Kapitel 73: Clingy
The spider still had around 50 000 HP left, but it was in a terrible state, it's back was broken and Adam was still on top of it.
He roared "SUBMIT!" before punching its back multiple times. He only stopped hitting it when it had less than 1000 HP.
At that point, he jumped in front of its head and pressed his hand on it, making it hit the ground. He could see a single emotion in its eyes, and that was fear. He grinned and roared at it for the remaining of his double Berserk State.
Even when his skill ended, and his body became weaker, the boss didn't even dare to move. Adam stopped roaring for a moment, to get a deep look of its eyes. Despite the spider having 8 ugly eyes, with two of them destroyed, Adam could see a terrible fear in them, and yet it wasn't submitting.
Adam hesitated for a moment before letting go of its head. The spider looked at him confused, and he said "I don't know if you can understand me, but if you can, I am warning you, if you don't submit, you will die. Why would you want to die, when you can just come with me?"
The spider lowered its head, as if it could understand him. Adam slowly patted its head, and said "Submit little one."
['Black Heart Spider' wishes to become your pet!]
Adam smiled brightly, finally! He directly accepted, and was worried when he heard a new notification, he feared the boss would also be weakened. He was relieved when he read the message though.
[You have tamed 'Black Heart Spider'!]
[Pet Space unlocked!]
[Spiritual Connection unlocked!]
Adam continued stroking the spider's head when he suddenly heard a young girl's voice in his head 'Master.'
Adam looked at the spider in shock, so that was what the Spiritual Connection was? He replied in his mind 'Do you have a name?'
'I don't, can master give me one?'
[Your pet wishes for you to give her a name!]
Adam smiled and after a moment he said 'Neith.'
'I like the name, master. From now on, I shall be known as Neith.'
Adam then said 'Rest for now, we will talk later.' Neith nodded and Adam sent her to the pet space, where she began healing.
Adam then walked toward the chest, for which he had great expectations since he didn't get the loot from Neith. But even if the chest turned out to be empty, he wouldn't care. Getting Neith as a pet already made the whole adventure worth it. Actually, taming Neith was even better than he could think, but he would learn that later.
Adam approached the chest with obvious greed in his eyes, but before he opened it he kicked the chest, just in case it was actually a hidden monster, a mimic. It wasn't.
Now sure there weren't any danger, Adam finally opened the chest, revealing several items in it. First was five pieces of [Dark Gold Iron Ore], as well as several uninteresting resources.
For the most important items, the equipments. All of them were Level 30, five of them were Common Grade, three were Uncommon and the last one was a Rare equipment. Unfortunately there weren't any Exceptional equipment, but that was to be expected since this was a dungeon. If he had killed Neith then he would have most assuredly gotten one, but again, taming her was even better.
Adam didn't even bother looking at the Common and Uncommon items, they just weren't worth it anymore. However, he was happy to find out the Rare equipment was a Ring!
Although he would have preferred a necklace, since it was his weakest piece of equipment right now, but he also needed a new ring, since the [Geppo Ring] was made for assassins and was too low leveled right now.
So Adam stored everything in his bag and only kept the ring in his hand, examining it.
[Clingy Ring] (Rare, Level 30)
Agility: +250
Clingy (Passive): Become capable of clinging on any hard surface.
As expected, this was also a ring more fitting for an assassin. However, it was much better compared to the [Geppo Ring], and not just because of the attributes, but also the skill. Hiding in the darkness could really only be useful to an assassin, but walking on walls could be useful for other things than fighting.
Adam immediately swapped the two rings and headed for the exit of the dungeon. Then, he immediately headed for the dwarf village. There were some monsters on the way, but even while weakened he was stronger than before his promotion, so he had no problem reaching there.
Dwarven villages could be easily recognized because unlike most villages in the world, the houses weren't made of wood, but rather metal and rocks. Adam didn't really know why that was the case, he didn't find sleeping in a metal house comfortable, but maybe their dwarven physiology made it better for them.
Anyway, once in the village Adam immediately headed for the village leader, Orin, house. Once there, he actually met Orin who was getting out of his house. The old dwarf smiled at him and said "I see you got your promotion. I hope you got a satisfying class."
Adam nodded and said "I did. And the spiders in the mine are no longer a danger."
Orin asked "How? You couldn't have killed it." Adam smiled and said "I didn't kill it, indeed." Orin nodded but then Adam added "I tamed it instead."
Orin looked at Adam in shock and said "Are you joking with me? What are you, a Sovereign?!"
Once again, Adam smiled but said nothing. Orin rolled his eyes and said "If you tamed the beast, then show it to me."
Adam shrugged and retrieved Neith from the pet space. Neith already had the time to recover, however she too was in a weakened state after having used her berserk skill.
Some dwarves screamed in fright upon seeing a ten meters tall spider appear in the middle of their village, but they calmed down after seeing it didn't attack anyone. Adam looked at Orin, and found out the old dwarf wasn't moving at all. He wasn't even blinking.
'Master?' Adam looked up at Neith and said 'Those are the dwarves who used to work in the mine you occupied. They must be scared seeing you.'
'Sorry…' Adam smiled, she was shier than she looked. Adam walked to Orin and patted his shoulder, awakening him from his daze. Orin did wake up, but he muttered "Impossible."
Adam asked "What's impossible?" Orin said "How did you tame a Chosen monster?!" Adam scratched his head and said "Well, we fought, I won, she submitted. What does being a Chosen mean?"
Orin turned to look at Adam and asked "You don't even know how lucky you are?!" Adam shrugged, and after a moment Orin said "For humanoids, our potential is determined by our classes, and Sovereigns are the strongest. For monsters, their bloodline determines their talent. Chosen monsters are the equivalent of Sovereigns."
Adam looked at Neith, so she was that talented? That meant good news for him. He asked "Is she stronger than other Overlords?"
Orin said "She will, but there's more. Chosen monsters have access to evolution stages that normal monsters can't get too. For example, for normal monsters, after becoming Lords, the next stage is Noble. But Chosen monsters have an intermediary stage, the Overlord stage. Once in this Intermediary stage.
That's why, nurturing such a pet is very, very hard, and even in the wild most Chosen monsters die before growing to their full potential, like Sovereigns. But if you can nurture her well, then as an Overlord she is as strong as a Noble Monster of the same level, and if she becomes a Noble too then she will become unrivaled amongst monsters of that rank."
