Chapter 76: What’s with the Injury on Your Left Arm?

“Is this an Elite Beast Tamer’s and an Epic-rank spirit beast’s skilful control and application of skills?”

After hearing Hash’s explanation for using the ‘Absorption Vines’ , Giles, who was surprised, subconsciously lamented.

Although he could roughly guess Hash’s motive for getting the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle to use the ‘Absorption Vines’ through his understanding of the ‘absorption of vines’ skill, with his limited combat experience, he had to admit in his heart that Hash’s understanding and planning with the ‘Absorption Vines’ as well as the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle’s control and usage of its skill were areas that he had completely not touched on before.

However, Giles wasn’t disappointed or discouraged by this. On the contrary, he was filled with joy and excitement.

This was because he realized that on the road to becoming the “World’s Number One Beast Tamer”, there was another senior worth learning from.

“My little tricks are just child’s play.”

Listening to Giles’ subconscious sigh, Hash shrugged nonchalantly.

In her opinion, this was indeed not a big deal.

She just happened to know a skill that could help the Metal-feathered Eagle.

“I’m just an Elite Beast Tamer that was newly promoted this year. Compared to the seniors before me, I’m just a primary school student.”

Elite Beast Tamers are only primary school students. In that case, wouldn’t I, a Beast Tamer who isn’t even at the Gold rank, be equivalent to a kindergartener?

Hearing Hash’s analogy, Giles couldn’t help but sweat. He didn’t voice out the thoughts that had popped up in his mind.

However, he also realized how far away he was from his target.

At the thought of this, Giles stood up. Then, he lowered his head and bowed to thank Hash once again, “Your Excellency, thank you very much for your help.”

Seeing this, the Metal-feathered Eagle, who was lying at the side, also got up and imitated Giles in bowing and thanking the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle.

“It’s nothing. You can put the Metal-feathered Eagle into your tattoo space to let it recuperate first.”

“Today, let’s just stabilize the spiritual energy in its body first. Don’t let it absorb the spiritual energy in a hurry.”

Seeing that everything was more or less settled, Hash yawned and wanted to climb onto the back of the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle to continue sleeping.

However, as she turned around, she suddenly noticed Giles’ left hand, whose eagle claw tattoo was glowing as it recalled the Metal-feathered Eagle.

“This is… gauze?”

After Giles retrieved the Metal-feathered Eagle, Hash went over to Giles and looked at his left hand in confusion.

“Your left arm… How did you get your entire left arm injured?”

Hash gently gripped Giles’ left wrist. When she raised Giles’ left arm, she saw the bandage hidden under Giles’ long sleeve of his shirt.

“Huh? What’s with the spiritual energy flow in your body? Why is it so imbalanced?”

After grabbing Giles’ wrist, Hash was surprised to find that the spiritual energy contained in Giles’ left arm was more than the spiritual energy in Giles’ body.

Moreover, the main source of the spiritual energy she sensed from Giles’ body seemed to be from his left arm.

“This was caused when the Metal-feathered Eagle’s evolution went out of control due to the spiritual energy turbulence.”

Giles hadn’t expected Hash, who had been planning on leaving, to suddenly lift up his bandaged left hand.

Furthermore, based on what Hash said, she had specially come to ask about it because she realized that the spiritual energy flow in his left hand and body was imbalanced.

“At that time, it was unable to continue absorbing the spiritual energy that had gone out of control during the rampage. Therefore, I directly helped it absorb a portion of it through the spirit beast tattoo that was connected to our contract.”

Listening to Giles’ indifferent words about such a dangerous act, Hash and Rex looked at each other. They could both see the shock in each other’s eyes.

Although they had never personally experienced their spirit beast losing control due to a spiritual energy turbulence, they had witnessed it happening many times.

The terrifying ‘spiritual energy storm’ was something that even the body of a spirit beast could not withstand. There were many spirit beasts that had been severely injured because they had lost control of their evolution.

Even if the Metal-feathered Eagle evolved from Silver-rank to Gold-rank, the ‘spiritual energy storm’ caused by its evolution losing control was not something that a Beast Tamer like Giles, who was not even at the Gold rank, could withstand.

That was why Hash and Rex were shocked.

In their understanding, if Giles really helped the Metal-feathered Eagle absorb a portion of the spiritual energy from the rampage, even if Giles’ internal organs were not directly torn to pieces by the violent spiritual energy, his left arm that was absorbing the spiritual energy would have exploded from the violent spiritual energy.

However, what Hash and Rex did not know was that the Metal-feathered Eagle had not actually started evolving from the Silver rank, but from the Bronze rank.

Therefore, when it was preparing to break through to the Gold rank, a portion of its spiritual energy had in fact already been exhausted, and the ‘spiritual energy storm’ it triggered was not that large.

In addition, after Giles’ left arm absorbed the spirit energy, it was also treated by the Little Fox in a timely manner.

With the Little Fox’s spiritual energy as a guide, the violent spiritual energy didn’t continue to destroy Giles’ body.

However, a large portion of the spiritual energy was still stuck in Giles’ left arm.

If it was not dealt with properly, it would also be a high-risk hidden danger.

“I think that’s probably why the Metal-feathered Eagle’s evolution is incomplete.”

With a grave expression, Hash looked from Giles’ wrist, which she was holding, down to his arm.

There were several dark red traces on the gauze along Giles’ left arm. They were left behind after the blood from the wound had dried.

“When spirit beasts lose control of their evolution due to the spiritual energy turbulence, the final outcome would be a failure in their evolution. Moreover, more than half of the spirit beasts would be severely injured because of the violent spiritual energy after their evolution failed.

“Although the Metal-feathered Eagle had also lost control of its evolution due to the spiritual energy explosion, Giles had helped it absorb a portion of the spiritual energy, so it was able to remain unharmed. In fact, a rare sign of an incomplete evolution had even appeared.”

Hash, who kept analyzing, stared at the bloodstained gauze on Giles’ left arm. Her gaze was no longer one of admiration, but of respect.

She had also seen the consequences of people intervening in the ‘spiritual energy storm’ many times. The Beast Tamers who interfered would undoubtedly end up with serious injuries along with their spirit beasts in the end.

Therefore, she had nothing but respect for Giles, who was willing to risk his life for a spirit beast.

As Hash was almost half a head shorter than Giles, coupled with the fact that she had been looking up from Giles’ wrist from the start, she quickly saw Giles’ handsome face when she raised her head. Giles, who was listening to Hash’s continuous analysis, also had his head slightly lowered.

The two of them stared at each other, and the atmosphere momentarily fell silent.

Until Giles awkwardly raised the question in his mind, “Uh… Your Excellency Hash, so what special treatment method is there for my left arm?”
