The auction continued as Flay listened to the discussions and the offer.

Most of the items the Blazer family presented did not interest the elite groups, and only when a pill was sold would they all clamor with great interest.

The third pill that was presented was a pill that caused all of the magic practitioners to bid just as much as the brute practitioners did.

But as most of the elites were sponsoring or hiring Brute Practitioners as they were cheaper than hiring magic practitioners, the price of the third pill only reached 1012 gold, 103 silver, and 1822 copper coins on the selling of the first of this pill. It was sold for 1112 gold, 123 silver, and 1940 copper coins when the second pill was sold.

The winner was none other than Ahasuerus himself! And the person he had to outbid was Ashpenaz himself!

“If I knew such a pill would have been sold here, I would have brought my entire money and buy not just the Water Core but have the wealth to afford these pills!” Ashpenaz cursed.

    The water core was placed before everyone, and many of the elites glanced at the richest ones who spent an amazing amount of money on buying the pills that appeared. The numbers that everyone spent from the richest Counts and other elites meant more chances for certain mages to buy the Water Core!"Are you ready!""Yes! We have readied a thousand gold to aid in the purchase." The Baron group reported. "I have a thousand gold and several thousands of silver." A Viscount gave his accounting."We have over seven thousand worth of gold then..." The Count assessed.The mage nearby smiled. He was one of the rising mages who was already a High Adept!Some of the rising mages even allied with a team of Viscounts and offered them support if the Water Core fell to their hands. Everyone wanted to be the team that would be there to fund an Expert as he rises! A water core would greatly increase the chance of a mage reaching the Expert stage. In fact, for most Adepts, it was an assurance of becom

    The mana of Ahasuerus had caused the power of the Water Slime Kairo now had enough energy to cast several spells.Ahasuerus was pouring in mana that could be used to increase the charges and spells that they could cast.The orb glowed, and Ahasuerus felt energy moving back.He then turned and saw a Magic Measuring Stone being brought out by the Blazer family and aimed with his staff. The mana he sent in was being channeled back out as water magic and this water magic coursed through Ahasuerus, and he poured it towards his staff which began to glow.BLAST!A beam of blue energy shot out and struck the stone. The attack became water, and the stage was wet.The magic Magic Measuring Stone began to glow with colors, and it shot from Red to Crimson Red and changed into a rainbow color, and the magic rose and settled at Orange.The number appeared on top as 49.Everyone was amazed.“A magic attack value of 49! That’s equal to a level 2 Apprentice Mages' power! He can already do such damage

    The entire city was in an upheaval.Various eruptions of Brute power and Magic could be seen all over town as the Counts led their teams outside the auction hall to search for the Nokk that had disappeared.The power it released was that of a High F-Ranked monster! It was weak, and everyone had a shot at attacking, capturing, or killing it!Even the lightning attacks it sent out were only at a low Apprentice level, and no one was seriously hurt.The Experts were only caught off guard.Everyone was moving out of the strange place, and Flay and Merick remained on the lower grounds along with the Count, Viscount, and Baron, who were in charge of managing the auction and their people.The Diason family remained by Flay’s side at the departure of everyone.The three Diasons and the two retainers who knew that the Water Core would somehow escape and go back to ‘Hector’ as Flay had revealed had to force themselves to shut up.Even though they knew the plan, they still wore a dumbfounded expr

    Duke Ferann continued to explain to the Tamers what they needed to do.“Turn your land into something that the Kingdom cannot ignore. If you do that, I shall immediately claim your lands under my dukedom. And if it is a fief, and I can earn so many treasures from it, then you will be a part of the Kingdom. That, and possibly only that, is the way to stop all forms of attacks on your tribe.” Ferann explained.“That’s it…! If the Tamers are under the Duke’s command, he has full control over what happens in it! Galantcros has no say in that matter!” Liathel added.“But only if you CAN turn it into a fief. The Duke cannot make decrees since there is little to gain from your lands. You would need to at least earn something that is ten times the amount of the spoils you received from your previous hunt!” Count Redfreed clarified at the side.“If you manage to do that, I shall be the Count who will be in charge of your lands as I am the one who handles the cities on this side.

    The very petty Count Redfreed had given off several strange orders.The enraged Ahasuerus flew with great rage after concluding that the Nokk had vanished and he was the first to turn his sights towards the Baron Blazer auction hall.He charged towards it with great speed and the sight of the Blazer’s men cleaning the entire place.The women were wearing very revealing attire as they were playfully cleaning and throwing soap at each other.Some of the friends became lovers as they were specifically ordered to clean the auction hall in this jolly way. And should trouble come, the Dagger of Service was embedded at the very center of the hall.Ahasuerus was about to commit mass murder in rage. But acting against those who have the Dagger of Service was acting against the Duke himself! Even Ahasuerus had no intention of fighting a Duke!The rage build up as a rather bold man charged towards a woman he had long liked and playfully smeared a handful of foam on her body.The woman was actual

    In the days that followed, numerous chaotic events occurred that snowballed from the events of the auction night.The Viscount family of the diseased Premise had officially waged war with the mercenary group led by the former Viscount.The two families were approved by the many Dukes and Counts to legally be able to kill each other as long as others were not involved.The legal clauses that allow two different parties to have legal reasons to kill and wage war on each other were very rare in the Kingdom. The requirements for the Counts to approve of this were so harsh as it demanded quick presentation of evidence within two days since the murder.The Viscount family used their connections so that the mercenary group was met with an ambush check-up of their belongings.And within their belongings was a poison-coated dagger and the robe of the outfit of the attacker! Even before the check-up, Premise’s Baron allies had already given a detailed description of the clothes and weapons the

    The Tamers were surprised to see the Hero of the Horde.Then, suddenly, Legacy removed his mask.“Hello, Ligz. You look like your old man.”“...You! I recognize you in the family portraits! Uncle Legacy!”“It’s nice to see my nephew recognize me.”“I can’t believe you are alive!”“We can talk while we train. You guys will be facing people much stronger than you. With my current strength, I can show you guys the pressure of facing strong enemies. Your monsters will also be trained in strict training. Flay and Kairo have prepared a good diet for your monsters to grow. For now, I’ll push your limit in combat. Flay… I won’t go easy. Do you dare fight me without an army of slimes?”“You think my power is in my army?”“Yes. Do you dare face me with only your main slimes and not surround me with your magic slimes? You can use your stick and slide only for yourself and whatever singular abilities your slimes have.”“Oh? That sounds fun! But since I’ll be using my Slimes, Tamers, don’t fight w

    The presence of several powerful figures caused the tournament to erupt with even more contestants.Even the Easterforts suddenly sent several Champions to join in. The biggest factor was the appearance of a Water Core that turned into a Nokk!The Nokk had escaped, creating an immense investigation of where the Nokk had disappeared into the city. Another cause was to search for a legendary Alchemist, who many theorized to be a powerful mage who had begun his Blaze of Glory.And so, many hopeful Viscount groups decided to go.Since Flay, the person widely regarded as the disciple of this alchemist, is joining the tournament, many moved to challenge and seek fame to defeat him. Some sought to defeat him to be the new disciple of this youth.Many reclusive families suddenly sent out low Apprentice geniuses who were all regarded to have Expert potential!With more people traveling to the Westerfort region, the tournament was again delayed.It had been half a month since the incident at th

    Flay was even more intrigued.He had just shown the entire Beastmaster tribe his ability, yet they were certain he would die.He had just fought against an Expert, and while others were skeptical of his attempts, it was still a very impressive feat.“I guess I shouldn’t press my luck. Besides, there are more important matters at hand… This place has too many enemies. I have to also regain much of my lost strength and awaken the Eos System.” Flay decided. If this Chimera was something so powerful that everyone was convinced he was still inadequate, he would have to pursue other means to gain strength.“What is this… chimera?” Estelle asked in the midst of the angry accusations of Darwood and Trailtree.“My king… That is the beast that we have sealed long ago. The creature who was once sealed at the death of my great grandfather.” Primeroot finally spoke.“Trovine Primeroot… The greatest Beast Master who achieved the impossible and reached beyond Great Expert…” The King recalled.“Yes.

    Narood and the other experts and high-level adjuncts returned with a rather confident look on themselves.“It seems you finally are agreeing.” Flay smiled.“We will agree. That staff is too much of a prize for us. But... Instead of Tenscream, we will offer you another beast instead. An Expert just like Tenscream. But, you have to tame it. You are confident of taming them, aren’t you?” Narood smiled.“Hmmm... Depends. I’m not saying that I can tame any and all monsters. There are several that will take a lot of effort.” Flay recalled the monsters he faced in his world. Particularly, the Carcadon.“I wonder if they tamed him?” Flay thought to himself.The strange expression and distant gaze of Flay irritated the beastmasters.“Then since we are all agreed...” Narood smiled.“Go and start taming them. Of course, we will set a time limit. You have five minutes! Show us! Show us how one can be the pack leader of the wolves!” Narood taunted.Everyone gave a curious look at Flay.“Here’s a l

    Flay's words caused a great commotion and surprise to all who listened.Zegwood was shocked at Flay's declaration. But as a few seconds passed, the arrogant rookie's implication and demand slowly settled in his head."What?! A mere Rookie demands to take away my Tamed Beast?!""I already took control of it and made it attack you. Why not?" Flay sneered."That...! That was a trick! An evil trick!""So? I have the skill! Has anyone ever controlled your monster apart from yourself?" Flay countered."My monster is linked to my staff! Without the staff, you wouldn't have tamed it!""Did anyone manage to tame your beast using the staff?" Flay asked.There was silence as everyone awkwardly looked at each other.Zegwood was turning blue from holding back his breath and the urge to smack the kid before him."And you were doing a poor job at managing the kennels, I'll tell you that much. The wolves would grow stronger if allowed to roam in the wild. I was only planning to tame a few wolves and

    The three generals revealed their power, which made the beastmasters cower.These were the strongest generals who often guarded the walls!But as Kairo had explained, they were actually weaker!Most of the Experts didn't pay much heed to this. After all, the three could have only revealed whatever portion of their power they were comfortable with.Only those who knew of the poison were delighted at how fast the progress was. A few months ago, no changes could be seen. But now, it was becoming increasingly clear."... It's so rare to see all three of you abandon your post. Especially now that the Beast of Dark Savagery lingers outside our walls." Narood answered.His eyes had an arrogance in him, for he knew, soon, he would surpass these three!"The Beast of Dark Savagery has all been slain. Remember their sudden retreat in the last war? They were being summoned. And they were all killed by the Master of that boy you are trying to kill." Holy Knight Galavus answered with certainty.Eve

    The people who closed the doors were now panicking to open the gates. They were being forced to keep them closed as one of the prominent beast-taming families gave the orders not to let anyone in. But now, with their lives and families on the line, no one dared to keep the gates closed and be charged with treason.Holy Knight Galavus was famous for the incident known as the Path of Red that occurred in the previous wars against the Joverus Kingdom Alliance.It was here that the power of the Kalenshore Kingdom was revealed.For while the rest practiced magic, they combined it with Brute power and revolutionized warfare.At the center of all this was Holy Knight Galavus, who was the strongest and eventually led the other Experts to his path.When a great battle between the kingdoms happened, an ambush forced the King to retreat.Galavus stayed and fought against several Experts and an army.But his defenses were simply too firm, and his Brute, too powerful that all the magics that struck

    Flay continued his casual stroll about the kennels and observed the wolves one at a time.Secretly, Kairo was busy wandering just like a casual slime would and would approach the kennels.But unknown to them, the slime was draining the magic from the kennels as it moved from one place to the other.“Flay!” Darwood shouted as he rushed towards his ally. The rest of the team followed, except Vem.“You are being summoned back.” Darwood spoke.All of them could not look Flay in the eyes after they were all berated for accepting bribes.Flay shrugged and moved with them, but his slimes continued to wander about.No one took any concern of the slimes and walked back.Behind him was the chaos of the ongoing debate.“Where is he?!” An enraged official demanded.“Bring him back here before that troublemaker starts creating more chaos!”“He is here!” Darwood called out.“What’s going on?” Flay asked Darwood.Darwood looked very angry, annoyed at Flay’s casual behavior, and even wandered out.Da

    The crowd was silenced by Flay's suggestion.If the Princess was saved, she could clarify everything being discussed."I'm sure she would settle and fix everything here." Flay also added."If it's the princess…" One of the High Adepts thought."The Princess? Why would we bring her here? Is she even the Princess?" The expert that healed Tenscream asked."What do you mean by... that?" Ephesus frowned."We know that within the kingdom, assassinations and infiltrations have happened. The Dark Priest enlists Mimics who have entered this city. Have you tested her to see if she is a mimic?""If you think mere mimics can stand before us and fool us, then we would not have been her guard! Is not Vallenhall with us?" Ephesus challenged."Indeed. Great Experts. I am High Adept Terence. Lava Mage and Formation Specialist. This was a suspicion we had, and I already used an area magic to see whether or not she was the Princess. After all, Mimics are fearful of the fire. But the Princess shot her ma

    The fight and even the interruption of the Expert happened so fast.Apart from Ephesus, all of the allies of the Princess were watching from the side.The traitor Vem couldn’t believe what he had just witnessed. He hoped the boy would die, but the battle that transpired before him ended with an Expert down on the ground.If he hadn’t seen it, he wouldn’t have believed that a Rookie was able to bringThe strongest members of the Beast Master clan arrived.Surrounding the few Experts were also members of the tribe's elites. The commotion had caused anyone near to scurry over to see what had happened. The strongest high-level Adepts accompanied the few experts.The Expert, who shouted at Flay and summoned a powerful Brute voice, was startled at his fast reaction.One of the Adepts had moved over to the frog, and by injecting Brute, the energy invading the frog’s heart was dispelled.To hide his secret, Flay stopped pressuring the frog by enslaving it with his Pluton powers.

    Chapter 323: Against Two Experts

    Because of Flay’s innate ability to gauge a person's Brute and Magic energy, Flay could quickly tell where he could land a powerful damage. He knew that Ephesus would go to his defense. He commanded the Cerberus to make a bite on the other leg. The Brute energy was divided between the legs and the arm. And because of this, Flay weakened that part of the body. Flay’s pitiful strength of 12 points, added with 20 points of Brute energy, half of his defenses of 17 points, and 10 points worth of magic, totaled 59 points worth of punch. This attack would be equal to a mid-level apprentice's. It shouldn’t leave damage to the defenses of any average expert. But in that specific scenario, the guard of Zegwood and the natural vulnerability of that area was enough. Had his stat point been three points lower, this attack would not have worked, and if the Expert was in any way more guarded, then his natural Brute could easily defend against it. POW! Flay's fist dug deep into the groin as it
