The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1341 Why It Is

Karl was finally beginning to relax, with the students all sent to their new dorms, and the teachers mostly off to settle themselves in as well.

The bunkers were empty now, though in need of cleaning. But that could wait until they replaced the lost supplies.

”Is this normal for your world? It sounds like this location should be one of the finest academies of the region, but theyʼre... so weak.” One of the rescued Demons whispered to Karl.

”This continent has a very low mana level, and itʼs only just beginning to recover from a downturn, where the planetʼs ley lines retreated below the surface. They truly are weaker than average, but the quality of their knowledge is quite impressive.” Karl explained.

The Obsession Demon didnʼt look convinced, but Dana had an explanation ready.

”Theyʼre somewhat the opposite of your group. You have latent ability, nearly as much as anyone on a Mortal Realm world can hope to obtain. But the Immortals kept you from learning to utilize it properly.

Here, the people are weak, but every demon can use at least one or two innate skills, and most can do much more.

I know that Karl promised to help you all get classes sorted out when we were finished here, and I see that heʼs gotten to most of you already. But the real limitation that the people of the Golden Dragon Nation have is that they donʼt have the power to make durable spells.

A Mythic Ranked being with proper training could shatter anything that they created with little more than a casual swat.

So, all they can do is stare in frustration, knowing that they have spells and skills to solve a problem, but not enough power to use them effectively.” She explained.

”Oh, that would be the worst. Knowing that there is nothing you can do is all the comfort that most of us in the cells ever had.” The demon realized.

Dana nodded. ”Iʼm glad you understand. Itʼs a frustrating time for them, but theyʼre all happy to get upgraded facilities on a level that only someone as powerful as Karl could make.

Now, theyʼll be good for some time.

I donʼt know how long it will be before the next wave of attacks start, but now that our planetʼs guardian has advanced to Legendary status, we might have a bit of a buffer.”

The Demons who had come from the Immortal Realm all shared concerned looks, which made Dana highly suspicious.

”What do you know that I donʼt?” She asked.

”You canʼt have Legends in the Mortal Worlds. It isnʼt possible, their mere presence will warp and alter the world.

If a Legendary Chaos Dragon remains here, there is no telling what will become of your world.

Best-case scenario, the world ascends to the Immortal Realms. Worst-case scenario, the backlash from the Fundamental Laws of the Mortal Realm colliding with the Legendʼs Nascent Divinity will tear the planet apart.” He explained.

”So, youʼre saying that now that the planetʼs guardian is a Legend, they can no longer effectively defend the world from invasion?” Dana asked.

”Exactly. They might be able to hide the world to prevent most of the invasions. But they canʼt be here in person for more than a few months or a year at a time. Itʼs the same when Legendary Heroes or their Avatars are summoned to a Mortal World.

They are on a timeline to complete their tasks, or something horrible will happen.”

Dana remembered that from the childrenʼs stories. Heroes always needed to complete their task in a hurry before the enemy gained the power to control the world, or some other urgent reason.

She had never considered that the mere presence of a Legend was enough to upset the balance of the world.

But her knowledge was from fairytales, which could hardly be called a complete historical record. At most, the sentiment of the story was likely to be correct, but all of the rest of it was long since lost to time, despite the efforts of the blue dragons.

”We are going to have to arrange something with her if she canʼt be on the planet all the time.

Sheʼs a Chaos Dragon, so sheʼs often hiding in the Chaos Plane, but she has responsibilities here, and a whole nation waiting on her requests.

Disappearing would cause great unrest.” Dana sighed.

”I thought that you were going to say it would cause Chaos.” The Demon replied with a smirk.

”If it would cause Chaos, she would have done it years ago.”

”So, what do we do now?” The elderly lizardfolk shaman asked, her face lined with worry.

”We wait. The Chaos Badger is still recovering from her fight, but after she is healed, she will be able to go speak with Supreme Lady Matilda. Surely, after all this time, she will have some sort of plan for the world she had been protecting for a hundred thousand years.” Dana replied.

The others looked shocked. ”It has been that long? Yes, she should have some failsafes in place to protect her territory. Though it is surprising that she hasnʼt raised any Immortals.”

Dana shrugged. ”I believe that she did at some point, but they left for the Immortal Realms. Only a few Immortals remained behind on this world, just enough to maintain the balance and stability behind the scenes.”

Fortunately, they hadnʼt lost any of them in this round of attacks.

”Then she might call some back from the Immortal Realm, right? Enough to keep this place safe from monsters like Oobleck?” The elder lizardfolk woman

asked.

Dana nodded. ”That is a possibility. Though, I doubt that it will be necessary. She has the ability to block portal openings from off world, even when she is in the Chaos Plane. We will have to wait and see”

The only one able to easily go visit Matilda was Cara, but the badger was currently resting in her space, covered in bandages and wounds that didnʼt want to heal. She would go soon, but with the instability of the Chaos Plane, she didnʼt want to do it when her life was still in danger.

Even the most Chaos attuned of creatures might still suffer from the nature of that place.
