Ban beckoned for Eva to sit at a lotus position with her combat form.
He then gives her the defective Beast Core for her to absorb it using the sa thod they used before.
Eva placed the defective Beast Core in her tiny lap. The defective Beast Core was smaller than the Lord Grade Beast Core she absorbed before but it's still massive in size. Eva could only place it on her lap and it almost covered her stomach area.
Ban went behind Eva and also sat in the sa position as her.
"Let's start, little Eva!" He said.
They both closed their eyes at the sa ti as they started chanting the mantra that the Book of Techniques has provided.
Before, the System said that Ban only needs to cheer little Eva to absorb and evolve successfully but he chooses to do it together with her now.
He thought that the System might have just been ssing with him at that ti.
And just as he expected, the mont he decided that the System interjected that he's doing the right thing. Apparently, it also helps Eva to absorb the Beast Core faster this way.
However, unlike before, Ban could tell that the absorption rate has definitely lowered.
Previously, Eva only needed around two hours before the Lord Grade Beast Core cracked and beca useless. However, it has already been an hour, and the defective Beast Core on her lap still shows no sign of cracking.
Ban was very concerned at this as he thought that it was sohow affected due to him also doing the sa action.
[Wrong! The reason the previous instance was swift was that your Contracted Beast was undergoing her evolution. Normally, it would take days or even weeks for one to be able to completely absorb a Beast Core and your current speed of absorption is even greater than normal with the assistance of the [Skill] Harmonious Music!] The System said.
Ban was taken aback by what the System had said, but he could only accept it as he could not do anything about it anyways.
Ban closed his eyes again and continued chanting the mantra with Eva.
A few hours had passed in the blink of an eye and Eva and Ban were so absorbed with their chanting that they didn't notice that their absorption rate had actually beco even faster.
Unbeknownst to the both of them, they actually reached a state called, 'Perfect Harmony'. It is a state where the Summoner and his or her Summon beca in perfect sync with each other.
A very rare state that only a handful of Summoners can achieve.
At this point, the Summoner and the Summon can benefit from what the other one is doing. In Ban and Eva's case, it was only Eva who was trying to absorb the Beast Core before while Ban only wanted to recite and do the mantra along with her.
However, due to the Perfect Harmony State that they achieved, Ban would now benefit from Eva's absorption. Even Ban who was deep in ditation and recitation felt that sothing was entering or sothing was getting slowly absorbed by his body.
After a few hours of absorption and Perfect Harmony, Ban and Eva finally opened their eyes as they felt that the absorption had already stopped and they could no longer absorb anything.
Ban clenched his fist and he sohow felt that he had beco stronger than before even though his rank stayed the sa at F-Apprentice Rank. Eva also did the sa and felt the sa way.
Ban took a glance at the defective Beast Core and he could clearly tell that its color had beco pale compared to before. Although there were no signs of cracking, Ban still felt that Eva made progress due to its color fading away.
There was blinking '!' at the corner of Ban's eyes and just like before, he imdiately inspected what it was.
[Congratulations! You have attained the state, Perfect Harmony with your Contracted Beast, Eva!
-Combat Efficiency has doubled!
-Training Efficiency has doubled!
-Cultivating Efficiency has doubled!
Can be achieved again by moving in sync with your Contracted Beast Eva for so ti.
You and your Contracted Beast, Eva, will share the sa pain and the sa gain.
Duration: Until the Perfect Harmony state is broken.

Ban scrunched his eyebrows in confusion while reading the row of text in front of his eyes.
He accessed his status profile and see if anything had changed but it still looks the sa.
"Is this the reason why I felt stronger?" He uttered in a low voice. He felt grief after knowing that he might have taken a portion of what Eva was about to absorb.
However, the System hurriedly explained that it is not the case and the energy he absorbed ca from the Beast Core and not from Eva.
"Sigh! So I unknowingly absorbed a portion of it? That's even worse…"
Ban could only sigh in defeat and accept the truth. It was good and all that he beca stronger, but he thought it was quite a waste this way.
He will be able to rank up along with Eva due to her title. So the sooner Eva ranks up towards E-Elite Rank, the sooner he would also achieve the sa height.
Ban could only ignore it and as he thought of never doing it again in the future. However, the System imdiately reprimanded him that what he's about to do was idiotic.
[The Host is an Idiot! Do you think there are no repercussions of ascending ranks without properly consolidating it? The System recomnds the Host to continue doing the sa to stabilize his Rank before thinking of ascending with the help of the Contracted Beast, Eva's, title.]
Ban was taken aback by the System's words and when he thought deeply about it, he could not help but nod his head in agreent.
He did not think about it before as he was so focused on gaining strength and ascending his rank that he forgot what it would imply if his Rank kept on increasing without him being able to have the ti to get used to it first.
