The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1053

Chapter 1053: Backlog Of Work

Within half an hour, Lotus was deposited back in the Tiny World, escorted by Remi, and Karl headed for the upstairs room.

He brought out the Haint and the Epic Guard for company, then took out an Elven Steel chest plate to do some runic work. Then, he stared at it in confusion. This was clearly not armour, or at least not effective armour.

Could it be for Rae to put over a leather base?

The spider laughed as Karl stared at the thin and flexible plates of metal with ornately decorated breast forms.

[It’s a decorative armour piece for Succubi. It’s meant to be worn in the bedroom, not the battlefield. Though, knowing Succubi, that is kind of the same thing.] Rae joked.

Well, if that was the case, Karl knew just what sort of enchantments he should put on it.

He got right to work planning runes for comfort, agility, stamina regeneration, mana regeneration and damage reduction.

It wasn’t a hard combination to make, and normally, it would be the base for some sort of much more grand effect. But for this particular piece, enhancing all of those aspects to the Totem Rank was precisely what the wearer needed.

They didn’t need a combat skill, they would only occasionally need serious defensive enhancements, which could be placed on spell gems in accessories.

When he was finished, the item hummed with power, and Karl put it back into his inventory, as the Guild Store was still out of range. They had come a fair distance east, which was closer to Drodh, but not quite far enough to put them within range of the shop.

With the first piece done, Karl moved on to the next item that Ashbringer had piled into the travel crate for him. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

It was a simple set of chain and plate pants, designed for a heavy defender. If it wasn’t Elven Steel, the Dwarves would love this. Though, once Karl finished, they might not care about what the base material set was.

The Elven Steel was much lighter than the human equivalent of the same name, as well as being worlds apart in durability.

So, it could be comfortably worn all day, though it was a bulky design.

Again, the runes were deceptively simple, but powerful. It was just better to focus on the primary purpose of the item, and leave the accessories and weapon to add the specialty effects.

Though, when Karl brought out the third piece and found a set of delicate steel boots with snowflake patterns on them, he thought some should have a suitable effect for their design.

Using some runes from [Bulwark] Karl granted the boots’ basic ice creation effects, then added runes for fire resistance to the standard defensive abilities. Those ones would definitely be worth putting up at the auction in Drodh when it was time.

Karl lay back on the bed while the Haint stared curiously out the window.

There were many things in the world that she had not seen yet, and though she had some memories inherited from Leafa, they were mostly on the instinctive genetic level, not detailed like Rae’s knowledge of various species.

The night passed quickly with very little going on outside other than the steady flow of workers going to and from their jobs.

Opal bobbed her wings in agreement. She would return to her space, but she could leave her illusion there, and it would fill in for her once her social battery was exhausted.

The other beasts passed over small gifts for her, all tailored to either her nature as an illusionist, or to something in her space.

The thoughtfulness would have made Opal tear up if she had eyes.

She was realizing that she had underestimated the importance of the affection of family, even though she had been observing it all this time. Now that she had opened up to being included in it, the feeling was quite warm.

Even the notoriously unserious Cara and the food obsessed Hawk had found her appropriate gifts for her advancement.

Then Karl finished engraving an Illusion Element stone with the [Golem] spell, and placed it on the stage in the small practice amphitheatre in Opals space.

[It’s beautiful. I can make better solid illusions for my plays!] She gasped.

[I thought that you might appreciate that. I know that it’s not actually an advantage in most of the shows, but now you can have crowd interaction when you want it.

I remember that you were reading a book on fake illusionist shows, where they have audience volunteers.] Karl explained.

Opal flitted around her space in joy. She really did have the best family members.
