The Evil Lord's Wife Has Spirit Blood

Having the humanoid snake girl kneel in front of her, Michelle was shocked. "Why do you want me to be your master?" she asked after a while, her eyes piercing as she observed the young girl.

The snake girl looked up at Michelle. "Because you have special blood..." she answered as she looked at the bit of blood trickling down Michelle's lips.

Hearing that, Michelle lifted a brow. "Special? What do you mean by that?" she asked curiously.

But to her disappointment, the snake girl only shook her head. "I don't know. I can just feel that it's different from other humans' blood. Yours smells sweet..."

Michelle thought about it for a moment. "Do you want me to become your master in a way that you'll be my servant or my contracted beast?" she asked.

The snake girl smiled a bit. "Anything my master wants."

Getting such an answer, Michelle groaned in annoyance. "What's your name?" she asked as she pinched her nose-bridge.

Being asked that question, the snake girl lowered her head a bit. "I don't have a name..." she said, looking slightly sad.

Michelle wasn't the kind of person who would be moved by sympathy or touched by someone's sadness, but since the snake girl had already asked her to be her master, Michelle decided to name her. "Then from now on, your name shall be Mare as from Nightmare," she said after pondering over it for a while.

Hearing that, Mare's eyes lit up in excitement. "Does that mean that you will become my master?" she asked, her eyes shining like stars.

To that, Michelle only nodded a bit. "You decide whatever you want to be my subordinate or contractual beast," she said calmly as she walked towards the door.

Mare nodded and followed her out of the restaurant. When they were out, Mare had already decided. "Master, I want to be your contract beast. That way, I can always be with you, no matter the situation!"

Michelle nodded and then bit into her thumb, letting blood trickle out. Then, she pressed the finger against Mare's forehead and drew a mark with the blood. When she retracted her hand, the same mark appeared on her own forehead before both the one on her and the one on Mare's foreheads submerged into their skin. Then, they felt a connection form between each other.

Mare smiled widely and closed her eyes for a moment, sensing the connection between her and Michelle. Suddenly, she sensed that Michelle's blood was reacting towards something in her spatial bracelet. "Master, do you have a spirit beast with unique bloodline in your spatial bracelet?" she asked with a strange spark in her eyes.

Hearing that question, Michelle guessed that she probably meant the egg that she first bought and nodded a bit. "I don't know about its bloodline, but I have a strange big egg in my bracelet."

"What does it look like, master?"

"A big red egg with black lines all over it... It had a darkish aura, and when I saw it, I felt strange unrest in my heart which forced me to get it," Michelle said with a frown as she remembered the sensation she felt at the auction.

Mare's eyes flashed as she frowned deeply. "Master, we should go to a secluded place! The best would be outside the city!" she said direly.

Seeing Mare's big reaction, Michelle nodded and led Mare out of the city, to a small pond nearby the city. "Is this a good place?" she asked.

"Yes. Master, please take the egg out and drop your blood on it." Mare looked at Michelle with a serious frown.

Michelle nodded and with a wave of her hand, the huge egg appeared in front of her. It was so big that it reached her neck as she stood in front of it.

Biting into her thumb once again, she pressed it against the egg's shell and suddenly felt a painful pull as the egg started sucking on her blood, opening the wound on her thumb more and more so that the stream of blood could get bigger.

Michelle felt her head spin as she fell forward, ending up leaning against the egg as her consciousness slipped into the state where she was barely awake.

Mare worriedly looked at Michelle as the egg sucked at her blood and the black lines on it slowly turned white.

Suddenly, a huge blast blew Michelle away as the egg broke apart, revealing a very cute but quite big white fox with a black mark on her forehead.

The marl was in the shape of a snake coiled around a thorny rose and, it was the same as the mark that appeared on Mare and Michelle's foreheads when the contract between them was formed, and just like then, the mark appeared on Michelle's forehead just the same as it was on the fox's forehead.

Michelle got up from the ground and felt her body to be shockingly light. She wanted to step towards the white fox, but she suddenly felt a burning sensation in her nose, throat and lungs as she breathed in. The surrounding air suddenly felt scorching as she gasped for air, but that only causes the burning sensation within her lungs to worsen.

With each passing moment, the burning pain was getting worse and Michelle finally collapsed on the ground, the tips of her fingers and toes slowly getting wrapped in ice. The ice started appearing even on her hair.

Mare wanted to step in, but the white fox pinned her to the ground, not letting her get close to Michelle.

After a while, Michelle's whole body was covered by a layer of ice, and the moment that not even a small bit of her body remained untouched by the ice, the ice exploded into shards and the shards stabbed themselves into Michelle's body, but shockingly, no blood appeared, because the moment the shards touched Michelle's body, they melted into her skin.

When all the ice shards were gone, the burning sensation in Michelle's body disappeared, and she got up from the ground. At the same time, the white fox got off Mare, letting her rush to check on Michelle.

"Are you okay, master?" The moment Mare touched Michelle's body, she was shocked by the coldness she felt. "Master, why is your body so cold?!" she exclaimed in shock before looking at the white fox. "What did you do to master?!" she cried out in anger.

"She didn't do anything wrong. Don't worry, Mare!" Michelle patted her head gently. "My body was just alerted a bit since a contract was formed between me and the white fox, and I received a copy of her powers. To accommodate the cold power, my body had to change a bit." She calmly explained what happened as she walked towards the fox.
