Era of Pet Beasts: Picking Up a Dark Demon Dragon Egg Right off the Bat - Chapter 21

Chapter 21: System Notification, Tier 9 Darkin Flower!

“It was our fault for not stopping our companions earlier…”

Brenda spoke tactfully.

Of course, if Matthew wasn’t a Dragon Knight, their attitude wouldn’t be that good either.

In her anxiousness, Edith felt that her sister had not spoken clearly enough and added, “I’m sorry. I was too selfish before and did not consider my companions…”

But her words were cut short by Matthew. “No need to apologize.”

He explained indifferently, “I need the Shadow Dragon Lotus. Even if you didn’t promise me, I would still snatch it. Your promise only gave me a good reason.”

Edith and Brenda didn’t know what to say.

They felt that Matthew was not keen on making friends.

“See you next time.”

Heber ducked its head as Matthew left the sentence. He rolled onto its back.

“Let’s go.”

Matthew didn’t give Brenda or Edith another chance to speak.

He had already obtained what he wanted, so there was no need to stay here any longer.

Hu!

As soon as Matthew was in position, Heber flapped its huge wings and flew into the vast sky.

A hurricane followed, and Brenda and Edith almost lost their balance.

When the hurricane cleared, the sisters could finally stabilize themselves.

“Sister, what should we do?”

Edith looked miserable.

Matthew actually left just like that.

She had spent so much effort to befriend a Dragon Knight that she had even offended Mack and the others.

In the end, Matthew just walked away heartlessly.

Not only did they lose a Tier 4 Shadow Dragon Lotus, they also lost their strong ally, the Harold family.

Brenda sighed, her delicate face haggard.

A moment later, she glanced at the sky before speaking to Edith. “Matthew hasn’t gone far. Why don’t we follow him?”

Despite Matthew’s callous words, Brenda still felt certain that he would not leave the two girls alone in this dangerous Maar Mountains. After all, they were still at odds with their companions.

The bitterness vanished from Edith’s face, and her eyes blazed with joy.

As long as they caught up, Matthew might not chase them away.

Thus, Edith immediately summoned her beast.

“Alexia!”

Brenda pulled out a card as well.

With a flash of intense light, a butterfly appeared from the void.

But it was different from Alexia.

This butterfly was entirely black, and its wings reflected a faint seven-colored radiance.

“Quintina, let’s go.”

Brenda cried out and leaped onto the butterfly’s back.

The two of them were carried by their beasts as they chased after Matthew.

As for Mack and the other two, because of the Shadow Dragon Lotus, their relationship had already reached an irreversible point.

Even if the two families came forward, their relationship would not be eased.

So Brenda chose Matthew, whom she could befriend.

No matter what, Matthew was a Dragon Knight and could become a very powerful Beast Tamer in the future.

Besides, they felt that Matthew had a powerful backing.

That young man who was on good terms with Matthew was able to cast spatial magic. That was a skill that only a super strong Beast Tamer could possess.

…

Matthew had no idea that the Romeo sisters were coming after him.

At this moment, he no longer wanted to go to the human cities.

After all, Heber had already reached C-rank.

Matthew naturally didn’t need to go to human cities to purchase the powder of Dark Dragon Stone and Blood Dragon Demon Crystal.

On the other hand, his second encounter with the youth had made him even more eager to find cultivation resources and increase Heber’s strength as soon as possible in order to control his own fate.

The young man gave him a huge sense of danger. He was afraid that if he was one step slower in his cultivation, he would fall into someone else’s control.

After flying for a long time, there was still no notification from the Godly Treasure Hunting System.

This made Matthew anxious.

Generally speaking, the Godly Treasure Hunting System would remind him at least once a day.

It was already close to dusk. If the Godly Treasure Hunting System didn’t notify him soon, the day would be over.

Matthew didn’t want to fail to obtain a single treasure today.

As for the Shadow Dragon Lotus… he found it himself. It could not be attributed to the system.

[Ding! Detected a Tier 9 Darkin Flower 1000 meters ahead!]

Finally, just as the sun was about to set, Matthew received the system notification.

Tier 9 Darkin Flower!!!

Tier 9!!!

Matthew was shocked!

What did Tier 9 represent?

The top resources on the Vartas continent!

There might not even be such a treasure on the entire Vartas continent!

According to Matthew’s understanding, a Tier 9 herb was enough to buy a kingdom!

Matthew had never imagined that there would be such a precious treasure in the Maar Mountains.

But what was Darkin Flower?

Thinking back to the system notification, Matthew was puzzled again.

He had read many ancient books in Dragon God Village and knew the types and names of many treasures.

However, this was the first time he had heard of the Darkin Flower.

“Forget it. Since it’s a Tier 9 divine Item, it’s naturally a rare treasure.”

Matthew cast aside his thoughts.

“Heber, prepare to land.”

Heber howled obediently.

Then, it flapped its wings and slowly descended.

“Matthew!”

At this moment, a shout came from behind Matthew.

Matthew looked back and saw two white and black butterflies.

They were rapidly approaching him.

“Brenda? Edith?”

He recognized the voice.

“Why did they chase me?”

Matthew was puzzled by this.

Whoosh

While Matthew was still confused, Heber landed on the ground.

Due to Heber’s extreme restraint, the landing did not cause much of a commotion.

After landing, Heber returned to the size of a palm.

Meanwhile, Matthew remained where he was, fretting over whether or not to wait for the two girls.

“Why are they following me?”

After worrying for a while, Matthew made a decision.

“I will chase them away.”

He was going to search for treasures in the Maar Mountains. What was the point of bringing two burdens with him?

If Brenda said that they would split the treasures equally, how could Matthew agree?

“Matthew.”

Finally Brenda and Edith caught up with Matthew.

After they landed, they walked gracefully to Matthew.

“Is there anything else?”

Matthew said coldly.

Brenda and Edith had figured out what to do when they arrived.

Brenda took a step forward. “I couldn’t quite express what we were trying to say just then. In fact, we wanted to travel with you.”

“I don’t need companions.” Matthew turned away from the sisters, his voice still cold.

Edith came across Matthew at the signal from her sister.

She looked at Matthew with bright eyes. “We know you’re strong and you don’t need our help, but we’ll raise our strength to help you as soon as possible.”
