Chapter 16: Magic Pet
Suddenly, Cage felt a sense of alarm. He saw a big guy coming over. From the sense, he could find that he was quite powerful, definitely stronger than House. He also wanted to see what the magic beasts in this world were so powerful, and also wanted to know what level of strength he had reached.
A huge magic bear appeared in front of the two people without any warning, and its size was a bit like a polar bear.
"Your Highness, hurry up, it's an eighth-level magic bear, I'll resist it for a while." House urged all his strength, bronze fighting spirit covered his whole body, and stood in front of Cage. Cage looked at House with a little interest. It turned out that the urging of fighting spirit was a catalyst for strength, endurance, and reaction.
"Hey!" House shouted and raised his sword to attack the magic bear. The eighth-level magic bear is not an ordinary magic beast. It not only has a certain amount of wisdom, but also far exceeds the warriors of the same level in strength. It is not only powerful, but more importantly, it has the ability of earth magic and can launch various earth magic attacks without summons. However, Cage did not understand why such a high-level magic beast appeared in this not very remote place.
The magic bear did not care about the opponent's sword and slapped it directly. House's sword was easily blocked. The magic bear slapped it again, and House quickly dodged it. A big tree next to him fell down with a bang. It seems that the power of this attack is at least ten thousand pounds. The magic bear seems to not care about House at all, thinking that this person is no threat in his eyes, no different from an ant.
One force can defeat ten skills. Even if House's swordsmanship is good, he can't defeat an overly powerful opponent. What's more, his swordsmanship, to be honest, is not very good. He could only avoid the attack of the magic bear by constantly moving in a small area. Seeing Cage still standing by, he became more anxious. So he used all his strength to attack the magic bear. With a "clang", the sword that he used all his strength was blocked by the magic bear's broad palm. Cage felt the power of the earth magic on the magic bear's palm. Before House could react, the magic bear's other palm had already hit him. Cage used his fighting spirit to take the blow and flew out directly. He knocked down two trees and then lay on the ground motionless. In Cage's perception, he should have fainted. His own injuries were not very serious. It seemed that the magic bear had no interest in him, otherwise it would have killed him long ago.
The demon bear found that there was another person in the field, and immediately roared at this person. Cage smiled and did not move. The demon bear rushed up and tried to flatten this annoying guy with one palm, but this powerful palm was caught by Cage. Before the age of twelve, Cage found that his strength was too great, and it took a long time to adapt to his strength. He also wanted to know how strong he was. Unexpectedly, he stood firmly in front of the demon bear known for its strength. It seems that he has to find a dragon to compete with him to know where the limit of his strength is. During this period, his strength is still growing. If there is no change in his body shape, he even doubts whether he will become a muscle monster.
The demon bear angrily slapped Cage with another palm, wanting to teach this person who challenged his strength a lesson, but unfortunately, he was caught by Cage again, and his two palms were tightly grasped, and he couldn't break free at all. The demon bear knew that this person must be very powerful, and the memory left by his ancestors came to his mind. When encountering someone stronger than himself, the best way is to run away.
"Roar" The magic bear used up all its magic power to cast the most powerful earth magic, but unfortunately, it was cut off by a powerful force just after it was launched. This is also the secret of magic that Cage discovered during long-term training.
"Woo woo" The voice of the magic bear began to whimper, as if asking for mercy.
Cage even felt that his mental power could completely contact the mental power of the magic bear. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind and he discovered a secret. It turned out that the mental frequency was the source of the magic bear's magic, and it was also the way they talked.
The magic bear suddenly felt that he had come to a strange world. A tall man with golden light stood in front of him, which made him surrender.
"Why did you come here?" The magic bear felt that this powerful man was questioning himself.
"Woo woo", the magic bear still made such a whimpering sound. Although outsiders could not understand their language, Cage fully understood that he and the magic bear were communicating with the spirit. He simulated the frequency of the spirit and educated the magic bear. He let the magic bear go. Now he didn't care about the escape of the magic bear.
After a long exchange, the magic bear crawled down and rubbed Cage's arm with its head to express its submission. Cage probably understood why. It turned out that it was driven out of the territory by another powerful creature. After losing his territory, he could only come to the outskirts of the forest to avoid offending the powerful creature in the forest. That's why he ran into Cage and his friends. But it was also Cage and his friends' bad luck. They came to this place to hunt when the magic bear was out wandering, so the encounter happened.
When House woke up, it was already dark. He even thought he was dead. The attack of the magic bear made him faint at the moment of contact. Looking at the burning campfire, was he still alive? Who saved them? House suddenly stood up. He was surprised to find that his wounds had healed. Could it be that the one who saved him was a priest, a powerful magician, and only the mysterious magician could defeat the magic bear.
He looked around and found Cage grilling food by the campfire.
"Your Highness, who saved us?" House asked curiously, but Cage did not answer, just smiled slightly. House's slow head only felt that Cage's smile had a deep meaning, but he could not guess the reason at all.
"Woo." The magic bear poked its head out, biting a huge magic pig thigh in its mouth, and brought the magic pig over.
"Your Highness, be careful." House suddenly became nervous, and once again urged his fighting spirit, staring at the magic bear, guarding beside Cage.
"Woo woo" The magic bear ignored him at all and walked straight towards Cage.
"Okay, don't be nervous, this is my magic pet Xiaohei, don't bully it in the future." Cage smiled and comforted.
House felt his head exploded, and he couldn't find the direction at all. Although there were many people who could own magic beasts on the whole continent, they were all limited to level 6 or below. There were very few people like Cage who had level 8. There were very few in the whole history of the continent. First, high-level magic beasts were intelligent and generally would not surrender; second, high-level magic beasts were very cunning and difficult to find; third, high-level magic beasts were strong and ordinary people could not defeat them. House looked carefully and found that there was no sign of the contract on Xiao Hei's head. Can a magic beast without a magic contract be called a magic pet? House's brain was completely short-circuited now.
"Sit down, House, skin the magic pig and cut it open." Cage smiled and asked House to sit down. Xiao Hei put the magic pig in front of House, and then returned to Cage's side, crawling beside Cage, looking at the burning flames, very obedient, and behaved exactly the same as a magic pet, with no difference.
House foolishly peeled the skin of the magic pig with a sword, cut the meat into pieces, strung it on the arrows brought by Cage, and roasted it on the campfire. After a while, there was a "sizzling" sound. The meat was probably almost roasted. Cage put some seasonings of this continent on it, and the aroma came out all of a sudden. Xiao Hei next to him was already drooling. The magic bear is an omnivore, and it doesn't avoid cooked food, and even likes to eat cooked food. There are still a few seasonings in this world. If there are cumin and other ingredients from the previous life, the taste will be good. Take off a roasted thigh, cool it down a little, and put it in front of Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei has already pounced on it, which is no different from the delicious magic dog.
The two people and the bear quietly enjoyed this dinner. The magic bear ate the most, and most of the magic pig was eaten by him. Cage only ate a little bit, and House ate a little more. After eating, Xiao Hei lay down beside Cage to rest, like an obedient puppy.
"House, are you willing to be loyal to me for life?" Cage looked at House and smiled. He was impressed by House's loyalty and always stayed by his side in times of danger. Only such a person could serve him and become his man.
"I do." Even if House was slow, he knew that this was an opportunity. If no one helped, it must be that Cage was very powerful. He could recapture a demon bear without a contract. Cage's strength should have reached the Saint level. Even the entire empire was not stronger than him. Moreover, he would always be Cage's bodyguard. Allegiance was just an opportunity. House knelt on one knee in front of Cage, lowered his head, raised the one-handed sword in his hands above his head with both hands, and asked for Cage's recognition.
Cage smiled slightly. It seemed that House was not stupid yet. He took the sword from his hand and put the ridge of the sword against House's head. "I give you the title of Guardian Knight. From now on, you will be the first Guardian Knight beside me." This is a privilege of the nobles. As a guardian knight beside the nobles, you have privileges that the nobles' subordinates cannot have. You can execute more orders for the master and restrain any of the nobles' subordinates. If Cage becomes the king, then House will at least be a duke and will have more privileges in the empire, and now he will also get the privileges of the nobles. "After returning, let Watson handle the procedures for the nobles for you."
"Yes, Your Highness." House replied respectfully.
"Everything you saw today can only be kept in your heart and never told to others. If I find out that you revealed today's information, I will send you away personally." Cage paused, "If anyone asks, you can say that the two of us ran around the magic bear in the forest and exhausted our strength to capture it. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Your Highness." House knew what he should do.
