The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1140: Lady Sapphire

Karl sent a Guild invite, then took out the book of [Golem Duplication] and immediately learned it.

The look on Sapphire’s face when the book vanished was priceless, but she still accepted the offer.

{Guild Member Added} Sapphire

{Champion Karl Offers Knowledge} Skill [Skill Book] will be transferred to the curious maiden Sapphire.

{Champion Karl Offers Knowledge} Skill [Eternal Lightning] will be transferred to the curious maiden Sapphire.

”There we go. The promised super exclusive skill. Only Blue Dragons and Thor have been able to learn it so far. You need very high affinity for both holy and lightning magic, and blue dragon breath is lightning.

The other skill allows you to make skill books of any skill that you know, similar to an Inscriptionist. The skill goes well with Runecrafting, as we already know the language, so we can do it much faster than others.”

Sapphire’s eyes glowed with divine favour, and the dragon laughed out loud.

”You know, I think I understand now why the dragon gods like you so much. You make no sense at all.”

The red dragon priestess nodded energetically. She had absolutely no idea what was going on, but she could feel the divine reaction to whatever Karl had done, so it had to have pleased the god of knowledge.

Karl focused for a moment and taught the [Golem Duplication] skill to Rae through her space, but teaching it back to Dana would have to wait until they were face to face again.

”I don’t suppose that someone would tell me what is going on? Does this affect the schedule to order the furniture for the orphanage?” The Red Dragon priestess asked.

Karl shook his head. ”Not at all. I will send a runner to order it all now and get the building stocked before the evening so you can move in.

I put furniture in many of the units with an illusion, but this building is still empty, and none of the others would be suitable for an orphanage’s setup as they are.

I just inducted the lovely Miss Sapphire into the Guild and taught her a unique skill for Blue Dragons.”

”A unique skill for blue dragons? How do you know something like that?”

”It’s actually an evolved form of the Refreshing Lightning Barrier that the Lightning Cerro have. If you help them evolve with holy magic, there is a chance that their skill will evolve as well. In Thor’s case, his did, and it’s highly compatible with the Blue Dragons.”

Sapphire huffed, and lightning crackled around her mouth before the [Eternal Lightning Barrier] formed.

”Then he taught me how to write skill books for any skill that I know, and the Goddess got really excited.” She added.

”What does that have to do with the Orphanage?” She asked, confused.

”Nothing. One of my Guild Members gave me a book of [Golem Duplication] and it reminded me to do all that other stuff.”

The Red Dragon shook her head. ”This Guild is a strange one, but I can tell already that it’s going to be an adventure for the children. Now, is this the building? I can see that working. How much renovation are we allowed to do to it?”

Karl shrugged. ”It’s made of Totem Ranked stone, so the changes that you are physically able to make are limited. But I don’t mind what you do to the interior. Repaint, change the flooring, put in new lights. Whatever works best for your situation.

I know that most of the orphans will want more light than this region normally has, but it should be good for helping them get to sleep when the cave is always dark.” Karl agreed.

The priestess smiled. ”You have a good point. We’re not going to be able to take down the walls if they’re that strong. But that should also make it quiet inside, unlike the wooden buildings in the sprawl, where you can hear people stomping from three floors away.”

Karl frowned in sympathy. That sounded truly horrible. Especially for a house full of children.

Karl led the way in, and the two dragons examined the interior of the building, which was designed to be singe worker apartments.

”Well, this is perfect. We don’t actually need the kitchen facilities in most of the units, as the kids are too young to cook for themselves. But I think that if we reorganize it, we can room one older child with the younger ones.

Right now, we’ve got them on rotating helper duties. But that could be changed to an assigned group to help with their studies and late night issues, like a need for snacks.

Well, when there are actually snacks in the house.

Most of the time, the orphanages are operating on the standard rice and beans diet, and that’s not really snack food.”

Karl chuckled. ”Oh, ye of little creativity. If you add a bit of spice, and then pan fry them, you can make excellent snacks with the leftovers.

At home, the church Acolytes made leftover balls to feed to the horses, but Lotus learned that you can save some for yourself and fry them into a spicy snack for later.”

”Green Dragon Acolyte or Silver?” The Red Dragon Priestess asked.

”Green, naturally. But I wouldn’t have thought that the silver dragon clerics were on that list.”

The two dragons chuckled. ”They get lost in their magical studies and exhaust themselves until they can’t walk. So, they like to have something to eat with them.”

”That makes sense. The Red Dragon Clerics seem like the ’We eat on a schedule’ sorts, and the Blue Dragons would lose their mind if someone brought snacks into the library, so they definitely have a meal schedule.” Karl joked.

”Sticky little acolyte fingerprints are the bane of our existence.” Sapphire agreed.

”Now, are all the suites like this?” The Red Dragon asked, bringing them back on track.

Karl shook his head. ”Only the first two floors. The top floor is larger suites with a second bedroom. But I know how the orphanages are always crowded, and I have an idea on how to use those well.”

Sapphire laughed. ”Just the fact that there are so many bathrooms will make the children cry in joy. Most orphanages have a boys and girls’ common bathroom and showers. If they’re lucky, they might have them on multiple floors.”
