The Tamers rushed with all their might to move towards where the battle would occur. Xandra had plotted that the wolf pack might choose not to engage if they brought in all their forces. So it was necessary that a weak team would be sent so that the Alpha wolves would attack.
Proving the existence of the Alpha King made things even easier. Instead of drawing the individual groups one at a time, Flay now only had to enrage the king of the wolves.
Flay had once again boarded Stryder. However, after Stryder jumped over the Wolf Pack, he slowed his speed and allowed the sliding Flay to meet up with him.
The Alpha King charged in anger and pushed through the Might Wolves that had disappointed him.
FLASH!
But suddenly, several wolves ignited as they had the same clump of plant essence that Flay had cultivated.
The Pack of the Might Wolves had gathered. The Tamers were watching from the side. But now, they glanced in awe at the arrangement. Xandra had planned it all well. First, she navigated through the critical emotions that the tamers had. She made the relatives of these traitors see the power that they had kept for themselves. Xandra then made the group go on a blind mission which not only made the Tamers see the capacity of Flay, but they also experienced what it was to truth their allies. Xandra had not left them to be baited to die. They were used to draw the Alpha King out. The Harass, the Mammoth, and the Claw hid in their respective places. Flay fought and distorted the scents of the Alpha and the Alpha King, and they could not sense the approach of the other beast.
“One level up?” Erebus was confused. Just like the ranks of humans, monster ranks were also divided into ten levels for each Lettered Rank. But for monsters at the E Ranks, a single level up was several times much more expensive compared to humans.At that moment, Glum and Petra had ugly expressions.“Flay! Stop!” The two shouted together.“It’s alright. Let me explain it later.” Xandra suddenly spoke.She smiled at the two to ease their worries.Flay then realized that he had just spoken of something that drew the attention of numerous tamers nearby.“Crap! I got too excited!” Flay cursed.
The powers of Neptune began to appear as it devoured the power of the Water Core. A strange link suddenly occurred between Flay and Kairo. They saw the scenes before them change as they were suddenly pulled up into the great heavens and found themselves in a world of a vast sea. Flay and the Water Slime of Kairo floated over the waters of this blue world. “Where am I?” Flay asked. “Lord Neptune!” Kairo shouted as he saw a familiar figure floating over the waters ahead. A man of ancient form and had an aura of calmness could be seen in the distance. He had a dark blue coat that moved like the sea. His eyes were like blue jewels that sparkled, and his hair was bright white like the sun. “The Sea that once was calm shall see its storm. And the waves shall roar once more. The power of Neptune that was once contained shall break forth and flood the worlds!” The man suddenly declared. Suddenly, a massive symbol at the skies with an ancient word appeared over the heavens. But suddenl
A few days ago, after Flay had won the Water Core…“Flay, you plan to absorb such powers now? Will it create no magical influx or reaction?” Xandra immediately asked after the battle.“Kairo?”“I don’t know. I think it would create a ripple of magic.”“Then, don’t do it yet. We have to hide your ability from the rest. Flay, Listen to my plan…” Xandra began to talk to Flay about what they would do when they moved out.As they did that, the experts of the Harass gathered before their queen.“How was it? How was the energy he gave from the monster cores?&rdq
Merick Voltz had a very agonizing few nights.Many times he wanted to go outside and start bashing people who he strongly believed to be part of the traitorous camp. He knew that many among the Ylval, the Montayo, and the Legaya clan were traitors. But there were other family members that he was slowly suspecting to be traitors. One of which was a Voltz!Merick moved outside and observed the camp. The Voltz were the strongest in the field. They had a physical structure so strong that they generally could release strength and attacks that were higher than their own. Xandra’s miraculous two-level increase was very rare and had not appeared in a century. But most Voltz could scale one level easily.And so, the Voltz are generally the defenders of the village. Every hunt, the tamers would go out to hunt. But the Voltz would stay at
Elrik had a team of worhsipers. There was no other way to put their loyalty to Elrik. However, even though Elrik’s light blinded them, only two of them were actually part of the traitorous team. The reason many favored Elrik was because of his tamed monster. The Cavern Komodo was a strong, F-Ranked beast, and it was a carnivorous predator! In terms of strength, it could even defeat the velociraptor breeds that some of the traitors have caught! Elrik promised his fanatics that he would also help them tame carnivorous types of beasts and even declared that his goal was a Battle Steed! While declaring to tame another beast on top of what he currently has was deemed a foolish dream, Elrik was confident that he could do this. H
The numerous traitors began to shout with all their might. “He killed a tamer! He killed a tamer!” “Murderer!” “How dare you!” Numerous cries were heard, and many of the other Tamers did not see what had fully happened as they were paying attention to Xandra. But when they looked back, they saw the heavily wounded and critical Tamer lying on the floor. Many of the bullies afraid of Flay all followed the mob and cried foul. Flay stood there in surprise. He defended himself as the traitor,
The order stunned everyone, and many of the traitors were secretly rejoicing.The biggest thing that most of the traitors in the camp wanted to know was what their allies needed. They were kept in the dark, and Xandra’s storytelling has not yet revealed anything that gave them direction except for the cave and even sought to discredit the activities of Flay.Xandra and Merick could tell that the aim of the traitors in making that accusation was to make it that Flay was a traitor! How else could he have known of that cave?They also tried to question his strength so to imply that Flay had other help and tried to spin suspicion on who the real traitors were.But their actions were not helping. Flay had deflected all accusations and proved that his might was several times stronger than many.Those who joined the Hunt were trying
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. The staff tha
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
