"All of you?", Ivan couldn't believe what she had said because the waitresses he had met were very powerful.
"Yes. That was the reason we were selected for grooming. These without outstanding talent and look aren't able to enter the training program and can only stay at one of the common orphanages the cafe owns."
"But why does their look matter if you are always under an illusion?"
"That is because of the high level service our Beluga offers. If you have a high enough rank then it is possible that the Beluga Corporation awards you with a personal staff which will only serve you. And the one we serve is then the only person who may see our true appearance and decide on who else can see it."
"Oh so it is like that. Then what will happen now that I saw your appearance?", Ivan asked nervously. Hopefully they wouldn't create any problems for him now.
"I don't know. We will have to ask the manager about it.", the waitress too looked uneasy. After all she too would be in trouble depending on the decision.
"Can't we just be quite about it and keep it for ourselves?", he asked, thinking that it would be the safe option.
"No, we can't. Besides the possibility of the illusion having been broken showed up on the maintenance system I won't do that.", she said heatedly. Obviously being strongly against the thought of keeping something from the corporation. It seemed like her loyalty was very strong.
"Alright, alright. It was just an idea. There is no need to get so fired up."
"Whatever. You finish your talk and then we will go see the manager.", she huffed and then left the room.
"Wow you really got a talent of making woman angry and getting into weird situations. But why are the woman always drop dead gorgeous?"
"Pfft, you didn't even see how she looks.", Ivan felt slightly pissed of because of the way the waitress had talked and then having to listen to his mentor making fun of him.
"Alright enough of that, lets get back to what I wanted to talk about with you. Now that you have finished your first mission it is time for you to tame your first pet."
Once he heard these word Ivans eyes did light up.
"Really?"
"Of course. At the same time you will become a real member of the Slavers Alliance and gain the rank F. Of course that also means that you will have to do the five missions a month which you have been able to avoid until now."
"I knew that this would happen sometimes so I think it should be fine. I'll just do some easy and fast missions for that."
"That's the spirit. I have already selected a monster for you to tame and it is an old friend of you."
"A friend of mine?", Ivan had to ponder for a bit to get an idea of which monster his mentor meant, "You mean the boss of the Caves of Leuren?"
"Yes. It is very strong for your first pet. Much stronger than the usual pet but you should be able to do it. And if not you can just try as many times as you need."
"Will it work? After all it is a dungeon creature."
"So you have already realized that the creatures in a dungeon are different from these in the wilderness? But you don't have to worry. In this aspect they work the same."
"How come? I thought that when one tames a creature it would be taken away by the tamer, including its spirit and essence, but dungeon creatures don't have them."
"You really have to tell me how you came to know about spirit and essence later. But on the point of how the tame skill works you are slightly wrong. In reality the taming process is similar to what happens with dungeon creatures. The skill makes an imprint of the creature which is then stored inside the pet dimension. This imprint is more of an copy then a transformation of the creature, so it doesn't conflict with the workings of dungeons."
"Then the summoned pets don't have any essence either?"
"They do, but it is bound to the imprint in the pet dimension and as such can't be acquired without acquiring the pet dimension itself. After all only by it being this way it is possible to summon it again after it has died."
"So it is like this."
"Well I have heard that there are other ways of doing it which is called the contractual way, but it requires much higher base levels and is stuff of the legends."
"Then why doesn't everyone make the boss their first pet and instead have weaker ones?", he then asked the other question he had.
"That's because during the taming process you have to defend against the attacks of the creature you want to tame and nobody is allowed to help you. Not only will the taming fail the system will also punish all parties involved. I guess it is a form of control so it isn't possible to just tame an ultra strong creature with the help of others and then breeze through everything in ones way."
"Oh, ok. That sounds reasonable. Then do I have to be careful of anything while taming the boss?"
"No, just don't kill it during the time the spell needs to finish."
The both of them fell silent and enjoyed their beverage. Ivan had to admit that the tea the waitress had gotten him was very much to his taste. The refreshing feeling helped him to relax and enjoy the silence.
As such the two of them sat in the room with a relaxed atmosphere enjoying their tea and neither of them was willing to destroy the silence just yet. Slowly the minutes went by and Ivans eyes closed. The past day had been very stressful and the rest now made him sleepy.
