Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 576, Master Kage Tenshi

Translator: Silavin

With the death of the Yamata-no-Orochi, his Combat Power as a Susanoo Shikigami could be said to be utterly ruined.

At this moment, despite being Level 119, his true Combat Power was likely inferior to that of a newly advanced Level 110 Player.

“Lu Fan! I shall one day tear you into ten thousand pieces!” Kage Mako’s eyes were bloodshot, his hatred reaching the point of madness.

However, he calmed himself down, recognising that Lu Fan’s strength far exceeded his imagination. Even if he still possessed Yamata-no-Orochi, let alone without it, he would absolutely be no match for Lu Fan.

Therefore, to achieve revenge, relying solely on his own power would be absolutely impossible. He would need to borrow his Master’s strength.

Although he knew that when today’s events reached his Master, Kage Tenshi’s ears, he would inevitably receive a thorough scolding and punishment, he had no choice in the matter at this point.

Thus, he retrieved a pitch-black stone from his Inventory and directly crushed it.

Instantly, black smoke poured forth from the stone, condensing into the phantom of a black-robed figure before Kage Mako.

After a moment, two red glows appeared beneath the phantom’s hood, clearly a pair of eyes examining Kage Mako.

Seeing that he had successfully made contact with his Master through this item, Kage Mako immediately knelt down and kowtowed in respect.

“Master…” The phantom’s gaze scrutinised Kage Mako once, then a voice slowly emerged. “What kind of enemy did you encounter that had forced you to use your first Level 100 Divine Skill to avoid death? You were forced to accept a 3 Level reduction to escape…”

Kage Mako felt bitter inside, for his Master spoke all truths.

Lu Fan’s failure to kill him alongside his Yamata-no-Orochi was not due to his own strength, but entirely thanks to his first Level 100 Divine Skill, Shikigami Reincarnation.

Using this Skill, he could successfully resurrect at the cost of reducing his own Level, gaining a period of Invulnerability during which he would suffer no Damage or Crowd Control Effect. It was during that opening that he could open a Transport Array.

This was truly a Divine Skill made only for escape, ensuring that even if Kage Mako encountered a Divine Being-level existence, he could still preserve his life.

This Divine Skill had never been used since he first got it.

Yet today, Lu Fan had forced him to employ it.

Kage Mako sighed deeply, his tone sorrowful: “I have brought shame upon you, Master… Today I encountered an extremely terrifying person. Not only did I die once at his hands, but even the Yamata-no-Orochi you gave me… was also killed by him…”

“What!?” Upon hearing this, Kage Tenshi’s tone became uncontrollably agitated.

The Yamata-no-Orochi had been obtained through his painstaking efforts, and he naturally knew what manner of price had to be paid to acquire such a Pet.

Kage Mako had shown remarkable talent since childhood and had the potential to inherit his mantle. Therefore, he had devoted his heart and soul to cultivating Kage Mako, even giving him the Yamata-no-Orochi as a Pet.

Now, however, Kage Mako claimed the Yamata-no-Orochi was dead, which he found difficult to accept.

” Yamata-no-Orochi is an Epic Grade Pet that you raised to Level 119. Even facing Fifth Profession Players, you should have had the ability to escape, shouldn’t you? Now you are telling me the Yamata-no-Orochi is dead. Are you truly not joking with me!?”

Kage Mako bitterly smiled. “Master, this is such a grave matter. How would I dare joke with you? In the Divine Fall Wilderness, I encountered a Dragon Paladin who was only Level 61, yet he possessed real Pet Dragons!”

“So what?” Kage Tenshi was dismissive. Although surprised that Pet Dragons existed in this world, this person was merely Level 61. His Level differed from Kage Mako’s by close to half. Theoretically, Lu Fan could never be Kage Mako’s match.

However, Kage Mako’s next words struck him like a heavy blow. “This person was absurdly powerful. I watched with my own eyes as he summoned four Pet Dragons, then fused all four Pet Dragons’ power into himself alone. With just one Skill release, Yamata-no-Orochi was killed… I didn’t even have time to recall Yamata-no-Orochi into my Pet Sub-Space before it was blasted to ash, leaving not a single drop of blood or fragment of flesh…”

Kage Tenshi’s tone shifted. “A Level 119 Yamata-no-Orochi was instantly killed by a Level 61 Player!? What kind of joke is this!?”

Kage Mako had anticipated his Master’s disbelief, but this was the truth—what could he do about it?

“Master, everything I have said is absolutely true…”

“Did you not use your Skill, Divine Susanoo, to properly protect Yamata-no-Orochi? Surely you didn’t fail to apply even this vital Defence Skill to your Pet?”

“Master, I applied the Skill, but it was still powerless against the opponent’s attack… Divine Susanoo is my other Level 100 Divine Skill, after all. How could I not apply it to Yamata-no-Orochi? It was just… Divine Susanoo’s defence was like paper against the opponent’s attack…”

Kage Tenshi fell silent as well.

He truly wondered whether Kage Mako had been defeated through carelessness, that he was not daring to speak the truth. After all, this was such an outrageous lie.

However, based on Kage Tenshi’s understanding of Kage Mako, he knew that Kage Mako would never dare deceive him.

Could there truly be a Level 61 Player capable of instantly killing Kage Mako’s Yamata-no-Orochi?! Would this person not be a reincarnated Divine Being!?

While Kage Tenshi remained silent, Kage Mako could no longer contain his inner fury and kowtowed heavily. “Master, please avenge me and Yamata-no-Orochi! This person killed the Pet I cultivated for years, effectively weakening me by more than half! I cannot swallow this humiliation! You are a Fifth Profession Player who has touched the threshold of Divine Power. That young man is absolutely no match for you. You must take action and tear this person into ten thousand pieces…”

After a pause, as if fearing Kage Tenshi might refuse, Kage Mako quickly added. “This person possesses several Pet Dragons, each one extraordinary, surpassing even the Yamata-no-Orochi that you gave me. He surely has means of obtaining Pet Dragons. If you capture him and force out the method of acquiring Pet Dragons, we Master and Disciple will surely advance further! At that point, even other Fifth Profession and above existences will be trampled beneath our feet!”

Both Kage Tenshi and Kage Mako shared similar Profession Characteristics, both having Beast Tamer Type Hidden Profession.

If they could truly obtain Pet Dragons, their strength would surely advance further, placing them above any of their rivals.

Therefore, Kage Tenshi was naturally tempted.
