2 : New World and Zel
~3rd POV~
A boy around 11 years old is seen sleeping leaning against a tree in the forest.
The 'Starburst' forest has many Spirit Beasts, it's just that they rarely attack the outside area because they live in the forest.
The boy has an appearance that can be considered very handsome even though he is only 11 years old. he had hair as white as snow and smooth skin.
He wore a basic blue outfit with various additions of other colors, he also wore white trousers and black shoes.
This child was of course Tian Ren who had just been reincarnated.
This was not Transmigration because Tian Ren's body was completely different from his previous body even though he had not gone through the birth process.
Slowly he opened his eyes revealing blue eyes as clear as the ocean. When he woke up, he started to stand up and looked around.
“So I've arrived in this world, huh? My mind is very calm right now which is probably a gift too,” muttered Tian Ren while feeling his limbs.
Because regardless of how long he had been in [The Void] he had begun to miss the feeling of moving limbs.
After that was done, he realized that the forest he was now in was close to Shrek Academy as well as the start of the Plot.
It's just that 1 year from now, at this time maybe Yuhao is still in the Mansion and still suffering.
Tian Ren couldn't help him because he had no status, his father was a duke. And also Tian Ren doesn't have strength yet even though he has a Guardian.
And also he doesn't know the direction to the Mansion.
“I automatically awakened the Spirit and also I'm already Rank 10…. Time to find the Spirit Beast for my first Ring” said Tian Ren while walking to find the Spirit Beast.
But soon he stopped and decided to train first to get used to it and be ready to fight later.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
It had been one month since Tian Ren had lived in that new world, and was used to the body he had.
In that month Tian Ren did many things such as buying many needed items such as cooking utensils, sleeping and clothes.
Even though Tian Ren could sleep in a good inn but he chose to sleep in the forest. The reason is because he gets used to it later on an adventure.
During that time he also became proficient with the Elucidator sword, due to the [Heavenly Talent] he had the learning process became faster.
His current body can also be said to be very strong and not tired quickly. Even the process of collecting Stamina is fairly fast.
It turned out that all of Tian Ren's Talents were upgrading to the best place.
Tian Ren had not fought Spirit Beasts, only fought normal beasts while testing their strength.
Currently he doesn't have a Ring which makes him unable to cast Skills yet.
He can be said to be smart in acting which keeps him from getting into trouble even though he has no power.
The guardian he asked for had not appeared, nor had he ordered him to come out.
Currently Tian Ren was up in the tree after he ate the grilled fish he made himself.
"I want to see what my Guardian looks like," said Tian Ren who then ordered his Guardian to appear.
And after that suddenly appeared a black flying dragon in front of Tian Ren. He saw Tian Ren like a family that he had to protect.
"Can you talk?" Tian Ren asked the Dragon, if it was the same as 'Puck' then he could speak.
{I can Ren, I'm glad if you want to meet me}
"Sorry for calling you..... May I know your name?" Ren said with a smile.
{I am known as the 'Black Dragon Emperor, Bahamuth' you may give me a nickname, Ren}
"From now on I will call you Zel.... Even though it has nothing to do with your real name" said Tian Ren.
{Okay... Right now what do you want to do, Ren?}
Then Zel who was in front of Tian Ren flew over to his right shoulder and sat there.
Zel's current form was small, roughly the size of a 'Puck' so he could sit on Tian Ren's shoulder.
"I want to find a Spirit Beast for my first Ring.... But I'm sure it will be very dangerous, so I need your help," said Tian Ren.
{Don't worry, I'll protect you.... I won't make you hurt, Ren}
"Thanks, Zel" Tian Ren said with a smile.
Tian Ren knew that Zel's power was very strong. From the nickname he has 'Black Dragon Emperror' alone is very intimidating.
Not to mention Tian Ren asked that he was the same as 'Puck' who had the Title 'Beast Of End'
'Puck' will destroy the world if 'Emilia' dies and there is little that can stop him.
Thus Tian Ren was sure that Zel also had the nickname 'Beast of End' as well. It meant that if Tian Ren died, Zel would be furious and destroy the World.
The [World System] probably let it go knowing that Tian Ren would not die that easily.
Tian Ren also knew that Zel's form that he saw was not his true form. If it actually existed it would probably be huge.
Zel couldn't be seen by others, because Tian Ren only wanted him to be seen by her. Imagine if someone saw he had a little Dragon and that person was evil.
Tian Ren didn't want to cause unimportant trouble, perhaps only people he trusted would be able to see it.
"Zel, what can you do? I'm sure you are very strong" Tian Ren asked because he wanted to know Zel's strength.
{My strength is centered on Darkness and Lightning Affinity, you have a high Affinity for Lightning so I will make that attack stronger}
Hmm.... Zel, do you think I can fight a 1000+ year old Spirit Beast and absorb its Ring? Tian Ren said.
Even though he was confident that he could absorb it, he wasn't sure he could beat it yet.
{100% chance, I will also help you because in this form I can also use a bit of my power}
"Then let's look for the Spirit" said Tian Ren who was excited.
Then he jumped from the tree, and after hitting the ground he immediately ran into the forest to look for Spirit Beasts.
Perhaps what was good for him would be a Spirit Beast with a Lightning Affinity for his [Heavenly Lightning Sword] Spirit.
And the Spirit [Celestial Mystic Eye] might be a Spirit Beast related to Mental or Illusion.
Tian Ren kept running because he had yet to find a Spirit Beast that was suitable for him while Zel was flying beside him.
Until a while later he saw a sleeping Spirit Beast. And that Spirit Beast took the form of a snake.
{Ren, I believe that Spirit Beast is suitable for your second Spirit, that Spirit Beast has 2000 years Age}
"I understand" said Tian Ren who approached the Snake who was still sleeping.
As Tian Ren drew closer, the [Purple Lightning Snake] opened its eyes and saw someone approaching.
That made him immediately alert and ready to fight, the reason he didn't attack immediately was because the Snake could feel something inside Tian Ren's body
And that Something he shouldn't disturb, so until Tian Ren attacked he wouldn't attack.
"I feel that he won't attack before I attack" said Tian Ren who was currently in front of the [Purple Lightning Snake]
{He can feel a bit of me, his instincts tell you that you are not a bad person and have something inside you}
"I really don't have the desire to kill the snake, but there is no other way to get the Ring because I'm sure this Spirit Beast will not agree if I want to talk" said Tian Ren.
He knew that Zel's state made the Spirit Beasts fearful, and also because Tian Ren's own aura was very calming.
That aura might just be a blessing for someone chosen by the world. Besides that the Spirit Beast felt fear due to Zel's slight presence.
"Maybe It won't hurt to speak first, he hasn't attacked me either" said Tian Ren who walked closer to the Snake.
Tian Ren left no openings as he approached because the [Purple Lightning Snake] in front of him could strike anytime.
He can also directly summon his Spirit Or Elucidator to attack the Snake.
