Supreme BeastTamer: I Can Copy and Upgrade Skills 10x!

Staaab!

Keauch!

Crunch!

Nox's muscles rippled as his dagger flashed through the air, slicing the ants in his path. The satisfying crunch of their bodies shattering echoed across the battlefield, accompanied by their painful shrieks.

"The dagger training paid off," Nox grinned, locking eyes with the crimson Scourge Ant Queen standing on the opposite side of the battlefield. Sensing his intention, the ants formed a barricade to stop him and his two beasts from reaching their queen.

"Are they trying to wear me out?" Nox thought. His dagger flashed again, and an ant's mandibles thudded to the ground, green blood splattering.

"If that's their plan, it's working. My stamina is gradually decreasing."

[Stamina: 80/100%]

'I need to kill the Queen. From the look of things, she seems to be the one controlling the rest. This makes me wonder: what would happen if she stops giving commands? Would the ants become less coordinated?'

Swoosh!

Nox summoned his shield just in time to deflect a beam of green poison. Thanks to the shield's magical properties, the green liquid barely affected the ground as it incinerated it.

The giant ant that fired the poison shrieked angrily as its attack was deflected. It brought its mandibles down to snap Nox in half, but he was too nimble.

The shield slammed into the ant's mandibles with a low crunch, suggesting a broken jaw and leaving the beast momentarily disoriented.

[-14HP!]

[Critical Hit!]

Nox knew the creature would remain disoriented due to the critical hit, so he didn't waste a second. He buried the dagger into the beast's head, causing it to explode into smithereens.

After dealing with that ant, Nox briefly scanned the battlefield. He saw Fluffington and Thirteen causing carnage. Fluffington used his sharp claws to dismantle the ants, while Thirteen rammed into them in his curled form.

Although the ants appeared intimidating compared to normal ants, their bodies were still fragile. Thirteen's body, as hard as iron when using the [Roll with it] skill, carved a hole through the giant beasts, making him a frightening foe and the ants' worst enemy.

The ants were starting to hesitate to engage with the little cute panda because of his extremely savage style of fighting. However, under the command of the crimson Scourge Queen, they had no choice but to fight, even though they were on the losing end.

"Skills! I need to copy more skills. If only I could bestow more skills to my pets, this battle would be much easier," Nox complained as he danced through the ants' mandibles and limbs. They stared at him with bloodshot eyes while his dagger emitted a 'shing' sound, dealing damage after damage to the poor creatures.

The human was like an assassin, too quick and unpredictable!

Because each level-up required risking his life, Nox disliked wasting his Mimicry spot on useless skills. It was the reason he had only copied two Skills, [Shadow Oblivion] and [Oceanic Torrent], which he bestowed to Thirteen, but he knew he had to discard this mentality.

After all, with his talents, even a weak skill could become powerful enough to tip the scale in any battle!

"Let's see which skill you got!" Nox sneered in his mind as he strained his muscles and hurled the dagger. With lightning speed, the dagger shot out of his hands and stabbed the first creature in its deadly trajectory.

However, it didn't just stop there and burst out of that creature, then to another and another and another. When it was about to burst through the next ant, a hand held the dagger, bringing it to a complete halt.

It was the Ant Scourge Queen. Her yellow eyes glowed with anger and admiration as she stared at the black-haired boy with deep, menacing eyes, far darker than anything she'd seen.

She had been busy back in the ant colony in the cave northward of this dimension when she received a cry for help from one of her brethren. Because it was the nature of the ants to always work together and help each other, she had rushed over with an army.

But now, seeing her army fall one after another, she started to regret her decision. Trying to save one ant had cost them dozens.

A part of the ant queen wanted to retreat, but she wanted to hurt the one who was most responsible for this. Thinking to this point, the Ant Queen finally made her move!

With overwhelming murderous intent, she tried to shatter the dagger that had killed so many of her kind, but it suddenly disappeared. She looked around and saw it in Nox's grasp.

"That's not a smart move, Ant Queen," Nox taunted as he twirled the dagger in his hand. When she tried to crush it, he placed it in his inventory and retrieved it again. He didn't need to touch it; all he had to do was think about it.

Over the past month, Nox meticulously practiced with the dagger and could now freely manipulate it however he wanted.

Nox wasn't sure if his ears were playing tricks on him, but he heard the Ant Queen harrumph as she raised her hand and a red spear appeared in her grasp. She started spinning it with such force that a powerful wind current began to revolve around her.

A moment later, the Scourge Ant Queen exploded forward, leaving a crater at the previous spot she stood.

'Such power!' Nox thought as he summoned his shield in one hand and the dagger in another. "This power, I must have it! Initially, I wanted to kill you to farm experience points, but I've changed my mind… I'll make you my pet!" Nox declared, his eyes glowing.
