The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1196: Cara’s Obstacle Course

Button’s smile turned calculating, and the Elf sighed.

”You know that you just volunteered for an entire day of playing whatever strange games she can come up with, right?”

Karl winked at the caretaker. ”It’s not a problem. We’re here to relax, have fun, and perhaps build a bit more spiritual strength to help reach the Mythic Rank more quickly.

That is all that we’ve got planned for the day.

Even if we spend hours playing in the water, or running through the woods, it’s not a problem.”

The Elf laughed. ”When Ophelia and Sister Lotus come to visit, it’s so much easier. That bear is spectacular at keeping them both in line. Do you know when they’ll be able to visit again?”

”Not much longer. The Tiny World is tied to my location, right now. And I had to head to another continent, so they’re home taking care of business right now. Once we return, I’m certain that Lotus will demand to come back and see everyone here.

They have Thor and Tessa to keep them entertained, plus all the crafting specialists at the house.” Karl explained.

Button nodded eagerly. ”Sister Lotus told us all about the bunnies, and the fluffy Gargoyles. Maybe the next time that I have days off, I can go visit?”

Her pleading eyes immediately made Dana soften, and Karl petted the little dragon’s head.

”If we’re around the house in Zilaz, where the bunnies and the fluffy Gargoyles are, it shouldn’t be a problem. But if you’re going to go visit them, you might get snapped up for lessons.

We’ve got dozens of blue dragons at the Guild Houses now, and they do daily school lessons for all our younger members.

Don’t think that just because you’re visiting, you won’t have to learn.” Karl teased.

Button extracted a stick from her hair, and Karl realized that she had tucked a pencil into a braided section that he had assumed was just tangled.

”I am always ready to learn. My sister taught me.

But, do you know what we should do today? Cliff diving!

There is a great spot over there, where we can jump off and then swim.” Button suggested.

Karl was about to respond when Tian came into the Tiny World, looked around, and then settled down on Dana’s lap.

”Did you find out what you wanted to know?” Karl asked the baby fox.

Tian nodded happily. [Yes, I understand what it is that sets holy and Unholy Magic apart. My work there is done, and Cara is nearly finished. She’s just making a list of traps and obstacles that she wants you to make for the treasure hunt.]

Cara poked at Karl’s mind. [It’s going to be glorious. But we don’t have much time. Now that the killing effect is beginning to fade, the Giants are on their way here. I felt their magic probing the entrance to the space, so they know for sure that the effect was in this area.

I don’t think that they found the separate space yet, but you can see it just standing there, so we might have to move right quick before they arrive.

But not before you finish making this stuff.]

If the Giants were coming to investigate the loss of the suppression effect, they would surely send Mythic Ranked Titan Clan members, so Karl wasn’t sure what Cara thought that they could accomplish with an obstacle course type trial.

Karl used [Earth Manipulation] to carve stones to make the requested effects, and then chuckled as he saw that the last item on the list was a self recharging mana crystal to cause the effects to reappear on a timer.

Tian and Button were chasing each other around the beach as Karl finished working, and Dana relaxed in the sun, letting breakfast settle before they got active for the morning.

Karl passed the completed items into Cara’s space, and the Chaos Badger began to place everything to her satisfaction.

[Alright, one more spell and we’re all done. You need to come outside for a minute, so that your Tiny World doesn’t interfere with my plans.] Cara insisted.

”I will be right back. Cara needs assistance.” Karl whispered, then shifted back to the other world to see what Cara had done.

There were twenty different kinds of Golems, all sorts of magical plants, a hundred or so random magical items, and a bunch of illusionary monsters. The world was filled with dangers and rewards, but Cara was waiting by the exit for Karl to step outside.

”Alright, what is your plan?” Karl asked.

[Well, if I’m right, then once I use this skill, your contribution will make rewards respawn one day after they’re claimed. But as a random new reward. The same with the monsters and Golems.

It’s a good thing that you got that Epic Golem Spell, it wouldn’t be the same without it.] Cara explained.

{New Racial Skill Learned} [Chaotic Zone] Creates a System Linked training ground for a maximum of one hour per caster Rank.

That skill sounded suspiciously simple for what Karl knew that the Badger had in mind.

Then, she smirked at him and cast the spell on the entrance to the Failed Immortal’s Tiny World.

The portal narrowed to a pinprick for a moment, then reopened as a shimmering blue Trial Instance entrance.

[VICTORY! I taught the new place the rule of Chaos, and with all that Undead Energy and the Unholy Rule already there, it really did make a new space.

This will be so much fun. We can make Trial Towers, and Dungeons, and sparring spaces, and self replenishing gardens, and an infinite source of baby dragons...] Cara rambled.

That sounded like it might actually get him in real trouble.

Where did she plan to get enough dragon eggs to stock an instance?

She couldn’t have the ones from the Tiny World, at least not all of them.

But Karl had other concerns of a more immediate variety. They were not going to be alone for long, as either the change to the space or the reduction in the Suppression Effect had drawn a huge number of Mythic Ranked Titan Clan Giants to their location, and they had brought an entire army of Totems with them.
