System Order: Pledge Pact!

"Big brother!!!" Yao screamed on the top of his lungs, and he scampered towards Maggard's corpse while trembling in fright, as he couldn't control his body, causing him to trip down on the ground. However, despite that, Yao still approached his brother by crawling on the ground as he burst into tears.

Yao didn't know what happened, since Kim Shin smoothly activated his 'Soul Control' killing Maggard effortlessly.

Reaching Maggard's body that had cut in half, Yao immediately held his brother's corpse, drenching his hands with his big brother's blood, as he spoke while trying to mend Maggard's body. "B...Brother?! N-No brother, please don't leave me alone!"

Kim Shin on the other hand, after killing Maggard, leisurely walked toward at Clay's direction, and upon reaching the white-haired man, he looked down and said. "I already fulfilled my promise. So, I hope you're not those kinds of guys that backing at their words after achieving their goal. Also, just a friendly reminder, I could kill you if I desire!"

Kim Shin's friendly reminder sent a chill down to Clay's spine.

Then, after a moment of struggling, Clay finally managed to sit on the ground, he then exhaled before looking directly to Kim Shin's dark blue and mesmerizing eyes. Before saying seriously. "You don't need to worry. I'm sincere at my words. Although, it's weird to say but, you can trust me!"

As he end those words, silence filled the surroundings, as Kim Shin and Clay stared at each other.

"And let me thank you for listening in my absurd request. Though it wasn't enough, please accept this..." Clay continued as he suddenly bowed to Kim Shin.

Clay was sincerely grateful at Kim Shin's help. It's hard to believe that there is a person in this insane world that willing to help a stranger like him, despite the possibility of betrayal.

Still in bowing position, Clay couldn't control himself anymore and he burst into tears.

"Sob! Sob!"

'Uncles! Although I'm not the one who slew the prime killer of your deaths, I'm still proud to say that I've finally achieved justice for all of you. I hope you'll are happy now, wherever you guys are!'

Kim Shin saw and felt the sincerity in Clay's words, as he stared at the weeping young-man. Though he does have a lot of question to Clay, he still understood that this is not the right time for this.

Awoo! 'Brother!'

"Young man!"

Hearing Teddy and Victor's voices, Kim Shin turned his head to the left and he saw them quickly approaching him, causing him to break into a smile.

'Fortunately, I'm not alone.' He gladly thought.

He was certain that if he traveled all alone, his day will probably boring and full of depressing thought, and there's a high possibility that might do something insane, or in worst he might go mad.

Although it wasn't that long when Victor and Teddy joined him, it was still enough for them to have and create memories that they could bring in their hearts in their lifetime.

"Are you alright, Kim Shin?" Victor concernedly asked.

Victor was truly obvious that he is worried about Kim Shin well-being. Since, he called Kim Shin's full name and not 'young man'.

"I'm fine, you don't need to worry." Kim Shin answered with a smile, as he looked at the pale white cub on Victor's head.

Awoo? 'Really?' Teddy doubly asked with a faint howl.

"Yeah, yeah." Answered by Kim Shin, as he took a single step forward and patting Teddy's fluffy head.

Woo!

After that, Kim Shin suddenly stretched his right hand above the sobbing Clay's head. He then muttered under his breath. "Soul Heal!"

Shing!

A small magic circle appeared before Kim Shin's hand, it was shining with purplish light. As the lights fell and touched Clay's injured body, the white-haired man abruptly stop in crying when a warm feeling run through his body, and he saw at the corner of his eyes, his health bar quickly recovered by 25% which dumbfounded him.

Clay then couldn't help but look at the source of the light, the man who helped him, who he thought was a warrior type was actually has a powerful healing skill.

"What are you?" He asked with widened eyes and gaping jaw.

Although Victor and Teddy were also surprised, they had enough, they couldn't count how many times Kim Shin did surprised them.

"It should be enough..." Kim Shin said to Clay.

"What do you me—?"

"You know what I mean." Kim Shin quickly interjected with a meaningful stare.

Seeing Kim Shin's reaction, Clay caught a glimpse of a crying man behind Kim Shin.

"Thank you. This is enough." Clay gratefully said as he nodded at Kim Shin, which confused Victor and Teddy.

'What are they talking about?'

When suddenly—

Fwoosh!

Yao suddenly appeared behind Clay and quickly activated a skill, as his dagger shone with crimson light.

"Multiple Vital Stab!" Yao shouted as he stabbed his dagger to Clay's back multiple times.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

Clouds of dust surfaced, instantly engulfing Yao and Clay's figure as the impact caused a loud explosion that also brought shockwaves.

Fwoosh!

'A sneak attack?!' Victor thought in worry while crossing his arm before him.

BOOOM! Clang!

Fwoosh!

A human figure rocketed out of the huge cloud of dust, and it flew a dozen meters away before eventually crashing on the ground, causing a web-like cracked around it.

Crack~

Yao didn't breath and move an inch after that!

"Thank you for granting me this opportunity, Mr. Kim Shin! No, Young master!" Clay's voice suddenly echoed out as the cloud of dust dissipated.

"Young Master?!"

Awoo?!

Victor and Teddy yelped in astonishment. This formidable young man was actually willing to treat Kim Shin as his young master!

"I'm already prepared to take that Blood Oath." Clay continued, causing Kim Shin to smiled creepily.

"Very well then..."

**************

Standing at the massive liquid door, Kim Shin turned around and looked at his three companions.

"Are you guys, really don't want to go to the last floor?" He couldn't help but asked once again. Although they had been talking about this on the way, Kim Shin was surprisingly hesitant to go alone.

No one could blame him at all!

Having companions in his journey was truly fun, it was different experience. Truly different compared to his two best friends back in the past.

"Young Master, you don't need to worry! I will follow your plan after this, and I'll promise to become stronger before meeting you.." Clay respectfully said, he finally done the 'Blood Oath' and he came to know that his young master was shrouded in mystery because of his vast knowledge in the unknown world.

"Young man, I'll promise to see you and repay you for all your kindness one day!" Victor spoke loudly as the corner of his eyes began to moist.

He is utterly grateful at Kim Shin, although they first meeting was bad, It's not enough to ignore all Kim Shin's kindness given to him. Probably, if Kim Shin didn't have him as his guard, he is certain that he is already a bone dead body.

Kim Shin smiled at their words, as his gaze landed on the pale white cub on Victor. "Teddy..."

AWOOOO! 'You're not going anywhere brother!'

"Hahaha. I'm not going anywhere if you don't want to. However, you need to make a choice. It's either make a contract with me as your master or watch me go and leave you alone." Kim Shin mischievously said as he stopped himself from laughing.

However, contrary to his expectation, Teddy took this seriously as he yapped loudly and said. "No! I'm willing!'

"System Order! Pledge Pact!"

Teddy uttered in his mind as his entire body shone with a pale yellow light.

Ding!

[Electro Scavenger Bear want to take you as his master! Would you like to accept? (Yes|No)]

"Eh?" Kim Shin exclaimed in bewilderment. He didn't know what happened, he was just teasing Teddy when suddenly the pale white cub began to shone and the system's window appeared before his eyes.

Before he accept it, Kim Shin stared at the white cub for a moment, as he broke into smile before clicking the 'Yes' button.

Fwoosh!

Teddy suddenly turned to a ball of light and float in the air for a moment before piercing through Kim Shin's temple.
