Adira, Elita, Rita, and Radley made their way down the ropes to the ground below. The now large creature came crawling out from the undergrowth. He was hiding in some rather thick foliage. Both Elita and Rita went on the defense. Even Adira was edgy, she was also the first to speak, "This…thing is the fourth member."Radley raised his hands to calm them down, "I asked you guys to keep an open mind. His different form your usual rabble."
"In what way?"
"His biology. Come here, Blobby."
"You named your pet Blobby?"
"Under the circ.u.mstances, it seemed appropriate."
"Oh, this I got to hear."
"When I got him he was nothing more than a ball of black slime or goop, or whatever he was. I fed him some animal I killed and voila. I got myself a…honestly. I don"t exactly know what he is."
Adira studying Blobby for a bit, "It transformed into this?"
"Sort of. It was as large as a puppy and as cute as one, well if your puppy was a lizard looking thing. The spikes came afterward when I gave in another animal. One with lots of spikes, but as I leveled up so did he."
Rita interjected, "It"s a she. Definitely she."
Elita ran with it, "And we should call her…Liara."
"Ooo, I like that. Maybe Bella would work too."
Radley raised his eyebrows, "He! And I do emphasize the he part. Was a slime, or did you forget that? In any case. It grew as I leveled up too."
Adira narrowed her eyebrows, "This makes little sense. What sort of a creature does that? Nothing I have ever heard off. To boot it gets stronger as when you do? There is a town that specializes in studying anomalous creatures not far from here. I suggest going there next…mmm, didn"t you say it grew as you leveled up?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Don"t you think this thing will become as big as a city when you are at level twenty?"
Radley only then realized the gravity of the situation, "Well. I never thought about it like that."
Diff chimed up in his head, "Blobby will only grow as large as the creature he ingested. Meaning he won"t get much larger than that."
Radley calmed down for a bit, "Well, I don"t think it"s going to happen. I think he will only become as large as the largest of the species he ingested."
Adira rubbed her chin, "All the more reason to figure what exactly it is. I am a bit reluctant to bring a creature like this on board, due to its eating habits."
"Oh, don"t worry about that. He"s more like an herbivore. While he can eat meat, it is only to get the DNA information so it can take on its properties. Other than that I tried feeding him meat, but he straight up refuses but he does drink a lot of water and eats the dead plants and leaves."
"The more you tell me about this creature the more confused I become. Alright, I have decided. Your next mission will be to go to the town of Ako."
A popup appeared. Tertiary quest given. Travel to the town of Ako and have Blobby studied.
WHAT! That became a quest. That some serious bulls.h.i.t! Why should he care what Blobby was! He knew what it did and what he"s capable of. What more did he need to know?
Radley"s shoulders dropped, "Fine, I will go visit this…Ako."
She put her hand on his head, "It will be a good learning experience for the two girls, and truth be told we don"t know the side effects of this here creature. You should be careful, for now, we should head back."
Radley gave her an expectant look. Adira raised an eyebrow, "He seems docile enough to me, and he could be useful in a fight. His stature might even scare off the Westside if they tried something."
Rita was hesitant, "We can touch it, right?"
Radley shrugged, "I see no problem with that."
They pet and felt Blobby"s flattened horns, he just made a grunting sound.
They made their way back upstairs with Blobby entail. By the time they got upstairs, they were met with a bunch of apprehensive looks.
Adira immediately understood why she was needed so she proclaimed, "Do not fret people. The beast is harmless and on the side of Eastside!"
There was a bunch of murmuring from the local populace but eventually, people went on their own ways. The children on the underhand were all too curious. Asking all sorts of inane questions. Radley didn"t like the attention all that much.
Adrian was standing outside the B&B when he saw Radley arriving with Blobby, "What the h.e.l.l is that?"
"This is Blobby?"
"You mean that pet of yours? What the h.e.l.l happened…You know what? I don"t care anymore. Since I met you, you were full of surprises. I just give up. I"m done." He threw his hands in the air exasperatedly.

Kai came rushing out and jumped onto Blobby. Blobby looked at her and scoffed. She hugged Blobby, "Ah, he is so cuuuute! I will call her Fluffy."
Radley squinted his eyes, "It"s a him, not her, and the name Fluffy doesn"t even make sense."
She jumped off Blobby and looked underneath, "I don"t see any d.i.c.k!"
Radley"s jaw nearly dropped, "It a Lizard. It on the inside. There is something seriously wrong with you!"
"Na uh, I am perfectly normal. I am just hyper."
Radley scratched the back of his head. That was an understatement.
Adrian rubbed Blobby under the chin, "He could be useful in the upcoming battle."
Radley"s shoulders dropped, "So they decided to do the latter."
"Yip, got an ultimatum not too long ago. Give ultimate authority to the magistrate or suffer. Of course, we listened to your words about taking care of both magistrates. So we tried the peace talk"s route. They declined. So we will face them in battle by tomorrow, at the bridge."
Radley pondered for a second, there was no real territorial advantage there. This will need some proper planning if they wanted to win with as little as possible casualties.
