章節 358: Chapter 358: Book of Contract, Psychic Beast Dark Night!
After Reiki achieved a partial victory, the anger from being spanked gradually subsided. With the help of the [Top Spirit Clearing Potion], Reiki began to reassess the situation in front of him.
He realized that the little girl in front of him was a mischievous and willful child. Her actions were likely not meant to provoke or tease him but stemmed from her belief that spanking was a symbol of victory.
Perhaps this girl was accustomed to being spanked herself.
Given this realization, Reiki decided not to use Murasame to curse Chedori in front of him. Instead, he released the frustration that had built up.
"Alright, we're even," he said. "You mentioned that I passed the test. Can I start practicing immortality now? Also, what is the name of this fairyland?"
Reiki put Chedori down and asked seriously. Chedori, who had been pleading for mercy moments ago, was now stunned by his sudden change in demeanor. This boy had seemed ready to kill her a second ago. Why such a drastic shift?
Was this part of some scheme?
"Are you lying to me again?" Reiki's face darkened as Chedori didn't respond immediately.
"No, no, I swear I didn't lie! Please stop spanking me. It really hurts," she said quickly. "This is the realm between time and space. To practice immortality, you need to meet an immortal."
"Alright, don't make it hard for Chedori. She's just a bit eccentric," said a voice. A green-haired girl appeared before Reiki, accompanied by a pink-haired girl.
Seeing these two, Reiki questioned the tastes of the ruler of this realm. Why would children be chosen as its guardians?
"Thank you," he said politely. "What are your names?"
The pink-haired girl responded, "You won't be able to sign a contract with Chedori yet. When you're strong enough, you'll know our names. Now, let's proceed."
With a wave of her hand, the surroundings shifted. The four of them found themselves at the base of a majestic mountain. In the distance stood a stone monument, engraved with the name—Buzhou.
"Boom!"
A massive stone fell before Reiki, radiating such immense pressure that he felt as if he might be crushed.
"This is the contract between time and space," the pink-haired girl said. "If you can inscribe your name here, the method for practicing immortality will appear in your mind. Along with it, you'll gain a psychic beast suited to your strength. If your power increases significantly, you can attempt another contract. You have two chances per year, so don't waste them."
"Understood," Reiki said, astonished. Unlike the typical contracts, which were large scrolls, this one was an immense stone.
"Channel your chakra and inscribe your name," the pink-haired girl instructed. "The potions you used won't help. This contract binds your soul, not just external forces."
Nodding, Reiki raised his hand and focused his chakra.
"Reiki," he whispered as he etched his name onto the stone. Instantly, a wave of weakness overcame him as if his very essence had been drained.
"Impressive, you have a strong partner," the pink-haired girl said. "The next stage is up to you. Earning your partner's trust doesn't end here. Feel their presence."
With that, she vanished, and the green-haired girl waved playfully before disappearing as well. Chedori, with a pout and a defiant expression, also left after a moment, muttering under her breath.
The contract stone dissolved, merging into Reiki's palm. He could now sense the Book of Contract within him, ready to be summoned with a mere thought.
"Boom!"
A shadow fell, stirring a thick cloud of dust. Within it, a deep, resonant roar echoed. From the haze, a massive black dragon emerged—not one of those rounded Western dragons, but a true black dragon.
"Are you my contractor?" it rumbled. "Just a weak boy. I don't care how you gained the Book of Contract's approval. If you can't pass my test, I won't acknowledge you. Remember my name—Dark Night!"
Each step the dragon took sent tremors through the ground.
"Hello, my name is Reiki," he said, trying to mask his awe. "What is your test?"
Dark Night's eyes glinted. "Hurt me! Prove yourself with raw strength alone."
Before Reiki could respond, the dragon's tail lashed out. The impact was immediate and powerful, too swift to avoid. Reiki barely had time to shield his face with his arms before being flung across the ground.
"ROOM!" Reiki activated the last reserves of his chakra, using the power of his surgical fruit to mend his injuries. His hands moved rapidly, aided by the lingering effects of his recovery and stamina potions.
With newfound resolve, Reiki charged forward. The Book of Contract had sapped his essence, leaving him weakened. Yet, even now, he pushed to discover his limits.
Seeing this, Dark Night's mouth curled into a faint smile. This boy had already passed the true test. Courage was the foundation for everything.
