Master Of Myths

"Two hundred fifty-eight…..Two hundred fifty-nine…..Two hundred sixty..."

"Three hundred thirty more to go, if you don't finish by sunrise we will be late"

"...Two hundred sixty-one.."

Too busy to reply Ellis pushed her body off the ground once more trying to keep her hands from shaking as much as she could, she didn't want her master to berate her for dropping him again, him or the two-ton rock acting as weight for her pushups

"Awuuu"

Next to the sweating Ellis Anput wasn't idling as she dazed yet another group before sending them into the fold of her sand, never to be seen whole again

"Good, keep reusing what sand you have called for before, there is an end to how much you can get of it from the Sand Crown after all and it will be a while before we get back to the desert so you can replenish it"

He instructed the energy drained hound from atop the bobbing massive rock, knowing that controlling pre existing sand was, contrary to common belief, more draining than tapping into the crown's sand reserves for when using the latter, one would gain sand that was charged with energy to a certain extent which caused them to use less of their own energy in order to control it

The hound had her tongue out as she panted for air, the incoming angry kuala-like beasts however didn't agree for a break and charged at their death once again

'Another beast pack about to be finished off, we're should be making quick progress in our levels, still, it is too slow to reach my required level'

Watching the hound bury them under her sand and slumping on the ground for some much needed rest he began to anticipate the day he could finally lend a hand

'Let's see how close I am'

Pulling up his status he glanced over the progress made twenty days after existing Hortus

"How easy it was to level up when we had the buff…"

It had been over a month since they exited earth's territory, during that entire time they only raised his level to seventy-four while in one week during the assimilation phase of earth he got an entire fifty levels, granted he had the buff and hoards of weak beasts to pick on he still felt stagnant after slowing down to this turtle-like speed

"And I'm receiving experience from four and not just two, hmm, I wonder how the others are faring"

He hadn't taken the time to check on his two other soul slaves and blood slave lately since he was busy training Ellis and Anput, thus he pulled up their stats and looked at the progress made while he was away

'This one is tricky, the vitality stat is increasing greatly but it's just an illusion, most plant types who can spread their body will gain a huge increase in this stat but once they have some parts cut off the stat will go down again, only when they fully spread themselves to the max range would the stat then start to matter as the actually strengthening of vitality would begin, as for how to spread out its AP...I'm clueless'

Knowing nothing meant he had to think about it thoroughly before taking the next step, this would have to wait until he came back to his house

Lastly, he brought up his blood slave's stats which saw the most change

"Hm?"

Two things caught his attention in her stats, the first thing he noticed was the decrease in vitality, for vampires vitality wasn't the main stat but still a strong point as one would expect from a blood based being, this stat going down by such a huge amount proved to be a worrying phenomenon

The second thing was the very obvious new addition to her stat list, after all it was hard to miss it with a flashing pulse sign in front

Before making any assumptions he pressed the sign and a list unfolded revealing two names, Zero and Ika, respectively

'I assume blood servants are thralls? There are only two of them though, perhaps she isn't too good at using her skills yet'

He attributed it to her lack of practice and closed the status, as for her high level? Well, he already knew she would surpass them by heaps and bounds for she did not share her experience with him like his Soul Slaves did and her half race gave her a huge advantage when earth was still encased within the walls, that meant she made the best use of the remainder of the first week to pump up as many levels as she could

'Overall I'm satisfied with everything, well, almost everything'

His eyes drifted to the family name of Subrina and Mia

'If only I knew it would be their family name I would have at least removes the 's', it just doesn't fit well'

He tried to look for a way to do that but it seemed the name was set in stone, there was little one could change within the status, only distributing AP and SP as well choosing a class was possible, everything else was locked, even renaming yourself was impossible

'This all reminds me of what classes I need to give everyone, other than Subrina who is set for the first few I should start thinking about what the others need'

Mia was already ready to receive her second class but he couldn't decide what was most fitting let alone Anput and the root who he couldn't begin to think of what class they needed

'So much research to do, so many things to plan, I wish I knew about all this beforehand hand, I had so much time to prepare'

He couldn't be blamed though, who knew the Master class has so many secrets and benefits, some of its unique effects revealed secrets about the system he never thought if before

'Truly a great decision it was to obtain it'

"Master....can we...tone down....the training"

Ellis's weary voice came from under the rock interrupting his thoughts, she spoke in between push-ups breaking her sentence into parts

"We need to get your prepped up for the upcoming battles, I'm not sure if you two can beat the enemies together after your gruelling training much less without it"

"Just who....are we....facing"

"Dwarfs, Giant Dwarfs to be more precise, those fellows are good at blacksmithing, they are not as specialized as the two baboons back at Hortus but their versatility and numbers make up for their lack of high skill"

"Giant....dwarfs??..."

"Ironic, I know, they are bigger than us but are still called dwarfs, it is because they look and act exactly like normal dwarfs except their size is magnified so they were termed giant dwarfs"

"Why are we....fighting....them"

"You seem to have a lot of energy, how about adding another hundred pushups?"

"....two hundred eighty-five...."

Hearing her get back to counting and cease the questions he smirked, its costs to be curious
