Chapter 204: Tessie in her element.

They made sure to restock on the potions before heading to the southern gate on a carriage.

"So what's the plan?" Luciano asked when they were out of the southern gate.

"To increase Tessie's combat ability, she would be the one to fight any solo beast. If we end up meeting packs of beasts then we are all up." Blake answered.

"What if something goes wrong?" Tessie asked in an anxious tone.

"You don't have to worry, you won't be put up against what you can't handle and if anything is to go wrong, we are here for you." Blake said with a smile that boosted her confidence.

"So how deep into the forest are we going?" Luciano asked.

"Well, nothing below the Elite rank will be a challenge, but let's see how things go." Blake's words made Luciano smirk.

He knew if Blake was looking for a challenge then they were looking at Knight ranked beast.

Using the system's large detection range, Blake was able to pick out isolated beasts before sending Tessie to fight against them.

They always stayed out of sight while paying attention to the fight in order to swoop in when Tessie needed it the most. As for being ambushed, Blake didn't think much of it because the system was 'standing guard'.

As the current fight between Tessie and a sklade was going on, Blake was trying to note down her flaws, but so far there was nothing noticeable because it was too easy.

Due to how annoying the plant element and defensive capability of the water element were. The sklade wasn't even able to get within 10 meters of her.

"She is the clear definition of mages who don't let their opponents come close. Let's see how she fares against a stronger opponent.

On looking for a stronger beast, the team came in contact with a group of venomous raccors which basically a raccoon thrice the size of their earth counterparts, but this time they had razor-sharp claws and teeth that secreted poisons.

The raccors were tricky and dangerous due to their speed and venom, but the team was fully stocked with antidotes which enabled them to wipe them out without fear.

"Alright, I can sense a scaled mutt ahead. Tessie that's your Que.' Blake announced.

Scaled mutts were dark scaled dog-like creatures who had no eyes, but used vibrations to picture their environment.

Scaled mutts possessed creepy green teeth that glowed in the dark and extremely infectious razor-sharp claws. They were known for their impressive speeds and power-packed attacks.

With their sharp claws and agility, the scaled mutts were skilled climbers, and facing them in the forest was a disadvantage.

Taking a deep breath, Tessie moved out of their hiding spot and loudly approached the beast. The goal wasn't to ambush it but to test her strength. So she had to draw its attention.

"Grrrr!"

The resting scaled mutt growled when the vibrations of the wind drew the outline of a human in its head.

The scald mutt barked a few times in order to warn Tessie of her trespassing into its territory but seeing the human had no plans of moving out, its relatively passive nature changed to aggression as it lunged at Tessie.

Water barrier!

A water barrier formed in front of Tessie as the scaled mutt was about to reach her, but instead of crashing into the barrier. It used it as a base to propel itself to a tree before lunging back at her.

The same action repeated itself a few more times before Tessie began using her plant abilities.

The scaled mutt is said to have an advantage in the forest due to the trees but as a plant user, Tessie was literally in her elements.

The presence of century old trees attracted a lot of life energy, giving every plant user a significant boost in their plant abilities.

Vine constrict!

From all the nearby trees thorny vines began sprouting as they all aimed to constrict the scaled mutt. The volume of the plants were increased due to the location boost but even at that, the scaled mutt got away from them before they came in contact with it.

'She is too passive. If thigs continue this way she would run out of mana.' Blake thought as he saw the scaled mutt dodge and tear through the plant vines.

Just like Blake had predicted, Tessie had begun running out of mana and the battle was moving towards the relentless scaled mutt due to its monstrous vitality.

As the scaled mutt landed more strikes on Tessie's barrier, her fear kept on growing and she began making mistakes but that was until she snapped.

Right from when Blake had said she was to face a stronger beast, she had quite afraid. Even when she met the beast face to face and it lunged at her, her fear kept on growing but she was able to keep it in check.

It was up until now that she realized that the more her fear grew, the lesser her chances of survival. She became frustrated at her own weakness and soon the frustration turned to anger.

Water geyser!

The scaled mutt lunged at her water barrier with a power packed claw, but that was when the surface of the water barrier distorted and a jet stream of water shot out.

Bam!

The force of the jet stream sent the scaled mutt flying into a tree causing a deep dent, but that wasn't all.

Vine constrict!

Before the scaled mutt could fall off the tree, thorny vines wrapped around its body. It's thick scales protected it from most of the damage from the thorns but it knew if it stayed there any longer it would be a goner, but it was far too late.

"You are not going anywhere." Tessie shouted.

Blood Drain!

At that moment, large spikes rushed out from the tree behind it impaling the scaled mutt before draining its body dry.

"Holy shit!" The guys were shocked when they saw Tessie move from 0 to 100 in an instance.

"I think that is a lot of training for her. It's time to head back." Blake said as they approached her.

"Nice job. I am really proud of you." Blake said as he spread his hand and Tessie came in for an embrace.

"Thanks." The moment was in Blake's arms she forgot her worries and wanted it to last forever.

The next day was a break for the team, but not for the order of chaos adventurer party.

Since their goal was to train Tessie and their team work, they hadn't done much of hunting, because unlike Luciano and Tessie who received their beast cores on a platter of gold, they had to work for it.

They entered the Mina forest and were laying waste to any group of beast that were unlucky to come their way.

With the system's detection range they were farming beast cores at an unbelievable rate.

'It's funny how some months ago I was using it to avoid beast but now I am using it to track them down.' Blake thought to himself.

Although they were farming a lot of beast cores, Blake's main goal was to find a knight rank beast.

[I know you are hoping to find a knight rank beast but I would like to inform you that the beast rank isn't as straight forward as that of humans.] The system said. [It is at the knight rank that beasts receive a lot of boost, and this boost is dependent on their genes.]

[Beasts like reptiles that possess the bloodline of their ancestral forefathers, Dragons and Basilisks receive a tremendous boost. While those that have normal bloodlines aren't that powerful.

Now if two of these set of beasts are to face each other, the reptile will definitely be the winner.] The system warned.

No matter the rank of beasts, even at the ancestral realm there were hierarchies that were determined by bloodlines.

'Alright, I will try to be careful.' The system's words tuned down Blake's enthusiasm for the search.

The search went on as they kept farming, they found no trace of Knight rank beasts.

...

The day went by and classes resumed but it came with an interesting announcement.

After their class with professor Gibson, he made an announcement to the entire elite class.
