Chapter 198 Contract Contractor, "Kidnapping", Awooooo...
The commotion continued, the fighting was extremely fierce, and neither the two people nor the beast dared to stop for even a moment.
Ryan floated in the air to guide Lai and Seya, but after running for a long time, they were still blocked by a mountain.
He continued to lead the two men into a cave, where they finally stopped.
"We're safe for now."
Hearing the voice in their minds, Lai and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. They ignored the mud and collapsed onto the ground to rest, all panting heavily from exhaustion.
Tata lay sprawled on the ground, curled up like a pancake, her little pink tongue sticking out from the heat.
From time to time, the roars of two magical beasts fighting each other and the sounds of various trees being destroyed could be heard from the woods in the distance.
"Phew, phew, Ray, are you alright?"
Seyah noticed that Lai's expression was becoming increasingly strange. Lai was frowning, clutching his back, his forehead and neck covered in large beads of sweat.
Even if he was tired from running, he would never be in this state. Besides, farming and growing vegetables at home are physically demanding jobs, so his physical strength would never be like this.
"Uh, it seems like I injured my lower back."
"Quickly use a healing spell to treat it!" Seya said anxiously.
"good."
Despite the pain, Lei's hands trembled as he gathered wood elemental energy and used a healing spell to treat the injury on his lower back.
Just as the pain subsided, she vomited a mouthful of blood. Startled, Tata jumped to her feet.
"Lay! Lai! The beast doesn't want Li to die! The beast doesn't want Li to die! Awoooooo!"
Seya was also startled by Laiyi and quickly stepped forward to help him, but Laiyi blocked her with his arm.
"I felt a tightness in my chest just now, but I feel much better now, I'm fine."
"No, let me see."
Saya forcefully pulled open Ray's clothes, revealing a large patch of bruises on his back. Ray's skin was still fair, making the bruises appear even more gruesome.
"Tata, don't cry, I'm okay."
"Waaaaahhhhhhh..."
The little monster was crying so hard it couldn't stop, making a huge commotion around it.
"If you cry again, you'll really die."
As soon as Ryan spoke, Tata immediately stopped talking, but tears were still falling down her face as she sobbed, looking utterly pitiful.
Lei and Seyah both breathed a sigh of relief.
Ryan floated behind Ray and saw the horrifying scar on his back.
"Where else does it feel uncomfortable?"
"My chest hurts a little."
Lei did not shy away from seeking medical help and answered truthfully.
Ryan then had Seyya pull off his shirt, exposing his chest, where bloodstains and red marks were clearly visible on Ray's ribs.
"Is it serious?"
"I can't believe it," Seya asked uneasily.
"Um."
Ryan's simple "hmm" made Seya and Tata's hearts clench.
"It's not a big problem."
With just one sentence, He instantly calmed both of them down.
Ryan's wings slowly unfolded from behind, and Lai, sitting directly opposite Him, could clearly see the magic circle slowly forming behind the wings.
One layer after another, gold and green echoing each other, intertwining with one another.
Why is a problem that could be solved with a healing spell so complicated? Is he seriously injured, which is why he's making such a big fuss?
Lei didn't quite understand, but he didn't have the right to comment at the moment.
Seymah and Tata watched the two from the side, not daring to disturb Ryan's treatment.
In a matter of seconds, the magic circle behind Ryan was formed, and Ray was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.
This magic circle was definitely not as simple as he had imagined. Ryan's light-colored pupils seemed to have a golden light in them, and his gaze was fixed on him as if he were being deeply looked at by something indescribable.
The runes on His body seemed to be glowing.
Ryan and the magic circle behind him gave Lai a sense of oppression he had never felt before.
"......"
Ryan said something in a language no one could understand, but strangely enough, Ray felt like he understood it.
The question was about some kind of contract, and his intuition told him he should give an affirmative answer, but subconsciously, Ray was unwilling to compromise easily.
It's a contract!
From the moment she saw Ryan's wings, Saiya had a vague feeling that something was about to happen.
When the moment finally arrived, he was genuinely happy for Ray.
Lei actually gained the Elementalist's approval and is about to become the new Contractor!
Say yes! Say yes!
Seya watched anxiously from the sidelines, but dared not make a sound, for fear of affecting the contract ceremony between Lai and Lian.
What are you hesitating about?
Ryan's voice echoed in Ray's mind once more.
"I'm not from here."
Ray answered in his mind as well.
The secret that could not be spoken aloud was thus exposed to Ryan.
"That's not a problem."
“Say your name.”
"Ray Victor".
After Lai finished speaking, nothing happened.
"The real name."
"simple."
As soon as he finished speaking, the magic circle behind Ryan seemed to be activated, spinning and emitting a dazzling light. Finally, it condensed into a beam of light that hit Ray's forehead and was imprinted in his soul.
At that moment, Lei suddenly had many strange feelings.
It was the tranquility of a gentle breeze, the whisper of water droplets falling from the tips of leaves, and the hope of a seed breaking through its shell.
He seemed to resonate silently with the entire forest.
The pain gradually disappeared, the fatigue vanished, and my body felt like it had been reborn.
In a place unnoticed by anyone, most of the plants around him withered.
"The human body is too fragile. If your bones break, your internal organs will also crack."
If it weren't for Ryan, Ray wouldn't have realized how badly he was injured. It was just that the carriage overturned and he hit a tree.
When Seya saw that Lai had recovered, he knew that things had succeeded, and he couldn't contain his joy.
This is a living elementalist and contractor!
Tata pounced on Lai's lap and rubbed her head against Lai's chest.
The direct contact between bare skin and Tata's body hair created a very strange sensation. Lai picked Tata up and put her clothes back on, which had been scattered to the side.
"Why is there no sound outside?"
Lei frowned slightly and asked, causing Seya to stiffen.
Yes, why is there no sound outside? When did it end? I didn't notice at all.
"Aww!"
A beast's roar suddenly came from the cave entrance, and Sayya felt the hairs on her body stand on end.
"Awooooo!"
The little monster responded enthusiastically to its father, its eyes sparkling like stars.
Lei and Seyah kept their eyes fixed on the cave entrance, ready to leave at any moment.
They couldn't tell whether the giant monster outside harbored ill intentions towards them.
call--
Heavy breathing reached the cave entrance, first revealing a blood-stained beast's mouth and fangs, then a huge, ice-blue beast's eye.
After its eyes rolled and it got a clear look at what was inside the cave, a beast's paw reached into the cave.
Tata, like a fluffy ball, was gently pulled away by the scaly claws of the beast.
Tata circled the ground again and again, getting covered in dust.
He straightened up, feeling dizzy, and shook off the dirt and bits of grass and branches from his body.
"Awooo!"
Beast Daddy!
"Aww!"
Kid!
The two beasts, having not seen each other for several years, were overflowing with excitement.
"Tata is calling Warcraft Daddy, and Warcraft is responding to Tata."
Saiya provides real-time translation.
"Awoooooo!"
I miss you so much!
"Awooooo!"
"Let's go home!"
After the monster finished speaking, before the little monster could react, it carefully picked up Tata's scruff of the neck. With a flap of its wings, it soared into the sky, leaving Laiyi and Seya with a hole of dust in its wake.
"Cough cough cough! Tata and his father just left like that?"
Things were moving too fast; Seya was still in the midst of the scene where the two magical beasts had just met.
"Cough cough."
The two were choked and felt uncomfortable; all they could see in the sky was the gleaming silhouette of the giant monster in the sunlight.
Lei felt a sense of emptiness, and Seya felt the same way.
"Let's go back, that's for the best."
"That's what Lei answered."
"What about the cracks on the Tata Demon Core?"
Seyah looked at Rae, and the two looked at each other.
"If you're going to do a good deed to the end, you've already helped raise their child for so long, why not help them with treatment one last time? Don't you think so?"
Saya made a witty remark with a straight face. Lai didn't refuse directly. After a pause, Saya smiled after hearing Lai's low response.
"Um."
"Let's go. They flew off in the direction of the carriage. Let's gather what we can still use and then go find them."
Lei has made his decision.
"Okay!"
A smile returned to Saiya's face.
"Wait for me! Ray!"
The two walked quickly, as if they didn't want to waste any time.
Ryan floated silently behind the two, minimizing his presence as always.
He was somewhat curious about the memory that suddenly appeared in his mind after the contract was signed.
In that scene, a black-haired, brown-eyed boy who looked exactly like Ray was sitting behind a metal frame with two wheels.
It was dusk in summer, and a gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness to the sweltering heat.
The boy held a milky white thing in his hand and ate it in small bites. It tasted sweet and cool.
"Grandpa, the ice cream is delicious!"
"It's delicious! I'll buy you more tomorrow!"
"good!"
"Ha ha."
The image disappeared, but the taste of that "ice cream" remained deeply etched in Ryan's mind.
He knew this was one of Ray's fondest memories.
The cold wind high in the sky made Tata's fluff fly around.
Tata saw their horses and carriages from the air, and in the distance, she saw the monster that her father had defeated.
To take care of its young cubs, the monsters did not fly very high.
He had a lot to ask the cub.
I want to know if he's been doing well these past few years, whether he's had enough to eat every day; I also want to ask him if it's hard for a little baby out there, and if he misses his father and mother.
The cubs seem to have gained a lot of weight and no longer look as chubby as they did when they were little.
He had missed the crucial growth period of the cubs, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
"Awooooo?"
Where is Mother?
Panic flashed in the monster's eyes; he was somewhat relieved that he couldn't speak because he was holding the cub in his mouth.
How am I supposed to explain this to the cubs who are still in their infancy?
The monster's enormous wings created powerful gusts of air, causing the treetops they passed to tilt and sway.
Tata knew her father was having trouble answering her, so she put aside the question and became engrossed in the thrill of flying high in the sky, letting out unrestrained howls.
At this moment, he felt like the happiest little monster in the world, and the thought of meeting his mother soon filled him with even more joy.
How he missed his father, his mother, his elf uncle, and everything in his father's territory!
He didn't know if the big peach tree in the territory was still there, but he wanted to pick the sweetest fruit for his mother and Lai.
They also need to ask their father to find lots and lots of edible plants for Ray. He loves growing vegetables, right? He'll definitely love it!
The air seemed to be filled with the purest happiness of the little monster.
