After seeing her master being cheated, Pippi spontaneously jumped in front of Byakko.

“Ugly monster! You cheated! Lord hasn’t finished counting yet, but you’ve already attacked him. Shameless bastard!”

The little girl pointed at the face of the white tiger monster. Her tiny hand was shaking, yet she tried to ignore her fear.

Meanwhile, Byakko looked down at her, as if she was just a lowly being not worthy of its attention.

“You are merely a being created from a bunch of energy. Your existence is nothing more than a parasite. How dare you call me shameless? Since when did I agree that the fight starts after the count of three?”

“That is the basic rules of a duel! Are you stupid!?”

Pippi’s words were like igniting gunpowder. Instantly, the fine hairs on the back of her neck stood up. She felt a terrifying aura from Byakko.

“Heeek—!”

Pippi was about to scold it once more, but her words stopped in her throat.

Byakko walked slowly towards her. Its eyes glowed like moonlight. The air around her turned cold and piercing. It brought its face closer to Pippi. The little girl seemed to be shaking in fright.

“If you were really alive, I would have devoured you.”

Pippi fell silent, only swallowing her own saliva.

Then, Byakko’s attention was distracted. Its eyes narrowed when it felt a very strong presence.

A demon figure clad in black metal emerged from the scattering of dust. There didn’t appear to be any signs of injury. A dark aura enveloped him.

Pippi saw the figure of her master immediately smiled.

“Lord!”

There was no answer from Isaac. He just walked slowly towards them.

“As a demon, you’re pretty decent. Even if he’s hiding behind that old junk,” Byakko said quietly. A tone of contempt could be heard from every word that came out of its mouth.

Isaac was silent, ignoring the tiger’s words. He touched Pippi’s shoulder. The little girl was startled. Her hair stood on end. She could feel her master’s mood.

“Get out of the way, Pippi. Don’t interfere.”

“Okay, Lord!” Pippi ran quickly. For the first time, she didn’t want to hug Isaac.

Byakko chuckled. “You’re mad, huh?”

Once again, Isaac ignored Byakko’s words.

“This is my fault. I shouldn’t treat animals like civilized creatures. I’m too soft… too soft because this wild beast can think. I should have whipped it, so it became an obedient animal.”

Byakko’s four legs gripped the ground until they crumbled.

“Fuck! You look at me like a circus tiger. You’re looking for a pro—”

BANG!

A hard fist lands on Byakko’s face. The white tiger monster was blown back two metres.

ROAAARRRR!

Byakko roared with anger. The gravel and shards of rubble around it floated up. Without another word, the monster clawed at the air. Then, the air in high compression shot out like a thrown knife.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Isaac quickly dodged the air blade.

Thud!

The cold-wall around collapsed, leaving a slash mark. The brown dust scattered.

Byakko quickly shot out like a bullet to pounce on Isaac.

“RAAAAWWWRRGH!”

Isaac managed to dodge. He quickly attacked by throwing a barrage of fists at the monster’s body.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of metal and bone clashing boomed loudly.

Byakko roared, as if dozens of warhammars hit its body. Of course, it didn’t stand still. The monster retaliated with its claws.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Every claw that Byakko swung releases the air blades capable of slicing through various objects. The walls of the room crumbled.

Isaac kept his footing. He didn’t back down or tried to keep his distance. He continued to suppress Byakko, not giving the monster time to breathe.

Papapapa! Papapapa! Papapapa!

“Raawwwwwr!”

Then, Byakko roared in pain.

Isaac realized his opponent was getting weaker, quickly took advantage of it. He grabbed the tiger monster’s neck, then strangled it with both arms.

Byakko tried to break free, attacking in multiple directions. The hall shook as if it was about to collapse because of its rage.

Pippi watched the battle with an astonished face. All this time, she had thought that the Dungeon Master didn’t engage in battle.

Now, she saw with her own eyes that her master fought valiantly.

“This is amazing. Pippi will always remember it.”

However, this was only half the show.

Byakko was getting more and more trouble having a hard time breathing. Its chest felt tight and its body became limp. The thoughts of death flashed through its mind.

“N… no… no!”

His eyes glowed. Then, the air around him slowly spun. Over time, the airflow got bigger and created a vortex of wind.

“”Raaa…wrrg!”

Four whirlwinds swirled and danced. Rock shards, debris, and dust flew wildly in the air.

Isaac could feel the wind as if pushing him. His body felt pressured by the immense force, but he persisted. He realized that if he let go, it would all be over.

‘I have to endure it!’

Swoooow! Swwwwooosh!

A typhoon occurred inside the hall.

The whirlwinds was getting crazier, tearing up everything around him. Pippi screamed. Her body was being sucked into the whirlwind. It was fortunate that her body was made of energy, so she would get injured.

While Isaac was on the defensive, a notification sounded in his head.

Ding!

[Dark Fate’s usage took more than 15 minutes.]

“Keeguh!”

Isaac gritted his teeth. The time limit for using Dark Fate was about to end. The longer the time passed, the more his soul felt like it was blended with the cursed armour attached to his body.

Luckily, the wind flow began to weaken. Byakko started to stop struggling.

‘Here it is!’

Suddenly, the tornado stopped spinning. He quickly released his grip.

Thud!

Byakko then collapsed. The tiger monster drooped weakly, looking helpless. If Isaac was still strangling Byakko, it would have been dead.

“I lose…. demon…”

Hearing that, Isaac smiled triumphantly.

“Based on our deal, from now onwards, you will be my servant.”

Byakko looked silent. This angered Isaac.

“Answer! Or I’ll kill you now!”

A few minutes ago, he was toyed with by a Spiritual Beast. They were famous for being a cunning creature, but they wouldn’t go back on their word. Isaac wouldn’t repeat the same mistake.

Byakko blinked. “From now on, I will serve Isaac Constantine as my master.”

With this, Byakko completely became Isaac’s slave. After Byakko took its oath, a notification sound could be heard.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You, the Dungeon Master, successfully tame Spiritual Beast – Byakko!]

[Tittle ‘Master of the Wind’ obtained!]

[Effect: Magic power and wind element resistance increased by 60%!]

[Magic stat increased by 10!]

The smile on Isaac’s face grew wider. From the start, he was aiming for this title.

‘I’ve got one.’

However, Isaac still wasn’t done.

“As a form of proof of loyalty, so that you don’t turn away, I will take one of your fangs.”

Byakko could only surrender. He couldn’t do anything about his new master. Now, Isaac’s will was its will.

The Spiritual Beast opened its mouth, Isaac saw this as a sign of approval. He was holding one of its fangs, which resembled tusks.

“Get ready…”

Splaaat!

Blood flowed profusely as Isaac pulled out the Byakko’s fang.

Byakko that was originally fierce looked gloomy right now. For a tiger, fangs were the crown. Losing fangs was tantamount to losing some of his pride.

Meanwhile, Isaac seemed to think otherwise. He smiled triumphantly. Not only he got a new Spiritual Beast and title, he would have a new toy.
