“You okay buddy?” Miles patted Zall’s broad shoulders. He looked tired but healthy. His regeneration speed was better than anything Miles had seen.

“Don’t worry about me, what about your arm?” Zall asked while straightening up.

“It is getting better already.” Miles smiled and passed the trident to Xavic.

“Why are you giving it to me?” Xavic asked with surprise.

“It doesn’t suit my fighting style but suits yours. It has a water element, and if mixed with yours it will increase its strength.” Miles explained. Xavic grabbed the trident in his hand and felt its power.

“Let’s see the orb, and if it's defensive we will give it to Zall, if it's not I will take it,” Miles said, and the duo nodded. He already had a guess but he still wanted to make sure it was an attack-type of orb.

There were five claws swimming in the blue sky. Although Miles could guess the item, he still charged it. As he expected, he failed. He had almost no energy after everything happened. So, he sat down and waited for an hour before he could successfully charge the orb. It melted and covered his right hand. A glove with five one-foot claws at the tip of it formed.

“I will take this one,” Miles said with a smile. His Five Fingers Punch Death technique mostly relied on claws. He could use them with this glove. Miles swung his hand a few times to test the glove. Like all orb weapons, it had no weight so it was pretty comfortable to use. “How about a technique…”

Miles tried to move energy according to Five Finger Claw Death, but all of a sudden his knees gave way. “Huh?” Miles looked at the claw in surprise. ‘It sucked all my energy, and I felt that wasn’t half of the required amount.”

Miles was fighting for such a long time and used a high-tier bow a few times. Although he waited for an hour, the energy he gathered was already on the verge of depleting after he charged the pinnacle-tier glove, but he didn’t think his energy would be insufficient to charge an attack.

‘This orb is pinnacle-tier, a tier higher than the bow, but the energy required to use attack is at least ten times of the bow.’

Miles dispelled the glove and bow and sat on the ground near Zall. He took the bag and opened it. Fruit fragrance filled his nose, and he felt his energy replenishing faster than normal. “These fruits are good:”

“How about we all take two?” Miles offered. They all risked their lives, and it was a fair thing to do.

“Let me and Zall take one each, and you can have the rest,” Xavic said with a shake of his head.

“Why?” Miles asked with a dumbfounded expression.

“These types of things only work once anyway. And your pet played a big role, so it deserves a fruit too.” Zall answered.

“Where did you get another pet though? I thought you only had Makwa.” Xavic asked.

“She is Culga,” Miles said with a smile. Culga was done with eating, and when she heard her name, she turned to look at Miles. She approached slowly and licked his face. Miles patted her face with a smile.

“I met her more than a year ago. I was going to bring her with me, but when I went to pick her up, she wasn’t there. She probably advanced to Frenzy-Rank and couldn’t stay at G-Circle.” Miles explained.

Xavic and Zall looked at Culga with wonder. Its fur was abyss black, but there were white markings all over her body. When the monster spoke, it was in a monster language, so Zall and Xavic couldn’t understand it, but Miles understood just fine. The humanoid monster said two opposite elements couldn’t exist in one body separately, but here she was. Culga was carrying both of them.

It wasn't a mixture of two opposite elements like liquid fire or frozen fire, this was the dark and light elements living together in one body without destroying each other.

“Can you create an ultimate?” Miles asked as he looked at the Culga. Monsters were different from humans. Their interaction with energy started at birth. Mokwa, a newborn, had the base of an ultimate already. He would form one in no time.

Culga shook her head in response. Miles could feel her answer so he realized because of her clashing elements, forming an ultimate would take a while.

“It is fine.” Miles smiled and petted her nose. “Let’s go.” He said and they started to walk. They could ride Culga, but he didn’t want others to ride her. She was a proud girl, and Miles respected it.

When they reached the stronghold, Miles was quite hesitant. He couldn’t always come to this stronghold, so he didn’t want to leave Culga there. But Xavic and Zall were there, and they could take care of each other.

“Culga, where do you normally stay?” Miles asked, and received her answer. She found an underground city not far away with the dark element. She was staying there for the last few months. “Do you want to return?” Miles asked.

Culga nodded her head. He didn’t want to limit the movements of his pet, and he couldn’t take her to the academy. The dimensional device was too small for her size. He was lucky to bring Makwa with him because he was just a baby and they passed through the portal. But Culga wouldn't be able to go to Earth, not without a portal.

Miles pulled out fruit from the bag and threw it to Culga. She grabbed it in the air and started to walk away majestically. The trio looked behind her and all had different thoughts. Both Zall and Xavic were awestruck while Miles was thinking. Culga was from B-Circle or beyond. Maybe it was because of that she could comprehend the element was countering hers.

'Gotta figure out later. If I see Jelly's mother, I can ask her. Now that I can speak the monster language, I can speak with humanoids.'
