Chapter 2 Different Destinies (Seeking Investment and Followers)

"Young Master, does it mean that you have lost your memory?"

Lin Su leaned back against the head of the bed, nodding helplessly at the middle-aged man frowning and asking the question before him.

When he first awoke, he thought it was just a prank someone had played on him while he was sleeping, but as a middle-aged couple, who claimed to be his parents, rushed into the room with excitement and showered him with questions about his well-being, Lin Su quickly realized something was amiss.

He had transmigrated.

What's worse, the transmigrated him seemed to have no memory of his original self, and right after he crossed over, he met his closest family members.

This left him with no opportunity to give ambiguous answers, and in the end, he could only bluntly claim he had lost his memory.

The frowning middle-aged man asking the questions was a family physician with the surname Ye, whom his parents had sought upon learning of his amnesia.

After pondering for a moment, Doctor Ye's gaze shifted to Lin Su's parents, "Master, Madam, this is the first time I've encountered such a situation with the Young Master, but amnesia is a matter of the spirit, and it might be related to the Beast Taming Space too. I have a pet beast that can soothe one's spirit; perhaps we could try to see if it can help with the current situation?"

Lin Su listened silently, a thought stirring in his heart.

Beast Taming Space? Pet beasts?

He was all too familiar with these terms.

Did this world also possess powers similar to that of a Beast Tamer?

Lin Su's father frowned slightly and nodded, "Give it a try."

The two decided to proceed with the attempt, and Lin Su did not resist.

He wanted to take this chance to see what the pet beasts in this world were like.

Doctor Ye turned to Lin Su, "Young Master Lin, when I summon my pet beast shortly, please do not be alarmed."

After saying this, lights started to emerge at his feet, interweaving into extremely complex sky-blue patterns on the ground.

Sky blue… a fifth-tier Beast Taming Space?

Was this the work of a master-level Beast Tamer?

Lin Su's mind raced, and in the next moment, his pupils contracted imperceptibly.

With the flash of light, a small, humanoid alien beast appeared before Lin Su. It had a human-like form with eyes and nose but no mouth, and its one-meter-tall body shimmered with a crystal-clear translucence. On its head, it wore a witch hat with a wide brim, with a large bell dangling gently from the topmost point of the hat.

This was…

A mid-ranking sovereign species of alien beast, the Whispering Bell!

The Beast Taming Space of a minor had not yet fully stabilized, and the contract beasts could easily become dangerous, so those under the age of eighteen learn various theoretical knowledge about alien beasts in high school. It was only when they turned eighteen during their final year of high school that apprentice Beast Tamers organized by the school could contract with alien beasts and become official Beast Tamers.

Although he had not yet contracted any alien beast, Lin Su was knowledgeable about every known species of alien beast.

At this moment, as he looked at the pet beast before him, his heart was filled with shock.

Whispering Bell wasn't a higher-ranking species evolved from some lower-ranking species; it was born as a mid-ranking sovereign species. Such an alien beast couldn't escape the restrictions of the Alien Beast Ban. On Blue Star, there was absolutely no possibility of contracting with them.

The Beast Tamers of this world could contract beasts without restrictions, and what was even more incredible was that this world had alien beasts just like ones from his previous life.

The former could be explained by different worlds having different situations, but how was the latter to be explained?

The last piece of information he had browsed before his transmigration suddenly flashed through his mind.

"Researcher Qin stated that even if the Ghost Energy Stone appeared in a world with completely different biological species from Blue Star, there would likely be the same alien beast populations..."

Could it be because of this?

If so, did that mean all the alien beast species on Blue Star existed here as well, and could be contracted without any restrictions?

This conjecture sent waves of turmoil through Lin Su's mind, and his expression changed accordingly. The Lin family parents, who had been continuously observing their beloved child, quickly took note of this change, their eyes revealing a contemplative look.

After summoning the Whispering Bell, Doctor Ye instructed, "Silent Bell."

Whispering Bell: "Ding-a-ling (≧≦)ﾉ"

The bell on its large hat trembled slightly, its sound waves transforming into visible ripples that slowly spread through the void. Anyone touched by the ripples would feel their heart soothed, negative emotions gradually smoothed away.

As expected, Lin Su's previous memories did not return, but thanks to the Silent Bell, he was able to calm his chaotic thoughts.

If he wanted to survive in this world, he could only rely on the parents of this world for now, so he must not let them know that he was not amnesiac but had transmigrated and taken the place of their child.

As for the rest, he would take things one step at a time.

"Xiao Su, do you feel better? Do you remember anything?" Lin Su's mother asked with a hint of nervousness.

The name Lin Su had not changed in this world, which made it much easier for him to adapt.

"Mother, I'm sorry, I still can't remember anything from before," Lin Su shook his head and quickly put on a disappointed expression at not being able to recover his memory.

"If you can't remember, then you can't remember. The family can talk to you about the old times; your memories will eventually come back to you," Lin Su's father said with a smile that was somewhat forced but comforting to Lin Su nonetheless.

Feeling the genuine concern from the two, Lin Su's eyes softened with warmth.

Although they were not his real parents, their affection had indeed given him a sense of parental love that he had missed out on since childhood.
