The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Interview with Israel

At that point, the crew all realized that Karl was just cherry-picking stories to mess with them, but none of them doubted that Rae could mutilate an armoured vehicle.

"Which one of your pets is the friendliest?" The producer asked hopefully.

"Thor, followed by Remi. Hawk isn't really a people person, he just likes to watch them doing dumb stuff from above."

Hawk nodded in agreement. People were always doing dumb things. That was why you had to watch your fireballs all the way down. Because they might run right into them.

The producer nodded, then gestured for the Inquisitor to start the interview. "Good evening parishioners. I am High Priest Israel, here with a special bit of good news for you all. It is my pleasure to let you all know that we have independently verified that this young man sitting next to me has reached a major milestone. This is Prince Karl, born and raised in the Lithium Mines, and now the newest member of the Royal Rank Elites. Beside him is his Dragonhawk, who answers to the name Hawk. They are the subject of the recent hit song, Hawk the Giant Slayer.

Why don't we start there? The hawk is a majestic example of the species, and more powerful than I think any of use would have expected. Is he like a Parrot? Can he speak and understand human language?" The Inquisitor asked.

Hawk shook his head and Karl answered for him. "He can understand us just fine, but he can't speak. However, our bond allows us to communicate, so I can relay answers for him."

"That sounds like an incredibly useful ability. Is that why you rely upon him to do most of the scouting for your group?" Karl nodded. "Indeed. Being able to look down on a situation from above gives us a much better idea of what is going on, and reveals many hidden traps and potential ambushes that would have been hidden when scouted from ground level.

Combined with the extremely well refined eyesight and enhanced range of colours that he can see, and it is an incredibly potent combination."

"We are told that there is a song about you two, have you had a chance to hear it?" Israel asked.

"We did, actually. The bards in camp were playing it, and we got a good chuckle out of their rendition of our activities. They are truly a gifted class of Elites." Karl agreed.

Inquisitor Israel gave a professional smile to the camera, paused for a few seconds, giving them time to insert footage of the music, then continued. "How does it feel to be the youngest Royal Rank Elite in the decade that the program has been running? It has to be exciting for you."

Karl nodded. "It's a crazy feeling, and I can't really wrap my head around it. Royal Rank is just so far beyond anything that I thought I could achieve, that it is taking a while to truly sink in."

The interview went on for another half an hour and switched interviewers twice. They were both from the team of reporters, and only asked simple questions while avoiding anything that might need to be heavily edited or completely scrapped.

When they were finally finished, the final reporter got out of his seat, and he was replaced by a young woman in a wizard themed idol dress that wasn't hiding much of anything from Karl's point of view. It was knee-length and ruffled, but there was a slit up the thigh clear to the hip, and deep cleavage, despite the somewhat modest looking wide sleeves and high collar.

Karl was briefly mesmerized by her personality, but then he realized that this woman was also Royal Rank.

"Prince Karl, meet the Archmage." Israel introduced them.

"A pleasure." She responded, sounding like it was nothing of the sort.

"If we're dressing up for this, should I put on my fancy armour?" Karl asked. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

The Inquisitor looked confused for a second until Karl changed into [Beast Armour] with the white fur cloak from the Frost Giants and no helmet. This time, the Chitin appeared as white with gold trim over the black scales, and Karl swept out the cloak, letting it pool behind him as he perched forward on the chair.

An assistant rushed forward, rearranging his cloak and his position, then gave him a thumbs up.

The Archmage looked startled at his armour, and leaned forward to inspect it, giving Karl a view down her ample cleavage.
