The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 469

Chapter 469 Comparisons

Karl watched the beasts fight with the two Lamia bodyguards, while Rae and Remi compared them to the bodyguards and Golems that they had.

It was hard to tell whose were the most deadly between Karl and Rae, as they both had [Offensive Optimization] available, and the Lamia had to hold back against the student beast.

But there was some argument over whether four arms with swords was better than eight legs, when only the front two were normally used to attack.

They wanted to test the theory, but they didn't want to give away their actual power level while they were still being observed by others. The beast clerics weren't bad sorts, at least not in the mind of the beasts, but they weren't part of the team.

[They told us the first day that you should always have a secret reserve of power that nobody else knows about.] Hawk reminded them.

Not So Evil Lady had said it very clearly.

The students training against the Bodyguards changed, and the pair of white Lamia tested them to their limits, making them improve their strategies in ways that the clerics hadn't thought of before, and use their skills and bodies in the most effective manners.

The teacher was impressed that the training could go so smoothly, and with Karl using Skill Master on both the students and his own beasts, everyone was making progress.

Most of the team couldn't use the skills that they were seeing, but there was hope that it would give them inspiration to more easily learn other skills that they were compatible with.

It was also valuable training for the team, as they had been fighting Giants for a while, and now they had the chance to watch battles with multiple body styles.

The Bodyguards had some combat skills, but at first, they lacked combat instincts. Even after practice, they were still lacking compared to a trained Elite, but the same was true of Golems, so Karl put the spell on the same general level.

Karl let them practice until lunch, when the older students went to their indoor training, which was more private, as it was church doctrine, and the humans weren't followers of the beast gods.

The cafeteria was busy at lunch, but Dana had many questions for Karl.

"When did you learn to use Bodyguards? Or are those Remi's? Plus, why can they use your skills?"

"I honestly have no idea. Remi has never sent hers into combat yet, so I don't know if they can also use some of her skills. If they can use even one or two of her skills, they will be very dangerous. But mine came out as Lamia, and hers are Naga Warriors. It might be the form that determined the abilities.

But for the Lamia, their outfit looks more decorative, while for the Naga bodyguards, Bestial Raiment looks like it's actually making Epic Grade armour on them."
