The planning session ends up taking nearly four hours, since we continuously move to the arena to try out each plan we co up with. Whether that involves Emily and I debuffing and stacking up damage on the enemies with our ranged skills with Michael covering healing and support from his summons and Denise going in as the main attacker, myself and Denise going in for the attack with Emily debuffing and stacking up damage and Michael healing and bringing support with his summons, or even Emily working on distracting the enemies with her speed and what I have to admit are annoying attacks while the rest of us go all out in attacking.
I personally wouldve preferred so more plans of attack, but in the end, were all limited in our total number of skills at the mont, considering how new we are to being Guardians. And not to ntion that our team is only temporary.
See you again tomorrow? Denise says as I begin heading for the door. And I wave my hand back with a brief, Yep, before walking through the door and letting it shut behind . Then I head towards the closest exit to the building, because I really feel like moongazing right now.
I wonder if that particular habit of mine is because Im a blood lycan?
Either way, its very relaxing.
Im glad that we ended up deciding on the plan of and Denise being the frontline attackers with Emily debuffing and stacking damage and Michael healing and supporting rather than the first one. Mostly because it ans more EXP for . After all, itll an Denise and I are helping the most in the kills. Which also ans Ill be able to go solo again sooner.
It makes sense that theyd have on the frontline in battle though, seeing as I have the best offensive skills of the group. Even if they dont know that so of my success in fighting with the instructor guy was purely because of Predator IV.
I stretch my arms over my head right before reaching one of the exits which has a terminal scan next to it. After I finish stretching, I reach my hand down and insert so mana into the thing while also letting it scan my handprint before the door opens, letting out. And as soon as I step outside, I head straight onto the roof and over to my little place atop a tower that I found on the first night here.
I let out a sigh and collapse on the ground, just staring up at the full moon in the sky. One that Im quite grateful is always there, no matter what.
No ones really sure what happened to the moon after the Demonic Assaults began. Just that it has always been full no matter what ever since.
The other change the Demonic Assaults brought to the world didnt have such superfluous effects though. After all, it being impossible to leave or enter the planets atmosphere whenever a Demonic Assault is currently ongoing kind of made it so humanity couldnt just ditch Earth to go sowhere else when our magi-tech was theoretically capable of space travel.
Not that anyone could test it, I mutter before finding Tar appearing above to promptly land on my chest. Youre rather quiet.
Tars voice responds in my head instead of out loud despite him being here in person, Ive been trying to figure out a better way for you to retain your human genes intact.
My eyebrows climb at that statent.
Really? Thank you.
I look back up at the moon again.
In all honesty, the only thing I care about in regard to becoming a full blooded demon is how they will think about it. Allen, Cynthia, Belle, Arthur, the other orphans, and a few other friends I made back in Rothwell. The idea of losing my human genes themselves doesnt actually bother for so reason.
Thats probably because of your superior blood lycan genes, Tar says offhandedly, sounding slightly distracted. Blood lycans are the strongest demon of pride, so itd make sense for their instincts to be very prideful in their own race.
Huh. That kind of does make sense.
Certainly explains why Im not cracked up over this like other people normally would be. And a part of absolutely despises the idea of staying stagnant in my level just to remain half human.
That wouldnt work anyways, since then youd end up aging, and my father would try to force you into leveling up sohow, Tar says sothing that has my head shooting up to look at him without even seeming to realize what he said, him being so distracted right now. Because itd be a disgrace for a prince to be contracted to a forever Class I.
I gape at the tanuki as he continues staring ahead, his eyes flickering from left to right as if reading sothing.
The hell?
He finally turns his gaze to and asks, What?
You just drop that bomb on and simply ask What?
The tanuki looks genuinely confused for a mont before he mutters, Oh.
Yeah. Oh.
Well, I did say that Id like to be more open with you in the future, he says, sohow blowing that all off and returning to whatever he was staring at. Guess that future is now.
I snort.
Yeah. Guess so.
And in hindsight, it would make sense that a king wouldnt want an embarrassnt as a prince. But what would he be able to do? You fae arent very strong in the mortal plane, right?
Doesnt an he cant bribe another Guardian or a demon with an achievent or two to move against you, Tar says, his eyes still flickering. Although he wouldnt kill you. Not when I wouldnt be able to form another contract for a very long ti after your death. Long enough that it could beco a problem for my life span.
Oh. Well, thats a relief at least. He would just push into leveling.
In all honesty? I dont think I would be able to stop leveling even if I wanted to. Not with how our society is, what with the governnt being openly against Guardians who dont help society by fighting. Its how the Guardians living in Tier 3 cities end up there after all. And even then, theyre still forced to fight every couple months when a Demonic Assault does actually happen.
And I dont think my pride would let stop anyways.
I know, Tar mutters, thats why Ive been working with his majesty to find a way around you becoming fully demon. Or at least trying to find a way to hide it from the humans and demons if you do beco a full blooded blood lycan.
I blink in surprise.
Youve been working with the king?
Yes.
As weve been talking?
Yes.
About the king and his likely plans to entrap into leveling?
Ye- oh.
Yep. Hes been quite distracted.
Well, he cant hear us anyways, he blows it off a mont later.
I cant help but chuckle. Then I let out a sigh.
Such a pain this world is. But I guess the saying With power cos responsibility has so applications to it, right?
Although in this case its With power cos complications.
Tar just continues whatever hes doing, so I focus on the moon, just letting its soothing light, well, soothe .
