The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1818 Creation Aura

”You hide well. We didnʼt even notice that you were here until you made a Supreme Ranked weapon. The Elders of the Pack noticed, and called the Pack Leader so he could get first dibs on the item if it was something that suited him.”

Rue laughed. ”Well, I can certainly make one that suits him. However, the ones that Iʼve already made are for the ladies of the Guild. Gifts to celebrate their advancements. I will start making items for the rest of the Guild soon, and that will naturally start with the Pack Leader. And yourself as well, Clan Leader. I understand that the Darklight Host and the New Home Merchant Clan have a tight alliance, and it wouldnʼt do to make you wait when Supreme Ranked craftsmen are so rare.”

”And thatʼs exactly why the appearance of a newly created Supreme Ranked item within the Guild House caught the attention of the others. The barriers likely kept the others in the store from noticing, but theyʼre not set to block the senses of the Darklight Host members.”

Rue realized what had happened. She had thought that this room was fully shielded, to keep the residual shockwaves and energy pulse from affecting the outside world. But it was open to the perceptions of the Guild. So, even with the fluctuations contained to the room, they would still sense it.

In the future, she would ask Tian if there was somewhere even more secure for them to make items that they actually wanted or needed to keep a secret.

If Karl could make a place like this Guild House, he could certainly make a private crafting space separate from everything else.

Of course, if she had just asked, Tian would have taken her to one of the many such spaces they had, so that outside interference didnʼt distract the workers. It was just an oversight on his and Karlʼs part that they had been doing it in the main room of the crafting section and not somewhere more private.

Rueʼs words had caught Nerissaʼs attention. ”You speak as if you have the materials to make a number of Supreme Ranked weapons. Did you manage to salvage something from the attack? I had heard that they looted everything that was left in your compound.”

Rue shrugged. ”I had some things with me, as is natural. But mostly, itʼs that Karl taught me young Mister Tianʼs [Earth Manipulation] skill, and that let me create the basic core of the weapon without the need to farm and harvest Supreme Ranked metals. Itʼs not perfect, but with the right buffs, I can still make high-quality weapons with minimal farming. All that I need are the elemental stones, and some of the rare materials that [Earth Manipulation] wonʼt make. But if youʼre willing to accept strictly buffs that can be done with stone and metal items, then Iʼm much less limited.”

”Of course it was Karl. If anyone was going to cause this level of casual disruption of social norms, it had to be the Avatar of the World Dragon.”

Karl leaned over to Tian. ”Do you think that she means that as a compliment or not?”

”Fifty-fifty. She doesnʼt look too mad about it.”

The little fox giggled, and Nerissa smiled. It was clearly an insult, but one that Karl wouldnʼt actually be upset about. Because he knew perfectly well that his actions disrupted the world around him, and he simply didnʼt care.

Nerissa winked at the little fox. ”I think that nobody will be mad, even if the options are greatly limited. Getting Peerless Grade Immortal items is already exceedingly rare. The chance to obtain a Supreme Ranked relic is a once-in-a-lifetime existence for most Immortals.

Thatʼs how infrequently theyʼre traded.

Even those who have the skills usually only make items for themselves and their direct disciples.

So, if Miss Rue wants to sell off a few to support the Guild, youʼre already far ahead of the other Guilds and Clans on this continent, who would never dare to do such a thing. The item would be held as a precious relic to bolster the power of their future generations of leadership.

Especially for the combat sects.

Their members die on an alarmingly frequent basis.”

Rue nodded. ”Theyʼre the ones dragging down the average lifespan of Immortals. Most of them still allow contests to the death to decide which of the top disciples in the region get precious resources.

Theyʼre insane.

But they do turn out highly skilled combatants, so people keep doing it, even knowing that they have as much of a chance of being killed in a tournament as they do of ever making it to Peak Immortal.

And thatʼs not even counting all the ones that will be killed while out trying to gather resources on their own.”

Tian laughed, ”Killed while out collecting resources? Nope, canʼt imagine how that could happen. Never saw any of their disciples. Weʼve been out here alone for days.”

Nerissa laughed, and Rue ruffled his hair. ”Your brothers have been teaching you bad habits, havenʼt they?”

That made Cara laugh. It was one hundred percent his sisters who had taught Tian that line.

Thor would never utter a bald faced lie like that, and Hawk didnʼt really speak to outsiders. Leo might, he had a sense of humour. But he was also their newest brother.

The three Supremes all turned to the giggling badger. ”Right, itʼs probably his sisters. How does that happen anyhow? Arenʼt the testosterone-driven ones supposed to be the most violent?” Rue asked.

”Thor is a herbivore, Hawk is antisocial, Tian is too fluffy to be threatening, and Leo is too young. But Sister Rae is one of the eldest, and sheʼs highly fond of stabbing people to collect their corpses,” Cara offered.

”So, you blame the spider?”

”Actually, I think that Iʼm the one who told someone that we hadnʼt seen the members theyʼd come looking for, so this time itʼs probably my fault. But I wasnʼt the one who killed most of them.

Actually, I think the incident in question might have been because they attacked Dana, so itʼs still one of the sisters. We havenʼt really wandered the wilderness much, but the people have been incredibly rude.”

Rue nodded. ”Thatʼs how it is. I will tell you more about it later.”
