Chapter 17: Grant Forest

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

With Rex’s words, everyone summoned their flying spirit beasts.

Bart didn’t have a flying spirit beast, so he was sitting on the back of the Epic-rank Fiery Bird with his grandfather Rex.

The girl didn’t summon her spirit beast either. Instead, she strode over to Giles with her long legs.

The girl looked to be in her twenties. She was dressed in a casual outfit and looked neat and tidy.

Coupled with her outstanding and stylish figure and the unique aura she naturally exuded, she was especially eye-catching.

Giles frowned as the girl approached.

“Are you Giles?”

.

“That’s right.”

“Let’s get to know each other. I’m Annie’s elder sister, Alina.”

Alina blinked her eyes at him.

“Alina? Annie?”

Giles suddenly understood. So she was the elder sister of the young lady from yesterday.

“Annie came home yesterday and cried for a long time. She told me you were the one who made her like that.”

Giles shook his head at that.

“Don’t say that. This is all her own problem. It has nothing to do with me.”

Needless to say, Giles would not accept being made the scapegoat and immediately explained.

Alina rolled her eyes at him.

“I’m not looking for trouble. I’m just curious about what you said to Annie.”

“You can ask your younger sister.”

Giles looked exasperated. With that, he summoned his Swan Beast and jumped on it.

On the other hand, Richard was stunned for a moment when he saw Giles summon a Gold-rank spirit beast. Then, he sized Giles up thoughtfully.

Alina looked at Giles with her beautiful eyes and smiled.

Then, she summoned her own spirit beast.

It was a White Crane.

She then rode the White Crane and followed behind Giles.

…

Sitting on the back of the Swan Beast, Giles looked at the passing scenery on the ground and felt a sense of peace.

On the other hand, Elena rode her White Crane and approached Giles.

“I heard that you used to be a Bronze-rank Beast Tamer?”

Giles glanced at her.

“That’s right.”

Alina blinked and pressed on.

“Then why did you suddenly become a Gold-rank Beast Tamer? I heard people say that you can only contract Bronze-rank spirit beasts. Are those people lying?”

“They’re telling the truth.”

“Then how did you suddenly become a Gold-rank Beast Tamer?”

At that, Giles looked ahead. Then, he turned his head and smiled at Alina.

“It’s a secret.”

Just as Elena was about to ask again, Rex, who was in front, began to descend.

Giles saw that they were already near the forest in front of them and understood that they could no longer use their flying spirit beasts to travel.

The reason was that there were many savage ferocious beasts in the wild and most of these ferocious beasts had violent temperaments.

If they came across any humans, they would attack.

The reason why they had rode on the flying spirit beasts previously was because most of the areas outside the city had been cleared by Beast Tamers.

Right now, they were already near the forest.

No one knew how many terrifying existences were inside.

If they were to continue riding on their flying spirit beasts, they might be attacked by ferocious beasts.

Soon, everyone landed safely.

“Everyone, let’s take a break. We’ll move off in an hour.”

Giles put away the Swan Beast and stepped on the ground.

Immediately, he felt a strong sense of stability as if he had returned from the ocean to the mainland.

He sized up the forest in front of him.

Its name was Grant Forest.

This was named after a Beast Tamer.

Many years ago, it was precisely this forest that numerous ferocious beasts had surged from and attacked Yin City on a large scale.

During this process, a Beast Tamer named Grant revealed his talent. He rose quickly and contracted a Legend-rank spirit beast. Then, he fought off all the ferocious beasts that were attacking Yin City and protected the entire city.

Afterwards, he charged straight into the forest and killed several high-rank ferocious beasts.

As a result, no ferocious beasts attacked Yin City for many years after.

In order to commemorate him, the people of Yin City named this forest after him.

“Grant Forest. I’ve only read about it in books before. This is my first time here.”

Beside him, Alina stared at the huge forest before her, before turning to Giles and saying this.

“It’s my first time here, too. I hope this operation goes smoothly.”

Giles’ brows knitted together.

Who knew how many ferocious beasts existed in such a large forest?

On the other hand, Alina smiled.

“What are you worried about with two Epic-rank Beast Tamers around?”

Giles glanced at her. Then, he focused on the large forest in front of them.

“Think about what our goal is this time.”

“With an Epic-rank beast that is about to break through, how can it be that easy to succeed?”

“By the way, why did a Gold-rank Beast Tamer like you participate in this operation?”

Giles suddenly realized.

Bart had come along with his grandfather Rex, and Rex had invited him.

So why did this girl named Alina participate in this mission?

Alina didn’t answer right away. Instead, she asked Giles a question, “Aren’t you the same? Why are you here?”

Giles pointed to Rex, who was standing nearby.

“I was invited by Rex.”

“Why did he invite you?”

Alina looked at Giles curiously.

“You must have some special ability, or rather, your spirit beast has some special ability. That’s why he, an Epic-rank Beast Tamer, invited you.”

“So what is it?”

Giles started for a moment. Then, he laughed.

He had not expected this girl to be right.

However, he was not prepared to tell her as this was one of his trump cards.

The fewer the people who knew, the better.

“It’s a secret,” Giles said, then glanced over his shoulder at the girl.

“I was the one asking you. How did it become the other way round?”

“So what’s your reason?”

Alina rolled her eyes at him.

“This is also a secret.”

Since she didn’t want to tell him, Giles didn’t probe further.

When the time came, he would naturally know the reason.

Just then, Rex came over and told Giles that they were leaving.

A while later, all of them stood in front of Grant Forest.

They summoned their respective spirit beasts.

Rex did not summon the Fiery Bird this time. Instead, he summoned another Epic-ranked beast, the Earth Barbaric Bear.

Richard summoned another Epic-ranked beast, the Lava Python.

Bart summoned the Savage Blood Lion.

Alina summoned a Gold-rank Four-eyed Spirit Cat.

As for Giles, he directly summoned the King Kong Beast.

Rex entered the forest first, followed by the others.
