Aiden still stood there glancing at the beast and the warriors battling it when his system's interface appeared in front of him while hearing the system's voice,

____

<Host can check out the status of the magical beast to see how strong it is and what rank of beast it is>

____

Aiden didn't know he could do something like this with the system, the system hadn't told him anything about it. His thinking was that he could only check the status of humans not knowing he could also check the status of magical beasts.

And something else, the system also said something about the rank of the beast, so the beasts were in different ranks? This was something Aiden wasn't aware of as well, no one told him, even the harem god didn't give him details about it, he only told him that magical beasts exist in this world.

He thought all the beasts were the same and had the same power levels, but he was wrong all this while. He knew he needed to converse with the system right now, but he wouldn't do so orally, he wouldn't do so with his mouth.

There were people around, and once they see him talking without seeing who he was talking to, they'll take him as a crazy person.

..He'll speak with the system from the mind.

'Really? I can check out the beast's status?'.

<Yes, host. Just say so, and it would be displayed in front of you right now>

'You said something about checking out the rank of the beast. So, does that mean the beasts in this world have different ranks?'.

<Yes, host. They don't have the same power levels, some are stronger than the other. And some possess more affinities>

Aiden nodded his head at that moment. His dad had told them stories about battling different magical beasts on their way to paying tributes to the Chuvulan and Mepaidian Kingdom. But Aiden had never gotten to understand that rank aspect.

Ethan might have said it, but Aiden never got to understand it well...he just took it like his dad was battling the same rank of beasts, they all had the same power levels.

Since the system had informed him about this, definitely, he wants to check out the beast's status to see what its stats points would be like and what rank of beast it was. So he uttered to the system from the mind once again,

'I want to see the beast's status'.

<That would be displayed in front of you right now>

An interface appeared in front of Aiden, and these are what he saw there,

_______

<Status>

<Name: Magical beast>

<Age: 300 years>

<HP: 10/10>

<Affinities: Fire, Wind>

<Rank: 3>

<Strength: 280>

<Agility: 130>

<Physical DMG: 220>

<Endurance: 350>

<Speed: 130>

<Mana: 10/10>

________

Done glancing at the beast's status and the interface disappeared from his front, the first thing that ran through his mind was,

'Gosh! Look at the beast's stats points, everything is on a high level'.

Then the next thoughts that followed were, 'It's a rank 3 beast and it possesses two affinities, wind and fire. But I haven't seen it use any of the affinities'.

And the moment he thought that, after a man jumped and slashed the beast in the neck, the beast brought out fire from its mouth which almost touched the man...but it didn't 'cause the man didn't let it, he was too fast.

'Oh! And it's just made use of one of its affinities. They've been slashing it a lot, but it isn't going down, its endurance is really high...it's evident in its endurance stats point. Its moves and attacks are really fast too, its got speed, all its stats points are high,

What else should someone be expecting from a rank 3 beast? They'll have a hard time bringing it down'. Aiden thought to himself as he stood there glancing at the beast and the warriors battling it.

Meanwhile, this was what was taking place between the warriors and the beast, they were truly having a hard time bringing it down. The beast focused its gaze on one of the warriors and brought out fire from its mouth once again as it headed toward the man.

The man was D-rank bender, so before the fire got to him, he used his wind power to move backward with speed. Another warrior jumped reaching the beast's neck and giving it another deep slash there.

..And something happened at that moment.

Before the man could even get to the ground, the beast glanced at him and swung its hand hitting the man. The beast's hands were huge, so the man received pretty rough damage with that hit.

The moment the hand touched him, he flew and landed on the ground with speed. Since they began battling the beast, this was the first time it was hitting someone. It had been swinging its hands with speed and making use of its affinities, but it hadn't been able to hurt one of them.

Instead, they had been the ones slashing the beast and making use of their powers on it, but they hadn't been able to bring it down. Some of them had used flame to blast its body, some had made use of their earth power element using stones to hit its body...

..But all these were just futile.

The man landed on the ground and groaned a little, he felt pain, and other warriors quickly ran toward him and helped him stand up from the ground.

'Wow! Why is this beast so hard to bring down? It's got really high endurance. Were the other beasts I've battled have high endurance like this?'. Ethan thought to himself.

He had also been slashing the beast and making use of his powers on it, but the beast wasn't going down. By now, he had already discerned that this wasn't a low-ranked beast, this must be either a rank 3 or rank 4 beast, and he had discerned that it was most likely a rank 3 beast 'cause of the affinities its made use of.

The man was standing on his feet right now, and somehow, he still had strength to keep battling the beast, he didn't receive too much damage. A man's voice resounded at that moment,

"We can't let this beast kill any of us, it's killed enough already...innocent citizens of the Tuvalon Kingdom. We have to find a way to bring it down".

Seeing that none of the warriors were attacking anymore and they were standing some meters away from it, the beast began heading toward them.

"And it's heading toward us". One of the warriors voiced out.

"Arghhhhhhhh". Ethan shouted and moved toward the beast with speed.

He reached the beast's legs and gave it a deep cut in its right leg. Then wielding mana and making use of his wind power element, he was able to move high with speed as wind lifted him.

Then at that moment, he transferred a lot of mana to both of his hands as lots of wind began circulating them. Then forwarding his right hand, a strong wind hit the beast's face that it had to move back a little.

He landed on the ground, and now, it was about time to make use of his sword. Wielding mana once again and making use of his wind power element, he was able to fly high again heading toward the beast's neck...they had been slashing the beast's neck a lot.

He reached its neck and hung on it, then he stabbed his sword right straight into its neck. Then he began moving it, he thrust his sword into its neck, now, he wanted to cut half of its neck and head off its body...but that wouldn't be easy.

The beast's hand began moving toward him. The plan was to grab him, and chew his neck and head off his body, exactly as Ethan was doing to it...but it was gonna do its own in another way.

But Ethan wouldn't let that happen, he had already noticed the beast's hand heading toward him. He had already cut some part of the beast's neck, so he just drew out his sword, and quickly jumped off its neck before the hand could even get to him.

Ethan hadn't even landed on the ground when the beast made use of its wind affinity. As Ethan was moving back to land on the ground, he felt strong wind push him, and the pace at which he was moving to the ground increased.

But even with that, he still landed on the ground smoothly though he had to roll on it a little. After the wind pushed him, he controlled himself and his body movement, if not...he would have landed on the ground with a thud.

At that moment, the beast just stood glancing at them with blood dripping out of its neck...that place Ethan cut it.
