The word revenge caused the boy to turn toward Tang Shaoyang, his eyes enlarged, and red, and veins popped from the side of his eyes. The hatred was plain to see from the boy's expression. He grabbed Tang Shaoyang's wrist, holding it tightly, "Train me! Train me to be strong enough to kill them all! I will do everything for you, Sir!"

Those were the words of someone who had given up on life a few seconds ago. The desire to avenge the villager gave him the will to continue his life.

"You don't need to do anything, and you should know that all you need is not training, but experience and resources." Tang Shaoyang fed the potion.

In a world governed by System with everything decided by number and rank, training was not the most important part to be stronger. Experience in fighting, and killing monsters and also the expert would help the boy to be stronger. Then the boy needed a high-rank bloodline and also equipment to fight, that was the deciding factor.

Areth greedily drank the potion, emptying the vial in a few seconds. The sound of the flesh regenerating could be heard, an indication the potion was working. A new ear slowly took form as his broken bone slowly fixed.

Tang Shaoyang stood up and started to gather the dead bodies. These dead bodies were precious to him, and he collected them into his inventory. They were precious materials for the next summoning, Primordial Rank, and also Myth Rank. Not something he could get in his hand easily.

"Wrong and not wrong," Karoen came next to Tang Shaoyang, commenting about his remark earlier, "We still need training just like you need to train your Slayer Energy, Master. It's useless to have a powerful weapon but you will not be able to utilize it properly."

Tang Shaoyang glanced at Karoen, "Does your previous master also have Slayer Energy?"

"Yes. But his control over the Slayer Energy is about in similar level as you until he met someone with the same Slayer Energy and got killed by the same Slayer Energy." Karoen nodded and told Tang Shaoyang a little bit of his experience, "My previous master managed to reach God Rank and perished not long after his ascension to the God Realm."

"I see, does that mean you can't teach me how to train my control over the Slayer Energy, right?" The reply was a nod, "As I said, what I need is to build up experience and use it more often. If your previous Master has Slayer Energy, you should be aware that there's a bunch of God Ranks hunting me because I possess the power they fear."

Karoen nodded again because his previous master died by the God Rank mercenary who was tasked to kill his previous Master. His previous master also had been fighting those God Ranks.

"Then I am on the right track if that's the case. I just need to use and experiment with Slayer Energy more often," Tang Shaoyang nodded to himself.

He was not that worried because his control over Slayer Energy was on the same level as a God Rank. His control over Slayer Energy improved a lot more than the first time he received the class. At first, he could only use the skill that came with the Slayer Class. Over time, he could use Slayer Energy just like Mana, even though his control over Mana was far superior to Slayer Energy.The source of this content is novelenglish.net . ꜰire

In the end, experience in fighting with Slayer Energy was what he needed, not some kind of special training. There was no better place than this tower to do so. The God Rank hardly interfered in this tower because the System would not allow its area to be breached for the third time after the Mistovel Family's attempt.

Resources and experience, that was the thing Areth needed to be strong. Resources for a better class and equipment. Experience to hone his instinct and battle experience, so he would not be killed in a fight in a silly way just like the previous Primordial Rank and Myth Rank that were caught off guard by Tang Shaoyang's ambush. It was nowhere near a perfect ambush because the thirty-three people who were killed by Slayer Blade had their chance to keep their life, but they were stunned for a while and failed to notice the incoming Slayer Blade. The fact that three Myth Ranks survived in the initial ambush was a clear sign that experience was a bigger factor in the fight for life and death.

"The other side is also over, we will continue our conversation later. We have a lot to talk about." Tang Shaoyang received the report from Skelly1, the commander of the skeleton army, and they were on their way toward him.

Karoen might not be able to help him in his control over Slayer Energy, but there were a lot of things he could learn from Karoen's experience.

Rosalie, Zowen, and the Skelly Family led the skeleton army back to the village, a ruined village. The Virandal Empire's army did not care if the villager was below level ten. They used their power arbitrarily, destroying most parts of the village.

Rosalie and Zowen seemed to have fun with the smile on their faces, but those smiles disappeared after looking at the ruined village. Both had a little attachment to the village with how they reacted.

Kaiser and Keeper came next to him while Skelly1 and the others knelt toward him. The clacking noises rang in the air.

[We have annihilated your enemy, Master!] Skelly1 reported.

Tang Shaoyang nodded and asked, "What about the casualties?"

Clack! Clack! Clack! [We managed to minimize the casualties because of the ambush and also with the help of Mistresses. We lost twenty-six skeletons, but we killed six hundred soldiers.]

The result of this battle would tell Tang Shaoyang if the skeleton army project was worth his time or not. The answer was obvious, it was worth it for two hundred and ten skeletons to wipe out the army that tripled their numbers. However, Skelly1 kept the surprise for last.

Clack! Clack! Clack! [However, thanks to Skelly7, he managed to revive the destroyed skeletons with sacrifices from the dead. In the end, we managed to keep our number and keep our strength intact.]

The skeleton army project was worth more than he thought from the result of the battle. Especially with Skelly7 on his side. The Archmaster Bonemancer was the key to this army, his ability to revive the skeletons would turn the army into an immortal army.

"Where's Skelly7?" Tang Shaoyang did not see Skelly7, in the line of the army. Skelly7 was usually obvious because the skeleton was accompanied by giant skeletons, but he did not see the group around.

"Skelly7 is preparing a surprise for you, Master. Please don't use your Spirit Eyes to find him. That will ruin his joy to give you a surprise," The Draconic-Ruby Abyssal Skeleton replied to his inquiry. He was more caring to his siblings to remind him like that. The Ruby Dragon bloodline seemed not just to enhance his intelligence, but also his emotional intelligence. He cared for his sibling's feelings more than before.

Tang Shaoyang did not mind a surprise, so he was waiting as Rosalie and Zowen came over. "Did anyone from the village survive?" Zowen asked in a hurried tone.

He pointed to the back with his thumb and replied, "He is the only one who survived."

Zowen and Rosalie looked over his shoulder and saw Areth, sitting on the ground, holding his knees, weeping quietly. The Lightning Magus came over, trying to comfort the sorrowful soul.

Tang Shaoyang let the teenager mourn before discussing the boy's future while waiting for his surprise. However, it seemed it would take time for his surprise to arrive as five minutes passed, yet he did not see Skelly7.

By this time, Areth had calmed down, starting to regain his composure. Tang Shaoyang came over and opened his mouth, "Are you ready for your first step to avenge the village?"

Zowen immediately shot a hateful glare toward Tang Shaoyang. She could not believe he brought up such a topic the moment Areth calmed down. It was so heartless for Tang Shaoyang to bring this up when Areth had not overcome his grief for losing the villagers. In her eyes, Tang Shaoyang tried to use the boy's feelings for his personal gain, which made her furious.

Zowen stood up and was about to scold Tang Shaoyang, but he shot a glance at her, "This is a matter between me and him. If you know nothing, please refrain from speaking anything unnecessary."

Areth took a deep breath, closing his eyes for a few seconds before releasing his breath and opening his eyes at the same time, "Can I have more time before that, Sir? I want to give my family a proper burial. I want them to have a place to rest."

Tang Shaoyang nodded, "Alright. I will have my skeleton army to help you."

Areth gathered the villagers' bodies, lining them up with the skeletons' help. He did not even miss the part that separated from the body and gathered them. After that, he started to dig the ground with the help of the skeleton. It took less than ten minutes to dig a proper burial ground for all the villagers. He buried them all and brought a giant boulder from the field as the gravestone.

Areth knelt before the grave, placing his forehead on the ground. Then the boy made an oath that he would avenge them all in front of the grave. The deep hatred could be felt from his tone and each of his words in the oath.
