Nytri arrives on a tree looking into the cave, the others appear beside her but Kael looks beat up. The cave is a bit distance away from them and inside is the Tiger King. Nytri's eyes glows as she stares at it, "APPRAISAL" she thought. A purple screen appears before Nytri.

Nytri blinks her eyes looking at the stats of the Tiger King which is actually an Emperor, she rubs her eyes taking a better look and leans forward. Nytri opens her eyes wide, "SO WEAK!" in her eyes. This tiger is on par with a Demon Lord/Champion/Hero. "Awww such a cute kitty, and it's a little cold." Nytri descends from the tree with the others but Kael is left hanging there.

Nytri lands a few distance and walks towards the cave, the rest remain in the air so not to startle the big cat. Nytri walks but there's no sound, she uses Raw Energy which is no different from the environment. Even if the Tiger Emperor was sensitive to energy, it still wouldn't be able to tell Nytri apart from the environment.

Nytri walks into the cave and observes the tiger sleeping, its breath was blowing a gust of wind out of the cave. The gust blows at her face and she chuckles, "Your breath stinks." The Tiger opens its eyes and Nytri speaks, "What did you have for lunch?"

The tiger lifts its head to look at Nytri, it's about to growl and Kael appears behind it like nothing happened. The tiger immediately sensed a bigger cat right behind it and froze. Kael grins and whispers telepathic to the Tiger, "Go back to sleep kitty." These words sounded like thunder to the Tiger.

Nytri tilts her head at this odd behavior, "It must think it's dreaming." She thought. She climbs on its head and sits down looking down at its yes, "Still closed huh." She thought. Nytri looks outside, "Alright guys, you can come. It seems to be sleeping."

Kael appears from the darkness behind Nytri startling her, "When did you get here?!"

Kael smirks, "A feline his ways around." He leans on the wall and the others enter.

Kaida lowers herself looking at the cat, "This is the Tiger King? It's so weak."

"It's actually a Tiger Emperor," Nytri speaks giggling, "It has a lower version of the MEGAMORPH skill, GIGANTIFICATION. Though it can grow up to only 100 meters at most. It's almost close to a complete skill."

Eryndor rubs his chin, "In a way, that is impressive. It could probably put up a fight against me."

Lilia looks at the tiger and Eryndor, "Are you saying, you'll lose against this?" She points at the tiger.

Eryndor shakes his head, "No, my SLEEP ARROW can knock it out in an instant. But it would be hard to hit it if it's able to use all it's Agility."

Kael shrugs, "That's that. Anyway, you guys should create a battle scene here or it'll be suspicious." Kaida and Eryndor respond together, "Alright!" and they leave the cave. Lilia stays behind.

Eryndor starts firing arrows in a patter as if the 'tiger' they're to fight is running around. Kaida also smashes the ground causing parts to cave and dislodging some trees. Eryndor also uses various elemental runes and attacks around the place. Kaida jumps high and drops herself down leaving the shape of a person on the ground, she carves claw marks over it. They mess up the place making it look like the battle of the month just took place. Meanwhile, Nytri, Lilia and Kael are with the tiger.

Kael observes the tiger Nytri is sitting on and enjoy it's trembling not aware it's afraid of Kael. "So, what should we do with it?" Kael speaks wiping his cheek like a cat.

Lilia grins, "We could make a tiger rug out of it?" Her gaze wanders off to Kael for a moment.

The tiger opens its eyes wide and its thoughts, "WHAT THE-" Nytri shakes her head, "No, a rug would be useless. Besides, I can't return the corpse without its skin."

Kael snorts, "An animal rug is disgusting. You don't know where it's been." Kael looks away.

The tiger cries in its heart and its thoughts, "Yes, tell her! I don't *sobs* want *sobs* to be *sobs* a rug*sobs*" Nytri looks down at the trembling tiger in thought, "Why is it still shaking?"

Kaida speaks from outside the cave, "Let's just chop it up and eat it!" she throws a huge tree into the lake.

"How could you!" Cries the tiger in its heart.

Kael shakes his head, "That won't be a good taste."

"You said it great one!" The tiger's thoughts, "I don't *Sobs* want *Sobs* to be *Sobs* food!" He feels water dropping on his back, "Huh? Huh, Huh?!!!" He imagines Nytri drooling at him. His back feels cold and he dare not look up…

Nytri is making drops of water from her finger tips and dropping it on the tiger to see if it stops shaking. When Nytri use to bath Kael before he became Azurian, he'd shake his butt in a mocking manner at Nytri and run away. She expected at least a similar reaction from this tiger or at least look up to see the source but nothing.

Eryndor appears before the cave pointing at the tiger's parts, "It has sharp claws and tough skin, we could make some armor and weapons from it. If we sell it, we'd make a fortune." He jumps back and fires arrows around.

The tiger cries in its heart, "WAHH! WAHH! MOMMY HELP!!! I'M GOING TO BECOME ARMOR!!" like a baby.

Kael looks at the tiger and feels pity for it, he was a cat so he feels a need to look out for this one. He rubs his chin in thought then he finally speaks, "How about taming it?" he looks at Nytri and Lilia who's holding carving knives for some reason and Eryndor is setting a table outside, Kaida is picking herbs.

Nytri tilts her head in thought, "Won't it become like Kael? I don't want to have to deal with finding his litter again." She makes an exasperated face.

Kael notices and has a wry smile, "I mean making him a pet. I'm certain he can be trained and this one will definitely listen to instructions, right?" He bends down and looks into the tiger's eye, "Right?"

The tiger nods its head fervently and it's thought, "Yes! Yes, yes, yes! I'll obey! I'll do anything! Humans like cooking, right? I can cook too! I'll learn to cook." Nytri notices the tiger moving its head and sighs in relief, she thought it's broken.

Kael is taken aback. He recalls the last time he tried cooking....

…(FLASHBACK)…A few months back in the realm of monsters. There's a small cat making a camp fire, it starts cooking by putting eerie looking stuff in a pot. There's a big fish corpse mysteriously on the side. The cat finishes cooking and takes a taste from the pot, the moment a its tongue touched the ladle *BOOOOOOM!* The cat is blow high into the sky *AAAHHHH!!!* it lands on its feet with its eyes rolled back…(FLASHBACK ENDS)…..

 

[AU: INFO

- Calamities use Raw Energy which is no different from the environment. Normally the energy in one's body is weaker and diluted but Calamities are the opposites. The energy in Calamities are the same as the environment so their presence alone can cause the environment to mutate to suite their physique.

- That's why Nytri was growing scales in the realm of monsters. Being too close to Calamities was causing her to change to be like them and this goes for the Azurians. She has no such effect on humans because she was originally human.

- Pseudo skill/Incomplete skill: A skill in its raw state mostly weak no matter the level and has limited uses. Example: Wind blade: Only makes blades of winds. A level 1 Wind blade makes a wind blade but a level 10 wind blade just makes a bigger wind blade.

- Ranked skill/Complete skill: Complete form of a skill often allowing its uses and shapes to be changed by will. Wind Blade here after being complete would-be Wind Manipulation, when it reaches higher rank, its name might change but it gains more versatility. With Wind Manipulation, you can create a tornado and wind blades. It's even possible to suppress a Level 10 Wind blade.

- Ranked Skills are below:

Ranks of skills

Ordinary skill (LEVEL: 1-3): average skills for anyone.

Greater skill (LEVEL: 4): advanced form of a skill with greater power.

Evolved skill (LEVEL: 5): the highest form of a skill with more control and ability to control other lower ranked forms.

Unique skill (LEVEL: 6): only one person has it which has bizarre effects, considered the peak of mortals.

Master skill (LEVEL: 7): capability to mold the skill according to one's will with little to no restrictions.

Ultimate skill (LEVEL: 8): considered the peak of divinity skills.

Law skill (LEVEL: 9): allows the comprehension of a law and are extremely dangerous.

Absolute skills (LEVEL: 10): capable of affecting the universe. Basically a skill you can't block unless you have a defensive version of Absolute skill.

Example: INFORMATION MAGIC, with this absolute skill, it can make one dominate even gods with ease and even stand up to Rulers/Calamities but not Primacs. Information can improve battle prowess and even change the body to produce the required power to fight. Having this skill at Level: 10, an Absolute skill can affect not only your mind but your body and even people around you.

Soul skills (LEVEL: EXCLUSIVE): capable of making impossible possible and possible impossible. These are skills that take SoP to use. These skills aren't given a number level because it's close to impossible to determine the limit of such skills.

Example: Death Emissary's Decree: This skill sounds unimpressive and pretty useless against mortals. But for gods, it's a death sentence. This skill puts the mark of the Emissary of Death on a god, the Emissary can come to reap it depending on the intensity of the mark. So it's an instant kill skill against any god.

Though it can be used against Calamities/Rulers/Primacs, they can easily detect the mark and clean it. Some Rulers even had a skill that 'Rebukes' death on a target. If used on a person, they will never die no matter what happens to them unless their souls are directly destroyed.
