Transmigrated as a Ghost-739 Chapter 739

While Marcus and his team, and James and his were stuck dealing with a multitude of challenges, the only group composed completely of beast companions was having a different type of trial.

Currently Inten, Blitz, and Eirwen were stuck in a room with a large bookshelf in one corner and having to learn and practice new skills.

For them there was no time limit and they all simply needed to learn knew staple skills that most people would have had by their levels but as beasts they had never picked up.

These included staples like mana body, mana barrier, speed burst, and other such skills.

Normally beasts just typically had heightened physical abilities and were not intelligent enough to pick up skills like these that required training.

The only one of them that even had any magic-based skills was Eirwen who had lived in an intelligent beast community before becoming Mrazivy’s companion. There he had picked up ice magic and was nearly as good at it as Mrazivy.

“Squeeee!”

Being blown away Inten failed to keep up his recently learned mana barrier skill and let out a distressed noise.

In order for the special dungeon to determine if a skill was up to snuff depending on what the skill was it was tested by different automated suits of armor.

For the mana barrier skill that Inten was currently working on he was being attacked by a suit of armor that was wielding a huge mace.

He had been blown away time and time again as he became more proficient with the skill, but he had still failed to block a single attack.

At the very least his other natural defenses were incredibly high, so he had not taken any damage.

‘Looks like you still need more work on that one.’ Blitz said with telepathy as he trotted up to Inten who was sprawled out on the floor.

In response Inten fixed a frustrated glare at Blitz, and said, ‘What about you? Have you learned lightning magic yet?’

At this Blitz frown and shook his head. He had been working on it for the last couple days but had not yet figured out he intricacies of learning magic.

He already had the ability to manipulate electricity thanks to his race abilities, but using magic was a different story.

‘No, I have not. But I plan to keep at it.’ Blitz said before walking off.

Once he was gone Inten went back to practicing the mana barrier skill which he had no way to know was still only at level one. Since unlike Marcus, he could not check his status.

Days went by as the three beasts continued to train up new skills and test out what they had learned.

Blitz had learned lighting magic within just four days which for most would be an impossible speed.

Now he had already reached level three and thanks to the spell book that the dungeon had given them access to he had learned a bunch of spells that even Marcus did not know.

‘Electro spheres.’

Casting the strongest spell he had learned, Blitz attacked one of the suits of armor that they could use for training and slowly broke through its defenses.

With his lightning manipulation race ability, he was able to seamlessly control the lighting magic he conjured which normally would just fly off towards its target once cast.

Instead, this allowed him to form a nimbler assault and quickly maneuver the balls of lightning around the suit of armor to bypass its defenses.

Soon enough blitz landed a clean hit on its cack and the suit shook violently before collapsing and disappearing.

As this happened, he held his head up high since this meant that he had passed the trail set before him.

‘Hm that was somewhat immersive, but I would say that your natural ability is far stronger still.’ Eirwen said.

He had already finished learning the skills he had chosen and passed his own trial and was simply observing now. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

‘Yes, I can definitely output more power with my race abilities, but they are less versatile. I can really only shoot off bolts of lightning of engulf myself in electricity. Magic allows me more ways to attack and defend.’ Blitz responded.

Nodding his head, Eirwen could understand this as a practitioner of magic himself.

‘Still, Inten is having some difficulties.’ Eirwen said as he turned his head.

As the strongest among them it would have normally been expected that Inten, a legendary grade magical beast would have had the advantage. But that was not the case.

Inten got by more on instinct and natural talent than anything else. So, sitting down and learning new skills that were more difficult to pick up was not his forte.

Right now, he was still working on his mana barrier and sense he could take hits without any damage he was just throwing himself at the suit of armor and getting pummeled.

It certainly was not an elegant or extremely practical way to go about it, but it was all Inten really knew how to go about it and kept at it.

More day went by this way as Inten slowly got more accustomed to the skill, and finally after facing off against the suit of armor over two hundred times he final created a barrier strong enough to take the hit.

With that he held a triumphant expression on his face.

Eirwen and Blitz, however, just looked exasperated.

‘You know you still need to learn at least two more skills and get their proficiency up to whatever this dungeon deems necessary right? We have been waiting on you for quite some time.’ Eirwen said to Inten who was far behind.

This was the first skill he had gotten to pass and needed to learn two more before they could move on.

‘Come on, I will help you with speed burst. I think that you will pick that one up easier.’ Blitz said.

After that nearly another week went by as Inten precited two more skills, but he finally managed to get the dungeon’s approval and passed.

When he did three chests appeared in the room and the previously dark teleportation circle came to life.

This was proof that they had cleared this room, and the three of them exited approached the treasure chest before them.

‘Hm, a few natural treasures.’ Inten thought when he opened his chest.

Inside were simply three different natural treasures with all of them being fairly good quality but nothing really special.

On the other hand, Blitz had eight natural treasures in his chest that were all the of the same if not better quality than Inten’s.

‘You took too long, so you got less.’ Blitz said with a smirk on his face.

At this Inten grumbled and looked toward Eirwen who had along with a dozen natural treasures also pulled out a skill orb.

‘Looks like I got the most since I finished first. And for my efforts I can now learn wind magic.

With quite the smile, Eirwen activated the skill orb and added a new magic skill to his repertoire.

‘Come on we have more floors to go through. I swear next time I will be the first to finish.’ Inten said as he moved towards the teleportation circle while grumbling.

With wry smiles on their faces, Eirwen and Blitz followed behind Inten and made their ways to the next floor.
