Chapter 100: Soul Magic, Your Name Shall Be Little Gold!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Meng Lei had to admit that the old man’s advice made a lot of sense. Since it would be his army, of course, it had to obey his orders unconditionally and hit wherever he pointed without hesitation.

From this point, signing a master-servant contract with the little golden ant was undoubtedly the best choice. After giving it some consideration, Meng Lei decided.

Buzz!

A magical array shining with colorful lights rose up, and a great invisible force arrived, covering the little golden ant.

Squelch!

The little golden ant seemed to know what it was about to experience, and its eyes betrayed how terrified it was.

Suddenly, two golden light rays shot out of its eyes and fell on Meng Lei’s head.

Boom!

In the next instant, Meng Lei felt a buzzing rumble in his mind, and the environment around him changed. The tall, ancient trees and the lush bushes disappeared, and tall buildings, beautiful little gardens, and green meadows replaced them. It was the place of his dreams!

“This...”

A huge jolt coursed through Meng Lei’s body.

“Cola! Slow down! Slow down!”

A familiar voice sounded beside his ears. Meng Lei turned to look and saw that his wife was walking around the neighborhood with his 2-year-old son. The son was running, stumbling along, while his wife was chasing behind him.

“Cola!”

“Wife!”

Meng Lei’s eyes were filled with tears.

Suddenly, a dog ran right toward them. The son got very scared and kept moving into his mother’s arms, crying badly...

“Cola, don’t be afraid, Mom is here.”

His wife hurried to hold his son in her arms and comforted him with a gentle voice.

Meng Lei couldn’t suppress the emotions in his heart anymore. He hurriedly walked over, the longing in his heart flowing like a flood that overcame a dam.

But from the old man’s perspective, Meng Lei stood still in place, like he had gotten incapacitated. The look in his eyes was dull and blank.

Then, he suddenly waved a hand to remove the master-servant contract magic array and changed it to the magic array for an equal contract!

“Brat, what are you doing?” The old man was shocked. “Why are you changing the array at the last minute...”

But it was already too late. Two drops of blood rapidly appeared in the middle of the magic array, and then the two drops combined into one and separated into two again, entering the foreheads of Meng Lei and the little golden ant, respectively.

Buzz!

The contract was completed, and the magic array dissipated.

The scene around Meng Lei also changed drastically. The tall building disappeared, his wife and son disappeared, and he was back in the Magical Beast Forest.

“Cola? Wife? Where are you?”

Meng Lei leaped hard onto nothing.

“Brat, what the hell are you doing?” The old man’s voice sounded. “It was all good, so why did you change it to a magic array for an equal contract?”

Meng Lei’s whole body trembled. He looked around and then at the old man. He mumbled, “What was happening to me? What happened just now?”

“I understand now!” Ol’ Amos frowned deeply, and a look of regret appeared on his aged face. “It’s all my fault. Actually, I should have thought of it early on!”

“Ol’ President, what happened?” Meng Lei swung his head hard, feeling a bit of a headache.

“All this is its fault!” The old man pointed at the little golden ant on the floor.

“It?”

Meng Lei looked at the little golden ant but found that it was very weak, like a leaking balloon. Its head dwindled, and its eyes were dull. It seemed like its body was emptied.

Emptied? How did it get emptied out of nowhere?

Meng Lei frowned in great confusion.

“Brat, you were attacked by it!” The old man sighed. “Just now, you suddenly changed the contract array. I thought you decided to do it on a whim. Now it seems that this little fella used a spiritual attack and controlled you.”

“It controlled me?”

Meng Lei’s whole body shivered. He couldn’t help but recall the scene just now. That scene was too realistic and didn’t feel like an illusion at all.

“I really suffered its spiritual attack?”

“The Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ant Monarch is a non-elemental Magical Beast. If it has to be judged by elements, it is probably a strength- and spirit-elemental Magical Beast.”

The old man’s eyes had a complicated look. “It has amazingly potent strength, and when it reaches adulthood, it will be no weaker than Saint Domain Magical Beasts! But its most terrifying means of attack is still its spiritual attack, or... spiritual magic!”

“Spiritual magic?”

Meng Lei frowned slightly.

“Spiritual magic is very rare, so it’s not in the list of ten elements of magic. Nonetheless, spiritual magic does exist.” The old man explained, “Spiritual magic is a frightening type of magic because its attack target is the soul. Ordinary defense tactics are completely useless, and one can hardly guard against it.”

The old man looked at Meng Lei. “Such as just now, in the blink of an eye, you’ve suffered its spiritual attack, but you yourself were completely unaware!”

“Is it this terrible?”

Meng Lei couldn’t help but look toward the little golden ant on the ground.

“It’s beyond terrible!” Ol’ Amos sighed. “This little guy was just born, so its spiritual attack is still very immature. If it were an adult ant monarch standing before you, the split second just now would have been enough to shatter your soul from the shock and kill you right on the spot!”

“Sss...”

Meng Lei felt a chill coursing through his spine.

“The Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ant Monarch, as a Magical Beast of the spiritual element, is the most skilled at spiritual attacks. Even if this little guy was just born, it still affected you, a Great Ninth-Grade Magician, without you knowing. You can imagine how terrifying it will become after it reaches adulthood.”

Ol’ Amos shook his head slightly. “It was precisely based on such consideration that I made you sign a strict master-servant contract with it. It would be easier for you to control it in the future! I didn’t expect...

“But it’s alright! After singing an equal contract, it will be your equal partner in life and death. It can also bring you great advantages.”

“This little fella is actually so scary?”

Meng Lei didn’t know what to say.

Squeak~

The little golden ant recovered a little now, it lifted its head and looked at Meng Lei, with a complex look in its two big ruby-like eyes.

There was helplessness, unwillingness, relaxation, relief, and a slight trace of... intimacy?

It seemed to know very clearly that after signing an equal contract, it would become the closest companion of this entirely strange and unfamiliar human being in front of it.

It was beyond race boundaries!

Beyond blood relations!

Beyond the barrier of hatred!

From then on, they would seek mutual benefits and stay together in life and death.

“Little fella, you actually dared to use a spiritual attack on me!”

Meng Lei squatted down, looking at the innocent-looking little golden ant, his facial expression was also a bit conflicted. Because of what happened just now, he didn’t like this somewhat thorny little fellow much.

Squeak~

The little golden ant squealed again and stretched its head to rub against Meng Lei’s hand. Its big eyes showed affection, and affectionate emotions also showed in the depth of its soul.

“Sigh!”

After observing the obedient-looking little fellow, Meng Lei gradually got over it. Anyone, faced with the fate of being enslaved, would fight back with all their might. The little fellow using a spiritual attack on him was completely logical.

“Actually, this is good as well!”

Meng Lei touched the little golden ant’s head and suddenly smiled.

It is pretty good to have a completely obedient and loyal servant for sure. But isn’t it better to have a companion who shares all my successes and failures and has a great rapport with me?

Does this world lack zombie-like slaves?

No! Never! It can be done by one master-servant contract!

But what is the point of spending time with such a slave every day?

“I see that you are shiny with golden light like you’re covered with golden armor... Shall I call you Little Gold in the future?”

“Okay! Okay!”
