Alpina Boreas is a world champion. An idol and role model for many novice animal tamers. Even after 6 years, her popularity has not decreased.
6 years ago, at the World Championship finals, she demonstrated what level of strength Level 5 beast tamers can achieve. In the final, she showed strength beyond her level and defeated her opponent who was in the initial stage of level 6.
For the victory, she received her second title, "Limits breaker," which was already an amazing event. As a level 5 beast tamer, she had already obtained 2 titles. Usually, titles are awarded only after reaching level 6. It is because of this that level 6 is also commonly referred to as the Titled level.
After her victory, she disappeared from the radar of the network and fans for some time.
The next time she appeared in the public eye, she had already advanced to level 6.
She rarely appears in public lately. Only in grand events like the World champion finals.
Anon also considered her a benchmark and his idol. He, like all young people, was waiting to see her at the upcoming World Championships, which should be held at the end of the summer holidays, after the preliminary qualifying tournaments had eliminated the candidates.
That day, when Anon arrived home, he was greeted at the door by a hyperactive Susu, as always.
No matter how you look at it, the lightning fox's bloodline makes itself felt.
Like humans, animals also have their own status windows. Only the beast lords and their descendants can summon and look at them. Ordinary beasts that have not yet awakened cannot activate their status windows.
The distinguishing feature of beasts from humans is that beasts can evolve and rise in rank without even passing their awakening.
The beasts that failed to awaken can rise in strength, and as their rank increases, they become smarter and more cunning. While awakened beasts gain the title of beast lords, they gain intelligence and the power of dominance. Awakening gives them a qualitative leap in their strength, understanding of their power, and unlocks the ability to break the shackles of their bloodlines and evolve.
As a descendant of the beast lord, Susu has been smart since birth, although she still hasn't passed the awakening, she could already activate her status window. Anon has seen the status window of Susu for a long time.
Status
Name: Susu
Race: Lightning Fox
Gender: Female
Rank: 0 (Unawakened)
Element: Lightning (Unawakened)
Although Susu's status was not very useful and informative, she already had lines showing her rank and element of the unawakened beast.
Anon understood that Susu, as the descendant of the beast lord, could have already awakened. But she didn't do it, she was waiting for him when he would awaken or decide to become a Contractor. She didn't want to become stronger than him ahead of time. Like him, she shared his desire to develop together.
Many would say that Susu is stupid and Anon is stupid too. The world does not stand still. In this day and age, when powerful people and beasts roam the world, only the possession of power can guarantee a safe life.
Following this, everyone should build up their strength as much as possible, without wasting or wasting the opportunity given to them. For many, if they had looked at Anon and Susa, they would have immediately decided that both of them were doing just that. Wasting your potential.
But for Anon and Susu, from the moment they both became outcasts, it didn't really matter. They stuck to their pace and their thoughts.
After playing together, both of them were a little out of breath, and Anon, after drinking water, sat down and began to reflect.
The first attempt to awaken failed. He won't get his next chance at awakening until a year later. He still had time to think and decide to try his luck a second time in a year, or turn to his mother and become a Susu Contractor.
But at the same time, he remembered the spirit's words about a possible other path. A path that few people knew about, and if they did, they didn't share or post it openly online.
"What kind of cultivation path could this be?" Anon wondered.
Anon knew that some kind of ritual or ceremony was needed to awaken a beast tamer or a Contractor. Even the beasts need the ancestor's help to awaken into the beast lord at this time.
It was only in ancient times that humans and beasts could only awaken naturally. After finding stimulating and effective ways, almost all modern awakenings are conducted through them. Although there are still rumors of natural awakenings, they all come down to one thing. Even a natural urge needs an incentive.
Sitting in exactly one place and knowing nothing and doing nothing, there will be no progress. Following these thoughts, Anon decided. He decided to try to get a job at his aunt's store. Firstly, he was interested in the pets of the beast tamers.
Secondly, he wanted to gain experience from his aunt in courtship and possibly in the methods of beast evolution and gain practical experience. Anon read a lot about beasts, watched all kinds of videos on the web, but in real life he almost never encountered other beats, except for the animals of his family, most of which belonged to the fox race.
Thirdly, as much as Anon missed his family, he didn't want to drag them into this. He had already tried to restore the old relationship, but it was no use. All his efforts quickly evaporated and everything returned to its original state.
Having made his decision, Anon decided to write to his aunt and at the same time ask if his sister had wakened with her. Taking out his smartphone, he quickly scribbled a message to his aunt and sent it.
Realizing that it would take him a while to get an answer, Anon decided to cook himself and Susu something to eat.
After lying down for a while, she became active again and began to rush around the house. Sometimes she would bring a small ball to Anon and ask him to play with her. Anon did not refuse, he was distracted from cooking and threw her a ball, and she quickly caught it and brought it back.
After finishing the cooking, Anon set the table for himself and Susu and both ate leisurely. Just as they were finishing, Anon received a reply from Sarina. The answer came just as he expected.
He had encountered these many times in the past. Answering his letters, without exception, took some time. He could imagine the whole process.
Using Sarina's example, when she received a letter from him, she first needed to pay attention to the fact that a message had arrived. And the messages sent by someone as damned as him were also ignored. Only after a certain time do they notice the message, and after that she will most likely fall into a stupor and start wondering who it is, then, like everyone else, something will click in her head, and they will remember who he is and wonder why he suddenly wrote the messages. Only then, after reading and already understanding that Anon exists in their understanding, would they begin to think what would answer.
Everything about everything took a certain amount of time.
Surprisingly, Sarina did not refute and did not immediately agree. She wrote that she would think about his part-time job. But the most amazing, joyful, but at the same time insulting thing was written at the end.
Unlike him, his twin sister successfully passed the awakening ceremony and became the official beast tamer.
