Chapter 19 - Qin Yun

Chapter 19 – Qin Yun

[Master, Madam wants you to have a battle with one of our customers to prove that we are not lying about the training service] Sery informed Lucas.

"Do we even have a place to battle?" Lucas asked. Although the nursery was expanded with the space room, it was not enough for a battle to unfold.

[No need to worry about it. I am going to prepare the place] said Sery. Since this pertained to the image and dignity of the nursery, he decided to create a room for pet battling.

Lucas nodded and waited for Katheryn to call for him. If he came out before Katheryn called for him, it would be suspicious. Lucas glanced at Fury that was playing around with Red and Blue and said, "Fury! We are having a battle soon." Fury looked at Lucas and hopped around happily.

At the counter, Katheryn said to Qin Yun, "Please wait a minute. I will tell my son first," Katheryn entered the door behind her and called for Lucas. Lucas came to her immediately. "Do your best. It is fine if you lose. What we need now is to prove that our training made Fury strong," said Katheryn while patting Lucas's shoulder.

Both of them came out of the door.

Sarah looked at Lucas and frowned. 'He looks to be in his fifteen but… his cultivation is too low. Stage 1 Rank 2? His potential is probably low,' as an experienced and strong tamer as well as a teacher, it did not take Sarah long to find out Lucas's power.

'This kid from the Phoenix Clan is at the same rank as this guy,' thought Sarah.

Lucas looked at Qin Yun and the old butler and introduced himself. "I am Lucas Pasken," Lucas introduced his name and bowed slightly to show his courtesy.

"I am Lu Qin Yun from the Lu Family," Qin Yun made a simple introduction too. The old butler by Qin Yun side stared at Lucas from head to toe and he frowned. Similar to Sarah, he could see that Lucas was weak.

"We have prepared a place for the battle," said Katheryn and she led them to a door that suddenly appeared at the right side of the waiting area shocking Sarah, Qin Yun, and the old butler.

"Can I see the battle too?" Sarah asked as she wanted to see the result of training in the nursery.

Katheryn looked at Qin Yun and the old butler and said, "If Mr. Qin Yun does not mind, you can follow us too."

"Sure. Why not? I want to have this battle to see if the nursery is telling the truth about training service," Qin Yun did not mind it and he added, "Let's call those crowds too. They are doubting this nursery too. Let them see this battle too. Let's do this in one go."

"Then, I will invite everyone inside," said the old butler.

'Is the place enough to accommodate everyone?' Lucas asked Sery in his mind.

[It is enough. I made a small arena] said Sery. Lucas was shocked. Since he decided to make one, it was better to go all out.

The old butler got out of the nursery and told the crowd what had happened. All of them decided to see the battle. They were curious too if what was advertised was the truth. There were about 100 of them that decided to watch the battle.

As all of them stepped inside the nursery, they were greeted with the clean, spacious waiting area. All of them were surprised. 'Whoa~ space room. This is not a normal nursery,' one of them thought.

Once they were all there, Katheryn led them through the door. Once they got in, they were greeted with a small arena. There was a green field in the middle. A common 500 meters circumference field. The field was protected by a layer of a barrier. Surrounding the field were stone seats like those in the stadium.

Everyone was shocked including Lucas and Katheryn. Sery went all out.

The old butler turned serious when he saw this. Even without the battle, he already knew that the nursery was abnormal. He glanced at Lucas and Katheryn. 'One of them is a system user! This nursery is a blessing to this city!' The old butler exclaimed in his heart.

'I need to report this to the clan's elders. We need to forge a good relationship with this nursery,' the old butler looked excited and he was glad that his young master insisted on testing the nursery.

'Now, everything makes sense. The high technologies! The door that suddenly appeared! This small arena! The impossible services! Only system power can do this!!' The old butler got too excited. 'Since this is a nursery, they must have the nursery system. A beneficial system for everyone!'

[Hou~ The old butler knows about the system. So, the Phoenix Clan has a system user too. Hmm, ~ Let's check your memories~] Sery happily read through the old butler's memory. He wanted to find out more about the Phoenix Clan.

Although the old butler knew about the system, Qin Yun seemed oblivious about it. Sery did not need to read through Qin Yun's memory because he knew that Qin Yun was too young for the elders in the Phoenix Clan to disclose this to him.

"Well then, everyone can sit here while Lucas and Mr. Qin Yun can head to the field," said Katheryn.

"I will be the referee for this battle," Sarah volunteered. Katheryn let her be the referee. Everyone found a seat and sat there while anticipating the battle. They wanted to see the results of the training service.

Lucas and Qin Yun walked to the two ends of the field. Lucas glanced at Qin Yun and used Appraisal Eyes. He could see that Qin Yun was 10 years old with the cultivation of Stage 1 Rank 2 but none of his stats had maxed out. Even so, Lucas was surprised to see that Qin Yun had grade A potential with Tier 7 capture power.

'A super genius in talent and capture power,' thought Lucas. 'Will his first pet be a tier 7 monster?' Lucas wondered.

Since everyone could officially become a pet tamer at the age of 10 that meant Qin Yun had just become a tamer. So, even if his pet was Tier 7, its stats might not be that high.

"I wonder what kind of battle we will see?" One of the spectators was excited.

"It will not be anything amazing. The young man is a Stage 1 Rank 2 tamer and the same goes for the rich kid. It will be a dull battle," said another spectator.

"Since the nursery is going to showcase the result of the training service, I doubt it will be a dull battle. They will not boast it if nothing is amazing to show," another spectator had a different opinion.

Sarah looked at both of them and once they were in position, she asked them for confirmation. Both of them were ready. "This will be a 1V1 Order Mode battle. Both tamer, please summon your pet," Sarah instructed.

Lucas and Qin Yun nodded. Qin Yun stretched his hand forward and a card appeared in his hand. "Raillow, comes out!" shouted Qin Yun. He was excited when he summoned his pet, Raillow.

Qin Yun's pet card shone and in front of him appeared a small white cat with seven stripes on its back. Out of the seven striped, three of them had different colors. One was red, one was yellow and one was a shining white. The other four stripes had no color.

When Raillow appeared, everyone exclaimed in shock.

"Seven Striped Cat!!" One of the spectators exclaimed.

"A monster that will become Tier 7 once all of the stripes on its back had colors. This Seven Striped Cat had three colors, meaning it is a Tier 3 monster right now. Once all of the stripes have colors, it will be a Tier 7 monster," another spectator said.

"Not only that, but the stripes also represent all the elements that the cat can have. Right now, it has red, yellow, and shining white. Red is fire, yellow is electricity, shining white is light," added another spectator.

Lucas was shocked too and he appraised Raillow.

"…" Lucas was silent. The Seven Striped Cat was impressive. He admitted it. The maximum stats it could reach was much more than Fury. Even so, he knew that the cat he saw right now had not gone through much training yet. The stats it had now were inferior to Fury. The skill was the same too.

[This will be an easy battle. Try to prolong the battle. Show off all the skills that Fury has] Sery told Lucas.

"I wonder what pet will the nursery's owner's son use?" One of the spectators said. Everyone knew that Lucas was Katheryn's son. The old butler had explained to them earlier before they got in.

"Will it be a rare and high tier pet like the rich kid?"

Lucas took out Fury's card and summoned Fury. He did not say anything. There was no need to call out the name of the pet when a tamer summoned them. People usually said it to pump up themselves and some thought that it sounded cool. Lucas thought that it was embarrassing shouting the pet name when summoning them so he did not do that.

Everyone anticipated what pet Lucas would summon. Since the nursery claimed to be abnormal, they might see a super rare pet. They held their breath as Fury came out.

On the green field, a ball of white fur appeared. Everyone was stunned and they were speechless.

"A white furball?!" One of the spectators exclaimed in shock. Not the amazing kind of shock but the disappointing kind of shock.

"Pfft!" Some of them tried to hold their laughter. They found it funny not because they were ridiculing Fury but because their prediction was far off.

"Make sense. They want to show off the result of the training service. If they use the rare and powerful monster in nature, it will not be convincing,��� said one of the spectators.

"Yeah~ We can see the result much clearer with the weakest monster in existence," said another spectator.

"Not only that. All of us are familiar with the furball. They are useless in battle and get popular because they are cute and suitable as a house pet," someone else added.

"I guess, we will see the first-ever combat furball," another spectator added.

"This battle has just turned interesting," said another spectator.

Many of them started taking out their phone and wanted to record the battle. "White Furball vs Seven Stripes Cat! Battle of the Century!" said one of the spectators who just started recording with his phone. He added, "That will be a great title for this video, kekeke."

While everyone else was having fun with this incoming battle. The old butler looked serious. 'Will this system be as powerful as other systems? This furball will show me everything,' thought the old butler. He looked around him and saw people recording the battle.

'If Young Master Qin Yun loses, will this become a big issue?' The old butler was worried. Since people were recording and if Qin Yun loses, it will be known to everyone in the city. Other than the title [White Furball Vs Seven Stripes Cat! Battle of the Century!] there might be another title that appeared such as [Phoenix Clan's Genius Young Master lose to a Furball] and so on.

While everyone in the spectator seat got excited about the battle, Qin Yun frowned when he saw Fury. 'Is he going to use this furball?' Qin Yun thought but he soon realized what they were trying to do.

'That's right! Their mission is to show off the training service. If what they advertised is true, that means this is not a normal furball. This furball is possibly very strong. I need to take this fight seriously,' thought Qin Yun.

Qin Yun might appear to be a cold and arrogant young master from a big clan but he was not stupid and rash. He knew what was right and wrong. He was also taught to think through anything that happened in front of him no matter how ridiculous it was. Anything that happened was with a reason. No matter what it was, there was a reason.

Thanks to that, he managed to think rationally. He did not rush to a conclusion and think through what was happening.

[These guys are thinking too much] said Sery.

'Hmm? What do you mean?' Lucas asked.

[They thought that you use furball to show off that our training service is superior, that we can train a useless furball to something amazing. Kekeke, while they are not wrong, they are not fully right either. You don't have enough money to buy a better tier 1 pet so you can only buy a furball. You don't have other pets too and this is the only one. Kekeke] Sery was amused.

'… Whatever. What they think of us is not a bad thing,' said Lucas.

Sarah was shocked too when she saw Fury but she calmed herself. She looked at Lucas and Qin Yun and shouted, "Battle Start!"
