Xandra's shocking statement caused the Pegasus to feel a strange ray of hope.
Dara proudly bore Xandra and Flay as the group continued to talk.
“I request that you give us a moment to discuss your interesting proposal. We wish to talk to your mount, Dara. We can see that she proudly carries both of you and values you as her ally. But we cannot trust that. Remove your power from her and allow us to talk to her.”
Xandra shook her head.
“I refuse. What you ask is impossible. A portion of Dara’s soul is within my Taming Jewel. Through this, we can communicate as our souls are speaking the very thoughts to each other. I can honestly say that while I am her master and that her soul is bound to me, her choice and pride to do that is her own.”
“That I can certain for sure. You are not the only one with s
During Flay’s free moments, Kairo had once explained the qualities of the Elemental Cores. Elemental Cores were magical elemental powers that had ‘life’ of their own. They could naturally harness the energy and create forms of elemental energies on their own. Because of this miraculous state, Elemental Cores become one of the most necessary things for those who desire to grow stronger in power. And Elemental Cores were not only used by mages of all sorts. They are even used by warriors, knights, and other Brute practitioners. Even though Brute Power practitioners need to increase their Brute Power, those that control the elements are a class higher. Their attacks, defense, speed, and life force are generally stronger than those who do not have Brute Power. If two Brute practitioners of the same level fight, the one with the Elemental Core will easily win. In the Kingdom, Kairo assumed that given its very poor and illiterate state in terms of its knowledge of cultivation, those who a
The Battle Steed was the noblest of monsters in Monster’s Edge. It was also the dream mount of many. The scouting tamers would report of this glorious Steed marching across the planes. They were stronger than the Unicorns, who had majestic magic. However, while it was strong, the Brute power of the Unicorn was actually weak compared to monsters of the same level. The Battle Steed was a member of the Harass, which had amazing Brute Power. The Might Wolves could not even defeat these beasts, and only the Alpha wolves could threaten members of the Steed. Even Night Panthers feared when these stallions neighed. Whenever the Tamers hear the mighty hooves of the Battles Steeds resounding across the Grasslands, they feel safe. These Battle Steeds were also paramount to righteousness as the Scouting Tamers
The Tamers in the Hunt were demoralized from what had happened. They had arrived and could only wait outside of the forest. But as they saw the pitiful and wounded state of the Harass from afar, their morale fell even more.There were deaths among the tamers. Glum and Petra were missing, and now Flay, Xandra, and Elrik were gone.Dirk had arrived back and watched the state of the camp.“What exactly do we do now?” Dirk muttered.“Dirk! We need to have a meeting! We can’t keep up with this plan! Not with Glum and Petra missing! We have to call off the Hunt!” Exul shouted.“Call of the Hunt? Are you insane! That’s even more stupid!” Dirk answered irritably. His treatment of the traitors who would make suggestions to the plans now seemed very annoying to Dirk. However, he knew that the t
The entire Tamers saw how Flay mounted a Battle Steed and had a mixture of emotions.“Brother Flay is so awesome! He did it! At the start of this Hunt, He told me that he would get a Battle Steed, and he actually did it!” A young newbie shouted with amazement.“He lived a rather sad and mistreated life as a dud. Our Renfield family had found his worth and admired him for his great hearing and power. Yet none of the other families believed us and even treated our suggestions and comments with contempt. Only Dirk shared our same reactions. But now, the dud is the first to ride a Battle Steed and the first to have tamed two powerful monsters!” A newbie Renfield added as he watched and had a rare smile on his face.“Indeed. Flay’s deprived and sad life is now full of rewards. The one we called ‘d
Xandra’s words stunned everyone. Only those who have been initiated or met the Warlocks know of this code.Elrik felt a strange chill in his heart as he heard it.Exul and the rest also began to worry. What did it imply that she was a secret part of their group? And why did she have to hide her identity?“You really don’t understand, do you?! I was a necessary part of the team! My mother has long been a part of the Warlocks. She had met the Grand Warlock incidentally when the battle between Body and Soul against the Shamans was still taking place. My mother saved the Grand Warlock, and we have always been a part of their team! And we are not like you, mere members and servants. I am a part of the Warlocks Dark Order!” Xandra revealed many things that Kairo explained to her. She had used this past and twisted i
As Xandra talked with the traitors, Flay began to explain the last part of the plan. Daylo Portersteed was one of the Elite Portersteed Tamers. If not for Dirk taming the Great Eagle, he would have been the best. But now, his expression was that of shock. The more Flay revealed things, the more it made sense.Hunter Olvel was the best monster behavioral expert in this Hunt. Olvel’s were naturally born with smaller but fast frames among all the Tamers and were considered the fastest Tamer in terms of bodily movement speed in this Hunt. But, of course, Flay now holds this title. Sling Shax was the most experienced doctor-Tamer in the Hunt and commanded great respect with how he was able to bring many Tamers who were supposed to be doomed to die, to survive, and some were even heale
All of the tamers in the camp were horrified at the revelation of Xandra.She told of the news of the murders the Harass had witnessed. As she spoke, the Harass had stood over and watched with great caution, and even the Battle Steeds were nearby. They placed their suspicions on the traitors, and many would glare and give intimidating neighs that caused the traitors and their beasts to tremble.Xandra revealed more and more of what the Harass said and continued to inquire among Dirk about the accusations.Hunter Olvel, Sling Shax, Freed Maidenster, and Daylo Portersteed laid out numerous accusations among the members. Only Kyle kept silent and observed the team. He had lost no one that made him angry with the traitors, but at the same time, he had no relatives to make him empatheti
Directly to the north of where the Harass lived was another herd of creatures.These creatures were the most numerous of the herds residing in the Grasslands. Originally, they would be found all over the Grasslands. But during the last hunt, these monsters have stopped wandering about and were all huddled together in one place.This was because the Grasslands were no longer safe.The green birds were small and fat. It had a form similar to the chicken genus but were chickens that were born with numerous thorns all over its body. Because of this, it was generally hard for predators to take a bite at these chickens, for the thorns would be in the way, and it released a strange stinging pain that would remain for a long time.These creature
