Aldrich held up the markings in his hand and rembered the first ti he had scanned these with his Divine Sense.
He had found out that these Markings weren't tattoos but a different layer of skin embedded on Cu Chulainn's body. But both skins had rged so naturally that it was impossible to take one out, leaving behind the other. Aldrich had no way other than to remove the Boss's skin from its body surgically. As the Crawler crumbled after its death, the Boss's skin under the mystical Markings also vanished. It left behind the pure unknown markings having a blue glow. With things settled down, Aldrich finally got ti to focus on the notifications.

Aldrich had obtained 60 Attribute Points and 17 Skill Points during this Boss's fight. Preferring his Class-specific Skill he assigned most of his Skill points in that. He distributed most of the Unassigned Attribute Points evenly but left the Correspondence alone for the mont. For obvious reason, one Attribute of his was dood to lag to assure the usage of the Oldest Change Item. He brought up his Stats for a quick look.

Aldrich nodded and approached the hovering rewards. The blue-green Mana core was the biggest he had seen so far. But Aldrich was profusely let down by seeing only one black ball hovering beside it. It ant either he would get one Item or one Skill. One would have expected at least two of such rewards from the Boss of this caliber. Aldrich touched the ball, and the System transferred its data to him.

He had seen the Skill Summon quite a few tis by now. He could only guess the reason for Cu Chulainn's not using this Skill was that it was not a party that had raided the Boss but an individual. Another reason could be that the Boss didn't get a chance. But Aldrich would hardly say no to any Skill, moreover a Skill from the Boss.
"Yes."
The ball crumbled, and a portal opened up in the deserted land. It was twice the size of the portal that had opened up for Aldrich. A rhythmic sound ca out of the portal and the earth under Aldrich's feet transferred the vibration to his body. With every little incrent in the vibration's intensity, Aldrich's face distorted more and more. And the reason for this distortion ca out of the portal with a leap.
NEIGHHH!!!
It was a horse, so beautiful that none could take their eyes off of it. And yet, so powerful that none could stay standing without feeling the dread of doom. The gray horse huffed and slowly approached Aldrich like the majestic creature it was. Every tap of its hooves on the earth could have shuddered the hearts of its enemies. Aldrich neither feared its strength nor its blood red eyes. But he knew that he would have to pay a devastating price to earn its loyalty. For it was not just a legendary creature but a King.
King of Horses - Liath Macha.

Summoned Creature - Liath Macha
Rank: Rare

1. All Stats 10
2. If the summoner dies in battle, Liath Macha would inherit the Drear's Stats for 3 minutes
Skill: Mark of Sovereignty

Warning: The Stat's enhancent would only work while riding the horse
]
The creature's description had perplexed Aldrich. He was thinking of different scenarios when he got another notification.
[
Liath Macha demands you to prove your worthiness
]
"Fuck!"
Aldrich couldn't help but curse out loud. He knew he couldn't prove his worthiness by slamming the horse into the Cliff. There was only one way to ta a horse, no matter if the horse was a King or a beggar. He would have to ride it without falling off its back. And this was the reason for the ugly expression on his face.
Aldrich didn't know how to ride a horse.
He might know things that none knew in this world, but so things still needed an on-hand experience to learn. Like riding a horse or driving a car. Aldrich knew the basic rules and stuff to handle a horse. But to apply this knowledge, especially when the horse claid to be a King, would be an exhilarating process. Aldrich sighed and took a step towards the towering creature.

"Huff! Huff!... "
The sounds of harsh and broken breathing resounded around Aldrich. He was floored on the pile of rocks with his arms and legs spread out. The sound of tick-tack ca from behind him. Liath Macha was leisurely walking around him in circles. It had taken him 3 days to ta the legendary creature. But considering that even Cu Chulainn had needed an entire day, it seed justifiable. He canceled the Summon Skill, and the horse vanished with a grunting noise of reluctance.
Aldrich looked at the darkening sky and analyzed his fights so far. There was one thing that had troubled him since the start, and it has beco an even bigger problem after creating Shadow Homunculus. This thing was Proficiency Skills. He had obtained a Heavy Sword, a Rare weapon. But because of the lack of Heavy Sword's proficiency, he wouldn't be able to use it. He had to coerce the Shadow Homunculus with an extra al to act on its own. But Items didn't grow on trees. In the end, Aldrich decided to deal with this problem once and for all. He was so tired he didn't even get up and commanded with his sweaty back still stuck to the earth.
