Undying Warlord

361 Little Tiger

"I have no idea if you understand me, but you should fight by my side!" Dilan suddenly remarked, smiling devilishly as he looked down to the semi-conscious sabertooth tiger.

Instead of continuing to use Balzaki to cut through the sabertooth tiger, Dilan used his overwhelming strength, and [Switch] to further increase his strength in order to beat the sabertooth tiger to a pulp.

The sabertooth tiger's flesh wounds could heal easily but it was not possible for the monster to cope that easily with the damage Dilan caused with his bare hands.

"I will fight some Vampires soon, and you will become even stronger if you eat them. You have only one chance. Accept me as your master, or die now!" Dilan spoke coldly and the sabertooth tiger could dreadingly fathom what was going to happen if it were to shake its large head.

However, it didn't seem to like the way Dilan was treating it. Though, that was not something Dilan could be bothered about. He wanted the sabertooth tiger to fight by his side rather than as an opponent because it was a powerful Tier-2 monster with similar abilities.

The Vampires would have many problems facing both Dilan and the sabertooth tiger, which was the entire reason for Dilan not to kill the monster.

He gave the sabertooth tiger some time to think about his proposal. In the meantime, Dilan picked up all the Essence crystals of the 200ish monsters he had killed in the last hour.

[Essences of 161 Tier-1 monsters and 69 Tier-2 monsters have been absorbed→+3.6 Strength, +2.9 Stamina]

[Essence pool has been filled. Host reached Level 18(Tier-1)! +1.0 Status points can be allocated!]

The Essence that he received increased rapidly. If his Health, Agility or Mana stat would have increased after absorbing Essences, the unused stats would turn into more Essence, which Dilan would absorb right away.

This was one of the few advantages he gained from maxing out three of his five stats.

Once his Strength and Stamina would be maxed out as well, leveling up to Level 25 would be even easier.

Dilan liked this thought, which was also why he smiled faintly while looking intently at the sabertooth tiger. The monster flinched at the sight of the smile before it forced itself to stand up. It wasn't used to seeing opponents that stood their ground instead of running away for their lives.

The sabertooth tiger was only around two meters tall but that was almost perfect for Dilan to ride on it. At the same time, the monster was quite fast.

"Did you make your final decision?" Dilan asked in a commanding voice while looking the sabertooth tiger in the eye. It nodded its head and bowed at Dilan in submission.

"Good choice. Now, follow me!" He said in satisfaction before he shot in the opposite direction of the encampment.

Dilan had yet to finish his hunt for the day. He was not tired, and in contrast, was eager to fight more and more.

In the following hours, Dilan and the sabertooth tiger kept hunting, using a few more vials of Victoria's blood.

After Dilan had supplied Victoria with his blood a few times, the noble Vampire had entered a state of blood oversaturation. She had to release some of her blood to digest Dilan's sacred blood.

His blood was more important to Victoria than her own blood. Thus, she ended up giving Dilan more than enough blood to fill a large batch of blood vials.

That was why Dilan didn't even think about saving up some blood vials. He wanted to make use of every last drop until late at night when he returned to the base.

He was eyed weirdly as he rode on the sabertooth tiger, but everyone simply accepted the reality when they realized that it was Dilan they were talking about.

He was doing the weirdest stuff imaginable and it was not even the first time that he was doing such things. Hence, it was better for everyone to simply accept it. Asking what Dilan was doing and how he was doing certain things would cause too many people painful headaches.

Sven, Yvonne, and Kathrine were sitting around a map, trying to come up with the best strategy to surprise attack and overwhelm the Vampires when Dilan showed up.

"They may be higher in number but the Vampire Clans should be located further away from each other. They're the exact opposite of the socializing Werewolves and basically hate each other. Until they think about teaming up with each other, we should have eradicated a few of their families already!" Yvonne replied and was about to add more when she sensed the powerful presence of a monster.

Her hands automatically went to her weapon and she was ready to fight when she saw Dilan riding an unwilling sabertooth tiger.

The head of the sabertooth tiger looked a bit deformed as it was still healing from the wounds Dilan had inflicted, but the monster was still powerful.

"What the hell did you bring here?!" Yvonne asked, but Dilan could only blink his eyes.

"Ehm…a sabertooth tiger?" He answered, smiling lightly.

Yvonne bit her lip and clenched her fist so as to punch him when she saw Kathrine approaching the sabertooth tiger.

The monster growled weakly, which was enough for Kathrine to stop in her advance.

"I didn't tame it. I just used some…words to convince it that following me will help it to become stronger," Dilan said before he explained the sabertooth tiger's innate abilities.

"So, basically you didn't feel like killing it because it could be useful to fight against the Vampires?" Sven asked, while Kathrine quietly added,

"And you used brute force to convince it that following you for a few days will allow it to stay alive…great, we have a wild monster in our group now…"

Kathrine didn't sound pleased with Dilan's reckless decision but he just smiled.

"The sabertooth tiger should be stronger than Victoria," He revealed, which caused everyone to look at him with squinted eyes.

"You brought a monster into our base, which only you can handle? I guess you want to jump straight into the biggest crowd of Vampires while fighting them, or am I mistaking something?" Yvonne asked, subtly hinting at something.

Dilan nodded his head without a change of expression.

"I hope this little tiger can wreak havoc in the rows of the Vampires. It wouldn't even matter if he is incapable of controlling his wild instincts while wreaking havoc. After all, I would be there as well, and I'm maxed out!" Dilan added nonchalantly.

The three were still uncertain what to think of Dilan's plan but they could only nod their heads. The sabertooth tiger seemed to be afraid of Dilan.

This fear would prevent it from doing anything stupid and against Dilan's wishes.

That was helpful enough for Kathrine, Yvonne, and Sven to change their point of view once again.

"In that case, come and sit down. We need to come up with a different plan, now that you brought us a new secret weapon!" Sven said, sighing deeply.

Dilan sat down as told after he ordered the sabertooth tiger to lie down. Hours passed and they finished planning before everyone except Dilan fell into a deep slumber right on the table.

While the others were asleep, Dilan looked through his Log of the Ancient. He anticipated great action fighting the Vampires around the Sanctum.

However, there were also a few problems he would have to take care of.

'My stats won't increase anymore, even if I absorb the Blood Essences of the Vampires. Entering the Blood Monarch's Sanctum might also not be as fruitful for me if I don't advance to Tier-2 first…I should adjust my plan a bit…'
