The next morning, Rio wakes to find himself being carried across the living room by Rachel.

He is surprised to find a fresh bowl of dog food sitting on the ground.

"I'm not eating that."

He barks out defiantly.

"hmm? Why not? My dad even got the good stuff."

"I don't care how good the stuff is. I refuse to reduce myself to eating dog food." Rio states.

Rachel sighs as she takes Rio out of her arms and places him down on the ground.

"Fine, but if you're not going to eat the dog food, what will you eat? You're not thinking of starving yourself are you?"

Rio shakes his head no.

"Don't worry, I can get my own food." He states smugly.

"Fine, whatever. I don't know why you need to be so picky anyways." Rachel states as she walks away.

Rio follows her with his eyes as she takes a seat on the couch and starts to flick through a magazine.

It didn't take long for Rio to realize that Rachel was reading a manga.

The cover had the words "Becoming the strongest spatula in a new world." plastered on the front.

Rio gave her a disappointed look as she happily scanned the pages.

She looks up momentarily to see Rio's judgemental stares.

"What? Do you have a problem?" She asks him.

"Oh no, there's no problem at all. I was just curious as to what you find interesting in that book of yours.

I've seen similar ones before, but the contents usually aren't quite so childish." Rio answers.

Rachel looks down in shame at the book in her hands.

"D-Don't judge me with those eyes of yours. It's a good book. And besides, You should try it first before saying its bad." she states defensively.

"Oh, really? Then I guess my mind will change once I take a peek inside, right?" Rio says with a smirk.

He jumps onto the couch and waddles over to where she is sitting.

Rachel quickly stands up and closes the book.

"W-Wait! I've got to go get ready! How about you read it another time?!" Rachel screams out as she runs away.

Rio sighs as he hears her door slam shut.

"Well, I guess she's pretty embarrassed." He whispers to himself.

Hearing his stomach growling, Rio decides to take this time to go for a quick walk.

Rio heads towards the back of the house and making sure no one is watching, he has Zack open the door for him before sending him back to the void.

Rio steps outside and sees that it is a beautiful day outside. The sun is out and the air is warm.

The sky is blue and the grass is green.

It was a perfect day for hunting.

Rio carefully and quickly makes his way down a few blocks.

Looking at all of the "Restaurants" in the area he chooses the first one that piques his interest.

Rio waddles up to the door and has Zack open it from the inside.

Rio enters inside and quickly has Zack lock the door behind him as they both make their way through the "Restaurant."

They search each room to find that the only inhabitants were a couple that looked to be in their mid 30's.

They were both still asleep which would make the next process much simpler.

Zack brings a sharp knife from the kitchen and with two quick motions, He slices both of the inhabitants necks and uses his strength to keep them from struggling.

Rio's mouth starts to water as he stares at the corpses presented before him and can't help but take a bite.

Before he knew it, he had consumed both of them whole leaving nothing behind. This was the first time he had eaten a human but he felt nothing about the act.

It was as if his body was a black hole, ready to consume anything it could.

He felt satisfied but he was never full.

"New mission from Alberoth: Consume 100 humans."

Rio smiled as the words appeared in his mind.

This mission was going to be very simple.

"I've still got some time, I might as well get started now" Rio smirks.

Returning back to Rachel's house, he finds her eating breakfast with her family.

"It took you a while, Where were you?" She whispers towards him unaware that her voice was still loud enough for her family to hear.

"I just had to go out to get something good to eat. '' He casually responds while sitting beside her.

Peering into his mind he takes a look at his mission and gives a satisfied smile.

[Consumed humans - 37/100]

  • Disapointment

    Hiro focuses his mana and summons a barrier around himself while Rio rains down fire on the crowd of Larissa clones. Rio's orbs tear through the clones like paper. Each one falling to the ground after receiving a direct hit from Rio's barrage. The sound of impact echoes across the area as dozens more clones fall to the ground dead or dying. Seeing the destruction that the wolf was able to cause in such a small amount of time, Larissa gasps in amazement. "This is what it means to have real power. I'll definitely make you mine." Larissa whispers softly. Her eyes glow brightly with excitement as she approaches Rio. "Come on now, come to mama." She charges forward at him, avoiding the fire coming from above Rio. As she gets closer, He readies himself. Stabbing her dagger towards RIo, Hiro swiftly moves in to block the strike with his sword and slashes downward towards her. Larissa dodges the slash effortlessly but her eyes widen in shock when Hiro grabs her arm with his free hand.

  • First Bout

    Turning her attention back to Hiro, Larissa places a finger to her chin thoughtfully. "I think I'll take my sweet time getting rid of you first. Then I can take my time with your companion," With that Larissa teleports behind Hiro and wraps her arms around his neck. Hiro struggles against her grasp but finds it difficult as he can feel his power fading as she takes hold on him. Hiro continues to struggle against her, until Fye sends Larissa crashing to the floor. Hiro quickly distances himself from Larissa to catch his breath and as he does so Larissa steps out from the crater left from her landing. "I'm going to ask that you don't interrupt me when I'm working, young lady. I will get to you when it is your turn. In the meantime, How about you play with these guys." Larissa snaps her fingers causing the ground to shake. From within the earth rise several zombies which crawl out from the soil. Each zombie stands tall and menacing with rotting flesh covering their bodies. "Now t

  • The First General

    6 months fly by as Hiro continues his training under Gaius. With every passing day, Hiro becomes more comfortable with using his magic. Rio was worried when their training had begun taking longer than he had hoped but, his worries faded when he looked at how much time he had left. Despite being in the trial for 6 months It seemed to have only been around 6 days outside. And with all this time Rio was able to reap the benefits of Gaius's training as Hiro was becoming more and more powerful. Hiro was now at a state where even Gaius was beginning to have trouble handling him, and Gaius knew that Zack would be ready to head out into the world. Gaining permission from the king, Gaius gave Hiro a set of armor and weapons. Hiro wore the outfit proudly as he headed out to the castle's entrance. There he met Zack who was waiting for him. Once they arrived, Hiro was given a map with a destination marked on it. Zack told him that this was a place known as the city of the dead. According to

  • Power

    Gaius walks out into the field and tosses his spear at Hiro. He fumbles with the weapon for a bit until it finally slips from his grasp and bangs against the ground. "Don't break it now. I only have one of those" Gaius chuckles as he watches Hiro pick the spear up from the ground. As soon as Hiro picks up the spear, Gaius plants his feet and stares down the boy. "Come on now, don't make me wait too long. Just come and give me your best shot. Hiro swallows nervously and clenches his fists tightly as he stares at Gaius. He had spent the previous night practicing how to use his power defensively but had failed to learn how to use it offensively. Knowing that his best choice would be to just try his best, Hiro runs at him with the spear in hand. He wields the weapon clumsily as he rushes at Gaius. Before he can make contact, however, Gaius blocks Hiro's path by raising his arms to block the attack. Gaius grips him by the neck and throws his body back to where he started. "I know y

  • Defender

    The next morning, Rio and Hiro hurry to the training grounds as per Zack's request. Hiro's eyes were red and swollen from lack of sleep. His hair looked messy as if he hadn't washed it recently either. Despite these signs, his face remained full of determination as he faced off against his mentor. Gaius was already waiting for them when they arrived. He stood tall and proud with his spear held by his side. "By the look of you, I'm guessing that you didn't get much sleep." Gaius states bluntly as he looks over Hiro. Hiro shakes his head in response. "I might not have gotten much sleep, But you will see the impact of all of my efforts soon." Hiro explains confidently. Gaius narrows his eyes slightly before responding. "Cockiness is not an attractive trait, But I will allow you a bit of pride if what you say is true. Now then, How about you prove to me how strong you are today?" Gaius says as he steps forward with his spear raised high above his head. Without hesitation, Hiro readi

  • Tantrum

    "Again!...Again!...AGAIN!!!" Gaius shouts as he continuously slams his spear and fist into Hiro. Hiro groans as he pushes himself up to his feet yet again. Not giving up, Hiro takes the beating while attempting to draw on the power from before. But no matter how many times he tries it, Hiro remains unable to protect himself. Gaius smacks Hiro upside the head with his free hand, sending him flying through the air and crashing into a training dummy. Hiro hits the wooden structure with such force that it cracks beneath his weight before collapsing entirely. "Damnit!" Gaius curses as he runs over to Hiro and picks him up off the floor. "Maybe we should take a quick break. If we continue at this pace, you won't live long enough to even see real combat." Gaius sighs while dusting Hiro off. "We'll come back tomorrow when your wounds have healed. Until then, I want you to keep practicing on manifesting your power." Hiro nods in agreement with his exhausted body. As Gaius walks away from
