The trip toward the Demonic Beasts' Forest would have been unremarkable were it not for Krann's booming footsteps that shook the earth and left deep prints within the ground. The noise reached such a threshold that Konrad could no longer endure it.
"Krann, use your Transformation Skill to adopt a human size."
"As you command, master."
Krann replied before executing Konrad's order. Just like Konrad, he was equipped with a Transformation Skill that could deceive even Saints and help him conceal his cultivation and true form if need be.
Using it, Krann went from nine to 1.7 meter, turning into a short and stocky monster that obediently walked behind Konrad. Though less imposing, the change in shape did nothing to diminish his powers.
As they reached the forest's edge, through mental orders, Konrad signaled for the nearly eight thousand demonic beasts to make their way toward him in orderly fashion.
