The weakest tamer, who was expelled because they could only tame the lowest-ranked trash monsters, awakens the "Breeder" ability. Eventually, they become a hero commanding extraordinary divine beasts and mythical creatures. - Chapter 64
**Episode 064: Evolution Begins**
Since the Silver Canyon is more dangerous than the Noir Forest, we search together without dividing tasks, prioritizing safety over efficiency.
“Ah, here’s the Silver Truffle mentioned in the request. And over here, we have the Land Fruit.”
However, we only find the items requested. It’s quite challenging to find the materials necessary for evolution since they are relatively rare.
“Pip!”
A bit further in, Prue calls out to me while searching the vicinity.
“Oh, this is Thunder Grass.”
There, we find yellow grasses shaped like lightning bolts, one of the evolution materials I’ve been searching for – Thunder Grass.
“Chit, Puh.”
With that find, other familiars begin discovering evolution materials one after another.
At this rate, it seems we’ll be able to evolve much faster than expected.
Monsters appear even during our exploration. Since I end the battle quickly when I step forward, everyone trains while I give instructions on defeating the monsters.
“Shaah!”
This time, a Killer Mantis appears, a giant mantis monster.
Its huge scythe-like arms are incredibly sharp, and getting hit by them would be disastrous.
“Lita, Shielding Wind! Lily, Feather Needles! Luna, Frost Breath!”
“Leave it to us!”
“Chit, Kuuts!”
Lita boosts everyone’s defense, while we focus on ranged attacks, creating openings with Lily’s attacks and slowing down its movements with Luna’s frost breath.
“Prue, Poison Shot! Chloro, Blind!”
“Pip, Nyah!”
As a finishing move, Prue launches a poison attack, and Chloro casts a blinding spell.
The poison attack turns the Killer Mantis’ body pale blue, and a dark mist covers its eyes.
“Shah, Shah!”
Suddenly blinded and feeling unwell, the Killer Mantis swings its scythes randomly in confusion.
However, its joints are frozen by Luna’s Frost Breath, rendering it unable to move properly.
“Asura, Shadow Energy! Luna, Ice Needle! Prue, Aqua Bullet! Lily, Fireball!”
Taking the opportunity for Asura to attack as well during the level-up process, we bombard it with ranged attacks.
“Shaaah…”
The Killer Mantis, with a significant part of its body missing due to the direct hits, is severely injured.
Since insect-type monsters are tenacious, it’s crucial to finish them off properly.
“Lily, Fire Breath!”
“Chiiiii!”
As if to seal the deal, flames emitted by Lily envelop the Killer Mantis, burning it up. All that’s left is the smoldering corpse of the Killer Mantis.
After the corpse cools down, we extract the magic stone and resume gathering materials.
“Gyagyah!”
While defeating monsters and collecting materials for a few hours, Asura was the first to evolve.

――――――――――――――
Asura has evolved into an Assault Lizard. Its body length has increased to about one meter, with shiny black scales, sharp claws, and fangs, resembling a sub-dragon like a Wyvern rather than a lizard.
Since we hardly have members with high close combat abilities, if it continues to grow, it can be expected to serve as an excellent defensive wall.
Finally, a member has evolved to C-rank.
“Puh!”
It’s Paula.
Since we already had holy water from the forest, all we needed were five moon fruits. Hence, she was the first to evolve.

――――――――――――――
Paula has evolved into an Angel Rabbit.
There’s little information about this monster. It’s quite rare, and hardly anyone has seen it.
I never expected it to evolve into such a species.
The most significant change is its appearance.
Small, adorable wings shine on its back, and a golden ring appears above its head, fitting for the name “Angel.” However, it seems it can’t fly.
And its skills. Heal and Cure have evolved into superior versions.
I’m familiar with High Heal, as Chris and Lucky used it, and I’ve used it myself through proxy contracts. But High Cure is a rare skill seldom seen.
With the ability to cure many illnesses, it’s likely that with this skill, even Mom’s illness could have been cured.
I’ve heard rumors that individuals capable of using High Cure are immediately sought after by scouts. There are also suspicious rumors surrounding this.
This is something that absolutely must not be known to others.
Special evolution – it’s an incredible benefit even though it’s only evolved to C-rank.
I feel like I’ve stepped into dangerous territory, sending chills down my spine.
