"Alright, now that they've left, let's proceed to clear the path to the central area... We'll only be facing some Savage Beasts… It's good training for the five of you as well. Although you've been trained for a while and acquired some decent skills, you still need to hone them in real battles."

Vincent said as he looked at the group of five behind him...

"Yes, Sir Vincent! We won't disappoint you…"

"We will show you what we've learned all this time."

"Since we're not worried about a Magic Beast suddenly appearing, these Savage Beasts can't stop us."

Lar and the others said with confidence.

"Hey! I want to join too, why did you not call for me?"

Krusk suddenly appeared behind them complaining about why he was left out. Vincent glanced at the young mythical beasts and patiently explained.

"Krusk, once we left, I need you to protect this area… Although Yulia is a good fighter, she doesn't have the stamina needed." Vincent said as he decided not to mention Millie and Ceri who will be helping him as well.

"I'll protect the five aircraft?"

"That's right… I know you can do it… Aside from that, I think you should also try learning how to hide your aura first. So that other beasts won't notice you…"

"Urgh… You're right… I will return to the ship then. Don't take too long."

Vincent nodded at him as he watched him leave. To be honest, Vincent wanted Krusk to join them as well but the main issue is that they won't be able to hunt these beasts with him following them.

Krusk is a Mythical Beast that has an incredible beastly aura after all.

It may not be noticeable to some humans but the instincts of Savage Beasts and Magic Beasts were strong. Once they felt Krusk's presence, they will immediately run away or hide in their caves or whatever tunnel they could fit themselves into.

If that happened, hunting these beasts would have been a lot harder.

Of course, Vincent had also purchased a scented powder that will attract these beasts from their hiding place. However, it may not be as effective if Krusk joined their group.

Soon, their group steadily moved forward to the central part of the valley. They were now all equipped with their battle gears and ready to fight at any time…

"There are three wolves ahead… It's probably Stoneback Wolf or Inferno Wolf… Can you handle them?" Vincent asked.

"Of course! Leave it to us…" Lar answered with confidence.

Vincent wanted to see their skills as well so he allowed them to move on their own.

Vincent nodded as he pointed to the location of the three wolves who seem to be searching for prey.

"Ross, Kian… Secure the sides in case they escape… Mark and Terrence will follow me." Lar instructed as they immediately moved with haste.

Since the wolves are also moving, they had to move faster and ambush them while they are still unaware of their presence.

They were not equipped with long swords but instead, they were short blades that suited them really well. Although they've received training from Millie and Ceri, they started learning blade techniques from them as well.

After trying the long swords and short blades, they all concluded that short blades suited them… Well, their decision is probably influenced by Tara's fighting style. They have previously had a glimpse of her blade techniques when she was practicing her Nimble Mavis Blade and were all mesmerized by it.

Vincent decided not to interfere with them but he used his Soul Domain to ensure that everything is under control…

It covers over 300 meters but he could certainly increase its range if he decided to spend more of his Aura.s

'Four large snakes are hiding but they should be able to handle it even without my warning…' Vincent thought after realizing that the wolves seem to be getting closer to the nest snakes.

If he would make a guess, this is what these wolves were hunting.

He then used his Shrouded Steps to get into a better position to observe the battle.

Previously, Vincent had seen them use three Martial Arts Techniques that Yulia taught them, they were Deadly Seven Fists, Flying Swallow, and Armor Breaking Kick…

He already knows that they were skilled in this unarmed combat but he hadn't seen them yet in action using their blades…

***

"Sir Vincent is watching… Let's show him our skills." Lar said as he tried to boost their morale. After all, this will be their first battle against Savage Beasts after being trained in the Stellar Residence.

Lar glanced at Ross and Kian who had separated from them and confirmed that they were in a position where the wolves might escape…

With this in consideration, he immediately used his 'talent' to launch a surprise attack…

He focused his energy on his feet as pounced at the gathered wolves…

Bam!

His sudden boost of speed created a shockwave alarming the wolves. Because they have hidden their mana fluctuations until now, the wolves only realized their presence after they started circulating their mana…

Awooo!!

One of the wolves gave a warning to the approaching man or perhaps it tried calling for reinforcements… They didn't really know what this howl means but they didn't stop…

Lar thrusts his blade threatening to stab the nearest wolf… Because of the distance, the wolves were able to predict his trajectory and decided to jump aside while planning to maul him after…

Lar missed his charge but it was all part of his plan… It was only his way to separate the four wolves from each other.

At this time, Mark and Terrence showed up with their charged blades… They have learned how to properly transfer their mana to their weapons similar to how Aura Knights use their Aura Resonance. Although it wasn't perfected yet, it is already enough to injure these wolves…

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

Two Mana Blades were thrown and Vincent couldn't help but be surprised about it. This is definitely a Tier 2 Mana Art!

Although he can now learn Tier 2 Mana Arts as well, he hadn't learned any technique similar to this! The closest would be his Mana Bullets which were obviously smaller in size.

He can only think that it was taught to them by Millie and Ceri…

Soon, he saw two of the wolves unable to defend themselves and had their limbs torn apart. This was only the start of the battle as Lar exploded with Mana Waves disorienting the wolves…

However, Vincent frowned at their situation..

'Hmm? Did they not notice the snakes?' Vincent mused as he realized that the large snakes were sneaking behind Mark and Terrence…
