"Fuuu…" Clovis exhaled. He had returned from Another World Mall after making a big decision.
He took out a few items with a tired face. As expected, he bought the items and planned to turn a beast into his pet. It might cause a lot of problems, but this would be their chance to deal with the situation.
In addition, this was also a perfect ti to do it. But because he had spent too much money to buy all this, he didn't have enough money left to use the Super Discount.
Still, Clovis didn't leave the room imdiately. Just like the others, he was searching for any clues inside this room. He didn't expect much from this place.
He thought that his parents wouldn't leave anything special here, fully aware that the enemies might investigate this place.
After two hours, he finally opened the door, finding his teammates who had gathered in the living room. They also couldn't find anything, so the mont they saw the items Clovis brought out, they realized that his parents had left it in their bedroom.
"You found sothing?" Kanaria looked surprised.
"Yeah." Clovis nodded and brought it to them.
"A watch?"
"A choker?"
"What are all these?"
They were confused, inspecting the items one by one. They couldn't help but think Clovis was just trying to bring everything that brought so mories.
They misunderstood that Clovis took so much ti inside because he was crying. His parents and grandfather had left him for a few years after all.
However, Clovis explained, "This is a special collar that can ta a beast."
"!!!" Kanaria, Erwin, and lody widened their eyes in shock.
"What do you an?" Ragna asked in disbelief.
"You heard it right." Clovis confird it with a nod. "We might be able to ta a beast with this and groom it to be stronger than its original form."
"What? Is that even possible?" Kanaria raised her voice.
The others agreed with Kanaria since they had never heard anything about this.
"Yeah. You should know that my grandfather is currently roaming around the world just to hide, right? Where do you think is the safest place to hide?"
"In the danger zone?" Kanaria gasped. That was right. If they wanted to escape, they only needed to go to the beast area. The enemies had to kill those beasts before reaching him.
Of course, the beasts would also co after them if they entered their territory, but what if his grandfather had a way to ta the beast? What if his grandfather could turn them into friends? If that was the case, it could be said that Clovis' grandfather could easily hide inside a Tier 9 beast territory.
"This…" Kanaria looked down, falling into deep thought.
"Are you serious?" Erwin sucked a cold breath. This idea would change everything.
"This is the choker that is able to ta the beast. I don't know how he is able to do it, but there is only one." Clovis pointed at the choker. He was indirectly implying that even if they caught a beast, it would only be one beast. He added, "Also, we could only catch a Tier 1 beast or lower."
"That's too weak." Erwin squinted his eyes.
"Didn't you say that you could train the beast? Does this an they'll beco much stronger and upgrade a tier? How does that even work?" Jay asked, paying full attention to this new concept.
"Do you rember when I told you that I couldn't use beast souls?"
"Yeah." Jay nodded. Kanaria also confird it. Clovis indeed said that he couldn't use beast souls because his grandfather told him not to.
That was why Clovis could say, "I would need to buy pet food and mix it with my own blood. It's said to have the nutritional value to enhance the beast's strength."
"!!!" Jay dropped his jaw.
"Does that an everyone can do it as long as they don't have a beast soul in their body?" Kanaria frowned.
anwhile, Erwin noticed an even more troubleso possibility. "No. If that's the case, doesn't it an people can use children to grow beasts?"
"I'm not sure how it works, but maybe I'm different?" Clovis pointed at himself, shifting their thoughts to only focus on him.
The others couldn't help but fall silent. They couldn't deny that Clovis was different.
For Erwin, Clovis was the one with the Hacfield family's bloodline. For Ragna, Clovis had unique antiques that sohow boosted their abilities. For lody, Clovis was soone who might be able to reach Tier 9 in the future.
Kanaria thought no such thing since Clovis' safety was what she had in mind, but Jay was different. Jay considered Clovis his rival.
And because of that, he thought about one thing.
"The fact that you are different… No, the thing that makes you different... Isn't it the ability to reach Tier 9?" Jay asked. "If we eliminate all possible scenarios, we might reach that answer. To reach Tier 9, you need a unique ability. What if your unique ability can actually do sothing for the beasts?"
There was tension inside the living room. On the one hand, if what Jay said was correct, it gave a reason why they wanted to get Clovis. On the other hand, this also ant that Clovis' unique ability was much different than they originally thought. Even Erwin, who thought he had seen everything about Clovis, doubted his own eyes at this point.
Jay's misunderstanding actually helped him. Looking at their shocked faces made him feel guilty, but he couldn't tell them about Another World Mall for the ti being.
"Maybe… Maybe not. I don't know much either." Clovis shook his head helplessly. His team thought that Jay's reasoning was feasible and chose to believe it.
"Well, if this is truly the case, you are able to change the world. But if your blood is that precious, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of people coming for us." Erwin's expression turned grim.
"It doesn't matter. Our goal remains the sa. We'll just beco the best exploration team out there." Ragna shrugged.
"True." lody also didn't care much. Clovis would definitely check about it with his mother, so at that ti, she could also ask his mother to help her brother.
Kanaria finally understood the burden that Clovis carried. She wondered if this was the reason why Clovis never accepted her invitation.
Jay, on the other hand, beca even more fired up. For him, the unique ability had to be awakened, aning that he might have one but had yet to awaken it. He didn't plan to drop the competition between them just because he didn't have the unique ability right now.
Clovis smiled wryly, never thinking that the bullshit would actually work this well.
