Stellar stones were stones of great rarity. In the magically oriented planet that Flay was currently in, the thick magic allowed plants and ores to naturally be born in magic. Still, very few objects were born to harness it.Stones from space were the rare resource that naturally devoured and kept the magic to in itself. This innate power to store magic would allow the mages to craft high-level magic stones and create a Mid-Grade Core!“Stellar… Rocks!” The old mage nearly collapsed. How could this child gather enough of these stones to create at least three Cores?!“With the thick magic in this place, you should be able to create a Mid-Grade Elemental Core.But it was true. A potent coating had covered the stellar rocks with some strange greenish coat. Yet it did not corrupt or weaken the stone but masked all impurities that might taint it away from it!“This…! Where did you…?! How did you?!”“Now… I’m not a mage, but if it’s formation, artifact slotting, and other alchemy-related fie
The Beastmaster was startled at the sudden question that Flay posed to him.Kairo was a supreme alchemist, but Flay was a Tamer all his life. He considered monsters and bestial behavior natural to them.Even in the kingdom, the youngest Tamers and those who were invalids had become vital to hunts and had brought down the death toll to the point that none had yet died!And behind this was the Tamer’s mindset. There were lion-type beasts in their villages. Aside from their ancestors' ancient knowledge, was the fact that some of the former traitors of Monster’s Edge had tamed lion-type beasts!And it was straightforward for a tamer to understand a beast that they have subdued.“Your scent. I can smell that territorial marking of a lion. It must have been tough on you.” Flay laughed.The beast master’s expression turned ugly.“You…!”“I’ve been around lions. I can tell. Looking at your state, it means this lion is bound in your home but acting like a king. It is demanding food, and you pr
The King and Queen had a private meeting with Estelle. Though the city rejoiced at her return, no one could ever guess the stories that she now had laid out before them.The king was amazed at the stories that her daughter gave.Estelle continued on by saying what exactly Flay had faced in his place. And though Estelle told it as if Flay was from another continent, the stories of treacheries and divisions of what the Abaddons used surprised them.“As he said, the strategy is to give people power or something they will want and yearn for. This will fuel their greed. This will push them to desires and actions that they never once made. And so, division happens. They cause division by giving blessings, power, or even secrets! I have seen and heard of many battles and conflicts within our kingdoms. From small ones to greater ones. From royal families to merchants and even to our own family.” Estelle revealed it all.“The Bishop had served due to his desires for the secret powers of the cr
A young man was floating on the calm waters. Miraculously, he was still alive despite fighting the currents for so long.The first thing he saw when he woke up was a shiny, glittering light at the edge of the dark cave he found himself in.“Where… am I?” The young boy slowly crawled out of the pond that he was in. The darkness of the cave would have made it impossible for him to see if not for the light on the other side.“What happened?” The young man began to recall what had happened.As he was still groggy, it took him some time to recall what had happened.He was with his fellow Tamers investigating a mysterious thump that he heard which led them deep down a certain cave. They found a massive underground river that rushed out, and an ambush of a powerful pack of wolves occurred, and the young man fell into this river
Flay had remembered that the mysterious glowing pool could dissolve monsters that only their bones remained. Flay had also seen how deep the pit was. Even with the long, sickle arms, it would be easy for this half-mantis to leave.Flay ran towards the pool and relied on his hearing to tell if the mantis would throw itself forward, and Flay would make a sharp and low turn to avoid it.After successfully evading it several times, Flay was close to the pool. The manti jumped up once more, and Flay didn’t retreat but charged forward to block that attack of the mantis.CLASH!The sand blocked the two sickle-like arms.Flay relied on the fact that this mantis had no lower half, and Flay pushed back.His plan worked. The mantis didn't have the balance to stay still, and it began to push harder at Flay.Flay th
The massive Pteranodon was gliding and turning towards Flay, running down the hill.With the forest just below, Flay ran downhill. Thankfully, the Slimes sticky powers allowed him to keep his footing on each step.“Help me keep my balance!” Flay ordered, and he began to decrease his speed.“Master, why are you slowing down?”“Trust me!” Flay answered as he watched the Pteranodon’s massive body assume a landing position.The strong flap of the Pteranodon’s wings created a massive gust on the hill and the corrosive
The strange wilderness full of ponds and hills was terrifying to Flay. His ears could hear the movements in the waters nearby and avoided the ponds where he was sure there were monsters.Flay kept running and running but maintained silence and peak concentration.Even the Slime dared not ask any more questions but was amazed by the hearing of Flay, which would equal the Brute power users of the third Rank of Power who could enhance their hearing. But after seeing how some creatures emerged from the pond, the Slime realized that Flay was at least twice better than them.“Just who is this master of mine? His identity is even more curious than my own!” The Slime was amazed.Minutes passed as Flay moved further and further away from the river. He had been using the location of the stars and could roughly tell where the direction of his village was and where the Tamers
The massive figure of the Pteranodon cast a huge shadow on the ground that it flew over. Yet despite its massive wings, Flay knew that this dinosaur couldn’t fly but only use its wings to glide over the land. But its size and its powerful strength allowed it to leap and glide over hills.The shadow drew closer and closer, and both Flay and the gator both trembled in fear.But the massive shadow of the Pteranodon flew over them. Flay could see the shadow zoom by. Unexpectedly, they were not its target!BOOM!The Pteranodon landed elsewhere, and Flay couldn’t see it from the jaws of the gator.Flay sighed in relief.“What happened? I thought we goners…!” Flay sighed in relief.“It didn’t attack us? It’s probably this gator! The Death Mark can’t sense me as
