Chereads / The Primordial Tamer / Chapter 3 - Nova

Chapter 3 - Nova

After thinking for a while, Orion finally decided what the name of the young wolf that he had contracted was. He had been thinking of this name for a while.

"I have been thinking about this for a while. I will give him the name Nova that means new or star." Orion said to the young wolf. Ember was smiling when he heard about it.

"Wow. It is not a bad name. Why do you give it the name?" asked Ember to Orion.

Orion gave Ember a pretentious smile and said, "Nova can mean a new star, and I hope that this wolf will be the new strongest beast."

Ember looked at Orion in disbelief. Orion was very arrogant if he named the young wolf like that. The name that meant it would be the strongest was very arrogant in his mind.

Even so, Ember ignored it and continued rubbing Nova's fur. Its fur was so soft, and it felt very good to rub on it. Nova also didn't reject the rubbing that he received from Ember.

Orion noticed Ember's disbelief but decided not to comment on it. He was confident in his ability to train and grow beasts, and he truly believed that Nova had the potential to be the strongest.

As Ember continued to rub Nova's fur, Orion began to think about his Primordial Mastery talent and how he could use it to its fullest potential. He knew that he needed to keep it hidden, as it was a rare and powerful talent that could make him a target for others.

Orion also began to look at the information panel of Nova once again before going to sleep. He focused his attention on Nova and thought about it, and the beast panel appeared.

---

Name: Nova

Species: Grey Wolf

Grade: Common Beast

Skills: Claw, Charge, Bite

---

He found out that the young wolf's name had changed from a grey wolf to Nova. The panel was also simple. After he looked at it, he put Nova into his beast space back and told Ember to sleep, preparing for the next day. Ember could only nod and sleep.

The night soon passed after, and the next day was the day they went to school. Ember was pretty excited that day because it was the day that their teacher would bring them to the forest to contract their first beast.

"Orion, I am very excited about my contracted beast. What do you think will be good to be my first beast?" asked Ember. Ember was very excited and asked Orion about it. Orion was also a diligent student, so he knew about some stuff.

"Ooo, I don't really know about it, but surely a fire element common beast will be the best for you, but I don't really know about the forest where our teacher will bring us later." said Orion to Ember.

Ember nodded and agreed with Orion's suggestion. He hoped that he would get a fire element common beast, just like what Orion suggested. Ember also hoped that his Flame Enhancement talent would come in handy when he contracted his first beast.

The two of them soon arrived at the school and met up with their classmates. They were all very excited about contracting their first beast, and some of them were already discussing what kind of beast they wanted to contract.

Their teacher, Mrs Claire, arrived shortly after and greeted her students. "Good morning, students! I hope you're all excited about today. We will be going to the forest to contract your first beast. Before that, let me remind you about the contract process."

Mrs Claire explained the contract process to her students. She told them that they needed to drip their blood into the beast they wanted to contract, and if the beast accepted their blood, then the contract would be complete.

After explaining the contract process, Mrs Claire led her students to the forest. The forest was a dense and vast area, and the students could feel the excitement building up within them as they walked deeper into the forest.

As they walked, Mrs Claire suddenly stopped in front of a clearing. "This is the place where you will contract your first beast. Remember, be careful and choose wisely," she told her students.

The students were thrilled as they entered the clearing and looked around for a beast that they could contract. Ember was also looking around for a fire element beast that he could contract, but he couldn't see any.

Orion noticed Ember's confusion and approached him. "Don't worry, Ember. Just keep looking. You might find one soon," he said to Ember.

Ember nodded and continued to search for a fire element beast. Suddenly, he saw a red and orange lizard-like creature crawling on the ground. He approached it and began to observe it.

Ember was overjoyed when he saw that the beast was a fire element common beast. He immediately dripped his blood into the beast, and the contract was complete. The Flame Lizard accepted Ember's blood and became his contracted beast.

Orion was also happy for Ember and congratulated him. "Congratulations, Ember! You have contracted your first beast!" he said.

Ember was beaming with joy as he looked at his newly contracted beast. He knew that his Flame Enhancement talent would come in handy when he trained his Flame Lizard.

Ember began to look at the Flame Lizard's information that he had just contracted. He focused on the Fire Lizard, and suddenly, his information panel appeared in front of Ember.

---

Name: Flame Lizard

Species: Flame Lizard

Grade: Common Beast

Skills: Flame Breath, Claw, Tail Whip

---

The name and the species were still the same because Ember had not named it yet. Ember began to think about a cool name that was good for his Flame Lizard.

Ember was ecstatic about contracting his first beast, and he couldn't wait to train it. He named his new Flame Lizard "Blaze" and rubbed its scaly back, feeling its warmth. He also checked the panel one more time and found out that its name had changed to Blaze.

As Ember continued to examine Blaze's information panel, he noticed that the beast's skills were Flame Breath, Tail Whip, and Claw. He knew that the Flame Breath skill was the most important, and it would come in handy when they went to battle.

"Blaze, show me your Flame Breath," said Ember as he stood up and stepped back.

Blaze opened its mouth, and Ember saw a small flame appear at the back of its throat. Suddenly, Blaze breathed out a small flame that reached a distance of three meters. It wasn't very powerful, but Ember knew that it would get stronger as Blaze grew.

"Good job, Blaze. You'll be a powerful beast in no time," said Ember as he smiled at Blaze.

Orion was also happy for Ember and his new beast. He knew that Ember's Flame Enhancement talent would make Blaze even stronger. However, he also knew that Ember needed to be careful not to overuse his talent, as it could drain his energy.

"Ember, remember to use your Flame Enhancement talent wisely. It can be very draining," said Orion to Ember.

Ember nodded and thanked Orion for his advice. He knew that his talent was powerful, but he didn't want to overuse it and put himself in danger.

The rest of the day went by quickly as the students trained their newly contracted beasts. Mrs Claire supervised them and gave them tips on how to train their beasts effectively.

The rest of the day went by quickly, and before they knew it, it was already evening. Mrs Claire announced that they would be returning to the school, and the students quickly made their way back.

Ember was still excited about his new beast, and he couldn't wait to start training it. Orion, on the other hand, Orion was looking forward to train Nova and sew what potential the young wolf had.

As they were walking back to the school, Mrs Claire called out to them. "Before we end the day, I want to remind you that your beasts are not just tools for you to use in battles. They are also your companions and partners. Treat them with respect, and they will be loyal to you."

Mrs Claire's words resonated with the students, and they all nodded in agreement. Ember felt even more grateful for his Flame Lizard, knowing that it was not just a weapon but also a friend.

Orion also thought about what Mrs Claire said and promised himself that he would treat Nova well and build a strong bond with the young wolf.

When they arrived back at the school, the students went to their dormitories to rest. Ember was still excited about his new beast, so he spent some time training it and getting to know it better.

Orion, on the other hand, was also playing with Nova to get to know it better. As the night grew darker, Orion decided to call it a night and began to sleep anticipating for the next day.
