With our first encounter with the magical beasts that destroyed the balance of the forest I was able to determine the strength of the team I joined being dragged by Hilda they are all veteran adventurers their strength is not only at their core level but in their elemental capacity after killing the beasts I could study their bodies better.
They are really unbalanced, their speed can be high and their claws extremely sharp, but their good points come down to that as their biggest advantage comes from their Shadow element which is weakened by the sun. barrier for shadow element saddles fully manifest her body isn't too big they're only three feet long her height doesn't reach two feet if she were bigger i would doubt she could be considered a killer type beast.
Without the element of surprise the last fight ended pretty quickly I thought it would be harder but after studying the beasts body a bit I have a better judgment of its weaknesses its body its skin is really weak for a level two beast it almost got compares to the bear I faced before its skin is very thin and becomes weak against slashing blows the warrior of the Wind element must not have had much trouble decapitating wing I wouldn't be able to do the same using my sword if she were a sword to improve my wind element maybe I could cut one of those beasts in half too .
I don't think the need for me to stand back and use my bow to harass the magical beasts my speed is just a little slower than theirs I believe I can do more damage using my sword and the danger is relatively the same as that of them. stay behind the team has a shield warrior and two warriors who have good defensive ability.
It didn't take long for the beasts' cores and their claws to be removed it seems these are the most valuable part of them as their skin would only serve as secondary material so it's not worth much my thoughts were interrupted when the captain scared me.
"Hey Ulric looks like you're a sensory warrior so I'll let you track our focus and kill as many beasts as possible, but don't guide us to a group with a lot of beasts try to guide us to groups of three beasts max ok?"
"Okay captain.
Well, it looks like I've earned the captain's recognition.
As I started looking for more targets my concentration was broken by Hilda and Nirie's conversation.
"Hilda your boyfriend and very helpful maybe I'll steal him from you."
"Go fuck Nirie!"
"We are not a couple."
"If he's not your boyfriend why are you more irritated that I say I'm interested in him than when Captain just said he's your boyfriend?"
Hilda's face reddened but my vision was obstructed by the captain who gave me a look that could only mean I should start doing my job or she was going to beat me until I started tracking down the magical beasts.
"It 's not time to chat after the mission, we can pick on Hilda's boyfriend."
It didn't take long for me to find the next group of magical beasts consisting of three beasts together and a few meters away from it a fourth beast.
"Four beasts in front, but one of them is separated."
"Ok guide us to find the one that's separated before Nirie takes aim at her head and kill her quickly after I limit her movements the rest are prepared to block the beasts that will come to her rescue."
I guided the team around the position of the beasts and facing the one who is alone when we had a straight line between the fourth beast and the group of three I signaled to the captain who in turn took the front of the group and fired at the direction of the beast leading the rest of the group I stayed behind already coated my sword with the art of the Invisible Blade after my last trainings I manage to create a much more concentrated coating of Wind element with it I won't have a problem to cut the magical beasts.
It took a few seconds to see the captain hit the beast with her shield she positioned her load so she could lift the beast's head and throw it to the side as it fell to the ground and was at Nirie's mercy the captain pressed it to the ground as he protected himself from the beast's claws using the tip of his shield.
Nirie, who is a little behind the captain, used the momentum she had with the race and delivered a blow aiming for the magical beast's head Nirie's spear easily pierced the immobilized beast's skull, but before it was completely dead Ron and the Fire warrior had already passed the immobilized beast and found the attack of three magical beasts at a distance from the group was not very large the beasts quickly reached our position.
Hilda and I were behind Ron and the fire warrior when they drilled the magic beasts I aimed at the part closest to mine which was the head of the magic beast that Ron blocked using his hammer as he didn't have time to spin the hammer he the used it as a spear and hit the magic beast's chest when holding it in place I had the opportunity to hit it on the head I went by the side of rom and cut it aiming at the magic beast's eyes since I doubt I had the strength or the angle needed to cut deeply into the beast's throat.
My sword easily ripped out her eyes I continued my charge to her side and cut the quilt from her back leg my cut stopped halfway through her bone when my momentum was gone I ran to my right to create distance from me and the wounded beast.
I left a sega beast, with a surface cut on the side body and finally I managed to hurt the magical beast's back leg was a good initial move Ron threw the beast to the side while blocking the last beast with the handle of his hammer its position it might not be very good, but he wasn't moved an inch when blocking the beast as an earth element warrior he used his element to create a solid defensive stance.
The injured Beast lunged towards me but that didn't worry me too much because with his injured leg he can't jump very hard towards me with my speed I can keep out of her reach and if she insists on following me I will be able to separate her from her pack.
When the magical beast chased me I saw Nirei using his wind element covering his body and spear she was making a move against the beast that followed me when Nirei started the charge she was covering herself with a flow of wind, but when she reached the magical beast she had turned into a wind project this must be some kind of offensive elemental art .
The beast that haunted me was impaled by Nirei his spear hit her back and go out in my body the magic beast and penetrate the ground with it the magic beast was immobilized when the raging beast by the pain of being pierced by the spear of Nirei I cut her throat even though I didn't have the ability to cut to her bone I still managed to make a boom cut the beast's blood gushed from her neck as she writhed on the ground until she died from the severe injuries she sustained.
While Nirei held the magical beast I made my way towards the group as Nirei had everything under his control when I arrived I saw Ron crushing the body of one of the beasts while the captain blocked it already Hilda and the warrior who so far hasn't I found out the name they had already killed one of the magical beasts so there was only the magical beast that Ron crushed with his hammer I swear I heard the sound of her spine breaking.
With that all the magic beasts were killed really the limit of the group and attack three magic beasts at the same time if it's more me or Hilda we can end up killed by them their speed is really high killing this type of magic beast without even an advantage should be very dangerous if they were covered with the Shadow element I doubt most adventurers could avoid being ambushed by them.
It didn't take long to harvest the precious materials and the cores of the four beasts we only have until the beginning of dusk to hunt the beasts when it starts to get dark they will be able to use their shadow element at will I can spot them using my eyes, but I doubt your combat capabilities won't strengthen in the dark.
But I doubt there will be any living beasts when it gets dark in the first place there shouldn't be a ridiculous number of magical beasts and there are several groups hunting them.
We spent the next few hours killing various groups of magical beasts in the woods with my ability to track the beasts and that encounters with the beasts ended quickly by the time noon gave we had already killed twelve magical beasts.
