"Ryan you're up," Joris said with a smile and nodded his head towards the Kobolds.

Ryan takes his dagger in hand and looks at the Kobolds with a frown.

"Okay, let's do this!" He said with a determined look.

He charged at the Kobolds and sliced one in half with a single swipe of his blade like it was butter. 'I have gotten stronger!?' Ryan thought. It felt surreal being that fast and strong.

Then he proceeded to cut off the heads of all ten Kobolds with ease.

'Damn! It's getting easier.' Ryan thought to himself while being impressed by his new strength. A moment later he started feeling the mana of the Kobolds beginning to enter his body, the strange warm tingling feeling spreading all over him. His eyes glowed a bright azure blue as his skin darkened to a tanner tone and his brown hair lightened to platinum silver that grew just above his shoulders. But Ryan didn't notice any of those changes happening to him because he was trying to control his amped-up sexual lust. He was disgusted with himself for how turned on he was.

"Just breathe Ryan, just breathe." He whispered to himself while still trying to calm down his raging libido. Joris came over and made a big show of inspecting Ryan. Which startled him once he realized Joris was next to him.

"Well boy, you're looking pretty good," Joris said with a wink. "But you've got some work to do. Come with me to your true challenge. It's in the next chamber."

Ryan steeled his resolve and reeled in his libido for whatever this next creature was.

'The mana that I'm absorbing must be fucking with my body?' While Ryan was disoriented from all the mana he absorbed. He would have wanted to examine what happened to his body but Joris wasn't giving him time to organize his thoughts and priorities as he brought Ryan to his true objective.

Once they reached the next chamber Ryan saw that it had a cage with three giant lizards. They looked like four-legged prehistoric dinosaurs that were as tall as an elephant and they had some weird metal device over their eyes.

"What are they?" Ryan asked with a higher octave voice.

Joris then turned to him and said. "They're Basilisks."

"Basilisks!?" Ryan screamed. "Are you fucking kidding me!? So if their blindfold falls off they'll turn us to stone!?" he demanded.

Joris laughed and said. "Hah! Yes, they can do that. We were lucky that our hunters were able to capture these three for you and Hiro. Basilisks are loaded with large quantities of mana and since Hiro is still taking his time with his Kobolds, your reward is getting to take the first two Basilisks. Leave the last one for Hiro."

After Joris told Ryan his orders. He went on to add, "I will say the toughest thing about capturing Basilisk is getting the blindfolds on them after chaining them up. We are fortunate to have caught three of them. Too bad the muzzles didn't hold."

"Why's that?"

"Their saliva is acidic. They were able to burn through their muzzles" Joris said bluntly. "You'll be fine! Just aim for their jugular and they'll go down without breaking a sweat."

"You make it sound so easy, Joris," Ryan says sarcastically.

"Just watch their mouths, Ryan," Joris says with an annoyed look on his face. "Get in there and finish your trial!" As he glared at Ryan as if he was losing his patience with him.

Ryan could no longer delay as he didn't want to get on Joris's bad side. So he walked towards the cage where the basilisk was with a dagger in hand. Ready to make his move.
