The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1990 Questions Are Good

Just having the new members visit the Tiny World had already started to make major changes, and Karl couldn't argue that the benefits they got from the trial didn't matter. But what he saw in some of the others would be much more life changing than the objectively more powerful bonuses that Karl and Luminaria got.

For example, Yewan had managed to master [Rebirth] to such an extreme extent that the little dragon had actually gotten a Legendary Tier skill [Reborn Of The Underworld].

If he was killed he would go to the afterlife, and then be reborn with his full powers.

Tena suggested that it might actually be a punishment for the Death God, since the little dragon had managed to annoy the trial enough that it created someone to answer all his questions. But the Divine Lightning Dragon hadn't been any less curious, she had just managed to focus most of her questions onto the topic of Divine Lightning, which was what she was learning.

Yewan didn't see the issue, other than the fact that he still had questions that nobody had answered.

He got his task done, so his questions couldn't have been too big of a problem, right?

Besides, how did you learn things if you didn't ask all the questions?

Even their trio of recruits from the New Home, Amie, Samba and Colima had come out well.

Amie had managed to learn [Limited Invulnerability] for herself, which paired well with the [Warbeast] transformation that Cara had taught her to bring her into the Guild. Samba and Colima had both gained [Elemental Duplication], which brought them a substantial bump in their combat abilities.

They were both on the path to becoming elemental focused Golem Mages at this point, as the spell worked not just on their specialized spells, but also on the conjured Elementals that they used instead of Golems.

Especially Colima, who had four small fire elementals to begin with.

Even if they were small, no larger than a Goblin, eight fire elementals were a massively destructive force, capable of hurling [Firebolt] spells at their enemies from impressive distances, and dealing fire damage on every attack.

Hawk was proud of her.

Some of the members had gotten completely mundane seeming trials, though, Tessa's had been to finish forming her Immortal Spirit, nothing more. She had managed to gain a fair bit of power along the way, but that was simply a side effect of stabilizing her advancement.

Then Tifa, the Spirit Bear Tyrant Cub bonded to Lotus, had grown to the size of a Dire Bear during the trial, but was still firmly convinced that she was a cuddly lap cub.

Much to Ophelia's dismay and Lotus' delight.

Two large bears did not fit conveniently in the bed, and Tifa didn't have a skill that would let her shrink back to cub sized. So, Lotus found herself sandwiched between bears for her nap, and it was bliss.

Only Ophelia had to sacrifice most of her spot on the bed to the overgrown cub, or let Tifa sleep on top of her, as the bear had planned to do from the start.

Tifa didn't see the issue with it, Ophelia was strong, and she wouldn't suffer from being cuddled. But she hadn't thought about the amount of body heat that two bears in one bed would generate.

Even if one was in Werebear form.

Tena thought that the whole thing was hilarious, as she usually slept in a swinging nest overhead. Not always alone, Lotus liked to sleep there in dragon form as well. But she didn't have to share her bed with a giant bear, since Tifa couldn't fit in the nest anymore.

"Well, now we've got a whole new group of Immortals ready to go out and see the world. We just need an opportunity to have them test their skills on something.

I would suggest the mining dungeon, but it's above their level by too much. There also isn't another dungeon nearby that is suitable and open for us to access regularly. Should we start looking further abroad?" Karl pondered as he examined the Tiny World's changes.

Oak shrugged, while Dana shook her head.

"No, I think that we can find something that's not too far from the Guild. Not a trial, but there are a few dungeons in the area controlled by lesser Clans. The New Home accesses them sometimes, but the rewards are not good, and most view it as not worth the effort.

Still, for a first outing, I think that we could trade an item or two and get them access while we keep watch outside, like proper Elders."

Karl laughed at the memory. That was how the Immortals did it. Elders made the arrangements, or fought for entry rights, then stood outside to make sure that their juniors weren't jumped when they left the dungeon or hidden realm.

The items inside might not matter at all to an Elder, but to a new Immortal, every resource was a worthwhile resource.

"Ladies, do you have any thoughts?" Karl asked.

"Just ladies? Not asking for input from the men?" Oak teased.

"There aren't any men in the new group of Immortals. In fact, I suspect that someone has been secretly stacking our Guild with females for quite some time."

Dana laughed at Karl. "And who was it who took in an all female village, then a mostly female wave of freed slaves, and then a whole Clan worth of bunnies?"

"See, the deck is stacked, and our Guild is imbalanced. I'm going to have to find a lost group of wandering male bunnies, or perhaps an Incubus Clan in need of a home."

Oak laughed. "Ooh, I can help with this. We can go grab a bunch of blue dragons in need of work, since everyone snaps up the quieter females first. Then we can get some Minotaurs. Big, muscled, thick horned Manly Minotaurs."

Karl laughed, thinking that Oak might be just as bad as Opal. Then, he saw the bunnies blush, and realized that the dragon was teasing them.

Minotaurs were not predators by lineage, though they were ferocious fighters.

So, the bunnies weren't nearly as afraid of them as they were of the Lycans, and the bunnies did have a soft spot for thick muscles and men large enough to carry them like a princess.
