About Making The Low-Tier Tamer Profession Top-Tier Using My Previous Life's Knowledge Volume 1 Chapter 1

TN: I hate typing long introductions and stuff so without further ado let's begin.

————————————————————————————————————-

There was a high-difficulty dungeon of which not even half of the so called chosen geniuses — known as the Holy Knights and Heroes — could conquer even after becoming veterans.

I — a Tamer — have arrived at the lowest level of that dungeon, together with 3 of my tamed beasts.

Ahead, the door leading towards the Dungeon Master's chambers is visible. Opening the door will start the battle.

The door was opened, and what appeared beyond it was a single Monkey-Type monster, brandis.h.i.+ng its long staff. It is the dungeon's boss — Son Goku.

Giiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeee!!!!!!

As soon as we entered the room, Son Goku unleashed a barrage of thrusts towards my tamed beasts and I using its Ruyi staff.[1]

High speed attacks that leaves countless afterimages using its staff is one of Son Goku's specialties. It was a brutal attack that is capable of pulverizing a Holy Knight instantly without much resistance. However-

I easily saw through it.

After all, Tamers are a cla.s.s that grows by absorbing a fraction of the battle experience of their tamed beasts. By making these powerful tamed beasts fight frequently, even a Tamer can obtain power that would easily outcla.s.s Holy Knights or Heroes.

Having said that, these tamed monsters are still the main combat potential.

First, I had one of my Tamed beasts, an Awakened Ultra Slime, intentionally take a hit from the Ruyi staff, melting the part which pierced its body with its acid.

The damaged staff would then be unusable for an hour, drastically reducing Son Goku's combat potential.

@#$%%^&!

Following that, my other tamed beast, an Awakened Lich, began chanting. While I do not understand the language of the Lich species, I could tell that it is a powerful spell.

Gi, Giiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

Right after the Awakened Lich began its chant, Son Goku started to hug its head in agony.

I see. So it was a spell to activate the effect of the circlet worn on Son Goku's head. (ED: O.o San Zang is a Lich now?)

While the circlet provided Son Goku with frightening power, it has the demerit of tightening around its head when a specific spell is applied.

Seems like that was the purpose of the spell.

However, there is no way Son Goku would just sit idly by without counterattacking.

A bunch of its hair was roughly pulled out and blown towards us. Each strand of its hair turned into mini-clones of the original and attacked us.

But at that moment, another of my tamed beasts, an Awakened Yog-Sothoth, leaped in front of us.

"Keh, bringing out slimy worms. All of you, drown in the Sea of Knowledge!!" (Yog-Sothoth)

With that, countless b.a.l.l.s of light were shot out and Son Goku — along with its clones — was blown away.

Along with that attack that resembled a carpet bombing, thunderous booms echoed throughout the chamber.

After a few seconds, the lights began to subside. The clones were erased without a trace, leaving only the lifeless body of Son Goku to be seen.

Subjugation Complete.

"This is the strength of a Tamer…" (MC)

These words slipped out of my mouth unconsciously.

That's right. Out of all the combat professions, the Tamer is the strongest.

There is only one reason for that.

Tamers are the only cla.s.s that can utilize the unique spell [Awakening][2], that can power-up even common tamed beasts to ridiculously absurd levels of power that only can be called legendary.

Originally, these three tamed beasts — Ultra Slime, Lich, and Yog-Sothoth — aren't existences that are powerful enough to defeat Son Goku by themselves…However, by successfully awakening them using my unique magic as a Tamer, defeating the likes of a high-difficulty dungeon boss proved to be nothing more than a trivial task.

In the face of such power, hardened Heroes, Holy Knights, and even Sages would all be blown away like sc.r.a.p paper without exceptions.

This was the most common of common sense of this world.

……Well then, time for some rewards.

With that in mind, I pulled out some Beast Chips using Storage Magic.

"It's Beast Chips time, you guys."

I called out while I opened and placed the bag of chips on the floor.

All 3 tamed beasts instantly jumped at it.

It is said to be delicious to any magical beasts, no matter the species, truly a wonder chip.

While they were voraciously munching on the chips, I collected the spoils of the battle.

The only items were the Ruyi staff, and a cloud-shaped vehicle capable of flight, the [Nimbus Cloud].

The corpse of the monster Son Goku has no material worth, and since the circlet on its head only garners interest from people with inhumane hobbies, I left it as it is.

I stored the items using Storage Magic.

However—

"……s.h.i.+t!"

As the sensation of being pulled by Storage Magic creeps over my arm, I braced for death.

It is said that the chances of this happening is less than one in a hundred-million but if it does, the caster is guaranteed to die — a Storage Accident.

To think that such a thing would happen to me……

"Get out of the way! This useless piece of s.h.i.+t of a Tamer!" (Youth)

Shouted the youth as I was blown away.

That was the moment I regained my memories from my previous life.

…… [People who die in a Storage Accident, inherits their memories and spatial inventory as they reincarnate]. I seem to recall hearing about this at some point.

I thought it just some nonsense, but since it has happened to me, it seems to be the truth.

Alright, time to figure out my current situation.

It seems that in this life, I am called Varius.

A common 8-year old villager, with a job apt.i.tude unchanged from my previous life as a Tamer since birth.

As for the youth that had sent me flying, it seems that he's the son of this region's feudal lord.

15 years old, with a job apt.i.tude as a Holy Knight.

There actually aren't many n.o.bles that flaunt their arrogance at the commoners; but for a youth at the height of p.u.b.erty, it is only natural for one to flaunt his superiority with his position.

That's why both his speech and actions were not that big a deal…is what I'd like to say, but it seems that I can't turn a blind eye to that statement.

A Tamer is…useless?

While it's excusable that given the social standing, being looked down upon is unavoidable, to think that such complaints are slapped onto a profession.

Moreover, the profession known as Tamers surpa.s.ses every single combat job cla.s.s, including the feudal lord's son's profession — Holy Knight. It is the strongest combat profession.

Using that as a reason to look down on someone…there is a limit to being unreasonable.

……Oh well. I'll think about it later.

After all, there's a bigger problem in front of us right now.

We — both me and the feudal lord's son — as well as a number of commoners from the lord's territory, are approaching a single magical beast.

"Heh, I can hunt a single measly orc by myself!"

The lord's son shouted, a.s.serting his authority.

It's true that a single orc isn't even an opponent for a 15-year-old Holy Knight.

But…that's just if the opponent is really just a mere orc.

Unfortunately, the opponent isn't actually an orc, but the infant form of the magical beast, Chouhakai.

On the surface, it seems strikingly similar to an orc, even veteran adventurers have trouble telling them apart from the outside.

But it is evident in combat. Its strength is close to two fully grown adult Heroes even in its infant form.

It's entirely possible for the lord's son to receive a mortal wound from just a single attack.

Previously, I could have easily killed such an enemy in one hit via an Awakened Ultra Slime's ramming attack…however, I have zero chance of winning without my tamed beasts.

In other words, it is a dire situation.

As I was thinking as such, I recalled an important point.

[People who die in a Storage Accident, inherits their memories and spatial inventory as they reincarnate]

In other words, I currently possess the Ruyi staff obtained from subjugating Son Goku.

The top speed of an extension from the Ruyi staff is faster than the speed of sound.

Just by willing it to [Extend], it is capable of morphing into a weapon of destruction filled with kinetic energy in no time.

The cycle of extension and shrinking of the staff is absurdly fast, capable of unleas.h.i.+ng tens of thrusts in a second at maximum output.

With such an attack, not even Chouhakai would stand a chance.
