My Own Path: The Red Phoenix
Ch 52 – Syryu
“What is it?” Claude saw a white Wild Beast shaped like a cat lying on the lip of the lake.
Claude walked up to the Wild Beast “Ah turned out to be an ordinary Moon Fox” Claude heard the soft breath of the Moon Fox, then Claude looked at the body of the Moon Fox and saw that there was a considerable wound extending from the side of his abdomen to his feet.
“It looks like another Wild Beast scratch” Claude muttered softly.
Sensing someone was watching him, Moon Fox tried her hardest to turn to look at Claude with a compassionate look as if hinting for help.
“You asked me for help?” Claude also did not understand why he could assume that.
Then he saw the Moon Fox blink her eyes several times as if answering Claude's question.
“You must be kidding” Claude can't believe that he's now found a Wild Beast that can understand human language.
“I must be crazy, talking to a Wild Beast” Claude shook his head – and then checked the wound from the Moon Fox.
As expected Claude Moon Fox is still young, still at level one and does not have a Crystal Soul, but one thing that confuses Claude is the durability of this Moon Fox.
“What a Moon Fox is this strong, even at level one with a wound like this, they are still able to maintain their consciousness” Claude looked at Moon Fox.
“Luckily you meet me, if you meet other people maybe they will ignore or even kill you” Claude then look right, left then picked up the Moon Fox and then walked towards the thicket which was quite lush.
“Well here I think aman” through his hands Claude began to drain his Flame spirit to then Claude rub his hand on the wound on Moon Fox.
At first Moon Fox was quite shocked and rebellious when she saw Claude take out fire from her hand, Moon Fox assumed that Claude would burn and bake her.
But after feeling Claude's Immortal Flame Spirit, then Moon Fox calmed down again, slowly the injuries that Moon Fox had gradually recovered.
“Hah ... hah .. apparently treating a wound would drain as much energy as this” Claude's breath was cut off - obviously Claude was out of energy, he said, moreover, Claude himself has not fully recovered and the fact that Claude himself is still in the realm of Novice makes it unable to accelerate the healing process.
“Hei little fox, sorry I can't treat you in one go, my ability is still limited, I'm sorry, but I promise I'll definitely treat you until you're healthy again” Claude then take a cloth from his Storage Ring and then bandage the Moon Fox's wound.
Although it was still far from recovering, but the state of Moon Fox was now much better, his breathing was as usual, his face was a little bright not as pale as the first time Claude found.
Despite not being able to move his body Moon Fox nodded – nodding his head trying to thank Claude for his help.
“Heh Clever little fox, it seems like for a while we will be together, therefore I will give you the name” Claude rubbed the head of Moon Fox “Your name is now Siryu”
“You agree?” Siryu showed a happy expression when he heard Claude give him a name, “Good if you like” Claude embraced and rubbed – rubbed the little fox's head.
“Ok now you wait here, I will clean my body first, and after that we will meet an old man who sucks” even though he forgot Claude was reminded again by Ashura's treatment of him.
Immediately Claude went down and soaked in front of him, feeling the water that automatically entered washing his body through the gap – slit Upper Armor, the, then the water in his body miraculously absorbed Claude's sweat as it flowed back through the Armor gap in his legs.
The cycle kept repeating until Claude felt refreshed.
“Wah, bathing feels easier when using this Armor” murmured Claude enjoying the freshness that has been the last few days is not Claude feel.
After finishing, Claude came out of the lake, the magic thing was repeated again, where his Armor automatically dried Claude's body by itself, “Armor is very useful” Claude smiled happily.
“Hey Siryu let's go back” Claude then embrace Siryu and take him away, return to where Ashura is.
“Hey where have you been, why go take a shower you take so long, look I've even finished cooking for our breakfast” Ashura grumbled without seeing Claude coming, Ashura is forced to cook by herself as her stomach cannot wait for Claude's arrival.
“Yes occasional uncle who cooks, do not continue to rely on me” Claude then sit in front of his own food.
“What is it?” Ashura just realized that there was something in Claude's arms.
“Oh, this is Siryu, a Moon Fox”
“I didn't think we'd find a Moon Fox here, but unfortunately Moon Fox is just a type of One Tail” Ashura pay attention to the details of Siryu's body, while Siryu who was in Ashura's arms showed a confused expression.
“Yes I also know uncle, this Moon Fox is the usual kind of Moon Fox One Tail, but what weird is it that we find Moon Fox here?” Claude took Siryu back.
“Although they are One Tail type but not just any place you can find them, their native habitat is snow-covered mountains, it is certain to find them here is very strange”
“Oh” Briefly reply Claude while eating his food.
“you even gave him a name, do you mean to be a Tamer? Don't you feel too greedy with your Job?” Ashura looked at Claude's astonishment.
“Tamer? What is uncle?”
“Well it's not strange if you don't know it, because Job Tamer is indeed a very rare job”
“Tamer is a job that specializes in taming Wild Beasts, this Job is very rare because its level of mastery is near impossible, but once a Tamer manages to tame a Wild Beast, it is very rare, then forever the Wild Beast will obey the Tamer, and of course when the battle occurs the Tamer greatly benefited”
“There was even a story that said that once there was a Tamer who managed to gather the Wild Beasts and make his own army, although the story was not clear the truth, the story was, but there is a real logic to the story”
“So that even the person who owns Job Tamer he only manages to tame one Wild Beast they are still respected, even by the empire even though” Ashura explains everything he knows.
“Hmm, so what factors make the mastery level of Job Tamer near impossible uncle?”
“Blogically the best time to tame Wild Beasts is when they were level one when they were young, however since the young Wild Beasts did not have the awareness and cleverness they would not accept any intent from the humans”
“new Wild Beasts will have consciousness when they are adults or have a level of about three or four, but when it came to that point their egos as beings stronger than humans also affected them, so that in addition to crippling and binding contracts with them, these Wild Beasts would not give up”
“What does it mean to make an uncle contract?”
“That is to say the Tamer will bind the Wild Beast's soul into his body, so the Tamer can kill his Beast whenever he wants, and when the Tamer dies the Beast dies too, so for the Beast their best option is to protect the Tamer to keep her life”
“So are you also going to make a contract with this Moon Fox?”
“What might it happen uncle?”
“What is certain is the answer is no, as I said you have to follow the plot, then only then can you tame this little fox” replied Ashura chuckling.
“You yourself already know what to ask, but my intention from the beginning was to take care of him until he recovered, even after uncle told Job Tamer, even if I was not interested, once the siryu is healed I will release it and let him choose his own path” Claude stroked the head of the Syryu.
“You sure you're going to let go? This is Moon Fox, don't you know their true abilities?”
“You mean the Moon Fox Nine Tail ability, I also know uncle, but this fox is a One Tail fox, have you ever seen a Moon Fox One Tail using that legendary ability?”
“What is clear is that I have never seen it” Ashura smiled awkwardly “Yes you have taken care of the fox, and make sure you give him enough food, from earlier I saw his eyes always pay attention to the meat on your plate”
“Oh, haha you also want to eat apparently” Claude immediately took the meat soup into the bowl and then gave it to Siryu who had been laid on the ground before.
“You're done eating no, hurry there go practice”
“Good uncle” Claude immediately clean up the remaining – leftovers and immediately prepare to train again, “Siryu you wait here ya” then Claude restarted his training routine.
Without Claude and Ashura realizing in fact Siryu understood everything that was spoken to them both, ‘It turns out not all humans are evil, there are still some good children like him, but strangely the child has a healing fire, what kind of fire is it, hah .. unfortunately my strength has not fully recovered so I have not been able to contact my mother’ muttered Siryu in her heart.
Ashura looked back at Siryu who was staring fixedly at Claude, “Why do I feel like saying there is something strange with this Moon Fox?”
