“There are times when one’s soul resonates with a being born from nature at such a deep level that the world itself leads that individual towards that one being.”
Alex had figured out something from the small hints that Odin gave off starting with the quest information that he shared with them.
‘This wasn’t the first part of the quest.’
When she heard him talk about his unique quest as if it was nothing, she knew there was something more to this whole thing than what met her eyes.
She thought and as she observed him, how he was so adapted to fighting even after not being a one year old in this world, she knew there was a unique force that was helping him.
However, as a veteran, she knew whatever force was behind his tremendous strength, had not given him that power directly.
‘He had earned that power…’
She could tell the kind of strength that he had was not something that he had received without putting in any effort.
That kind of strength and experienced game style could only be cultivated with one’s efforts, system’s support, and tough quests that would take more than a normal teenager’s life experiences.
“When one Person finds a being that resonates with their very being on the deepest possible level- a level that is only known to the liberated- that is when the whole process that we call [Bonding] is triggered.”
Alex had figured out there was something unique going on with this person that they had only met coincidentally.
And when she saw the little crystal containing an embryo of a being born from nature, she had figured it out completely.
“A familiar and their master’s first meeting doesn’t happen coincidentally even if it might seem like it… we players call this phenomenon [Fate’s mischief].”
Odin stood there, covered in a blinding black-silver light, outline of a creature that was not present there until a moment ago having been materialized in front of him.
He was lost in a unique world where the being that he had been coming towards with each turn of his life was greeting him for the first time.
“A bond is formed when you meet your soulmate.”
It may seem overly romanticized but that is not really the case. Unlike the normal relationship, an actual intangible bond is formed between the souls of that individual and that creature.
This unbreakable bond is, in its truest nature, unbreakable.
“Supported by the truth of nature, truth of individual, as well as the truth of preservation: [{(Akash)}] this process is overlooked by the Path owners themselves.”
They were looking at something very rare at the moment.
The process of someone bonding with that one being that is the only one in this entire vast world that resonates with them on a particular level.
This is not something simple and more than simple, this is not something just anyone gets to see every day.
“A familiar…”
Alex wanted him to look at this scene closely so that he can at least learn a little from them and understand how this is more important than what the community understood.
‘Be it the rankers or just the normal players above level-100. Even when counting all the natives who are above that level, not even ten percent of them would have a familiar.’
And that was a very big deal… having a familiar was the symbol of the Chosen ones.
And, having one at an early stage of their (Level-100) was something very rare.
“I’ve told you about my experience with them, remember?”
She had to spend years to find the being that was The one for her.
And when she found the being that was her soulmate, she was already beyond the levels of the rankers of that time.
“It’s a magical feeling…”
Not even the viscount had a familiar, or the knights and mages with him.
“And the special thing about this whole bonding process…”
Alex looked at the smiling face of the dark knight as well as the brightness that was exuding from the creature before him.
Both of them seemed happy, and though young, this horse seemed to be quite a pure being.
“…everyone has a different experience when they Bond with their partners.”
For her, it was something different. For her acquaintances that had a familiar, it was a unique experience, and for Elio as well… when he meets the being that is meant to be with him forever, it is going to be a unique experience.
“No one knows what they experience when they are bonding with their partners.”
There are speculations saying one experiences the one thing that they had longed for, and some say people experience something they are supposed to experience sometime in the future.
But, according to what she had found out, that is not the case.
“It’s always different.”
What one experiences when they bond with their familiars is very, very subjective.
It depends only on the two of them and it could very well be influenced by one’s past experiences, one’s expectations, one’s basic personality, or something that is related closely to either of them.
[{ “It took me a long time to find my match, but I wish you luck with your search, darling.” }]
Perhaps he will find the being that he was supposed to be with on their journey, perhaps he will find it while roaming around some place himself, perhaps he will find it in the corner of a street, or perhaps he will find it in the depths of a jungle.
She didn’t know when he would meet that one being and she didn’t want to know it either.
[{ “Thanks… I wish We meet soon as well.” }]
His heart was throbbing as he watched Odin and the unique creature.
He tried using observation on them but it did not work. Anything he did, however he focused, there was no result… and he knew the reason for that is the nature of this whole process.
“Bonding.”
The process was complete, so the light had subsided, and Odin was coming back to his senses with his new partner before him.
“I wonder what my partner will look like.”
The dark horse with a silver outline body that almost made it seem like an astral being was so beautiful Elio had already taken a dozen screenshots of the two of them.
Everything they do is always being recorded so he was also thankful that she installed this amazing feature in their chariots.
“I bet it will look cute, just like my cute dumb darling~.”
This horse was gorgeous, and he was looking forward to meet the gorgeous partner of his Alex for a long time as well.
However, after watching these two, he also wanted to meet the being that will be his partner… but for that, he knew he would have to wait for a long time.
Reaching (Level-100) was a priority.
He can think about other things when he gets to that level.
