My Last Hunt

Chapter 246: Mentoring

Mentoring

The disciple is diligent 

"Young man the most classes in the level six happened to be about miscellaneous things for example Monster's recognition. The hunters are familiarized with several hundred monsters inuring in the seven continents. So basically it's a tempering of the memory of a hunter this way. Moreover it helps in recognizing immediately and then plans the hunt." Dachin voiced after a long silence. He was done organizing all the aspects and started with this one. Qiao heard and nodded. From the time he appeared in this world every hunter was a new and fresh. He never had seen it much less to hunt so he can take it as he could withstand the ignorance of this level. He has sharp observation skill with this he could calculate the movements and plan a better attack. 

Of course he understands the aspect since the hunting would be different after level five so the do the monsters but he has his grit to move on. He has choice at this moment shook away the idea of time and move for the enrollment in the hunting school or earn risk in every next level. It was mad choice but what was alternate? None. 

It was similar of prior knowledge of the thief when the police was to go on a search. It helps a lot in pinning down the criminal and what rush ways he could choose against them for escape. Here the 'thieves' information was also available but Qiao was about to ready bunk the class and the lecture so he probably would remain alert in the future that he skipped lessons. It would also temper him about the sudden and uncertain circumstances. "Let the time come and face the monsters one by one. It would be my luck whether I survive otherwise there is death waiting already." Qiao shook his shoulders. He made his mind and told the hunter. 

The hunter was also expecting a similar answer so he cannot blame. "The next is how to hunt those specific monsters hence you skimming the first choice then you have to learn some typical and well known methods to trap the monsters. It will help reduce the risk in hunting. Some of level six teams keep strong trap with them though these traps only work in the level six hunting. The traps cannot stop the level seven monsters least." Dachin paused and spoke again. 

"Most certainly the level seven teams use some random tricks for instance intentionally creating a barrier with the help of stone attack to trap a monster from escaping. There are few mouth sounds which can irritate a monster and it would not leave the vicinity instead attack." The hunter was relating this theory so that Qiao should keep in mind when hunting. These theories were taught in the big theory halls once in a week by the hunting school. The second comes the type of stones. "The hunters hunt for two main reasons. One for the spoils but it is only in lower levels. The higher level hunters are paid by the Hightown in exchange of the single stone gotten from the rare monster. As for the teams of level six and level seven since the team only consist of three members then they split the stone in three pieces. It does not destroy the validity of the stone and it still can be used for attacks."

"The teams keep these stones for attacks and for the defense depending on the situation. No one can force you to sell these stones unless you wanted them to be sold. From level eight to up none of weapon work so the stone were the real weapons used in the battles against the monsters. You have to keep some aspect in mind when leveling. You should not prefer only the attack type stones it is dangerous. It would also limit the ability of the hunter against the monster." If you learn weapon learning then these stones could also form a customized weapon which is not necessary limited to the hands of the hunter. It can work like a stone despite the appearance of weapon." Dachin explained. He did not want to skip bit of information which would keep the mind of the hunter alert in every situation. 

There were few tricksters who intentionally mold some of the information to betray the other member in the middle of the battle. Everyone knew the Hightown was strictly ruled so they pull off their fake goodness in the open forest. Human only fear strict law and the accountability when guarded other way they go on according to their own motives and instincts. For instance people won't pick up the thing fallen in front of them when it was lit and the cameras were on yet they would rob the neighbors immediately as soon as the electricity shortfalls. 

Qiao was hearing attentive. He knew every bit of information was useful. In the open forest everyone can turn enemy only the self-learning would help. "Now comes the type of hunting; there are only two types; first is to use weapon and second is to use stones. As I have already explained what you need at what level. The stones take the commands of the hunters. There are fragile changes which are actually much distinctive for an ambitious hunter. If you hunted a stronger hunter and got the stone then this stone would necessarily recognize your command once activated but if you bought an attack type stone then it is highly likely that it would betray without letting know the hunter. This said the stone would not use whole strength against the enemy of the hunter." 

This was a very critical point which some of the mentors skip intentionally. Qiao was amazed at this point. If he had had not known about it he must have been relaying on an enemy to save in time of trouble. What else facing the wicked hunter needed every aspect perfectly perfect. 

"According to this the stone taken from the first hand hunted monster would be better choice rather than a bought one?" Hunters usually buy attack type stones thinking that the higher level stone would be beneficial but it turned out that it was equally risk and threat for them. There happened to be many instances where a hunter was caught in a severe condition where royalty of the stone matters most. One could imagine the results after believing an enemy. From this Qiao patted himself and praised in his heart. His choice of this hunter for the help was not wrong. 

"Now it is important to understand the difference between attack type stones as well as defense type stones. The monsters that bear the attack type stones happened to be aggressive and crooked so the stones bear these qualities too. These types of stones were hard to active for the first time. A hunter needed to pour three drops of blood on the stone. You can recognize an attack type stone by bring it up and see through if there is vague line of blood inside of the stone then it is attack type." The hunter stopped thinking whether he skipped anything from the first theory lecture. 

He nodded that he did not skip. First row of symbols disappeared when he closed the first lecture. It was going smooth until now and he could see that the young hunter was diligently hearing him. Qiao was a very hard working student. His grades always remained highest this was the reason that he got scholarship for university. Here in front of the strong hunter he cannot blink his eyes with the fear that it might skip a word or two. It was great that the senior was speaking nonstop without skipping important information. 

In normal classes it might span three months of lectures. "Well the attacks solely depended on the personality of the hunter and his ways so it is under your choice how you plan for an attack. It would show your command as well as the sense of attack. Do you understand what I am trying to imply?" the hunter asked to confirm. "I understand in fact I have my own methods for monsters hunting." Qiao spoke out. The hunter casted a glance at his weapon and nodded. Wielding this type of weapons meant that the hunter has already formulated his own methods for hunting which was a good sign. 

It was clear indication that he was not teaching to the wall. There were several points yet to explain and later he would test that the hunter had had grasp them or not. The test would prove his ambitious nature as well as the hunter would be at ease to know that his friend would not remain a common hunter in the future. 

If this pupil was able to level up earlier after his mentoring then he would bet his rest of life on training hunters in his Guild. Qiao could understand the concerns of the hunter.
