Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith-Chapter 274 Obliterated

As soon as those words left Lyrian's lips, all of his creatures got amped up.

Garmr was ready to prove himself as his master's greatest beast, while Zuuc wanted to prove badly that he was the strongest!

Tao, on the other hand, was a bit more difficult to figure out for the average person, but since Lyrian could read Tao's mind, that wasn't much of a problem.

'You want to be the strongest as well... but not just to show that you're the strongest, but to earn the title, huh?' Lyrian mused, reading exactly what the Duskwing Pheon was thinking through its eyes.

Tao nodded in response, as Lyrian smirked. "Sure... if that's what helps you slay the beast."

Lyrian faced the Hydro Serpent, which was still itching to fight. "Go," he said calmly, as all of his beasts immediately darted forward with pure determination in their eyes.

Garmr had a predatory stare, locked onto his prey without a hint of confusion. Zuuc had a menacing smile on his face as he transformed into his elder state, adrenaline flowing through his veins.

Tao was less predatory and less excited. He was completely zoned in, with a nonchalant yet fierce expression.

Lyrian expected this to be an entertaining brawl, but his mouth gaped slightly in astonishment as he saw what took place...

Tao was the first to reach the serpent, as he spun in the air fast enough to look like a Beyblade and tore through the side of the snake's abdomen in one fast motion.

A large chunk of meat was shredded into pieces, splattering dark red blood into the water.

The Hydro Serpent exclaimed its agony, but before it could make a move, a giant wolf appeared before it.

It froze for a moment, gazing into the monstrous eyes of the Direwolf. Garmr chomped the serpent's mouth, as a loud crunch sounded.

He then shook his head violently, tearing the front of the snake's face off in an instant. With it, he continued his lunge to the other side of the pond.

The serpent was surely finished now, but it was still breathing.

Less than a second after Garmr's attack, Zuuc appeared before the snake and unleashed a forceful punch into its neck, leaving a deep indent.

He too landed on the other side of the pond, and this all happened in 5 seconds...

The snake began to fall over from the trauma and pain, but as it did, Garmr lunged in once again, grabbing onto the back of its neck before tearing a large chunk off.

He also destroyed the serpent's spinal cord, killing it instantly as it plunged into the water. The splash was big enough to reach Lyrian's feet, who was standing over 10 feet away from the water's edge.

He was dumbfounded at what he saw. But then, a grin donned his face.

"Garmr... you are now General," he proclaimed, as the ferocious Direwolf suddenly began to pant quickly, sticking its tongue out; as it wagged its tail and kneeled in front of Lyrian submissively.

"What!? Unfair! I have killed the beast! I should be General!" Zuuc exclaimed in frustration. Tao was also slightly shocked as he flew over to Lyrian's side of the water bed.

"Tao, although your stats are the best, you are still the youngest. What the other two lack in power, they surpass you in wisdom," Lyrian said, looking over to Zuuc.

"Well... maybe not all of them," he teased, "Next time I have a power contest... I expect you to defeat these two."

On hearing this, Tao simply closed his eyes. He understood what Lyrian said, and would try his best to make up for his losses in the future.

Garmr had no reaction, happy to serve his master's words. Zuuc, however, wasn't so happy.

"How can you expect a bird to defeat me? I will be the strongest," the Hobgoblin proclaimed, seemingly upset.

"Zuuc," Lyrian said in a serious tone, "You are weaker than Tao, and you will most likely never defeat Tao." These words seemed to throw Zuuc back slightly. He didn't expect to hear them at that moment.

"However, your goal is not to defeat Tao in a contest of strengths." As Lyrian said this, Zuuc quieted down and listened to his creator's words.

"My order of beasts will continue to grow, and as it does, I do not expect each one to be the strongest. That is not your duty. Your duty is to try your best to serve me. Whatever request I may give, whatever inquiry I may have, whatever idea I may muse, it is your duty to fulfill. If done so right, then you are my greatest creation."Lyrian's words sounded profound. 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐨𝗿𝗴

Zuuc didn't speak for a moment, thinking through Lyrian's statement.

Lyrian could tell that Zuuc understood his commands, but that the Hobgoblin also wanted to continue striving for power.

Noticing this, Lyrian said, "But, for now, I want you to continue to be as strong as possible. Not to defeat Tao or any other of my beasts, but to serve me better." As soon as Lyrian said this, a smile appeared on Zuuc's face.

Now, he could continue his quest for limitless power without any hindrance in his mind.

"I shall do that!" the beast exclaimed excitedly. "Good... now-" Lyrian paused, hearing a rustle in the bushes nearby. 'Shadow.' He immediately thought as all of his creatures disappeared into his shadow.

As Garmr disappeared, he left the Hydro Serpent's crowned jewel on the floor. Lyrian noticed this, but before picking it up, he turned to see what made the noise.

As he turned, he was surprised to see a body walk out of the forest. This boy also looked to be a second-year. He walked with his hands on his knees and looked similar to Roswil.

Seeing this caused Lyrian to raise his guard. The only thing differentiating the boy from Roswil was that he had short hair instead of a long ponytail, and his eyes were a shade of green, instead of brown.

"My my... that was... interesting," the boy exclaimed, smiling as he walked toward Lyrian.
