"I had to make my tame defeat a beast 3 levels above its current level. I also had to survive a night in the woods on my own—any help and it would not complete… It's always a tricky one, the breakthroughs." Lucien spoke while looking distant, there was nostalgia on his face.
"3 levels above… living alone in the forest…" Theo muttered and thought about it.
No matter how he looked at it, three levels above meant that the creature he had to defeat was level 8 while his brother's was at a bottleneck of level 5.
"Were there any loopholes for it, elder brother? Something like if others helped you, it would still be considered completed for the 3-level-above one." Theo asked after he realized it.
Lucien chuckled but shook his head, "No, it specified it had to be me and the beast only, nothing else."
Theo was perplexed. He thought about defeating a level 6 beast at level 3, and it didn't make sense—the power difference seemed bigger.
