"Using the blood essence it stored to boost itself." Ravenna was amazed to think Raum would have such a great, inborn technique that could put many in shame. "It is much stronger than we expected."

Benimaru shrugged his shoulders. "It is nothing. No low-level and weak being would do anything to survive and thrive in a world ruled by the strong. So, it isn't out of expectation for it to develop such a technique."

Benimaru wasn't saying it to look cool or knowledgeable; he had experienced such a harsh world to become a top notch assassin that was later feared by many. 

Ravenna nodded her head, agreeing with him. Then both of them watched the fight before them fervently.

"KRAA" Raum screamed out loud again at the sky, then looked down at Ragnar. 

Ragnar didn't lose his composure; he braced himself with intense focus, readying himself for this battle to show his power and determination to Benimaru.

Ragnar captured every single bit of its potential as a weapon in his memory. 'These newly grown, sharp nails will surely give trouble. This new skinny body feels like he would be much faster than before. Lastly, its senses, now that its body is basically empty, or, to say, hungry, its senses are heightened up automatically to find its prey.' 

At that moment, the Raum vanished in front of Ragnar's eyes, making him shocked. He converged his senses just to have it around him, so he could capture the Raum's arrival immediately.

And Ragnar succeeded.

He saw an upward swipe coming right below him. He retreated back, dodging the attack in a nick of time. But he got surprised when a follow-up attack came at him, using its left hand this time.

Ragnar didn't have any choice but to retreat once again. 

Like this, a game of tag occurred in the open space of the forest before delving into the midst of trees.

The Raum attacked with all of its strength and speed but wasn't able to catch Ragnar. No matter how much it tried, it failed to do so; moreover, it felt Ragnar was dodging its attack more easily.

And it wasn't wrong, as Ragnar was truly managing to dodge the attacks far more easily than before. It wasn't that Ragnar was getting stronger; he was actually adapting.

Ragnar has managed to capture the Raum's attack pattern, making it simple for him to evade as he could probably predict how it would attack.

However, the Raum wasn't to guess this as its intellectual level was very low; instead, it got very mad and started attacking Ragnar wildly.

'Idiot.' Ragnar's eyes shone as he saw the golden opportunity. He used the movement skill for the first time to come near the Raum.

[ Blurry Dash ]. The moment he used that, he arrived before the Raum by surprise, using its madness as camouflage.

Bam!

Ragnar punched the Raum's stomach, making it bend like a shrimp. Ragnar quickly grabbed both of its arms and then pulled it closer to him.

Bam!

He gave a knee to its chest area this time, making it cough out slightly dark blood. 

Ragnar wasn't done with that; he grabbed the Raum's head, pulling it down this time.

Bam!

Another knee came, this time to the face, which broke its nose and teeth.

Bang!

Ragnar smashed its head to the ground, burying it deep into the ground. He quickly shifted his focus to its arms and legs. Without further waiting, he broke them apart, maiming it to the ground.

Ragnar knew it wouldn't be able to heal itself now as it had consumed too much of its energy.

Clap! Clap!

Suddenly, Ragnar's eyes widened as he raised his head up, but he immediately relaxed after finding it was Benimaru and Ravenna.

Ravenna said to Ragnar, seeing him act like that. "You don't have to tense up. Nobody will ambush you in the Lord's presence."

"Yes, just relax now. You did a great job." Benimaru gave his heartfelt appreciation, as he was amazed by Ragnar's combat skills.

If someone told him that Ragnar had zero practice in combat, if he hadn't met Ragnar till now and witnessed his skill just now, he wouldn't believe that person's words.

The reason for this is that Ragnar had all the basics down and knew what to do in a fight when it was his first fight. 

Benimaru was sure if Ragnar had at least three days of training from him, he would have taken down this Raum in a matter of seconds, not dragging it for too long.

Ragnar put his hands on his chest and gave a short bow to Benimaru. "I am truly glad that the Lord liked it."

Benimaru nodded his head and then ordered. "Pull it out of the ground, I will make it tamer now."

Ragnar quickly got Raum's head out without delaying the order given by Benimaru.

A bloodied face with jagged jaws was presented before Benimaru's eyes. Benimaru expressionlessly pulled out a red seal with weird patterns on it. He slapped that on the Raum's head in surprise, and it melted inside its head.

"What is that, Benimaru?" Ravenna asked curiously, as she had never seen anything like this.

"This is called the Seal of Loyalty. It will make the person who you inserted loyal, or you can just say become a slave of yours." Benimaru casually explained, shrugging his shoulders.

This was an item he bought from the shop. It was a 2-Star item that would make anyone loyal. One just had to smear it with just a sprinkle of his blood and put it on the head of the person you want to make loyal when they are weak.

A few seconds later, he felt a connection with Raum—not an equal bond but that of a ruler and his soldiers.

But he couldn't confirm if Raum truly was loyal to him, as it was very wounded now, not even able to open its eyes. He had to say, Ragnar beat this guy very badly.

He looked at Ragnar and said. "Let's carry this guy to the base." Then he shifted to Ravenna. "And you go hunt a small beast, I don't want a dead weight to burden me. I need workers very fast."

Ravenna and Ragnar nodded their heads, quickly carrying out Benimaru's orders. Ravenna left to hunt while Ragnar lifted the Raum, resting it on his shoulder.

Benimaru and Ragnar walked toward the house. On the way, Benimaru thought to himself. 'I need to gather more Common Mana Crystals or I might run out of these seals.'

He couldn't help but get a headache because this thing was very expensive for the current him. One Seal of Loyalty costs twenty thousand Common Mana Crystal which is totally absurd. 

You have to know that Benimaru only got five hundred thousand Common Mana Crystal from the Crystal Mine. Also, he couldn't waste all of that on just these, he had bought many items that he felt were useful, especially on skills, spells, and techniques, which were expensive in themselves.

'I guess I could ask this Raum after it wakes and see if it has it in its territory. Also, I need more small workers to mine these things, or we have to go down the mines ourselves. I can't let myself and the generals waste their time on mining. We have to use that to hone our skills, spells and cultivate properly.' Thinking to this point, Benimaru couldn't help but put a frown on his eyebrows. He rubbed his forehead. 'Ahhh… so troublesome to run and manage an organization on your own.'

Benimaru and Ragnar arrived at the house and saw the Meatscrapers still sitting on the ground, in a pure daze. 

Benimaru decided to undo the spell as they were here now, but from the corner of his eyes, he saw something that surprised him. 

A Meatscraper was sitting on the ground and eating what could have been a dead deer. 

This not only surprised him but Ragnar too. He knew Benimaru had put them under an illusion, but he didn't expect one to break out of it.

The Meatscraper, who was eating its deer meat, happily heard some footsteps, making it jump up and be on alert. But it quickly relaxed its guard, seeing that it was Benimaru and Ragnar.

This made Benimaru curve up the corner of his lips in a big grin. 'Interesting, it didn't try to escape and feel comfort near us. I think it should know it would just die or get captured if it leaves my area of influence. The Meatscrapers should be smart…'

Benimaru glanced at Ragnar. '...They were told to be at the top of the Demon Realm, where basic and normal demons reside, but here we are with two Meatscraper with high-level intelligence. Is it something only seen in Meatscrapers or is there some kind of secret or phenomenon I don't know of? Only time will tell.'

"Lord, what do you want to do with it?" Ragnar asked curiously, as he wasn't good at making such decisions as whether he should dispose of it, let it stay, or do other things.

Benimaru just answered him with a smile. "Invest."
