I was now standing face to face with her just a few centimeters from the cage blocking her view.
" Don't bother with this creature Unless you can tame this one."
She looked at me And shoved Her fist right into my face..
I fell over from the impact and she yelled!
" GET THE HELL AWAY!"
I stood and once again said.
" Don't bother with this creature!"
She once again showed she didn't care.
With another fist!
I was laid out.
I pulled myself up and Finally.
Through gritted teeth loudly said.
" This Creature will never accept you as Master!"
Her eyes Began to water as she started to turn her eyes Dripped.
I grabbed her hand and Reached out.
She flinched, I guess she thought I was going to hit her back.
I cleaned her cheek!
I am No monster, She Opened her eyes and I explained as best I could.
" Please trust me, all you have to do is tame this one.
Simply ask this creature here, And ill translate for you.
If you can make an offer that is copestetic to both you, He can help you tame the other and you can have them both.
I won't interfere with you!
Also If you will be taking them both as long as they leave in a pair and are treated Fair.
I will help you raise them.
Since I fully intend to work at your stable..."
Her cheeks went red and I could only fist bump myself in my own mind.
She was fiddling Her hands and making fists...
She moved quickly and I flinched.
I covered my face and every single person laughed at me!
"I don't care if you laugh, She scares Me!!"
I heard her giggle and it seems the mood lightened and I let go of a breath I wasn't aware I was holding.
She Sniffling cleaned her face And with an Ominous Resolve.
She Clenched her fists, Turned to the three eyed cat and pleaded her case.
" My name Is Annabel Dime, And one day I wish to be a Light Queen!
I can Use healing magic So You will be safe!
And I am taking this training to become a Veteranary physicians!
And.. and, I am Poor... BUT!
even So, I promise with all my Possessions and on my Brothers Grave!
I Will Not Fail!
Please fight by my side even If I am weak, with you I can grow Strong!"
She clenched her eyes and held her fists Tight.
I was stunned at her words and totally forgot to translate that...
No that was just not the issue here.
The issue was how could One not feel the honest emotions she let go.
It wasn't as if she Needed to be Stronger, One could see her strength.
It was that she strives To be exactly what her image is, She was striving for perfection.
She didn't Realize it but the emotions alone could Convey her words.
Before it registered for me I noticed the Gruff Looking Cat Rub his head on her balled up fist.
The cat in the cage Mewed She looked at them Separately for a spare second.
once again the Room was quiet.
No one spoke up.
Those who were trying hard had been able To even Relax and relate.
Feeling their own emotions well up, Thinking about the reason they came in.
I was awaken to the Honesty, She released the cage for the other little cat.
And I heard their name for the first time, The cat creature is called a Cuberus Eyed Minx.
They have Three eyes now but upon maturing they Will open Their mana Eye.
They are superb for A Mana beast and can Grow rather strong In Techniques with mana.
They are great for those looking to work in shadows as they can Use Shade Magic, The Cuberus Minx is Great at Sneak attacks.
These creatures excels in making use of mana.
I noticed her sit down lotus style and got wrapped up in general.
But I Turned to my two little friends and Made a Clear Picture of my intent.
My auntie showed me this, 'The Equal Soul Pact.'
I gave No terms to them and I stopped myself!!
I walked back over to Annabel, She looked up at me noticing my presence.
When cultivators are wrapped in their own energy they feel the presence of other but if that person was to bother them It would cause a sever back lash.
Thus Just getting close one would have to exit the stage Naturally.
Obviously she felt my presence and Was aware of me she Broke out of her transce state.
Looking me In. the face with a bit of an apprehensive look.
" I am not returning them to you!"
I shook my head And Looked at her I was thinking about how to explain So I just held one Finger up.
I sat down Lotus position in front of her making her a bit flustered but I ignored that.
I looked over at my Little Beasts and They coddled over to me.
The Pup sat on my left and Hedgehog sat one my right.
I didn't need to know their names or anything for right now, I was going to have a Close relationship with both and I will learn with them as we grow.
I looked her in the eye and held my hand out.
She was confused about it but I had no other way to convey My thoughts, This was because she couldn't use mana Transfer.
This made me have to use contact I have to activate the mana in her body.
Then using my own mana To make a connection and then Convey throughout that connection until she can Perceive it.
Thus we Began I sent through her Waves of mana and I felt her hand tighten.
She Squealed as her grip Once again tightened I felt my hand As The bones creaked!
This girl was unbelievably strong.
I endured as the Mana Smashed into a wall, It wasn't Like a rock But more of a jelly the mana hit it and it just bounced back at me.
I forced it through and Once again it bounced.
The idea seemed heavy as the wall was there but not.
I made my mana Like Needles as I shot them Through the wall.
it took me a while Before I was able to crack the shell.
It was around the time My hand broke from her grip.
BUT I BROKE THAT DAMN WALL!
I Felt the Jelly wall Smash inwards with all my force, It sounded like glass falling in mind as the mana connected our Thoughts.
" ~ just listen calmly don't freak out, The voice you are hearing is mine!
We didn't have the time to Properly introduce ourselves.
I am Rin Nemorinsis Morrow Silver, And this is called mana Transfer.~"
I felt her thoughts bombard mine!
She was trying to dig through my head, Into my memories.
For some reason I could not stop her as my mind was washed in wave of mana extracting my very memories.
It started like a projector, I saw events of my past life and my new as she peeled my mind open.
I created a monster and I can't stop her.
Next was my mental database, Everything I knew was Effectively scanned by this girl.
She poked Into even the most intimate moments of my life without hesitation.
I could feel her probing and eventually succumbed to her Muddling my head.
The mana Sent chills down my spine as her far exceeded mine and was richer in strength.
She Used the transfer part way to serious and way to adeptly!
I practically opened a black hole With only a wealth of knowledge and life for her to drain into it.
I felt her stop after what felt like days Mentally as I watched my life all over being conveyed to someone else.
My emotions were picked apart like my mind and I felt Every Notion move through my mana Shrunk as My mind Grew weaker.
All of the mana Drained from me making me snap back into my head I felt pain Split as Things that even I had forgot flashed back.
I Opened my eyes to see her Looking at me with a dark look.
She soaked in as Our eyes locked.
She looked at her beasts and at mine then at me.
I was in some way able to Understand just a look.
I felt weird about it but I then notice I had more memories of which, Were not mine...
I Began focusing inward Again making the equal soul pact, I could feel Annabel Doing the same thing!
I felt her mana Moving as if I felt my own.
This was even closer to what I felt with Rainey, The mana Was familiar as I forged my pact so did she.
I flinched when I felt her start her second one while her first one was finishing, I felt her mend them together as the Power from her soul Welded them at the seems.
Like wise I followed her, Supplied by My own mana and soul power I mended them and welded them also.
I felt the expenditure of power but didn't feel strained after they Began to Work together.
I connected each of the Souls Of the Creatures with their permission.
They were able to check the conditions of their Pact and Choose their options as well as agree.
This Seemed easier than what it was played up to be.
That's when I felt the pressure smash past my dantian, And then my Madan was smashed They both erupted with energy.
My Meridians were very Clear as I felt them Each burn with a fierce power.
Needles covered my Flesh as the Meridians released a Foul Odor, A black ooze Ripped through my skin.
Six small Orange crystals Fell from my Skin.
One from my forehead, One from my chest, One from each leg, and one from each arm.
I watched the blood Ooze out,
I looked over and saw That Annabel was struggling through the pain.
The Crystal's she produced was a black color with an ominous glow.
Eight came from her body and like mine She had small Wounds That bled Fresh Blood.
Her eyes Shot open and were blood shot.
She spun her mana as A mist covered us I felt my arms Tightened as the blood stopped and the flesh Seared close.
Then my legs and Head.
She Sealed All of her wounds and I noticed She was passing out I went to stand up and catch her.
I was wondering why I ended up on the floor, Her familiar caught her and I blacked out.
I woke to a man He was sitting crossed leg humming but he was totatotally floating.
His eyes opened.
" Ah good, Your up, Let's go in the other room, she is still asleep."
He didn't even stand he just floated, I looked around and we were still In the arena.
There was seven cages Left.
But no one was here except us three.
He said " let's go in the other room."
But just floated a distance away from the girl laying on the blanket.
he stopped and spun around.
" Well boy I must say good show!
Top marks."
And not one moment passed before I was confused...
his gaze was Soft as he looked at Annabel.
" And you even Helped another successfully tame two creatures also And get top marks...
Them to pass the secret test?!
That was to get beasts Who didn't want separation To be tamed, Yet you gave up your own beast!
whom you clearly could have forced into a pact."
He looked me in the eyes.
I heard a door open and My brother came in He was looking at the man with Stars in his eyes.
He was frozen as the man Waved him over.
" Ma... Master Ainsley, It is a pleasure!"
The man spoke with happiness.
" No, No, The pleasure is all mine from the last generations genius to have found such a genius.
I cannot fathom the success."
My brother shook his head vigorously as he pointed at me.
" No sir I was not the one who found him.
He found me.
And I had no clue of this talent...
I had an idea when he was talking.
We were at home when I found out he has a way with words, He was after only three days with me!
Able to speak Dwarven sir, And with the way he spoke and sometimes slipped up.
I figured he knew the beast language.
To think he was so proficient!"
I smiled and told them the truth.
' My auntie Helena LUNAMORA taught me.'
They both froze and Looked at me.
the old man coughed shortly.
" the verification is not needed as I knew the dialect and mannerism.
Wolf beast kin.
To think you would be Taught by the cursed Saint..."
My Brother's head shook in agreement.
" Thats Not the issue here, I am here to give you and that little girl ranks.
The guild would also like to offer you three scholarships, We will also be funding the each of you with a Third pact.
Since I know you DweiGege only have one Tame, I am going to offer you the second and third pact.
And as a birthday present since I hear you turned mature today.
I am going to give you a choice.
Would you like to become a Guardian?
I will train you personally and if I am somehow unfit to finish your training the Other masters will Finish out my teachings."
My brothers gave went pale.
He just stood there flat not moving The master Just patiently waiting.
My brother finally Snapped Onto his knees His head hit the floor.
" Yes, please master, Teach this Disciple how you see fit!"
His eyes were watering and the floor had drops of tears.
" DO NOT BOW!
As my Disciple you must hold your head high above all!
even if you fail, I will Not be easy on you."
He looked at me.
" And as my Disciples, little Disciple.
I will expect big things of you."
I nodded not really understanding.
I Kneelt and Reapers fell over me.
" Yes, Grand Master, This Disciple will work hard."
From Behind me A scream Which curled my ears and Split my eardrums.
The old man moved faster than I could as He Flashed past me I couldn't even keep up.
When I turned around he was already beside Annabel.
He went to diffuse the mana in her body but I screamed.
" grand Master Don't!"
He froze and looked at me.
I pointed at myself and Finished.
" She Is Connected with me, If you do that our mana Will definitely Go Boom!"
I walked to her as I was circulating my mana I forced in to my Mandan the mana the Released.
I sat next to her and Forced my mana To circulate the energies and separated them as she released them.
After about three minutes she calmed and then woke up.
She Immediately sat lotus position and Began circulation.
It took her about ten minutes to absorb the pure energy and I felt glass Break In both our souls!
The Mandan Solidifying the Telepathic inside waves, And the mana shelled around it.
The dantian Did the same with the Qi which formed a shell that strained the Chi from the Chi.
I felt another energy form and it was thick like snot As it bubbled Over.
This was a Ki awakening?!
It was a regenerative Energy that Spread throughout my body Just like the other energies it Connected to Annabel.
I felt the shock as the wounds That were just closed completely healed.
The stinging sensation was a bit weird but pleasant.
It was the light inside my Mind that Was hard to discern?!
It was like a Tapestry room.
In it was a Contract with a Paw print, I searched through the light and it seems it was called.
'The share Realm'
It connected with my Tamed beasts and shared the Energies, It also houses my pacts and I was able to expand it!
The room was only housing two when I had plenty of room for three and a small squeeze at four.
It was not solid but The pets could also Rest here.
I felt My mind separate as a void opened near my dantian?!
It was a void realm!?
I felt a connection with my left hand as the Small Black Surfboard Began to rise in heat the little Purple and red orb shone bright.
In my mind I heard ' Void Core complete.'
I looked at my hand And it began to sparkle!
IT was not imaginary either.
I was totally awake not in a transce, nor was I Tripping!
