Beast Hack: Customizing Beasts and Capturing Beauties

Lucius soon woke up in an unfamiliar place. He also felt wet as he looked down to realize that he was lying on the water.

He then began to sit down and realized that his body was not injured like before. It was like he was healed.

He then looked ahead and soon saw a tree that was smaller and also more special because it was glowing. 

The tree was also being surrounded by a huge lake with shallow water and Lucius immediately thought that this lake water was the one who healed him.

Then suddenly, as he stood up, not knowing what to do now, he suddenly heard something but he could not see anything.

"Come here, little child." Lucius looked around and found no one and suddenly he turned to the glowing tree in the middle.

Lucius, who began to walk to the glowing tree, immediately asked it, "Are you the one who is calling me?"

The sound appeared again as it told Lucius, "Yes, I am the glowing tree in the center so please come forward."

Lucius, who was walking toward it, began to ask again, "Just what are you? I never heard about you in the village."

The glowing tree then told Lucius about its identity: "I am actually the real sacred tree that is hidden inside the big tree outside."

Lucius was surprised after hearing it and suddenly became excited. "If you are really the real sacred tree, then you will be able to help me, right?"

The sacred tree then answered, "Of course, my child. It is one of the reasons why you are here. Your heartfelt prayer has awakened me."

Lucius, who heard it, immediately became excited as he kneeled, "Great Sacred Tree! Please grant me your strength!"

The sacred tree then asked him again about his wish: "Why are you wishing for strength, my dear child?"

Lucius then said in anger, "It was because of that damn village. Just because I am an orphan and talentless, I am beaten by the villagers."

Lucius also became more agitated as he continued, "Not only that, after leaving me half dead, they kicked me out of the village and left me for dead. Thankfully, I was saved by you."

After explaining his reason, Lucius then looked at the sacred tree and angrily said, "That is the reason why I want power, so I can get my revenge on them by killing them and destroying the village."

The sacred tree then talked again after hearing Lucius reason, "I see. If that is the case, then I will grant you what you wish, but it comes with a price. Are you willing to pay for it?"

Lucius, who heard it, immediately became serious as he said, "I'll pay anything as long as I have the power to get revenge."

A golden apple suddenly grew on the branch of the sacred tree and soon it told Lucius, "Eat this golden apple and you shall have the power you desire. But beware, there will be a price for eating it."

Lucius immediately became excited the moment he looked at the golden apple. He immediately reached and plucked it from the branch.

He looked at the golden apple and smirked. "Finally, I will get the power that I always wanted for all my life."

He then smirked as he thought about what he could do after this: "Paxton, and the people who had bullied me, just you wait as I will kill you all later."

Without hesitation, Lucius immediately ate the golden apple in one bite and soon immediately felt power in him.

But suddenly, just after he felt power, a pain immediately attacked his body. "What the hell is happening to me?" he shouted as he knelt down.

His body was not injured but the pain came from his entire body. "Please... stop... this..." but the pain just continued until Lucius finally fell down.

And soon after it, the water in the lake began to dry out and also the sacred tree also began to dim slowly as it became a dried tree.

Lucius, who had seemingly died, suddenly began to stand up again and this time an evil smirk appeared on his face: "Finally...finally... I am free."

Lucius then looked at his body and smirked, "Just as expected from the body that I had made years ago."

The truth was that Lucius was actually a body that the sacred tree had made it to use later and because of it, the body was in a blank state.

Because of this blank state, previous Lucius cannot awaken any beast-taming talent, resulting in him being kicked out of the village and coming back here.

Lucius then said, "Lucius, I will not let you die in vain, as I will fulfill your wish, which is to destroy the village and kill everyone in it but before that, I need to do something first."

Lucius then suddenly shouted, "System, I am here." As soon as he shouted it, a screen suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Welcome to the Beast Hacker System]

Lucius smirked as he saw that his system was activated again in his new body. The truth was that Lucius was a transmigrator and he was too arrogant and used his system without a care in the world.

Because of that, many evil people came into him trying to take his own body for that power and one of the evil people managed to transport his soul into a seed.

Fortunately, the system was bound into his soul and the body stealer was angry and wanted to torture Lucius for it but too bad that the seed that housed his soul was already gone as it was sent flying by the war at that time.

For years, Lucius had learned the system and used it to hack the seed that was his body to become a sacred tree and also used it to create a new body for him.

Lucius then looked at the village where Lucius was kicked out and smirked, "Now it is time for me to pay the price for getting your body." Lucius smirked as he went to the village.
