Insect Tamer's Ascension-Chapter 111: Blaze-wing Eagle
Theo's days passed very peacefully. He decided to only level up until he reached level 5.
Now that he was allowed to go deep into the viper's territory, things had become quite fun too.
The vipers were greater in number, and the pup found them very quickly.
With the help of the boar and the mantis, the grass all around them was proficiently cleared.
Now, even when he came again and again to the forest, the grass only grew by a little, so a path was always paved.
Along with this, Theo also found out a very interesting piece of information. It was related to why he rarely saw anyone in the forest, even though it was the only place where everyone who came to the town—or was a citizen—could come and level up.
It was all because this was simply not the main entrance of the forest. Theo always entered from the area that faced the Merrick castle in the distance.
According to Clara, the number of beasts he was defeating here was very good, as normally, not a lot were found.
But since this area was near the castle and nobody dared come close, the beasts had a lot of time to recoup their numbers, especially the vipers.
Theo needed 820 Experience points to finally reach level 5, and he wasn't even halfway there.
After another day of just defeating vipers, it was finally not worth it to go back there.
Even when they reached a certain depth of the outskirts, the number of vipers only dwindled with time, and there was nothing worth defeating.
It was on that day when Theo finally decided to go to the Ironback boar's territory.
While they were difficult to defeat and were sometimes found in packs, they were the best options out of all of them.
Theo at the very least wanted to try fighting them once.
But before that, he had to fulfill a certain promise that he had made some time ago.

"I am very excited today, little brother."
In Warren's carriage, this time, it was livelier than usual as four people were sitting inside.
"I did not get the time to accompany you all this time, elder brother. I hope you are not mad," Theo said and chuckled.
While Bram had wanted to go to the forest the very next day, it had already been five. Only when Clara reminded Theo did he realize.
"I am just happy we could come together this time, Theo. Although, Clarry is quite slow, so we have to be slow too…" Bram spoke and became a bit disappointed in the end.
Theo only shook his head and responded in good humor.
Outside the carriage, there was something else walking beside it too.
It was a small Thunderhoof Ox calf with small horns on its head. There wasn't even much hair on its body, and the only notable things were its innocent-looking eyes and long legs.
Theo observed it multiple times through the carriage's open window and couldn't help but realize something.
"Elder brother, your beast is just like you."
"O-Oh? How so?" Bram asked with curiosity.
Although the two attendants beside them had already realized what he was trying to say.
"It is as sweet as you," Theo said while looking at it.
"A-Ah, I am glad you think like that."
Although he didn't understand how to respond to that, Bram still spoke with nobleness, which made others think about how cute he was again. It was never going to get old.

"Theo, how many slimes have you defeated till now? You're already level 3," Bram asked with focus.
Theo was amused by the question. "Hmm… I don't remember how many exactly… maybe 30? No, a little more than that," Theo stated while thinking.
Bram's attendant looked at Clara with some surprise in her eyes, and on the other hand, Bram just stared with his jaw agape.
"More than 30?! That's amazing, Theo!"
Theo was surprised by Bram's excitement for him; it made his already good mood even better.
There was something about the innocent thinking of a child that made one feel relaxed, as if there was still a place in the world with little to no manipulation or overall negative emotions. Just a child happy for another.
"Don't worry, elder brother. I will make you level up at least once today, no matter what. It will be fun," Theo said with a side grin on his face.
As usual, everyone could see the elder siblings and the famed baron in his expression.
"I can't wait!"
The way to the forest was as lively as it could get, and time passed very quickly for everyone. In ten minutes, they reached the outskirts of the forest—Theo felt nostalgic coming back here.
They all got off it, and Theo observed the demeanor of both Bram and his attendant. While Bram was taking deep breaths, his attendant on the other hand seemed confident which should have been the case nonetheless.
She was wearing armor identical to Clara's, and before Theo knew it, she placed a hand on her forehead, and two lights came out of it.
Theo and Clara looked at the two new beasts in front of them. While one was very familiar, the other was something Theo had not seen before.
______________
Petrastone Ape
Uncommon
Level 6
Type- Earth Beast
______________
Blaze-wing Eagle
Uncommon
Level 4
Type- Aerial Beast
______________
Theo's gaze fell on the big bird that had hopped onto the ground with focus. He instinctively went on guard.
It was the first time he had seen an eagle as big as this one.
It had majestic brown feathers and eyes that were not only sharp but also very intimidating. Its wings opened once, and Theo saw a bright orange color on them.
It looked everywhere with precision.
On the other hand, the ape in front of them was almost the same size as the one they had defeated.
Theo felt a little intimidated by its presence, yet after remembering that fight again, he forcefully brought his confidence back.
While both these beasts were somewhat unique, Theo could still feel that the boar was stronger.
Bram's attendant looked at Theo with an amused smile; it seemed she was looking forward to his reaction.
Yet it was Clara whose expressions were the most noteworthy.
