Chapter 587: Examination I

“Yeah… did you worship Lady Echidna and the other monster lords of Olympus?” Souta nodded and asked.

“I worship all the immortal beings of Olympus.” Igmun simply answered without hesitation.

‘Just as I thought. Igmun is like this even in the game. As long as you’re on the Olympus’ side, this guy will not treat you badly.’ Souta was satisfied. He then opened his mouth and asked, “I’m pretty confident with my skills but why did the legion of the monster lords not included in the legion ranking?”

Although he knew the answer, he still had to ask this question.

“It’s simple, it’s because they don’t have headquarters in Champion’s Den. I’m not discriminating against monsters but I think you understand what will happen if a low intelligence monster that only followed its god walked around a city.” Igmun said.

“Yeah, it will cause a panic.” Souta nodded in understanding.

Not all third evolution monsters were as intelligent as him and Doranjan. Doranjan was an exception because he was a dragon. And Souta was a rare case.

Yuko only has an intelligence of a child and she was pretty brutal to her opponent. Most of the monsters were savage and the ordinary people here didn’t belong to their monster lords. Since they had low intelligence they were easily provoked and caused a riot. They didn’t even know how to act in a city and will always cause trouble for the guards.

That’s why the legions of the monster lords weren’t in Champion’s Den.

Only high evolution monsters could converse properly.

Sometimes humans and demis couldn’t keep the greed in their eyes when looking at rare monsters. Body parts of rare monsters could be sold at high prices and some monsters could instinctively sense those greedy eyes.

Although God’s Continent was tolerant of monsters unlike the other continents, there’s still disparity between the two creatures. Their way of living had a huge difference.

“I’m glad that you understand it.” Igmun nodded at him.

“It’s nothing. I learned a lot of things living with humans and demis.” Souta shrugged his shoulder.

“Good. Then, let’s proceed to the examination.” Igmun said before he stood up. “Come, follow me.”

Souta stood up and followed Igmun outside the room. The two directly went to the stadium. While on their way, Igmun explained the examination to Souta.

“The examination is the most important thing as this will decide if we are going to accept you in our legion or not. Since you’re a third evolution monster, your strength must be equivalent to some A-rank or S-rank. So you’re going to take the examination of this level.” Igmun said, “We will test your strength, speed, and combat power. The test is simple so I’m going to ask what test you want to take. A-rank or S-rank?”

“I’m pretty confident so I’ll take S-rank,” Souta replied.

“Good. Then, you will have no problem as long as you pass the examination.” Igmun was satisfied at his answer.

Souta glanced at Igmun’s back. Of course, he wouldn’t join the banner of a monster lord in Olympus. Those legions hardly get any quests and the monsters were mostly staying in the territory of monster lords so it wasn’t beneficial to him.

It was actually good since he would receive tons of mana fruits but in return, he would hardly get any quest. The quest was his source of skill points, experience points, free attribute points, and cards. He wouldn’t exchange it for mere mana fruits.

“We’re here.”

In the stadium, dozens of examinations were ongoing. Some of the people had passed and some of them have failed. It was natural as not everyone was qualified to join a legion of a god.

A tall man with a pair of fox ears approached Souta and Igmun.

“This is your examiner, Manduk.” Igmun introduced.

Souta greeted Manduk in a polite tone. He didn’t need to boast nor show arrogance as it would only bring him trouble. It was better to treat people politely as long as they didn’t show hostility toward him.

Igmun began to explain Souta’s situation and Manduk listened with a serious expression.

“Mm. A monster. It’s my first time experiencing this.” Manduk nodded and he turned his attention to Souta.

“I’ll leave him in your care.” Igmun raised his hand before he turned around and left. There’s nothing he could do here as he wasn’t the examiner of this test so he should go back and complete his task.

“Igmun told me that you wanted to take an S-rank test. Is that right?” Manduk asked.

“Yes.” Souta nodded.

“It’s a good decision.” Manduk turned and pulled a huge square shape object in front of Souta.

The object was five meters tall and its color was pitch black. It has an oval shape metal in front of it.

“First, I will test your power. You just need to punch it with all of your strength. I’m warning you that you can’t use your energy as it will cause you to fail the exam.” Manduk paused before he continued, “Since you are a monster, I will explain the origin of this device to you. This object called Power Testament is made using Lord Typhon’s scale, one of the strongest monster lords in Olympus. I’m sure that I don’t have to explain who is Lord Typhon. Even in other lands, Lord Typhon is known by countless creatures out there.”

Souta nodded and didn’t say anything. In fact, he already knew this. If he used his best feram, the power of the scale would rebound to him.

Typhon had an energy reflection trait. His scales and exoskeleton armor had the power to reflect energy attacks.

Although this piece of scale was plucked from Typhon’s body, it still managed to contain his trait. In any sense, Souta was just a third evolution stage so the power within the scale was enough to rebound all of his energy and injured him.

‘This scale could be used to create a powerful red grade armor or even a dark grade artifacts that had an energy reflection skill.’ Saya’s voice sounded.

Souta nodded inwardly at her comment.

“With a little tweak using Lord Typhon’s scale we manage to create this device. We could measure your strength using this and if the reflection was activated it means that you used energy in your attack so don’t try to use energy no matter what. The consequences will be dire.” Manduk said.

“I understand.”

“Then, you start and punch the Power Testament with all of your might.”

“Okay.”

Souta stood in front of the huge object. He clenched his fist tightly before he slowly pulled it back. Veins popped out of his arm as he focus his strength on his fist.

In the next moment, he threw his fist forward. The moment his fist landed on the oval shape object a loud sound exploded.

His fist was too fast to follow. People at B-rank couldn’t see a thing, they just heard a loud sound.

Boom!

Even though he was in his base form he was still pretty confident with his strength yet it didn’t leave any scratch on the object. As expected of Typhon’s scale.

Souta exhaled as he fixed his posture. He glanced at Manduk and asked, “Is this enough?”

“Mm…” Manduk turned his head and looked at the object. On the back of the object, numbers were written along with a leaf.

“You’ve reached fourteen leaves. Just to say one leaf is equivalent to ten thousand tons so your punch just now has the power of one hundred forty thousand tons.” Manduk said.

Souta narrowed his eyes as he glanced at the power testament. His score was lower than his expectations but when he remember that he was back on Imperium he just sighed. The power he had in the sub-world was suppressed in this world.

He could obliterate an entire country in any sub-world yet in this place he was just a small city scale.

Manduk saw Souta’s look and he laughed, “Don’t be that hard on yourself. I’ll tell you this. Your physical strength is already cut above and don’t forget that you’re a monster. Your physical strength will spike if you use the release form and energy.”

Souta shook his head. “I know. I just thought that it would be higher.”

“Hehe, it’s already on the level of initial stage S-rank. I guess that you’re close to the fourth evolution as no monster would have that strength unless they were on the limit of the third stage.” Manduk laughed as he pushed the Power Testament.

“Mmm…” Souta didn’t say anything. He was only at the high stage of the third stage, not the peak stage. So he could still improve his power.

“Okay, next is the test of speed,” Manduk said. “Also, the condition of this test is still the same as power. You can’t use your energy to improve your speed.”

“I understand.” Souta glanced around and saw five people forming around him and Manduk.

These people were sensory type, they would notice it even if he used a little bit of his energy. Unlike mana, best feram was noticeable because of its nature.
