System's POV

Chapter 257 I’ll Follow You For Life [Part 2]

”Everyone, this is my disciple, Taiga,” Thirteen introduced the Tigerkin to everyone.

”Hello, just call me Taiga,” Percival said, no longer caring about what name Thirteen planned to call him. ”Or any name that you wish to call me by.”

After knowing that the beautiful teenage girl was his Masterʼs sister, Percival did his best to be in his best behavior because he knew that if he did something out of line, Thirteen would make sure that he suffered for it.

”Shasha,” Shasha also introduced herself, but didnʼt elaborate any further.

She was already used to people looking at her with the same heated gaze that the Tigerkin was giving her.

In fact, this was the reason why the other teenage boys in Shashaʼs team had chosen to stay with her, instead of joining Kaneʼs team.

”Shasha, kill those wolves that Taiga left alive,” Thirteen ordered.

”Yes, Brother,” Shasha replied and did as she was told.

There were seven wolves that Percival had knocked unconscious, so Shasha simply stabbed them with the sword in her possession.

After killing them all, she received two items, and one of them was a Wolf Avatar. The other was a dagger with the insignia of a wolf on its handle.

It was a dagger that would return to its owner once it was thrown, making it a very useful throwing weapon.

”Weʼre going back to sleep, so make sure that those wolves bleed out, so we can cook them tomorrow, Taiga.”

”Yes, Master!” Percival pounded his chest as if to assure him that everything would be done according to his orders.

Thirteen then held Shashaʼs hand and pulled her back to the cave, so that they could go back to sleep.

—————————

Several hours later…

When Thirteen opened his eyes, he found his sister still sleeping beside him.

The other Wanderers were already awake, and busy grilling some of the bearʼs meat that they would turn into jerky later on.

Miriam, on the other hand, was busy cooking meat stew, using the vegetables that Zion had given her.

She knew how to cook, and was very good at it because she helped a lot in the orphanage where she grew up.

Since Thirteen had given them a lot of ingredients like salt, and other spices, she was finally able to put her skills to the test.

Thirteen even gave her pots, pans, ladles, and other cooking utensils, making her the official cook of their team.

The younger boy gently pried Shashaʼs hands off his body, so that she wouldnʼt wake up.

Today was going to be a busy day because he would need to help the Wanderers stock up on their food supplies.

He had already asked Vassago and Poca to scout the surroundings to see if there were any dangerous monsters that they needed to keep an eye on.

The two Pocopocos were already used to this kind of thing, so they scouted the Island overnight.

Percival was not in the cave when Thirteen woke up. But, he had an idea where the Tigerkin went.

He had assigned Taiga to keep watch over their ship, and only follow him after they had properly anchored it.

The ten Trolls and the two Ogres, who had become part of Thirteenʼs private army, were also on the ship, and had already learned how to operate it properly.

Rocky, Blacky, and Hercules, were on the ship, and were tasked to guard it.

During the past three years, everyone that had followed Thirteen had become battle-hardened monsters.

The two Ogres and the leader of the Trolls, T1, had become Rank 4 Sovereigns.

The rest of the Trolls had become Rank 4 Alpha Monsters, showing how much they had grown over the past three years.

Giga, Blacky, and Hercules had now become Rank 5 Sovereigns. Making them very powerful monsters.

Rocky, on the other hand, was now a bonafide Rank 6 Sovereign, and he was also the strongest monster in Thirteenʼs army.

Their explosive growth was attributed to eating the Rank 9 Fire Dragonʼs meat and blood, which Rocky had stored inside his body, allowing Thirteenʼs group to monopolize it.

The Dragon Scales, horns, claws, teeths, and other important body parts were also stored properly because he intended to bring them back to Pangea.

Thirteen already had a plan in mind for how he would be using the Dragon Scales.

He would not be giving them to his father to turn it into armor or artifacts, because he had a better use for it.

The only thing that he planned to give his father were the Dragonʼs teeth, claws, horns, and other parts that he deemed that he wouldnʼt need for his personal use.
