Kneel before me and serve the PTA for a hundred years, and I may forgive you.\" She demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you read that line in a novel?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a smutty novel, wasn't it? A genuine bodice ripper sort of spicy evening read.\" Karl joked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Socrate flew up to the referee's stand with Remi wrapped around his neck like a necklace, and called down to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the contestants are done trash talking, we will get this started.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, Elder. I would hate to waste your time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Elder nodded, and the woman drew her sword. Then Karl blocked off all energy in the area using [Mana Suppression], before hitting her with [Overwhelming Presence], [Dominating Power] and [Pacifism].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes glazed over, and the sword dropped to the ground as her knees buckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Karl started the illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, she found her child tugging at her sleeve, urging her for a kiss before school. Only, she was wearing a hideous pink formless nightgown, and her body was incredibly obese.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gone were her decades of devotion at the gym. She was back to her peak post pregnancy weight, over fifty kilos heavier than she was now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mommy, don't worry, I'm not embarrassed. You work so hard to get me to school on time. Here, I will help you to your feet, I know how hard it is for you to walk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman shrieked in terror as she stood, and the illusionary boy cried as she pushed him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not real. It's not real.\" She stammered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mommy? Why did you push me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl teleported into her line of sight, disguised as Amaldor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, there you are. The Headmaster would like to have a word with you. He believes that you might have been slacking on your duties as a mother, as your son is failing his classes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would like to speak to you about reassigning the chairmanship of the PTA while you take a few years away from stressful duties to focus on your health.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no. This isn't real. I am the head. Nobody else could take my place. How dare he try to fire me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She waved her hand ineffectually, and Karl created a layer of gravel over the sword she had dropped, hiding it from sight before she realized this was an illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, there is no need for a public spectacle, we can handle this privately.\" The Immortals in the stands watched in horror as a respected member of the parental community had a full-blown mental breakdown, slapping at the fake Wrath Demon after she failed to activate any of her skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sleep, and you will feel better in the morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl put a heavy dose of [Mental Domination] behind the command, and her eyes closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, he changed the setting to a generic bedroom that he hoped was like hers, and made the illusion nearly pitch black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Copying Rae's new skill, [Undead Minions], he called forth a group of zombies to scratch at the windows. They were making a racket like they were trying to break in as the woman stumbled about in the dark, unable to see without a skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The window broke, and she screamed, then tried to run for her child's room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only, Karl hadn't made more rooms, the door was just a prop on the wall shaped barrier that she struggled frantically with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For extra effect, Karl added the screaming of a child, zombies in the hallways, and then terrified pleading. Then, he had zombies attempt to climb in her broken window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She smashed at them with a lamp, not even thinking to use items from her inventory as Rae assisted Karl by directed the show, adding increasingly horrifying images, until she finally had Karl call Spectral Knights with [Undead Army] to bang at the walls, while the voice of the child screamed in agony and pleaded for his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman promptly passed out, soiled herself and began rocking in the fetal position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl used [Disintegrate] on the mess to preserve a bit of dignity for her as he looked up at Elder Socrate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>{How the hell should I know? Normally, they hit each other.} The Elder muttered, just loud enough for the crowd to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The challenger is unable to continue. This challenge is over.\" He announced in\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a louder tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl let the illusion fade, but the woman didn't get up, just cried and rocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[WINNING!] Rae cheered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been waiting a very long time to do that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other ladies of the PTA rushed in with the challenger's actual child to try to console her, but she just shrieked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zombie, they turned my child into a zombie! My poor baby. Mommy is with\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>you, We can both go together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop her!\" Elder Socrate shouted as she called her blade to her hand and\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>prepared a skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl hit her with [Mana Suppression] and put an [Eternal Lightning] barrier over the child as the other women panicked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone get her to the healers. She needs treatment fast. And for the love of all the gods, don't let her have any weapons.\" Elder Socrate demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rae hopped into the arena, laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, that went wonderfully. I think that my idea for the scary things in the\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>dark worked wonderfully.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the PTA members turned to her. \"This was your idea? Do you have any\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>idea what you've done?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rae nodded eagerly. \"I am quite sure that our idea broke her without even laying a hand on her. If you would like, I can make a proposal to introduce it as an anti bullying measure in the schools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I call it 'non-corporal discipline! I think that it will be the next big thing in mental fortitude training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cara howled with laughter, while Amaldor shook his head in dismay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That was not at all how I thought that fight was going to go. I was certain that Karl was going to get publicly shamed for beating a woman with no notable combat skills. But this was something entirely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To think, her biggest fears were getting fat and seeing zombies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wrath Demon had completely missed the nuance, Cara realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think that it was the fat part that got to her. If she gives you trouble in the\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>future, just ask her if she's put on a few kilos, then tell her you like her new outfit to soften the blow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1098,"2026-05-28T17:46:15.506Z","2026-06-01T04:28:27.968Z",1,"novelbin.me","83d3f776c2ba7aa45d8ab00f81d9b5a2f1781c7499238127808c7dc127538662","the-first-legendary-beast-master-chapter-1525","the-first-legendary-beast-master-chapter-1523",1781,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-first-legendary-beast-master-cover.jpg"]
