Gacha Summoner - Chapter 2 Contracting Grimoire
After who know how long, the boy slowly regain his consciousness.
He find himself in a room with Chinese decoration that speak of eastern culture.
“San-er, thank goodness you regain your consciousness. I know it’s sad to know that both of your parents no longer in this world, but you still have me as fourth aunt to take care of you. No, from now on you must call me fourth mother because I already decide to be your mother in place of your mother”, said a mature beautiful woman toward the boy.
The boy look toward the woman in daze because of her beauty and saw her eyes that a bit red. It’s obvious that this woman is crying before.
After staring at daze, the boy then snap out of it.
“I understand…. Fourth mother”, the boy said with a bit of hesitation.
“Umm, I’m sure you’re getting hungry after this whole ordeal and fallen unconscious. I’ll bring you some tasty food to cheer you up a bit”, the woman then walk out of the room, leaving the boy alone.
The boy then trying to walk toward a mirror to see his own appearance.
He want to confirm wether his suspicions are true or not.
After the boy take a good look at his own face he become dumbfound for a while.
There is no doubt that this is not his own face.
Not to mention this room and previous woman, he know nothing about them.
He open the window of his room to get a good look at the outside.
What the boy saw make him frightened.
Several unknown ferocious beasts flying in the sky with humans that mount them.
The boy thought that maybe the woman earlier is part of a prank but after seeing those ferocious beasts flying in the sky, there is no doubt that this is no longer earth.
The boy sit at the bed and trying to calm down.
He recall the last time he live on earth, when he play his favorite ero gacha game after part time work.
He recall that he got an unknown script that able to transmigrated him to other world after opening a rainbow chest.
After the boy recall his previous memory, the boy finally conclude that he really is transmigrated to Soaring Dragon Continent as Yue Yang.
“Well, since I already transmigrated here then might as well enjoy it. My previous live on earth is boring as hell without any excitement. That’s why I addict to play gacha game to fill my time, but now that I really transmigrated to another world I’ll live my live to the fullest, hehehe”
Now that the boy finally come to term with his situations, he finally decide to live his new live with his new identity.
He decide to live his new live as Yue Yang.
Now Yue Yang want to plan his future, but before he start to think, the door’s room opened by Fourth mother while she enter the room bringing a tray of food.
For now Yue Yang decide to fill his stomach first before he try to think about his future.
…………..
After Yue Yang finish his food, he decide to try to ask his Fourth mother to give him a grimoire.
Most likely his golden finger will only be revealed after he possess a grimoire since his cheat is in the form of inherent skill and guardian beast.
Not to mention, he keep frequently have headache and feeling a pain at his soul as though it’s about to split in two after arrive in this world.
Most likely the original Yue Yang’s soul is still exist in this body along with his soul, and he only gain control of this body temporarily since the original Yue Yang’s soul has gotten weaker.
That’s why he want to contract his grimoire and unlock his guardian beast: Soul Devouring Beast to devour the original Yue Yang’s soul and snatch his memory and experience.
That way, he’ll be able to live as Yue Yang more flawlesly without anyone getting suspicious about his identity.
“Are you sure San-er, after all you’re still too young. You don’t have to be that anxious, after all you’re still 9 years old. You still have much time to get stronger”
“No Fourth Mother, I want to try contract grimoire as soon as possible. After my parents die I want to get stronger so that I can protect myself and those around me. I don’t want to rely on other people’s protections”, said Yue Yang with determination on his face, even though on his mind he’s getting anxious while hopefully manage to trick Fourth Mother to accept his new changes without much suspicions.
After getting silent for a bit, Fourth Mother finally agree to his request and told Yue Yang to wait in courtyard even though it’s night time.
It’s in order to not make a mess inside house in case there is something wrong when Yue Yang trying to contract grimoire.
Fourth mother will also stay beside Yue Yang to safeguard him if anything goes wrong.
She come back with a grimoire, while trying to console him a bit in case he fail to contract a grimoire again.
However Yue Yang is not listening to Fourth mother, instead his attention focus toward the grimoire in fourth mother’s hands.
It looked a little bronze with its colour faded and old.
It was strangely thick, two or three times thicker than a normal book.
The cover was even filled with strange, ancient character.
Yue Yang feel deeply attracted toward the book.
This feeling is like when he’s still in previous world when he stare at his favorite ero gacha game, waiting for him to start playing the game with his army of heroines that seem like beckoning toward him to spoil them.
Yue Yang subconsciously reached his hands out toward the grimoire in Fourth mother hands, as though he is about to caress his favorite heroines.
Unbeknownst to him, the moment his fingers touch the book, that book suddenly shone with golden light.
The whole courtyard was filled with golden light, startling Fourth mother that stood beside him.
Suddenly an endless flow of knowledge surged into Yue Yang’s brain violently.
Yue Yang didn’t have time to react as his brain was stuffed with strange knowledge to the brim.
On the other side, the book is still emitting a strong light, as though there were still more knowledge to be transmited.
His mind seemed to understood countless things while at the same time not comprehend them.
He was in a situation where he seem to undertand, but not understand, seemed clear but not too clear, such a confused state.
Inside his body, something seemed to change, like there were something about to awaken.
It felt like mysterious power that had slept inside him all this while was awakened.
Yue Yang guess that it was his inherent skill and guardian beast that he got from his request in previous world.
When the golden light reach the limit, it stopped expanding and all the golden light started soaring to the skies.
The light pillar was imcomparably tall reaching hundreds of meters high.
Fourth mother incomparably shock this time, after all this light pillar represented a grimoire contractor’s potential.
An ordinary contractor would never have light pillar.
Normally, the light would only flash from their bodies and soar up to two or three meters. This process didn’t even last a few seconds.
A person who obtained a light pillar above five meters was already a rare genius.
Those capable of exceeding ten meters would have a chance to join Innate Rankers.
In that case what kind of potential that Yue Yang possess since he manage to have a light pillar at several hundreds meters?
However instead of elated, Fourth mother have an expression of worry and fear.
This is because since the light pillar manage to soar to sky, there will be many people that will be able witness this phenomenon.
Many people will investigate this and Yue Yang will be forced in the spotlight.
It’s fine if Yue Yang merely attract powerhouse that want to recruit him, although it will be troublesome.
However what if there are persons that want to kill Yue Yang to nip his potential from the bud?
Fourth mother will not be able to stand it if Yue Yang being killed since his sister entrust Yue Yang to her care.
The light pillar should stand out like sore thumb now since it was night time, however after quite a bit of time there are not any powerhouses that visit their residence to inquire about this phenomenon, nor are there any commotions.
Instead all the populations in White Stone city right now is still keep busy with their own activities.
Even though Fourth mother doesn’t know the reasons for this, she is able to sigh with relief for the time being.
‘Maybe there is an unknown powerhouse that help us concealed San-er’s light pillar’, thought Fourth mother
Unbeknownst to her that her guess was actually spot on. Right now the only one who observe Yue Yang’s light pillar aside from her is an old man that currently sit in front of Assassins guild.
This old man is a supreme powerhouse at the peak of Innate ranker and his name is quite famous in the whole Soaring Dragon Continent.
The main reasons for his fame is because he is rumored to have already kill millions of people.
His name itself represented death for majority of people.
His name is An Xi, a reputable level 10 Innate ranker that stood at the very peak of Soaring Dragon Continent.
Yue Yang would know about his name since he is also an avid reader of Long Live Summons in his previous world.
“Hmm, I feel an unusual energy that about to erupt in the Yue clan branch resident so I cover the whole residence with barrier to hide its presence from people. To think this whole energy erupt from that boy when he contracted a grimoire, not to mention potential with hundreds meters light pillar. There is no doubt that he will be able to become an ultimate powerhouse that easily surpass the peak of Innate rankers in future. It’s also a good thing that I choose to cover the whole light pillar with a barrier to prevent witness. This way I’ll also be able to make that boy owe me one favor. I hope he’ll be able to help me kill Ocean Emperor in the future once he is strong enough”, said the hemp-clothed old man.
While all this happened, Yue Yang is in the middle of receiving knowledge on how to use his Soul Devouring Beast.
Yue Yang immediately awakened his Soul Devouring Beast and make it start to devouring the original Yue Yang’s soul.
Slowly, the original Yue Yang’s soul being devoured bit by bit.
At the same time this happened, the hundreds meter light pillar also rose a few meters.
Once the whole original Yue Yang’s soul being devoured completely, the current Yue Yang immediately receive all his memory from the time of his childhood until the day he lose consciousness because he received news about his parents death.
Although there are nothing remarkable about his whole memory at least Yue Yang right now will be able to truly life his new life as the new Yue Yang.
Any other person will not be able differentiate him from previous Yue Yang even if they check his soul, since he possess the same soul as the previous Yue Yang after the current Yue Yang devour his soul completely, though his soul right now is many times stronger .
This is the effect of his request at the Transmigration script when the transmigrated Yue Yang request for no side effect whenever he devoured souls.
Without any side effect or complications, the transmigrated Yue Yang will always be able to keep his original personality from before he transmigrated to this world.
The golden light that engulfing Yue Yang slowly disappeared, returning back into book, barely shining between Yue Yang’s fingers and the book itself.
This bronze coloured book that looked really heavy started to float in the air and stopped in front of him.
The feeling it gave Yue Yang is not that of a heavy book but something that was part of him like his arms or legs.
Suddenly a voice woke him up from a daze.
“San-er, you succeded in making a contract with summoning grimoire! Moreover you possess several hundreds light pillar as your potential. This, this…. Thank goodness. Big sis, did you see that? San-er had succeded in making a contract, and he possess unlimited potential. In the future he will surely be able to stand at the top of not only Soaring Dragon Continent, but also at the whole world”, said Fourth mother with tears.
“San-er, you possess several hundreds meters light pillar as your potential measure, but you’re not allowed to grew complacent. Potential will only be able to be converted to strength with hard work”
“I will remember your teachings fourth mother. However can we keep the matter about me able to contract grimoire at 9 years old as secret?”
“Why? Tomorrow I intend to announce to the whole clan about your success at contracting a grimoire. This way you’ll be able to receive more support and resources from the clan to cultivate, San-er”
“Fourth mother, you should know that I able to contract grimoire at 9 years old is too shocking. I don’t want to attracted any unwanted attentions and just wanted to cultivated in peace. Even if I don’t receive any support from clan it doesn’t matter since I’m confident to rise my strength without anyone helps”
Fourth mother contemplate his words for a while before finally agreed.
After all the matters about Yue Yang able to summoned several hundreds light pillar without anyone noticing is too strange.
She don’t want Yue Yang to attracted anymore attentions that may potentially bring him any harm.
“All right San-er, fourth mother agreed. However I have to warn you an important matter. San-er, you must promise me not to tell anyone even in our family about your light pillar. Although I don’t know why White Stone City residents doesn’t notice your light pillar, you must never tell any second person about this. Unless you already possess strength enough to confidently protect yourself, okay?”, said Fourth mother sternly.
“Yes fourth mother, San-er promise that I will never tell anyone about my own light pillar even to my future girlfriends so you can rest assured, hehehe”
“This boy… good then, It’s already night time. I’ll check your inherent skill and guardian beast tomorrow. Tonight you have to get enough rest, since tomorrow you’ll start training and I’ll personally teach you anything about grimoire cultivations. Good night San-er”
“Yes, good night Fourth mother”
After that Yue Yang left alone in his room. He already know about his inherent skill and guardian beast so he doesn’t need to check his grimoire for the time being.
Instead he want to make a future plan and how he’ll live this new life as Yue Yang.
However, right now Yue Yang is very tired. So tired that he want to sleep for several days.
Most likely it was from devouring the original Yue Yang’s soul.
Although there are no side effects, it was still mentally strained.
That’s why for tonight, Yue Yang just want to sleep.
