The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1010

Karl punctured the next one, saving the shell in case Rae needed more materials. Then he pinned one down with his tail as the Orc gleefully stabbed it with his pitchfork, using [Cleave] to kill it.

{Good work.} Karl congratulated him, and realized this form could only speak Serpent.

"Thanks. Is that a skill, or was the other one a skill?" The Orc asked.

{Both of them are skills, actually. My natural form is much less impressive to look at.} Karl laughed.

Karl smashed his way through the small group of crabs, then let the Orc go to rejoin his Clan. It was a good chance to go for a flight in dragon form, and see just how fun it was to fly on your own.

Powerful muscles extended enormous golden wings, and a single downward thrust hurled Karl into the sky. With [Agile Flyer] from Cara, and [Swims Through Air] from Remi, flying in dragon form was effortless. On top of that, the knowledge from the [Avatar] skill told him exactly how to work his transformed body, and soon Karl was soaring through the sky, looking for anything that the rest of the group might have missed.

Nachtia flew over to greet Karl, once she took a look at his name tag with the System Interface and realized that they didn't have another Totem Ranked visitor.

{Looking good in Gold. Did your transformation spell change? I think that Dana will miss the fur.} She called over the noise of the wind, which was oddly muffled in dragon form.

{No, I managed to update my class, and now I have a second option for transformation. Cat form, or dragon form.} Karl called back.

Nachtia dipped to the side, and Karl followed, chasing the dragon through the air as he got used to moving around on two wings. _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}

Hawk came over to fly alongside the others, and to see how Karl did in a winged form. He could kind of fly before, but nothing like he was doing now. The skill turned him into a Totem Ranked World Dragon, at least in appearance, and he was half again larger than Hawk or Nachtia.

So, when he opened his wings to soar, Karl floated on the drafts much better than either of them, and his immense strength let him cut and bank every bit as well as the smaller duo.

Though, he did have a habit of losing spatial awareness and ending up upside down after a manoeuvre.

They didn't totally slack off, though. Every minute or so, they would dive down and take out three more crabs, just enough that the others couldn't accuse them of just playing around all day.

But the Orcs weren't fooled. They knew when someone was having fun in battle.

Fortunately, they also assumed that the Dragons were making an effort not to steal all their potential food supplies, as the team on the ground had already made huge progress. The Orcs took that as a sign of kindness, as they were always short on food in the desert, as well as the surrounding grasslands, and mentally noted that these Clerics and their companions were friends.

When the crabs were nearly all gone, Karl led Nachtia and Hawk down to meet with the Orcish Chieftain, to say their farewells, or make a trade.

Whichever worked for the Chief.
