Frost

When they returned to the cave, Asroth immediately entered the dark part of the cave to see what was at its end.

They didn't sense any strong mana or any signs of a powerful Magic Beast inside.

Asroth felt confident as he walked, holding a glowing piece of wood.

If there were any normal snakes inside, they could easily kill them because Asrah had accidentally reached the 2nd Level of Gathering Mana earlier while absorbing mana from the meat of a Magic Beast!

Asrah was indeed a genius, while Asroth thought it would take him another week to reach the 2nd level of gathering mana with the help of 1st tier Magic Beast meat.

Both Asroth and Asrah stopped when they saw what was at the end of the cave.

There were many scattered bones of half-step magic beasts.

But what shocked them wasn't the bones. What shocked them was a small White Phantom Magic Beast sleeping!

It was the offspring of the White Phantom Magic Beast they had fought!

Asroth's suspicion was correct; there was indeed a den of the Magic Beast here, which was why it strayed near the village.

The young Magic Beast was only a few weeks old and still blind. Asroth's heart raced as he slowly approached the magic beast.

"We hit the jackpot, Asrah! Hahaha," Asroth laughed loudly in excitement.

According to what he knew from the memories of the former Asroth, a Magic Beast needs to be weeks or months old to be easily tamed using a Mana Soul Contract. If it were older, it would require a slave imprint.

Asroth touched the smooth fur of the small Magic Beast.

Its color emitted a cold mana.

"Asrah, can I borrow your dagger?" Asroth quickly asked.

Asrah immediately handed it over and approached Asroth, watching the Magic Beast with shining eyes filled with joy.

If they managed to tame it, they would have a 1st Tier Magic Beast!

Asroth and Asrah joined their hands and then looked at each other. Asrah nodded and smiled.

Asroth swiftly cut their hands, and they slowly brought them close to the Magic Beast to let it drink their blood.

Then, they controlled their Mana Souls to connect with the Mana Soul of the White Phantom Magic Beast to form a soul contract.

A few minutes passed, and they successfully formed the Soul Contract with the Magic Beast!

(Gruuu)

The Magic Beast approached them, and Asrah quickly picked it up and hugged it.

Asroth smiled as he watched them.

Their Magic Beast was still very small, but Asroth knew it would grow significantly in just a few months.

"What do you want to name our first Magic Beast, Asrah?" Asroth asked Asrah, since he wasn't good at naming.

Asrah looked at their Magic Beast for a few seconds before speaking.

"Frost."

Now they had a 1st level Magic Beast, and no one in the entire Feather Village had one!
