The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 971

Karl stood at the top of the temple, and looked down into the half empty pool of black energy where Cara was napping peacefully, mumbling about loot and cupcakes in her sleep.

Of all the things that he expected to find at the top of the temple, Cara was not one of them. It was clear that she hadn't taken any trials, and she had been here the whole time, just watching. The pile of cloth bags that the kitchen staff kept the snacks in told him that much.

Karl sent the empty bags back to the Guild Store inventory, so they could be cleaned and reused, then placed his hand on the stone plinth at the top of the stairs he had arrived from.

{Congratulations. Maximum Reward Achieved. Calculating}

{Status Optimized. Adjusting Interface.}

Karl wasn't sure what that was about, but suddenly, there was a wealth of new information available in his System Interface, including icons for his group members, which were all currently in a yellow status.

{Physique Optimized. Epic Grade Physique Active. Upgrading.}

{Chaos Beast Constitution} Tier 2 active. Improved Growth speed versus Tier 1.

{Class Status Optimized} Remaining Skills Unlocked

--------------------------------

{Packmaster Skill Tree}

[Follow Me Little One] Directly teach a known skill to a compatible target.

[Pack First] Removes the usage and targeting limits on {Evolution} but adds an increasing materials cost every time it is used on a bonded beast.

[Territorial] All attacks by the Packmaster have a chance to cause {Intimidation}

{Hidden Skill} [Home] One Time Use Skill. The Packmaster may designate a target location as their permanent home, granting various bonuses as the location is improved. Home location may be periodically changed, but never disabled.

[Pack Affinity] The Packmaster has an affinity for all skills that any of his bonded beasts have an affinity for, and may learn them as normal.

[Dominating Power] The Pack Master's Aura gains a {Mental Domination} effect at will, requiring weaker minds to submit to his will. Hypnosis type ability.

[Benevolent Elder] Unbonded Upgraded beasts gain the ability to form a [Contract] with eligible targets before the target's initial Class Selection

[Limitless] Passive Skill. Beasts Evolved by the Packmaster have an increased chance of surpassing milestones in development.

----------------------------------

Karl already had most of the skills in the Skill Tree, but [Benevolent Elder] was a big gain, and [Dominating Power] would be incredible in combat, even if it did still feel a bit creepy.
