Overlord Tamer:I Only Tame Bosses

Chapter 53: Chapter 53 System Update

”Illegal monster trafficking?” Oliver repeated while bringing a spoonful of food to his mouth.

”Yes. Have you ever encountered groups like that before?” Arnulf asked.

”Hmmm... I don’t think so. I’ve never seen any suspicious convoys.”

”If you ever do encounter them, try to be careful. According to the intel, they’ve been hiring members of the Five Scorpions to protect their business.”

”The Five Scorpions? So they still exist?” Irmine said in surprise.

She was very familiar with that name. In fact, almost every tamer from Arnulf and Irmine’s generation knew about the infamous group.

”Who are they?” Oliver asked with interest.

”They’re former tamers and dungeon hunters. Every member of the group was exiled from the guild after breaking its rules. Afterward, they gathered together and formed a new organization. Each of them carries a scorpion tattoo somewhere on their body. And before they were exiled, most of them were Rank S or Rank A tamers.” Arnulf explained.

”Hmmm... interesting,” Oliver muttered.

”I already know what you’re thinking, Oliver. But don’t get too excited and try fighting them alone. They’re criminals. Common sense doesn’t work on people like them.” Irmine warned him. She knew very well whenever her son became interested in something dangerous.

”What are you saying, Mum? Of course I wouldn’t do that,” Oliver replied innocently. Of course he was lying.

Deep inside, he was already curious about how strong he had become after training for five years, against former Rank S and Rank A tamers.

The family then continued eating together peacefully. But suddenly, Oliver stopped moving his spoon.

”Next month, it will officially be five years since Tamera passed away. I’m planning to decorate her tomb next month.” Oliver said quietly.

”That’s a wonderful idea, son. She’ll definitely be happy.” Irmine replied softly. Tears slowly welled in her eyes. Even after all these years, she still thought about Tamera every single night.

”I agree as well.” Arnulf nodded.

After finishing dinner, Oliver returned to his room. Compared to before, his room was now far larger and more spacious.

As he lay on his bed while thinking about everything they had discussed today, suddenly, a familiar notification sound echoed in his mind. A sound he had not heard for five long years.

[System Update Complete! Please check the system immediately.]

”Finally...”

Oliver immediately sat upright and rubbed both of his hands excitedly. Without hesitation, he accessed his status screen.

---

---

Oliver stared at the notification silently. Then, a wide grin slowly appeared on his face. After waiting for five long years, the system had finally returned.

Oliver immediately checked the new features. First, he looked at Dual Synchronization.

[Dual Synchronization - Synchronize with two monsters at the same time. The duration and restriction are based on the average Familiarity of both monsters.]

”Cool!” Oliver shouted. He immediately summoned all his monsters. Thanks to his spacious room, all of them could fit comfortably in their smaller forms.

”Guys, look at this! With this, I can combine with two of you at the same time.” Oliver said excitedly.

”That is really broken.” Husk muttered.

”I don’t care as long as I can become one with my Oliver.”

”Lets... synchronize!”

”Not now, Nyx. We’ll test it in a real battle. It will be much better that way.” Oliver replied. He then checked the next new feature.

Classes.

The moment he clicked it, a series of notifications instantly appeared before him.

[Crimson Striker Class Unlocked!]

[Carapace Blaster Class Unlocked!]

[Arachnomancer Class Unlocked!]

”What are all these classes?” Oliver muttered in surprise as he stared at the three newly unlocked classes.

[When the user achieves maximum Familiarity with a monster, a class related to that monster will be unlocked. Unlike Synchronization, which exerts excessive power for a limited period of time, Classes are different.]

[Classes allow the user to harness the power of boss monsters in a stable and controlled state. The duration is unlimited as long as the monster remains active.]

”Wow... this is amazing...” Oliver muttered with his mouth wide open. Without hesitation, he immediately tried one of the classes.

”Change to Crimson Striker Class!”

Suddenly, crimson aura covered his body just like before, but this time it felt far more stable and refined. However, the most noticeable change was his appearance.

His hair turned crimson red, while his attire also transformed into red-colored combat wear. His hair flowed as if constantly being pushed by wind, while crimson sparks flickered from its ends.

Looking at his current form, Oliver immediately remembered the battle against Auron and Aria years ago. It seemed this transformation was similar to the forms they used back then.

And honestly, he really liked it. He could feel power flowing endlessly through his veins. Excitedly, Oliver opened the class details.

”This is...insane.”

Oliver was truly amazed by the new Class feature. Before this, he could already use some of Husk’s skills without Synchronization, though with many limitations.

But now, with this class, he could harness Husk’s full abilities along with several newly added skills. He could clearly feel his combat capability increasing tremendously.

The stat boosts were also incredible. Every swing and punch now felt faster, sharper, and far more concentrated. And most importantly, there was no time limit.

Oliver could hardly wait to test it out in a real battle. At the same time, he was also curious about the other two classes and what kind of transformations they would give him.

”Let’s check the Super Rare card first that the system gave me. I seriously can’t wait anymore!”

The moment he looked at the card, Oliver became completely stunned.

”Is... is this really what I think it is? Did the system seriously give me this for free?!”

Oliver was utterly flabbergasted as he stared at the golden-colored card trembling in his hand.
