Overlord Tamer: All My Pet Monsters Have God Potential-Chapter 133: The Gifts (2)
Chapter 133: The Gifts (2)
After Aren finished speaking, the Jadelight clan’s representative—Zomei Jadelight, spoke up, "Mr. Sirius. I wonder if you can provide us with some insight regarding this painting?"
Spiritveil Sect’s top executive followed up with a nod. "Indeed. Many have tried but to no avail."
Before anyone else could speak, John laughed and waved his hand.
"Of course, I can tell you about it." John smiled. Chuthulos had arrived and was telling him about the painting.
"This painting is rather interesting as it formed because of an explosion of a spirit phenomenon. Not naturally, of course."
Everyone was surprised.
"Explosion of a spirit phenomenon? How does that happen?" Loren Lokham blinked as he asked.
"For this particular painting to come to fruition, the explosion was done by interference from two powerful Monsters. If I had to speculate after observing this painting, then I suppose two powerful Monsters, likely at Legendary-rank or above, were fighting. Not in this world, of course. But both Monsters have a space-related attribute among their arsenal, and the spirit phenomenon happening in that particular special dimensional island resonated with those two, which could happen for a multitude of reasons, but mainly their space-time related attributes and their fight are the cause."
"You see those two hazy streams against each other? They are actually the two monsters frozen at their super-fast speed in the middle of a fight, and this painting is likely a pocket dimension formed with the disruption of the spirit phenomenon, trapping both monsters inside in stasis."
Everyone was shocked.
John chuckled and added. "It’s no wonder that nobody remembers anything and faints after getting a soul attack. It’s because of the two Monsters inside, whose souls are still alive and in passive protection mode. You can say that this painting is the exception to nature formed by nature since it is special and doesn’t get erased despite having Legendary-rank or above prowess."
"However, those two monsters won’t be able to escape as long as they are here. But the moment you send them away where the rank limit is higher, they would leave."
John smiled. "Now, you know the mystery of this painting."
"..."
Everyone was tongue-tied and shell-shocked as they looked at the painting.
"So this painting has no real value...it’s just two monsters trapped inside?" Loren Lockham muttered.
The people of the Dreamforged Guild internally winced and cursed him.
’Fuck. And we thought there was some mysterious phenomenon to be comprehended in the painting.’
’Dreamforged Guild fooled themselves this time while trying to score a point.’
"I wouldn’t say this is entirely useless for me," John said with a smile.
"Is it not?" Aren weakly smiled. "Well, even if it is not, the origin of this painting is not what we expected. We may have made a fool of ourselves by selecting a gift that even we couldn’t understand."
"As I said, it’s the thoughts regarding the gift that count. Since you felt I was worthy of it, I shall graciously accept it unless you want to send it to your parent organization in a higher rank limit world. But I am ninety-nine percent sure that the moment this painting goes through the portal or whatever means you have to send things away, they would escape. Sending it past the physical layer of this world will allow them to escape as well, quite easily."
"Oh, is it because of their space-related powers?" Duraian family’s representative, a burly black-haired man, asked.
"Indeed. As you have no one here capable of sealing this painting, and the current natural seal will vanish the moment it goes through the portal, the two Monsters will escape with teleport," John said with a nod.
Aren sat down with a sigh. "Mr. Sirius. Please accept this painting. We no longer have hope that you would choose us as your first customer, but only you can give value to this painting now."
’This bastard is still trying to score pity points.’
’Let him play.’
’It looks like you are confident in your gift, old fox.’
"Then I shall graciously accept it," John said with a smile. But internally, he was screaming with joy.
[Azelis: What a windfall.]
[Jibril: We are fooling them hard...]
[Azelis: Meh, it’s not exactly fooling them hard since they failed to make use of this painting, John can make use of it for his progress of Space mastery.]
[Jibril: Hehe, I like it.]
Aside from the two monsters in the painting, there were also resources and treasures in the painting that resulted from the explosion of the phenomenon! And John could take them out in his Monster Paradise!
"Here, Mr. Sirius." Aren gave the storage ring containing the painting to John. "Our Dreamforged Guild has an executive who has a Soul Talent of producing very beautiful and comfortable spirit fabric using energies of various attributes from spirit crystals. We have made some clothes for you, and they are inside the ring for you to dress in if you find them to your liking."
"Hoho, the clothes already sound like a better gift to me," John said with a laugh. "As you can see, I wear rather aesthetic outfits focusing on both comfort and looks."
Aren smiled and nodded. "Yes, we noticed, hence we decided to weave to the best of our ability."
John put the ring inside Monster Paradise.
[ Chuthulos: Alright, I’ll start unraveling the painting safely on the second island. ]
’Thanks, brother Chuthulos.’
"Now, let us roll the dice again." John waved his hand as the dice vanished and appeared in his hand with a simple object transport using his Space Mastery.
The dice rolled, and it was the Skyban Sect’s turn to show the gift.
Executive Majah, the representative of the Skyban Sect, waved his hand as something appeared in the center of the table.
"What?!"
"You are giving this as a gift?!"
It was a lifelong treasure of the Skyban Sect, shocking everyone at the table.
"Mr. Sirius. This may not be the most useful gift for you, but this stone tablet is the reason for our rise and our sect’s name. This stone tablet of unknown origin was found long ago by the founder of the Skyban Sect, and left it here before ascending."
John blinked. "Interesting Soul Technique."
"So you already saw through it?" Majah wryly smiled. "Indeed. But this tablet always gives a different type of Soul Technique to Tamers, and its rank varies. But the soul technique is always of flying-type, and dare I say we have the most superior flying Soul Techniques throughout both continents."
"You want to give flight to someone who can teleport?" Stormjade Pavilion’s representative speechlessly asked.
"My friend Yenlo, I didn’t say this was the gift we prepared," Majah said as he looked at Yenlo with a sly smile. "Moreover, we all know that the flight-type soul techniques are not used for flying only. The flight-type soul technique I have is quite offensive as well if you haven’t forgotten."
Turning back to John, he continued. "Mr. Sirius, this stone tablet gives the knowledge of a flight-type soul technique to individuals, and it is always related to their attributes. This is not a gift, but just a token of our goodwill. Please put your palm on it and get the soul technique. I shall present you with our gift after that."
John heartily laughed and nodded. "Fine. I am a curious person, so I would like to know what I get from it."
The stone tablet floated before John as Majah controlled it. "I would like to inform you that once it sends something akin to a seed inside your soul space, it will take 24 hours to transform into a scripture of a soul technique."
[ Azelis: Getting freebies left and right...]
[ Jibril: I didn’t know there was such a treasure. It’s so cool. ]
[ Azelis: There are many weird things birthed by spirit phenomena in special dimensional islands, but some of them are indeed very useful, like that stone tablet.]
Meanwhile, John received the bead in his soul space after he put his palm on the tablet.
Afterward, the stone tablet was locked by multi-layered sealing formations before the Majah put it away and took out the actual gift.
"After putting much thought into your requirement of a sincere heart and sincere efforts, we decided to gift you with this mystical plant called Aurelum Rain Tree."
Everyone was surprised, but seeing the size of the tree, they were confused. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"The original Aurelum Rain Tree was found in a special dimensional island, and it has been a staple resource of our sect alongside the stone tablet, as meditating under this tree provides better focus and results."
Majah smiled and continued. "This plant you see here is the result of our six decades of efforts to grow another Aurelum Rain Tree from the first one, which we finally succeeded in two years ago. Its growth is a bit slow, but once grown fully after three more years with sufficient spirit energy nurturing according to our estimation, I am sure it will benefit you greatly."
John raised his eyebrows. "The tree looks wonderful and is indeed mystical."
Majah and other people of the Skyban Sect were overjoyed at his reaction.
"Alright, I have seen the gift. Now moving on to the next one," John said with a smile as the dice returned to his hand.
Majah nodded and put away the spirit container holding the plant.
The dice rolled over and decided it was the Lockham family’s turn.
Loren Lockham stood up with a smile, looking at John with a modest expression.
"Mr. Sirius. Our gift is as humble as it is sincere. Here, we present you with the gem of our family."
"My supremely talented and lovely daughter, Miriel."
Everyone had varied but similar reactions.
’Shameless asshole!’
John almost spat out the tea he had just sipped.
"Cough...what?" John blinked as he looked at the dark-red-haired girl with a heavenly figure and bright blue eyes.
The girl smiled at him and entered the pavilion.
"Mr. Sirius. Despite what my father said, it was my idea. I may not even be worthy enough for you, but I am fine being a second, third, or even least important partner of yours as long as I get to adore you." A blush appeared on her cheeks as she added. "My heart was captured by you in the auction already."
John looked at Loren, who weakly smiled and said, "Naturally, I didn’t want to do this, but I am weak to my daughter’s wishes, and there’s nothing more sincere and effortful in my life than my daughter."
"As much as it pains me to part with her, I know that you are of a kind and gentle soul, given how you spoil your pets and love them. You don’t calculate when it comes to loving your pets, as we have seen an example of it in the auction already, so I am sure that my daughter will be happy with you forever."
The girl gracefully bowed after Loren finished speaking and said, "Of course. I do not think I am worthy of you. But if you accept me, I can only say I am the most fortunate person in the whole world."
