Time flowed on and based on the sun's position and warm looking sky, it was roughly around 2 PM. At this hour, Little Rose was already sleeping like an adorable angel on top of her mother, who was similarly at rest.

Grevlin was also soundly sleeping as Marius sat up with a sour face while staring in the direction of his wife, the sheet was loosely covering her glossy skin that was exposed, capable of stirring the souls of any man.

Marius sighed as he thought to himself, 'Looks like I'll need to hold off until later...'

After thinking those thoughts, he bit his lips and calm himself down before looking at his stats sheet.

When Marius saw his current details, he nodded his head in satisfaction for his current progress; he then glanced at his Mastery Points and frowned while thinking, 'As I've thought, these points aren't going to be so easily attainable. I'll need to work even harder; I haven't even invoked a Daily Mission since I got here... it seems that constant battle is the only way.'

After wrapping up his ponderings, Marius looked outside at the day nearing its end, he thought for a bit before getting up and heading out as he wanted to train again before nightfall.

Marius prepared to move, but his eyes soon shifted to the ground, there he notices that the two adorable looking tigers cubs were currently sprawled over.

'Hmm? Come to think of it; I didn't check out these little guys now, did I? Let's have a looksy,' Marius thought as his eyes glowed as he commanded for their details to appear before his eyes.

Marius was a bit surprised upon seeing their stats; he couldn't help but stare at the cute little tiger cubs as he contemplated, 'Wow! Are these Third Class Mystic Beasts, to think their talent was so great, hmm, Extreme Growth Potential... I wonder what this means?'

As Marius's thoughts reached here, the system seemed to have heard his words as it promptly replied.

____

Marius hearing those words made a look of understanding as he thought, 'Incredible, so they can grow to such a scale, it seems that my children are truly blessed to have acquired such creatures.'

Marius felt his mood rise, he rose to his feet and prepared to leave for some more training, but he noticed that Grevlin rubbed his eyes and yawned as he slowly sat up on the bed.

Marius looked at him gently before his face hardened as he spoke, "Grevlin, I am heading out to train, now that you are up, its time I taught you about the works."

Grevlin who had only just rubbed his eyes looked at Marius with a somewhat dazed look, but as if he only heard his words, his face soon brightened as he jumped to his feet and spoke, "Train? Okay father, I want to come too,"

Marius nodded; he knew that Grevlin had mistaken his words for playing, but he didn't want to remind him for now. He promptly picked up the battle-ax he left at the side of his room and walked out the door while speaking, "Come on, let's head out now, we must come back before the nightfall."

"Okay," Grevlin replied softly, ensuring not to disturb his mother and little sister.

Yet, as both left, Ria, who seemingly slept, glanced towards their direction with a strange look in her eyes. Her mouth corners curved into a smile as she murmured, "So, my little Grev-Grev is going to start his first real training; this should be fun..." As she said this, both her and Little Rose faded after a clump of purple flames ignited around them.

Moments after, the flames vanished as no one remained in the room, and the scene was now one of silence. The two soon left the building, as Grevlin ran off to the lake to wash his face while Marius stood at the stone doorway with the gate that led to the outskirts of this strange mountain range.

Currently, the Mountain Ax Senior was currently missing, causing Marius to looked at the empty log with a few scattered bits of wood in puzzlement, but he paid it no mind.

Not long after, Grevlin had returned from the lake with his face soaked wet as he spoke with an innocent smile, "Father I'm back,"

Marius sighed at this as he stooped down and dried his face with his shirt. Grevlin seemed to enjoy this kind of treatment as he closed his eyes, enjoying his father's care.

"All done, come now, your real training starts today," Marius said with a gentle smile as he walked forward into the strange portal.

Grevlin looked at this curiously before he similarly followed along, the two silhouettes vanishing from this area through a screen that rippled as if they left through a rippling lake.

The outskirts were rather peaceful as all the morning activity had faded by a section. The more powerful predators had already gotten their day's fill, leaving behind the weak to scuffle around in search of prey.

At this time, a small critter was currently scurrying about a patch of grass; it was a peculiar beast, one that was roughly three times the size of a regular house cat, with similar features and striped skin. Its only difference was its tree eyes and tail which had a glowing purple crystal embedded within it.

This creature was the Crystal Tail Cat, a fragile but savage beast of the lower ranks, very adept at survival with as it was born with astonishing speed and dexterity.

The Crystal Tail Cat was currently moving through the underbrush in a stealth manner. Still, as if it noticed something, its ears twitched as its slit pupils peeked out of the shrubs towards two individuals of varying sizes that had only now appeared from a strange-looking door.

Its eyes showed a trace of hesitance as it stared at the largest figure, but as it glanced at the smaller individual who was only a few steps larger than itself, its eyes glowed in a cold ray as it perched itself in attacking posture.

Marius, who had just now scanned his surroundings with his instinctive mastery of his Mystic Power, had sensed the nearby Crystal Tail Cat that was waiting below in a valley.

However, Marius only smirked as he glanced at Grevlin, looking around curiously on his face, an innocent look that would make one want to hug him.

Marius's face turned cold, very much like that of a stern and hard father as he spoke, "Grevlin…"

When Grevlin heard this, he looked up at Marius innocently and replied, "Yes, father?"

Marius reached his hand onto Grevlin's back and picked him up, Grevlin thought Marius was going to play with him, but much to his shock, Marius tossed him in the direction of the Crystal Tail Cat causing his heart to sink as he spoke, "Survive..."

A cold sounding voice as Marius seemed to have faded into the surroundings, but as for Grevlin, he was merely one step from falling into hell.
