Note: It'll be 3rd-person POV from here to the next chapter. . . . As Will opened his eyes, his iris changed from the usual blue hue to a shining golden one. Sparks of a similarly golden color streaked across the air around him. At this moment, Ember lowered the barricade in front of Will. Before the barrier even completely opened, he was already standing outside of it. Neither Fang, Ember, nor the worms noticed his movements. It only seemed that he was on the ground at one moment, then already…-

"One thousand three hundred nine..." I muttered as I stood up as quickly as I can. Then, I lowered my stance as I waited for the worms to appear. After they finished materializing, they immediately lunged toward my position. Seeing the nearest one, I quickly jumped up and stepped on top of its head. Then, after looking around, found a gap between them just enough to pass through. I used the worm's head as a springboard and shot straight through the gap. As soon as my feet landed, I checked the…

The thousands of demon ground worms quickly gathered around us three. If we don't do anything, we will surely die. Even if this is our last, I wouldn't just stand still and wait for our end. "Ember, barricade!" I decided to sacrifice some of Ember's clones to create a barricade. At least to limit the directions we need to guard. Using three of her clones, they simultaneously used and and transformed into a semi-transparent wall on our three sides, extending upwards to as high as the…

Only the dwarves are capable enough to repair the gun. Given that they are categorized as monsters, they do not have the ability to tame other beasts or monsters. If they do, then they would have long since wiped out the demons underground and mined all the resources available. Since they are telling me to fetch the metal to be used for the repair myself, it's the same as saying that the dwarves, whose bodies could withstand the impact of the gun's recoil, couldn't ensure their personal safety in the…

We found the location of the Forge of the Ancients, which means that the ones who could repair Fatima's gun are somewhere nearby. Just as Ember and Fang passed through the illusion, a loud voice rained down upon us. "Trespassers! Name yourselves!" A deep and intimidating voice echoed around. As the sound was bouncing all around the wide cave, we couldn't pinpoint where the voice was coming from. Deciding that staying quiet is a foolish thing to do, I quickly answered. "I'm Will, a tamer! These two…

For tamed monsters, at their 3rd awakening level, they start to learn their specializations instead of their normal skills. Ember learned basic skills like , , , and such from her basic and 1st awakening levels. Although she didn't manage to study her new skills at the 2nd level, she managed to develop her new element at the 3rd level instead. However, she had yet to have a specific specialization. Specialization is a process where a beast or monster chooses a path to pursue. Even before getting…

After God Zeshion left, the lady called to me from behind. "Tamer Will, I thank you on behalf of the Capital City. Without your help, the damage would surely be larger than it is." She gently said as she passed a storage ring to me. "As thanks, let me give you this storage ring and double your prize money for eliminating those ten Demon Tamers. Your payment is already inside, you can confirm it later." I was surprised at how quickly she worked. "Thank you, miss..." I stuttered as I don't know…

The three of us went back to the large tent with a bounce to our steps. When we entered, God Zeshion and the other lady were wearing wry smiles. "To think you really killed a Demon Tamer... Looks like I underestimated you, Will." God Zeshion snicked bitterly. By the looks of it, they seem to have witnessed our actions from earlier. It was probably thanks to the lady's skill. "Well, I needed money for my weapon's repair. Thanks for the thing with the bullets, though." I scratched the back of my…

"Sacrificing their tamed beasts for power..." The idea was stuck in the back of my mind. I turned to look at Ember and Fang, who were quietly observing the dots on the map. 'I would never do that to them.' "Anyways, the Demon Tamers are powerful. Their bodies alone are even more powerful than a 9th-stage monster's. However, their defenses aren't up to par with their strength." God Zeshion added. 'So they're like mages in games? Paper cannons!' Thinking so, an idea popped inside my head. "What…

As the hunk left in a flash, the temperature inside the tent returned to normal. Shortly after, the other two higher-ups hurried and called their own tamed beasts before one of them left the tent. The old man had called an androgynous-looking monster covered in several layers of fluttering strips of white cloth. Its eyes were blindfolded by a black strip, heavily contrasting from the other strips. Its figure exudes an ephemeral aura with tiny particles of light being emitted gradually from its…
