Creating A Succubus Army In A Fantasy World!-Chapter 18: A Beast Tide!

Creed sat cross-legged on his bed, grinning like an idiot as he flicked his fingers at the floating green ball of energy hovering in front of him.

The tiny sphere pulsed and swirled, shifting shapes like it had a mind of its own. With a simple thought, he made it stretch, then compress, then wiggle like a jellyfish.

...This was fun.

Way too fun.

If someone walked in right now, they'd see a grown man playing with a glowing stress ball like an excited toddler.

But this wasn't just a glowing ball of energy.

This was Force.

What Is Force?

Force was the fundamental source for discharge. It was the basic requirements to be able to release techniques.

Without it, an Awakened couldn't cast techniques like lightning bolt, fireballs or icicles.

Also, with force, they could begin to comprehend Intents, which were the true marks of an elite fighter.

Right now, Creed had just formed his Force Core, and yet he was already producing Force.

Already manipulating it.

That was insane.

Most people had to spend several hours—sometimes even days—just trying to produce a single strand of Force!

Yet here he was, barely an hour later, treating it like a toy.

Creed stopped messing with the energy ball and rubbed his chin, thinking deeply.

The Primordial Essence...

That single item had instantly pushed him into enlightenment, making everything effortless.

If he hadn't used it, who knew how long it would've taken him to form his Core?

A few hours? A week?

Maybe even longer?

Yet now...

Now he actually had a chance.

A real shot at catching up to those higher-tier bastion prodigies who had been Awakened years before him.

Those guys had money, resources, personal trainers, and bloodlines that made them ridiculously strong.

Creed?

He had debt, an empty fridge, and a lusty succubus living in his chest.

But now, thanks to the Primordial Essence, he wasn't just catching up, he was breaking ahead.

Creed exhaled and pulled up his System Interface. His stats appeared in glowing text, and his eyes went straight to his free stat points.

He had received another one after his last feeding session with Lilith.

Without hesitation, he added the stat point into Strength.

And then—

BOOM!

A sudden rush of power flooded his body. His muscles tightened, his bones hardened, and his blood felt like it was burning with energy.

Creed's eyes widened. This wasn't a small increase. This was significant.

It was like going from lifting a backpack to lifting a motorcycle in an instant.

If just two stat points gave him this much improvement...

How terrifying would it be if he added 30 all into one stat?

Feeling satisfied, Creed stretched and flopped onto his bed, ready to finally sleep. Tomorrow was going to be a big day, and he needed rest.

But then..

[DING!]

A bright System Screen popped up in front of him.

[Due to the presence of a Fundamental Core in the Host's body, some previously dormant features have now been activated.

Creed sat up immediately, blinking.

"...Huh?"

[Ding! Host has gained a new skill: [PRIMORDIAL LINK]]

Creed froze.

What. The. Hell. Was. That?!

His heartbeat quickened as he pulled up the details of the skill.

[Primordial Link]

[Forms a link between the Host and their Primordial Summon. Allows the Host to use the talent of their Summon as if it were their own.]

Creed just stared at the screen. Then he read it again. Then one more time.

WHAT?!

Creed grabbed his head, his thoughts going haywire.

Did this mean—?!

Did this mean he could use—

LILITH'S POWER?!

That crazy, purple-haired Succubus who could summon lightning like a thunder god?!

He could use that now?!

"...This is broken."

This was beyond broken. If this was a video game, the developers would patch this skill out immediately.

Because now Creed wasn't just a guy with a strong summon anymore.

He was a guy with MULTIPLE talents!

Creed grinned wildly, his mind racing with possibilities. If he could use Lilith's abilities, then what about his future summons?

If he got a Summon with incredible speed, he'd be as fast as lightning.

If he got a Summon with crazy regeneration, he'd be unkillable.

If he got a Summon with gravity control—he'd be flying through the city like a damn superhero.

He could stack abilities.

Combine them.

Become a monster among monsters!

Creed chuckled to himself, gripping his sheets in excitement. The world didn't know it yet, but they were in trouble now.

.....

Creed crouched behind a crumbling stone wall, his breath steady, his grip firm on his spear.

The ruins stretched endlessly before him. It was silent, desolate, and filled with danger.

Lilith stood beside him, her purple hair flowing like silk, her violet eyes gleaming with excitement.

In Creed's hands were four stage 1 pure crystals, each pulsing with vibrant energy.

They had killed four Low Stage 1 Dimensional Beasts just this morning, and yet they had barely broken a sweat.

Hunting in the wastelands beyond the Bastion was dangerous for most people.

For Creed, it was necessary. Because the 10,000 credit debt hanging over his head wasn't going to pay itself.

And his rent was already 3,500 credits overdue.

His landlord wasn't going to smile and wave when he knocked on the door.

Nope.

Creed needed money, and he needed it fast. He glanced toward the distant shadowy treeline beyond the ruins.

The true wilds began there. But inside that forest, only death awaited him.

The Dimensional Beasts in those woods weren't just stronger. They were smarter, faster, and infinitely deadlier in their groups.

Even the Bronze hunters of the Bastion avoided that place. If he went in, he wouldn't be coming back out.

So, staying in the ruins was the only option for now.

Creed looked around and frowned. Something felt off. He was getting too far from the Bastion's gate.

How did he even get this deep?

The answer was obvious. Lilith had gotten stronger. After last night's "feast", her power had increased, making her even deadlier in battle.

But that wasn't all.

The real game-changer was the Primordial Link Skill. He wasn't just fighting with Lilith anymore.

He was fighting with her talent!

The power boost was absurd. And as dangerous as it was thrilling.

Just as Creed was about to speak, a deep, guttural growl echoed through the ruins.

His head snapped up.

A massive, white-furred creature emerged from the rubble ahead. Its icy blue eyes locked onto him, fangs bared in a bloodthirsty snarl.

A Snow Wolf.

Creed tapped his Dimensional bracelet, and a holographic readout appeared.

[ Dimensional Beast Identified: Low Stage 1 Snow Wolf. ]

Creed and Lilith exchanged looks, then grinned.

In an instant, they exploded into action.

Creed's body was suddenly wrapped in crackling purple lightning just like Lilith.

His speed surged. His strength surged!

The Snow Wolf leaped forward...

And they pounced at the same time.

The battle lasted five moves.

First, Creed dodged the wolf's attack—barely.

Boom!

Second, Lilith grabbed its tail and swung it like a ragdoll into a wall.

Third, Creed stabbed out with his spear—but the wolf twisted away.

Fourth, Lilith sent a punch of purple lightning slamming into its side.

And finally—

BOOM!

Creed thrust his spear forward, channeling all his remaining energy into a blast of raw lightning.

The wolf howled, spasmed and collapsed.

Dead.

Creed stumbled backward, panting hard. His body felt... empty.

A quick glance at his Dimensional Interface confirmed it.

[Energy: 0%]

Damn.

So that's how it worked.

The Primordial Link Skill was amazing, but it had a cost. And that cost was his energy.

Once it ran out, he was done. That meant he needed to start prioritizing his Energy stat. Otherwise, he'd be screwed in longer battles.

For the next two hours, Creed and Lilith pushed deeper into the ruins.

They took down four more Dimensional Wolves—each one easier than the last.

Creed's movements became faster, his instincts sharper.

Lilith fought like a dancing storm, flickering between shadows, landing devastating strikes.

By the time the last beast fell—

Creed was exhausted. Lilith was hungry. It was time to go home. They had made enough.

Just as they turned to leave, it happened.

THOOM.

A distant, thunderous rumble echoed across the land.

Creed froze.

Lilith's eyes widened.

The ground trembled beneath them.

And then...

A terrifying sound erupted from beyond the ruins.

A sound so massive, so unnatural that Creed's face drained of all color.

Thousands of animals running. All at once. A stampede!

No.

A Beast Tide!

Creed's heart stopped.

"...Oh, f***."
