Chương 26: Mei Zong

2 hours later…

[Filled 44 Cells]

"Oh! The number of filled cells increased!" Theo exclaimed in surprise.

"Okay, Yuki will be cultivating for another 3 hours so I'll hunt for a little while!" With that thought in mind, Theo left the [Dimensional Room] and then he headed towards the forest.

When walking in the forest, Theo noticed a fruit tree that looked a lot like the apples he knew.

Looking at them curiously, Theo noticed that their name really was [Apple]. He then used his mental power and took one of them, bringing it to himself and began to eat it.

"Hm... sour!" Theo exclaimed as he took a bite. But soon he thought, "Oh! It's sweet inside! It's a good taste!" Theo thought in surprise.

After finishing eating it, Theo decided to keep these apples in the [Dimensional Bag] to eat later with Yuki.

"Hm... until now I've only seen a few smaller (Animals), which when they saw me, they ran away," Theo thought after walking in the forest.

"Oh! A (Boar) is running towards me! What a brave one!!" Theo thought.

However, this (Boar) was only in the 4th Tier of the Apprentice Kingdom, so when he got close to Theo, he just hit the (Boar)'s head with his claws and killed it.

Theo: "<Devour>"

[Obtained: 154 System Points]

After that, Theo continued to worry about finding prey to turn into his [Points].

While walking in the forest, killing the (Animals) and (Monsters) for the points. Theo began to think aloud: "When I get my (Human) form, I want to travel all over the world!"

"Sigh~ Well, better not think about it now," Theo thought.

XXX "What an ambitious (Animal) we have here!"

Before Theo went back hunting in the woods, he heard a beautiful female voice, making all the hairs of his body rise. He began to feel a very strong presence coming from the sky. When he looked in the direction of the voice he heard…

Theo saw a woman on top of a floating object, a very spaceship-like looking one. Seeing this, Theo was very surprised, but then his surprise turned to fear; because this woman began to float in the sky with a pair of blue wings on her back. She began to descend from the sky towards him.

The maiden had two long ponytails hanging down to her waist. Her face had a sweet and lovely smile. Her pairs of big, tearful eyes were extremely bright as she looked at Theo.

This maiden was wearing a pink dress as she flew from the sky like a charming pink fairy, landing slowly on the ground. She looked at Theo with her curious eyes.

Theo was mesmerized by this woman's beauty, but soon fear began to invade his heart again: "Why did she come to me? She came to kill me?" Theo began to wonder in fear.

Theo was sure that if she wanted to kill him, she hardly had to do anything. Since when he looked at the information above her said: (Human): 11th Tier of the Magician Apprentice Kingdom.

This beautiful maiden said: "And to think that I would find an (Animal) who is in the 10th Tier of the Student Kingdom on the edge of the forest!" She looked at Theo with her curious eyes.

Before Theo even spoke, she continued: "Um... you're getting more and more puzzling. I've never seen or heard of a Golden Fox in my life!" She said and her mouth curved into a beautiful smile.

But Theo did not have time to enjoy it, for he did not know if she would be hostile to him or not: "W-What do you intend to do?" He asked worriedly.

"Actually, I intended to go deeper into the forest to find an (Animal) to form a contract with me!" She replied with a smile.

"You..." Before he could even finish the sentence, she interrupted.

"My name is Mei Zong. But you can call me Mei!" She said.

"Um... Mei, I'm Theo!" He replied.

Seeing Theo say his name, she nodded with satisfaction.

Mei smiled and said, "I like you! Do you want to form a contract with me? I promise to treat you well!" She said and smiled gently.

Looking at her, Theo could see that she was not a bad person and did not seem to want anything bad from him, but he had many secrets and did not want to get involved in anything that could lead to his death.

"Sigh..." Theo thought for a moment and said, "Sorry! I can not go with you."

Mei said with a sad expression, "Are you sure? If you came with me, I will help you to get strong quickly! Soon, you could get your (Human) form and with me, you could travel the world easily!" She said looking seriously at him, waiting for him to change his mind.

"I still can not! Sorry!" Theo replied.

Mei forced a smile and said, "I see... well, I will not force you then."

Seeing this, Theo began to feel bad for rejecting her offer, but it couldn't be helped.

"Actually, I didn't come just to form a contract with an (Animal), I'm also worried about someone who is from my Sect," Mei said.

Theo became curious and asked, "May I ask why you are worried about this person?"

"Hm... he is a man who came from the same Sect as me. He was on a mission along with someone from the Dragon Sect in search of a (Dragon's Egg) with a strong [Lineage]! The (Dragon's Egg) helps increase the [Lineage] of someone who is also (Dragon), so they made a deal. The (Egg) would stay with the (Dragon) if the mission succeeded, and he would get many [Magic Cores], but when they succeeded, it seems that he deceived the other guy from the Dragon Sect and stole the [Magic Cores] and the (Dragon's Egg) at night." Mei explained.

"Is she talking about the (Human) that I found? And the (Dragon's Egg) you're talking about is what's with me ?! It can only be it..." Theo thought in surprise.

Theo calmed down and said, "I see. So that's why you have to find him. "

"Yes, but there's a chance he's already dead... since he ended up fighting and was seriously injured. Maybe some (Animal) or (Monster) may have devoured him," Mei said.

In that thought, she's right, Theo devoured him, but of course, Theo won't say it.

Seeing that she was a gentle person and liked to talk, Theo began to ask her about cultivation, which he still didn't know.

While talking to her, Theo came to know that the Superior Student Kingdom has 12 Tiers, then comes the Apprentice Wizard Kingdom, that also had 12 Tiers, followed the Wizard Kingdom which also consisted of 12 Tiers. In the sect where she is, only the strongest Elders are in the Superior Wizard Kingdom.

She only knew what existed until the Spiritual Kingdom. This was a very powerful existence! But few can reach such a kingdom. In her Sect, only the patriarch is in the Spiritual Kingdom, but she never saw his power. So she did not know how strong he was.

After talking for over an hour, Theo asked, "From what you have said your sect is far from here! Where is it?"

Mei smiled and said, "The forest where we are in is the Foggy Forest. It's North from here, in a city called [Soiken Town]. The name of my sect is [Red Flower Sect] and it's the strongest Sect in the [Soiken Town]!" She replied proudly.

"Thank you for telling me all of this!" Theo said gratefully to her.

"Don't worry! I liked talking to you!" Mei then became a little sad and said, "I'm leaving. If you want to meet me, you can look for me at the [Red Flower Sect] in [Soiken City]. I do very well there!"

"I understand! Thanks again!" Theo said curving toward her.

"Hehe, don't worry! I'm going now, I have a feeling we'll meet again!" She spoke and flew to her 'object' and began to head deeper into the forest.

"Sigh~" Theo looked in the direction and thought, "Well, I got a lot of important information! Too much time has passed, I'd better go back!"

------------

Extra Scene~

One day, while in the [Cave], Theo asked something to Yuki, "Okay, so, while sitting down, lift your right paw and tilt your head."

Yuki did it and asked: "Like this?"

Theo: "Yes, now just say 'Rawr'"

Yuki: "Rawr"

Then, Theo turned to the side and thought "This is too much for my heart to handle."
