Chapter 177 (Shadow Panther | Lightning Wolf)

"Okay... I'm going to explain again... I'm quite confused though of how legendary beast or creatures are the one coming out from the summoning circle." Scáthach was confused.

She didn't how could this dream-like reality happened... The cause of all this was after all his blood. The blood of the God Ruler, it was just a fleeting idea that he thought of this but he didn't think it would work.

Hearing Scáthach's confusion he just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Anyway, this one here is a Shadow Panther. There is not much explanation as I don't know it quite well. And just like any ordinary panther it has good sense, fast speed and more. They only differ from their name... Like how it has a name shadow, this panther has an ability regarding shadows and is known for it's assassination... It can blend in the dark and with just one fell swoop destroy it's enemies.

Of course, if it only has that ability it won't live to it's title as a legendary beast. The shadow panther is infamous for it's [Invisibility] skill... because of this skill it has earned the title of the most legendary assassin. Though, I don't know to what extent it can go invisible. In terms of destructive abilities the shadow panther pale in comparison to others but if we compare it to a one one one fight... or the speed to kill it is one of the best." Scáthach finished explaining.

"Invisibility huh?... That is one terrifying ability to have." He said.

"That's right... this kind of skill is best for an assassin and undercover work." Eva said.

"It would be scary if your enemy has that kind of skill... you won't even notice how you would die." Violette said

"It'd be cool if I have that skill... I would practically be invincible." Clara exclaimed.

"Invincible? Heh... even the Gods won't dare to call themselves invincible... Remember this... No one is perfect and everybody has a weakness. Don't think that because you can be invisible you can defeat anyone... Naive! Every thing has a loophole so what if you can't see him. It's not like only your eyes can sense him." Scáthach snorted.

"Well... I guess." Clara said.

"It's not like you're wrong either... All I know about the shadow panther came from just rumors and legends. Maybe his invisibility skill can also hide every beings senses, for example the sound, touch, and more." Scáthach said.

"You can also question if he can remain invisible forever... I'm pretty sure it would cause some mana." He smiled.

"I kinda have a similar skill to invisibility... During our training when I was still at the Lunar God Clan we were tasked to learn a skill... But so far I'm the only one who learned... the [Stealth]. Kiara said.

"Eh? Really? Let me see!." Clara excitedly said.

"Well, it's not that much... here." Kiara said and she suddenly disappeared form their sight.

"Amazing..." Clara and the others were surprised.

"I can still know where she is... though I can't see her. My other senses could pinpoint her location especially the aura in her body." Scáthach said.

"Yeah... this is one of it's weakness." Kiara said... though in the others point of view they could only hear her voice but not see her.

"I guess Little Scathy can't beat me regarding this then... I can completely see her." He smiled while activating his [All-Seeing Eye] it seems his golden eyes can even see someone invisible.

"What? You can see me?..." Kiara said in surprised as she became visible again. "This is the other weakness... I can't maintain it for too long."

"It's because you are using a skill that counters hers." Scáthach rolled her eyes.

"Anyway, what does he need or maybe she? Catherine." He said. While they were talking Catherine was already communicating with the Shadow Panther.

"It's a she! It said it doesn't need anything because I, having the dark element is enough. But it has a request to always give her a lot of food when it is time for her meal." Catherine said.

"I see... this one is easy then." He said. It was relief that the Shadow Panther didn't want anything hard to get.

With that, Catherine made a contract with the Shadow Panther. It was also three levels above her. Currently, she was at the Mythic rank and three level above that was the shadow panther's level which is the Arcana rank.

The Shadow Panther's was at least twice the size bigger than any normal panther. This would be a good mount for Catherine.

...

"Let me try next please." Kiara raised her hands and the other women didn't voice any complain.

"Okay..." He nodded.

Kiara followed what the others did before.

As the magic circle shined for the fourth time now... and the moment the light receded a dark-purple colored wolf appeared. It's size was the same as Catherine's shadow panther.

Scáthach already know what her job is... with a sigh she said, "This one is a Lightning Wolf!..." As she was about to explain. Kiara's excited voice interrupted her.

"Yes! This was what I wanted... A beast with lightning element." Kiara excitedly said, she was adept it lightning magic so having a beast with the same element the she love the most made her excited.

"Well... The creature that appears will of course suit you; dropping your blood was not for nothing." He smiled.

"Scathe... explain please." Kiara excitedly turned to Scáthach.

"I was just about to... Anyway, as I said before this one is a Lightning Wolf. Like the name suggest this wolf's abilities are related to lightning. It is said before that a lightning wolf is blessed by the heavens so a thunder tribulation won't affect it... and it's destructive abilities are limitless.

It's just a hunch but maybe if someone can have a contract with this beast it can help you face your lightning tribulation in the future...

Though, as of now don't think about it yet I will tell you all about it later, when all of you are much more stronger. Of course, that is not all of it's capabilities because if was only just that it doesn't deserve to be called a legendary beast, as many strong beast can also cause massive destruction.

The Lightning wolf was called a Legendary beast because of it's ability called the [Black Lightning]. The black lightning was one of the world's most destructive magic... because when a Lightning Wolf became stronger it is common knowledge that the skill will also get stronger... but when the black lightning reach a certain state or rank it can even rival the thunder tribulation of heaven. This beast is called by many names and the most famous name was 'Disaster Wolf'.

"So strong!." Kiara exclaimed.

"That's right... but it's not like the others contracted beast are any weaker though." Scáthach nodded.

"I'm pretty sure it can't beat mine." Catherine teased her.

"What did you say? I can't hear anything." Kiara ignored her and excitedly communicated with the lightning wolf.

"Thunder Tribulation huh? Will I also face that in the future." He wondered.

"I'm sure you will." Scáthach said.

"Didn't you boast before that you are friends with the lord of heaven? There is no way he would struck you with lightning right?." Eva chuckled.

"Haha, I almost forgot about that... When we face that kind of situation let your friend help us." Violette also laughed.

"That was what I wondering okay? And let me make it clear I did talk to him." He didn't know whether to laugh or cry... He already told the truth and they wouldn't believe him.

"Yeah we believe you." Alexia giggled.

"Keep boasting... I will listen." Catherine smiled

"Hehe.." Clara laughed.

"What was this about?." Scáthach got confused.

"Well, you see. Before..." Rose proceeded to explain to Scáthach what happened before.

"Haha," Scáthach also laughed when she heard it. Of course, she didn't believe it.

...

"Enough laughing! Kiara what does it need?." He asked.

"It said it wants anything related to lightning element as long as it's a good material." Kiara asnwered.

"How about this then?." He had a lot of lightning sees that was the material for concocting the [True Awakening Pill] with lightning element.

Kiara took the seeds and offered it to the lightning wolf, "She said it's fine."

With that, Kiara also finished her contract.

...

"Zeth said she wanted to try." Rose raised her hand.

"Oh! Really?... do you want to try next?." He was quite surprised about this... it was the first time she took initiative.

"Mhn..." Zeth nodded.
