Jaden looked at a huge cage that was covered in thick ice; a bear-like Ice star beast was sleeping inside it.
"A d-ranked star beast..." he mumbled after using Realm Scan on it.
He looked around and used [Twilight Veil] to conceal himself before making his way towards the cage.
He reached the cage, put his finger on the keyhole of the lock.
A glistening blue liquid slithered out of his finger and entered the keyhole. He twisted his hand, and the lock opened with a soft click.
He commanded the ice elementals to cover him with thin ice.
He stepped inside and closed the lock once again.
He sat in one of the corners and covered himself with heavy ice, making sure that no one could see him.
He took out his camera, positioned it at the bear and clicked the shutter button.
[Capturing a D-ranked Frostbear.]
[Capture Requires - 1 slot]
[Confirm | Deny]
"Confirm," he commanded.
The bear broke into black sparks and entered his body.
[You have captured a D-ranked Frostbear.]
[Experience +40 (Capture)]
'Nice... I'll capture two more D ranks and then we will start running wild,' he thought as he mumbled, "Summon."
His grimoire appeared beside him, and the frostbear appeared once again.
It lifted its head and looked at him before he commanded, "Return to sleep."
A few minutes later, a man's voice reached his ears, "Let's go, boys! We got to deliver this fat bear to some important little young master."
The cage began to move towards the wall.
The guard knight talked with the merchant
and checked the cage before allowing them to pass.
The tall gates creaked open, and the merchant and his group exited with the cage.
Suddenly, the wheeled carrier of the cage halted.
The merchant shouted, "Go check what's wrong."
A muscular man jumped out of the vehicle and moved towards the cage.
As he neared the cage, his eyes fell on heavy ice that covered the left wheel, stopping it from moving. He shifted his eyes at the cage and found out that it was empty.
"FUCKING HELL!" He shouted.

Jaden walked towards a tall tree and commanded the [All-severing Moonlight (Replica)] to take the form of a rope and threw it over a branch.
He then retracted it and pulled himself. He repeated it until he reached the top of the tree.
He took a deep breath and looked around with Realm Scan to find the area with the most star beasts or Nightmares.
A few minutes later, he stared to the left and mumbled, "There are 2 D ranks there... But it also has a C rank..."
He could easily fight with those of the same rank, but he wasn't sure about fighting a C rank... he still remembered how it went when he tried it last time.
"I can always run..." he mumbled before jumping down the tree using [All-severing Moonlight (Replica)] as a rope.
He once again summoned a Galewolf and climbed on its back before commanding it to run towards the two D-ranked star beasts.
A couple of minutes later, he sat on the wolf as he looked at a spider as big as an adult human. It had dark black armour covering it, and its web was also dark.
He positioned his camera and clicked the shutter button.
[You have captured a D-ranked Dark Armoured Spider.]
[Experience +40 (Capture)]
He didn't waste any time and commanded the Galewolf to move towards the next D-ranked star beast.
Sometime later, they stood a few meters away from a boar with earth-like skin.
A sound of a flash resounded in the jungle as a message appeared before him.
[You have captured a D-ranked Earthen Boar.]
[Experience +40 (Capture)]
[Ding!]
[Host has levelled up!]
[Host has reached level 17!]
A smile appeared on his face, which disappeared soon after as he heard the sound of a creaking wood.
He sharply turned to the sound and used Realm Scan.
"That C rank is here..." he mumbled, 'How did it find me?' He thought.
Suddenly, he saw a huge red lizard-like eye look at him before it disappeared.
He could no longer see the star beast, but he could feel a ravenous gaze at himself. He looked around and jumped from the wolf's back.
Just as he jumped, a message appeared before him.
[Summon Galewolf has been destroyed.]
[Its image has lost the colours.]
A dark look appeared on his face as he looked at his previous location. The ground was cracked, but he couldn't see anything.
He once again felt danger from his left and jumped back using [Gust Step].
A heavy thud, and the ground at his previous location cracked once again.
But this time, he was able to see the culprit; it was a lizard the size of a car with its body made out of water.
'It's using its water body and moonlight to conceal itself...' he concluded, and at the same time, he thought of a solution.
He took out the [All-severing Moonlight (Replica)] and commanded the Ice elementals to freeze it.
The ice elementals moved, and the lizard's skin began to freeze, but before it could freeze the whole of it, its body rippled, and it turned back to its normal flesh state.
"That's bad..." he mumbled as he stepped back, then he stopped as he thought, 'Wait! Isn't it too slow... I mean, it's strong, yes, but... Can't I kill it before it even hits me?'
'I can't do with my current speed but...'
"Add all available stats to agility," he commanded, and a screen appeared before him.
[Ding!]
[Added 5 Available stats to Agility (17) -> (22)]
"Let's do this!" He muttered before turning the [All-severing Moonlight (Replica)] into a Knight's sword.
His figure blurred as he used [Gust step] to attack the Aqua Lizard.
