The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 921

Chapter 921 Kept in Suspense

The rest came out of the Tiny World for a late dinner, in preparation for setting night watch in their silk tree fort.

This definitely was not a safe region for anyone to be setting up camp, even as close

as they were to the additional army units, and Delilah was not ready to just take Karl's word that Rae could take care of the night watch duties.

"Why don't we keep watch in shifts? I will take first watch with Rae, and then Lotus can keep watch with Ophelia, while you can take final watch with Nachtia? Then we will cycle the others in, so everyone gets nights off?" Karl suggested to the Red Dragon.

Karl called out the Lamia bodyguards, as well as the Epic Guard, who was looking more like a living creature every day.

The last battles had left the guard invigorated with power, and the energy sharing of the Haint Claw appeared to be subtly enhancing the creature, which looked much like an all black version of Overlord Leafa.

But as the Epic Guard increased in power, it was subtly changing to be less like the wayward Haint. The bark on its body was beginning to separate, giving it the effect of a ghostly woman in a humanoid tree, and less of a bark covered humanoid like a

dryad.

Karl wasn't sure if this was a form of evolution, or an armour skill, where the bark was the ablative armour. But the Epic Guard was becoming increasingly distinct.

"That is a curious creature you have summoned. Tell me, do you usually equip it with weaponry?" Delilah asked.

"If anything, I will give it a Haint Claw. It makes the Guard exceptionally combat capable. The Haint Claw itself has skills imbued on it, and the Epic Guard skill is capable of putting them to good use." Karl explained.

That was a bit less than a fully detailed description of what happened when the two things were combined, but they would get fully sidetracked if he started describing that.

"Interesting. And her presence activates a group buff. I can see why you activated that Guard for the night shift."

Karl smiled. "She also doesn't need to sleep, so the three of them can keep night shift company. The Lamia pair knows the basics of making tea, if you should get thirsty."

Once they had finished eating, and showered with the pleasantly warm water, courtesy of Remi, Everyone but Karl headed for bed. Even Dana went up to sleep, with Cara following her.
