Chapter 195: 195: Combo Strike

'Slash'

The lonely bladed mantis didn't have a slight clue of how it died because it didn't expect that its prey would come out of its own shadow before slicing it to death.

'Thud'

The two meters long green-coloured mantis lifelessly fell to the ground.

…..

In the distance,

'Looks like I got worried for nothing. With his strength, he could easily go against the low-level rank 5 spirit beasts, not to mention a low-level rank 4 spirit beast.'

Beck, who finally caught up to Lucas, saw that Lucas had already killed the Lonely bladed mantis and shook her head.

'But I still wonder why he was in such a hurry to kill it.'

Beck didn't understand the reason for Lucas' anxiousness. Nevertheless, she walked towards him to ask about it.

'Phew..it was much easier than I thought.'

As for Lucas, he heaved a sigh of relief as everything went according to his plan.

'Ding,

The host killed a rank 4 Lonely bladed mantis and gained 100 sovereign points.

'Ding,

Detected that the host can sacrifice the second spirit beast for his general knight rank. Do you want to sacrifice it?

Finally, the system notifications came to his head, which, of course, he nodded his head.

'Ding,

Analyzing and modifying the skills into knight's skills.

'Ding,

Please select a single skill from the list below.

1) Crosscut has been modified into X slash.

2) Combo strike has remained the same.

3) Green flash has been modified into Knight's flash.

…

…

Soon, a list of skills appeared in front of Lucas and without wasting any time, he directly chose 'Combo strike' because that's the reason why he chose the Lonely bladed mantis.

Other than this skill, the rest of the skills were all either low-level or mediocre, making the other knights give up on it as a sacrificial spirit beast.

'If not for my ability to select the skill I want from the sacrificed spirit beast, I would have simply killed it.'

Lucas closed his eyes as he enjoyed the light falling on him from the heavens as he gained a new skill.

'What? He is getting a new skill?'

Beck, who was walking towards Lucas, was shocked to see that Lucas was receiving another skill.

'Don't tell me he can sacrifice two spirit beasts every time he breaks through to the new rank.'

When she thought about this possibility, everything made sense to her.

'However, how is this possible? Is it because of his system?'

Beck could only think of the system in Lucas' head because it was a mysterious existence of unknown origins.

'Sigh…I wonder who created the systems and how they were able to put them in our heads.'

Even though the systems were helping them, Beck could not help but worry about the systems in their heads as they knew little to nothing about them.

'More importantly, what do they want from them?'

This was not the first time she thought about the system's origins; however, she could not get any answers from the system about its origins.

In the end, she could only shake her head in disappointment.

"What happened, Beck? You looked worried about something."

Soon, Lucas gained his new skill and walked towards Beck before asking her after seeing the expression on her face.

"It's nothing, young master."

Beck shook her head as she didn't want her young master to worry about the system's origins too.

Soon, she changed the topic by asking, "So, what are our plans?"

"Since I already became a General knight, let's focus on taming a few spirit beasts. Our town needs them."

Lucas felt it was a lot better to have more spirit beasts compared to the humans to fight by his side. 

Moreover, when Beck has a sovereign rank talent in the beast taming, it would be a waste not to make use of it.

"So, are we going deeper into the earl grounds this time?"

After seeing the battle prowess of Lucas for the past few days, Beck felt as long as they worked together, they could easily take care of the rank 5 spirit beasts in the earl grounds.

Moreover, Lucas said that he had a few trump cards to deal with multiple rank 5 spirit beasts and he was continuously urging her to enter deeper into the earl grounds.

However, Beck said that they should enter deeper only after he became a tier 1 general knight.

Since Lucas is now a general knight, she could not keep her promise.

"Let's go and find some good spirit beasts for you. Also, keep an eye on any lynx type spirit beast, I need them."

Lucas informed Beck about his skill [Lynx master] already and he was already keeping an eye on it.

Maybe he used up all his luck, from the moment he received this skill, he didn't find a single lynx type spirit beast, making him bitterly sigh.

'Before I go back, I have to find at least one lynx type spirit beast.'

This was the goal he set for himself while they entered deeper into the earl grounds to search for some good spirit beasts for Beck.

....

In the Alverton firmament.

In the institution for beastmasters.

"Did you select who needs to enter the Barren firmament for that girl?"

An old man asked three middle-aged men standing in front of him.

"Headmaster, we have not only selected the students but we also completed all the procedures to send them to the Barren firmament."

One of the middle-aged men respectfully replied to the old man as he asked, "But, why should we wait for one month to go there?"

"Sigh…even though you became old, you are as impatient as ever."

The old man shook his head as he replied, "We need that item to escape Heaven's wrath and it is scheduled to come into our hands within a month."

"..."

The middle-aged man got embarrassed and remained silent without saying anything.

"Anyway, I don't want you to fail this mission of recruiting that girl. If she refuses to join our institution, just make her sleep for eternity."

"Yes, headmaster."

The three middle-aged men nodded their heads with smiles on their faces.
