10- Residence Of Beasts + Unexpected Event...
-
Adel was awakened the next morning by a few knocks on the door.
He was astonished when he opened the door and stared at Katrina, who seemed to seem better in his eyes for some reason...
Her perfect face had him staring at her for a long time, as if he was in a trance...
Her dazzling cyan eyes, along with her purple hair braided in a ponytail manner, made her even more stunning...
She was dressed in a captivating crimson robe that highlighted her wonderfully presented plump jade white breasts that were heaving up and down...
While the robe was exposing, it did not expose her skin. It just stroked her curves, making them even more beautiful in his eyes...
Although Adel admired how she appeared and even expressed astonishment on his face at her appearance, he couldn't get over his harem from his previous life, hence he couldn't feel any lust or similar feelings over other women who weren't in his harem due to his commitment to them...
-
Meanwhile, Katrina was enjoying Adel's gaze, but she was a little disappointed that he didn't appear to have any sentiments of desire for her body, which made her wonder if she wasn't attractive enough.
She then nodded in contentment as she looked down on her assets, which appeared to be about to erupt from her robes to embrace the outside world.
A significant flush was visible on her cheeks, unbeknownst to her...
"Everything inside the clan can only be obtained via clan points," she explained, tilting her head. "You may obtain clan points by executing tasks for the clan, supporting other disciples, or by carrying out transactions with others.
This method may appear to be similar to sects that focus solely on cultivation, but it has a somewhat distinct system.
The uniqueness is a jade token that is provided to all disciples in order to identify them by inputting their energy fluctuations.
Each person's jade token may only be utilized by that person.
If they somehow lose it, even if others come across it, they won't be able to steal the clan points because of the unique energy fluctuations.
Gold and other rare precious ores can be converted to clan points.
However, there is a cap on how much you may exchange. After all, wouldn't it be pointless if others just bought them from the mortal world and exchanged them?
Anyway, that's enough of that. Let us proceed to the Beasts' Region." Katrina finished with a triumphant look on her face as she displayed her jade token, which carried around 20,000 clan points.
She then proceeded in the same pleased tone as before: "It also immediately has your clan points displayed on the jade token.
It may seem to be pointless. But sects rely on a system similar to the mortal world's bank system to receive their sect points every time they want them, which is why they have to travel to a bank every time they want a few points that belong to them..."
They were discussing when they came to a door guarded by two guards.
The guards exchanged glances and nods before one of them yelled, "Halt!"
Adel and Katrina came to a halt while strolling and conversing, and Katrina nodded to Adel, motioning for him to stop, before they both shifted their gazes to the guard.
"Here," the guard said with a nod of his head, a s he handed Katrina a board.
The list on the board was as follows:
-
[ 1st Step Beasts ]: [ 24 hours ] [ 100 clan points. ]
[ 2nd Step Beasts ]: [ 10 hours ] [ 200 clan points. ]
[ 3rd Step Beasts ]: [ 1 hour ] [ 100 clan points. ]
Though the list only showed the first part of First Step Beasts, Katrina put a portion of energy from the jade token into the board, which caused all of the parts to appear.
When the guards saw that, they glanced at each other and nodded, thinking inwardly that they would be more nice to either of them in their future patrolling duties.
Adel's face was puzzled, prompting Katrina to stroke his shoulder with the other hand that wasn't holding the token before saying: "Your disciple rank is also represented by the jade.
You don't expect outer disciples to be able to fight or have access to third-step beasts, do you?
This jade token also reflects my status as a clan heir.
Only the quantity of energy flow varies from rank to rank, not the colors of the jade tokens.
The mechanism is created by a particular array from a 3-star formation master." She then paused, staring at the two terrified guards, who thought she was an arrogant heir who would put an end to them simply because she was furious with how they acted.
To begin with, all members of the Klein clan were conceited. Their reputation was abysmal in the outside world.
Her following remarks, however, were unexpected from her, leaving everyone surprised and lowered their heads once she finished speaking.
"As for these two guards, they change every now and then, so not everyone would know me unless they worked here since years ago...
Because, of course, I didn't come here till years ago..." Katrina then nonchalantly pressed the first button — [100 clan points]. — that was near to the symbol — [24 hours] — three times before handing it to the guard who delivered it to her and continued on their march...
-
"The next time, don't speak carelessly to people. Were it not for that heir's kindness, or because someone was close to her, being demoted would be our best ending..." The first guard looked at the second guard and stated solemnly...
The second guard agreed with the first guard's statements, nodding his head as they all returned to the door...

Katrina and Adel were on their way to the Residence Of Beasts at the same moment.
Adel and Katrina arrived a few minutes later outside of a massive building with three tunnels, each with phrases carved on the top indicating which forest the tunnel reached.
They then discovered a large screen in the middle of the three tunnels that displayed some disciples battling one other.
Katrina gave him a brief look before saying, "There's also an annual tournament in this Residence Of Beasts where disciples range from outer to seed disciples.
The disciples participate in order to get gifts that greatly aided their cultivations; of course, only the top three receive such rewards, while the remaining top ten receive only little benefits in their own cultivation system.
In terms of that board over there..." Katrina turned around and pointed to a large board with numbers before saying, "It's the ranks of which disciples are taking place.
The tournament lasts a month, with each disciple rank getting a week in the insides to accumulate as many points as possible.
We'll speak about how they acquired their scores later because we won't be participating any time soon..."
Adel agreed with her, then searched for the First Step Beasts' tunnel before advancing...
-
Adel and Katrina were taken aback as they entered the tunnel and saw how many people were there...
There were much more individuals in comparison to those on the outside.
Even within the Residence, the atmosphere was rising as people fled to the outdoors or the interior...
After taking a look, Adel and Katrina proceeded past the crowd, ignoring the people in the tunnel and heading straight to the interior...
They quickly discovered why there was such a large gathering in the tunnel...
Every few seconds, a circle ahead in the tunnel would glow with startling glints of light as people appeared one by one on top of it.
Almost everyone who emerged from the large circle had pale expressions on their faces, and their bodies were covered with bruises.
Adel saw that the majority of individuals here were in the early and mid stages of various cultivation systems, with only a few reaching the high stage...
"Adel, are you sure you want to enter?" Katrina questioned, turning his head to gaze at Adel.
"It seems that today is a special event. After all, we may come back another day. As you can see, even high stage first step disciples were not spared... There might be numerous High stage first step beasts lurking nearby..."
Adel shook his head earnestly, suddenly feeling warm in his heart at how much she cared about him, even to the point of ignoring the spent clan points and going another day...
As Adel reached out to place her hand on top of her shoulder to speak to her seriously, a disciple who appeared to be fleeing pulled Adel against Katrina, who slammed Adel against a wall...
Adel didn't take her shoulders, instead clutching her breasts with one hand to keep her from collapsing...
''Mhmm~"
Katrina moaned softly as she felt his palm on top of her breasts, and the next thing she knew, a noticeable heavy blush appeared on her cheeks...
Adel frowned as he looked across at the disciple who had shoved him and was still going...
But as he caught Adel's stare, he spun around and gave him a thumbs up before continuing his run...
Adel was stunned at first, then shook his head when he heard Katrina's remarks, which rendered him even more speechless.
"Haven't you had your fill?" But then her cheeks became blazing red as she realized her words...
Adel sighed, shook his head, and then withdrawn his hands before sincerely assuring her: "I'm sorry for touching you, Katrina.
I've heard from a fellow clan servant that if a guy touches a female's intimate region, he must accept responsibility and claim her as his...
I'm not sure if this is a private area, but based on your reaction, I'm almost certain it is..." Adel paused as he realized what he had just said, that it wasn't really him speaking, but a much younger version of him...
His face was changing all the time. From one filled with shock, love, possessiveness, and eventually fear, recalling a moment from back on Earth....
-
On a dark street in a city of a country on Earth, where it seemed that drugs were being dealt between mortals...
A young man was observed on top of a young woman, both on the floor – and they appeared to be the same age...
The young guy was in an awkward situation, clutching both the young woman's breasts with his hands, despite the fact that both were still dressed...
The young guy shook his head as he felt delicate skin twin blooms under his fingers, with quivering nipples, before sighed and rose from the young lady...
"I'm truly sorry, Gabrielle. I didn't mean to do that... I simply wanted to protect you because... you know... the gunshots were heard from there, and I was afraid I'd lose you if I didn't hold you in my embrace... " the young man said, slightly emotional, before looking at the young woman's expression, which was as red as a tomato, before continuing: "Since I've already physically touched you, albeit not in a litteral sense, but that doesn't mean you've never been touched.. I'll take responsibility for th-."
Before the young guy could continue, Gabrielle, the woman, jumped up and pressed her finger on his lips, saying: "Don't worry about it, Adel. This isn't much..."
"Though I wouldn't mind becoming yours... I don't want to force things between us... and furthermore, even if you were to do 'it' with me, I wouldn't reject..." she murmured in a low, quavering voice that Adel, albeit barely, could hear due to his exceptional physical heightened prowess from martial arts training.
She paused as she realized what she had said, before her face turned even redder...
.
Back to the real world.
After Adel finished speaking, Katrina spoke the exact same things Gabrielle said back then on Earth, which terrified Adel because he had no idea what was going on...
-
In the meantime, back in Adel's soul...
The figure was still sleeping in his soul, oblivious to all that was going on in the outside world...
