The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth



In a dark room, two boys could be seen; The boy with platinum-colored hair put his hand on the shoulder of the green-haired boy in front of him. "Lax, it's time for you to make a contract, but before that, I am thinking of improving your physique to make it better suited for assassin class. It will be painful, but you will gain affinity with the shadow element, guaranteeing your ability to awaken it."

"Are you ready for this transformation?" he asked, looking at the boy before him.

The green-haired boy nodded.

"Great; rather than sit, I will start the process." The green-haired boy sat down in a meditative pose, ready to experience pain; A cold hand touched his back. A small black-colored orb appeared from the hand and entered Lax's body; it released branches and started transforming the body of the

The boy cried in agony as his body started to transform at the cellular level. Rishi looked at his condition and injected 'life force' into him, trying to heal his body. This painful process continued for an hour, and Lax had to use multiple potions to survive.

The changes could be seen with the naked eye; Lax's body has become thin. A blackish miasma surrounded his body; It was all the impurities in his body. His light green hair has become darker, and his gray eyes have also become darker.

The changes inside were even more significant; multiple small holes appeared over his skin that disappeared the next moment. A core was also formed inside his body that stored a large amount of shadow energy; The boy looked at himself and observed that his ability to control mana had increased significantly. His senses have also evolved; he would not believe if someone told him that a human could grant power equal to a low-level blessing, he would have not believed.

He bowed to the person in front of him respectfully, Rishi said, "It's time for you to make a contract with a shadow demon; first go take a shower. We will start the next step then."

Rishi looked at his two pendants; He first touched one, and a beast appeared before him. It was a beast with a human hand instead of legs, and it had one big violet-colored eye on its forehead; It flapped its wings cutely and sat on Rishi's shoulder.

He found This beast in the 'Forest of Shadows,' which he had only recently recovered. It was an epic Stage 2 beast; He patted its head and said, "I am about to summon a shadow demon; you will help me communicate with him. Also, make sure he doesn't run away."

He then started releasing a large amount of shadow energy; the energy released created a lot of darkness to cover the room. The Shadow Beast also created a barrier to prevent the presence of the demon from being released; He then started pouring his shadow energy into the demon pendant while chanting a spell.

A small portal appeared in front of him, from which black smoke started releasing. The smoke gathered to form a small figure. It looked like a small kid; it had red-colored eyes and two small horns. Its hands were long, while its lower body was like a cigarette.

Rishi felt a presence that made even him feel fear and confusion; He used his will and resisted that effect. The shadow demon looked at the area around it with eyes filled with curiosity; Rishi asked his Contract Beast to come with him.

The shadow demon was strangely calm and composed. Rishi sighed, 'It looks like the Shadow Demon King had already informed them what to do; this is good; it saves a lot of time.' 

Like any other kid, the demon started looking at everything with curiosity. Lax appeared again after some time; He saw the strange creature and started shivering. His whole body shivered as he fell to his knees. Rishi looked at it and now realized the terror of demons, the Shadow Demon King he had summoned was not even able to use 1% of his strength due to restrictions.

The shadow demon approached Lax and started laughing, rotating him; Rishi looked at it and knew the shadow demon was looking down on him. This was not good news; he said, "You can do it, Lax."

Lax clenched his knuckles and slowly stood up; He could feel the pain, but he ignored it and looked at the creature before him. He then did something unexpected: he approached the shadow demon and stood before him, looking at him in the eyes.

Even Rishi was confused—how could a person who was shivering in fear be able to recover in the next moment? He then realized the reason; unlike him, it was the first time that Lax had felt the presence of higher beings. As he got used to it, he recovered, and Rishi's praise motivated him further.

The shadow demon laughed before he started releasing his power; He was about to attack when a small eye appeared above him, and the next moment, his body froze. The beast on Rishi's shoulder looked at him and chirped, warning him to behave.

Rishi brought the pendant and asked Lax and Shadow Demon to put a drop of their blood on the top; They both did so, and the pendant shone with a red glow. A mark appeared on the heads of both of them; it was similar to the pendant: a circle with a pentagram inside it and a demon skull print at the center.

The marks disappeared, and the shadow demon turned into smoke and entered the shadow of Lax. The next moment, Lax cried and vomited; His body transformed again, and black blood was released from his eyes and mouth. His body was torn apart as a thick layer of black smoke surrounded it, and his eyes opened, releasing a bright red color.

He pulled his hair back in pain; He struggled, but nothing changed. It continued for fifteen minutes before Lax finally stopped shaking. His original hairs have fallen, and instead of them, new black hairs have taken their place; His face has also changed completely from his previous self.

He opened his eyes, and his red eyes revealed a black triangle pattern inside them; He looked at himself and started laughing like a madman. Rishi looked at the thing he had created; He was still analyzing if he should stop here, but he tapped his heart, controlling himself. He was being forced by the Tiwari clan; if he didn't get his revenge, then they would make his life more miserable.

In the next few days, he evolved Lax's contract beast to Elite Grade and gave Lax suitable weapons and money before asking him to leave and only return after advancing to Elite Stage.
