âHow much longer? I canât hold on much longer.â
Bona anxiously asked Robocco.
âItâs already done.â
Roboccoâs answer surprised Bona.
Amidst his surprise, Bonner looked over and found that Roboccoâs body was dissipating bit by bit.
Countless particles burst out of his body.
The same thing happened to Liveras.
âWhatâs happening?â
A blissful smile appeared on Roboccoâs face. He could almost feel that a great existence was descending.
Seeing Bonaâs shocked face, Robocco said with a smile, âDonât worry about me. It is inevitable.â
Even the previous head of the ritual did not survive in such a ceremony when he was well prepared.
Not to mention, he had prepared the ritual in a hurry.
Surviving could be considered a miracle, but he had long prepared for death.
Anyway, death was inevitable, so it was better to die with greater value.
Therefore, Robocco had long prepared for this.
âAs long as the ritual is successful, whatâs the matter if I die?â
He turned his head and looked at Liveras and smiled.
âYou think so too, huh, Liveras?â
Growl!
Liveras called out in response as the man and dragon looked at each other affectionately.
âLetâs meet again on the other side, Liveras.â
âNoâ¦â Bona wanted to stop him, but he did not have that capability.
He subconsciously looked behind him before his vision darkened as he lost consciousness.
At this moment, Alia walked into this familiar ritual square with Bernal in her arms.
As soon as he entered, a special feeling overwhelmed Bernal.
He looked up at the empty ritual platform and the empty square in front of him, knowing that it was over.
âIt seems like weâre late.â
His gaze swept across the square. When Bernal withdrew his attention, he suddenly realized that the venue was not empty.
There was something small lying there.
The personâs figure was familiar to him, but the appearance was different from what he remembered.
Gulp gulp!
A black tide appeared, and a tentacle brought the little thing in front of Bernal.
What appeared in front of him was none other than the shrunken Calhemus.
Calhemus, who had maintained his evolved form, looked like a child with tentacles in the lower body and bat wings.
Bernal looked at this guy in bewilderment, finding him familiar.
Perhaps this is what the ritual summoned?
âMm? Why do you look so familiar?â
Hearing Bernalâs voice, Calhemus suddenly opened his eyes. His originally ruthless eyes immediately became warm and pure when he saw Bernal.
Looking at the little thing waving its tentacles in front of it, Bernal glanced at the wings and tentacles on its back.
He said tentatively,
âCalhemus.â
Hearing Bernal calling his name, Calhemus immediately responded happily with a brilliant smile.
Looking at this reaction, Bernal was slightly surprised.
âIt really is you!â
Bernal let go of Calhemus and looked at him in surprise. He did not expect that he had changed so much after such a short time.
âHow did you become like this? Though you look much more pleasing to the eye now.â
As if he understood Bernalâs words, Calhemus rushed into Bernalâs arms joyously.
In his understanding, Bernal was praising him.
It was the truth as Bernal hugged Calhemus and stroked his beautiful hair. He did find him much more pleasing to the eye.
The current Calhemus made him feel like a father.
Fascinating!
Looking at Calhemus, Bernal sighed in his heart. He was only three years old, but he had already become a father.
Itâs a fascinating alternate world, after all.
âRoar~â Hearing Calhemusâs voice, Bernal smiled.
âStill canât speak human language? Never mind, youâll learn from me properly in the future.â
âMm-hmm.â
Calhemus replied merrily as his head kept rubbing against Bernalâs chest.
âYou do understand my language, though.â
Just as Bernal was about to ask Calhemus about this place, three figures stood up from the ritual platform.
Bernal looked over as if he had sensed something.
At the side, Kulenna looked at the triplets in confusion.
âBeastfolks? Something doesnât feel right.â
âIs there a problem?â Bernal curiously asked as he saw Kulennaâs reaction.
Bernal turned around and sized up the three beastfolk sisters.
The triplets looked similar, but their physical characteristics were different.
On the leftmost side had a pair of cat ears and tails. The one in the middle had a pair of furry limbs with sharp claws.
The last one had a furry body as if she was wearing a coat made of fur.
Is this the beastfolk of this world? Bernal had never seen them before.
He knew of the existence of beastfolk, but this was the first time he saw one.
At this moment, Kulennaâs voice sounded in his ear.
âYoung Master Nielson, this is not a beastfolk, or rather, not an ordinary beastfolk.â
Kulennaâs eyes sparkled with curiosity. He was very interested in the triplets that had appeared in front of him.
âOther than being human-shaped, normal beastfolks donât have any characteristics of humans. They mostly have the characteristics of various animals.â
Bernal imagined it with Kulennaâs description. An image instantly formed in his mind.
For example, Taurens, Taurens and Taurens, etc.
âIf Iâm not wrong, this pair of triplets are supposed to be purebred beastfolks.â
âWhat does that mean?â Bernal looked at Kulenna in confusion.
âPurebred beastfolks donât have any characteristics of humans other than standing on two feet like humans.â
âSo, whatâs their situation now?â
âIâm guessingâ¦â Kulenna was about to explain. However, before he could finish, he felt a great force landing on him. Next, he flew backward.
Before Bernal could react, he heard the three beastfolk girls on the stage begin to speak.
âLet me tell you instead, sisterâs contractor!â
âBeastfolks were the products of cursed humans.
âAnd why this pair of triplets is like this is that they have shared the burden of the curse.â
âShare the curse?â Upon hearing this, Bernal did not bother to look at Kulenna. He looked at the triplets on the ritual platform in surprise and suddenly understood something.
âThank you for your explanation. How should I address you, Goddess?â
âYouâre welcome!â
âAs my sisterâs contractor,â
âYou have the right and the ability to know our names.â
The triplets said the sentence by saying a portion each.
This method made it strenuous for Bernal to listen.
However, they said it very naturally.
âMy name!â
âIs!â
âAmelia!â
