Warlock of War: My Ares System-Chapter 272 Improving

"We still have things to do, but it's best for us to law low. We'll leave the city and travel to the outskirts where the imp camps were previously… a bit of training should do," I muttered, and as everybody else nodded with agreement, we continued our dash down the horny streets of this city.

The lingering smell of aphrodisiac hung in the air, and the putrid smell of sweat created thick fog in each sex establishment.

Even restaurants… normal everyday restaurants had a twist on them, whether that be through a sexy little show or literally just an under-the-table blow job.

"Disgusting," I muttered with a salty expression.

I knew I had to get stronger and really figure out what my domain could do… everybody knew what theirs was capable of, but mine was way too ambiguous to actually get a good grasp on what its full potential was. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

…

"So, did he do anything to you guys?" I asked while preparing some dinner for the entire group, who were all practically drooling over the meat I pulled from my storage ring.

"No, not really. There was a bit of tormenting while we were captured, but besides that, there was nothing else," Luna replied, laying down on a bed of prickly dead grass.

"And how did you handle that?" I turned to Bella, who was currently talking with Cy.

"It was a bit scary since his power practically drooled over the entire dungeon we were in, but after only a few hours, I was completely used to it," Bella smirked, yet when I turned to Luna, I saw her rolling her eyes.

"I'm guessing that isn't true,"

"Huh?! That is true-"

"It's not, but it's fine. I took care of her, and that's that… anyway, what the hell was that earlier? I've never seen that before?"

Of course, Luna over here was referring to my silly little antics while using my throne world, which I guess is something she hasn't seen before.

"It's called a throne world, and contrary to my predictions, it is a very useful tool in battle. I initially thought it was something that boosted your power like my throne world, yet the throne worlds of everybody else were pretty different. Findir can basically control any wind he can touch, and even though it saps tons of mana, he can wipe out an entire camp of imps with ease. Next, Aisa can make a big fuck-off lightning bolt, and Cy… well, he doesn't have a throne world yet,"

"So what you're getting at is that we three have to learn a throne world as well? Only then can we face up against that bastard,"

"Indeed… now, the training regime for the next month will be excruciating taxing, though I doubt you all will give up… right?" I slightly taunted the group before me, and as they all let out a long sigh, each and every single one of them nodded their heads. "Good."

…

In the morning, we were to scout imp camps, and by the end of the afternoon, we would have to have wiped out at least ten imp camps by the end of the day.

Failure to meet this requirement will result in a punishment made by everybody else, which added a bit more pressure since we all knew how cruel we could all be.

Using anything against the imp camps was, of course, permitted, whether that be an overpowered throne world or cutting off the oxygen to a camp embedded within a mountain.

…

"This freaking sucks," I muttered as I looked at my status, which had barely risen three levels after the previous week and today of training.

This was going to be a long, very painful ride to the next evolution, but it excited me that I could actually evolve.

Humans and elves were the only race on that planet that couldn't evolve while everybody else could… though that was very few since most of the population of the world was actually made up of humans and elves.

Also, I assume the elf category includes dark elves since Findir hasn't managed to evolve ever since we first met him.

"*sigh*... Alright, that's ten imp camps right there… let's get going now," I muttered before quickly dashing through the forest.

I thought I would be the first one back, but it seemed Cy had been waiting there for such a long time that he had taken a nap waiting for us.

"Show off," I lightly smirked and covered him with a blanket before chugging down a bottle of water, moistening my completely dry and arid throat.

It felt as if somebody had poured sand down my esophagus and forced me to drink it like it was an actual liquid.

Each gulp of water was excruciating, but I eventually managed to push everything down and made sure not to throw it up.

"Ugh… everything here is so disgusting," I cringed to myself.

For about another hour, I waited and waited until a collective group of Luna, Aisa, and Findir came back to the camp all cheery and excited.

"Where's Bella?" I asked.

"I thought she was with you?"

We waited another hour and then another and then another and then another until finally… in the dead of midnight, she came back to the camp exhausted.

"I-I couldn't find any camps! It took me way too long to get to ten!" She complained.

And suddenly, Luna and Cy, who had just woken up, began to smile viciously.
