In the grassland near the village of Norhada, Lisa's target was a bison-like beast called Dasesni. Even though it looked like bison, Dasesni were solitary creatures. They were not monsters as they did not have a monster core, but were just animals. But they were quite strong, even stronger than some monsters of the same level.
This particular Dasesni was a level 184 beast. It was not an intelligent beast but a regular one. Still this beast had a high defense and was also quite strong in terms of strength. Lisa's assignment today was to kill this beast within only 10 minutes. She herself was level 185 so she slightly had a level advantage but the advantage of just a single level was not really a big deal.
Elena was watching over Lisa while completely hiding herself. She wanted to see how Lisa was going to use her knowledge to hunt this beast. This was the first time she was going to hunt alone, so Elena gave her an easy target.
First of all, Lisa remembered the characteristics of a Dasesni. It had a very tough hide, so attacking it head on would not be a good idea. But the underside of the beast did not have any protection so that part was its weak point. But it had very short legs, so getting to its underside would not be easy work.
So she decided to do a sneak attack on the beast's sides and to try letting it fall on its back. That way, the underside of this beast would be in plain sight and she would be able to attack it freely.
Lisa was a strong elemental mage and she used a spell called "Wind Impact" to hit the Dasesni on its side. This spell was not very strong in dealing damage but it had the highest chance to knock someone off.
Her plan was successful and the Dasesni really fell showing its underbelly to Lisa. She also did not waste any time and instantly charged toward the beast to deal the finishing blow with a spear.
But the time this Dasesni took to recover its balance was insanely fast. Even before Lisa's attack hit him, he was in his fit. Still, fortunately she was at least able to land a blow on the beast's soft part and he became slightly hurt. That also affected his movements and the beast slowed down a bit. Using that chance, Lisa focused heavily on that injured part and was able to kill the beast within the required time limit. But she was able to complete her task barely in time.
Elena did not evaluate her performance and gave her the second assignment. There was a large lake in that grassland. And the lake was also filled with many tasty and rare fishes. One fish among them was very famous throughout the world. That fish was called a Mysehana. It was a level 150 fish but its test was better than even many level 200 plus fishes. And Lisa had to catch this exact fish within two hours to complete her second assignment for the day.
Even though Mysehana was not a very high level fish, it was still very hard to catch. It hated sunlight and most of the time stayed deep inside the lake. It was also very sensitive to any kind of presence, so catching it unaware was also almost impossible.
If Lisa wanted to catch this fish and also within the time limit then she needed to think out of the box. First of all she used all her knowledge to identify some of the spots where this type of fish might gather. After that she prepared to dive into the lake.
Mysehana really, really hated sunlight. So they would not come out on the surface for any reason. So she had to go inside the lake to catch one and she did just that.
But just going close to the spot where it might be hiding would alert the fish and then it would run away. That was something Lisa did not want. So, she used a technique that she inherited from Luphisesus' inheritance. It allowed her to temporarily keep an animal weaker than her to be under her control. During this time Lisa could also see through the eyes of the controlled being too.
So, she used this technique in a few small fishes that also liked to live in a dark environment and send them to her marked locations as scouts.
She had identified a total of 17 locations where Mysehana might be hiding. After going through 13 spots she was able to find none so she became very disappointed. It had already been almost 1.5 hours and she had very little time left.
But fortune smiled on her in the 14th spot and she finally noticed a fish resembling the Mysehana. So, she used all of her controlled small fishes to gather close to it. Mysehana had an organ which had the special function of detecting any presence but with so many small fishes surrounding it, that organ was unable to differentiate the presence between a fish and a human. So, Lisa was able to come close to the fish.
But now was the hardest part. Even though the fish was not very strong it was still a level 110 one. And if Lisa wanted to catch it she had to knock it out in a single blow.
Doing that was obviously hard work and now Lisa's knowledge came into use. She had read it in a book that, a Mysehana's brain was always on a hyper active mode. But for that reason if they suddenly received a massive amount of influx in a single moment then their mind would freeze and it would lose its consciousness.
So, Lisa made all the little fishes to swim in an erratic way and also created several water ripples around the Mysehana. This sudden change and many things that were happening around it were able to successfully overload its consciousness and it fainted. So, Lisa was able to catch it quite easily after that.
But doing all this took more than 2 hours and she technically failed the second test, even tho she thought she did her absolute best. And then again without saying anything about her performance Elena gave her the third and the last task for the day.
Just outside the grassland there was a small woods. That woods had a lot of medicinal herbs and rare plants. But that woods was also home to a very territorial and troublesome monster called the "Chipagamas" who were basically red tailed monkeys.
These monkeys always lived in a large group and were a pain to deal with. But Lisa had to go inside the monkeys territory to steal a rare alcohol which the monkeys made using the rare herbs from the woods. And she had the rest of the day up until evening to finish this assignment.
...
While Lisa was busy doing her assignments, one another person was also busy doing the same. It was none other than, the beast god, Zenkaplua. After Elena complained about him to Ster, she gave Zenkaplua a punishment.
As his punishment, Zenkaplua was made to manage the domain of Valor and battle frenzy, which was something that Ster controlled by herself. Even though they were some of the least important domains that she controlled and regulated, it was still a lot of work.
Not only that, but Zenkaplua had to perfectly follow the module that Ster made to manage those domains properly. And memorizing and following a set of instructions was very hard for a muscle headed fool like him.
Even this their was several gods to maintain the overall balance of the world, the Supreme Goddesses were the core of that balance. Without the supreme goddesses, even if all the gods perform their duties perfectly, the end result would still be zero. If the supreme goddesses did not combined the works from all the gods together than the balance of the world would be destroyed instantly.
So, the workload that the supreme goddesses managed were very heavy and even a slight portion of that workload was insanely hard work even for a high god. And currently Zenkaplua, who was not even a high god, had to manage such heavy duty which made his cry in despair but also appreciate how hardworking the supreme goddesses really were.
Asteria had already told him, the reason behind his punishment. Naturally, he was astonished to know that Elena was stronger than the supreme goddesses. It was hard truth for him to swallow. He then almost peed his pants after realising that he was making such a strong powerhouse mad. And now he wanted to apologize to Elena for all his disrespect. And Ster told him that she had forgiven him already and he just needed to suffer the punishment for a little bit more and then he would be released.
Just like that Zenkaplua, who was not really guilty of anything other than being a bit foolish suffer through his punishment.
