Do you want to learn any of the skills?
Franz was confused, does it mean that he could learn the skills of monsters and use them himself? Or maybe he was referring to something else?
The only way to know was by accepting the request from the screen in front of Franz, after a few seconds, another message appeared in front of him.
Choose the skills you want to learn:
Mana Pool (D) (Beginner)
Increases mana reserves the more you have mastery of that ability.
Polymorph (D) (Beginner)
It allows you to change and shape the body to a minuscule degree.
Franz was fascinated, although the degree of description was not much, at least it described the essentials, it was not uncommon for a beast tamer to be unaware of the abilities of his hired beast.
In the end, no matter how small the information, it could be the key to success in a fight or other situations.
After some thought, Franz chose the skill; Mana reserve, a higher supply of mana meant a higher chance of survival in the event of an emergency.
Learning: Mana Pool.
Franz's hand began to burn and itch, forcing him to hold it tightly.
Luckily for him, the sensation only lasted a few seconds until it disappeared completely and upon closer examination, a star-shaped tattoo appeared on the back of his hand.
Franz Merrick
Current Kingdom: Soul Apprentice (First Degree).
Pom Pom (vinculada beast)
Abilities (1/2)
Mana Pool (D) (Beginner)
Franz couldn't notice any changes in him except for a slight dizziness, it seems that he couldn't use such skills on him, so how should he use such learned skills?
Din Dong Ding Dong
Interrupting his thoughts, Franz took Pom Pom and put him back on the bracelet, although Pom Pom was reluctant, he had no choice but to obey his master, Franz headed for the door wondering who it was this time.
When he opened the door, two people were standing in front of the door, a woman and a man, the woman was carrying a cake and the man was carrying several bags with him, the two of them had a certain resemblance to Franz.
- ¡Mama, papa! –
Perhaps because he was thinking about other things, Franz did not realize that his parents had left, William and Anne was the name of his parents, both were office workers in a relatively new company.
- Champion, we went for a cake and some ingredients to make your favorite food - said William.
Franz smiled and took some of the bags to help them, after putting the things on the table his mother looked at him and said - Well, where is your beast? -
-Here! - Franz said making a small blue slime come out of nowhere.
Although Franz didn't expect a great reaction, his parents actually began to comfort him after seeing his hired beast, although he told them that it was fine and there was no need to comfort him, he felt at ease with his beast.
- Franz, we know that the beginning can be difficult, but remember; those who strive and persevere on the path, are the ones who will be able to reach the end of the road - William said with a serious expression, making Ana give him the thumb up.
Franz for his part would not swallow a sentence from a bad book that his parents liked to read, he still had no choice but to play along and nod to the words of comfort from Mom and Dad.
- Okay, I'll keep it in mind, dad, mom -
On the other hand, the little slime who was excited to step out of the silly watch, was not able to understand people yet and felt even more confused when looking at his owner, Franz's emotions fluctuated greatly and Pom Pom didn't know if he was good or bad, making the poor slime feel bad and confused.
. . . .
After eating, Franz went to his room with the excuse that he still had things to do, his parents let him go on the condition that tomorrow he had to accompany them to the center of the city, where most of the big businesses were located, to which Franz agreed without problems.
The problem at hand was what to do with the skill he learned, he wondered if it was something he should use on him, because so far he didn't see any kind of change in it, Franz had a headache and while he was racking his brains, he could actually discern something barely noticeable about the small slime that was resting on his legs.
Teach
Pressing on the tab brought up a screen above Pom Pom.
Skills:
Mana Reserve (B)(Beginner)
Polymorph (D) (Beginner)
Skills to be taught:
Mana Pool (D)
Now having an idea of how his strange ability worked, Franz pressed his finger on the only ability he had with it, he wanted to understand more about his ability so that he could put it to better use, after all, knowledge is power.
After a few seconds, a large suction force began to absorb Franz's mana, causing him to immediately become alert and Pom Pom sensing Franz's emotions also got into an attack position, not knowing what was happening.
- Shit, it doesn't stop - The mysterious energy had already sucked at least a quarter of Franz's mana in just a few seconds and it didn't look like it was going to stop.
Pom Pom instead was sending messages to Franz through his contract bond to try to help him, Franz thanked him and calmed down a bit, his idea was to ask for help if the mana suction did not stop, although he did not know how effective it would be, but it was certainly better than waiting for death because it was not uncommon to hear about taming beasts and wizards that have died from excessive mana spending.
After several seconds that seemed like an eternity, the mana suction stopped, leaving Franz with just under half of his mana reserve.
Slime (Hierro): Pom Pom
Current Kingdom: Not initiated.
Skills:
Mana Reserve (B)(Intermediate)
Polymorph (D) (Beginner)
Franz carried Pom Pom in his hand, actually the little slime's mana reserve was at least 10% larger than before, but such a change was not due to practice, which meant that, within the same level, Pom Pom would have a larger mana reserve than the other beasts.
Franz could also tell that his mana reserve had grown, but the change was much smaller, Franz thought that this minuscule change must be due to his talent; Close bond, which provided him with the benefits of his beast based on the bond he had with Pom Pom and the closer the bond, the greater the benefits.
Franz was elated, but at the same time somewhat fearful, because what would have happened if the skill was of a higher quality, would the mana expenditure have been higher? if the buff didn't stop and ended up sucking out his mana completely, would Franz end up in a serious state from the excessive expenditure of mana?
Despite this, everything went well and thinking about his future and that of Pom Pom, Franz couldn't help but laugh like crazy.
JaJaJaja
And in his euphoria, Franz took the little slime and said – Little, we will definitely be great in the future – Pom Pom didn't quite understand, but if Franz was happy then he was too.

JaJaJaja
- You should talk to the child, I think our poor child has already gone crazy - Ana said while listening to Franz laugh like crazy from his room.
"He'll be fine, he's strong and we men don't talk about problems," said Williams who began to turn up the volume on the television to avoid hearing his son.
However, William felt his face being burned by a terrifying look, which caused him some discomfort and when he turned to see what it was, he could see his spouse looking at him with a death look, making him unable to help swallowing.
- I'll go see him right away, honey - William said leaving the room in the blink of an eye.
And now that Ana was alone, she switched television to her favorite soap opera and said to herself.
- He's a good father -
