Chapter 753 Monster Overlord Classification
“According to Duke Quinn’s latest report, Dumrod is still fighting with the group of monster overlords until now.” said King Leon.
“Most investigators couldn’t come close to the battlefield as shockwaves and stray attacks will pass through occasionally. However, they could roughly estimate the fight will be going on for a long time.” added King Leon.
“It seems the transcended state is powerful if Dumrod could hold on for this long against all those monster overlords.” said Angus.
“Not necessary. There is a possibility that these monster overlords are fighting with each other. The monster overlords that somehow get called are very diverse. However, each of them is very powerful.”
“If a normal monster overlord needs at least two seventh grade to fight it safely, these monster overlords need at least three or more seventh grade to fight it safely.” said King Leon.
“I see… It is really dangerous.” said Angus solemnly.
Because of the monster overlord’s potent miasma, it has become common knowledge to have two seventh grade combatants fight a single monster overlord. Yet, there are some monster overlords whose power couldn’t be measured, like Avalon, Kraken, Sin Crow, and many others.
This kind of monster overlord is the true monster overlord. Many people refer to them as grade 7 monsters. Below this kind of monster overlord are powerful monster overlords like Krugguar Emperor, King Ogre, Overdevil, and many others.
These kinds of monster overlords often refer to pseudo-grade 7 monsters. This monster overlord is above the average monster overlord. Still, it is less powerful than the Avalon, Kraken, and their class.
In general, they are often regarded as monster overlords. Same as the seventh-grade level, the knowledge about monster overlord is limited to the public. Only those people with a certain influence or power will know about this knowledge.
In fact, the classification of the monster overlord is very ambiguous. All these monster overlords have different traits, unique capabilities, and power. They couldn’t be measured with the same standard.
Moreover, the actual classification of grades comes from the world itself. For example, when an individual breaks their limit and reaches seventh grade, the world will announce their breakthrough in some invisible wave phenomenon.
The same happens when a monster reaches sixth grade and becomes a monster overlord level. However, no other world phenomenon has ever been recorded after a monster becomes a monster overlord.
Many people speculate that monster overlord is already the limit for monsters. Yet, some monster overlords are too strong for ordinary monster overlords. These monster overlords soon refer to the seventh-grade monster, even if the world does not announce them.
“I think you know that no one else should know about that girl’s capability. Did you already ask her about this matter?” said King Leon.
“Yes. She just said she asked for reinforcement. As for how she knows to call the reinforcement, it is given by the darkness or ‘Blackie’ like always.” replied Angus truthfully.
“Darkness… Did you think it is the voice of the world?” asked King Leon.
“Who knows… According to her, this ‘Blackie’ is the source of all information. It is everywhere, like a real shadow. It could know everything we did, even the ones we don’t realize.”
“I speculate those monster-minded people know many things, even Silvia’s history through this Darkness. However, I believe ‘Blackie’ also has its own will or at least some sort of restriction that regulates them.”
“It could refuse to pass down any critically important information. According to her, she will hear many voices and noises in her head if she asks for dangerous information. Even in her transformed form, it can still not resist this restriction.” said Angus.
“Information about anything?! Certainly, information could become a power in the right hand. No wonder the record said monster-minded people could easily destroy any nation. I will not be surprised if those monster people know about our current conversation.” said King Leon.
“Yes. This is also why I only informed you about this matter privately. If Father or others hear about it, they may become paranoid and insane from all of this revelation.” said Angus.
“Certainly. Other than seventh grade, I think only people with huge confidence or indomitable will are unaffected by this information. Though if they are as freaky as you, they may also not be affected.” said King Leon.
“Hey… I am still 100% real human.” said Angus with an annoyed look.
“No eighteen-year-old human could fight on par with seventh grade.” retorted King Leon.
“That’s… Didn’t I tell you before I am very talented at executing skill.” said Angus.
“Bullshit!! Although skill mastery and proficiency are important and could enhance your power by many times, there is still a real gap between third-grade combatants and seventh-grade combatants.” said King Leon.
“Did you think if there were thousands of third grade, they could fight on par with seventh grade?” asked King Leon rhetorically.
“Gezz… Alright, Alright, I just have a unique body and mind. Besides, most of my power comes from Ancient Power. So, It is like just stacking on with the others. I will still get tired first if I fight against any seventh-grade.” said Angus.
Hearing this, King Leon could twitch his mouth. Although what Angus said is true, he didn’t specify how long he could hold on against the seventh-grade people.
Based on his observation and estimation, Angus should have no problem fighting for a few hours against an average seventh grade. It is enough time for him to escape easily with all his current running methods.
“Enough about this. Since you are here, take a look at these reports. These are some of my plans for next year. What did you think about it?” asked King Leon.
“Seriously?! Didn’t I say I don’t want to be involved with those political stuff?” grumbled Angus.
Seeing King Leon’s stoic face, Angus decides to read the paper before him just to satisfy him. He knows that by reading this plan, he may already involved with it or it may lead him to trouble. Yet, he is also not stupid to ignore the kingdom’s problem.
“Hmm… Building roads… Increase cities and rural region budgets.. Adjusting taxes… strengthening the military…” muttered Angus.
Angus mumbles the list without giving any comment until he reaches an event among the list of to-do.
“A joint knight competition?” asked Angus.
“Hahaha… I also thought about it. How about Jayna? Isn’t it a good opportunity for her to learn some battle experience?” asked King Leon.
“Yes. This joint event will be held to show off our military strength to other kingdoms. Basically, any combatant could participate in the event. It is also to recruit talented people. Why did you want to enter the competition?” asked King Leon.
“Are you serious? This is just another chicken fight. Hell no. Even if worthy opponents are in the competition, it will be only one or two. It is better to use the time to train on your own or fight against our own elite knights.” said Angus casually.
“Hahaha… I also thought about it. How about Jayna? Isn’t it a good opportunity for her to learn some battle experience?” asked King Leon.
“Nope. Jayna will not enter this stupid chicken fight.” said Angus.
“Hmm… Have you already asked her opinion?” asked King Leon.
“Nah… She is currently focusing on training her fire. However, this kind of fighting level is just wasting her talent and time. As I said before, if there is a worthy opponent in this competition, there will be only one or two.” said Angus. 𝚘𝑽𝑙xt.𝚌𝒐𝓂
“Besides, what Jayna currently needs is time to grow and master her current skill rather than another battle experience. She already has plenty of experience from the Phoenix’s memories, though most are incomplete.”
“Based on her last fights, she will not have a problem fighting against people with fifth-grade combatants on her own.” said Angus confidently.
“Hmm…. Say Angus, did you want to have your own squad?” asked King Leon with a smile.
“Nope. Too much trouble. Besides, building a single squad will take a lot of resources. Is there no other thing? I will go first.” said Angus as he disappeared before King Leon could answer.
Angus fears that if he stays any longer, King Leon will suddenly increase his noble rank or even give him territory to manage. This is not the first time King Leon gives a wide enticing smile to Angus. It is as if King Leon finds the right heir for the next king.
It is general knowledge that King Leon is already sitting on the throne for a long time. Therefore, he no longer needs to consolidate his power and authority but search for the proper heir for the next king. So far, he only found that Angus was the right candidate.
As for the crown prince or other princes, he could only feel disappointed in them. King Leon even considered sending the princes to exile so they could see how the real world works. Yet, he didn’t have the heart to do it, as losing his two brilliant daughters was traumatic for him.
In fact, King Leon feels he needs to change the law so even the princess can take the throne. Still, it is difficult with the World Contract binding the Heart Kingdom’s leader and royalty.
