The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1942 Responsible Skadi

Skadi didnʼt think that was likely. Skadi didnʼt know anything about group battle tactics, so how could she know whose approach was the better one?

Besides, she had enough troubles of her own, trying to keep the hatchlings from using her as a pillow for nap time. She didnʼt need to get all worked up about other things.

But the young Forest Lord did have a new responsibility here.

Her form of nature magic was meant to make things grow, and to alter a forest so that it could take care of itself. And in the Tiny World that translated to helping the Nature Priestesses with the gardening work.

It was a lot of fun, they got to practice adding mana to magical plants, and making the food grow just right for harvest, and even trying to improve the quality of some of the lower grade plants, so that they could be used as both food and reagents.

There wasnʼt much more that a Forest Lord could ask for.

The job even came with unlimited snacks.

Compared to how it was at home, where she lost out on all the good things, and her mother never let her grab resources for herself, this was paradise. They didnʼt even mind when she wanted to eat a Rare Grade flower before lunch.

They just let her do it, and then they spent a little time helping the plant regrow, so that there would be another one in a few days.

One thing that she had noticed was how fast her power level was growing now that the curse of the runt was removed from her. Her growth rate was far beyond anything that a Forest Lord could usually hope for, as if she was making up for lost time.

But more than that, she had already overtaken where her siblings were when she left.

So, didnʼt that mean that being with Karl was actually better than staying at home, even if she was the favourite?

Sister Cara claimed that it was a buff granted by the nature of Chaos, but Skadi didnʼt believe that. She didnʼt like it when things progressed in a less than ordered fashion, so it was almost certainly not the fault of chaos that she was growing faster.

She thought that it was more likely to be the stable nature of the Tiny World, where everything was in its proper place, and everything had a schedule.

Even at home, they didnʼt have this good of a schedule, they foraged to find the good things to eat in the forest daily.

But here, someone just collected them and used a skill to make them taste even better.

As she contemplated just what was causing everything to get better, Skadiʼs mental timer went off. Meal time was half over, which meant it was time to stop daydreaming and finish her food so that she could join the other healers for magic practice.

She had an epic grade area heal over time spell. It was her only healing spell, and it was designed to work best on plants, but it also worked on everything else.

So, she trained it with the healers.

Cara suspected that she actually knew the perfect way to get their resident nature lover to progress to the peak of Immortal Rank as soon as possible. All she had to do was find a slightly wilted Supreme Ranked plant and place it somewhere on the usual maintenance route, and Skadi would not rest until she had found a way to make the plant recover.

Skadi immediately sensed the badger plotting against her, but she couldnʼt think of a way to stop her.

She just hoped that it wasnʼt an impossible to repair plant, because she knew that she would nearly die of frustration having to look at a wilted plant every day. It was practically torture, surely someone would stop her before she did something that awful, right?

Thor patted the Forest Lord on the head. ”If she picks one that simply canʼt be healed, I will just eat it so that you donʼt have to look at it anymore. Iʼm all about practical solutions.”

And if it wasnʼt edible, and it wasnʼt an Alchemy resource, then it was a weed, and weeds got pulled.

He was not going to have his sweetest sister corrupted by pure rage.

As expected, the moment that they were done eating, the Elves were asleep on the grass. That was actually a fine place to sleep, the others did it all the time, and Yewan was also napping next to the grill. But Karl had Opal send them all back to their rooms for a proper rest before they were called back to training.

If they werenʼt moved, they would be up at the crack of dawn, either because of the sunlight, or because of the cooking next to them.

It was better to let them sleep in the Guild House.

And soon, because the hatchlings plus Thorʼs kids were all sizing them up, deciding whether Elves were good pillows or not.

And the answer was likely to be yes.

Even a smooth rock that was flat enough to rest your head on was an appropriate pillow to them, so obviously the Elves would pass the test.

Opal laughed at the thought that there was something warm, soft and smooth that a dragon would not use as a good place to nap. Even if they knew that they werenʼt supposed to be there, it was still fair game when they ran out of energy.

And they were still doing that, despite having grown past their initial hatchling phase.

It was one of their more endearing qualities in Opalʼs eyes. That energy to just go until you dropped, and then wake up and go some more, trying to learn and see everything.

She sent the Elves away to the rooms that she had made for them in the main house in the Tiny World, and then returned to her usual evening activities.

Writing screenplays for her next show.

This series was already becoming a hit in the New Home Merchant Clan, and they were only three episodes into the latest tales of Thor the brave.
