"GLUUUUUUOP!"

"DAMN! I KNEW IT WAS FISHY!"

"Get back ESDEATH!"

"Tweet!"

ESDEATH retreated behind me.

"ALRIGHT YA BASTARD ITS TIME TO TEST OUT MY NEW WATER MAGIC!"

"BASIC WATER MAGIC AND BASIC WATER SHOT!"

Both skills appeared above me as lumps of blue light easily combining together and creating a stronger Water Shot, firing straight towards the River King. The Magic Water Shot flying as fast as the wing hit the River King right in the middle of its head killing it in one shot!

"YESSAH! HEADSHOT LETS GO! That's what you get for trying to eat my future wife!"

ESDEATH looked confused at the wife part.

"Cough cough"

Two powerful Magic Water Shots later the two River Kings bodies fell to the ground motionless.

「Haha! Nice shot!」

"Hmph that's what you get for disobeying your king losers!"

After the commotion, another River King came out, this one was the biggest that I have seen! It was completely covered in bright orange scales, it had two very long whiskers, a strong pair of muscular limbs, and a beautiful crest-like fin on its back. It looked fierce and angry!

"Oh? Are you the final boss of this River? The King of Kings! I'll call you River Emperor! Alright! Bring it on!"

As if enraged by my provocation the River Emperor activated all his active buffs and boosted his stat to the sky! An incredible pressure affected us, as I looked down the River Emperors' body had almost doubled in size and his entire body was covered in muscles and veins!

「Gluuuooooooooohh!」

In a mere second, the River Emperor disappeared out of my sight!

「What?! Where did it go? How can it be so fast?」

A second after I felt a strong force strike me in the back! It was the River Emperor with a sneak attack, it sent me flying directly into an old tree. The strong force of my crash split the tree in half.

「Gyaaaaahhh!」

The strong attack made me cough out blood!

「This is bad! This guy is completely in another league! If it wasn't for my Water Magic Armor I would have been dead!ESDEATH ! Distract him while I cast a strong Water spell!」

Esdeath began to consume a large amount of stamina to increase its speed by almost twice! Its incredible speed surprised the Emperor.ESDEATH , using its full speed created after images surrounding the Emperor confusing the gigantic walking fish. The fish wasn't able to even land a hit on esdeath at its full speed! Taking advantage of this esdeathstarted to fire water bullets from all directions!

「GUUU!」

Blood started to shoot out of the River Emperor's body while it yelled in pain.

「Gluoooooh!」

"Well done! Hang in there for a little longerEsdeath! I'm almost… Ready…!"

While esdeath distracted the Emperor, I tried to make a concentration of spells instead of firing them right away. Due to this, a big concentration of water accumulated over my head, I used almost all of my MP and but I was sure that this single attack would one-shot the River Emperor!

"Hehehehe! I'll show you how much I have improved this week! Combining Basic Water Elemental Magic, Basic Water Manipulation and Water Shot!"

I began to shape the big mass of water into a long stick with a sharp end.

「I will call it… Water Spear!」

Cutting through the air the gigantic water spear was shot from over my head, it's power was of atleast 40 water bullets and it cost Al of my mana.

if I didn't kill the River Emperor right now I would be completely dead! Thankfully the water spear went right through its head, cutting it in half! The water spear was so strong that it kept destroying the trees ahead of me for at least 50 meters.

[Certain requirements have been accomplished]

[You've learned a new skill]

[Water Spear: Level 1]

"Phew! We did it esdeath! It cost me all of my mana but we did it! Eh? ESDEATH where are you?!"

After not seeing esdeath alucard started yelling trying to find out where she is.

But soon I found her, she was off doing something by herself, I'm not too sure on what but I'll let her keep it to herself.

"Ahh! You scared me don't do it again!" I started to rub her head messing her little hair up a little

ESDEATH started to enjoy my rub.

I picked up the River emperors body and started to head back to my home, with esdeath in tow. ESDEATH looked at the trash place I have and I felt kind of embarrassed despite her being a non intelligent fairy so I explained to her.

"Cough- I know my place looks bad but I cannot be helped, I want to move in this mountain but I cannot dig inside so I made a little place right by a tree ok. Atleast were able to sleep although sometimes gotta be where of predators but yea." Alucard explained.

ESDEATH just looked at him and basically hummed as if she didn't care.

Atleast she doesn't care.. Alucard thought.

I started to roast the emperor and me and her started to eat it and I gotta admit it tasted like high quality salmon, it must be because it's a emperor level monster? I don't even know the ranks yet perhaps I should ask the system?

'System what are the ranks in this world?'

[The ranks go like this for monsters and most demi humans:

[Normal beast: Low-Mid-High, the golden eagle and walking fish are on this level

[King beast: Low-Mid-High, River kings are on this level

[Emperor beast: Low-Mid-High, River emperor was on this level and was a low ranking one. Only certain species can have a emperor level beast which appears through the title.

[Kaiser Beast: Low-Mid-High

[Overlord Beast: Low-Mid-High-Peak

[Living Deity Beast: 1-9 Cultivation style

[Humans and some demi human ranks:

[Apprentice: Low-Mid-High

[experianced adventurer: Low-Mid-High

[Elemental Knights: Blessed humans, Low-Mid-High

[Hero: Bless human who awakened to the next stage, Low-Mid-High

[Legendary hero: hero who has awakened and blessed by the world itself, Low-Mid-High-Peak

[Heavenly Creature: Legendary heroes who awakened a divinity, on par with living deity monsters/Demi humans.

[And then there are divinity which you will know when the time comes to host.

Alucard started to digest the information he has received.

"Hum, so the River emperor was an emperor type monster. And there are more of them then? I can't wait, they are quite tasty hehehe." Alucard started to drool thinking about the flavor of those monsters.

"Wait a minute, since I killed a emperor level monster then I too am an emperor Level? Or am I stronger? I think I'm a mid ranked since the fish was a bit weak and low ranked. Good to know."

Alucard then looked at esdeath and assumed her rank.

"Mmf maybe a high king ranked? Maybe even mid. Should become a emperor level once she evolves though."

I offered some of the emperors meat to esdeath and she started to eat with relish.

Seeing her eating it a system message suddenly came up.

[Ding!]

[Party Member: Servant Esdeath Learned the following skills]

[River Emperor Iron Body]

[High Water Affinity]

It seems my power can be shared with my servants, allowing them to obtain skills from consumed monsters.

"So my power can be shared then? It's quite cool. But why haven't I gotten any skills yet? Seems i will have to eat more!"

NOM NOM NOM SLLLLURRRRP.

After eating a bit too much for me I finally got some skills.

[You've obtained a new title: River Emperor]

[You've learned the following skills]

[River Emperors Iron Body]

[River Emperors Incredible Endurance]

[River Emperors Pressure]

[Control Minions]

[Very High Water Affinity]

"Sheesh emperor levels monsters sure do give me a lot of skills! I'm definitely gonna have to eat more kekeke."

Seeing one of the skills I got I decided to look at its description.

[Control Minions: Needs to act in combination with River Emperors Pressure to successfully make weaker beings your minions, after making a weaker being your minion you can give it orders and add it to your party.]

"So enslavement? Maybe that's why the River kings were abnormally stupid. Time to see what the others do now.."

[River Emperors Iron Body: (Active skill) for a set amount of time increase your strength and defense by +100 for 100 mana.

[River Emperors Incredible Endurance: (Passive Skill) (Permanent) Damage is reduced by 5%]

[River Emperor Pressure: (Active skill) For a set amount of time you can produce an incredible pressure that makes any weaker being tremble in fear! High chance to paralyze target, it also increases the chances of making a minion obey you]

[Title: River Emperor: A title given to those who have defeated the current River Emperor! Water affinity +20, increase the chance of successfully making a minion by 10% (As long as you own this Title, no more River Emperor type monsters can generate in the area: River)]

"These skills sure are convenient, with the pressure the chances of getting minions is more so I can complete the mission the system gave me!"

"Seems I'm gonna be a slave owner hahaha! Yea, not really funny."

Deciding to go to sleep, alucard rested on his bed and saw esdeath make her way over and laid down on his chest.

"Sweet dreams my fairy."

I decided to check my status one last time before sleeping.

"Your stats are so good! Good job esdeath. In one more level you'll be able to evolve!!"

I rubbed her little head in congratulations.

ESDEATH started to get tired and thus started sleeping on my chest.

"I suppose I'll sleep too."

With that, I went to sleep.
