Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints-Chapter 532: I Am an Alchemist
After finishing the meal, Mason noticed that Charles seemed to have something he wanted to discuss with Soren and Orion, so he casually mentioned that he had things to attend to and left first.
Once Mason left, all the servants and staff also departed from the banquet hall, leaving only Soren, Orion, and Charles in the large, empty room.
"Mr. Charles, my injuries have almost healed. I've been staying at the General's residence for quite a while now, and it's not appropriate for me to continue disturbing you," Soren spoke up first.
Charles was taken aback. Was Soren planning to leave the General's residence, to leave Genosha?
"No, Mr. Charles. As you know, all my mystical beasts perished to help me escape. Although I am still at the fifth level Beast Master rank, I have no mystical beasts left. I plan to head to the Lnfinity Isles to gather information, and at the same time, try to re establish a contract and raise new mystical beasts."
"Even if I manage to raise a suitable mystical beast again, I will still only be a fifth level Beast Master. I know I may not be able to do much, but I can't just sit around and do nothing!" Soren said with great determination.
Charles looked at Soren, feeling a bit lost in thought. He seemed to see a glimpse of his teacher, Ezra, in Soren.
Soren was doing this for his former comrades. Was Ezra also like this? He couldn't help Ezra, only watching as Ezra took risks, but he could assist Soren.
"Your injuries haven't fully healed, and you don't have a mystical beast. There's a high chance you won't be able to do much. How about this? I'll provide you with some help to accelerate your recovery, and in exchange, you can gather information for me about the Lnfinity Isles forest. How does that sound?" Charles said slowly.
Soren immediately stood up. He had originally planned to leave Genosha and head to the Lnfinity Isles to look for opportunities. He hadn't expected Charles to offer help; this was a complete surprise!
Soren was speechless. When his life was hanging by a thread, it was Charles who saved him and provided a safe place for him and his sister. Now Charles was offering to help him again, asking for nothing in return but some information.
Soren looked at Charles, clenched his fist, and said with firm resolve, "Mr. Charles, don't worry. I'm not the type to fail to repay kindness. Once I've done what I need to do, I'll do whatever you ask, even if it means walking through fire or ice. I won't hesitate for a second!"
Seeing her brother standing up and saying this, Orion immediately stopped eating, stood up, and earnestly said to Charles, "Orion is the same. I will become a powerful Beast Master and will surely be able to help Mr. Charles in the future!"
Charles looked at the two of them, sensing their genuine emotions. However, he couldn't help but feel a bit amused. To him, this was simply a transaction and cooperation he would help them in exchange for information. He hadn't expected such a strong reaction from them.
"Alright, alright, we'll talk about this in more detail later. But if you're going to the Lnfinity Isles, what will happen to Orion?" Charles asked slowly.
Soren turned to glance at Orion, hesitated for a moment, then his expression became resolute again as he answered:
"I plan to keep Orion by my side. People like you are rare. The world is cruel and harsh, and she must become stronger if she is to live well in the future."
Orion didn't react much. She had always been someone who strove to stand strong, and in the face of adversity and difficulty, she would never give up.
After that, Charles briefly talked with Soren and arranged for him to gather information about the Lnfinity Isles.
Without any hesitation, Soren, along with his sister, left the General's residence that same day and boarded the train heading toward Celestial City and the Lnfinity Isles.
"Next, I need to focus on improving my strength and see if I can break through to the fifth level Beast Master before reaching Celestial City. Also, I wonder if Mia will learn any new skills!" Charles stood at the station, watching the train carrying Soren and Orion depart, lost in thought.
The days ahead seemed calm and routine, but for Zachary, Luma, and Finn, they were extremely difficult to endure.
Due to Grace receiving the Genosha Royal Family's secret realm inheritance, she was in seclusion, no longer required to participate in the conflict between Genosha and Kingston.
This, however, was a good thing for the others. Without Grace, the team was now united under Charles as the core, with only one voice leading the group, avoiding any problems.
Every time Charles met with Zachary, Luma, Finn, and Luna, they would rant endlessly about how insane Nathaniel's training was, and they all felt envious that Charles didn't have to participate.
As time passed,
Finn, who had not complained much before, also started to express his pain. However, by then, Zachary and Luma were so exhausted they didn't even have the energy to complain.
With only half a month left until the agreed upon time between Kingston and Genosha, Finn's complaints had reduced significantly, and instead, Luna, Nathaniel's daughter, began to make brief but powerful remarks.
For example: "I might not be his real daughter."
"I can't do this anymore."
"Charles, I'm so tired."
Charles could only listen to the group's complaints about Nathaniel while increasing the intensity of his own training. He had a feeling that it wouldn't be long before he reached the fifth level Beast Master rank.
With only eleven days remaining until the agreed upon time between Kingston and Genosha, Charles broke through from the fourth level Beast Master to the fifth level. Nathaniel, upon hearing the news, was delighted, and on that day, Zachary, Luma, Finn, and Luna's training intensity was doubled.

With only nine days left until the agreed upon time between Kingston and Genosha, Mia, under the influence of the orange quality miracle drug provided by Colton, successfully comprehended a new skill named [Blessing of Wind and Moon].
[Wind and Moon Spirit Falcon]
Quality: Diamond
Skills: [Moon Riding Wind], [Sharp Claw Strike], [Frenzy Gale Slash], [Blessing of Wind and Moon]
Weakness: Abdomen/Lightning Element
Hobby: Alcohol
Mood: Happy
Health: Good
Loyalty: 85
Evolution: 4 Paths
Description: This is an extremely rare Wind and Moon Spirit Falcon that has reached its youth phase, with an accelerated rate of strength growth.
[Blessing of Wind and Moon]: The Wind and Moon Spirit Falcon can disperse the pale cyan light on its forehead and infuse it into the bodies of its companions, increasing their speed in moonlight and strong winds. The denser the moonlight and the richer the wind element energy, the more significant the enhancement.
Mia's growth during this period has been incredibly rapid. Charles has also specially bought a lot of fine wine for it, which has significantly improved Mia's loyalty.
Now, Mia's skills are on par with Charles' other mystical beasts.
"[Blessing of Wind and Moon] is a supportive skill that greatly enhances my abilities, especially for Little Gold. Due to its large size and its nature as a metal element mystical beast, its speed is somewhat lacking. This ability will help make up for that weakness."
With only eight days remaining before the agreed upon time between Kingston and Genosha, Nathaniel surprisingly allowed everyone to take a break and called Charles to a scheduled meeting at a specific location.
"Do you know why I'm so harsh on you? Of course, excluding Charles." Nathaniel looked at Zachary, Luma, Finn, and Luna as he spoke.
Zachary was the first to respond: "It's to ensure our strength improves so that we can defeat Kingston's geniuses!"
Nathaniel nodded first, then shook his head, replying, "That's partly true, but it's not the whole picture. The more important reason is that I want you all to survive."
After Nathaniel's words, the atmosphere in the room grew tense, and even Charles was focused on Nathaniel, eager to hear his explanation.
"This isn't a competition, it's more like a real battlefield. I will explain the specific rules once we get to the location, but what you need to know now is that this is a real battlefield. People will die." Nathaniel continued.
He briefly explained that the competition would take place at a special venue in Celestial City, where Genosha's and Kingston's geniuses would fight. However, the competition wasn't just about combat. Each participant would also need to collect certain items for points, and the country with the highest points at the end would win.
During the competition, participants were allowed to fight each other. This meant that they could either quietly collect the necessary items or fight to steal items from competitors.
Of course, since no one would be intervening, this meant that various unexpected situations would arise during the battles.
"So even if you are severely injured, we won't be able to provide immediate assistance. Also, all weapons, equipment, and items will be issued uniformly. This includes miracle drugs. Charles, I'm afraid the miracle drugs you have won't be usable." Nathaniel said seriously.
However, Charles immediately thought of a crucial question and asked, "Do we have any information about Kingston's geniuses? Especially whether there is an alchemist in their team?"
"Alchemist?" Nathaniel looked at Charles, and the others also turned their attention to him.
"Yes, I am a special grade alchemist. If they don't allow us to bring miracle drugs, does that mean alchemy equipment is also prohibited? I can even make miracle drugs on the spot!" Charles directly stated his thoughts.
Nathaniel's eyes suddenly lit up. That's right, not every genius is as well rounded as Charles!
Normally, Kingston would definitely send their genius Beast Masters to Celestial City, which would give Genosha an advantage. The restriction on miracle drugs wouldn't be a problem for them!
Because they have Charles, a special grade alchemist!
