Master Of None

Chapter 1208: 1208. Championʼs Haul

”Ignus, I see that your champion has brought back a fairly large steel hide rhinoceros. Tell me, did they hunt that today or while you traveled here? I doubt itʼs warm enough for it to be in this area just yet.” Ventus was surprisingly competitive with the way that the champions performed. She had begun to judge every single catch as they returned.

”Says the one that had their champion bring back a cloud serpent. Ha! You and I both know that those live within giant thunderstorms and are bred by your villages for exactly these times.” It was the wrong move to push Ignus, he would refute whatever he could with whatever method. The fires he produced matched his attitude.

”Please, I at least had my champion go beneath this mountain to the ravine with Terronʼs champion to work together. We may not join hands often but the twin hundred year old mudfish they brought back were caught in pristine condition.” Current had not shown at all that he had allied with Terron.

But when both their champions came back to show off the dark muddy fish monsters the size of a small home, they had smiled widely.

The hundred year old mudfish were monsters that could swim through the muddy earth the same as in water. They were very hard to catch and even harder to beat due to the slipper mucus they produced. They were basically escape artists. However, with the water and the earth champions working in tandem, they had managed to join them and take the pair of fish down easily.

They were even the first to have returned.

”I recommend you lay your eyes on something actually freshly hunted. My champion has returned with a large plant like monster. Walker had needed his all around appraisal to figure out that it was a dormant monstrous pitcher plant. It would use sweet poison to attract prey to fall inside of it then close up so that it could dissolve them and pull nutrients out of them.

It was a very hard monster to fight in the hotter seasons but during the colder seasons, it went dormant and condensed nutrients. It became the ideal food.

”And my champion has brought back a slew of shadow jellyfish. Iʼm very proud of them. They have been working on their shadow thread creation and finally managed to build a net to catch them. You know the shadow jellyfish are very hard to pull from shadows and ideal to melt down in to soups and stocks. Itʼs too bad that they are so rare.

Luckily, they travel in groups of a hundred.” The jellyfish that Mordant pointed out were small and hard to differentiate from shadows. Yet, Walker could indeed see them when he focused his senses.

”Midnight should be along any second now. I think she will have a nice variety. I just hope that she did not overdo it.” Walker spoke out loud while thinking and was no sooner finished saying it than Midnight had walked in to the room prancing along happily. She looked at Walker and he could tell that she wanted him to come down and take a look. Of course he obliged.

His eyes widened as he looked at everything. He knew that she had gone out to hunt but did not expect the vegetables and other items. He quickly began pulling things from the spatial treasure while storing away the extras. He could feel Midnightʼs intentions when he would pull them out. The number of flying horned rabbits increased to over sixty of them.

Most were not even defeated by her and had been partially crushed by other things.

When Walker found the flying cloud alligators, he was stunned. These were the other things that had crushed the flying horned rabbits. They were a mystery to him since they had not been something he had seen before. When he used his all around appraisal he was shocked to see what it said.

ʼFlying cloud alligator

This is a very elusive and often peaceful monster. They will eat once a month and blend in with the clouds. They are often attacked by large groups of flying horned rabbits in an attempt to defeat the weaker of the species for food.

They have a very unique desire to fly which over thousands of years caused them to change their affinity by force to wind and water instead of water and earth like their distant relatives, the giant swamp alligators. They are extremely tough until cooked, then their meat releases very high light elemental mana that becomes trapped in their scaly skin.

Their wings are ideal for crafting tough but light armor.ʼ

”You managed to get seven of these? Very good!” Walker was impressed. He could tell that some had been paralyzed and then sneak attacked by Midnight with her flame wrapped claws. On top of that, he also pulled the fruits, the strange turnips, and some of the grasses that Midnight had gathered. He knew that she had gotten everything for a roast which was one of her favorite things.

”Just get a fire going for me, a big one. I am going to cook up something amazing. Also, go get Su, I will need her help.” Walker rolled up his sleeves to the shock of the royal dragons.

”You are planning to cook? Why?” Rise was the most shocked out of all of them.

”Can you not cook your own meals? Wait, can any of you cook? Ignus at least has to be able to with his control of flames. It would only make sense.” Walker wasnʼt trying to insult them but he was genuinely confused and shocked as well. They were royal dragons but should have some basic skills.

”Itʼs just as you said, with the control of flames I shall cook. Let me show all of you my skills. I can control the fires for you. Just take note of a longer lived ancient dragon who will guide you, our youngest member.” Not wanting to be seen as weak, Ignus jumped in with a hottie attitude. Walker was slightly worried but knew seeing Ignus control flames would actually be very enlightening.

”Then we will cook. If anyone else can help join in. Eating is great for bonding but making something together is going to add to the taste. My mother taught me that when I could barely walk across a kitchen.” The atmosphere of the entire royal dragon court was flipped on its head in that instant.
