And between that, one turtle cut through the wind of the cold Devildom as he walked slowly one step at a time.
Bbook- Bboo-bbook-.
Bbookbbook, the turtle of the lonely Devildom, was staring at something with the gaze of a savage beast that was staring at its prey.
âThere, thereâs definitely a delicious devil spirit gra.s.s over there bbook!â
Pak Ppak-!
Bbookbbookâs front feet quickly tore through the gra.s.s thicket as he dug up the cold ground of the Devildom.
Whoong-.
As he did so, he could hear a low resonance from within there.
âAs expected! Iâve found it bbook!â
Bbookbbook, who became excited, used his front feet quickly and dug out the devil spirit gra.s.s with skilled abilities.
The leaves of the devil spirit gra.s.s were delicious, but because the thick roots were more appetizing, he needed to dig it out carefully.
Chomp- Chomp-.
Bbookbbook, who finished everything deliciously starting from the purple leaves, began to carefully eat up the roots of the devil spirit gra.s.s.
âBbook This smell!â
The sweet roots of the devil spirit gra.s.s melted in his mouth.
Based on the thickness and scent, the devil spirit gra.s.s that had gone into Bbookbbookâs mouth right now was for sure top-grade stuff that had survived over 100 years.
And as if it had been waiting, a system message popped up in front of Bbookbbookâs eyes.
Ring-.
Sure enough, the devil spirit gra.s.s that Bbookbbook consumed was a high-ranking devil spirit gra.s.s.
âBbook, I still can see the legendary-rank devil spirit gra.s.s that I had eaten a couple of days ago bbook. If I just eat a couple more of those, I feel like Iâll be able to fill up my Turtle Spirit Training Value bbook!â
The legendary-rank devil spirit gra.s.s raised up Bbookbbookâs Turtle Spirit Level up a whopping 17.5% at once.
Bbookbbook could not forget about that sweetness.
âNow, if I just consume some more sacred herbs for a couple more days, I should be able to hit the maximum level with my turtle spirit bbook!â
The higher his turtle spirit level, the more Bbookbbook felt the energy that was inside of him grow stronger.
âI will for sure evolve into a turtle thatâs cooler than Bbakbbak bbook!â
To be honest, in the beginning, it wasnât like the system messages popped up in front of Bbookbbookâs eyes or anything like that just because he ate the sacred herbs.
However, as Bbookbbookâs turtle spirit grew stronger, Bbookbbook had continuously changed.
The change that came to Bbookbbook first was the fact that he was able to speak, and the change that came to him second was that he was able to check the system messages and information window related to his turtle spirit.
And Bbookbbook, who checked the information window related to his turtle spirit, was able to discover an incredible truth.
âEvolution! Iâm going to evolve bbook!â
Bbookbbook was a very intelligent animal, but there was no way for him to even know about the information that hadnât appeared in these system messages.
As that was the case, the task that Bbookbbook could do for now was just to continuously raise the proficiency and level of his turtle spirit.
âI will become a handsome turtle and crop Bbakbbakâs feathers bbook!â
Bbookbbook momentarily remembered Karceus, who was one of his teammates.
From Bbookbbookâs perspective, the Familiar with the most handsome outer appearance was G.o.d Dragon Karceus.
âBboo-ook! I want to become as handsome as Karceus bbook!â
And as he remembered the Familiars that were his teammates, he suddenly missed Ianâs embrace.
âMy wicked owner is probably doing well, right bbook? He does make me do a lot, but Still, especially today, I miss the owner guy bbook.â
Could he have thrown away his hatred towards Ian?
Lately, Bbookbbook missed the fierce battles that he faced with Ian.
âAh, still, the one sweet meatball after a 17-hour battle was truly delicious bbook.â
The time he had spent away from his owner was two months.
The evil thing called âglamorizing the pastâ began to fabricate Bbookbbookâs memories.
âBut, lately, the owner guy doesnât even send a summoning message bbook. Thereâs no way that heâs forgotten about me, right bbook?â
Just then, while Bbookbbook was having such heartrending thoughts, an unexpected message popped up in front of Bbookbbookâs eyes.
It was Ianâs summoning message that had come for the first time in over a month.
âBbook!â
Aside from being extremely happy, Bbookbbook, who almost made the mistake of accepting the summon immediately, calmed himself down.
âBbook! If I accept the summon here right away, I will become too easy of a turtle bbook.â
Bbookbbook, who calmed down his excited heart, rejected Ianâs summoning with a coy expression.
âI donât want to bbook! Iâm not going to go bbook!â
Bbookbbook, who glanced at the message that popped up again, wore a restless expression as he began to stare that the message window.
âThereâs no way that heâs just going to summon me once and give up, right bbook? The owner will probably want to see me for sure as well bbook!â
However, even as a minute, 2 minutes pa.s.sed by, Ianâs summoning message did not come again.
Bbookbbook, who became nervous, felt like the devil spirit gra.s.s that had gone into his stomach was not digesting properly.
âOwner guy, summon me quickly again bbook!â
Had about another 5 minutes pa.s.sed like that?
Just before sorrowful tears dropped from Bbookbbookâs two large eyes, Ianâs message that he had been waiting for came again.
Bbookbbook couldnât hold back and nodded his head quickly.
âBbook! I will go bbook!â
And the moment that Bbookbbook finished what he said, his body began to shine a bright white light as he disappeared into the air.
Whoong-.
Ian stared at the silhouette of the big-headed turtle that had appeared in front of him along with a ray of white light as he mumbled.
âThis punk, acting like youâre all that.â
Whiiing-!
A big-headed turtle appeared along with a low resonant sound.
Ian crouched down in front of Bbookbbook and stroked his head as he asked.
âBbookbbook, have you been well?â
And as soon as he saw Ian, Bbookbbookâs two eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with tears.
âBbook! Owner, I missed you bbook!â
It was a touching moment that was reminiscent of a dramatic reunion of a separated family due to war.
Different from Bbookbbook, who was emotional, Ian couldnât help but be fl.u.s.tered.
âYo, Bbookbbook. Since when were you able to talk?â This was because this was the first time Ian was seeing Bbookbbook talk.
âI donât know about that bbook. However, I was suddenly able to talk bbook!â
Ian momentarily thought to himself.
âWhat the h.e.l.l? By any chance, did Bbookbbook evolve in the meanwhile?â
With sharp eyes, Ian scanned over Bbookbbook.
However, to say that he had evolved, Bbookbbook was in a form where not one thing had changed.
âHmmâ
Ian opened Bbookbbookâs information window.
âSince thereâs a chance that something has changedâ
However, no matter how much he looked, there was not one thing that had changed about Bbookbbook to the point it was truly fascinating.
âWhat the h.e.l.l?â
Either way, as the fact that Bbookbbook was able to talk wasnât a bad thing, Ian momentarily put aside his thoughts about that.
âThis punk, either way, itâs good to see you again after a long time. Youâve rested well in the meantime, right?â
For a moment, Bbookbbookâs body stiffened like ice.
âBbook? I wasnât able to rest much bbook. To be honest, Iâm tired now as well bbook. Since Iâve seen your face, owner, it looks like Iâll have to go back bbook.â
With one hand, Ian grasped onto the sh.e.l.l of Bbookbbook, who began to crawl towards somewhere and pulled him straight back.
Bbook- Bbook- Bb.o.o.bbook-
As if he was being dragged to a slaughterhouse, Bbookbbook sent a pitiful gaze to Ly.
However, even Ly, who was a long-time friend of his, looked away from Bbookbbookâs gaze.
âGrr-! Iâm glad that Iâll be able to battle with Bbookbbook again.â
This time he looked at Bbakbbak, but Bbakbbak outsmarted him instead.
âMy cool friend has returned. Iâm happy that a fellow soldier that can share the pain of working all night has formed.â
In front of the eyes of Bbookbbook, who wore a tearful expression, Ian wagged his finger as he crouched down.
âYou may have come whenever you wished, but you wonât be able to go whenever you wish.â
At Ianâs words, Bbookbbook made a small protest.
âEven when I came, I didnât come whenever I wished bbook! I was only able to come because you summoned me bbook!â
At his ill-mannered Familiar that talked back to him, Ian punished him with a light clout.
Thud-.
âQuiet. Either way, since youâve come for the first time in a while, letâs work now, Bbookbbook.â
âBboo-ookâ
Bbookbbook sat down for a moment with gloomy eyes before he suddenly seemed to have remembered something as he knocked on Ianâs bag.
âOwner, then, before I work, at least give me a meatball bbook. I feel like I need to at least eat that for me to have the strength to work bbook!â
At that, Ian smirked as he opened his inventory.
And for the first time in a while, he pulled out a drug meatball that was saved in one corner of his inventory and handed it to Bbookbbook.
âSure, Iâll be a little generous. Eat this and cheer up, Bbookbbook.â
At the expenditure of Ian, who gave him a whopping three meatb.a.l.l.s, Bbookbbook was touched.
âBboo-ook-! As expected from our cool owner bbook!â
Bbookbbook began to crazily chow down on the meatb.a.l.l.s, which he was eating for the first time in a whopping two months.
The stimulating flavour of this meatball that ran along his tongue starting from the tip made Bbookbbook ecstatic.
âBboo-oo-ook, Iâm happy bbook!â
While looking at Bbookbbook, who was a simpleton to no ends, Ian burst out laughing, when just then.
Kaka, who was watching the two from the back, flew over to them and stared at Bbookbbook.
âOwner, is that idiot-like turtleâs name Bbookbbook?â
âYeah, heâs Bbookbbook.â
For a moment, the gaze of Bbookbbook, who was eating a meatball, sharply turned towards Kaka.
Glare-!
And Kaka, who received that intense(?) gaze, flinched.
â?â At that, Ian wore a fl.u.s.tered expression.
âYo, Kaka, no way, youâre scared of him? Well With your stats, youâll probably kick the bucket in one go even if you were bitten by him.â
Kaka, who momentarily stared at Bbookbbook with a dazed expression, shook his head as he turned his gaze towards Ian.
âThatâs not it, owner.â
At Kakaâs serious words, which he had never heard before, Ian reflexively asked again.
âHuh? What is it then?â
Kakaâs words continued.
âThat turtle is definitely!â
As Kaka paused for a moment to take a breath, all gazes that were around him focused on his mouth.
âThe last piece to the seven legends!â
At Kakaâs out-of-the-blue words, Ian wore puzzled expression once again as he asked back.
âWhat? What exactly are the seven legends?â
However the response to Ianâs question came not from Kaka, but a different place.
âThat I will tell you.â
Ianâs gaze moved towards the place where the voice came from, and in that place, there was none other than Kaizar sitting.
âHmm? You know what the seven legends are?â
Kaizar nodded his head.
âThatâs right. And to be honest, itâs not just me, but even you, Ian, have heard of it before.â
Ianâs curiosity grew even more.
âEh? Whatâs that?â
Kaizarâs gaze slowly turned towards Karceus.
âThe seven legends that the wad of cotton is talking about is most likely about the Legend of the Seven G.o.d Dragons that Karceus is affiliated with. If that punkâs words are right, it means that Bbookbbook is of the same bloodlines as one of the remaining six G.o.d Dragons excluding Karceus.â
All eyes that were in the surrounding rounded.
And Bbakbbak, who was excitedly listening to the conversation right next to them, tilted his head as he mumbled.
âHmm? Thatâs a little weird Bbookbbook is definitely one of our kin.â
The party, who had formed even more curiosity at Kaizarâs words, turned their heads towards Kaka, who was the source of âBbookbbookâs G.o.d Dragon Theoryâ, once again.
At that, Kaka slowly shook his head as he continued his words.
âKaizarâs words are Half right, half wrong.â
