The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1349

Chapter 1349: Cara The Optimistic

"You are Cara? Wow, that scar is nasty when you’re humanoid. Did your friend give you fancy clothes too? We’re going to have to go to a formal dinner, and that means pretty dresses for all the ladies." Rue gushed as she examined Cara, who was wearing a tunic with the sleeves rolled up and short shorts with bare feet.

Cara smiled. "Oh, the amount of fashion I have available would blow your mind. My sister is a famous fashion designer at home, and she doesn’t mind if I borrow a piece now and then."

"We could go as twins! Well, almost, since you’ve got that white stripe in your hair." Rue suggested eagerly.

Cara rummaged through the clothing she already had, and came up with a suitably frilly black dress. Only, hers had dozens of pockets sewn into it to hold treasures she wasn’t sure if she would keep.

She switched clothes, and Rue smiled. "Oh, that is perfect. Did you get pockets to hide snacks? That is spectacular. So few people know the value of hiding food for later."

Cara smiled. "Even when you’re not hungry, keeping a few snacks on hand is never the wrong answer. A wise person never has empty pockets."

Rue frowned. "But now that I have a class, I have an inventory. Don’t people keep all their valuables in there?"

Cara nodded. "Of course. But you should always have useful stuff in your pocket. If you’re busy, others can grab it for you, and if someone locks your access to mana, you will still have what you need.

See this pocket? I’ve got a nice slim dagger tied in it, and nobody would ever know without patting me down.

But in an emergency, or when I’m in restraints, I can still get to the blade."

"Do you often end up in restraints?"

Cara shrugged. "It’s a minor side effect of my exploration efforts."

Containing a Chaos Badger was not an easy proposition, but many had tried to hold her until Karl came to get her in the past.

Rue likely wouldn’t be so good at escaping.

"Where do we sit?" Cara asked, finally realizing that this dinner was a great opportunity to meet new people.

That helped their mission, and it could be fun, too.

"Probably at the small table for children along the north wall? Emissary Karl should be at the main table with the other high Nobles, since he’s a Mythic Mage. But the rest of the seating is usually by age.

I don’t know what they’ll do for you, though. You’re also powerful, but still young looking." Rue replied with a frown.

Cara shrugged. "I am young. But beasts grow up faster than dragons."

Her humanoid form was also much less aligned with her physical growth than her personality. She looked like a mischievous teen girl, only a few years older than Rue.
