The Beasts of Men

Chapter 25

"Please tell me you are not making that decision because of me"Elijah replied quickly . "Oh course I am duh". Sarai replies, rolling her eyes. "This way all the top brass won't notice that you can't transform." "I'll admit it is a good idea but that puts us at a huge disadvantage when it comes to our overall strength. I mean both of us have the worst class when it comes to dishing out power or strength. Unless we were a Shaman   Class then we could throw lighting everywhere." "Typically we are support classes," Sarai said. "But will support each other,'' she said with a smile. Sarai  continued. "So I was also  thinking we should head to a graveyard and find some old warrior that could show us some crazy strategies." Elijah trying not to panic asked. "Why would we do that?" Sarai  starts to give the [do you really think im that stupid look]. "Because I know you can see spiritual souls Elijah", she says talking to him like he's a  5 year old. "Shh" Elijah said, looking around quickly. "How could she know that". Elijah thought to himself? "We have been through this already, the Tiger tribe shares the same class systems as the Lions do and your Anubis class isn't common but some Tiger beastmen still wield it". Solomon said from the mind scape. Elijah froze for a second. "right", he said out loud. "I'm starting to question this genius title they gave you." Sarai  said joking but not really.  "My older brother was an Anubis as well. I would always hear him talking to himself and shout very loudly to shut up even though there was no one there". "Did he not have a mentor to help him control his power?" Elijah asked. "Yes we did but he arrived too late. The Spiritual souls terrorized him into madness. I can tell you have yours under control I haven't seen you talk to yourself not even once." "That's because he tells me to shut up around you Solomon said with a petty voice." Sarai  looks at Elijah for a second and studies his face. Then she makes a shocked one. "You already have one don't you". Elijah falls silent. "As powerful and wise as I was , I am always so shocked by a woman's intuition." Said Solomon, shaking his head. Elijah's starts to stutter because he's nervous which doesn't happen often. He leans over and whispers. "How could you tell?" he asked her. "It's all over your face , you always look like you're thinking way too hard about something." Elijah made a face. "From now on" he said to Solomon "we are no longer going to be talking in public". "Yes I do, he's an old ancestor of mine." "Really!? Who?" Sarai said with excitement. "Kid, don't tell her exactly who I am" said Solomon. "Why not you don't trust her," Elijah replied. "I don't trust anyone and it should be up to me who I should reveal myself to. "He doesn't want to say, he's a pretty private person,'' Elijah said trying to sound convincing. "That's fine I guess." Sarai  replied sounding disappointed. "Well does he have any tips for us?" "Let me ask," Elijah said while closing his eyes. When he got to the mindscape he saw Solmon there on a throne with a crown on his head. "Can we get serious about this, dude she found out about you." "First off don't make it sound like where lovers are and second dude no she didn't." Solomon paused for a second "ok maybe she did". "But not me exactly so just make up something." Elijah made a face. "She could literally figure out about you without me even saying a word". "Alright well just keep it open ended then." Said Solomon. "Advise wise though, this is a good time for me to keep you up to speed on our training too. Plus she's a druid like me so i definitely want to see what she can do. Alright I need to know her stats." "Ok Imma head back in realtime" Said Elijah. "And he's still alive." Sarai said, overly dramatic. "Was I really gone for that long?'' said Elijah. "No, I just wanted to freak you out." "You're hilarious, you know that. Surprisingly he said that he would help us but first he needs to know our stats. "I figured that would be the case so I bought a piece of black tablet with me," Sarai  said, pulling it out.. Elijah was shocked when she put it on the table. "You actually just have one of these in your bag". Elijahs picks up the shard in AWW. Sarai starts making a embracing face because she forgot how much further up in Nobility she is then Elijah was. This shard is worth at least 3 Silver Pieces
( 1Copper is worth 1c, 1 Silver is = 50c, 1 Gold =100c , So Sarai  black shard is worth 150c. To Put it in perspective Elijah's monthly allowance is 1 Silver piece). "Alright so what do i do? Is it the same as the Large black tablet? I just put my  Spirit energy into it?" "Yes, it's exactly like it." Sarai replied. As soon as Elijah did so a small projection screen came above his hand that had all of his stats on it just like at the Festival of Generation. Elijah freaked out for a second because he thought his dual Beastmen class systems were going to show up. "Wait, this doesn't show what class you are?" Sarai  shook her head no. "Only the larger ones do that." They both looked at Elijah stats which read:
Spirit Power 25
Willpower 50
Physical Power 23.
"All that physical training we do in the morning and you only rose a few points. I definitely have been cutting you too much slack", said Solomon. "How is that even possible? Sarai said, staring at the projection. "Your Willpower is already at 50? That makes no sense you can't even transform so why does it keep on rising? And so high? This is the biggest hurdle for Variant Beastmen to break through. Since most of us don't transform all the time,they train themselves to constantly transform throughout the day to catch up with their other training. Elijah did you lie to me?" Sarai said. "As soon as Elijah looked up Sarai  was staring directly into his eyes." Elijah could tell that she was worried about the response he was going to give. "I would never lie to you ever,'' he said, grabbing her hand which made her blush. Elijah nervously pulled away and tried to play it off. "Trust me when I tell you this tattoo isn't fake". Elijah said. Sarai  thought for a moment. "That's true, sorry". she said. "The only other thing I can think of is that  you have legendary beastmen blood. But that's like 1/100,000 chance  that you are. If you were then there is nothing that can contain your power not even that tattoo." Sarai  said  nonchalantly. Elijah Stopped the projection right before grabbing Sarai by her hand and said "We need to leave RIGHT NOW."
