Reincarnated As A Side Villain
Familiarity
Argeas had gone deep enough into the forest when he then passed a 4-tailed fox that was the size of a working buffalo.
"Oh, Elemental Fox? Not Vermilion?"
The ends of the four fox tails had different faint colors, which represented 4 elemental magic. Red, Blue, Green, Yellow. Representing Fire, Water, Wind, Land.
"I remember the Mythical Beast in this event was the Vermilion Fire Bird." Argeas remembered.
"Maybe the change in detail is affected by the time this event is activated. All right, no problem for me. Here forward. Because you can only be tamed after you've been defeated, right?"
And Argeas was ready. All of his magic equipment is active.
But with no warning and no signs at all, a fireball suddenly appeared before the fox and shot towards Argeas.
Argeas deftly countered the fireball with an ice bullet.
But the fox again tried to attack Argeas this time with the same attack, which is ice bullet magic.
And Argeas can hold it back.
The elemental magic attacks that the fox then unleashed, all of them could be held back by Argeas quite well.
Fire magic is countered with ice magic, wind magic with earth magic, and so on.
"Although in this way, the fox's movement pattern was the same as when fighting him as the mini boss in the Tower of Cliffs {El-Asa} in his game," said Argeas who began to understand the pattern of his opponent's attack.
"That means after the jump, then there will be a gap to carry out the attack."
Argeas waited for the opportunity patiently.
Shortly after, as predicted, the fox leapt onto a tree branch and began preparing to cast its high-level magic toward Argeas.
That high-level magic method was the gap that Argeas meant to make an attack. And quickly, the young man took out a medium-level Magic Spell right towards the fox's stomach.
"Javelin Frost!"
And an ice spear slid through the stomach of the four-tailed fox until it bounced backwards.
Not waiting anymore, Argeas again prepared with another attack.
"Flare Orbs!"
The explosion occurred when the fireballs that Argeas released hit the fox's body.
But before Argeas could cast his third magic, suddenly a voice that did not come from his ear.
'Enough. Stop the. I could die if you keep attacking me.' A voice like a woman's voice echoed in Argeas' head.
"Oh... Is our fight over?" Argeas.
'Yes. I admit defeat. Forgive my life, ' said the voice. That is the voice of the fox.
"alright. I also have no intention of killing you," Argeas retorted hanging his magic wand on his back waist.
'Only this time I met a human as strong as you. And in exchange for forgiveness for my life, accept my devotion."
"alright. I accept your devotion" replied Argeas without a second thought. Because he really wanted it.
Then suddenly the figure of the fox began to glow white. Along with the right wrist Argeas also shone.
And a rune symbol was written around Argeas' wrist like a black circular bracelet tattoo.
...<>...
...<>...
...<>...
...<>...
...<<>>...
Then suddenly the shining fox figure turned into a pure light which then entered the Argeas Rune symbol as if absorbed into it.
After the fox completely disappeared, a black robe fell out of nowhere.
'Call me when you need to, sir, ' said the fox who then fell silent.
"Attent. But how do I call you? Do you have a name? What's yourname?" ask Argeas then.
But there is no answer.
"Status!" exclaims Argeas calling his Status Window.
"There is no active Skill to call him as in the game. There is only and Special Skill passive," he said after checking the Status Window closely.
"Then how do I call him?"
Argeas walked up to pick up a protective cape that was no longer than his elbow.
...<>...
"I'm looking for the answer at home. I have been in the forest long enough. I'll probably worry about me."
And Argeas hurried back to the lips of the forest.

Upon the arrival of Argeas at the camp at the mouth of the forest, he immediately took out all his hunting from Spatial Storage, as he was the last participant to arrive.
"Since when have you had that Spatial Storage?" ask the father who just found out his son has it.
"It's only been a few months now" Argeas quickly replied. He forgot that he did not tell the Storage to his family.
"You bought it yourself?"
Argeas.
"You should have asked us. Isn't it expensive?"
"It's no problem, Dad. Ar's savings are still enough to buy it."
"Yes, even so..." A slightly disappointed look from my father.
.
And after the calculation of the results of the hunt was completed, Argeas was announced as the winner of the Hunting Festival this time. With a fairly large difference with the second position. That's 25 to 260.
Which clearly attracted the attention and discussion of everyone present.
"Had said, 'just for sure', Ar," said the father looking at his son with an angry look.
Which only Argeas could reply with his guilty smile.

Later that night Argeas headed to the library to find a book on how to call his Familiar.
Its sizeable form made the items in the library fall down from being nudged as the fox moved
"Whoa... You finally got out. How was that?" Argeas looked surprised but was also happy.
"Has big brother gone crazy taking out the Mythical Beast inside the Library? He's gonna mess up this room." A voice sounded from behind Argeas.
"Whoa... Luxia?!" Argeas was surprised to find his sister already standing in front of him in front of the library entrance.
Argeas tries to block Luxia's view of her Four-Tailed Fox. But the beast was too big to hide behind his back.
"This... " Argeas was too panicked to find an excuse.
"Where did you find him?" asked the younger brother not looking surprised at all to find a giant fox in the middle of the library.
The girl who was about to turn 11 pointed her hand forward and walked up to the fox without fear.
"Lux. be careful...."
Argeas looked worried when he saw his sister trying to touch the head of the four-tailed fox. Because he felt he was still unable to control the mythical beast in full. He was worried that Luxia might get hurt when suddenly the fox went berserk.
"Oh, Lushu?" luxia said after touching the fox's head. Or rather the fox who let Luxia touch him.
"What is Lushu?" Argeas asked not understanding.
"The name of this fox," replied Luxia who now began to gently rub the fox's head.
"This Elemental Fox's name?" Argeas asked to make sure.
"Right," Luxia replied quickly.
Now the fox named Lushu stepped closer while rubbing his head into Luxia's arms and body. Looks friendly and friendly.
"You can communicate with the Mythical Beast?" Argeas was again surprised by his younger sister.
-
"true." Luxia answered quickly. "I have one too" he continued.
"Get out Garra."
And suddenly from the tattoo on Luxia's wrist that was hidden behind her long sleeve clothes appeared a white light that then transformed into a tiny dragon standing on the table.
"Woaw!! This... Dragon?" Argeas was surprised.
"No. He's Wyvern," Luxia said.
The dragon-like Mythical Beast shook its tail, and stretched its tiny wings like a chicken.
"When did you have it? Moreover, since when have you been able to come in contact and talk to a Mythical Beast?" asked the curious Argeas.
"Have what? Garras? I don't know, I forgot. Maybe around my sixth age?" replied Luxia who now swapped the petite dragon's head.
"All that young?" Argeas sounded amazed. He has never heard of the Danae family in the game. So this is the first time he's found out about this.
"Is that also the reason why his stature looks so beautiful?" the question is again purely curious.
"I adjusted her form to fit in this room," replied the little girl. "If the original form, yes as big as Wyvern in general," he continued.
"You can set the form of a Mythical Beast?"
Luxia nodded.
"When did you get to do it? I mean the connection with the Mythical Beasts?" Argeas continued his question.
"I feel from birth. I was endowed with the magic attribute of a pretty dominant [Spirit]," Luxia replied.
"Magic attribute [Spirit]? Means not just against Mythical Beasts alone?" The brother made sure.
"Yes. Fairy too. I've also done Aura pact with Fairy" replied the sister.
"Contract with Fairy?"
It looks like little Wyvern Luxia is playing around with the tail of the elemental fox Argeas like a cat.
"Why didn't you tell us? Do you and mom know?"
"They all know. Only my brother doesn't know. Unwilling to know," Luxia replied without further ado.
"Oh, I think you're right" Argeas replied quickly.
'Yes, I used to be selfish. And do not want to know with my surroundings, his mind in the heart.
"I'm sorry brother" Argeas said again with a little shame and guilt.
"Dad advised me not to take Garra out often before I could control her" Luxia said, not giving much importance to her brother's guilty remarks.
"And can you control it now?" asked Argeas who looked really worried.
"Don't worry. I've completely mastered Mythical Beast control since the age of 8," Luxia replied.
"really? You're amazing, Lux."
"It's just a boon like that big sister class [Arcmage]."
"Yes, even so.... Oh, right!" Suddenly Argeas exclaimed as if he had just obtained something.
"How about you teach brother about controlling this mythical creature?" he continued with a request to Luxia.
"Do you want to learn from me?"
Argeas nodded quickly. "Yes. Do you mind?" tanyanya.
"You can ask for something instead" he bargained later.
"But I'm younger than brother." Luxia replied with a completely clueless look.
"Then why? Can't I learn from the younger ones? I'm also not very old. Only 4 years with you" Argeas replied trying to convince his sister.
"Hows it? What do you want instead? A book? Brother will try to get it for you. The food? Just mention it."
"Alright.." replied Luxia then with a slight hesitation. "I just want the lantern that you have," he continued.
"Lantern? What do you mean [Lantern of Path]? How do you know you have it?"
"That lantern has a very powerful [Spirit] magic. I can feel it when once in a while brother takes it out of brother's Spatial Storage." Luxia answered.
"Oh, can you feel it? It's amazing." Argeas was really amazed to know the ability that his little sister had.
And without lingering, the young man immediately retrieved the object that the younger brother was referring to from his storage.
"Alright then, this lantern is yours" he said, handing the strange lantern with a handle the size of a sword to Luxia.
