This intriguing adventure was fraught with relentless danger. One misstep and the three of them might never return alive.Adrian gazed into the distance. Although they had entered the deeper parts of the secret realm, it felt like they hadn’t fully delved in yet. Pushing further seemed increasingly difficult, and his expression turned cold as he looked ahead."I wonder how much longer until we find the Prism Stone and the Enlightenment Tree," he wandered.The Violet Rain Bird responded with equal seriousness, "We need to proceed cautiously, using hidden methods to suppress our presence and avoid unnecessary trouble. The deeper we go, the more advanced Divine beasts we’ll encounter. If we provoke them, it could lead to a terrible battle, and that would be the end of us."Adrian was surprised by the suggestion, but he nodded. "Alright, we’ll do it your way. Moving further in will be risky. We must stay cautious." He understood that rushing forward recklessly could trigger a crisis to
The fiery beast looked more terrifying than ever as its fireball scorched everything around it, heading straight for Adrian and the others.Adrian's expression hardened. "Whatever it is, it dies if it comes for us," he said.The Violet Rain Bird was briefly stunned by Adrian's determination. Knowing his immense strength, the bird realized that Adrian was ready to unleash his full power."Be careful, Master. This creature seems to be at the early Divine Stage," warned the Violet Rain Bird. "It’s not only strong but also a pure-blooded ancient beast."Adrian's eyes narrowed. "If it comes after us, it's ready to die."Without another word, Adrian unleashed his power. But before he could intercept the fireball, the cry of a beast erupted from within the flames."What is that?" Adrian asked as a small figure emerged from the fiery sphere.“That...That's a Fire Unicorn!” gasped the Violet Rain Bird.“A Fire Unicorn? Isn’t that an ancient divine beast?” Adrian was shocked as the flame
Adrian's eyes lit up with interest, and Tyron, along with the Violet Rain Bird, knew trouble was coming. The Fire Unicorn had caught Adrian's attention, and when something like that happened, things rarely ended well. From their experience, whatever Adrian focused on faced one of two fates—submission or death. There were no exceptions.The Fire Unicorn had provoked them first. Had it just retreated quietly, things might not have escalated.Adrian’s voice was cold as he spoke, "Sorry, little one. You have only one choice now: submit or die. Make your decision."His words sent a chill through the air. The Fire Unicorn roared in fury, eyes locked on Adrian as if it wanted to tear him apart."Trying to intimidate me, are you? Impressive. A Divine Stage unicorn is no small feat. If you can break out of the cage I’m about to set, you’re free to go," Adrian said calmly.With a wave of his hand, Adrian summoned a cage around the Fire Unicorn. The creature thrashed violently, determined to
The formation trembled again, but nothing happened.Adrian smiled at the sight. "Not bad. Keep going, don’t stop."Though small, the Fire Unicorn wasn’t foolish. It sensed the mocking tone in Adrian’s words, but surrender was not an option. It thrashed wildly, fighting with all its might to break free.Adrian’s face showed a flicker of surprise. The unicorn was consumed by rage, and that was exactly what he had been waiting for.To him, the best way to subdue a mythical beast was to overwhelm it with strength when it was most vulnerable. The Fire Unicorn, still in its infancy, was at the perfect stage for taming. Despite its size, its potential was enormous, and Adrian knew this might be his only chance to gain control of such a formidable creature.The Fire Unicorn continued its desperate struggle, but the formation's oppressive power held firm. No matter how fiercely it fought, it couldn’t break free. It glared at Adrian, anger burning in its eyes, frustrated at being trapped so
"Oh! Do you want this flame I possess?" Adrian asked with a smile. "If you're willing to submit to me, I can teach you how to wield it."The Fire Unicorn's large eyes flickered with uncertainty, and its fiery body trembled slightly. It seemed to consider Adrian's offer. Submission sounded simple enough, but the creature didn’t realize there was more to it than just surrendering.Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird were momentarily stunned. They sensed that Adrian was baiting the Fire Unicorn with promises that seemed too good to be true. It was as though he was dangling an irresistible offer, and the two onlookers couldn’t help but be surprised. Why was the Fire Unicorn so captivated by Adrian’s flame? They couldn’t quite understand.Adrian, still composed, continued, "It’s time to decide. Refuse, and I’ll have no choice but to roast you with this flame. By then, it’ll be too late for regrets."The Fire Unicorn’s pupils flashed with fear as it listened. Realizing it had no other option,
After all, it would be a significant loss if Adrian failed to tame the Fire Unicorn. Gaining control over it would make him even more formidable.Time passed slowly, and the creature became fully enveloped in Adrian's power. The latter’s gaze turned colder as he felt his grip on the Fire Unicorn steadily tightened.As Adrian’s control increased, the Fire Unicorn began to sense that something was wrong. The surge of power startled it, but by the time it realized what was happening, it was too late. Struggling and roaring, the creature fought back, but its efforts were futile.Adrian smiled faintly. "Do you still want this flame? If not, it’ll soon be too late to claim it."His words stirred the Fire Unicorn’s hesitant heart, and it finally surrendered, allowing Adrian to seize full control. In moments, the creature was completely subdued, leaving everyone awestruck.Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird stood by, their curiosity and astonishment evident. They hadn’t expected Adrian to cap
Seeing the Fire Unicorn's curious expression, Adrian smiled. The creature was undeniably innocent. To Adrian, the small flame was insignificant, but to the Fire Unicorn, it seemed to mean everything.With a soft smile, Adrian said, "Little one, stick with me, and you'll be able to play with flames all you want."Excited, the Fire Unicorn jumped onto Adrian's shoulder. The latter chuckled and said, "Not bad. Let's keep moving. And you, make sure to hide your presence."To Adrian’s surprise, the Fire Unicorn seemed to understand. In an instant, it concealed its aura completely, leaving Adrian impressed."I didn’t expect you to have this kind of ability. Impressive. If only you could talk, that would be perfect," Adrian remarked.The Fire Unicorn chirped and chattered as if trying to speak but couldn’t manage it. In its juvenile stage, it hadn’t developed that ability yet.Through their connection, Adrian sensed that, despite its small appearance, the creature was over a hundred yea
"Don't worry, there's no one else around. Go ahead and transform. We won’t laugh at you, even if you end up looking silly," Adrian said.His teasing seemed to provoke the Fire Unicorn, causing its eyes to widen in frustration. Roaring defiantly, it floated in mid-air, clearly offended by the suggestion that it might look ugly. In an instant, its small form vanished from Adrian's shoulder, and a massive figure took its place.Adrian's eyes widened in surprise at the transformation. The once small Fire Unicorn had morphed into an enormous, imposing beast resembling a legendary gluttonous creature.The Violet Rain Bird stared in disbelief. "How...How is this possible? Could it be a hybrid? Is that why its two forms are so different? But that doesn’t make sense either!"As soon as the Violet Rain Bird voiced this theory, the Fire Unicorn glared at it with giant eyes, clearly displeased.Meanwhile, Adrian fell silent. He hadn’t expected this at all. While the Violet Rain Bird’s theory
