I Am Not A Goblin Slayer-Chapter 507 - 287: Joining the Team

After advancing to level 5, Gauss began specific ability testing the next day.

The first priority was the 3rd Ring spell.

Through a series of tests, he found using the Flying Technique and Fireball Technique had become much easier.

Although he could master the 3rd-level Spell in advance when he was at level 4, it was still quite difficult to use.

Now there is a feeling of ease.

Especially the Flying Technique.

Whether it was flight speed, agility, or endurance, all had significantly increased.

Gauss floated down from the sky, feeling the enhanced "air combat ability," and nodded in satisfaction.

The other companions were also practicing their own abilities.

Only Ying wasn’t there.

She went to find a quiet place to seek a breakthrough.

Every profession, even every individual, has a very different way to break through.

For someone like Gauss, it’s a conventional meditation, while Aaliyah needs to feel nature, and some Warriors would find professional sparring partners to seek breakthroughs in combat.

Everyone has their own way, there is no correct promotion method, only the most suitable way for oneself.

For Ying, she doesn’t need teammates to follow; instead, she needs to find a secluded corner alone.

"Advancing from level 5 to level 6... should be quite an improvement."

According to Albena’s experience, every Professional who breaks through from level 5 to level 6 can randomly awaken a skill suitable for themselves, and all abilities will get a significant improvement.

It’s unknown exactly how long it will take.

Although Ying said the team doesn’t need to wait for her in place, she will find them after a successful breakthrough, but Gauss obviously couldn’t just leave without a care.

It was the perfect time for him to familiarize himself with the improvements brought by the breakthrough.

"Boom!!!"

In the distance, Albena descended from the heavens, swinging the double-edged axe and slashing on a huge stone.

Accompanied by a booming sound, the mountain-like hard stone cracked open with a deep fissure.

The crack spread rapidly, instantly crawling like a spider’s web over the entire stone.

"Boom!!"

The complete boulder shattered into pieces instantly.

Albena landed steadily, hoisting the giant axe on her shoulder, and wiped off sweat in satisfaction as she looked at her achievement.

Honestly, due to being busy with blacksmith work over the past period.

Her attacking skills had become somewhat rusty.

This was also why she didn’t participate much in attacks when handling recent commissions.

Now, for some reason, she wants to quickly regain proficiency in her attacking skills.

"Clap, clap, clap."

"Really impressive."

Gauss walked over to her, applauding, not shying away from admiration.

The destructive power of a Warrior is indeed terrifying.

Even for him, it’s hard to withstand that strike’s power in a normal state.

Of course, in actual combat, he wouldn’t take damage head-on.

Facing an opponent like Albena, naturally, he would choose to leverage greater mobility to maneuver and find opportunities to attack.

His close combat tactics are generally used to bully opponents whose physical capabilities are inferior to his own.

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses.

Performance must be chosen based on specific situations to unleash the corresponding strength.

"Haha, it’s okay, I’ve been slack for a while." Albena chuckled, feeling happy inside that Gauss noticed this moment.

"Ahem, Albena, come over here, I have something to confirm with you."

Suddenly Gauss turned to the main topic.

Albena followed his gaze to Aaliyah and Serdur, who have long been waiting at the folding house door, and suddenly felt something.

She caught a glimpse of Gauss’s handsome face, her heart racing.

"Coming...coming."

They entered the first-floor hall of the folding house.

The table was already set with tea and food in advance.

Several people had done some exercise earlier, and now had a good appetite.

Thus, they started discussing the main topic while eating.

Although Ying was absent for this matter, Gauss had already confirmed her opinion in advance.

Gauss picked up the white teapot and poured a cup of tea for everyone.

"This time we gather to chat a bit and hold a meeting."

Upon hearing this, Albena slowly put down the food in her hand, sat up straight instinctively, and took a sip of tea.

Gauss turned his gaze to Albena.

Although the commission was completed a few days ago, Albena did not leave the team.

Actually, whether Gauss or Aaliyah and others could vaguely guess her intentions.

But dragging on like this isn’t ideal; naturally, it needs to be thoroughly confirmed, whether it’s leaving or joining, or if there’s any other arrangement.

They’ve spent some days together and are considered friends now, speaking frankly would ease everyone.

"Albena, I would like to ask on behalf of our team, do you have the intent to join us?"

Gauss didn’t beat around the bush, that’s not his style, asking directly.

"I do, Lord Gauss, I hope to join your team." Albena nodded without hesitation, seemingly without much thought.

Even though Gauss had already sensed Albena’s thoughts beforehand, he didn’t expect her to be so straightforward.

"What about your blacksmith shop?"

Objectively speaking, Gauss feels it’s a choice that requires some consideration.

"No problem, I’ve been gradually selling my stock these days; give me some time, and I should be able to handle it." Albena indicated this was not an issue.

She had been quietly preparing for it.
