The high priest was dressed elegantly in flowing red and green robes. He may have been aged but his eyes were sharp behind an old pair of bronze rimmed glasses. He carried a plain wooden scepter to assist in him walking and was followed by two older nuns, as his attendants. Ross saw this and smiled, his smile showed too many teeth. It was unnerving. The high priest would definitely take his word over some lowborn adventurers. "High priest! I beseech you to halt these trouble makers. They have slandered…-

"Su! Catch that man!" Walker was relating the order but Su had already caught his intentions and begun to move. Since Su was their party defender she had the strength to catch the man without injury. This left Walker able to support. Su had used one of her blocking skills to get right behind the man falling. In a second she had dropped her shield that she normally wore on her back and caught the man. "Sir are you ok? Did your injuries worsen?" Su was worried the man had become more injured even though…

Everyone seemed to wake up refreshed and full of energy. Hilda had been kind enough to set up enough sandwiches for everyone to have as they walked for breakfast. Elise had decided to let Stella remain at the mansion so that she could fly around the training field and be free. Laurence Had chosen to leave Hyde in the beast ring for safety since it was possible for him to start a fire by accident. He would hate to be the reason his new friends lost their beautiful home. "Alright now that we're all together…

They all continued chatting for some time. Gils and Su's parents had made their way inside introducing themselves and sitting at the dining table talking themselves. Garret had returned from his new guard position on the inner gates only to find walker had invited tamers to dinner. To say the least, he was ecstatic. "Don't tell me you've come to steal away walker from the adventurers guild. There's no way as a father I'd let him leave and wander the world only returning every few years. That's just not…

Laurence saw no reason to say no to Walkers offer, saving a few gold from staying at an inn And getting to know their party better was ideal. "Yes, that sounds like a grand time, we accept your offer." Elise couldn't be happier this meant that Stella could remain out of the beast ring and even fly in the air around the mansion. "It's settled then we'll find you all some rooms. If you are all up to it you can come to the adventurers guild tomorrow and meet our manager. I'm sure she will want to hear your…

Elise started to giggle a bit more than necessary. A tear in her eye " you're hysterical you just said you made two blood contracts with a straight face." This was something only some of the most powerful tamers could do. Getting the blood contract skill was so rare that if inscribed within a scroll it could sell for hundreds of thousands of gold to a tamer. This was mainly because the user would be so closely bonded that it was hard to distinguish from a master level contract. Not only that but the user…

Su went to claim a spot on one of the chairs. She had changed in to more comfortable cloths after her training earlier. Walker hadn't realized he had been the only one left due to him being lost in meditation. Laurence placed the little porcupine on the floor next to a coffee table and after glancing at Su immediately rolled in to a ball. "Ah you're looking more and more like a Hyde every time to do that." Laurence joked around starting to accept that may be that the name sticks. Onyx saw the porcupines…

"Well you can let her hang out all you wish here as long as she doesn't cause trouble she's the same as you or I." Stella smiled at this, she would have spoken if she could but harpies lacked the ability until they reached adulthood. A harpy fully grown gained some powerful abilities related to their voice. Some of which could stun, cause sleep, and even deafen an enemy. They were often dangerous in groups hence why adventurers hunting a harpy would put wax earplugs in their ears and use hand signals to…

Luckily as they group enter red Hilda wasn't working in the kitchen. If she had been walker would have gotten the scolding of his life in front of his new friends. The heat of the oven welcomed them. "So you wanted to warm us up, I thought it was strange you wanted to enter through here." Laurence thought walker had just brought them this way out of kindness. Elise however saw the reason why and jumped towards the side of the oven. "This my friends is midnight, she's sleeping while meditating so I'm…

Walker had not seen the system notifying him of his skill or of how wearing the earrings had influenced it. Instead he was completely entranced by the flow of mana around him. The mana in the earth was colder and dark slowly taking mana from the ice as it melted. The air was doing the opposite, it was pushing man in to the ice making it stronger and colder. The heat from the sun was a strange mix of light and fire mana that were melting and forcing the ice to release more mana back to the air and in to the…
