Arthen had numerous bandages on his leg and arm.Ruby was carrying him around, and he looked rather funny.“Spider Tamer Arthen. The strategist. I heard you played a role in keeping the walls closed up. Still, Asteria did do well in this battle. But had it not been for Flay’s master, she would have died. Here, of all places! Far from the land she was sworn to protect. There would have been some nobility if she died fighting the home of mages. I’d say… she’s lucky.” Catalina smirked as she glanced at Arthen.“There is clearly a vast difference in our ideology. Perhaps it was the way you two spoiled brats were raised. Daughters of a Great Expert. Does the chaos of the world not bother you?”“Hmph. I am merely saying our potential is much greater that we cannot allow ourselves to be caught up in such annoying nonsense. In this kingdom, many are expendables. But we are unexpendable.”“And yet, the two unexpendable ladies are guarding a Slime Tamer. Is it annoying? I can tell you really ha
Xandra entered with numerous books in hand. Her attire was beautiful as the Duchess clothed her with numerous uniforms befitting her status.“Lady Xandra.” Kanter smiled.Arthen bowed, and Flay moved towards her.“Wow…” Flay saw Xandra and couldn’t help but glance in wonder.“I was finally allowed to wear pretty clothes. At first, the Duchess and Duke feared that if I wore, such formal attire would draw reactions to the people for having a Tamer wear this. But I guess my credentials and support have proven my worth. Not to mention, we tamers are practically heroes now.” Xandra smiled.Flay approached, still enamored by Xandra’s beauty. Xandra only wore plain clothes and rather primitive outfits. But not only was she dressed up, but it was also clear that she was wearing makeup that highlighted her beauty.“Lilly and Selena had fun putting this makeup… Although they were also grumbling because they were envious of me.” Xandra smiled.“You just… look amazing.” Flay seemed to have an awk
A tired Lieutenant of the army, an Adept Knight, had finally arrived after several months of a mission leading to a hunt against a wild Mid-E ranked Sabertooth King Tiger that threatened the middle regions of the West cities.Deep in the jungle, he only heard strange tales as he journeyed home.“Westerfort city at last!” He sighed as he watched the great mountain extend to the heights of heaven.The lieutenant glanced around and frowned.“I guess everyone is so busy that they can’t even spare a welcoming group for us who spent these last two months out in that forest…” The lieutenant grumbled as he saw the busy soldiers.Many were constantly moving up and down the platforms headed towards the Heavenly cities.“Captian Raca. I heard that the fortress above was attacked by an unknown army of the beast that is known as the anomalous beast. It looks like we are increasing defenses all over this place…” A soldier that went with him spoke.“Yes. I should pay a visit to the Westerfort Heaven
Months ago, being an Apprentice in Monster’s Edge would make you strong. But the more Puk told of the story, those who could match and defeat Adepts were strong, but those who could beat Experts like Flay and Merick were the new powerhouses of the village.“There was an issue with his Taming hand blocking the Brute power. But it’s resolved now, thanks to his mysterious master. Cousin. Just as you are shocked that the city is treating you like heroes, you should treat Flay as the village's strongest and most important man! If we are treated as heroes here, then in the village, Flay is our hero!” Puk chuckled.Dice was amazed as he glanced around and could see respectful gazes and bows as he passed by. These gazes were once looking of contempt.“So no one will threaten us now?”“Threaten you? Most of the officers in the highest position here were in t
The Viscount was calling to Merick like one would do so to an old friend.“Huh?!” Raca froze when he saw the Viscount move.“Viscount, Gerela. I am honored to meet you. But may I ask why you have wished to see me?” Merick was confused. He had never met the Viscount personally with how busy he was and hadn’t been informed by the Duke that he would meet this Viscount.“It’s like this… I was very impressed with the deeds and power of the Tamers back then. And so, I thought that it would be best to solidify the position and relationship of the Tamers and the Kingdom with marriage. I have several daughters who are as beautiful, and I daresay even more beautiful than Baroness Elaine. I’m sure Arthen or Clint Eastwood would be delighted with such a thing. So, I request to set a meeting for my daughters to meet these young heroes.”<
In the past week that followed Flay’s awakening, there was an issue with what to do with the corpses. Having won a war against monsters meant that there would be a treasure trove of riches from the corpses of the beasts.Among the plans discussed was for the level of the Westerforts to increase. And this meant alchemic skills that would maximize the anomalous beasts at their doorsteps.Flay had revealed secret alchemy techniques that Kairo had created long ago. And while Kairo only brought out a small droplet of his knowledge, it increased pill creation and power. Like before, Kairo revealed a technique that would increase the alchemic creation to forty-one points of energy being successfully extracted from a monster core.But this technique would use the entire bodies of beasts, not just the core.Kairo Majekon was the Alchemist the Eos praised, and his knowledge surpassed common understanding.Through Flay, he passed on one of his amazing legacies that altered the basic perception o
Aside from the preparation of Alchemy, the fighting force of the Duke also underwent strict military training.Using the threat of the Anomalous Beast, the Dukedom had received emergency permission to override the control of Galantcros and turned the Westerforts into a place that the Duke could exclusively control.This led to a shuffling of officers in all military branches in the Westerfort region as those who were people of the Duke were in place.The political power in the Westerforts also changed because of the debt the other forts had towards it. Prince Veil also supported the rise of the Westerforts allowing Kanter to stabilize his position even further.But what the Westerfort needed was a team of its own. The army of Anomalous beasts was now a blessing more than a curse.The lives lost were few despite its terror because of the mysterious Majekon and the preparations that Asteria and Kanter had.Most of those who died were even from the South and the East because of the cunni
Flay is an abusive, masochistic, unmerciful, vile, and insidious man who loves to devour infants during his afternoon breakfast.And yes, it would be in the afternoon, but who would dare correct Flay if he calls his second meal in the day, which is also in the afternoon, to be breakfast?This was the rumor that would soon spread out among the men of the Westerfort who had suffered tremendously in the hands of Flay.Flay attacked a team of fifty men, with several monsters at the level of High Apprentices or Adepts. They even had an expert with them, Richard, who had the strength that could keep up with Experts!But they lost all confidence in front of the monster before them.As the Battle Steed ate the core parts of Arvenaught, the power of teleporting became possible. But through Neptune, Flay was making Dark Ice that coated the B
