In front of her, these monsters that stopped her kept falling under my control like pieces of dominoes! In just one hour, we pressed forward and crossed the trail towards the next continent.

But that wasn’t why I had such a wide smile on my face. It was thanks to the calibre of these monsters!

They were mostly evolved ones! If I got to face normal monsters, then crossing this distance alone wouldn’t take even one fifth of the time I spent doing it.

It was all thanks to the high grade monsters I was dealing with. And slowly as I advanced forward, the time needed to control them kept increasing gradually.

One minute and twenty seconds, one minute and half, two minutes… Time kept increasing and in return I started to use my bones.

I had no time to use my sacrifices, and their time was over a few hours ago. But in return, I was using bones to supplement and make up for such an increase in time.

I used the bone energy in forming more threads. Not to mention the ones that got thickened before and evolved were acting like true beasts!

If another thread would take minutes to control a monster, these would take less than one minute to do so! I craved to turn all of my threads into such thick version, but that would need me to repeat the same deadly explosion many times.

So I had to wait for a huge war to erupt and then I’d repeatedly detonate my beloved ores in the faces of my enemies. At the same time, I’d use this chance to evolve my threads permanently.

On the side, Isac grew numb from getting surprised. I got that she was watching me fighting with a trembling heart and body, but she had to get used to this.

She was left back at the capital for so long, making her reaction right now quite normal.

“You… You are worthy of being called a single man army,” after an entire day, and as I cleared a great distance spanning over hundreds of miles, she finally said this.

And in response to what she said, she got only my laughs as an answer.

“You… How did you become so strong?!!” she was still unable to get over this point. And I shrugged in response.

“I got baptised under many brutal fights and wars, so I grew stronger after facing each enemy and defeating him.”

“This…” I wasn’t exaggerating, this was indeed the main reason behind my current progress.

Without all these wars, without the strong foes I faced and conquered, I wouldn’t have reached even half the man I was currently at.

“Sigh! I don’t know how, but it seems your path is quite special,” she shook her head, “I got to see lots of specially talented people, strong enough to be considered blessed by heavens. But you… Compared to you… They are so damn weak and worthless!”

“Hahahaha! That’s such great praise, thanks,” I laughed and she couldn’t help but bitterly smile.

“It’s not that funny. This might be considered normal at mighty races, like these three. But this happened to the human race… Humans never showed such prodigy before! Not even once!”

“Everything must have a start, right?” I shifted my attention again towards the densely packed beasts.

They were acting a little weird. As if they got someone to control and give them orders.

So far, my controlled monsters managed to get away without gaining a single wound. Yet this all changed at this moment.

“What’s going on here?!” and it seemed I wasn’t the only one to notice that, Isac also did.

Of course she had to notice it. After all, the beasts that were trying to dominate the sky and not caring that much about a single chariot and two souls inside changed their attitude.

They started to group up, form massive waves and came towards my chariot.

And I saw part of them getting detached and started to hunt down my retreating controlled beasts.

“There is… A higher evolved beast is born here…” seeing this held one single meaning; there was a great monster here. It must be on the same level of sane races, and that was great news for me.

“Where the heck are you?” Yet after fighting desperately for three days, clearing lots of monsters and trying to secure the retreat of these I controlled by my threads and a thick line of aerial monsters under my control, I didn’t yet manage to spot a glimpse of such a beast.

“Wait! It might be that we are looking in the wrong direction!” and just as I was at loss by day five, Isac suddenly shouted.

“What do you mean? It’s on another continent?”

“No, I mean it’s here but… It’s not an aerial monster,” she suddenly pointed towards the ground, “look! There is a strange gathering of ground monsters around that hill.”

She got a point. The ground was literally covered with densely packed ground monsters. Of course Lily left a group of forces here, but they weren’t as much as the ones at the western continent.

So they controlled only a small stretch of land, and I didn’t focus much on the ground as I didn’t care about these monsters.

However when Isac mentioned it, I noticed that the hill looked quite special. Ground monsters used to run around, not stand around a certain place for long.

Yet from the look of it, the densely packed ground monsters down there seemed to be there for a long time. And they didn’t give me the impression they intended to leave or move away.

“Let’s go,” I grew curious. During the past few days, I managed to cross the entire continent twice at least!

From what I experienced, I got to say the monsters here would never be from this continent alone. I was sure monsters from other continents came here to help others attack me.
