The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

After assembly, Rishi went to a secluded place and opened the box he had received as a reward for being the topper. He opened it and found It had three daggers, one glove, and two special books.

These three daggers were small and black; they had no hilt like other daggers. There was also a glove of black color whose appearance resembled regular gloves in most ways, except that the finger columns were half-length and opened, allowing the top half of the wearer’s fingers to be shown.

Rishi looked at the two books. One had a black cover, while the other’s was red. The first book’s title was ‘Art of Mastering Throwing Daggers.’ “This,” a smile appeared on Rishi’s face, was a very useful book he needed.

“But how did the Academy know that I needed them?” He thought for a while and remembered having a conversation with Professor Roy where he mentioned that he would like to use throwing daggers for his dual wielding.

“I should focus on eating fruits; it is useless to count seeds,” he said as a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at the other book; it had ‘Self-Immolation’ written on it at the center, while there was a note at the top that said ‘Forbidden Spell.’

His mouth was wide open. This looked like a trap or a double-edged sword skill. He had seen forbidden spells in action before; the power they had was emense, but the cost was even scarier.

At first, he thought it was better not to learn this spell, but then he also started considering that the Academy wouldn’t give him this spell if its price was very high.

He had no time to read the whole book to understand the spell in detail to make a decision; he didn’t have that much time, so he used his ‘inspect’ skill. A golden light shone from his eyes as he looked at the book in his hand, and a screen appeared before him.

SPELL NAME: Self-Immolation

SPELL TYPE: Forbidden

Description: The Beast Tamer sacrifices their own Life Force to empower their contract beast for a period of time.

MODE 1 (Utility Mode): The Evil Flame strengthens with time and burns more life force.

Level 1: Surviving 5 seconds will give a 10% boost to all stats of the Contract Beast.

Level 2: Surviving for 10 seconds will give a 20% boost to all stats of the contract beast.

MODE 2 (Burst Mode)

Sacrifice 50% of your Life Force to activate this mode and give your contract beast an instant boost, doubling the effects of the Stat Boost to the amount of Life Force you have sacrificed. If the amount of life force sacrificed is higher than the maximum amount of boost, the user will get extra time according to the Quality and Quantity of extra Life Force.

Average Beast Tamer will get a 100% boost.

“How will I get?”

[Calculating the amount of life force in the user’s body.]

[Calculation Completed]

[You have 20 times more life force than the average Beast Tamer. Your amount of Life Force is way higher than the maximum boost provided; the Quality of your Life Force is also very high; as a result, you will get extra time.]

“What! Make it clear?” he asked, confused.

[You will be able to give your contract beast a 500% stat boost for twenty seconds.]

There was a pin-drop silence in the room for a while. There was no expression on Rishi’s face; his right hand was on his chin while his left hand supported his elbow. If someone saw him like that, he would think he was in deep thought, but Rishi was here analyzing different possibilities.

His lips curled up into a smile, and he laughed like a maniac for some time. “It looks like a very carefully made trap; someone used his authority to interfere with my prize. He doesn’t have the power to stop the Academy from giving me a prize, so he used this method.”

“He knew my weakness very well and pulled the strings from behind and sent this skill book to me. He knew I could not stop myself from learning this skill. Once I learn this skill, it will be very easy for him to assassinate me after I become weak after using this skill.”

“It is just a speculation, but this does look like an evil plan. The Academy doesn’t give spells like these as prizes. Are they planning to attack me once I leave the Academy?”

“Sweet Poison is what I call this strategy; I learn new things every day. I will use them on my future opponents.”

“I have also grown mentally; I think the blessing has also ced my brain. With the newly leveled up ‘Extreme Focus’ and formation of ‘Mental World,’ I have grown a lot mentally.”

“By meeting Mother, I have become more mentally stable; I am able to control my emotions very well now, which has stopped me from making mistakes by thinking with emotions.”

“This enemy is very cunning. He is playing in such a way that the one at a loss would be me. According to the Academy’s rules, students can’t sell the skill books they receive or purchase from the Academy; I am sure he can also use his connections to stop me from selling it to the Academy too.”

“What an evil plan! It looks like Tiwari Clan still has capable people, but I really thank you for sending me this skill.” He laughed again before stopping. A cold glint appeared in his eyes for a second, which he hid the next second: “Your only mistake was that you chose the wrong opponent.”

He clenched his knuckles and said, “It can’t go on like this; I can’t openly attack them. I need to prepare something that I can use to distract them while I am busy increasing my strength.”

“From the history, I know what can stop and even make big clans sweat; I need someone who can periodically assassinate the important people of the Tiwari Clan.”

He started thinking again, using ‘extreme focus.’ After it leveled up, Rishi could now use it whenever he needed; the only problem was that it consumed considerable mental energy. Thankfully, like other energies, his mental energy also increased with the increase of his life force.

His mother’s creation of the mental world had significantly increased his mental energy; it was just a little lower than his life force.
