At the end of the morning we stopped for lunch obviously we didn't light a fire we just ate dry rations and drank water the captain didn't want to waste too much time the more magical beasts we kill the better the reward given by the guild will be, but even with this break she gave me the opportunity to chat and get to know the team members on this since I don't even know the names of all the team members .
"Sister Nirie can I ask you a question?"
"Of course, but I'm not sure I'm going to answer her."
"What is the name of the elemental art you used when hunting the magical beasts, the onslaught you made is very strong and fast."
A smile spread across Nirie's face.
"Well Ulric is an offensive art of the Wind element it's called Path of the Arrow and a very difficult art to master I've practiced it for years but I still can't use it right."
There's something wrong here because the name of this art has no spear in its name.
"Sister Nirie I couldn't help but notice that the name of this art and arrow and no spear you could explain it to me better."
"It's normal to get confused this is an art for non-lancer archers I use it like that because I haven't mastered it the Path of the Arrow and a shooting art it consists of using the Wind element to enchant an arrow it not only has the power of penetration increased as it can also control the trajectory of the arrow and finally her to absorb the wind element in the way that it makes the longer the trajectory it more strong the arrow becomes. "
"But I can't use it correctly as I said before it and a very difficult art to master I can't maintain the absorption effect when the arrow moves away from min and I also can't control the arrow when it gets too far away then using it to shoot an arrow is not worth it so not to waste the time i spent practicing it i had the wonderful idea to use it on my spear as i am not throwing the spear i can use the art absorption skill the bigger if my distance to my target the greater will be the power of my spear combined with my art of movement I can make a quick attack and with enormous penetration power."
"The only downside that I spend a lot of aura on this combination, so the cost is higher than using the art of Caminho da Flecha in the traditional way ."
Very creative I was looking for an art for archers maybe I can try to learn this even if it managed to master it I can adapt it for my next fight.
"Impressed you sister Nirie I am combination of arts and very creative and strong could you teach me the art of the Arrow Way?"
"I like your Ulric compliments but I can't teach you because I got this art from the Menfis family so I can't teach you it you'll have to find a copy of it maybe the institute has one but I doubt it would be on the first floors of the library. inventor of this art used it to kill four storm hawks at the same time using just one arrow for each the art of the arrow path became famous when he did this event became a milestone for many archers even after hundreds of years do not hear a single one archer can defeat this feat of the celestial archer Houyi."
Really and one made legendary because as far as I know the storm hawks and a beast magic ray element wind and they are usually the level five six killing four while Houyi must have been an archer core silver.
"So the art of Path of the Arrow must be a high level art sister Nirie does she have no core level requirement to be able to use it?"
"If I had I wouldn't have chosen to learn her Ulric in her text says that her mastery has two determining factors the control of the Wind element and the mastery of the Arrow I never intended the latter maybe that's why I can't execute it correctly , but I haven't given up on understanding Arrow mastery. I have been researching and practicing all my free days for the past few years to try to learn it.
Maybe I have to do some research on this art before I start practicing it should I have plenty of time for this as it will be difficult to find a complete copy of her manual.
"Well thanks for explaining your art to me Nirie .
When I was going to ask about the name of the captain and the Fire element warrior I was interrupted by two people one was Hilda kicking me and the second was the captain herself .
"We've spent too much time here listening to Nirie's delusions of grandeur let's get back to hunting Ulric lead the way."
Nieie was a little offended by the captain's statement and the smile faded as the word delusions came out of the captain's mouth.
"Captain before we go I can ask your name and his."
Obviously I was aiming for the Fire element warrior.
"You do not know my name?"
"No Hilda didn't tell me when she was dragging me to the city proton."
"Hilda is very lazy even my name is Deneve and his and Dauf ."
Seeing Hilda's offended face, the team's rectum prepared to return to the hunt.
We spent the next few hours hunting three more groups of beasts our efficient hunt only came to an end when I found a pair of magical beasts, but the problem was that they were not common but the elite species of this predator they had the Wind element and Shadow.
"Captain has a couple of beasts in front of us, but they have two elements we must attack them or retreat?"
"Let's move on you and Hilda must be careful they are much faster and deadlier they are the elite of this species I will block one of them you five will kill the other one surround her and don't let her have room for her to use her superior speed ."
We made our way towards them usually when we got within six meters of the beasts most of them noticed our presence , but when we got within fifteen meters of them they already turned towards us and started to color towards us Captain and Ron already positioned themselves in front to block their onslaught.
Shit just now I realized that we are going downwind they should have realized our scent should have gone around them to be able to bridge the gap of them.
As in previous combats, both Captain and Ron are personal and use the Earth element not only to increase the weapon's defense but also to fix their position by sticking to the ground, but this pair of beasts was much stronger than those that used us. we faced before because by blocking them Ron and pushed back only the captain managed to keep his position more or less intact she was only pushed back a few inches.
The captain used her strength to push back the magical beast to isolate it and give room to surround the magical beast that is attacking Ron, who in turn swung his hammer throwing the beast to the right.
Now at a distance from the beasts Nirie and Dauf attacked the beast.
Nirie took aim at the face of the beast while Dauf the sequia ready to block the beast and atacala the open side I and Hilda were behind them just waiting for an opening to PDER attacks as well.
The beast dodged the lunge Nirie his spear evil aranhou the neck of the beast, but its movement elusive to put in the way of Dauf to lock their prey and pounce making a cut in your body.
Now surrounded by the front and sides the beast tries to retreat only to be attacked by Ron and so she is forced to dodge to the side, but Dauf doesn't attack her but continues around her and Nirie attacks the beast to interrupt his path.
With the circle almost formed by the five of us, the beast is in the center of it waiting for an opportunity to attack.
I leave the first attack to Hilda who uses her ice spear she takes aim at the leg of the beast that retreats out of Hilda's reach, but as she puts herself in Dauf's reach her rear leg is severed and unfortunately the cut wasn't deep enough for make it clinch more Dauf was aiming her knee.
Being attacked from behind the beast turns to protect his leg only to be hit by Ron and Nirie who make a pincer attack on it Rom hits the beast before he takes aim at the already injured leg with his hammer pack he makes it she turns to her left leaving her with no escape from Nirie's spear that was attacking her from the right Nierie's spear pierces the beast's internal organs .
I had already started my charge towards the beast when Ron was hitting the beast when I checked on her she was still reacting to the pain of being pierced by a spear I cut her on her paw which was intact my sword cut a part of her knee when I I moved away from her to make room for Hilda to pierce the beast's rear.
With two spears piercing his body the beast lost its impetus and was overwhelmed by Rom and Dauf but memo stop she still retaliated the shield Dauf was marked by the claws of them if they were longer maybe the arm of Dauf would have been nipped in the beast.
But a few attacks the beast was dead when Hilda and Nirie removed their spears the beast collapsed dead to the ground.
We turned to see Captain Deneve fighting a beast alone she was basically blocking using her shield which was covered by compacted rocks, but even with Captain's solid defense the beast was tearing at her defense with her claws, but the captain held on to her defense. firm.
But I can see how much aura and Earth element energy she was using at this rate Captain was helpless.
As the level two beast is not very intelligent she only realized her situation when she was already surrounded by the six of us.
We made several superficial attacks to destabilize the magical beast in the same way we did the other one, it didn't take long for it to be impaled by two spears and its limbs crushed.
With the death of the two beasts I could see the state of the captain's shield the first layers of them were all cut off the claw marks are scattered all over her shield .
The cutting power of the Wind element of this beast is amazing the captain's shield and an elemental shield even combined with the captain's defensive art and her aura it was still ripped apart by the magical beast if one of these strikes had hit my sword it would have been cut as if it was made of paper.
Can I get some of these gilts they would be a great material for my dagger as I decided to use elemental metal to make a sword focused on elemental strength and amplification rather than its cutting ability her skin would be very useful too even considering the element shadow of the beast that is useless for min in the best of cases if not find a good artisan the shadow element can end up damaging my equipment.
