Chapter 113: Bonus Chapter] Fluffington In Trouble

[Bonuse Chapter For GT, Good Job Guys!!]

"What in the heavens happened here?" Captain Bofan exclaimed when he saw the sight in front of him.

He was currently inside a store that sold alchemist wares; inside the store, there was a broken golem and the headless body of what he could only assume to be the owner of this store.

Captain Bofan was a military officer, akin to a sheriff. He worked directly for the city mayor and was in charge of ensuring the city's peace. He had been informed earlier by someone about what had happened in this store.

Rushing over, he didn't expect to witness such a gruesome sight. Someone had blown off the head of an innocent citizen; he needed to get to the bottom of this.

'I hope it's not them...' the captain thought, considering the factions that had come into Coastal City to hunt for the Elemental Beast.

One might wonder why he hadn't chased all the others out of the city and hunted the beast alone with his squad. The reason for this was simple.

He didn't have the power to chase them out. Each group was very powerful, almost as powerful as his strike team... hence he let them be.

As he was deep in thought, a soldier came reporting. "Captain, we have an eyewitness who saw the last people that entered this shop."

"An eyewitness? Bring them." Captain Bofan ordered, and the soldier escorted a woman inside the store. The woman gulped as Captain Bofan stared at her with narrowed eyes.

"Tell me everything you know... don't leave out a single detail," he said in a stern voice. The woman nodded hurriedly and started to narrate everything she knew.

The Maverick Guild arrived at the temporary base, the abandoned ship. Ever since they mentioned the Lich Court, nobody said anything again; even the usually talkative Brenda was eerily quiet.

Their reaction made Nox even more curious to know what this Lich Court was. He wanted to ask questions, but it seemed no one wanted to talk about it. It felt as if this was a taboo topic they didn't like discussing.

After arriving on the abandoned ship, Reyes told everyone to rest and that they would discuss things later.

Though he was itching to learn about the Lich Court that had instantly changed the mood of everyone, Nox decided to keep his questions to himself and ask at an appropriate time.

'Well, since I have nothing to do, I should develop the taming space,' Nox thought as he sat inside one of the numerous rooms inside the ship. The air was a bit stuffy, and the room was in a very terrible condition, but this was expected because the ship was several years old.

"First of all, let's clear the fogs." To improve his taming space, all he had to do was think about the features he wanted the taming space to have, which would consume a lot of mana points.

However, before he could begin, Nox suddenly thought of something.

'Wait... where is Fluffington?' He got up from his seated position and tried to summon the cat, but it was to no avail.

'Where could it be?' He sent his subconscious into the taming space; however, apart from doing his regular training with a large gap between him and the blue egg, he couldn't find the cat anywhere.

'Damn it, I've been so busy these days that I don't even have time to tend to my pets,' Nox complained. He knew he had not been bonding well with his first pet in recent times, but that was because he was trying to get stronger as fast as he could. After all, his future enemies were very powerful beings.

'And I wanted to make Thirteen comfortable... I wanted him to experience parental love. Shit, I hope I didn't overdo it,' Nox thought as he rushed to the control chambers, which was the last place he had talked to the cat.

As he headed to the control chambers, Nox couldn't help but think of something crucial.

...he had bestowed two skills to Thirteen while Fluffington had none, only his special skills.

'Damn it, how could I mess up like this!' Nox massaged his temple. Master Eve had told him that bonding with beasts was very important for a beast tamer.

Depending on the level of bond and trust, the beast could follow instructions without objections and could even sacrifice its life for its master.

Though it was very rare for a tamed beast to turn against its master, it could still resist when issued some commands or hate its master if the beast tamer didn't form a strong bond with them.

If that bond weakened to a certain level, they could even attack their masters.

Nox didn't want something like that to happen with Fluffington. Even though the cat was arrogant and very lazy, he still loved it dearly with all his heart.

They'd been through so many things together; no matter what, he'd never cast aside the cat.

Besides, Fluffington was the last gift his father had left behind for him.

Shortly after, Nox checked the control chambers and still didn't find the cat. He even asked the members of the Mavericks Guild, but their feedback wasn't positive.

'Stupid cat, where are you!' Nox called out in his mind. He tried to sense his connection with the cat. Nox had a connection with all his tamed pets; as long as he was within a certain range of them, he could communicate with them.

Sighing, Nox left the abandoned ship and started to search for Fluffington... he searched the entire frozen river where the ship was currently located and even headed to the city, yet his search yielded no results.

'Is he angry at me for focusing on only Thirteen?' Nox didn't find this thought far-fetched, as any kid would feel the same if their parents focused more on their siblings.

Though Eve's cold personality was beginning to rub off on Nox, he was still a big softy when it came to his pets.

Just then, while he was sulking, Nox heard Fluffington's voice loud and clear in his head.

[Brat! Something is wrong with me! I can't control my body! I need your help!]
