The beginning of the vacation

The last months of the school year, the lives of Anon and Susu have not changed much.

Anon, as always, went to school, and after studying, he sometimes stayed in the school library reading additional materials while preparing for exams. While Susu was waiting for him at home alone and met him at the door every time.

One day, when Sarina came to visit him once again, Anon decided not to miss the opportunity to talk to her.

Sarina, dressed in her official clothes in her usual manner, entered his house and stared at her nephew. Like all of his family, she also felt strange looking at him.

After making sure that everything was fine with the guy and his pets, she wanted to leave him, but Anon detained her and reminded her of his request.

Sarina was silent for a while. In the end, she decided to try to give her unremarkable nephew, who loves to be alone, a chance.

After three years of living with the curse, Anon found out that the curse does not completely erase everything that relates to him.

One example is just this. As far as Sarina was concerned, everything was very simple. She's nephew wanted to earn extra money by getting a part-time job at her store. The remaining parts are released.

Having received her consent and realizing that the curse would not erase it from her aunt's memory, Anon did not detain her.

The rest of the school year passed quickly.

Thanks to his diligence, Anon passed the exams without a hitch. He passed all the subjects with good grades, although if he had tried hard, he would have passed everything perfectly.

The spirit's warning not to attract attention and to remain in a low position played a major role in this.

After passing all the exams and receiving their report cards, all the students were released for their summer holidays.

A lot has changed during this time. His three awakened classmates, as expected by the others, no longer appeared in the classroom. All of them transferred to other more successful and popular beast tamer schools.

After Jimmy's departure, Saria lost her former enthusiasm and desire for more. She had already accepted her failure to awakening and Jimmy's awakening as a loss. Even after more than a month, she hadn't recovered from it all. It was clear that at the moment she had lost her purpose and had not yet found something in return that would give her new strength to move forward.

As for the world, all Local tournaments have recently ended and the competition phase has entered the Regional stage. The best local tamers who took the first places will participate in the competition of the region. The best players from the region will participate in the Continental tournament after the final of the Regional tournament, which will finally be followed by the World tournament.

His older sister's college also participated in the Local tournament, but from the information he received from his aunt, he learned that his sister's college dropped out at an early stage.

Anon wasn't much interested in Local tournaments, he watched and followed them as he had free time or to pass the time while preparing for exams.

If Anon hadn't decided to take a part-time job at his aunt's store, he, like the previous year, would have been left alone with Susu for the whole summer.

The older and younger sisters decided to go to a summer training camp for beast tamers and Contractors. The mother, therefore, followed her younger sister, supporting her endeavors as a beast tamer.

With the beginning of the summer holidays, the stage of Anon's life began as an employee of her aunt Sarina's store.

On his first day, Anon went out early to get to his aunt's store on time and not be late on his first day at work. Susu, as always, was left alone at home. Anon did not have a contract with her, so she is forbidden to follow him into the city.

The city has its own rules, stating that beasts that do not exceed a certain size can follow their beast tamer and then in the singular. If a beast tamer has several beasts, then the rest of the beasts should be given to the beast care store or kept in the house.

All this was done to ensure security in the city.

Moreover, Susu is a descendant of a Rank 7 beast lord, so she can become a target for other beast tamers or beast hunters. Although few people dare to raise their hands against the descendant of the beast lord, there will always be risky and beaten people in the world.

Another reason is that it is not written anywhere on Susu that she is a descendant of a Rank 7 beast lord. She just looks like an adorable white fox with fluffy fur and an elegant look. Which immediately catches the eye and ignites even in ordinary people the desire to possess it.

By staying at home, she is safe. The area of their house is very well guarded and security is higher due to the presence of many beast tamers.

Sarina's store was located south of the city center, slightly closer to the Black Gardens area. An area that is famous for not having a very good reputation. The area is mostly dominated by people with questionable backgrounds. This area is also referred to as an area for the poor, thieves and gangs.

Although at first glance the description is creepy and it seems that the area is the scariest place in the city, everything is not as bad as it is described. There are ordinary people living there who are trying to survive in this city and in this world in any way they can.

Evans Pet Store. That's what it said on the big-letter sign on the roof of the store.

Evans is Sarina's last name. She took her mother's last name, not her father's, as did Anon's mother, Sarah, who took her mother's last name, Heyers.

The size of the building was surprisingly neither too big nor too small. Compared to what Anon knew, beast tamer pet shops are usually large multi-storey buildings to provide most services to beast tamer pets. Such shops can be considered as elite hotels for pets of beast tamers. Some store owners have started combining hotels with a pet store, which is becoming very popular nowadays.

As expected, no one met or expected him. Sarina didn't bother to explain this to the other employees. No one paid any attention as a young black-haired guy entered the store.

Entering inside, Anon looked around. There weren't many people. A young girl was standing at the reception, receiving a single client, and those who accompanied the client sat in the guest area and looked at the screen in front of them, whiling away the time while waiting for their acquaintance.

The customer area had enough space to accommodate several beast tamers and their pets. The doors inside the building were much more spacious than the doors for ordinary houses.

The atmosphere inside was cozy and pleasant to the eye. No one paid any attention to Anon's presence because of the curse. Even if Anon had just walked inside, no one would have stopped him.

Although Anon arrived earlier than the scheduled time, the store was already open. Such stores are usually open around the clock and daily. It's just that ordinary store employees worked in shifts, but the special specialists of the stores worked on schedule.

Anon decided to write to his aunt and let her know that he had approached. He quickly typed in a message and sent it to her.

Realizing that it would take her a while to notice the message, Anon quietly joined the guests in watching re-runs of the best moments of the last Local tournament.

About 10 minutes later, a petite woman for her age entered the hall. It was the owner of the store, Sarina. The staff and guests, having recognized her identity, immediately greeted her.

Sarina also greeted everyone and, looking for her nephew among the crowd, found him, came up with a complicated expression on her face and told him to follow her, taking him inside.

Only then did everyone notice a young guy who was hanging out among the guests and quietly looking at the screen. No one realized when he came and joined them.
