Sovereign of the Firmaments

'Even though it is a powerful rank 3 spirit beast, it is fully focused on white tigers. I can use it as an opportunity to kill it.'

'As for the white tiger, it can't even stand properly after receiving so many injuries. So, I will strike a deal with it.'

Soon, Lucas planned everything as he looked at the three-headed werecat.

'I better get close to their fight and wait for an opportunity.'

He could have used his intermediate spell; however, for that, he needed to be within a close distance. Moreover, he didn't want to waste his entire magic power on a single spell.

As for the basic spells, they would be useless against a rank 3 spirit beast unless they were level 3 or higher.

So, Lucas decided to move closer and wait for his chance to sneak any attack on the three-headed werecat.

'Roar'

The werecat seemed like it was tired of playing with the white tiger and moved closer to the tiger which fell to the ground.

'Slash'

Just when the three-headed werecat was about to give the white tiger a final blow, it sensed a silhouette behind it and hurriedly tried to jump away from that place.

However, two of its hind legs were cut by Lucas with his rank 3 short sword.

'Thud'

The three-headed werecat fell to the ground as it didn't have a support to stand and looked at Lucas angrily.

'Slash'

'Slash'

'Slash'

Before the werecat could use its skills or move away, Lucas didn't give any time as he continuously slashed it and every time he slashed, his experience points for the short sword mastery will be increased.

'Fireball'

In the end, Lucas used his level 1 basic spell into one of the huge cuts he made on the werecat's body.

As for the white tiger, it looked at Lucas with complicated thoughts; however, the baby white tiger was awed by Lucas' flashy moves with the short sword.

Moreover, when it saw the fireball, there were sparkles in its eyes because it was its first time seeing such a thing appear in the mid-air.

'Boom'

Without any surprise, the three-headed werecat's body exploded.

'Ding,

        The host killed a rank 3 three-headed werecat.

'Ding,

        The host gained 10 sovereign points, a rank 3 dark beast core and Knight skill crystal.

'Ding,

        The basic spell 'Fireball' is upgraded to level 2. Please check the details in the 'spells' sections.

As usual, Lucas got the system notifications that made him excited because he got extra rewards compared to the previous rank 3 spirit beasts he killed.

'Is it because this spirit beast is from the viscount ground?'

Lucas didn't know why the system gives him more rewards sometimes and another question that bugs him was, where the hell the system was getting these things from.

However, he didn't ask and the system didn't answer.

'Also, my second basic spell is upgraded to level 2 and my basic heal spell will reach level 2 after a few more uses.'

At the same time, Lucas was happy about his 'Fireball' spell.

After learning how to increase his mage rank from Beck yesterday night, Lucas selected his next two spells and they were 'Fireball' and 'Basic heal' spells.

Adding with the 'Lightning bullet', Lucas will be completing one of the two criteria to enter the lesser mage rank.

After repeatedly using the 'Fireball' for the last six hours, Lucas managed to increase its level to level 2.

'I will check the rewards later. For now, the Winged white tiger is my first priority.'

With that thought in his mind, Lucas looked at the injured white tiger and the baby white tiger.

'Swoosh'

Before he could say anything, the baby white tiger jumped into his embrace and licked his face.

'Huh? What the hell?'

Lucas was surprised at the actions of the baby white tiger; however, he allowed it to lick his face even though he was annoyed.

He wanted it as his first contracted spirit beasts. So, he didn't say anything.

"I want to strike a deal with you."

After a few moments, the baby white tiger stopped licking his face as it rushed back to its mother when it heard the growl from the mother white tiger.

So, Lucas spoke his words without wasting any time.

The longer he stayed here with the blood of the three-headed werecat, the more dangerous the place would become. So, he wanted to know why he came to the rescue of the white tigers.

'Basic heal'

At the same time, he cast his 'Basic spell' on the mother white tiger to heal the injuries on her body.

Even though it would not heal the severe injuries on her body, it was better than nothing.

'Thanks for helping me and my child, human. Please continue your words.'

Firstly, The white tiger thanked Lucas for saving them as she nodded her head allowing Lucas to say the details of the deal.

The special spirit beasts like white tigers are capable of speech when they reach rank 3. That's the reason why Lucas was confident in speaking with it.

"I want to form a contract with your child."

Lucas didn't waste his time by saying nonsense as he directly said about the contract.

'...'

Hearing his words, the white tiger didn't become happy or angry; instead, it looked straight into Lucas' eyes.

As for the baby white tiger, it looked at his mother and Lucas with confused looks in its eyes wondering what Lucas was saying to his mother.

'Roar'

'Roar'

Just as Lucas was waiting for the reply from the white tiger, he heard the roars of the spirit beasts from the distance.

Apparently, they were not very far from where they were standing.

"The choice is yours. If you want your son to be eaten by other spirit beasts, then I will leave from here."

Lucas knew how to use those roars to his advantage as he urged the mother white tiger.

The thing is, in her current state, she could barely stop a single rank 3 spirit beast and judging from the roars they heard just now, she was sure that there were more than three rank 3 spirit beasts.

"Grr"

Gritting her teeth, the white tiger made the decision, 'You can form a contract with him; however, I will be following you until I am sure about your character.'

'Haha'

Hearing that, Lucas could not help but reveal a slight smile on his face as he walked towards the baby winged white tiger and picked it up before caressing its pure white fur.

The baby white tiger was not fearful of him; instead, it enjoyed Lucas's caress as it let out purring noises.

'Drop'

Soon, Lucas dropped his blood on its fur which was mysterious absorbed into the fur without leaving any stains.

'Ding,

        The contract with the 'Winged white tiger' is successfully formed. Please take good care of it as the spirit beast has the potential to become a Sovereign beast.

'Huh? It's over just like that?'

Lucas was surprised with the quick contracting process; however, he looked at the white tiger and said, "Let's go."

Soon, Lucas and one normal white tiger and a baby winged white tiger rushed out of the Viscount grounds.

'Wait a second.'

Just as he entered the Baron grounds, Lucas ran along the border and all of a sudden, he stopped, 'Didn't I decide to become a Lesser knight today?'

When he thought about it, Lucas looked at the injured white tiger and thought, 'I will heal her first before focusing on the rank 3 spirit beast hunting.'

With that thought in his mind, Lucas found a quiet place in the Baron ground to take some rest while hearing the injuries on the white tiger.

'Ding,

          The baby white tiger's loyalty increased to 90 points.

'Ding,

            The baby white tiger's loyalty increased to 95 points.

Every time he cast the 'Basic heal' spell to heal the injuries on the white tiger, he would get the system notifications regarding the loyalty.

'Looks like I did the right thing by not killing the mother white tiger.'

Lucas muttered to himself as he quietly played with the baby white tiger while healing his mother.

'Ding,

          The spell 'Basic heal' is upgraded to level 2.

'Ding,

          The host's magic sea's capacity is increased by 10 units.

        Magic sea:- 19 units / 210 units of magic power.

'Oh. Now, I just need to learn two more intermediate spells to become a Lesser mage.'

Lucas was satisfied with his progress; however, the main issue was he had to find two intermediate spells, which might be a little difficult.

'Looks like I need to pay a visit to the Mages guild soon.'

Only the mages guild has a wide range of spells and their prices are less compared to other stores in the town. So, he thought about entering it to see whether they have any good skills.

Even though the Mages guild became the public enemy number one after the dungeon run, it was still standing after bribing the top families and the top guilds with some spell scrolls.

'Roar'

'Roar'

While Lucas was lost in his thoughts, he heard the same beast roars that he heard earlier and frowned.

'Are they hunting us?'

Even though they were not far, they were not close either. So, Lucas came to that conclusion as he thought while looking at the baby white tiger in his arms, 'Looks like they were after him.'
