Chapter 289: Chapter 289: My Beast Language Level 10

In the days that followed, whenever Ying Luo encountered danger, Lotcar, like her guardian deity, always descended beside her to rescue her from peril.

Gradually, a deep friendship was born between the wolf and the human, and Lotcar could now appear beside Ying Luo without any hesitation.

To outsiders, it seemed only a matter of time before Miss Ying Luo and Lotcar would form a contract.

However, in this world, Monster Tamers were often regarded as a group with a screw loose.

If Ying Luo became a Monster Tamer, it would certainly bring about a host of rumors and gossip.

Ying Luo’s parents were strongly against her forming a contract with Lotcar and preferred that they just maintain their relationship as it was.

Ying Luo had her complaints, but being young, she dared not defy her parents and followed their wishes, staying close yet always keeping a certain distance from Lotcar.

Lotcar seemed not to mind and would regularly show up to accept the gifts from Ying Luo’s family.

This relationship lasted for a long time, until...

Until one day, Lotcar, dragging his massive, scar-ridden body, arrived at the front of Ying Luo’s home villa.

Ying Luo vividly remembered that rainy night, the bright lights of the villa shining on Lotcar outside, making him appear so desolate and cold.

Red blood stained Lotcar’s previously immaculate white mane, and rain went ’bam’ at his feet, splashing a stark red.

His exhausted legs could no longer support his heavy body, and he collapsed thunderously in front of her home villa, barely alive.

Ying Luo ran out recklessly, gently touching Lotcar’s increasingly cold cheeks, her vision blurred by tears.

Ying Luo’s father hurriedly opened an umbrella and chased after her.

Blood continuously bubbled out of the torn wounds on Lotcar’s body.

Ying Luo’s father could feel the magic power rapidly dispersing from Lotcar’s body, and without a means to curb it, Lotcar was heading towards certain death.

Having been saved by Lotcar so many times, it was now her turn to save him.

Ying Luo asked her father if there was any way to save Lotcar, any way to stop the loss of magic power in his body.

Ying Luo’s father hesitantly mentioned several methods, but either time was insufficient, or they simply couldn’t meet the conditions.

They were utterly powerless.

Unable to accept this reality, Ying Luo cried like a normal little girl, helpless.

Hearing this sound, Lotcar slightly opened his eyelids; rain streamed into his vacant eyes, continuously flowing out from the corners, his eyes gaining a bit of luster that reflected Ying Luo’s constant sobbing.

Struggling to muster his body, Lotcar used all his remaining magic power to weave a contract.

He wanted to connect with humans; only by forming a contract with a human, who actively gave him magic power, could he suppress the loss of magic power in his body and survive.

Ying Luo understood Lotcar’s intentions.

Lotcar was a very intelligent Silver Wolf; he knew his own physical condition well, and he wouldn’t have exhausted all his magic to weave Contract Magic if this method couldn’t potentially save his life.

Ying Luo’s parents wanted to prevent her from becoming a Monster Tamer, but Ying Luo simply poured out her true feelings.

If it weren’t for Lotcar’s help earlier, they would have long become food for other demons; she couldn’t just watch Lotcar die.

Ying Luo pleaded with her father to teach her how to accept the contract.

With furrowed brows, Ying Luo’s father ultimately decided to teach her the simple method of accepting a contract.

It was only after Yang Yu and Lotcar had made a contract that they managed to survive that crisis.

As for their decision to leave their family and head to the All Things Library, that’s a story for another time.

After listening to Ying Luo’s affectionate and detailed account, Yang Yu glanced at Lotcar, with various pieces of information gradually coming together in his mind.

"It’s truly a fascinating experience.

I can understand why there is such a strong bond between you.

Here’s a document I got from the higher-ups at the Library, just give this to the guards over there for verification, and Lotcar will soon regain his freedom.

From now on, you don’t have to worry about any abnormalities, and you can continue living in the All Things Library.

Now, there are some things I would like to discuss with Lotcar alone.

So, Miss Ying Luo, please hand this document to the guards over there."

Upon seeing the document in Yang Yu’s hand, Ying Luo’s first reaction was incredulous.

Indeed, Ying Luo had seen such documents several times before and could recognize the handwriting; the document in Yang Yu’s hands was the genuine article.

She could never have dreamed that in just one day, Yang Yu would obtain a document from the senior ranks of the Law Enforcement Team that could unconditionally release Lotcar.

"Why so suddenly?"

Looking at the document in Yang Yu’s hand, Ying Luo didn’t take it; she didn’t know what Yang Yu intended to do with Lotcar, nor the reason behind his actions.

Yang Yu simply shook the document in his hand, signaling for Ying Luo to take it,

"I did a little investigation on the origin of this Silver Wolf, and I know he’s no ordinary creature.

Miss Ying Luo, I know what you’re worried about, but with you always present, he might not be able to express his true inner feelings, so please, do me this favor.

Don’t worry, look at me, haven’t I tamed my Slime perfectly with my level ten beast language? I can understand what he says."

He Meng poked his head out from Bai Jin’s hood, implying "what the hell are you talking about? If you could understand a single word I say, I wouldn’t have suffered so much."

Frustrated but having not eaten enough, He Meng couldn’t do anything to Yang Yu and just let it go.

Standing rooted to the spot, Ying Luo looked towards the weary Lotcar.

The health of a demon can somewhat be judged by the sheen of its fur.

In the past, the silver mane of Lotcar shone brightly under the bright sunlight, but today its fur was dull and lifeless.

This was not only the aftermath of being manipulated, but also due to changes in its state of mind.

Ying Luo had long noticed that Lotcar couldn’t have appeared in that forest by chance.

The Grey Energy had the effect of making one see painful memories of the past, and Lotcar’s heart also surely harbored some distressing memories.

In order to completely heal Lotcar, it was necessary for him to overcome those painful memories and regain his confidence.

This man before her, who had gained the Library’s respect in just a few weeks, definitely had something special about him.

If he could indeed resolve the issues that had long plagued Lotcar, giving him and Lotcar some time and space was not out of the question.

With that decided, Ying Luo took the document from Yang Yu and walked towards the remote guard station, accompanied by Bai Jin and Iyas.
