Monster Integration

I was woken by Rhea four hours later for the watch, I washed my face with cold water to wake myself from the half-awake state.

There are still a few hours till dawn, I decided to study the skill to pass the time.

Blazing strikes is really amazing skill, first I thought it would just like throwing concentrated fire arrows through certain method but I was wrong.

This skill much more than that, as I kept studying it, I have come to know the true value of this skill.

If I am able to successfully mastered this skill to the end, my mana manipulation will reach a completely different level.

The swirling fireballs which are still taking me second to contract will be made by with the thought. With absolute mastery over this skill, I will be able to deliver thousands of blazing arrows every moment which will be comparable to High-level Knight level skill.

hours passed by as I got immersed in studying the skill, I didn’t even notice when the sky is brightening, I only come out my immersion when I felt movement beside me.

It is Rhea who had woken up, nodding toward me, she left to freshen up. I closed the folder seeing studies enough.

Ashlyn still hasn’t woken up, this glutton really ate a lot last night, she asked for the second plate after she finished her first and now she will wake up late because she overate.

I quickly freshen up seeing, there is only an hour before the time of leaving. When I went outside the camp, I found that chubby Andrew is already cooking the food and Rhea is talking to Neil, asking him about monsters they encountered in the valley.

"Good Morning!" said chubby Andrew, I reciprocate his greeting and sit beside him to watch him cook.

Andrew is a really good cook, his food comparable to which I get in my apartment, he had all types of cooking instruments, condiments, and spices for cooking.

When I asked him yesterday how did he learn such good cooking, he said he had taken classes, I got a quite surprised hearing that. Adventurers rarely learned anything other than combat-related classes.

Tasting his cooking, I also decided to take weekly cooking classes after I got out of this realm. Soon Andrew finished cooking and started to make plates.

Seeing Ashlyn still hasn’t come out the tent, "Excuse me, ill bring Ashlyn." I said and walk back into my camp to wake up Ashley.

"Ashlyn wake up!" I said while shaking her awake, "Chew chew!" Ashlyn chirped annoyedly, asking why do I waking up her so early.

I stilled suddenly! isn’t her emotion way too clear, ever since she leveled up to specialist grade, her intelligence increased by far compare to normal specialist grade monsters?

Normally any specialist grade bonded monsters intelligence could be compared two years child and it increased as time passed or it leveled up but Ashlyn intelligence is currently compared to the three years child and only Corporal grade bonded monsters have the intelligence of a three-year-old child.

I sigh! It is not the time to think about such a heavy subject, I hit her head lightly and said, "It’s already early morning, don’t you want to eat?"

"Chew!" just as I said food, she became active again forgetting she was still in half sleep moment ago.

"Let’s go!" I picked her in my hands and get out of the camp.

The plates were already served and they were waiting for us come, I even water coming Rhea’s stone panda.

I took the seat and place Ashlyn beside me and about to eat the food, "Chew chew chew!" Ashlyn chirp loudly cautioning me to not the eat the food, I’ve never felt Ashlyn emotions so serious.

"Rhea, don’t eat!" I said loudly, Rhea’s hand stopped as she was about to take the bite, not only she, her monster also stopped, she must have stopped her monster from taking the bite.

"Is there something wrong with it?" she asked, I nodded while her right hand reached near her right pocket without anyone noticing.

"What’s the meaning of this!" Andrew said angrily, "You tell us? what did you add in the food?" I asked back, I completely trust Ashlyn judgment especially when it comes to food.

She was even able to smell the Miracle Fruit compare to that whatever that in the fruit not worth mentioning.

"Do you think we me did something with the food?" Said Neil accusingly, I am definitely sure something is wrong with the food and there is no one but these two who could do something to food.

We stayed silent to Neil question and just stared at them a quietly demanding answer.

"We have nothing but hospitable ever since we met you, we invited you to our camp and even shared our food with yesterday and now you are accusing us of poisoning food? just because your monster didn’t like it!" said Andrew vehemently.

"Forget it, Andrew! this may just be a big understanding, some ingredient in the dish that must have ticked the monster." Neil said a sad expression could be seen on both of their faces.

’’Our friends didn’t seem to believe us, might as well eat the food to assure them." He said and both of them started to eat food in front of them.

Looking at them eating, I even doubted Ashlyn sense for the moment but soon squashed it, I asked Ashlyn many times telepathically.

If she had made a mistake regarding food but she is quite adamant about how she is right and something is definitely wrong with the food.

"Look, we are eating and nothing happens to us?" said Neil while eating.

Rhea looked at me, asking me the next course of action, I am quite relieved seeing she is still trusted me.

"Ask deedee to catch the small monster and have her taste food?" I asked.

"You got to be kidding me, you still didn’t believe us even after we ate in front of you?" Andrew said anger seeing deedee walking in the trees.

’’Neil, Andrew I know it won’t feel good to you but I trust Ashlyn immensely and there may be some problem in the ingredient which had a problem, it’s better be cautious."

’’And if she is wrong I will profusely apologize to you and compensate you," I said.

They didn’t say anything and we sat in uncomfortable silence.

Suddenly all changed Neil, Andrew, and their monster suddenly, thank god; we were already ready.

’Bam!’ rang out as defended Andrews attack with my shield, I had already worn my shield bracelet when Ashlyn told when something wrong with the food and now they suddenly attacked, I quickly activated my shield at moment notice.

While rhea dodge neal and his monsters attack with the help of her knight grade shoes.

’’Hehe! Andrew these two quite smart looks like we have to do this old way, you should now summon your monster, there no use hiding it now!" Said Neil while laughing weirdly.

"You right Neal, it’s no use hiding it now," he said and summoned his monster.

Our eyes went wide when we saw the monster and everything fell back in place because Andrew monster is
