"I-isn't this the legendary Thunderstorm Bear!?"
The Old Man exclaid.
Fein looked at the one examining Voli. A white hair that reached his waist, and what was worth noting was despite his apparent age, The old man has so lean and explosive muscles that can only be gained through years of effort.
"Old Man, how did you know that?"
The Old Man looked at with wonder. "You can call Albert, I'm studying monsters and beasts. I'm quite knowledgeable about their various characteristics."
My ears perked up after hearing about his profession. After all, soone who studies monsters should be strong. Because you had to fight monsters and analyze their characteristic. Obviously, this old man called Albert should have plenty of experience when facing monsters.
I looked at the old man with excitent. Because it happened that I would have to face monsters on my next journey. Undoubtedly, it would be a huge help if soone like Albert would teach one thing or two about his experiences. It might save from so troubleso situations and increase my chances of survival in the Monster World Secret Realm. So I activated my probe on him. My probe had evolved after I was promoted to the A level that now I can see the abilities as long as the target's degu capacity doesn't exceed by two realms.
Albert the Old Max
Race: Human
Degu Amount: C
STR: S
AGI: S
END: S
Abilities: Muscle Enhancent, Physique Enhancent, Explosive Muscles, Ghost Move.
I was astonished by his stats. Although he is only C Rank, his strength and speed are even stronger than mine. Furthermore, his abilities are also related to his physique. If he goes all out he can even contend with average S-ranked degu users. No wonder he has those muscles.
"If it's possible can I chat with you for a while longer? Because it happened that I would like to know more about monsters" I asked him straightforwardly.
Albert looked at with doubt apparent on his face. "But aren't you a beast tar? A person who could ta even the Legendary Wind Bear should be a high-level one."
'Oh boy if he only knew'
What Albert said is reasonable. But if he only knew the process of how I accidentally tad Voli he might doubt the aning of life. So, I decided to keep this matter to myself. Though, beating Voli in the battle is also a huge factor in successfully taming him. After all, no matter how awful my potion is. A legendary beast would only submit to soone stronger than them or soone who could beat the shit out of them. Furthermore, Voli hasn't fully grown yet so his aversion to following soone should not be that high.
"I only tad Voli with my strength and a little bit of luck, not by so professional knowledge" I decided to tell him half-truths.
Hearing my answer, Albert nodded his head with understanding. It's not uncommon to ta a beast using violence or strength. In fact, wild beasts and animals don't have that much difference except for their strength and intelligence. Wild beasts that were influenced by degu energy are far more intelligent and stronger than their counterpart. But that doesn't an that they would lose their instinct.
"Then I don't have an issue sharing to you my experience and so practical knowledge. But in exchange, you had to allow to study the characteristics and behavior of your beast," Albert looked at Voli with a burning gaze.
Voli who was being looked at with a weird gaze snorted, and made a shooing motion on his face.
Albert had an amused face after seeing Voli's response, he touched his chin as if thinking. "It seems that the theory is true, Higher level beast IQ is comparable to that of nine years old child or even better."
Looking at the perverted gaze of Alber, I couldn't help but shudder. Such a geezer has actually S combat prowess!?
*Sigh*
You can't really judge a person solely by their appearance. In my past life where looks reign supre, people often make mistakes like this. People of my generation beca so materialistic that if you are ugly your value is good as shit. Well, it's different though if you are capable. At least you still had a place in society.
"Let's go, I can't wait to roam around the city."
I patted Voli, who understood the gesture so a weird scene was created.
The scarred - face guard had an amused face and says. "A wild beast lining up with humans obediently, what a rare occurrence."
"Well, it looks like it won't be rare in the future." Albert who was next to in the queue added.
I chuckled at their antics.
After two minutes of waiting in the line. It was finally our turn.
"It seems that it's ti to say our goodbye." Simon who was busy inspecting the carriage looked at with a smile.
"Well, it looks like it would be a long ti before we can see each other again." A smirk made its way to my face.
Simon shook his head and turn around while driving the carriage. "Don't die on !"
After all of that inspection. The guard let us pass after making sure that we don't have so shady items on us.
"So where do we go first??" Albert turned his head towards .
I placed my hand on my chin as a habit and started thinking.
My appointnt with Lucius was still one week away. It seems I need to settle here first and wait. And by the way, get familiar with this kingdom first. After all, this kingdom would prove helpful to because it has a popular marketplace where trades in all walks of life are happening daily.
'It's decided then.'
"Let's find an inn first and show around the place," I told him with my usual poker face.
Albert looked at speechlessly. "With your confident face, I thought you were familiar with the place. It seems that I need to act as a guide for now."
Albert let out a sigh.
