Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 326: Past Events on the Tern Continent

It was pitch black.

By the time Baihu began to realize this, her mind had already begun to wander.

"(If I give up here, everything will be over.)"

Xuanwu's voice was vividly cheering him up, but Baihu knew that this was just a fantasy in his mind.

After the destruction of the Four Gods Base, she didn't have many close friends. If she didn't fight, she wouldn't be able to survive in this cruel world.

This point is deeply engraved in Baihu's heart.

If I fall, then it must be my fault...

No, I can't fall down easily because I still have unfinished business.

But everything is irreversible.

……

"Did you fail again?"

Kazamatsuri Mikan couldn't hide her disappointment. Indeed, perhaps she had been asking too much. It seemed she would have to bury the White Tiger herself.

Just when Fengjie Meikan wanted to collect Baihu's body, Baihu suddenly and mysteriously resurrected.

"Everything that can't defeat me will eventually make me stronger. I won't lose, because I have the power of friendship with the King of Beasts!"

In the end, the King of Beasts went mad. He knew that if the White Tiger died, he would die too. So, in extreme anger, the King of Beasts' potential exploded and rose to Level B!

The White Tiger also understood the intention of the King of Beasts. The powerful life energy healed the White Tiger's wounds powerfully, allowing her to attack Kazematsu Mikan while she was still holding on to her last breath!

But Fengjie Meikan directly pressed Baihu's wrist, signaling her not to act rashly!

"You won. No matter what means you used, your monster has reached B-rank, there is no doubt about that. So what happens next is a natural progression."

After saying that, Kazematsu Mikan blew a breath of divine air, and the [Meta Field] was lifted.

Baihu felt dazed. In this short period of time, she seemed to have been baptized to a great extent.

Now, Baihu immediately summoned the king of strange beasts into his own flash diamond card.

"What a vibrant vitality."

Even Kazesami Mikan had to admire Baihu's will to survive, "Deep down in your heart, you have an almost obsessive determination to stay alive, and this is also reflected in your monster. It likes you very much."

"Thank you."

Baihu didn't want to dwell on this too much, "Now, it's time to fulfill your promise."

"Of course, Ms. Hamel. I'm sure your friends are getting impatient."

……

"Xuanwu-senpai, tell me, what exactly does Kazamatsuri Mikan wants me to see?"

Yi Yin was in the Adventurer's Guild, looking at the swaying ceiling above his head.

"She specifically asked us about the monster's level. Could it be that she wants us to act as her thugs? But then again, isn't Kazematsu the Shadow King? The monster must be S-rank. If she can't even handle it herself, what can we do?"

“(You have so many questions.)”

Xuanwu turned sideways, facing away from him, "(For such questions, why not ask Kazamatsuri Mikan directly?)"

"Are you so sure she'll win?"

"(certainly.)"

Xuanwu closed his eyes and began to meditate. "(In all the years I've known her, she never does anything unprepared. Now that I think about it, she should have succeeded.)"

"Yeah……"

Yiyin fell silent after saying this. If Xuanwu was right, then both her and Baihu's monsters had reached B-rank. Of the four goddesses, only Suzaku's monster remained at C-rank.

But the question is... who cares about her?

Things are different now. Monsters on Blue Star have become extremely rare. Each one should be carefully cared for and raised to the highest level possible.

In fact, this matter has already started a long time ago.

……

When Iin saw Baihu again, she was discussing with Kazematsu Mikan about whether her friends were waiting anxiously.

The conclusion is: No.

Xuanwu took Yiyin to the circus at the right time.

"You all passed."

Kazamatsuri Mikanki smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"Very good……"

Yi Yin couldn't help but give Bai Hu a thumbs up, "I knew you could do it!"

"Oh,"

Bai Hu thought it would be better to talk about business first, "How about you tell us when we get home first? I also have a lot of things I want to know."

.

After being away from home for many days, Yiyin finally returned to her dream hometown.

"That won't do. How can you mistake a foreign land for your homeland?"

Kazamatsuri Mikuni has become indifferent to all the prosperity in the world. "My true hometown should be that unreachable other shore."

"Feng Ji, let me ask you a question first. So, you're not from the Tern Continent? Even you can't break through the blockade order? What secrets does Uqbar hide? Is there any sign of Rokakaka?"

"You have so many questions, so many problems."

Kazematsu Mikan touched the brim of his hat and gave Iin a nickname with a smile.

"..."

"Well, since I've chosen you, I think I should introduce myself to you first. My name is Kazamatsuri Mikan, and I'm a native of the Tern Continent."

When talking about the past, Kazamatsuri Mikan knew it like the back of his hand.

"When I was born, the continent of Thorn had not yet banned monsters like it does now. The atmosphere back then was much more open than it is now. That's how I got to know my monster, and I've been with him ever since."

"I know that later, the 'Blood Cross' wreaked havoc, nearly wiping out the entire Tern Continent. The survivors established a new order in the ruins, but the former prosperity could never be restored."

When mentioning the "Blood Cross", Yiyin still felt a little scared.

“‘Blood Cross’…!”

White Tiger gnashed his teeth and said, "If it weren't for it, our Four Gods Base wouldn't have been destroyed!"

"Huh? You guys... Impossible, absolutely impossible. In the entire history of Blue Star, the Blood Cross has only occurred once, on the Tern Continent. I've been closely following the Rotten Tomatoes Daily for years, and there's no way they're wrong."

"?"

Yi Yin and the others were confused, as this was in obvious contradiction with their understanding.

However, to be honest, the "Blood Cross" circulating in the Four Gods Base was just Xing Qiri's words, but they all subconsciously believed that it was correct.

Neither Suojia nor Tianyi admitted that it was the "Blood Cross"... Could it be that they had been misled by Xing Qiri all along?

"Well, Fengjie, may I ask how you have managed to survive until now? I know that the Ten Shadow Kings are all very special, but your monster doesn't look like the Time Demon, Emperor Minga..."

"Have you seen my monster?"

Kazematsu Mikan asked doubtfully, "That's impossible. My monster has no physical form and ordinary people can't see it. How did you see it? Also, from your tone, have you ever met Master Angulin?"

"You say I have a lot of problems, but you have the same..." Yi Yin complained in his heart.
