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
A Battle Steed stood proudly and bore Flay, who was on top.Tracy watched as Flay sat on it. He held two swords in his hand, and his confident smile shone out.Her heart couldn’t help but flutter.Many of the other women couldn’t help but swoon over Flay. Not only was he perhaps, the strongest Tamer in all of the village, he now had one of the most dreamy beasts ever.“I'm...possible!” One of the bullies cried in shock.“That’s not…fair! Why him?!” Another shouted.“Alright. If anyone can defeat me in one-on-one combat, I’ll let them have Stryder. But it’s a fight to the death. Anyone?” Flay gave a sinister laugh.The Tamers all began to step back.No one dared to fight Flay, who
The entire village moved out.Merick decided to create opposing search parties for each team, and many others among the elders watched.Those assigned to search would even be checked if they had any in their body so that they could not plant these things in the houses they searched.The first house to be checked was Dirk’s house in the Amarant tribe houses.None were found.But then, a shocking thing occurred as four were found in Hunter’s belongings! And two more were found in his house!But just before the traitors could take advantage of this, seven were found in Rook’s home! Camder had even nine Heart Trees!Merick went along with the plant and suddenly made random searches on other houses, and the results were shocking!A total of fifty-seven Heart Trees were found on various houses in every family in the village.Various tamers were shocked to have found numerous Heart Trees suddenly stashed in secret locations in their homes.Everyone who was affected began to blame the other p
The night had fallen, and the town was so silent that night.People no longer talk with each other, and most families were on their own.The traitors that were beaten and imprisoned had naturally formed a bond and spent more time with each other.Since they were all imprisoned and hidden in that plant prison and were regarded as traitors, it didn’t seem strange that they gathered and huddled up together by nightfall.Although the Shaman had somehow lessened the suspicion on them, the many revealed truths about the murders were never resolved. The accusations against them increased, and many didn’t want to associate with them.On that night, Xandra’s planned meeting took place.There was a secret chamber underground in prison.Flay and Xandra had noticed that many of them would vanish somewhere in the prison halls and realized that there was a secret room.Using his amazing hearing, Flay could top lead Xandra on the right way, and Xandra managed to deduce how to open the secret chamber
The next morning, Merick took a break from the never-ending investigation and glanced at the food, and ordered all heads to stop bickering for a time to go over the gains in the Hunt.The female vultures and they're young were given cages. The male vultures that were captured were allowed to move freely for a time to hunt, but as the mother and the chicks were kept in the cages, the male vultures all hunted and did their best to feed the nursing ones.A deep pit was also being dug, and the Gator Spawns were kept there for breeding and for food. It was also decided that some of the Ylval would tame these beasts to breed them.The Olvel clans were busy analyzing the two new breeds of monsters, and many immersed themselves in this work.“All in all, this is perhaps the most successful hunt. And that’s even counting our losses.” Merick spoke.“We lost your father and Glum!” One of the elders frowned.“I believe that they are alive! My father is not that weak!” Merick argued.“So you say..
The Kingdom was the collective alliance of several surviving kingdoms when the monster horde arrived.The four kingdoms hid behind an extensive mountain range that stood tall in their continent to protect themselves from the wild regions.They transformed the mountain range into a natural wall that towered over the region.The wall had become unclimbable to the most beast as the upper portions of these mountains had become a smooth wall.Towns and cities would position themselves high on the mountains and sit above the misty clouds that darkened the skies.A small valley where a massive gate stood was the only entrance to the western mountain region. A city stood around the two sides of the gates, and a city was made.Outside were numerous merchants of various cages.The people made a living by finding and capturing various small monsters that were around the mountainside, and various hunters and many merchants were there to buy their daily needs.The mountainside nearest the wall was
The town was located at a large tunnel built through the mountain.The town was able to use geography even to build mines at the sides and had numerous secret entrances that allowed the various knights to form guilds and groups to hunt the beasts on the mountain range.The Tamers don’t hunt here as they were banned since the entire mountain range where numerous monsters resided was considered to be ‘part’ of the Kingdom.This made all mountainside towns like this very popular for hunters and blacksmiths. Massive armories were found.“Blazer Hammer and Sword Guild...” Flay read the massive sign outside of the building.Blazer was a Baron family that was the main provider of weapons and equipment as they had the largest shares in the collective ownership of the mines.“Elite Tamer Flay...” Ligz worriedly asked.“What do you... plan to do?”“If you must address me by some title, go with big brother or something. It still feels weird being called Elite Tamer. You could call me Slime Tamer
The young master of the Blazer family trembled.He chased after the young tamer, but this time his sword was not brought along to threaten the young man.“Wait! You can’t sell that!” The young man shouted.“Under the laws you have signed, you will sell items to us first!” The young man shouted angrily.Flay turned at the man and sneered. Flay was well aware of the many laws and limitations imposed on them. Flay couldn't sell any items to any other merchant groups unless the Blazer family refused to buy the item.The entire scheme was a well-thought-of plot. Under these laws, the Tamers had to sell the items to the Blazer family. And since the Blazer family had threatened other families, no one was willing to buy, and the Tamers were forced to sell their items to the Blazer family.This already made the tamers lose a lot of money that they could potentially earn as the Blazer family would often, but these things are below market price!But Flay appeared with a rascally arrogant and hat
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
