every way, shape, or form, Dumpy is an unbelievable creature with extraordinary untapped potential.
However, to make him obey you in the future, you must form a deep bond with him now.
I would highly suggest that you purchase a beast tamer’s manual on how to train an ancient swamp frog for a cost of 1700MP.
If trained properly, Dumpy can become a master level being in under 6 months and a Grandmaster level being in under 2 years.
So please…. Don’t let him go to waste” Raya finished, her tone gentle but firm.
The price of 1700 MP was pretty steep, but listening to the last line where Raya claimed that Dumpy could become a master level being in under 6 months and a Grandmaster in under 2, Leo felt like he could not take the risk of not developing such a strong future ally.
Hence, putting a stone on his heart, he decided to accept the price and place an order for the book.
“Great choice…. The item will be given to you within the game world when you log-in.
It will be only available for the duration of your gameplay and will not carry over as a physical copy in the real world–” Raya said, as Leo nodded on his end.
“Alright, thank-you for all your help today” Leo said, as he hung up the call.
As the line clicked, Leo leaned back against the wall, staring at nothing in particular as the weight of what he had just learned settled over him.
Dumpy was no ordinary frog. He was a force of nature and 100 times cooler than Luke and his Griffin.
“Hohoho, BrownPudding may be able to fly across the length of the Empire, but Dumpy can go from end to end 50 times in the same timeframe.
Hohoho, I love Dumpy” Leo said, feeling all giddy inside as he could not be more elated at having such a pet.
“Well, buddy,” Leo muttered under his breath, thinking of the small, rapidly-growing creature waiting for him back in the game, “looks like you’re a worthy companion for ‘TheBoss’ after all”
“In the future people will call us, The Boss and The Frog, Children will hear bedtime stories about us!!!
Men will cower in our name!!! and Cowards will pee themselves in our presence!!!
Together, we shall defeat Drogo and Anos, and then resurrect Master Ben!
Together, we will burn down StrongHaven and melt down their castle!
Together, we shall be unstoppable!” Leo said, clutching his fist in joy, as he could feel the adrenaline coursing through his veins.
He had been dissatisfied with Dumpy when he was born, but he was dissatisfied no longer.
His frog was awesome! And Leo swore to raise it with love and affection befitting a good boy.
