The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 632

Chapter 632 Alternate Solutions

Remi was in full agreement with Karl's thoughts on the grand solution for their problem. [Why not have like three different specialties? As far as battle tactics go, there really are just warriors, mages and others.] She offered.

"My partner Remi, the Naga Queen over there, has a suggestion.

Why not increase flexibility? You can have teams led by warriors or mages, and then the others can fill in, since there are far more mages and warriors than anything else."

"And how do you guarantee that we will have enough of them if we try bringing them up among our ranks?"

Karl smiled. "That's the easy part. Plead with the Blue Dragons to give them skill books."

The Overlord gave Karl a look that said two things.

First, he wanted to strangle Karl for suggesting it.

Second, he had already tried it and had been not so politely told that they would not be making thousands of skill books for him.

After all, they had to be handwritten by a suitably powerful user, and the number of Blue Clerics and Inscriptionist Mages was limited.

Karl relented when he realized that the plan was already rejected. "I joke. No, send them all to the trial at the Cathedral and order them to pick Mage or Warrior if they are given the option. If they're compatible, the trial ground should awaken System users now."

Drath sighed. "We tried that too. It only worked to awaken Clerics. However, it is a great advancement resource for Elites who have reached Commander Rank."

"It seems that military efficiency and the System do not mingle well. However, I do think that it would be best to just go with it. Train everyone in the same combat techniques so that they can fight together as needed, and then let the units work it out at their end with the ranged and close combat attackers. From a practical standpoint, it doesn't matter if that enemy at a hundred metres died to a magic missile, an enchanted arrow or a battle cannon on a mobile artillery piece."

Drath chuckled, looking younger than he had when he arrived. "That was my suggestion as well, but the President and the other Generals voted it down as too chaotic. That's why I have been looking for a better proposal.

Count yourself lucky that you didn't get roped into a political position. It's a giant pain in the ass, and when you actually use the power you are given, you end up stepping on well-connected toes, and making your next effort harder than it has to be."
