Chapter 29: Black Magic Spirit

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Under Nina’s magic power transmission, the demon wolf’s expression gradually calmed down. Michael took the opportunity to chant a Purification Charm and release a powerful spell to work with Nina to purify the beast.

As the magic power continued to flow, the dark patterns on the beast’s body began to fade. Under Nina’s healing magic, it gradually recovered from its weakened state.

When the last bit of magic power fused into the wolf’s body, it completely transformed into a spiritual pet, revealing its original dark gray fur, looking very majestic.

“We also have our own spirit pets!” Mr. Royce cheered. “Let’s see who dares to look down on us now.”

“That’s right. This is your first spiritual pet. Let’s give it a name.” Carl looked calmer, but he was obviously thrilled.

“Just call him Alan.” Nina considered for a moment and said. The spirit wolf nodded after hearing it, agreeing to the name.

The taming of magical beasts depended heavily on one’s strength and talent, as well as fate. It was not as simple as purifying the magical beasts. You also need the spirit beast to acknowledge you and voluntarily sign a contract with the mage before you could become the mage’s spirit pet.

If the spirit beast did not acknowledge the mage, it would suffer harsh backlash, even if a high-level one used his strength to force the spirit beast to serve it.

There were not many mages who had successfully tamed a spirit beast, and it was even more difficult to tame a large intermediate-level spirit beast like the Demon Wolf, which had strong offensive and loyalty attributes.

This was because they rarely recognized a master, and it was quite difficult to tame them.

Most of the highest-level spiritual pets in the mage teams of mage trainers and mage apprentices were rabbits, owls, weasels, and other animals. Magic apprentices who could tame foxes could be said to be one of the few gifted ones. If any mage team had such a member, they would definitely publicize it.

Not to mention that the main force in taming the magic wolf this time was the magic apprentice Nina in the team. It could be said that in the entire Tyre Continent, Nina was the only mage who had tamed a magic beast like a demon wolf when she was still an apprentice.

With the team of mages now whole, and with the addition of a beast-taming genius in Mage Team Z, they could basically do whatever they wanted in Derek Academy. Mr. Royce and Carl did not probe the wolf’s state. They only saw that Nina and Michael had just injected their magic power, and the wolf obediently lay on the ground and did not move. Immediately after, it was successfully tamed and even recognized as its master.

“Not bad.” Mr. Royce praised, “Let’s go to a restaurant to have a meal tonight. We have to celebrate.”

“We still have to call York over and let this kid promote us. I’ll write and have the owl send it.” As he spoke, Mr. Royce took out a talisman and wrote the contents on it.

“Go ahead.” Mr. Royce handed the letter to the owl that he carried with him. It took the letter with its claws and flapped its wings to fly off his shoulder. Soon, the bird disappeared into the distance.

Michael and Nina had seen the demon wolf’s situation at that time, and they knew that the reason why they managed to tame it this time was that it happened to be heavily injured, which allowed them to take the opportunity so easily.

Moreover, looking at the injuries on the magic beasts, this was definitely not the work of a mage, nor did it seem like the style of a black mage. What was that thing that could leave a hole in the demon wolf’s body without hurting its appearance? It even took the opportunity to absorb most of its black magic.

It seemed like there were too many things in the Black Forest that Michael and the others did not understand. There was no benefit in overthinking. It seemed that they might not encounter such danger for a while, so there was no need to trouble Mr. Royce and the others.

At the thought of this, Michael and Nina looked at each other. Both of them had a tacit understanding and covered up this matter. They turned around and revealed a big smiles, in line with their teammates. “That’s right. We have to celebrate this time.”

Deep in the Dark Forest.

It hurt.

It was too painful.

The bone-piercing pain threw Miller on the ground, gasping for breath.

Just now, the black magic spirit had encountered a demon wolf, and it had recklessly controlled Miller to go up and capture it. However, Miller’s mana was clearly insufficient to deal with this magic wolf, which was at its peak.

After a few rounds, Miller’s entire body was covered in injuries from the enraged demonic wolf. Almost all the bones in his body were broken. Many white bones pierced through Miller’s flesh and came out from different places.

If it was an ordinary mage, even if he did not die, he would have been lying on the ground, unable to move due to his broken bones. However, Miller was being controlled by the black magic spirit. Still, he propped himself up, his twisted limbs forming a strange posture on the ground as he pounced toward the demon wolf.

Every time Miller came into contact with the wolf, the black magic spirit would extend its feelers and infuse some black magic into the beast. In a short while, the black magic that was instilled into the demon wolf controlled it and penetrated its body wantonly.

The demon wolf turned around and wanted to escape because the situation was not right. At this moment, something unexpected happened.

The black magic spirit once again used the same life connection spell, and Miller’s feelings were instantly transmitted to the wolf. The immense pain it felt caused it to fall to the ground, and it was unable to move anymore.

The black magic spirit didn’t stay idle either. It transformed into a black wriggling form and used its feelers to penetrate Miller’s body again, drilling into his abdomen. The black magic rapidly pierced through Miller’s newly grown internal organs and injected poison into them.

“Ugh!” The immense pain made Miller retch but didn’t spit anything out.

Half of the black magic spirit was used to control the wolf. It was busy absorbing the beast’s mana and neglected Miller’s control. Miller also seized the opportunity to cut open its abdomen with a knife and put his hand inside.

Fresh blood gushed out of the wound, dyeing Miller’s robe and hands bright red. He reached his hand into the wolf’s abdominal cavity and grabbed out half of the heard left behind by the black magic spirit, trying to pull it out of his blood vessels. The black magic spirit was slippery to begin with, so it was even harder to grab hold of it when it was stained with blood.

It slipped out of his hand as soon as Miller caught it. This was a rare opportunity. He simply used the knife to enlarge the wound and reached in to cut open a few main arteries, exposing the black magic spirit. Then, he used the knife to pick it out.

Not long after, Miller’s body was covered in cuts and scratches, like a cotton doll that had been torn apart. Beside him were black magic spirits that had been expelled.
