'Sigh…what an ineffective limit test…' Shye sighed in disappointment as he glanced at his familiar spirit. 'I should've taken on a stronger (S) ranked creature…'
He believed that an entry-level (S) ranked creature would more or less allow him to at least estimate how far Zeth could go in combat.
However, Shye never imagined that even an (S) ranked Void Elk, which was near the top of the monsters' food chain, would be instantly killed by his familiar using a simple stomp to its fragile spine.
He didn't even get the chance to appraise it.
The elk underestimated Zeth because the mare appeared much smaller and less menacing than other (S) ranked monstrous creatures.
Unfortunately, this one mistake cost the Void Elk its life, giving the duchess access to its fragile back.
Had their target creature not been excessively prideful in nature, things might've been a bit dicier.
