Capítulo 13: Rewards, Lieutenant Jigo and Former Classmates Rank!
September 12, NE176
Two days later, Tristan had fully recovered. Actually, it only took a day for him to recover. He just needed a few more days to adjust his state and mentality.
Beldum kept annoying him, saying it wanted to fight a beast, so Tristan have to teach it how to fight. Tristan also thought it was a good idea, but the System immediately warned him to let the little brat reach the average standard of beldum before fighting. It would only be counterproductive and waste the foundation of growth if he let this little guy fight now.
Tristan also thought this was reasonable, so he just nodded. From his experience, he trusts the judgment of the System. He can't count how many times it has saved him with its suggestions.
When beldum heard it, it immediately made a noise and scolded the system.
The system didn't budge against this little guy and also scolded it.
[You little brat was really hard-headed, like Tristan, sighed. Wait until you pass the infant stage, little brat!]
The beldum seems became angry and made a noise again.
[Hoho, admit it, brat, you're an infant, a little brat who had just been born!]
The beldum used Tackle but how can it touch the system? Even Tristan was helpless with this system sometimes.
[Little kid, little fellow, little baby, little infant, I admire your guts and because of that, I declare you as the strongest... little brat!]
Beldum was angry but also helpless, so it looked at its owner pitifully with one eye and almost cried.
Tristan's heart softened a bit and pat the beldum and said to the system "Okay, okay, can you stop now, how old are you now and still acting like a child? Are you a kid?"
[Hmph, I'll let you get away with it this time, little brat. And also, I don't have a gender. I don't have an age. I can act any age I want.]
Tristan just rolled his eyes and ignored it.
Since the beldum was given by the system, it also had an access to communicate with the system like Tristan. And because of it, it's become noisy every time, whenever there's a fight between these two. Tristan didn't stop it, actually, he enjoyed it a bit. Since the beldum was born, it became lively like a family.
Huh, family?
Then, he suddenly remembers his younger sister before and regrets how he treated her before. If there's a chance... If there's an opportunity...
A chance huh? He looked at the sky and shook his head and walked away.
I hoped so.
A few minutes later, Tristan reached the residence of Jigo.
"Boss Jigo, I'm here!"
"Oh, you're here? Just wait a bit..."
After a few seconds, Jigo came out and said "Let's go"
"Okay!"
...
20 minutes later, they appeared at Station 90.
In front of Katrinidad Alliance Hall, they were escorted by the soldier toward the room of Major Anderson.
Knock knock
"Come in" Major Anderson shouted inside the door.
"Sir!" Jigo immediately saluted.
Tristan looked at Jigo's action and he also saluted. "Sir"
Anderson looks at both of them amusedly and smiled and moved his hand down "Sit down"
Then they both hurriedly find a seat near.
Then Anderson saw the little brat on the back of Tristan floating above while spinning around looking confusedly at its surrounding.
"Little brat come back here!" Tristan feels ashamed by the actions of beldum and shouts.
Hearing the word 'Little brat', the little brat became angry and approached Tristan and made a noise.
"Okay, okay... you're not a little brat, just behave here" Tristan immediately hugs it and didn't let it get away.
The beldum felt dissatisfied and snorted but he didn't make a move again.
"It's your contract beast?" Anderson said while looking at beldum. He didn't know this kind of contract beast even in the book.
"Yes, It's a summoner contract, sir!" Tristan nodded his head and said.
There are two types of contract beasts, the summoner contract and the spirit contract. The summoner contract and spirit contract are different because the summoner contract is the blood that is connected to both beasts and humans that makes a bond with each other. While the spirit contract is more connected, both parties can even combine in one to fight and of course, there's also a disadvantage, the spirit contract was deeper and harsher because both parties are connected to the soul so, once one of the parties died, the other partner will suffer consequence and it will take a long time to recover, normal and some rare medicine cannot cure it.
Both contract beasts were rare to find even though some Crown Stages don't have them because this type of beast is more intelligent, had its own heritage, they are mostly hiding far away from human territory. And even if there is one, they must take a measure if the beast contracts were really suitable for them.
"This type of summoner contract looks like it is from the Vaylad Continent, but I don't recall something like this, but anyway, it's a rare one, you're lucky, kid."
"Hmph, I'm not a kid," Tristan snorted and said.
"Tristan!" Jigo immediately poked Tristan's shoulder and glared at him.
Tristan pretended not to notice and ignored him.
Anderson looked at Tristan and, according to the information, this kid was really grumpy and straightforward. He didn't even care who he was dealing with. But Anderson didn't care and actually liked this kind of personality because most of these types of people are genuine in expressing what they want and are more trustworthy.
"Well, don't mind, I actually like it, so, don't bother with it. You're right, you're not a kid, you're already a man, just like you save Commander Jigo, and for that, I and all the citizens of Katrinidad want to express deep gratitude to you. Thank you very much, young man." Anderson stood up and bowed at him.
Jigo was shocked, our Major bowed his head? It's really rare huh.
Tristan actually wants to refute the "Young man", but seeing the Major bow his head and thank him, he shook his head nervously and blushed a little bit "No, no, I actually do, do nothin, ah... eh, I only helped a little bit"
(WTF! What am I nervous about? Hmph... anyway I really helped a bit, and since the Major thanks me, I will let it pass the word "Young man")
Seeing Tristan's reaction, Anderson just smiled and patted his shoulder "Merit is a merit, I will not neglect people here who contributed to the city, and you are one who really helped us in time of crisis, so, of course as a Major, I have the ability to reward you. Here, I don't know if it's enough to help your breakthrough the Expert Stage, but I hope it is" Major Anderson really put much effort to find an item for Tristan in treasury.
"Lightning Stone!" Tristan's eyes lit up when he saw the dark blue color stone in front of him and he immediately take it.
Jigo also takes a deep breath when he looks at the Lightning Stone, then looked at Tristan with envy, He knew how much this kind of stone is, it was 700,000 Alliance Credit Points, and he forgot how many years it took for him to get this kind of thing. And of course, it just envies and nothing else. He was still happy for this kid. But he suddenly thought of something. If this kid successfully breakthrough into the Expert Stage means they are already in the same stage?
No, after I return, I must train to breakthrough (M), or else this kid will be proud.
"Major, you're a really good person, thank you very much" He really needs this type of stone to improve himself because if he is just breakthrough by himself, it may take 3-6 months. But with this stone, there's no problem breaking through Expert within 1-3 months. Now, besides Jigo, he also has another person he likes, which is Major Anderson. As long they give him something good, it means they're a good person.
"Well, it's nothing, it's your contribution." Major Anderson was really glad that this kid accepted his reward. Actually, there's a hidden motive for why he decided to give a precious stone to Tristan. After he saw the information about Tristan he already determined that Tristan has a potential of an Elite or Maybe a Champion, so he takes an early investment in this kid and when he reached that stage, he hopes he will not forget his kindness.
"Actually, it's not only you but also First Lieutenant Jigo. Here take this" Anderson passed the badge to Jigo.
"Ah... Sir, I'm not lieutenant, I'm a Barracks Com..eh..." Jigo catch the badge and looked at it and stopped.
"Si,sir... thi..this?" Jigo body shook while asking Anderson nervously.
"Yes, from now you are officially a 1st Lieutenant of Station 92" Major Anderon said to him.
"But, but... What about Lieutenant Rodolfo?"
"He's Already missing and we don't know where he went, the responsibility of the Station Commander cannot wait for a long time so I assigned you to have this position"
"Thi...This..." Jigo still hesitates a bit and doesn't know what to say.
"What, can you not take responsibility? Is that your only determination?" Seeing Jigo hesitation, Anderson glared at him and pushed his esteem.
"I...I will do my best!" Jigo immediately stand straight and saluted with determination on his face.
"That's it, I have an expectation for you!" Anderson also saluted him.
"Boss Jigo, congratulations" Tristan patted his back happily.
"It's thanks to you kid!" If not for this kid, he doesn't know if he will come back alive.
"It's really nothing..."
"Ehem, ehem" Anderson interrupted them by coughing and the two immediately looked at him.
"I have something to talk about with Tristan alone" Anderson said while looking at them.
"I'll go back first" Jigo saluted Anderson again then patted Tristan's shoulder and go back.
"Major, do we have something to talk about, why it's so secretive?" Tristan was confused and asked.
"Actually, there is something I want to ask you"
"You can tell me"
"Are you planning to stay in this Black Region?"
Tristan's body shook and hesitated.
"I, I... want to stay"
"Young man, I will honestly tell you, you're wasting your talent here"
"This... Major, you, you want me to leave?"
"It's not that I want you to leave. I'm just telling the truth. Actually, I'm really reluctant to let you go. A person as talented as you could help me a lot here. But since I noticed you, it's not impossible for another group to notice you, especially given the large number of credits you earned this time. It may take a few months, and they will have your information.
"Major, don't worry I'm not afraid!"
"You're not afraid, but I'm afraid. Tristan, I'm telling you, you're wasting your talent here, take a look at your previous classmate's information" Major Anderson passed the information to him.
Hearing his 'previous classmates', he immediately unfolded the information.
