Chapter 105 -104 Magic

The banquet lasted until one o’clock in the afternoon.

When the feast dispersed, Russell requested that all officials circulate their Battle Qi to dissipate the alcohol, so as not to delay the afternoon’s work. After all, the rat plague had just ended, and Grotto Village had suffered severe damage, and the serfs’ lives needed proper resettlement.

Although the officials left, Kevin did not.

It still needed to protect Russell’s safety and, at the very least, continue to observe the Red-eyed Rat King for three days to ensure its complete submission to Russell.

However, for the entire afternoon, the Red-eyed Rat King behaved very submissively.

Perhaps it was because it had been starving for too long in the grotto, never having had the luxury to eat its fill; suddenly arriving at the estate’s annex, it could feast on delicious food to its heart’s content, cursing that it hadn’t started following Russell sooner to enjoy such indulgences.

“Squeak, squeak.”

“Red-Eye, all Fantasy Beasts can cast magic. Kevin’s signature spell is Explosive Ice-Fire; what’s yours?” Russell began training the Red-eyed Rat King to foster a bond between them and to develop the Rat King’s strength.

In the midst of talking.

Kevin cooperated very well, turning its head to look out the window. One gold and one silver eye emitted light, two beams of light intertwining and rapidly shooting onto a large rock a hundred meters away, then exploded the rock with a loud bang.

The shattered remnants of rock retained traces of freezing or scorching.

“Woof, woof!” Kevin the Gold and Silver Wolfhound, after casting its magic, turned its head back to look at the Red-eyed Rat King and barked twice in a show-off manner.

This was its signature magic, Explosive Ice-Fire.

On the Dragon Sleep Continent, there were no magicians, but there was magic made of Magic Power, a special kind of spell, which, like the Knights’ martial techniques, was called Battle Qi martial skills. Hence, the magic of the Fantasy Beasts was called Prime Breath Spells.

Moreover, when a Fantasy Beast and a Knight united, they could also develop stronger Prime Breath Greatsword Skills based on the Prime Breath Spells.

Because both Prime Breath Spells and Prime Breath Greatsword Skills are composed of Magic Power, they are collectively referred to as magic.

Theoretically, a Phantom Beast Knight is also a part-time magician.

Of course, each Fantasy Beast’s Prime Breath Spell is fixed, similar to innate divine abilities. Therefore, the Prime Breath Greatsword Skills they can develop are quite limited, and many Phantom Beast Knights might only be able to develop one type in their lifetime.

Whether Prime Breath Spells or Prime Breath Greatsword Skills, their essence is to construct them using one’s own power, mirroring the most basic elemental attributes.

Mostly they are earth, water, fire, wind – the four basic elemental attributes.

There are also some special elemental attributes like lightning, light, ice, and darkness.

There is no superiority among the elemental attributes themselves; it mainly depends on the strength of the constructed magic itself and whether the Phantom Beast Knight can develop a stronger Prime Breath Greatsword Skill on the basis of the Prime Breath Spell to showcase the might of their magic.

“Brilliant, look at Kevin, it can already release Explosive Ice-Fire skillfully,” praised Russell, giving a thumbs-up to Kevin.

Kevin raised its head proudly and replied suavely, “Woof!”

Stimulated by this, the Red-eyed Rat King started squeaking discontentedly and then its eyes emitted a bloody red glow.

The glow spread, quickly enveloping its entire body.

The next second.

The Red-eyed Rat King lifted its front paw, took a small step forward, and its form instantly disappeared, reappearing already on the lawn five meters away.

Then the Red-eyed Rat King took another step, and its form vanished again, this time appearing by the pond roughly seven or eight meters away.

“Cool!” exclaimed Russell.

Then he called out, “Don’t go too far, come back here!”

“Squeak, squeak!” responded the Red-eyed Rat King, then turned and stepped; with one step, its form cloaked in red light disappeared once more.

Russell blinked, and it had reappeared on the lawn, pausing only slightly before disappearing for the fourth time, and when it reappeared, it was right next to Russell’s feet.

Meanwhile.

The blood-red glow on its body also started to dim, flickering briefly before it quietly faded away, leaving only the Red-eyed Rat King panting heavily.

The magical consumption was too great, those four steps of instant teleportation were more exhausting than running dozens of kilometers.

“Woof woof!” Kevin’s eyes widened.

Russell touched the Red-eyed Rat King’s head excitedly, “Cool, Red-eye, your magic is just too cool! Teleportation, that’s instantaneous movement…and to teleport four times in a row is like having four flashes!”

“Squeak squeak!”

“It looks like this should be a dark element magic, considering how bloodthirsty you looked when casting the spell, let’s just call it…Bloodthirsty Flicker,” Russell had never seen such magic before, nor did he have any reference material for it.

So he simply named the Red-eyed Rat King’s magic with a fitting name.

Perhaps Bloodthirsty Flicker doesn’t add much to combat ability, but it undoubtedly is an excellent skill for escaping and saving one’s life.

Therefore, not only was Russell happy.

Tom, Jack, and the other four Knight Attendants, who had been surreptitiously eyeing the Red-eyed Rat King, were also secretly excited, as if the Red-eyed Rat King were already their contracted Fantasy Beast, imagining developing Bloodthirsty Flicker into even stronger magic.

Capable of a single flash to a place dozens or even hundreds of meters away.

Or being able to flicker dozens or even hundreds of times.

With such abilities, in combination with magic, they could develop too many tactics, greatly enhancing the potential of Phantom Beast Knights.

“Squeak squeak!” The Red-eyed Rat King lifted a pair of its front paws, making an eating gesture – it was hungry.

“Eat, you must eat your fill,” Russell quickly had a servant bring a meal to the Red-eyed Rat King.

Watching the Red-eyed Rat King wolf down the food, he couldn’t help but remark, “I guess you were really starved before, think about it, as a big rat living in the Grotto Village, even if you steal a lot, how much food can you really get?”

Speaking of that.

He gently stroked the now smooth fur of the Red-eyed Rat King and sighed. “I wonder how you grew up, to actually have the opportunity to evolve.”

A rat from the Grotto Village, actually evolving into a Fantasy Beast.

The thought was quite inspiring.

Just then, the Red-eyed Rat King suddenly turned its head, squeaked at Russell, and then continued to gobble up the silkworm meal until there was nothing left.

“Squeak squeak.” It called out while walking outside.

After a few steps, it turned its head to look at Russell and squeaked twice more.

“Huh?” Russell was surprised. “Are you asking me to follow you? Where to, Red-eye, where are you going? You’re not going back to the Grotto Village, are you?”

Although puzzled, Russell’s footsteps were quick, and he promptly called on Kevin to follow behind the Red-eyed Rat King.

The Red-eyed Rat King was indeed leading Russell somewhere.

So man, mouse, and dog quickly left the estate, with the Red-eyed Rat King occasionally lifting its head to sniff and confirm the direction. They were not heading towards Grotto Village, but towards Sharp Knife Mountain, passing through Market Hamlet to reach the foot of Sharp Knife Mountain.

North of Market Hamlet, they would leave the boundary of Wuyao Snake Manor.

Entering Baron Roman’s territory, the vineyard estate primarily focused on grape plantations, where endless rows of grapevines could be seen.

The Red-eyed Rat King didn’t approach these grapevines but walked along the mid-slope of Sharp Knife Mountain.

It occasionally had to enter burrows, but seeing Russell couldn’t follow, it had to come back out and make its way along the mountainside.

Starting and stopping.

They were nearly out of the vineyard estate’s boundary when finally, the Red-eyed Rat King stopped at a spot halfway up a hilltop, close to the snow line.
