Chapter 104: Chapter 104 - I Respect the Metal-Feathered Eagles Choice

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“It has been two weeks. Has the Metal-feathered Eagle not completely absorbed the remnant beast-core spiritual energy?”

Seeing Giles release the Metal-feathered Eagle from the space on the back of his hand, Hash couldn’t help but frown.

Hash had come to Starlux Gym two weeks ago and it was then that she had learned about Giles and the Metal-feathered Eagle.

Two weeks ago, due to the Metal-feathered Eagle losing control over its evolution, a spiritual storm was caused by the spiritual energy explosion.

The final outcome of that spiritual energy storm was that Giles had used his left arm to absorb a large amount of spiritual energy in order to save the Metal-feathered Eagle.

The Metal-feathered Eagle that Giles had saved from the storm of spiritual energy did not complete its evolution and powerful beast-core spiritual energy was left in its body.

Under these circumstances, even though Hash had received the mission from the Beast Tamer Association’s headquarters and planned to let Giles become the Acting Gym Leader of Starlux Gym, Giles and the Metal-feathered Eagle’s physical conditions were insufficient to support Starlux Gym.

Therefore, Hash had given Giles the Pulse Condensation Herb that could treat his left arm’s injuries and had also gotten the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle to put a vine belt on the Metal-feathered Eagle that could help it absorb spiritual energy.

Hash’s motive was to wait for a chance for Giles to rely on his own strength to legitimately become the Acting Gym Leader of Starlux Gym.

The day before yesterday, the Beast Tamer Association’s headquarters took the initiative to contact Hash and ask her if there was a suitable candidate for the Acting Gym Leader of Starlux Gym.

Hash seized this opportunity and fought for Giles to become the Acting Gym Leader of Starlux Gym.

However, to her surprise, the Metal-feathered Eagle had yet to completely absorb the remaining beast-core spiritual energy in its body.

It had been two weeks since she last came to Starlux Gym.

How powerful is the beast-core spiritual energy in the Metal-feathered Eagle’s body?

Frowning slightly, Hash walked over to the Metal-feathered Eagle and squatted down to examine the vine belt on its abdomen.

As Starlux Gym had temporarily stopped supplying spiritual energy, the Beast Tamers who came to borrow the training ground could only gather in the square outside Starlux Gym and wait.

However, while they were waiting, they had nearly forgotten the purpose of their visit today.

The reason was not because they had waited for too long.

Instead, it was because any one of the things that had happened in Starlux Gym this morning was enough to cause a stir in the nearby streets.

First, there was a rare case of the spiritual energy supply being cut off in Starlux Gym.

Then, it was the Elite Beast Tamer, Hash, and her Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle appearing in Starlux Gym.

The reason Hash was here was because the Second Young Lady of the Spirit Beast Chamber of Commerce, Annie, wanted to challenge Starlux Gym.

Hash was the umpire responsible for witnessing this challenge. Did this mean that after two weeks, Starlux Gym’s evaluation section would finally be opened to them?

If that was the case, the Beast Tamers in their vicinity would no longer have to go to the other Beast-taming gyms in the base city to have the strength of their spirit beasts evaluated.

After everyone realized this, every move that Hash and Giles made affected their mental activity.

However, as Hash and Giles were standing at the door of Starlux Gym, everyone was worried that their discussion might offend this Elite Beast Tamer.

Therefore, all of them chose to maintain a certain distance and stopped in the square ten meters away from the entrance of Starlux Gym.

It was also because of this that they could not really hear the content of Hash, Giles, and Annie’s discussion.

In addition, the people around them were also discussing, so they could only vaguely catch some words.

When Annie had helped Starlux Gym pay the bills and requested to challenge Giles, she had only said two sentences.

In the end, when they heard “Hash would witness this challenge”, they associated it with a bunch of things during their discussion.

Now, Giles and Hash’s actions had attracted their attention again.

“Eh? Why did Giles suddenly release a spirit beast from his tattoo space? What is Her Excellency Hash doing to that spirit beast?”

“Furthermore, the bird-type spirit beast that Giles released is a new spirit beast that I’ve never seen before. Is it a new species that Giles discovered some time ago?”

“Hey! Pals who are standing in front, did you hear what Her Excellency Hash said to Giles?”

“I only heard Her Excellency Hash say the words ‘prepare’ and ‘challenge’. If you want me to hear clearly later, you should shut your mouth and stop discussing.”

“Prepare and challenge? Doesn’t that mean that the problem of the spiritual energy supply has been resolved? Her Excellency Hash is already asking Giles to prepare for Annie’s challenge against Starlux Gym.”

“Okay, in that case, Sir Hasi must have told Giles not to use those powerful Gold-rank spirit beasts to accept the challenge. That’s why Giles released this new spirit beast that we’ve never seen before.”

“Giles’ new bird-type spirit beast should be at the Silver rank. Otherwise, Miss Annie wouldn’t be able to defeat Giles.”

“You people standing at the back, don’t talk nonsense if you didn’t hear it clearly. Miss Annie just said that under Giles’ guidance, she and her spirit beast have already broken through to the Gold rank.”

“Miss Annie and her spirit beast have both broken through to the Gold rank? No wonder she came to challenge Giles today. If that’s the case, it’s indeed impossible for Giles to let a Silver-rank spirit beast accept the challenge.”

“However, this bird-type spirit beast should have just broken through to the Gold rank. Otherwise, Giles would release his powerful Gold-rank spirit beasts from before to accept the challenge.”

“Oh! I get it! No wonder Her Excellency Hash said ‘prepare’ and ‘challenge’. She should be evaluating the strength of this bird-type spirit beast now in preparation for the upcoming challenge!”

“That makes sense! If that’s the case, then everything makes sense!”

“…”

Just as everyone was rejoicing over their speculation, Hash slowly stood up.

“Hu, it’s alright.”

After examining the vine belt, Hash’s brows relaxed and she heaved a sigh of relief.

“Giles, you don’t have to worry about the Metal-feathered Eagle anymore.”

“The remaining beast-core spiritual energy in its body has been completely absorbed by this vine belt.”

“In the next few days, as long as the Metal-feathered Eagle absorbs all the spiritual energy converted from the vine belt, it should be able to break through to the Gold rank steadily.”

At this point, Hash suddenly remembered the ability evaluation that was scheduled for today.

“Giles, out of consideration for the safety of the Metal-feathered Eagle, if you plan on postponing this ability evaluation for a few days, there’s actually no issues with that.”

“This is because the Beast Tamer Association’s headquarters, who proposed this ability evaluation, also know that the Metal-feathered Eagle is currently in the midst of an incomplete evolution.”

“Therefore, I can report directly to the higher-ups about the Metal-feathered Eagle about to break through to the Gold rank and get the Beast Tamer Association’s headquarters to change the rank of the Metal-feathered Eagle that’s registered in the records.”

“The Beast Tamer Association’s headquarters will not change the content of the ability evaluation because of this situation. We can carry out this ability evaluation after the Metal-feathered Eagle successfully breaks through to the Gold rank.”

“However, if you choose to accept Annie’s challenge today, I can use my spiritual energy to strengthen the Metal-feathered Eagle’s vine belt. You don’t have to worry about any accidents happening during the battle.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“So, Giles, the decision is yours now. Do you plan to postpone it by a few days until the Metal-feathered Eagle breaks through to the Gold rank, or do you want to accept Annie’s challenge today?”

“No, Sister Hash, the decision doesn’t lie with me.”

Giles shook his head slightly. Then, with a gentle expression, he reached out his right hand and gently stroked the Metal-feathered Eagle’s head.

“The one accepting the challenge is the Metal-feathered Eagle. The one who is about to break through to the Gold rank is also the Metal-feathered Eagle.”

“Therefore, I think the decision lies in its hands. I will respect its choice.”

“If it chooses to accept the challenge and fight, I will fight alongside it and give it my all in the face of Annie’s challenge.”

“If it chooses to break through to the Gold rank first, I will also ensure its safety and let it successfully break through to the Gold rank.”
