Chapter 174: (Summoning Circle)
Chapter 174: (Summoning Circle)
As he activated his [Summoning Circle] a magic circle appeared from the ground it was filled with different combination of unknown words and symbols.
"What is this?." Catherine asked
"A magic circle... I think this one is related to summoning." Scthach answered her.
"Summoning?." Eva wondered
"According to what you said earlier our soon to be companion is related to this summoning?." Alexia asked
"That's right, each of you will gain a contracted beast." He nodded.
"Really? Can we pick?." Rose asked
"I'm pretty sure it's random." Kiara said
"She's right... this summoning circle here is connected to another realm... I think it's a realm were Legendary beasts rule. Using this circle we will have a way to contact that realm, it depends on your talent or any special things you have to attract a beast." He explained.
"There is another realm, huh? It's quite surprising that my kind is the ruler." Clara said she was also what you call a beast.
"There should also be a dragon right? A dragon can also be called a beast in other terms." Violette asked.
"Mhn... Dragons should exist, possibly." He nodded.
"This contract is like the rumored slave contract right? Then, wouldn't it be unfair for both Violette and Clara if we treat their kind like that?." Catherine asked.
"Not really..." Violette shook her head and smile as she turned to Clara to let her explain.
Clara notice she smiled and explained, "Yes, there are two classifications of beasts. I'm what you call human-like beast so of course, I'm also treated the same way as everyone and that is one of the classification.
The other one is what you call a True-Beast they are the kinds who don't have any intellect they only move with their instincts. these kind of beast are commonly the one to be contracted with.
The difference between the two classifications are that the first one, human-like beast have intellect since the day they were born...we have human features and of course we could transform to a beast.
Now, the other one is different... from the day they were born they don't have any intellect like us... and they also don't posses a human form with beast features... since the start they are a True-Beast... still they are usually stronger than us but they don't have the ability to think so we are still superior." Clara finished explaining.
"I see," The others understood.
"Although you are right? But you don't know the most important thing..." Scthach smiled.
"Important thing?." Clara got confused she was really good regarding this but she forgot the most important thing? How?.
"What is it?.' Violette was also the same as Clara.
"It seems in this era it's isn't common anymore. What you call True-Beast in a certain extent improve their ranks and get more powerful they will unlock their intellect and the ability to transform into a human with beast features. Although, it will take too long for a True-Beast to gain intellect but the moment they do... they are more stronger and fiercer by several levels to beast like you and what's more their bloods are more purer."
"I don't know what exactly happened for it to be not known in this era. I guess, I was gone for so long. Before... I didn't know if it was true or not as it was only legends at that time. It was said there were no Human-like beast was it? There are only True-Beast that exists at the start. It was not said how Human-like beast were born... that's why you're ancestor should be a True-Beast." Scthach finished explaining
"What?." Clara got surprised there were no record about this in the books.
"Is it the same with the Dragon race too?." Violette quickly asked.
"That's right, Dragons are the same. Dragons are really strong." Scthach said while checking out Violette.
"Thanks." Violette smiled.
"I'm pretty sure I know how human-like beast were born... it's simple really... Of course, it was a True-Beast who gained it's human form and had sexual intercourse with a human... see? So simple." He shrugged.
"Eh?... Well, maybe." Scthach rolled her eyes at his answer.
"Anyway, let's start... who's up first?." He asked.
"Just to be sure... what ranks are the summoned beasts are?." Alexia asked.
"Hmm... I don't really know. All I know the beast most suited with you will appear." He was not experienced in this.
"It should be one level above or below you... from what I know." Scthach said.
"Little Scathy, you will also join right? You don't have any contracted beast." He asked.
"...I do have a contracted beast before... I don't know if it was still alive... but the contract was already gone so it's fine. I'll join." Scthach thought for moment before saying.
...
While they were talking... somewhere around the center of the Devils Domain a huge monster beast opened it's eyes...
This was a monster beast that was in deep slumber for who knows how many years... The moment the monster beast breathed all the other monsters in the surrounding trembled. They felt as if the most dangerous predator has awakened to devour them.
Roar!!!
The monster beast roared causing the earth to quake.
After the roar, a lot of more huge monsters got awakened.
Roar!!!
It seems the Devils Domain will be chaotic.
...
"I want to be first." It was quite surprising the shy Rose was the one who volunteered first.
"Rose is first then." He smiled
"What do I need to do?." Rose asked.
"You first put a drop of blood in the summoning circle and then pour your magical power in it." Alex said, he already have the knowledge to use the summoning circle the moment he gained the skill.
"Okay..." Rose nodded as she bit her thumb causing it to bleed. Then, she dropped a blood in the circle. This kind of pain was too small for her.
As Rose was about to pour her magical power in the circle... he interrupted her.
"Wait for a sec..." He stopped her as she also bit his thumb and put a drop of blood in the circle before saying, "Okay... it's fine now. Pour your magical power."
"Mhm..." Rose nodded and poured her magical power on the circle.
"What did you put your blood too?." Scthach got curious.
"My blood is kinda special... so I think the beast who will get attracted with her and my blood will be very special..." Alex smiled.
Scthach didn't say anything and just like the other women... all of them were waiting to see what kind of beast will appear.
As Rose's magical power was almost depleted the magical circle shined in a bright light. In the instance the light disappeared a huge butterfly appeared. It was not really big but if you compared it to a normal one it is way bigger. The size should be like a human head.
"This is?..." He wondered.
With her eyes widen in surprise Scthach said, "Heavenly Butterfly."
