Master Of Voracious Beasts Chapter 55
Advertisement
After 2 years of going from one place to another, he'd been to different kinds of countries with his fast but cautious movements.
He encountered a lot of natural disasters
Avalanches, Landslides, sandstorms, unknown sinkholes, and even rain of acids and thunders.
He listed them as hazardous and dangerous things besides Soul-Beasts.
He can evade those things using his combat form but not all the time.
He didn't have any unlimited Will energy every day, and if he met a Soul-Beast with his depleted Will energy.
Most likely he would perish.
The first is avalanches.
An avalanche slides down a cliff in the Antarctic-like places filled with cold snows, etc.
During an avalanche, a mass of snow, rock, ice, soil, and other material slides swiftly down a mountainside.
Avalanches of rocks or soil are often called landslides.
Snowslides, the most common kind of avalanche, can sweep downhill faster than jomels fastest form without combat form.
Avalanches occur as layers in a snowpack slide off.
A snowpack is simply layers of snow that build up in an area, such as the side of a mountain.
In winter, repeated snowfalls build a snowpack dozens of meters thick.
The layers vary in thickness and texture.
The bonds between the layers of a snowpack may be weak.
Melted snow that refreezes may cause a slick coating of ice to form on the surface of a layer.
A new snowfall may not stick to this slippery layer, and it may slide off.
During the spring thaw, the melted snow can seep through a snowpack, making the surface of a lower layer slippery.
Added weight or vibration can easily send the top layers of a snowpack hurtling downhill.
For jomel, the best protection against avalanches is knowing where, how, and when they are likely to happen.
He always looks for steep terrain, new snow, signs of previous avalanches, and cracking sounds that indicate settling of the snowpack.

If he can't get out of the path of an avalanche, he will move his arms and legs in a swimming motion to keep his head above the surface.
He pushes snow away from his face to form an air pocket that will allow him to breathe.
But to him, there are two kinds of an avalanche.
The other one he can make sure he is alive without using his combat form but the other one he needs to use it.
Powder-like avalanches occur when the weak layer of a snowpack is on the top.
A powder avalanche is a small slide of dry, powdery snow that moves as a formless mass.
Powder-like avalanches are much less dangerous than slab avalanches.
A solid avalanche occurs when the weak layer lies lower down in a snowpack.
This layer is covered with other layers of compressed snow.
When the avalanche is triggered, the weak layer breaks off, pulling all the layers on top of it down the slope.
These layers tumble and fall in a giant block, or solid.
Once a solid avalanche starts, the solid ice shatters into many separate blocks.
These snow blocks break up into ever-smaller pieces.
Some of the pieces rise into the air as a moving cloud of icy particles.
The cloud races downhill at very high speeds.
The thickness and speed of solid snow avalanches make them a threat to even using his Precognition to predict it.
It is still very dangerous, so he needs to use combat form to protect himself from it.
Storminess, temperature, wind, the steepness of the slope, terrain, vegetation, and general snowpack conditions are all factors that influence whether an avalanche happens and what typically occurs.
Snow avalanches are most likely to occur after a fresh snowfall adds a new layer to a snowpack.

If new snow piles up during a storm, the snowpack may become overloaded, setting off a slide.
Earthquakes can set off avalanches, but much smaller vibrations can trigger them as well.
Like what happened to him in the past, he tried to sing a song from his favorite actor and comedian Jack Bl*CK, because of boredom and loneliness.
He likes Jack's quotes.
My life is good.
Really good.
I get to wake up every morning at 5 am.
And make some soup!
It's the bassist.
I love it.
I get to lay in a bed by myself.
All of my life.
It's fantastic!
It's Jomels way to combat his loneliness.
There's also a funny line, his favorite.
I don't know why you always have to be judging me, because I only believe in science.
This made Jomel laugh cracked alone while laughing so hard.
Even though he had a brave heart, he can't just become the best of it like in anime.
When a user or the protagonists learned a new technique and beat an Overpowered villain.
His path to braveness needs a test and many more to make it stronger.
On that day.
He is singing his favorite song from one of Jack's movies.
Also his favorite movie...
N*acho Libre.
The song is Encarnacion.
Here are the lyrics.
When the fantasy has ended
And all the children are gone
Something good inside me
Helps me to carry on
I ate some bugs
I ate some grass
I use my hand
To wipe my tears
To kiss your mouth
I break my vow
No no no no no no wait Hossain
Unless you want you
Then
We break our vows together
Encarnacion
Encarnacio-o-o-o-on
Encarnacion
Encarnacio-o-o-o-on...
After that Jomel heard a Tumbling and rumbling sound of the earth and snow from above a mountain range he was passing by.
In there he experienced another life and death experience he won't forget.
At first, he thought that they are just some snow puff like cotton candy.
Because he experienced another one and it's not that dangerous for him.
But when he looked again, he saw giant spear-like things hurling towards him.
Hurriedly, he cast his combat form to resist the attack of nature towards him.
Really a life lesson for Jomel.
Never sing a song when you are in cold places especially if your voice is horrible.
Or cold beauty mother nature would be angry.
Yep, Cold girls are usually quiet, that's why they hate noise like what Jomel did.
Or so he believes in.

The Emperor's Chef
"Cook like your life depends on it, kid. Because it does." Charles had an enviable future lined up for him. Training from the age of five by some of the finest chefs in the world. Schooling at a top culinary academy in the capital. An honorable position as heir to House Boulier, a line of merchant-lords who have charmed the rich and powerful with their cooking for centuries. And in a single night, it all burned to ash. When the outbreak of war destroys his hometown, Charles is charged with escorting his family’s sacred treasure—a recipe book passed down for untold generations—out of harm's way. But his simple mission grows complicated when he’s captured by one of the most feared battalions in the world: the Spears of Mercy. Life as a prisoner in their war camp is brutal and uncertain. Charles has few allies and even fewer strengths to rely on. Only his skills in the culinary arts, honed over a lifetime in the kitchen, are deemed useful enough to keep him alive another day. But he’s not out of hope just yet. With a dash of wit, a pinch of luck, and some very creative cooking, he might just find a way to recover his family’s legacy and take back his freedom. This project is a food-themed fantasy that centers on cooking and chefs. The setting spans a wide world featuring ingredients/recipes both real and inspired by traditional fantasy. I'll eventually be publishing it as a full-length novel (or series of novels depending on length). These are the first draft chapters. I'll likely be re-writing more than once, then editing before publishing, so impressions and feedback are quite welcome. If you like the story so far and you're interested in being an early reviewer for the final product, feel free to message me. I'm looking for an artist to make some concept art and a cover (the cover shown here is just a temporary placeholder). A stand-alone novel for now, but it may turn into a series down the road.
