Chapter 553 - 553: Hunting – Part 1 [Not Yet Edited]
After his children were born, Theo didn't leave, he was a doting father, all the time around and adored his children.
Yuki laughed and smiled helplessly, but she liked that feeling, only she knew Theo also had important business to attend to, so she chose to stay inside the [Dimensional Room]. At least that way time wouldn't pass so quickly outside.
In a few days, they have already grown to 3-year-old-looking children. The girl inherited Theo's golden hair and the boy Yuki's white hair. The two were very cute and adorable playing with Theo.
" Dad, do that again!" Little Teodoro asked with his pair of glowing eyes. After being nursed for a few days, he incredibly reached Layer 3 of the Spiritual Realm. So does Little Yumi.
Theo turned into a giant golden fox and let his son climb onto his shore and started running really fast around the [Dimensional Room]. Theo's fur was soft and more comfortable than a soft bed, after a while, the two little devils fell asleep.
Yuki picked them up and put them on the bed.
"Theo, are you leaving?" Yuki asked.
"Yes, I'm thinking about hunting the monsters that live around this world. This will help people, and also help me, after all, I need more mana. And the sales of the pills brought in a lot of Monster Cores, but it's still not enough." Theo told her.
"Well, be careful." She kissed his lips as she said goodbye.
Theo came out of the [Dimensional Room] and saw Shina.
"Yo!" He waved at her.
"Going out?" Shina guessed.
"Yes." Theo nodded.
"Don't kill those below the Spiritual Realm. These are resources for the people to eat." Shina warned.
"Well, I'm only interested in the Monarch and Venerable level anyway." Theo smiled and said, "I'm going, I should take a maximum of 3 days."
"Okay, you can leave things here with us." Shina gave a reassuring smile.
"Mm, thanks." Theo kissed her and left.
Waru, Apollo, Athena, Judith, and even Railander who were lazy were helping to take care of things. And of course, settling in and getting stronger each day, after all, the mana and resources in this place were more valuable than what they were used to.
'There are many treasures and research done by the Venerable Minister of Magic, then I must devour everything, this can increase my power a little.' Theo was thinking about this as he saw the palace from afar as he flew with a pair of gigantic wings made of lightning.
'As expected, this place is very beautiful, and gravity keeps trying to pull me the pro floor. By the way, I could devour a core of a planet... And if I did that, I could better understand how gravity works? Maybe I'll start looking for uninhabitable planets and test this theory. By the way, if I devour an entire planet, I'll get stronger, after all, it's made of energy, yes? Mmm, another reason to devour a planet...'
Theo's presence was disguised, he didn't want the monsters to flee when he sensed his presence. When he saw a Monarch-level land dragon eating an ox, he smiled strangely and descended like a meteor and grabbed the land dragon's head with a giant hand made of diamond. The earth dragon struggled and used the earth element to attack Theo and his tail.
Theo laughed finding this amusing, but it didn't make the earth dragon suffer for long, he tightened his grip and the earth dragon's skull was crushed.
'I'm in luck, I found one quickly.' Theo returned to flight after saving the corpse of the earth dragon even the ox that was half eaten, it was from the Spiritual Realm, but he was not the one who killed it, and since he is dead, there was no reason to leave it there.
Sort of for a change, this time Theo made a pair of 300cm wings on each side made with Eternal Darkness.
The pair of black wings was very attractive, mainly because it looked even darker than the night sky. It was beautiful to flap and fly, the gigantic wings made it travel miles in seconds.
Theo was looking at the ground like an eagle, of course, he was also searching with his divine sense.
Some monsters with dragon blood were killed on the way, it was quick for him to kill even being from the Monarch Realm.
After traveling for a good long time, he found a huge red snake crawling on the ground. She was swallowing something big because a part of her was so swollen.

[Volcanic Anaconda – 10th Layer of the Venerable Realm]

"Oh, that's what I wanted," Theo muttered happily.
He came down from heaven.
The red anaconda didn't care for Theo at first, but since he was so small and looked weak, it wouldn't even fill the gaps in his tooth, but when Theo attacked, she got angry.
However, where he was hit was crushed, the anaconda begins to move non-stop.
She was furious, baring her sharp teeth in Theo's direction, the part where she was hit had healed and her stomach had deflated a little.
You sure used your food to heal yourself.
Magma came out of the mouth of this anaconda even worse than a flamethrower heading towards Theo.
With that speed, Theo could dodge, but he wanted to test the diamond's defense, and created a diamond shield.
The magma hit and failed to break the diamond's defense and was scattered through the forest as it burned everything in the process, the anaconda became even more angry seeing that their attack didn't work and continued. She didn't believe this shield would last long, after all, she was a great beast in the 10th Layer of the Venerable Realm, not like a simple human, or whatever it was could be.
Getting bored of just defending, Theo took action.
He came out from behind the shield and at a speed that surpassed the snake's instincts and eyes, appeared beside her and threw a punch with brute force.
* Booooooooom!*
The anaconda's head exploded.
But that wasn't the most surprising thing, what surprised Theo was that her level dropped to Tier 9 of the Venerable Realm and a new head appeared.
"...."
Theo walked away. He didn't want to kill for the sake of killing, he wanted the energy he had in the anaconda's body, what if he kept killing and she came back to life sacrificing her cultivate?
He studied the anaconda well trying to find the Monster Core.
If he finds it, it was easy, he just needed to withdraw directly, even if it was well protected, it was better than losing his precious resource.
The anaconda was now desperate, unexpectedly, this golden haired man with 10 tails was very powerful. Though not very intelligent, a rational being, the anaconda knew she couldn't win and was planning how to escape.
However, every time she thought of a route to escape, Anaconda felt that Theo would intercept her escape.
"ZZZzzzzzzzzzz!"
Sticking out her tongue and making a strange sound, the anaconda seemed to tell Theo to leave her alone. However, that would not happen.
Anaconda was even more furious and attacked with her gigantic tail, at the tip there was powerful poison.
Theo defended with his arm.
The snake celebrated.
However, time passed and nothing happened. This was weird, he was already supposed to turn purple and die.
After all, the poison from the tip of its tail is very powerful.
" Heh …" Theo noticed the anaconda's despair and laughed coldly, he finally managed to figure out where the anaconda's Monster Core was.
When she used mana, he saw where the energy came from, it was very close to the end of the tail, the worst that seemed to move, he used the divine eyes and he could already determine moving before he didn't know what it looked like, but now that he knew, there was no way he could lose sight of it.
Theo attacked. At first, the anaconda regretted that it would lose some more of its power, but when she saw that he was heading towards her Monster Core, she despaired and tried to move, but Theo's godly eyes followed.
Theo's hand turned into fox claws, getting even sharper than an LV8 weapon.
When his hand pierced the stomach of the anaconda that hid the Monster's Core there, Theo caught it with his claws and pulled it out.
The anaconda starts to curl up and lose its power.
From a Venerable being, he became a meager corpse, as the Monster Core was no different from the heart of a monster. However, she still lived, even without the strength of a Venerable One, but a simple blow to the head, it burst and killed the anaconda.
Theo was delighted with a palm-sized Monster Core of magma.
Though not as much as before, he still thought the anaconda's body was useful and put it away.
'This monster was very strange, I'm glad I noticed it right away. If not, I'd lose even more mana…' Theo sighed in relief.
This time Divine Wind's wings appeared on his back, these made him fly even faster. In a short time, he passed the clouds. Flying, he kept looking for new prey.
'I only killed 14 Monarch Level and 1 Venerable Level, I need to go faster...' That also reminded him of his beginnings.
Before, he also went hunting like that.
'Good times~'
Theo chuckled to himself and kept flying until he found a huge turtle in the sea, you could only see the gigantic island-sized hull going at an amazing speed.
Theo chased the turtle. He looked and saw that it was another being in the Venerable Rank.
