BOSS Transmigrates as a Little Cutie - Chapter 138: Companion Beast
Chapter 138: Companion Beast
Andrea’s face remained unchanged. After bowing and straightening up, he walked straight to Phil’s side and sat down. While warmly caring for Phil’s body, he received the tool for this task from the so-called “system”.
The tool is a contract method. This contract method is completely different from the way of contracting companion beasts in this world. Surprisingly, the companion beast will serve as the slave of the contractor, and the death of the companion beast will not bring harm to the contractor.
Andrea hurriedly glanced at it and was surprised to find that this contract could also contract humans. Despite the surprise, Andrea has gotten used to the system bringing out something amazing from time to time.
This system suddenly appeared in Andrea’s mind five years ago and chose him as the host.
In the beginning, Andrea, who was a poor boy, was very afraid of the system, but now, he is getting along well with this cold system.
The system told him boldly that as long as it could provide him with energy, it would enable him to stand on the highest point of the world like Edmund, the emperor of Valanst.
At first, Andrea did not believe it. After all, that was the emperor known as the legend. He could never imagine in his wildest dreams that he could reach that position. But the system is very strong, and with obliteration as punishment, Andrea can only follow what it puts him to do.
In the blink of an eye, five years have passed, and Andrea has been transformed from head to toe. From the poor boy who had nothing and was bullied, he has become the most promising and youngest general in the empire.
Now, ambition also swells in Andrea’s heart. He dreams almost every day that he can sit in the most honored position in the empire.
“System? Why do you want Phil to contract the Star beast? Can’t I also do it?” Andrea asked. As he said this, he really treated the Star beast as an ordinary beast, completely devoid of any reverence for an emperor.
The system, which has always been indifferent, replied to Andrea’s words: “You already have your own companion beast. If you abandon it rashly, it will be detrimental to your reputation. Phil’s heart already belongs to you, so letting him contract is the best way. When Phil contracts the Star beast, let him use the contract method provided by this system. At the same time, you will also use this contract method to contract Phil.”
Andrea was surprised by the system’s words. He didn’t expect that he would have to contract Phil or use a method that could be called cruel.
But even though Andrea’s heart was turning over, his gentle expression when he looked at Phil remained the same, and he said to Mrs. Gled: “This time, when choosing a contract person for His Majesty, people seem to be unhappy with the council’s decision and want to add some difficulties to the selection.”
With that, Andrea looked at Phil’s expression turning worried. He reached out to hold Phil’s wrist and gently advised, “Phil is not in good health these days. It would be better to withdraw instead, okay?”
Hearing the worry in Andrea’s words, a look of satisfaction instantly flashed through Mrs. Gled’s eyes.
Phil immediately drew back his arm and said with wide eyes, “I’m not giving up, don’t underestimate me!”
Andrea naturally took Phil into his arms again and coaxed him, but his lowered gaze flashed with thought.
This time, the task issued by the system is obviously very important. Otherwise, it is impossible to use obliteration as the punishment for failure.
Over the years, countless contractors have been chosen for the sleeping emperor. Still, none have been able to successfully contract His Majesty and wake him up. By now, this ritual of selection has simply become customary. If the selection this time does not provoke opposition from the majority of the empire’s citizens, then there is simply no difficulty in making Phil the final choice.
After all, the Gled family’s position is there. No one even expects to awaken His Majesty anymore, so putting this honor on Phil’s head while selling the Gled family and Andrea a good deal would be the most cost-effective deal for the council.
But this time, the candidates are all wastes born without a companion beast, which can instantly anger the fans of His Majesty.
How could such an emperor, who had built the Valanist Empire and led them against the disaster of the collapse of the world, have a waste as a contract person?
Because of this news, the star network has been in an uproar. There are even radicals who threaten to blow up the council. Moreover, the heirs of the old nobles who previously followed His Majesty also disapproved of the council’s decision.
Therefore, the council had to make adjustments to the selection procedure this time. They got one of His Majesty’s scales and hid it in the largest jungle of the Capital Star. The candidates will be randomly dropped into this jungle.
The person who finally gets His Majesty’s scale and successfully walks out of the forest will become His Majesty’s contract person. At the same time, the process of selection will be broadcasted live through the star network to ensure the absolute fairness of the selection.
Such a method was finally accepted by His Majesty’s followers, but it created an obstacle for Andrea’s mission. Because he knew that Phil’s body was weak, it would have been difficult to travel long distances in the forest, let alone get the scale.
However, he might be able to secretly manipulate the candidate’s drop-off location? With Andrea’s current position, manipulating this contract person selection is not a problem at all.
Andrea’s eyes were downcast as he slowly thought about his task this time. Meanwhile, Mrs. Gled looked at Andrea and Phil, who were embracing each other with a satisfied face, completely unaware that the wasteful stepson, whom she had gotten killed, had already arrived at the star system where the Capital Star was located.
Since the space hub station of that unmanned star system had not been used for too long, the teleportation range was greatly limited, only sending the Red Rose into the star system where the Capital Star was located, instead of transporting Qing Yun directly to the space station next to the Capital Star.
Once they entered the system, all the pirates in the Red Rose looked at the scenery around the Capital Star with longing faces. They were not born as star pirates. Everyone had their reasons, and some of them had once reigned on the Capital Star. This time, when they returned to this place, they were naturally quite saddened.
In the past, the Red Rose has been afraid to enter the system around the Capital Star because their reputation as the Horst Star Pirates is so great that the police will immediately chase after them when they see their iconic starship.
However, this time, the Red Rose entered the Capital Star’s range without any attack from the police, and several starships even showed goodwill to them along the way.
Because the current appearance of the Red Rose is too miserable. The other half of the logo also fell off during the space leap. No one could have imagined that this poor starship, which looked like it had encountered an interstellar storm, was the famous Red Rose.
The star pirates looked at the young man sitting by the observation deck, not knowing whether to thank him for letting them return to the Capital Star again or to lament for the poor Red Rose.
Qing Yun looked out of the window with one hand on his cheek, and the other hand was playing with the scales he brought from the hub station. The aura around him is still dangerous, but it’s not like it was at the beginning, when it easily gave off an aura of destruction.
”
”
Yi Rui, who was following him, also noticed the change in the young man. Moreover, he noticed that since he got the scale at the hub station, the young man asked from time to time about His Majesty’s condition, such as the reason why His Majesty fell asleep, the duration of his slumber, as well as the current status of his body.
Yi Rui could not answer these situations because His Majesty’s situation is a secret of the entire empire. If it were not for the fact that His Majesty was asleep for too long and could not be concealed, I am afraid that even the news of His Majesty’s slumber would not be known to them.
Seeing that he was already about to enter the range of the Capital Star, Horst just handed over his forged pass and came to the observation deck on this side to ask about the docking place of the starship.
“Sir, the starship docking stations around the Capital Star are all available now. Which direction do you want to dock in?”
“Have you taken care of the matter of the pass?” Qing Yun raised his eyebrows and glanced at Horst. This person, as the leader of the Star Pirates, was indeed somewhat dishonest earlier, but I believe that after the last incident at the hub station, this person will no longer have other thoughts.
After all, one is quite lucky to be able to live clearly.
“Yes, sir. I am very familiar with the seals of all departments of the Capital Star, so I forged a pass.” Just as Qing Yun thought, Horst had put down all his arrogance.
The station master, who was made into an idiot by the youth, looked unremarkable at first glance, but Horst knew that the man was an S-class powerhouse like him. He did not expect that there would be no resistance at all in the hands of the youth.
Until now, Horst felt panic in his heart when he thought of the station master’s empty eyes.
Hearing Horst’s words, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Qing Yun’s eyes. He didn’t expect this star pirate leader to have this kind of craft, so it seems he was right to keep them.
Qing Yun raised his hand to pull up the map of the Capital Star on his Smart Brain. After a casual glance, he said to Horst, “Just dock at the place closest to the Gled’s house. Oh, right. The selection for the contract person is about to begin, sign me up for it.”
Near the Gled house?
All the star pirates who witnessed what happened at the last hub station pricked up their ears. They had heard the poor station master say that this young man was the famous top waste of the empire, Ilos Gled.
Now, they are going to stop near the Gled’s house. Could it be that the station master’s words are true?
Horst also thought of this aspect and asked cautiously, “I wonder what identity……sir is going to use to sign up?”
Qing Yun chuckled and tossed the scales in his hand, the corners of his mouth curled up in a sarcastic smile, “What other identity could it be? Naturally, it is with my original identity, the second young master of the Gled’s family, Ilos Gled.”
“……”
Horst was speechless. This humanoid beast is Ilos Gled? I don’t believe it!
The starship docked smoothly. Looking at the mansion of the Gled family not far away, Qing Yun took out the shiny family emblem and slowly kept it on his sleeve.
As he got off the starship, he ordered the group of star pirates behind him, “I’m going back to the Gled family. As for you guys, I believe you all have your own talents, so I want you to infiltrate various fields throughout the Capital Star and replace the important people in them.”
Hearing Qing Yun’s words, one second, these star pirates were lighting a candle for everyone in the Gled family, and the next second they were lamenting.
“You guys can’t do it?” Qing Yun turned back, his sharp gaze sweeping over each star pirate, “I don’t keep useless people under me. You can try to see what happens if you can’t do it, or you can certainly let me manipulate your bodies if you want.”
Instantly, the station master’s dumbfounded appearance flashed before all the star pirates. They could only nod hurriedly before watching the strange and ferocious youth leave the starship and fly off in a craft towards the Gled family.
At the Gled house, Mrs. Gled just welcomed the agent of Ilos to start the procedure of the handing over of the inheritance.
”
”
The agent elaborated on Ilos’ assets to Mrs. Gled: “Madam, according to the will of the previous head of the Gled family, whose life can only be sustained by medical equipment these days, he decided to give all his assets to Mr. Ilos Gled, the second young master of the Gled family, after his death.”
Hearing the agent’s words, Mrs. Gled’s face looked sad, but in fact, she fiercely squeezed the handkerchief in her hand that she used to wipe her tears.
Sure enough, she was right to kill that trash. The old man had already handed over his property to Ilos? What about her two sons? Will they become poor?
The agent added: “This includes Mr. Ilos’ mother, who also left her fortune to Mr. Ilos. Unfortunately, Mr. Ilos was caught in an interstellar storm while traveling on a wild planet, and his death has been confirmed. Therefore, all the properties in his name will now be transferred to you and Mr. Gled. If there are no comments, please sign it.”
The corners of Mrs. Gled’s mouth finally uncontrollably revealed a smile. In fact, no one knew as well as she did that Ilos was not involved in the interstellar storm at all, and it was Mrs. Gled who personally played the hand to ensure Ilos’ death.
As a result, she did not sleep for three whole nights and often would see the dead Ilos when she closed her eyes. But Mrs. Gled still has no regrets. She did this entirely for the sake of her two sons.
God knows what’s so great about that waste, Ilos. He obviously still doesn’t have a companion beast at the age of 20, but he is favored by the old Gled and even gave all his inheritance to that trash.
But now, these are all for her two sons!
Mrs. Gled consoled herself in her heart that as a mother, what she did was all right. Then, she took the paper from the agent’s hand and also sighed sadly, leaving crocodile tears: “Oh, poor Ilos, he is still so young. He should not have left this world so early. I hope His Majesty will bless our Ilos. He is a good boy. I have always treated him as my own son, even treating Phil a little worse than him……”
“Is that so? My dear madam, thanks to your prayers, I have broken free from the confinement of death and returned to your side.” A clear, crisp voice sounded from outside the door. Then, the blond youth who should have been dumped to the garbage star to rot away once again stepped into the door of the Gled family as usual.
When he came back this time, all the weakness and inferiority in him have been swept away. Under the sunlight from outside the door, the sea-blue eyes and brilliant golden hair were radiant and beautiful.
All of a sudden, Mrs. Gled’s scream, which had changed its tone, echoed through the halls of the Gled house: “You, you are Ilos?!”
At the same time, the list of candidates for His Majesty’s contract person this time was also published on the star network.
When people clicked on that list, they found the name of the empire’s number one waste, which just happened to fall at the end of the list, but still caused an uproar.
Ilos Gled? That trash, how did he have the face to participate in the selection of His Majesty’s contract person?
