Kim Jin Seok approached Satoshi as soon as the unofficial beast tournament was over. "Congratulations, your Alpha Red Salamander is really strong. Where did you find him?" Kim Jin Seok asked, extending his had for a celebratory handshake.

"I caught it somewhere." Satoshi vaguely answered, obliging with the handshake while jerking his thumb to the back. He had no idea how he'd be able to explain that he actually got it from another dimension but that's beside the point. At the very least, no one found out that the Alpha Red Salamander wasn't actually the beast he tamed during the entire exercise.

"Altered Types are incredibly rare, you know, not to mention your beast is an Alpha— which means it's exponentially larger and stronger compared to its smaller counterpart. You and your Alpha Red Salamander can go so far, Satoshi. As a beast tamer, I think you're more than qualified to join the official beast tournament."

"Beast tournament? What's that?" Satoshi asked even though the answer to the said question was completely obvious.

"It is held every year in America." Lydia butted in. "I'm going to train my Frost Elephant and join the beast tournament. Although... I don't think I'll be able to join this year." Lydia commented.

"That's right, it's a beast tournament held every year in America. But before that, there's the beast auction where rare beasts are sold. This is one of the events which is famous around the world. Most beast tamers would gather in the beast auction in hopes of landing a rare beast. From what I could remember, some Altered Types were sold last year." Kim Jin Seok said. "If you want to fill in your roster with rare beasts before joining the beast tournament, you should take a look a the beast auction first. Now that we're on the topic, are you going to join the beast tournament, Satoshi?"

Silence fell on the crowd as they expectantly stared at Hajime. Of course, they already concluded that Satoshi would join the beast tournament, considering that he and his Alpha Red Salamander won the unofficial beast tournament spontaneously held here.

"Ah er... I'll think about it." Satoshi once again responded with a vague answer.

"Yeah, you should definitely join, your Red Alpha Salamander is strong, Satoshi," Hiroshi added while everyone nodded in agreement.







Everyone except Lydia, who eyed Satoshi a little suspiciously.

"What is it?" Satoshi asked, wondering if there was something on his face that caused her to look at him a bit weirdly.

"I saw your tamed beast while you were in the process of catching it... and all I could say is that... it's not the Alpha Red Salamander at all." Lydia finally called out. She had been waiting for this moment, ever since Satoshi brought out the Alpha Red Salamander.

"What are you talking about?"

"I saw it... it was a Black Winged Dragon, right?" Lydia continued. "I've seen one of them before. I saw you tame it." Lydia continued, giving Satoshi a squint.

The silence that befell everyone was entirely different compared to when they awaited Satoshi's response about joining the beast tournament. Just like Lydia, they all stared at Hajime as if he had done something wrong.

It was believed that the Black Winged Dragon is one of the rarest species of beasts in the Beast Dimension since they've only seen one in existence. That Black Winged Dragon is the apex predator of that land, and no one could touch it due to how powerful it was.

For years, a few beast tamers tried the insurmountable task of taming the Black Winged Dragon but no one managed to do so. Of course, how could anyone tame a beast when it's not exactly a beast? Then again, no one knew about the real identity of the Black Winged Dragon except a few select people.

That's why the Black Winged Dragon was deemed uncatchable. A lot of beast tamers who wanted a strong beast in their roster had already attempted to tame the Black Winged Dragon but they couldn't do so. Some even almost died when they came face to face with such a powerful beast.

"D-did you really catch the legendary Black Winged Dragon?" Kim Jin Seok asked. He couldn't believe that someone managed to tame the uncatchable beast.







"Yeah, I saw it with my own eyes. You can't lie to us, Satoshi." Lydia then smiled. "Come on, you shouldn't hide such glorious achievement."

A sigh left Satoshi's mouth. It's not like he wanted to hide the existence of the Black Winged Dragon per se, but he'd rather hide her identity than reveal it to everyone else.

"All right then," Satoshi told everyone as he reached towards his Orb Oboros. Before he summoned Ryu Ryoko (the Black Winged Dragon) though, he had to make sure that she was in her dragon form instead of her human form. That way they'd be able to hide her identity and not cause a panic towards the fellow beast tamers present.

'Ryoko, can you hear me?' Satoshi asked.

'Yes?'

'I'm going to take you out for a little bit. Make sure you don't revert to your human form no matter what, okay?' Satoshi continued, hoping that Ryu Ryoko would at least agree to his wishes.

'Sure, I can do that.' She responded.

Without further ado, Satoshi called out for Ryu Ryoko to come out. He closed his eyes for fear that Ryu Ryoko would come out in her human form and mess with him but fortunately, she came out as a Black Winged Dragon in all her form and glory.

The massive size of the Black Winged Dragon caused everyone to step back a little bit as they admired its overwhelming presence. Ryu Ryoko, who was surprised to see so many people, let out a roar. 'Did Satoshi want me to show off?' She asked herself.

'No, you don't have to do that, Ryoko.' Satoshi vehemently rejected the thought in his mind. "Still... why do your scales look a lot more different? Did something happen?"

'I awakened it when you brought me under your wing, Satoshi. That's why I'm forever grateful to you. This is my true form, exclusive only to our bloodline.' Ryoko continued.
