Fein moved closer in her direction and offered his hands to her. "I didn't mean for that to happen."

Aira inhaled deeply for a few seconds before finally managed to calm herself. 'I better do anything he says or I might die here,' She thought silently.

In the degu society, those who have the strong fist always win. If a stronger degu user decided to kill people with lower strength and lower status than them, others won't even dare to open their mouths. Strong had always ruled the rest, and this was the iron law. Aira wasn't even at him, she even felt fortunate that he didn't kill her. If so, even the owner won't say anything, as offending an A-rank peak degu user for her isn't worth it.

In the past, there are a lot of instances of B-rank killing D-rank degu users for their slightest provocation. Of course, some of the targets happened to have a powerful backer which avenge them. Nonetheless, one can see how ruthless the degu community is and how they only respect strength. Fein is already the kinder type, in her opinion. After all, with his strength, he does whatever the hell he wants as long as he doesn't provoke powerful organizations and S-rank degu users. The degu society had already listed A-rank peak degu users in a 'Don't provoke' list because they have a higher chance of ascending to S rank! What is an S-rank? They are the ranks that could be considered a 'God' in the degu society. Usually, they would create a force of their own, and people would flock to them. Others would even kill just to join their organization. One could only imagine how prestigious S-rankers are...

Aira reflected a professional smile on her face and took his hands. Fein smiled and pulled her up gently.

*Thud!*

The door behind them suddenly opened with a loud bang. A red-haired man entered. A red robe donned his upper body with a golden star pattern on his chest. He walked rhythmically.

He scanned the room before his eyes landed on Fein. A smile appeared on the man's face.

"The owner," Aira bowed at the man respectfully.

'His the owner of this shop?' Fein stared at the man. He could feel a powerful presence emanate from him.

'He's not here to hold me accountable, right?' Fein sighed at his blunder. 'I hope not,'

Fein stared back at the man. The man has a sharp eyebrow, dark brown eyes, and short hair. Fein gasped as the man look like his uncle on earth.

'Fuck!'

The man trudged closer to Fein until he was only one step away and says, "Forgive my employee for his rudeness."

Fein looked at the man with surprise. "No, it's my fault for scaring her." He opened his mouth.

The man chuckled lightly and look at Aira for a second. Aira gulped. She felt nervous with the man's stare. Fortunately, he turned his gaze back to Fein.

"I'm Roger, also known as 'Captain Red'. You can address me whichever you prefer on those two." The man introduced himself with a smile. He crossed his hands on his chest, "I didn't expect a distinguished person with your strength would grace my shop today."

"It just happened, I guess," Fein smiled and offered Roger a handshake. "I'm Fein Bonifacio. As for Alias, I guess you say that I'm the Legendary Beast Tamer." He felt awkward as he introduced his edgy title.

Roger shakes Fein's hand and put his hand on his chin thoughtfully. 'Hmm... Why does it sound familiar?'

"Well, your title sounds familiar. I don't know when it was, but I'm sure I've heard your title once before."

"It circulated a few months before as a rumor in the degu society, so it's not strange if you heard it." Fein sighed.

Fein used his 'probe' for Roger. It's rare for him to meet a powerful person. Although with the aura on the guy's body, he could already estimate it at his level. But his probe ability gives him detailed information.

Name: Roger Geryei

Race: Human

Age: 45 years old

Degu Amount: A

Str: A+

Agi: A

End: A

Abilities: Dark Steel Physique, Ultra Perception, Cloud Flame Transformation, Enhanced Strength, Fist of the Flame Dragon, Cloud Flame Transformation II.

'Interesting.' Fein looked at the other party's list of abilities with interest. 'He has a transformation ability...'

There are only a few abilities that could pique his interest. First, domain ability. There's much no say about it. He's had been envious for a long time of Voli and Sofia's domain. The second is transformation ability. They also belong to a rare category, and each transformation ability could boost the user's comprehensive strength, and lastly, the Causal abilities that could affect the laws of the world. They are even rarer than domain ability.

'I wonder what the effect of his Cloud Flame Transformation was?' Fein felt hot in his heart. 'Should I fight him?' Fein felt conflicted inside.

He's in a dilemma, but it would be rude to cause trouble in the guy's shop. 'Or should I just challenge him?'

'No, I'm just here to buy my clothes.' After careful consideration, He decided to restrain his battle intent.

'I wonder when would my probing ability evolve? It's troublesome that I have to see the ability first to view their information. I hope in the next upgrade I could see them with just a click, just like in the gamer's novel, without having to force them to use it.'

"Is there a problem?" Roger asked because Fein suddenly became silent.

"Oh..." Fein came out of his trance, "No, I just thought of something."

'Fuck my habit.'

After he saw interesting abilities, he subconsciously entered his contemplation state again. But who could blame him, though? It's rare to see abilities with good names on his interface. Just the first one called 'Dark Steel Physique' already sounds like a cool ability. He could guess just from its name that it could probably increase the defense of the user by hardening his skin or muscles like steel.

As for the second one, 'Ultra Perception', he guessed that it's an ability that puts the user into a state similar to 'Ultra Instinct' or his 'Chess Perception'.
