The Strongest Beast Tamer - 147 Absolute Annihilation

Lachlan realised how stupid the question he asked was and went silent. He nodded towards Burnie before they all ran back towards the Explorer’s Guild build, where everyone was currently being stationed, preparing for battle.

Walking inside the building Lachlan had never seen such a crowded place, it was filled to the brim with people, all having different personalities; some nastier than others. In the corners a few fights were going on, the organisers weren’t doing anything about it, just leaving the fight to go on.

Reaching the couch Lachlan sat down with the rest of his group, they were all rather relaxed about the whole situation, unfazed by the whole things. Except for Simon who was brimming with excitement, a wide smile across his face as his fists were tightened.

Lachlan knew what he wanted but decided to make sure anyway. “Simon, do you want to go against the intelligent beast by yourself? You should be able to easily do it not after our boost in strength.”

“Of course I am, don’t interrupt it either, I’m confident I won’t need any help,” Simon responded with confidence, his eyes were shining from the mere thought of going up against the intelligent beast. “This time, it’ll be an even fight where I can show off my solo battle skills, unlike that fight against the dragon.”

“Oh, seems you’re all pretty confident,” A masculine man said as he sat down next to Simon, he had a bald head and wasn’t wearing any top, exposing his muscular body. “But you have to remember that they’re an intelligent beast, not something you come across often. But don’t worry, I’ll be able to protect you since among everyone here I’m the only one to have survived after fighting an intelligent beast.”

The man attempted to wrap his arm around Georgia who took hold of his arm tightly. Increasing her grip the man began to squirm in his spot, catching the attention of everyone around the couches. Some began to laugh while others took out their phones to record.

“So the so-called invincible explorer can’t handle the grip of a young girl, that’s hilarious, it’s what he deserves for being such a pervert.”

“Yeah, I reckon she should just break that guy’s arm because aside from boasting, he doesn’t do anything else, no need for him to have it.”

“Whoa, that’s pretty harsh, but I agree, she should just tighten up a little bit more until she makes him scream. That’ll be something to share, will certainly be something funny to show others.”

Hearing the outside chatter the group was able to quickly determined that the masculine man was certainly not so welcomed in the community. Rather, it seems some people want him to experience a great deal of pain.

Lachlan sighed. “That’s enough Georgia, there’s no need to break his arms just yet, wait till after the fight to do it.”

“Fine, although I don’t see how he was even able to survive against an intelligent beast, he just doesn’t seem like he could do it,” Georgia said as she let go of the man’s arm.

He quickly got up and scurried away, holding onto his arm as he tried holding back his tears. Looking back he felt as though he just ran into a bunch of monsters, he shouldn’t have shown off in front of them.

“So you’re the group that came from the floating island huh,” Another person came up to them but unlike the masculine man, this one seemed more formal. He was well dressed in semi-formal wear even though they were currently going out to battle.

“Don’t worry about the clothes, they’re made out of some beast skin and fur so although they may not look like it they’re certainly thought,” The man sat down. He had long, flowing blonde hair, blue eyes and a few scars. “I’m the one in charge of this Explorer’s Guild building, it’s a pleasure to meet you, the name’s Blain.”

——————————————————–

Lachlan wouldn’t have thought that the one in charge was so mediocre, the only reason Blain is in the position that he’s in is due to him being a guerilla warfare expert. Otherwise, just about half the people in the room would be a match for Blain.

Simon nodded towards Blain’s self-introduction while the others acknowledged his presence with a wave. It became a bit silent before Flynn decided to break the ice. “Yes, it’s a pleasure meeting the one in charge of this branch, the name’s Flynn.”

Shaking hands it slowly went around the group, briefly introducing themselves to Blain before going back into silence. Blain stood up began to walk away. “Do remember, the battlefield is above a city so please don’t do anything too damaging.”

“Don’t worry about that,” Simon said with his cocky voice. “These beasts won’t even be able to handle a fraction of our power.”

“Well I hope you aren’t just arrogant,” Blain said just before he walked up to join the organisers.

It didn’t take long before everything was sorted and everyone was led up top. Using earth control they made a temporary path that could fit everyone in it, leading straight up to the surface just slightly off from above the city.

Getting outside Lachlan and his group swiftly went up to the island to get their weapons and drop Flynn off, it only took a few seconds but the moment they returned they were greeted by the sight of a bloody battlefield. Groups explorers were working together in eliminating one beast at a time, slowly making their way through the horde.

The beasts roared in anger and began to surround the group of explorers, Lachlan and his group swiftly made their way down. Reaching the ground they showed the explorers what real strength is; they began to completely slaughter all the beasts.

Their weapons slicing through them like it was nothing. Lachlan was doing especially well against the larger beasts, his broadsword slicing through their necks, sending heads flying as he made his way through the horde.

“I’m going to search for that intelligent beast!” Simon shouted before summoning Wildfire and taking off.

Everyone began to summon their beasts, increasing their efficiency in killing off the horde. Bears were fighting against other bears, deer against deer and more. It was brutal, to say the least, but with the help of Lachlan and his group, they managed to do it without any casualties.

The group was quickly surrounded by people, extremely excited with bright smiles. Lachlan and his group were swiftly picked up off the ground and thrown into the air, the crowd cheering.

“Yeah! Good fighting!”

“Great work!”

One of the people, however, saw this as an opportunity. Lachlan’s broadsword was stabbed into the ground, out in the open while Lachlan himself was currently being thrown in the air.

A thief lunged towards the broadsword and pulled with all his might, veins popping out from his skin as his face went red. His cheeks were puckered up as his face scrunched up; he continued to grunt as he tugged.

What the thief didn’t know was that after the first second everyone had noticed him, it was the masculine man from before. As he continued to pull the broadsword he began to shout, “Come on! You’re a weapon only worthy of being used by me!”

Lachlan lightly chuckled as he walked up to the man and flicked him in the head. Grabbing hold of his broadsword he took it out in one fluid motion, as though it was weightless to him. Lachlan then walked up to the masculine man and patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry, you’ll eventually reach my level of strength; it might take a few hundred years but don’t give up.”

Burnie walked out of the crowd and up to Lachlan at this moment. “Hey Lachlan, just wondering but could I give it a try? I want to see how difficult it really is.”

“Ha, sure, everyone can give it a try,” Lachlan said as he stabbed the broadsword back into the ground.

Burnie walked up to it and grabbed onto the hilt tightly. He got up close to the sword and bent his knees; using all his strength he attempted to lift it, his face turned red as he grunted. Letting go he took a couple of steps back. “What the hell is up with this sword? It doesn’t even budge a millimetre when I use all my strength on it.”

“Maybe it’s because you don’t have that much strength, leave it to the big man to pull it out,” A bodybuilding looking guy walked out next and took hold of the hilt. But even he was no match for the requirements, he looked towards his bodybuilder buddies. “Come over here and help me!”

Bodybuilders surrounded the sword and all grabbed onto the hilt with one hand. Their other hand was grabbed onto by other bodybuilders like a rope. Pulling with all their might the bodybuilders believed that they would be able to do it. But their efforts came to no avail.

More and more people began to help, attempting to pull the sword out of the ground while Lachlan just watched in silence; not giving them any reason as to why they aren’t able to make it even budge.

…

Nearby in the surrounding woods, Simon was seen flying overhead, his eyes peeled open as he analysed every part of the ground. Searching for an intelligent beast to fight.

Sensing something coming he twisted his body, a stone flew past his head at the speed of a bullet. Looking around Simon managed to find the source of the attack, a humanoid beast that was staring right at Simon; gesturing towards Simon to come at him.

“Well I’ll be damned, if it wants a fight I’ll give it a fight it’ll remember even after death,” Simon said as he ordered Wildfire to go down.

Reaching the ground Simon hopped off of Wildfire, he summoned his other tames at the same time. Although that was for an entirely different reason, he still wanted to fight against the intelligent beast without the help of his tames.

The intelligent beast stared at Simon for a couple of seconds, it’s scaly tail swayed behind it as its hands were being held behind its back. It looked similar to another beast they’ve seen before, the one that they met in Sydney. The Sobek.

“You’re quite brave for a human,” The Sobek said in a coarse voice. “Or you could just be incredibly stupid, you are a human after all; wouldn’t be surprised if it was both.”

“Holy shit, you can talk,” Simon was stunned, his face filled with awe at the discovery of an intelligent beast that can talk. Now he didn’t want to kill it, but rather, taking it back to the base and let Anne experiment on it.

“Of course I can talk, I’m an intelligent beast as you humans call us. We have the ability to learn your language, granted there wasn’t a need to. I was just curious about it,” The Sobek replied. “Also, I know what you’re thinking but no need to experiment on me. Every humanoid beast has the ability to talk, they just need to be trained and taught.”

“But don’t worry about all that, I know why you’re here. You want to fight me, so hurry up and come,” The Sobek said as it gestured for Simon to come at it, getting into a fighting stance.

‘Wait till the others hear about this’ Simon thought as he shot off from the ground, lunging towards the Sobek with his fist raised.
