They went into their house quickly, fluffy looked at all the things inside very curiously while pumpkin went to the kitchen looking for more food. They waited for his sister to come and even made roasted wolf flesh again.
Soon the sound of footstep came as they looked at the entrance, Emil entered the house with an expressionless face but when she saw Amil, her heart bloomed.
"Welcome back, big sister"
"What a surprise, you came late this time and I smell something good too"
They talked and after listening to them, pumpkin came out of the kitchen, Emil and pumpkin were getting along pretty well now as now Emil is the one who makes food in the house. But when she saw a slightly big boar coming from Amil's home, she frowned and was just going for the sword when Amil stopped her.
He filled her up with all that transpired, and she was very shocked.
"Beast Taming? Never heard of that before. And after what you told me, maybe the conditions to get it is to be asked by the beasts first like what happened to you"
"That's not the oddest thing, I went to the leader for telling him about fluffy and he asked me to come in the morning…. with you"
Emil pondered for a while as if knowing a little about what the leader called for. She didn't tell Amil about it and rather asked him to spar with her for the time being.
"Okay"
They went to the training area, Emil never sparred with him with all her might and never planned to, her level of mastery was just way better than him. But she wanted to give all the knowledge she had gotten on her own to Amil as she loved him dearly.
They sparred for about 5 hours that day nonstop, and at the end, came the time when the fruits of the labor were given.
[ Swordsmanship Beginner level up]
"YESSS!!!!" Amil shouted with all her might that resounded like a loud happy roar.
Emil just looked at him with warm eyes. Amil after so long was able to achieve the 6th level, it would have taken him days if not weeks without her sister's help. She was a real prodigy when it came to swords.
"Okay, congratulations and now it's time to sleep, from what I can think, we have got a big day tomorrow."
Amil didn't ask much and obliged. They slept normally with fluffy in the lobby as he was too big to sleep in Amil's room.
Morning came soon as they woke up very early, Emil had already made a good breakfast that they ate in an instant.
They reached the leader's hut and went in directly. When Amil saw the leader again sitting on his chair doing the paperwork for the tribe, he felt pity that he didn't know why.
"Welcome Emil and Amil, I see you are on time." They both just nodded as they knew it was something important and needed to listen quickly.
"Emil, as you see, Amil here has leveled up even faster than you, and the companions he has, make him more capable of what I am suggesting."
Emil looked at the leader seriously.
"The forest is going to level him up quick like how every normal person does before 5 but I think after observing him for a while that he can do much better."
"Sir, please say clearly" Emil interjected, Amil looked at her with wide eyes as if scared for her to offend the leader. But he found the leader chuckling at the remark.
"That's why I like talking to the smart people, a tribe nearby is making problems, we need to take care of it. I am sending a strong team to deal with it and want both of you to participate with them."
Emil's eyes shone as she became happy, she looked at Amil who was looking at her with a confused expression.
"We accept Sir, it will be a great opportunity for up, we won't disappoint."
"I know," The leader said with a mild smile.
"You will be meeting the team in the morning so get things prepared fast."
They both nodded and bowed before leaving. After reaching a little far Amil couldn't help but ask.
"Sis, what was that about?"
Emil looked at him for a while and said, "There are many Kobold tribes near us and different species too, our tribe is at war with many tribes right now to get supremacy and full control over the area."
"So, the tribe sends every kobold that reaches level 7 to fight with different tribes, it just so happens that we are very good at fighting, so the leader gave us the chance to have a better battle experience."
Amil thought for a while as she had told him many things to think about. He had one thing in his mind that he found confusing.
"We will kill Kobolds, right?"
"Yeah," Emil said with no expression change.
'I knew it, we kobolds are too self-centered, killing our own species doesn't affect us'
Amil was confused with his thought process as when he was thinking about killing a Kobold, he didn't feel anything like he was not doing anything wrong. Maybe it was the Kobold genes, but it was happening.
'Then what will happen when I see humans?'
He shook his head and put those thoughts away. After sparring a little more with Emil. The day went by in an instant.
In the morning…
"Why are you not walking?" Emil asked enviously seeing Amil riding on fluffy.
"Can't…fluffy wants to show that he is useful"
"A level 3 wild boar thinks that he can help by being a mount, not by fighting?" Emil didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She couldn't even talk to fluffy as he could only understand Amil due to their mind link.
They reached the entrance of the tribe, 8 kobolds with different kinds of weapons were near there looking at them coldly. They reached towards them, a kobold in the middle came towards them. He had a spear in his hand.
"So you much be the genius sword user and snake kobold who also have a wild boar as a mount. This must be why the leader sent you too. By the way, I am Pyro Sephron" He talked with a huge grin.
"Nice to meet you too, I am Amil and he is Emil. It will be nice teaming up with you." Emil said while shooking Pyro's hand.
They looked at the other members who were still giving them cold shoulder and even stink eye sometimes.
"Don't mind them, it's just that they had very hard and reached level 7 for this while you are having an exception. They will come along after a while, just show them your strength." Pyro said while coming to fluffy. Fluffy didn't mind and was just looking here and there.
"Can I pet his head?" He asked curiously with excited eyes. Amil nodded.
Pyro put his hand delicately on fluffy's head and started caressing it gently. Fluffy didn't mind as he was quite enjoying it.
"You make me envious Amil, you've got to tell me how you got that taming class everyone talks about.
"Now, we've got one person left and he is our captain. After he comes, we will leave."
Pyro kept The sister-brother company, Amil told him how he got the skill as it was not something to keep secret. It was rather a stroke of luck that Amil got the beasts.
The triggering of the skill was still unknown till someone gets it again from Amil's methods.
They waited for a while talking when suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"I see, you bastard. You really have good potential." Ekrem, his old trainer said.
"Good morning, teacher" Emil said while bowing towards Ekrem. Amil was confused but did the same.
"Haha..Emil, you have become big now, I remember the days clearly when we used to train all day" Ekrem said while patting Emil's shoulder again and again.
"You see Amil, your sister was very good at the sword from the start, so the leader told me to give her extra training. But we didn't now that she would become the most dangerous swordsman in the whole tribe"
Amil looked at Emil who kept giggling from the praises. Amil knew how strong her sister was but not to the point of being the strongest! His road of thought got blocked from another shout.
"OKAY!! ENOUGH TALKING! It's time to leave!"
They started marching outside the tribe, Amil, Emil and Pyro were walking together chatting all the time.
"So, how far is the so-called tribe from here?"
"About 40 kilometers, they are also at the outskirt of the forest, but the forest is so big that we haven't even found what's on the other side of it"
Amil kept listening to the interesting things that Emil and Pyro told him. He found the forest to be very exciting.
'I will be the one finding what's on the other side' He thought.
They kept marching peacefully. But will it be peaceful all the time?
