Beast Hack: Customizing Beasts and Capturing Beauties

Liora set down her massive roast Grizzhog.

She looked at Fiona.

"Why are you here?"

Fiona took a breath.

"I'm thinking of joining you when you hunt."

"To film it. For my stream."

Liora's gaze sharpened.

She leaned back slightly in her chair, studying Fiona more closely.

"You want to join me… for streaming?"

Fiona nodded confidently.

"It would be amazing content."

"Seeing how Luxoria Castle's hunter works in the field?"

"It'll blow up online."

Liora narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Are you sure about that?"

She leaned forward just a bit.

"I don't hunt basic beasts."

"I go after SS-Rank Sovereign types."

"Things that kill cities if you blink wrong."

"So if you tag along, you'll see blood."

"Real blood. Not the type you edit in post."

Fiona held her ground.

"That's fine. I knew it wouldn't be safe."

She smirked slightly.

"But it's exactly the kind of thing my viewers have never seen before."

"So yeah—I'm in."

There was a brief silence.

Then Liora smirked too.

"You've got guts."

She picked up a bone and cracked it in half with her fingers.

Then pointed it slightly toward Fiona.

"Sure. You can join me."

"Meet me at the eastern gate tomorrow. Before dawn."

"If you're late, I leave you behind."

Fiona grinned wide.

"Deal. Thanks, Lady Liora."

Liora gave a single nod.

Fiona turned toward the drone, her smile full of adrenaline.

"Alright chat. You heard her."

"Tomorrow… we hunt."

She gave a short exhale, then added more quietly.

"I'm not gonna lie though… I'm still kinda nervous."

She glanced off-screen.

"It's Liora."

"She eats Sovereign beasts for breakfast.

"And I mean that literally."

Fiona paused a beat, then perked up.

"But hey, I've got my Vornis coming, right?"

She turned to the wall and called Liline.

"Miss Liline, is my Vornis ready yet?"

Liline smiled calmly and nodded.

"I will inform Lord L right away."

"He was preparing something specific for you."

"If you wish, I can ask if you can receive a temporary basic version first."

"Just for tomorrow's hunt."

Fiona nodded quickly.

"Yes, please. I don't need anything crazy for now."

"Just something that won't abandon me when a beast twice my size tries to flatten me."

Liline chuckled softly.

"Understood."

She gestured gently toward the restaurant around them.

"In the meantime, Lady Fiona, you're welcome to continue streaming here."

"There are many rare dishes available."

"Caught directly by Lady Liora during past hunts."

Fiona's eyes lit up.

"Wait. This entire kitchen is filled with Liora-caught beasts?"

Liline nodded again.

"Grizzhog, Bovarex, Blazebark… and a few rare dishes not available anywhere else."

Fiona turned back to the drone, grinning wide.

"Alright, chat. Change of plans."

"You wanted action."

"But for now, we're doing a Luxoria mukbang."

"Everything on this menu was caught by one of the deadliest tamers alive."

Fiona rubbed her hands together.

She already waved for one of the spectral maids.

"Let's taste what they cooked for us."

"And tomorrow… we test if it can protect me, too."

Inside Lucius's private chamber, screens flickered across the wall.

Lucius sat cross-legged on a levitating disk.

He calmly drank something that looked expensive and bitter.

Across from him, Loreia stood with her arms crossed.

Just as she was speaking.

Liline appeared silently through the wall, giving a small bow.

She did not interrupt.

Just waited quietly at the side.

"Lucius," Loreia said, frowning,

"Just what are you doing?"

Lucius glanced up from his screen, sipping again.

"Talking to my favorite sister, clearly."

Loreia didn't smile.

"I mean Fiona. The streamer."

"You accepted her just like that?"

Lucius shrugged."Because Luna recommended her."

"And you know how precise Luna is."

"Fiona's talented. Knows how to control a crowd."

"That kind of visibility helps us."

Loreia stepped forward.

"I know. I get that she's good."

"But you're forgetting something."

Lucius raised an eyebrow.

Loreia's voice dropped slightly.

"There are things here she can't be allowed to know."

"Your system, Lucius."

"If she finds out about the Beast Hacker—"

Lucius waved it off.

"Relax, sis. I'm not that careless."

"That's why I'm working to make sure she's… comfortable here."

"Eventually, she won't want to leave. Can't leave."

Loreia narrowed her eyes.

"If she's going to stay, then she needs to be bound."

"Like me. Like Liora. Like Luna."

Lucius gave a slight sigh.

"We'll see. Let her prove herself."

Loreia wasn't finished.

"But before that—"

"You're coming with me. To the training chamber."

Lucius blinked.

"Now?"

Loreia's eyes glinted.

"Yes. No hacks. No systems."

"Just your body. Your muscles. Your speed."

"You've been floating too long."

Lucius scowled slightly.

"You know I don't like sweating."

Loreia smiled darkly.

"Then don't make it look so easy next time you bring someone into our home."

Liline, from the side, finally spoke.

"Shall I prepare the training hall, Lady Loreia?"

Loreia nodded.

"Yes. Full resistance mode. He's going in raw."

Lucius groaned.

"I shouldn't have called for Fiona…"

---

Liline quickly prepared a massive training chamber.

Panels folded open. Heavy gravity emitters powered up.

"Training chamber fully calibrated."

"Sovereign-tier beast protocols engaged."

In the center of the room, Lucius stood alone.

He wore a light-flex combat shirt and tactical pants.

Up in the observation deck, Loreia leaned forward, grinning slightly.

"Now then."

"Since my little brother already has stats like a Sovereign-tier beast…"

"…let's see if his body can keep up."

Lucius frowned, already stretching his shoulders.

"Really? You're running beast-level intensity on me?"

Loreia smirked.

"Of course."

"I'd be a terrible sister if I didn't challenge you properly."

"Ready?"

Lucius exhaled slowly.

"…Just get it over with."

Loreia smiled and pressed the activation command.

"Start round one."
