The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63 Modification

The odd collection of Elites that were called here from the Bureau of Elite Development seemed like a cheerful bunch to Karl, and even more so after they were given no real restrictions on how to deal with the two new recruits.

They were all used to working in pairs, which was so they had someone to watch their back as much as it was intended to prevent corruption, as the Colonel had suggested, so giving them a warrior and mage combo was perfect for their preferred fighting style.

"I think that what we should start with is actually more of a skills' development than tactics. Normally, we would work with students about to graduate, so they would have a half dozen skills in their repertoire, but I am assuming that you two both only have one each." One of the warriors in civilian clothing suggested.

"I have two now, thanks to Overlord Drake, and Prince Axel gave Dana a Golem spell book. Plus, she knows Fog in addition to her base magic missile already." Karl explained.

The man looked impressed, and turned to the ginger haired female soldier beside him. "It looks like they really are on the path to fame, they're meeting all the right people already."

"Don't mind Josh, he's jealous that you got to meet the Prince. You can call me Anise, and I will be helping you with your adaptation skills. One of the most important things you can do with your abilities is learning new ways to use them.

The more creative you can be with them, the more useful even the basic skills will become. For example, the Fog spell. It's not considered one of the more powerful spells, but did you know that you can condense it in just a ring to create a solid visual barrier?

That alone will give you a huge advantage in combat, as you can block off the view of your enemies while you escape. If you block a spot in an alley, it becomes much easier to run into a building without being followed. Anything pursuing you will have to guess what building you went into. Or you can cast it over the outside of a moving vehicle and make them crash." She explained.

Dana was shocked by that last suggestion.

"Do the elites get into conflicts with other people a lot?" She asked.

"We do. Most of the Elites are a different story, but the teams here don't just guide the other Elites toward more power, but away from taking the wrong paths in life. Sometimes we will be sent to deal with Elites gone rogue, drunkards and abusers.

But the same techniques can be used against intelligent monsters. For example, the Mythril Tiger. They're smarter than most people you will meet, and if you want to lose them once they're following you, it will take a lot of effort.

The full-grown ones are on the strong side of Commander Rank, and even two on one, it can be difficult for Elites at the same rank to take them out unless they're caught in the open." Anise agreed.
