"A Living War Machine"

Right after Ainsley named the baby Phoenix, she got someone to bring her a contract scroll to contract the Phoenix. 

After all, the Phoenix wasn't a guardian beast passed down in the Sloan Family. 

To make a contract with her, Ainsley needed external help. Of course, usually, one needed a beast tamer to help the customer contract the beast. 

However, Ainsley only used her charm against the baby Phoenix while patting her bald head...and the baby Phoenix already chirped excitedly. 

"Pyak! Pyak!" 

The baby Phoenix, Blaze, hugged Ainsley's fingers with her wings, not letting the baby go. She even looked at Ainsley with her beady eyes...as if Ainsley was her mother. 

Ainsley almost tossed away the Phoenix out of fright. 

Don't look at me as if I'm your mom! And what's with your noise? Pyak pyak? Why are you so indecent even when you're only a baby?! 

Ainsley clearly wasn't trying to scold herself…
