The couple was wistfully unaware someone’s mind had exploded. They were in their own room, which was located on the interior side of the lot with a view of the gardens outside.

Garan’s room was relatively large and untouched, cleaned up every few days by the servants.

It was designed with her comfort in mind and she loved it so much. "This is like backpacking with you, except in a nicer place," she said, lying down comfortably on the bed.

"Ah, what an interesting trip," she said, looking at the ceiling. "I wonder what we’ll choose…"

Garan looked darkly at his soft wife just laying casually on the bed, as if unaware a beast was next to the bed.

When he was planning on this base, he put a lot of thought on that bed. He wanted to be sure they would be sleeping there very comfortably… especially with nightly activities.

He kneeled down next to her, causing her to tilt down in his direction. He hovered above her and rested his arms on the side of her head.

"I spent a lot of money on the down and the design of this," he told her, leaning down to sniff her neck, tickling her. "We even found a plant alternative to give it a springy movement."

He lifted his head to place a chaste kiss on her lips, though his hand was doing something decidedly not chaste.

"Why don’t we test out its strength right now?"

….

The next day.

Ferrol Town had a large field within its walls where several big annual events were held. This was called the Ferrol Fairgrounds, and it was in use every couple of months, seeing a large influx of people from all over.

The fairgrounds were divided into different sections, with the largest area dedicated to the Market Row where merchants and beastmasters from all over displayed their controlled creatures for sale. Here, buyers could peruse a plethora of Beasts to purchase.

There was a grand arena erected at the middle of the large field. Its perimeter was lined with thick wooden posts reinforced with iron. Within the arena, there were large cages, each holding different beasts of varying levels.

There were wide walkways for people to use and observe these monsters, and Althea and her husband were here, perusing around in interest.

The monsters’ eyes were still wild with hunger, but they did not attack like they usually did, which was testament to the power of the Beast Masters.

For Alterra, which would have modes of transportation much more controllable than beasts, this was not practical to get at all.

What she was interested in though, was recruiting a few Beast Masters.

They gathered a lot of information about this field from perusing and asking around as if they were clients. Jonathan’s hospitality seemed to have spread as well, so there was a lot of ’better informed’ beast masters who were particularly kind to them.

Beast Masters could control beasts by creating instruments to control that particular beast. It varied per beast, even if it was the same species, and each order had a different sound.

For example, sometimes one just had to blow, say, the whistle to order it to make it run. Using the same whistle, if they blew harder then the monster would run faster.

Sometimes, different whistles would be needed for the same beasts, particularly when they were stronger.

The strongest controllable beast here was level 20, and it cost a whopping 200 Gold—easily a normal person’s salary for 1-2 years—and almost the cost of Gochi.

The cheapest ones were also in the three digits as well. This wasn’t including the maintenance of these monsters. Not to mention, the whistles had wear and tear as well. No matter what, it was just impractical to use Beasts.

Anyway, from this, she could tell that their powers must have a lot to do with sounds, frequency, and wavelength. She’d need to brainstorm more with the research team, but it should be more or less in that direction.

She wondered: If Beast Masters could control frequency, sound wavelength, and the like, what else could they do?
