00:00It's you.
00:05Why?
00:06What's it like to be a stepping stone for the main characters?
00:09I lived and raised three stray contract beasts,
00:12feeding them with my own mana springs and drops of life mana for years.
00:15But they treated me like dirt and rushed to fawn over the senior sister at the first sight.
00:20It wasn't until the system messages popped up before my eyes that I understood.
00:24They were cubs of ancient ferocious beasts.
00:26They stayed with me only to suck away my star luck.
00:30According to the original story, once my mana dried up and I died bleeding from seven orifices,
00:34they would transform into handsome, broad-shouldered male leads and live a sweet wildlife with the senior sister.
00:40So I reluctantly gave them up and sold those three traitorous beasts to the senior sister.
00:45But the last little golden retriever clung to my leg and refused to let go, nearly in tears.
00:50Leah, can you not abandon me this life?
00:52The day the demons invaded, I shielded the three contract beasts behind me with my life.
00:57A whole chunk of flesh was torn off my back.
01:00A hole was bitten through my shoulder.
01:02My chest was pierced by a corpse demon's claws.
01:05I held on until inner court apprentices came to reinforce us.
01:08I lay in a pool of blood, every breath like a knife cutting through my lungs.
01:12They squatted behind me, their fur spotless.
01:15Not a single drop of blood splashed on them.
01:17But words suddenly floated before my eyes.
01:20The system messages were going crazy.
01:22The cannon fodder is finally dying, she really thought she raised ordinary contract beasts?
01:27Laughable, those are ancient ferocious beasts.
01:30One sneeze from them could wipe out the whole demon horde.
01:33I slowly turned my head to stare at the three beasts I'd raised for ten years.
01:37The black snake's vertical pupils glanced at me coldly, then looked away.
01:41The red bird tilted its head, as if waiting for me to breathe my last.
01:44The little yellow dog yawned and buried its head in its paws.
01:48They watched me suffer with complete indifference.
01:51The messages kept scrolling.
01:52If they didn't need to suck her star luck to transform,
01:55the male leads would have gone to enjoy life with the heroine long ago.
01:58Once she's dead, the male leads can turn human.
02:01I want to see the handsome guys.
02:03I stared at those lines, my whole body turning cold as if I'd fallen into an ice cellar.
02:08Heroine?
02:09Male leads?
02:11Elena, the top senior sister, rushed over to help me up.
02:15Junior sister, are you okay?
02:17The moment she appeared, the sister messages went wild.
02:20Ah, so beautiful and strong.
02:22My destined wife.
02:24The cannon fodder is pretty, but she looks poor next to the heroine.
02:27The three contract beasts' eyes lit up.
02:30Ignoring my dying self, they scrambled into Elena's arms.
02:33The black snake coiled around Elena's wrist affectionately.
02:37The red bird fluttered onto her shoulder.
02:39The little yellow dog circled her feet, its tail wagging like a spinning top.
02:43I coughed up a mouthful of blood.
02:45Did I look like I was okay?
02:47After she helped me back to my room, Elena joked with me, for who knows how many times.
02:52Junior sister, your three contract beasts are so cute and well-behaved.
02:57Why not sell them to me?
02:58I'll pay any amount of magic crystals.
03:01This time, I stared at the three snuggling in her arms, paused for a moment, and said,
03:05Sure.
03:06A hundred top-tier magic crystals each.
03:09Take your pick.
03:11Elena and the three contract beasts all froze.
03:16For ten years, I'd spoiled those three contract beasts like they were royalty.
03:20The monthly allowance for an outer-court apprentice at Starfall Magic Academy was pitiful.
03:25So I worked my fingers to the bone-picking magic herbs and drawing magic scrolls to earn money.
03:29When I dragged myself home exhausted at midnight, they ignored me completely and pounced on the premium magic deer meat
03:36I brought back, eating their fill as if it was their birthright.
03:38I just watched them fondly. It turned out those three traitorous ferocious beasts were just waiting to drain my star
03:45luck.
03:45I clenched my fists so tight my nails dug into my palms, drawing blood, but I felt no pain.
03:50I'm done.
03:51If senior sister wanted to raise these contract breeds, I'd do you a favor.
03:55The moment I spoke, the system messages exploded.
03:59Didn't she treasure the male leads like her life?
04:01Will changing the plot cause trouble?
04:03This stupid cannon fodder is crazy for money.
04:06A hundred top-tier magic crystals?
04:09That's enough to buy half a small magic academy.
04:12Sure enough, a flash of joy crossed Elena's eyes.
04:15She was the darling of the entire Starfall Magic Academy.
04:18She could afford any price.
04:20I was joking, Leah.
04:22You treasure them more than anything.
04:24How could you bear to sell them?
04:25I sighed on purpose.
04:27Senior sister, as you can see, I can barely feed myself.
04:31I really can't afford to keep them anymore.
04:33Elena could barely hide the smile tugging at her lips.
04:37All right, but I can't pay that much all at once.
04:40I'll take one home today.
04:42The three little beasts understood.
04:44They huddled close to the senior sister, their jewel-like animal eyes staring at her eagerly.
04:49The black snake, with its shiny black scales, dropped its usual coldness and curled up in her arms,
04:54pressing its head into her palm and refusing to move.
04:57She picked it immediately.
04:59I watched it fawn over her and almost laughed.
05:01Elena had no idea.
05:03The day I found the black snake, it was pinned under a rock in the mud.
05:07I moved the rock and saved it.
05:09Coiled around my hand like it was clutching a lifeline.
05:12But after that, I ran a high fever for three days.
05:15I'd been sick ever since, plagued by minor illnesses.
05:18The outer court professors called me untalented.
05:21I thought it was just my natural weakness.
05:24No wonder when I saw the system messages.
05:26This black snake's true form is actually the legendary Calamity Ferocious Beast, the Abyss Hydra.
05:35The second they left the mountain, even my wounds hurt less.
05:38I got out of bed quickly.
05:40Without a word, I activated a water magic scroll first.
05:43A thin stream of water tied up the red bird and shoved it into a cage.
05:46The yellow dog widened its blue-green animal eyes.
05:49After staring into mine, it seemed to zone out for a second.
05:52I easily stuffed the whimpering dog into its cage too.
05:55The red bird slammed against the cage frantically, screeching sharply.
05:58The system messages cursed me wildly.
06:01Stupid cannon fodder.
06:02How dare you treat the male leaves like this?
06:04Turning on them so fast.
06:06Vicious woman.
06:07I ignored them.
06:08I picked up scissors, cut off the pet tags hanging around their necks.
06:11The cages went silent instantly.
06:13The wooden tags carved with my name Leah.
06:15I'd begged them for ages to wear them.
06:17Now I walked to the cliff and threw the tags as far as I could.
06:20What contract beasts?
06:22They were traitorous, ferocious beasts.
06:24I took the huge sum of money and rushed straight to the magic apothecary to find the best healing
06:28mage.
06:29A grand archmage poured powerful wood element mana into me.
06:32My external wounds healed quickly, but when he used mana to examine me, he frowned.
06:36Been to the poison mist abyss?
06:38I nodded.
06:39A few months ago, I risked my life to go to the poison mist abyss to pick revival magic
06:43incense to ease their pain.
06:45You're too late.
06:46The poison in your body has almost reached your mana veins.
06:50The smile froze on my face.
06:52I was so stupid.
06:53My whole life had been pitifully foolish.
06:56I can cure this poison, but the most important ingredient, moonlight magic grass, only grows
07:02in magic secret realms.
07:03It costs 200 top tier magic crystals.
07:06There's also a risk of failure.
07:08But when I heard that, the smile returned to my face.
07:11No problem.
07:12I'll pay the fee in a week.
07:13Selling two more traitorous beasts was all I needed to change my cannon fodder fate.
07:18The old mage looked me up and down and comforted me.
07:20Your star luck is profound, far beyond ordinary people.
07:24It will bless you and those around you.
07:26He paused.
07:27But that's not always a good thing.
07:32People close to you might have bad intentions.
07:35Be careful.
07:36I wondered how much star luck Elena had to feed those three traitorous ferocious beasts.
07:40As soon as I returned to home, I was told to attend the contract ceremony tomorrow.
07:44It seemed Elena had realized the black snake was an extremely rare contract beast the second
07:48she got home.
07:49She was probably afraid I'd back out and rush to bind with it to share mana.
07:52As a useless outer court apprentice, I'd never been invited to such a grand event.
07:56But the senior who delivered the message spoke with a sneer.
07:59Junior sister, the wand professor called your name specifically.
08:03He said Elena is going to contract her beast publicly and wants you to witness it.
08:06I pretended to be clueless and nodded.
08:09Sure enough, Elena came to me again that night, eager to buy another beast, but hesitated to say why.
08:14I agreed at once, but this time the yellow dog acted strange.
08:18It hid in its cage and refused to come out.
08:20The red bird, however, vied for favor, spreading its feathers and singing.
08:24It even offered Elena a few of its treasured magic fruits.
08:27Elena took the red bird away.
08:29I sneered inwardly.
08:30I'd found the young bird learning to fly that cold winter.
08:33It was no bigger than my palm, with sparse feathers and frozen stiff.
08:36Elena only knew its wings blazed like fire.
08:39She had no idea that food and herbs always rotted quickly around it.
08:43The mountain I lived on was barren, probably because of it.
08:46Warm, traitorous, ferocious beasts turned into cold top-tier magic crystals.
08:50I counted the money and grinned.
08:51A cool, tingling sensation spread through my mana veins.
08:54I stretched and felt lighter than ever.
08:56The blazing sky sparrow is a fire element beast.
08:59Now that it's no longer draining your star luck, the fire poison in your body is gone.
09:04Who's there?
09:05I spun around alert.
09:07Am I next to be sold?
09:08Inside the shabby wooden hut, the dog cage was wide open.
09:12A handsome blonde blue-eyed young man lay on my bed.
09:14A pair of dragon horns sprouted from his head and a fluffy dog tail wagged behind him.
09:19He looked so rich.
09:20Wait, my heart sank.
09:21This was inside Starfall Magic Academy's protective formation.
09:25Who was he?
09:25The system messages above my head went crazy in an instant.
09:29Why did the puppy transform first?
09:31So handsome.
09:32Plot is broken.
09:33Why did he transform with the cannon fodder?
09:35My eyes widened as I blurted out in disbelief.
09:38Your little wello?
09:39He closed his eyes proudly.
09:41My name's is Auric, the ancient golden radiant house.
09:45I held up my magic mirror and snapped a photo of him.
09:48I'm sending this to the senior sister to ask if I can double the price.
09:51The senior sister is the pretty mage from earlier.
09:54Auric stepped forward and grabbed my wrist.
09:57His voice was low and the mana pressure was suffocating, not understanding a word.
10:01Did you get reborn too?
10:02I frowned.
10:03Had this dog lost its mind?
10:05But his eyes turned red.
10:06I choose you this life.
10:07And all his calmness vanished.
10:08We can form a magic contract.
10:10The system messages cursed me for being unworthy.
10:13I flew into a rage.
10:14Remembering how he'd been tied by the road and burned with fire sticks when I found him.
10:18I cried for him.
10:19I smiled and pressed my forehead to his.
10:21Really?
10:22But I didn't choose you.
10:24Auric froze.
10:25His fluffy tail drooped at once.
10:26And he didn't know where to put his hands.
10:28Leah villain.
10:29His voice trembled.
10:30I'm not like them.
10:32Can you not sell me?
10:33I broke out in a cold sweat.
10:35I had never told them my full name.
10:36Not even Elena only called me Leah.
10:38No.
10:39I need money to cure my illness.
10:41So I have to sell you.
10:42I'm a gold swallowing beast.
10:44I can gather wealth for you.
10:45I can earn as much money as you want.
10:49Still no.
10:50You're not loyal.
10:51And I don't raise backstabbing contract beasts.
10:54He let go of my hand, his face dark with rage.
10:56I thought he would attack me.
10:57So I gripped my magic scroll tightly, ready to fight to the death.
11:00But Auric lifted his golden robe and knelt obediently in front of me, bowing humbly.
11:04I was wrong before, but I swear I will never drain your star luck again.
11:10Please, give me a chance to prove myself.
11:13He lifted his face.
11:14You are the one bound to me by fate.
11:16His emerald eyes glowing softly.
11:17I will never leave until I repay my debt, even if it cost my life.
11:21The system messages were ready to shoot me full of arrows.
11:24I pretended to agree, planning to take him to the contract ceremony tomorrow.
11:28Elena would definitely take him.
11:30Before bed, he tried to climb into his old doghouse in his human body, which was ridiculous.
11:34I had to lay a blanket for him, and he curled up to sleep, well behaved.
11:38The next morning, Auric was gone.
11:40I looked around the empty hut and gritted my teeth.
11:42My 100 top tier magic crystals were gone.
11:45The door crashed open.
11:46He was covered in mud, holding a pile of treasures and throwing them on the ground.
11:50I looked down and my pupil shrank.
11:52A nine-leaf radiant immortal grass with intact roots and golden veins,
11:55worth at least 500 top tier magic crystals.
11:58Next to it was a phoenix blood gem, bright red with flowing light inside.
12:01Where did you get these?
12:03My voice shook.
12:04Pick them up under the cliff.
12:06I'm a golden radiant hound.
12:08Gathering wealth is my instinct.
12:10He tightly clutched a wooden tag, the one I'd thrown out the window yesterday.
12:14His voice was hoarse.
12:15I want to atone.
12:16In my past life, I trammed and followed Elena, fought for her and shielded her from disasters.
12:21But when she ascended the god realm, she pushed me to take law lane triple and ice this.
12:24My eyes widened.
12:26The system messages called me a villainous, saying the heroine would never do such a thing.
12:30I was blind to let you die.
12:32This life, I gave up thousand years of mana to transform early.
12:36I must repay you for two lives.
12:38I fell silent for a moment, then waved him over.
12:41If you lose it again, pick it up yourself.
12:43He stuffed the wooden tag into my hand and I tied it back around his neck.
12:46He hung his head and his wildly wagging tail gave away his joy.
12:50Oryk asked me carefully if I wanted to form a contract.
12:53He bit his fingertip and dropped blood onto the contract scroll and I did the same.
12:56The two drops of blood merged, and the scroll turned into two golden lights that sank into our foreheads.
13:02In an instant, a vast and warm power surged through my veins.
13:05I broke through level 7 Magic Apprentice, the rank I'd been stuck in for three years.
13:09The contract ceremony was held at the peak of Starfall Peak, with rolling clouds and silver-winged sacred herons circling.
13:15And Elena stood on the high platform in a sky-blue dress, adored by everyone, with the black snake and
13:20red bird beside her.
13:21Oryk followed behind me, blonde and emerald-eyed, walking calmly.
13:25His handsome face was striking.
13:27He stared only at my back, as if I were the only person in the world.
13:30We stood out like a sore thumb in the crowd.
13:33The moment Elena saw Oryk, her smile froze.
13:35She wanted to snatch him right away.
13:37The professor cleared his throat.
13:39Everyone, these two contract breeds were obtained by your chief senior sister by chance.
13:44She will form a contract with them today.
13:46Thunderous applause erupted from the crowd.
13:48Elena bit her fingertip and dropped blood onto the black snake and red bird's foreheads.
13:52The contract was formed with a flash of spiritual light.
13:55Her star luck is pouring out like a sandbag with a hole in it.
13:59The two ferocious beasts devoured it greedily, their eyes growing brighter.
14:03But she had no idea and kissed the red bird's feathers.
14:05Cheers flooded over.
14:07Congratulations, chief senior sister!
14:09Elena stepped down eagerly and reached out to touch Oryk's head.
14:12Junior sister, who is this?
14:14She pretended to be clueless.
14:16Oryk suddenly looked up.
14:17His emerald eyes shrinking.
14:18A sharp mana pressure crashed down like a collapsing mountain.
14:21And he let out a low warning from his throat.
14:23Get lost.
14:25Elena froze in place.
14:26Her gentle mask shattered into pieces.
14:28As if she had been slapped in public.
14:30She had never suffered such humiliation.
14:32Her face turning pale and red.
14:33Professor Wand led a group of inner court apprentices over.
14:36A powerful contract piece like this will turn on you sooner or later.
14:41Hand him over to Elena for the sake of the academy.
14:44Professor, the inner court is not a trash dump.
14:48She obviously stole the chief senior sister's contract piece.
14:51I brushed my finger over my forehead.
14:54Professor, Oryk and I have already formed a contract.
14:57He has recognized me as his master and refuses to leave.
15:01Oryk shot me a resentful look.
15:02His ears turning bright red.
15:03The crowd gasped, staring at us with envy.
15:06Elena was filled with regret.
15:07Why hadn't she bought the strongest yellow dog?
15:10A contract formed his divine will.
15:12Best of luck, junior sister.
15:14If you can't control him one day, you can hand him over to me.
15:17Crowd admired her generosity even more.
15:20I sneered inwardly.
15:21After the ceremony, the professor made things difficult for me, assigning me all kinds of dirty and tiring work.
15:26Patrolling hundreds of peaks around Starfall Peak every day.
15:29Luckily, Oryk was extremely capable.
15:32He fetched all the unclaimed treasures on Starfall Peak for me.
15:35Even digging up the dragon saliva pearl buried by the headmaster.
15:38The headmaster buried this.
15:39I'll find another one to put back when he wakes up.
15:42I put it in my pocket and took it to Wambul Magic Tower.
15:45The golden core mage's jaw almost dropped.
15:47It was formed once every thousand years and could restore sight to the blind.
15:51It was sold in less than a day at the auction to the headmaster of the tamer Magic Academy, who
15:55used it to cure his only son.
15:57The white-haired old man thanked me personally.
15:59The angrier the system messages cursed, the more carefree we lived in the back mountains.
16:04Oryk had earned me ten times more money than I would have gotten for selling him.
16:07Over a thousand top-tier magic crystals.
16:10I also found an unoccupied small magic secret realm and registered it first with a sound transmission magic mirror.
16:15The entire inner court of Starfall Academy heard about it.
16:18Elena blocked my door several times, with dark circles under her eyes and a haggard look,
16:23trying to buy heavenly materials at a high price to feed her snake and bird.
16:26I refused every time.
16:28I didn't need money anymore.
16:29On the day of the poison removal, the old mage was already waiting.
16:33When he saw Oryk behind me, he only nodded in surprise and said nothing.
16:36I fell asleep on the jade bed and dreamed of my tragic death in my past life.
16:41Will we still suck her star luck after she dies?
16:44It's your fault for leading her to the Poison Mist Abyss.
16:46How was I supposed to know this stupid woman would actually go?
16:49I opened my eyes and saw Oryk's worried emerald eyes, red and fixed on me.
16:53All the poison in your body has been eliminated.
16:56Your mana cultivation speed is genius level in the entire magical realm.
17:00I smiled in relief.
17:02My fate had changed.
17:03That day, Oryk and I went to the Kingdom Grand Hotel to pack two top-tier magic energy feasts and
17:08return to the hut,
17:09only to find the senior sister and a group of professors waiting outside with dark expressions.
17:13Leah, you found the secret realm treasures alone and didn't notify the academy.
17:17Do you even care about the academy that raised you?
17:19This is the rule of the entire magical realm.
17:22How am I ungrateful?
17:24Do I have to disrespect elders like you, who are half-dead and haven't ascended to the god Dem, to
17:30be considered kind?
17:31Oryk snickered.
17:32Professor Wan turned red with rage.
17:34You're insolence!
17:35Junior sister, the magic fields on Starfall Peak are failing.
17:39Hand over the heavenly materials, and everyone will thank you.
17:43Several inner court apprentices behind her released their mana pressure, making my throat taste like blood.
17:48In the next second, Oryk stood in front of me, the domineering mana of an ancient beast blocking all attacks.
17:53I wiped the blood from my lip and sneered, deliberately raising my voice with a scroll to amplify it.
17:58Inner court apprentices are robbing people!
18:01They cared about their reputation and left in disgrace after my outburst.
18:04A few months later, the neighboring Mirror Image Magic Academy found a secret realm and recruited teams.
18:09Only primary mages and above could sign up.
18:11I went, and Oryk hid his aura after transforming.
18:14Everyone thought I'd brought a handsome follower.
18:16On the day of departure, young mages from all academies gathered.
18:20I saw Elena at the secret realm gate.
18:22She had the black snake and red bird with her, followed by a group of inner court seniors and sisters.
18:27Her entourage was huge, as if she was going to destroy a sect.
18:30But she looked terrible, dark circles under her eyes, pale lips, gasping after two steps, as if half her life
18:35had been sucked out.
18:36The seniors and sisters behind her were also exhausted and weak.
18:40Senior sister, are you alright?
18:43She forced a smile.
18:44I'm fine. Just tired from mana cultivation.
18:47As soon as she spoke, the black snake coiled around her arm and the red bird pecked her hair.
18:51She staggered and almost fell.
18:53I almost laughed out loud.
18:55Mana cultivation?
18:56She'd been drained dry.
18:57Oryk stood beside me.
18:58He looked down at me with excitement.
19:00Master, can I teach that snake and bird a lesson in the secret realm?
19:03I smiled.
19:05We'll see.
19:06In the seeing-off crowd, Professor Wan sat in a wheelchair with both legs and thick splints.
19:11He'd fallen down the 10th floor of the library with Elena and couldn't walk to this day.
19:15After entering the secret realm, I took Oryk and took the small path on the left.
19:19Under the gravel was solid soil, and a flat trail was hidden under the weeds.
19:23In less than half an hour, we reached a wide valley full of magic herbs,
19:27with a tinkling mana spring and magic fruits hanging on the branches.
19:30The mages from Wendy Magic Academy caught up.
19:32How did you walk so fast?
19:34We followed Elena and got stuck in mud and were stung by poison bees.
19:39We took the small path on the left.
19:41They regretted it and begged to follow us.
19:43We rested in the valley and grilled fish when a scream came from far away.
19:47Soon, several muddy mages ran over, terrified.
19:50Something happened to Starfall Academy.
19:52Senior Sister Elena was dragged into the black water pool by a 100-year three-head python.
19:56Please save her!
19:57The Wendy Academy mages crossed their arms indifferently.
20:00She led us astray.
20:01Why should we save her?
20:02Not worth it.
20:03But I turned to Oryk.
20:05Can you beat it?
20:05Oryk put down the grilled fish reluctantly.
20:08I can fight.
20:09If I can't win, we'll run.
20:10I can definitely escape.
20:12I stood up and brushed the dust off my clothes.
20:14Wait here.
20:15I'll go check.
20:16Hello, mage it?
20:17Alone?
20:18It's fine.
20:19I'll let my dog loose.
20:20The black water pool was deep in the secret realm, full of mud and stinky rotten waterweed.
20:24When I arrived, torn robes, scattered magic tools, and pools of horrifying blood covered
20:29the shore.
20:29The Starfall Academy mages were in chaos, and all the solo mages had fled.
20:34Elena was not on the shore.
20:36Master.
20:36Oryk stood by the pool.
20:37The great demon is down there.
20:39It has eaten many people, and its mana is rising.
20:44Stay far away.
20:45I stepped back ten feet.
20:46Oryk glanced back at me, smiled slightly, and jumped into the pool.
20:49Golden light surged up from the bottom, like a sun exploding underwater.
20:53The waves crashed, and a huge tentacle flew out, snapped in two, and splattered stinky
20:58mud.
20:58Oryk walked out of the water.
21:00His golden hair stuck to his face, his emerald eyes cold as ice.
21:03He held a huge demon head in his hand, still dripping blood.
21:06He looked like he was begging for a pat on the head.
21:08He smiled.
21:09Master.
21:10Done.
21:10I patted his hair, and he nuzzled my palm affectionately.
21:13Elena was tangled in water ghost grass at the bottom of the pool.
21:17The black snake bit her collar and dragged her up desperately.
21:19And the red bird hooked its claws into her hair.
21:22I leaned halfway over the water to grab her, but the black snake suddenly coiled around
21:26my wrist.
21:26And the red bird grabbed my sleeve.
21:28A hot flow burst from my mana core and rushed into their bodies.
21:31The black snake's scales exploded with golden light, and the red bird's feathers burst into
21:36red flames.
21:36The light was too bright for me to open my eyes.
21:39When the light faded, I was holding a cold, slender hand instead of a snake.
21:42A black-robed young man knelt in front of me with black hair, scarlet pupils, and a cold
21:46face.
21:47He gripped my hand with one hand and held the unconscious Elena with the other.
21:50A red-robed young man squatted at my feet, with fiery long hair, red gold pupils, and
21:55a charming face.
21:56Oryk appeared beside me silently, pulled me behind him.
21:59Stay away from her.
22:00Elena slowly opened her eyes, and the mages on the shore erupted in chaos.
22:05Chief Senior Sister, your contract beasts have transformed.
22:07Loyal to their master, breaking through in danger, so touching.
22:11She held the snake and bird's hands, her eyes red with joy.
22:15Young friend.
22:15A hand patted my shoulder.
22:17I saw your golden radiant hound.
22:19He stroked his beard.
22:20Starfall Academy doesn't know treasure.
22:23The Tamer Academy welcomes you anytime.
22:25No test.
22:26Direct entry to the inner core.
22:27He handed me a crystal token.
22:29I turned and crashed into Oryk's arms.
22:31Master.
22:31He grabbed my wrist.
22:32You were drained.
22:33His expression serious.
22:34They took your star luck to break through the transformation barrier.
22:37Will you form a soul symbiosis and contract me?
22:40Then they can never touch your star luck again.
22:42A soul symbiosis contract meant sharing lifespan.
22:45He wanted to give me his lifespan.
22:47Are you sure?
22:48I asked.
22:48He pulled me to a quiet corner, his expression serious.
22:51I decided this the day I was reborn.
22:53He blocked out the world, bit his index finger, and a drop of golden blood oozed out.
22:57He drew a magic array on my palm with his essence blood, curved like a curled golden radiant
23:02hound, then pressed his palm to mine, fingers interlocked.
23:05Blood merged with blood, and mana flowed gently into me, not rough.
23:09I, Oryk, of the golden radiant hound clan, swear to form a soul symbiosis and contract
23:14with Leah.
23:15Never abandon, never betray.
23:17Golden light burst from our clasped hands, and a small golden mark appeared on my heart.
23:21You can't get rid of me now.
23:22After returning from the secret realm, I broke through three levels in half a month and
23:26touched the threshold of intermediate mage.
23:28One evening, I was meditating in the back mountains when I heard an argument from the
23:32woods.
23:32My mana hasn't improved at all in half a month and it's falling.
23:36Are you draining my mana?
23:37She had dark circles under her eyes, sunken cheeks, and looked five or six years older,
23:42her skin dull and dry.
23:43The black snake lowered his head.
23:45Master, we aren't.
23:47Master, you can ask someone to check if you don't believe us.
23:50Leah?
23:51She was a magic apprentice, and now she's almost an intermediate mage.
23:55You said golden radiant hounds drain mana.
23:57The red bird suddenly turned his head and looked at me.
24:00Elena saw me when she followed his gaze.
24:02Her face turned red, tears filling her eyes, and she ran away without saying a word.
24:07Thunder boomed in the distance.
24:09Oryx smiled slyly.
24:10They're going through the tribulation.
24:12Master, let's find a better spot to eat popcorn.
24:15At the peak of Starfall Peak, thunderclouds pressed down and lightning snaked.
24:19Necron turned into a half-human, half-snake form, covered in burns, roaring to shield Elena
24:24from the thunder.
24:25Lauren's wings were charred and red-gold blood spilled everywhere.
24:28Elena was surrounded by professors, her clothes torn, hair messy, spitting blood constantly,
24:34crying hysterically.
24:35No mages dared to approach, even grand archmages avoided the tribulation.
24:39The snake and bird endured the thunder all night.
24:42Necron couldn't hold on anymore.
24:43His scarlet pupil's horse.
24:45Poison mist abyss.
24:46Revival grass.
24:47Who can fetch the revival grass?
24:50Just one revival grass.
24:52Who will go?
24:54I, Lauren, owe you a life.
24:56No one answered.
24:57Poison mist abyss was filled with poisonous fog all year round.
25:00Auric and I sat on Starfall Peak eating popcorn, the wind carrying the smell of thunderclouds.
25:05Several people flew over on broomsticks.
25:08They were from Stellar Dome Magic Academy, the top academy in the magical realm.
25:12They sensed the surging star luck, and Professor Walter led them to Elena.
25:16But as soon as they arrived, they saw the injured snake and bird fighting each other,
25:19knocking Elena into a pit.
25:21This is your strongest direct disciple?
25:22I heard she was powerful.
25:24This is a joke.
25:25That mountain is where the star luck is.
25:27Impossible!
25:28She's a nobody, an outer court apprentice who couldn't break through for three years.
25:31She's not worth your time.
25:33A magic apprentice?
25:34Then why are there two Inriate Maid eras on her mountain?
25:36The mana there is so thick it's almost condensed into fog.
25:39A golden light flashed across the sky, and Auric and I landed on the mountain before they arrived.
25:43To be honest, my mountain was shabby.
25:45Only the most excluded outer court apprentices were assigned here.
25:49Professor Walter's gaze fell on me, and he froze.
25:52You're...
25:52Leah?
25:53Then his pupils shrank sharply.
25:55You...
25:56Primary Mazdur Great Perfection?
25:58Almost Intermediate Mazdur?
26:00Yes.
26:01I smiled and bowed.
26:02Wonderful.
26:03I've never met such a promising young person.
26:05I'll take you as my direct disciple.
26:08From today on, you are my direct disciple.
26:10If anyone bullies you, use my name.
26:12Professor Wan's face turned dark, but he didn't dare say a word.
26:15The old man who always napped in the library was the acting headmaster,
26:18the most powerful person in the academy.
26:20This mountain is too desolate.
26:22Do you want to move to a manor-rich peak?
26:24I smiled and shook my head.
26:26No, I like it here.
26:27Auric nodded behind me.
26:29This was the place where I had spent ten years with him.
26:32The next day, two unexpected visitors came to the hut.
26:35Necron held a basket of magic fruits, and Lauren clutched a jar of hundred-flower wine,
26:39their expression stiff as if a knife was held to their throats.
26:42Leah?
26:43We were wrong before.
26:45We came to apologize.
26:47When I survived the tribulation, I felt warmth from you.
26:50Necron's eyes were bloodshot.
26:52I remembered how you risked your life to pick revival magic incense for us.
26:56I'm sorry, I regret it.
26:58I can be your servant.
27:00Please forgive us.
27:01I smiled.
27:02You still want to drain my star luck?
27:03Too late.
27:04Orkin and I have formed a soul symbioling contract.
27:07If you want to drain my star luck, you have to get through him first.
27:10The snake and bird froze.
27:12Are you crazy?
27:13Soul symbiolosis contract?
27:15You live as long as she lives.
27:17You die when she dies.
27:18What's so good about a useless mage that you'd bet your life?
27:21Star luck?
27:22Mana?
27:23Or her face?
27:24Auric stepped toward him, his mana surging with each step.
27:26She saved me and raised me, and now she is my master.
27:30If you dare to lay a hand on her again, I won't mind sending you through another tribulation.
27:36Golden light exploded, and the aura of the golden radiant hound crashed down like a collapsing mountain, forcing the snake
27:42and bird to their knees.
27:43Loren trembled all over, and Necron stared at the ground, his nails digging into the dirt.
27:48Get out.
27:49The snake and bird scrambled to their feet and fled in a panic.
27:52I leaned against the doorframe, watching their miserable figures disappear into the woods.
27:57Belated love is worth less than grass.
27:59It turned out that Chaos Kos, sealed in the shadow cave a hundred years ago, had loosened the seal and
28:04was hitting it day and night.
28:06Elena insisted on leading people to repair the seal formation, but she spat out a mouthful of black blood halfway
28:11through and was carried back.
28:12Senior sister told me that there was a problem with those two contract feasts, and that she regretted it and
28:17apologized to me.
28:18I shook my head.
28:18It's okay.
28:19Why know everything?
28:21Don't cry.
28:22Crying won't solve the problem.
28:23Senior sister, let's atone for our sins.
28:25The next day, I took the senior sister's jade token and rushed to the shadow cave to check the seal
28:30formation.
28:31Now the seal was covered with cracks, oozing black gas.
28:34Master, let's hide.
28:35Leave Stardust Magic Academy and go to a place where no one knows you.
28:38You have money, mana, and me.
28:40You can live a good life anywhere.
28:41They are unkind, but I can't be unjust.
28:44Professor Walter is here.
28:46He took me as his disciple, and I can't leave him behind.
28:49I smiled brightly.
28:50Auric froze, then smiled and squeezed my hand.
28:53Okay, then we won't leave.
28:55I'll stay with you.
28:56I didn't sleep well that night.
28:58I woke up the moment.
28:59The hottest defense.
29:01Formation was triggered.
29:02Dark figure flashed past the window, and when I got up to check, a few black snake scales lay on
29:07the ground, with blood oozing from the broken edges.
29:09My heart sank.
29:10I chased after the aura.
29:12Auric was fighting the snake and bird, one against two, holding his own.
29:15But they fought and retreated, leading Auric toward the shadow cave step by step.
29:19My heart skipped a beat.
29:20They were luring him to break the seal.
29:22I immediately sent a message to Elena and the elders.
29:25But the snake and bird stopped at the same time, turned their heads, and stared at me with four eyes.
29:29Lauren's red-gold eyes were filled with madness.
29:32She is the key.
29:33If she dies, the fate is broken, and we can truly break through!
29:37With that, the two figures pounced at me.
29:39Auric couldn't block it in time, and I couldn't dodge it either.
29:42At that moment, I shouted,
29:43Auric, don't come here!
29:44Then I turned sideways, revealing Elena behind me.
29:47Elena stepped forward and spread her arms, shielding me tightly behind her.
29:51Necron's claws pierced her shoulder blade, and Lauren's red feathers nailed into her chest.
29:55Blood splattered all over my face.
29:57Elena groaned, and I immediately pressed the wound to stop the bleeding.
30:01Senior sister, hold on!
30:02The snake and bird froze.
30:03They had attacked their own master.
30:05In the next second, Golden Thunder fell, smashing straight into Necron and Lauren.
30:09Their screams were heartbreaking, punishment for killing their master.
30:13Soul annihilation!
30:14Auric rushed over and hugged me, trembling all over.
30:17Master, don't tell me not to come next time.
30:19Elena smiled, but her face changed drastically.
30:21Before turning to ashes, the black snake threw a silver light, destroying the restriction.
30:26Koss was about to be born, and the entire starfall peak was shaking.
30:29Professor Walter led people to repair the seal desperately, but the cracks grew bigger and bigger.
30:34I stood outside the shadow cave.
30:36Senior sister, protect me.
30:37I'm going to upgrade.
30:39You're only at primary mage at great perfection.
30:42There's no time.
30:43When I reach intermediate mage at, Auric can restore 60% of his mana.
30:47Protect her!
30:48Elena turned and shouted to everyone.
30:50Everyone sat cross-legged and released their mana together.
30:53Elena fed me the realm-breaking potion.
30:55The mana in my core boiled like water.
30:57The pain like my veins were breaking.
30:59My body trembled.
31:00I had reached intermediate mage.
31:01Golden light exploded, and the golden hound revealed its true form, roaring like thunder.
31:06Master, come up!
31:07I jumped on his back and rushed into the shadow cave.
31:10Faceless Koss coiled in the center, opening its golden red eyes.
31:14Charge!
31:14Auric turned into golden light and charged straight at Koss' heart.
31:18I jumped off his back, and my magic pierced through Koss' chest.
31:21Black blood gushed out and its huge body collapsed with a crash.
31:25Auric caught me and rushed out of the broken barrier.
31:28The sun rose.
31:29I lay in Auric's arms, covered in blood but alive.
31:32In the distance, Elena was supported by others, and many disciples ran toward me.
31:37I closed my eyes, tired I'll sleep first.
31:39When I woke up, my star luck was exhausted, and I became a jinxed person.
31:43My mana was still there, but my luck was gone.
31:45I choked when drinking water, and only I was bitten by mosquitoes when meditating.
31:50Elena took my hand.
31:51Leah, I want you to be the headmaster.
31:53I was so scared that I packed my bags overnight and fled down the mountain.
31:57Auric carried the luggage behind me.
31:59Master, where are we going?
32:02Down the mountain, to live freely.
32:04Auric had a sharp nose.
32:05He could smell treasures anywhere.
32:07I had bad luck, but Auric had good luck.
32:09News spread throughout the magical realm.
32:11A genius mage picking up treasures and donating all of them to the academy.
32:15In less than two years, Starfall Magic Academy became the wealthiest sect in the magical realm.
