Everyone was stunned at the scene.

Flay had managed to counter the Iai attack and even Liathel’s thoughts went blank. She saw the fist in front of her, but at that moment, she was about to make the attack the kick happened. A soul-freezing killing intent paralyzed her and made her incapable of breathing.

Because of that, she never managed to draw out her sword.

Her arms began to tremble as the Brute Power from Flay’s kick distorted her attempts to draw the sword out.

Those who saw it only saw Flay move with a faster speed that defeated the Quick Draw Iai technique.

But Liathel, who faced the attack, felt various complications that allowed Flay to succeed.

Iai was a complicated attack that harnessed Brute Power to make a strong slash. It was one of the strongest single-strike attacks that used Brute Power. And Liathel was a genius among the users of Iai.

Elaine was horrified at the scene. If Flay was armed and the two fought, her sister, which was stronger than her, would have perished

    Outside of the camp, the Tamers were doing one of the most grueling processes of their return to the city. And this was selling of the loots and spoils of their hunt. Beasts of all sorts were all presented before the outside branch of the Blazer family. It was here where most merchants, hunters, and mercenaries would drop off their loots from their successful hunts in the mountainsides. Numerous goblin creatures and chitin from the nearby falls and rivers were drawn in. But the eyes of every one were focused on the group that the tamers had brought in. To many of them, it was the first time to see Gator Spawn and Desert Vultures! “This is insane! This haul could easily reach 1700 gold! And you're selling it for 1500?!” Hunter shouted. Jagg, Eberforth, and Exul continued to watch at the sides while the other tamers were all presenting all the beast. All had sour expressions as the Blazer family had once more decreased the market value of these creatures. “What can I say? The leath

    Back inside the city, Flay moved along with the Diason family, and Liathel continued to explain just what the tournament was all about.“The Wester Forts Tournament is a contest of might on all the cities on this side of the wall. While this is the main entrance, numerous cities hide behind the wall and have small door entrances that lead into the city.”“So this isn’t the only city where people can move in and out with that large gate?”“This city is the only city that has a gate. This place is in between the valley of two mountain ranges. But on the other parts of the wall, cities were made either inside the mountains or mines, and tunnels were created. We still need to guard all sides of the wall, and therefore there must be cities watching over this place, and hunters, mercenaries, and adventurers go out through these small walls.”“So that’s how they guard all sides of the wall. And all of these towns belong to the Wester Forts region?”“Correct. The Wester Forts Tournament is a

    As the events outside continued to erupt, another important meeting was happening.“Warlock Stevvis. I am Xandra Voltz, A servant of the Warlocks, by the order of Ahasuerus!” Xandra declared as she knelt before the Warlock in the darkroom. Warlock Stevvis was in the darkest parts of the room, and strange yellow eyes glowed from the darkness. Xandra couldn’t tell what monsters were bound to the Warlock.“Voltz? You can’t be serious? Should I just kill you where you stand?” The Warlock laughed.A powerful and thick intent fell on Xandra.Xandra knew this would be the case and resisted the power and stood up and stared back at the Warlock.“Warlock Morholt is not the only Warlock. I will tell you to know, that my master, who has revealed himself to be Ahasuerus, took me in some time ago. Compared to your killing intent, his was truly terrifying. How is my Taming Hand stronger if you don’t believe this?” Xandra revealed the color of her hand.The Teal color was shown brightly and made th

    The news of a Galantcros being a warlock was shocking for Xandra. The Kingdom was formed by unifying numerous kingdoms, some big and some small. But when they were united, it was the Galantcros family that led and solidified the alliance. And while they were not the leaders over all the kingdoms, they still possessed the standing and authority to dwarf other kings.The Kingdom was even named after them. The Galant Cross Kingdom had numerous kings and queens, princes and princesses, but being a princess with the Galantcros surname made them even more prestigious and special.So Xandra couldn’t understand how such a divine and beautiful family could even be monstrous cultivators with very vile means of cultivating.“You are shocked, I see. Warlocks can choose to be beautiful if that is their desire. This princess is quite wicked and uses her authority to bully our Circle. Her intentions are clearly her own. Tell me, Xandra Voltz. You betrayed her. What future remains for you?”“I have c

    Flay and Ligz continued to wait for Liathel to appear and could already see the long line of people wanting to register. Ligz kept watching as he looked at Flay, whose eyes were shut as he sat down and continued to use his ears to listen to those around.Ligz carried a parchment with numerous things written on it. They were the names of people and the crimes they committed.Throughout the time, Flay used his ears to hear whatever gossips there were.“A man named Chris. Can’t really tell the name. But he’s having an affair with one of his superior's wife named Melanie.” Flay spoke.Ligz wrote it down.“No surnames, master Flay?”“Uh no... I keep hearing Chris, Chris Chris... And the other is Melanie, Melanie, Melanie.”Liz's expression turned red.“Anyway, I tuned them out when that little ‘name-calling’ started. But this Westerfort Tournament really makes a lot of crimes appear. Everyone gets so busy, and so many people come into this place that all forms of crimes happen. Smuggling,

    The group stood at the entrance of the Hell Course and watched over it.Numerous knights emerged with battered armor. Some of their allies were even dead.Warriors, archers, and apprentice mages were all over the place.People were cursing angrily as they left the area. Some were even weeping.Flay had known that there was something strange in the Hell Course as he managed to somehow hear an area within the Hell Course. His ears were even more sensitive to those shouting and crying for their lives.“What’s going on?” Arthen frowned as he watched the horrifying cries and deaths.“The Hell Course is a deep cave that extends down the mines. It is said to take three or four days to go from the entrance here and move towards the exit on the other side of town. But it’s not surprising for explorers to be lost for weeks as the cave expands to all sides. This is because the Westerfort Towns have long been trying to clear out the underground areas of this place so they could mine more ores.” L

    The Diason family stood in front of the Westerfort City official and the members of the Blazer family.“You claim to be able to clear the monsters in the den… permanently?” One of the Westerfort officials laughed.Liathel stood by, maintaining her serious expression.Geisler also had a confused expression. But he had no choice but to take things seriously as Flay was present nearby.“Yes. It’s going to be easy to prove it. All those going inside the Hell Course are passing through the main road. You intended to use this tournament to lessen the monster horde, as some of them have already been emerging outside of the exits. And as you’ve already seen through the years that the monster horde fails. So if we go in, we plan to stop the cause of the monster horde.” Liathel answered.“Are you guys serious?” The City official laughed.“How are you going to clear the monster hordes inside?”“It’s a trade secret. So why should we tell you? You can do it, honestly. But we have our plan.”“Do yo

  • Tales of the Slime Tamer   Chapter 95: Killing Hector

    The Tamers were considered the weakest of all Brute practitioners for numerous reasons. The biggest one was that they had no Fighting Professions necessary for all to have. In the Kingdom, people like Barons and other nobles would even begin training in a specific Fighting Profession at a young age. They train to be archers, knights, sword warriors, scouts, hunters, and other paths. People like the Tamers who have no specific Fighting Professions belonged to the general category of Brute Practitioners. Liathel and Elaine had trained as Sword-Maidens since they were young and even could perform certain Skills as Rookies. But for, those who were magic practitioners could only begin training in a specific Magic Profession when they became Apprentices. The entire Rookie period was training to harness and wield magic from outside sources or to command the magic to be drawn out of those who were magic capable. Hector declared that he was a ‘Learned Fire Apprentice’, which meant he took

    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
