Supreme BeastTamer: I Can Copy and Upgrade Skills 10x!

"I... I'm still alive!" Captain Bofan stammered with wide eyes as he struggled to believe it. A moment ago, he had given up on life after being sucked into the hurricane. He had stared into those blue eyes that seemed to belong to the God of Death himself.

As he drifted closer to the elemental beast, surrounded by gales of frigid wind blades capable of tearing even metal, Bofan noticed something—disappointment in those blue eyes. Why... why was the beast disappointed? Was it upset that he couldn't kill it? Bofan was confused, his thoughts chaotic in that final moment.

But did it really matter? He was going to die anyway. Heck, he doubted he could even get past the gales of frigid blades—they'd effortlessly tear him to shreds. Though high-level Awakened had tougher skin, Bofan wasn't confident he would survive.

Just then, he noticed the blue eyes of the elemental beast shift from confusion to joy before returning to their original pale, empty state. And they weren't looking at him—they were focused behind him.

In his confusion, Bofan, now very close to the fierce wind gales, suddenly felt something wrap around his stomach and pull him out of the hurricane with incredible force, almost knocking the air out of him.

With a dazed expression, his eyes wandered upward. and they fell on a familiar boy with eyes as dark as the night itself. With his hair hovering in the air, Bofan couldn't help but feel the boy looked even more handsome today. A tear slid down his cheek. He wanted to say thank you, but no words came out.

Ignoring the cheering of the alliance members, Nox ordered Asta to drop Captain Bofan off with the others. The distance was over 300 meters, but thanks to Asta's Spatial Tentacles, she could extend them across vast distances.

After gently dropping Bofan with the others, the tentacles unwrapped themselves and gave Bofan a soft pat on the head as if he were a child before retracting like an elastic band.

"Captain!" Bofan's soldiers exclaimed as soon as the tentacles released him. They wanted to rush over and give their captain a hug, but the older man gestured for them to stand back. He nodded at them and then turned to look at Reyes, who was exhausted and barely standing on his feet.

"Thank you for trying to save me." Captain Bofan bowed low, his eyes shining with gratitude.

"You're welcome," Reyes simply responded, his gaze fixed on the hurricane, which had come to a stop. His attention then shifted to the giant yellow creature, its several tentacles dangling menacingly in the air. "Our major priority is to help the kid."

Meanwhile, seated on Astralux's head, Nox stared intently at the hurricane, his gaze locked onto those blue eyes. He didn't look away, even when the elemental beast acknowledged his fearlessness by nodding its head.

Their stare-off lasted only a couple of minutes before Nox proceeded to use his Analyze and Beast Sense skills. His heart pounded loudly in his chest, lingering doubts plaguing his mind as he feared the skills might not work. When he used them, however, instead of the name being displayed as it had been before, a new message appeared—a red message.

Nox's expression changed. This wasn't what he expected to see.

[No Target Found]

"No target found?" A wave of realization washed over Nox. 'Could it be...?'

Before Nox could finish his thought, the figure inside the frozen cavern began to dissipate, turning into mist as though it had never been there in the first place. As soon as the mist disappeared, so too did the ice hurricane, flowing back into the frozen cave.

The reason the skill didn't work was because the figure with the blue eyes inside the hurricane was never the elemental beast. It had been a mere illusion.

'It seems this beast wants us to fight it inside,' Nox mused, his gaze lingering on the mouth of the frozen cave. Of course, he didn't blindly rush in. Instead, he telepathically willed Asta to drop him off with the others, and the beast complied.

All the members of the alliance stared at the giant creature in awe and admiration. Just by looking at the beast, they could tell it was an Elemental Beast, a rare and powerful entity. But who was this kid? How did he manage to control such a creature? There were so many questions swirling in their minds, yet they knew there wasn't time to ask—there were more pressing matters at hand.

Still, the likes of the slim men from the scavengers group and members of Bladesong Academy couldn't help but throw envious glances at Nox.

"I have a plan," Nox stated as he jumped down from Asta's back, landing on the ground without his knees buckling. He could see that the others wanted to thank him, especially the military men, but they paused after spotting the serious expression on the handsome youth's face.

'I know you already have a plan, but I have a better one that might actually work against this beast,' Nox said confidently, his clear voice unfaltering as he addressed the alliance members.

"What is the plan?" Reyes, having recovered a bit of stamina, was the first to speak up. Though he already had a plan in mind, he didn't mind hearing Nox out. After all, the kid had displayed more than enough skill to be trusted.

Despite his relatively young age, no one opposed him and simply nodded, eager to hear what he had to say.

"Kid, do you have a way to stop the hurricane?" The leader of the Silvermist asked skeptically, scrutinizing the boy who wasn't even fifteen. Aside from his relatively high level for someone his age, his attractive face, and his unique class, he didn't strike her as a deep thinker.

Nox glanced at the woman with an intellectual appearance and responded, "Yes, I've considered all of this in my plan."

"Ignore her, she's not important. What's important is this plan of yours," Reyes stepped forward. "So, what is it?"

"As long as it helps us defeat the elemental beast, I won't object," Reyes added, sensing the confidence radiating from Nox.

Nox grinned. "It's very simple."
