The entire area was pretty much deserted when Satoshi got back to his senses. When he started aimlessly making his way in one direction, he wasn't thinking about anything at all. There were no signs of intelligent life anywhere, not even beasts could be seen as he trudged his way through the vast arid plains.

"Sigh~ why are there no beasts here? And where did everyone go?" Satoshi scratched his head in slight frustration. But then again, he didn't resort to changing his directions since there was no use in doing so. He's got a whole ten kilometers ahead of him. If he walked to and fro the rest of the way, surely he'd meet one or two beasts, right?

Not really.

With every step, Satoshi felt an inkling feeling that something was wrong with the place. Not only were there no beasts nor people in sight, but he felt an annoying prickly feeling on his nape— as if warning him of the danger that lurked nearby. It was an odd sense of instinct, giving him the chance to escape whatever was ahead of him. Still, being the curious teenager he was, Satoshi continued on, walking through the plains like a nomad in the middle of the journey of a lifetime. One step. Two steps. Three steps. There was nothing that could change Satoshi's mind despite the ever-increasing feeling of the intense pressure the further he walked forward.

"Dex, analysis." After fifteen minutes of walking in the same direction without seeing anyone or anything, Satoshi couldn't hold back anymore. Something was definitely weird in the direction where he's headed and he's determined to find it out no matter what.

Still, there's no harm in asking a reliable entity like Dex so Satoshi brought the question up.

[I've detected a huge influx of gravity up ahead. It is a hundred times stronger than Earth's gravity. I presume someone with a gravity-type superpower is fighting a strong beast there]

[I also detect a large creature, almost reaching the size of the Statue of Captivity. However, judging from its power, it is not a Representative. As such, it is not a threat to you, Satoshi.]

"I see, thanks, Dex. I get it you mean we can take care of the situation by ourselves?" Satoshi confirmed. The words of his father still rang loudly in his mind and there was no way he'd disobey it unless absolutely necessary.







[Yes, you can win against the beast... however, the beast is still strong, so you might want to keep your guard up at a

all times, Satoshi.]

"All right, I'll be sure to remember that." Satoshi excitedly responded. At long last, he'd finally meet one of the beasts in the Beast Dimension. A huge part of him wanted to tame the monster no matter how weak Dex deemed it was. That's why he still looked forward to welcoming it as his familiar.

After checking and reconfirming that there was no one around him (even asking Dex if there are people or beasts nearby), Satoshi decided to summon one of his trusty familiars— Ghast, the portal-maker familiar.

"Ghast, I'm counting on you," Satoshi called out, giving it specific instructions to teleport him nearby to the specified location... and not to teleport him too near since the people there might be suspicious of his presence.

"As far as we know, that person fighting the monster may be from another Dimension so we have to approach this with the utmost caution," Satoshi told Ghast even though it was more than enough to command him using his mind.

Ghast seemed to nod before it formed a purplish hazy portal in front of Satoshi. After bowing toward Ghast and not forgetting to thank him, Satoshi stepped foot inside the portal.

Fwooosh~

A cold gust of wind greeted Satoshi as soon as he got out of the portal, causing him to inadvertently shield his eyes to avoid dirt in his eyes. Just then, he heard a screech— which was actually the source of the cold gust of wind and the intense aura that encompassed the vicinity.

"What was that?" Satoshi asked, seeing a black figure from afar. Even though he asked the question, there was no denying that the beast in question looked like a dragon— a black dragon, to be exact.







"Dex, do you have any information on that beast?" Satoshi asked since Dex hasn't told him anything regarding the beast.

[The beast is called the Black Winged Dragon— one of the most powerful beasts in this portion of the Beast Dimension. Some could even say that it is the top predator in here. Its regular diet includes red salamanders, as well as blue salamanders. But sometimes, it would feed on other prey as well depending on its mood and taste.]

[Its tough hide is immune to elemental attacks. It can only be damaged by physical attacks.]

[Based on its stats, it is at least SS-Grade]

"What? An SS-Grade?! And you're telling me that I won't have any problems with taking it down whatsoever?" Satoshi's eyes went wide with shock.

After all, the Black Winged Dragon is at least on par with his White Lion. And Satoshi knew in himself that if he tamed it, it would become even stronger.

"Can we really take it down?" Satoshi asked for the second time since he wasn't fully convinced in Dex's confidence.

[Yes, Satoshi, you'd be able to take it down with a bit of difficulty... but you can do it. I'm sure of it.] Dex assured him.

While observing the Black Winged Dragon, that's when Satoshi realized that it actually got someone pinned on the ground— a person, grunting in pain. While that person was pinned, a second person was trying to fend the Black Winged Dragon off but his efforts were all for naught.

Satoshi didn't need any telling twice. At this rate, the man which was trapped between the Black Winged Dragon's claws would die a painful death. And that would leave a bad taste in Satoshi's mouth since he didn't want to see anyone dying in front of him.

With a wave of his hand, Satoshi summoned Lighter, his unquenchable flames familiar. "Lighter! I choose you!" He declared.
