However, the high-level mages had to transform into weaker monsters, even just monsters of the second ring level, and had to be extremely cautious when turning into the "Dark Wolf" of the Totem World Dungeon.
The difficulty of transforming into a six-ring abyss demon was actually about the same as transforming into a second-ring monster, the Dark Wolf?
"What kind of Harry Potter 'Animagus' transformation taboo is this? You can turn into a moderately powerful medium or even large animal, but you can't transform into a feeble magic creature that can be stomped to death with one step?
Is this the reason the mages of the transformation stream repeatedly stress, 'Beginners should not attempt to transform into monsters, no matter how weak those monsters are'?"
Kael muttered to himself.
Transformations within the same bloodline origin, even if you turn from a human into a demon, fundamentally, everyone was of the same origin and wouldn't go beyond limits.
After all, creatures with flesh and blood had their origins corrected by the world's will from the very start.
But transforming into a monster could easily exceed the framework and lead to uncontrollable potential risks.
By that time, mages of the transformation stream who turned into trolls would have no choice but to hope that Lady Luck would favor them when they tried turning into monsters.
"Does it have to tamper with the origin of the bloodline? If irreversible consequences occur, the subordinates will surely raise a commotion."
Adela sighed and said.
"Adela, do you know what the biggest difference in opinion between you and me is?"
Kael smiled as he spoke.
Adela shook her head. After all, she had just joined the Lancaster Territory not long ago and didn't know what kind of personality Kael had in private.
Kael raised his head and looked at the large group of gluttonous slimes jumping around on the lawn, catching huge hoofed deer. His expression became serious.
Noticing the subtle change in atmosphere, Adela fell even more silent.
"Adela, I heard that the original commander of your Elf Ranger Corps was a thorough warmonger?"
Adela nodded and said: "And then you directly blasted her to death with magic."
When she said this, her expression was indifferent as if she were saying "Have you eaten?"
No look of hatred, nor a hint of hostility, she seemed like a silent puppet.
"You're indeed not very good at socializing."
Kael patted her shoulder with a smile and said: "So many of your compatriots have died, and you don't show any expression when facing them, nor any expression when facing me. That's very dangerous."
Adela remained silent for a while, then forced a slight smile which looked awkward.
Kael shook his head and said: "Previously, you were mainly responsible for combat and interacted with your compatriots less frequently?"
Adela nodded.
She knew she was of a silent nature.
And considering that what she said sometimes might be thoughtless and offend people, she usually kept silent and focused on fighting.
That's also why, as a member of the Holy Land, who, in principle, was capable of leading an Elf Ranger Corps, she chose to act as an assistant to another Holy Land member.
Leading a team and handling everything... Only through actual experience can one understand how troublesome it is.
She rarely showed a bit of a troubled expression.
Seeing this made Kael laugh a little.
Since his incubus bloodline advanced, his ability to perceive others' emotions had enhanced further.
"If I were you, at the moment of choosing to surrender, I would have held out a bit longer, maybe even gotten injured.
Then, I'd have put on an unwilling expression, torn between fear for my compatriots being eradicated and my forced surrender.
If your acting skills aren't good, at least show some emotions while surrendering, or else some elves who don't see the situation clearly will think you're a turncoat who'd betray at the first sight of a strong enemy.
This will greatly hinder your control over the Elf Rangers. During the final meeting in the dungeon, I initially wanted to remind you, but then I thought it better to let you experience some malice from your compatriots firsthand."
Adela was left speechless by these words.
Although she got to her current position entirely due to her superior combat ability, didn't she have even a minuscule strength in communication?
"That's why I say, you're always silent when you shouldn't be, and you display emotions when you shouldn't."
Kael smiled, his voice tinged with a trace of coldness: 𝓃ℴ𝓋𝓹𝓊𝓫.𝒸𝓸𝓂
"Adela, sometimes, moderately showing emotions in front of your subordinates can be far more beneficial than building an unapproachable image for yourself.
If you don't work on regaining some of the goodwill you've lost from your compatriots, it means the link between me and the Elf Ranger Corps will lose its function.
Adela, with the Longshot Strike Team, you surely understand, this isn't a request but a command. I need the Elf Rangers to exhibit their proper value."
