Mentoring 4

The last session of theory

"The classes and hunting tactics of beasts are different. Almost all of the beast's share similar characteristics with slight changes. The dangerous one is those who have attained the infinity level. They could change forms and confuse a hunter. No one knows how they learn the exact methods of human hunting. The Hightown want is trying to find out the root of problem but until now the success is far away." Dachin started the last theory lesson. He himself was short of time. With the scar healed his first priority was to practice and then inform the second Rank Masters about his availability in the test trials. 

The Hightown was always ready to take test trials because the active and recruited hunters were on missions so someone should be there to act on fresh reports. "There is another problem the hunters who chanced upon hunting beasts never share their experience and it hinders others from taking precautions. For me I have yet to face the beasts in the field. I held myself back because of the scar in my consciousness. I bought the beast stone for practice but failed several times. Now that I can activate the stone it is clear indication that I can face the beast." Dachin gladly related. 

In this aspect Qiao would face and then see what the drawbacks were or how he could come over them. "I decided to talk about the criteria of using a stone for the last theory because you are required to remember it no matter what. Every leveled stone has a limit of usage. After the limited usage the stone lose its energy so in every battle you should have required number of stones or you should be aware when the stone would go useless. It is critical during a battle." 

"Only the beast stones are different. They are used for long time depending if it is used against monsters of lower level; against a beast it would take extra effort. Monsters of higher level can attack from distance yet the beasts of infinity level can attack closely depending if they remained in the human form for attack; changing form would be troublesome. Summing up I would say it is the hunter who would decide what to do and what not." The hunter stood up from his chair and the stones moving around the room lost their light returning back to the hunter. 

Dachin held them and secured in the small pouch hanging on his waist. It was a sign that the theory lesson ended. Qiao stood up to follow. "Before a demonstration of the stone attack I want to know how long you have been hunting." Dachin asked an unexpected question. From his facial appearance he was young however calculating the exact age years of especially a hunter was impossible. The hunters can maintain their peak appearance and looks by maintaining the level even after three hundred years. So the senior has a reason to ask the question. 

"To be honest it had only been three months since I first started hunting. I invest every moment in hunting or practice rarely resting." Qiao related. The hunter turned around agape scrutinizing the young hunter from head to toe. It was hard to believe but the calm composure of the young man was enough to jolt his senses. He shook his head and smiled. "Are you sure?" Dachin gulped his dry breath. "I have hunted two attribute type monsters until now and one of them was a lake dragon." Qiao explained his hunting experience. "The spoils gotten from the dragon were traded with level eight hunter of the Hightown though the water dragon split the stone in three pieces before death and I heard that it cannot be used until the three pieces were patched together." 

He remembered the incident back then. The round black eye ball of the hunter's wide opened. Now he can understand why the young hunter possessed strong consciousness. "I won't ask much then. It seemed you do not need a demonstration either." Dachin was thinking whether to brag his way of attack with a stone or not. Of course it was no more in question. 

"It will be a favor if I could see the demonstration." Back then Qiao witnessed the higher level hunter attacking with the stone and he acquired much from it however they were in the middle of chaos. According to him he must have missed few details. "Sure then." Dachin moved in the open yard of the lodge. "The surrounding is limited so my attack would follow the limitations." 

A stone shone bright and a line of bright energy traveled in the yard. The stone did not move about instead the energy followed the gesture of the master. Qiao observed the details and nodded. With this his brain caught a new idea which can be helpful against beasts however he could only test it when confronting some beasts. 

"This senior is exceptionally learned and I am glad that we had the bargain perhaps it was fate that we ended up helpful for each other. Now I would take my leave to get in the Hunting school." Qiao put his hand on his chest and voiced. "Sure I will be waiting for you to reach the Hunter King position sooner." Dachin put his hand on his chest and gladly added. 

"Let me guide you the path toward the Hunting School." Dachin threw back some active stones and left with the young hunter. Telling him the path would confuse as the Hightown was densely structured and designed place. They walked out of the lodge and took one of the paths. Within half a day bundle of information was imparted. Qiao had been following this way of collecting information so it was fine with him. The information was not messed the hunter took care of every aspect and the way he organized it was enough for Qiao to make mental notes. 

Taking huge steps they walked many new paths. The hunter did not speak anything while Qiao was anticipating about the environment of the Hunting School. He was bound to skip classes and the elders would definitely take him a fool. They cannot think enrolling someone with zero knowledge.
