"Eh?" rlin was surprised to see her fall silent. "Why are you quiet, Lyserra? Do you agree or not?"
If Lyserra refused, he would simply give up. There was no point in persuading her if she was unwilling.
The bond between a contract spirit and its master should be ford honestly and sincerely. Only then could they grow stronger together.
Lyserra took a deep breath and gave a small nod.
"Very well. I accept your offer."
Her answer caught rlin off guard. He stared at Lyserra in astonishnt and confusion.
"What did you just say? You accepted it? I didn't hear wrong, did I?" He pricked his right and left ears one after the other.
Lyserra rolled her eyes and replied in an annoyed tone, "You didn't hear wrong. I agreed to beco your contract spirit."
"Hiss!" rlin sucked in a sharp breath. "So you finally gave in to ?"
He had been ready to give up if this stubborn dragon rejected him again. But unexpectedly, she accepted!
The thought of having a primordial dragon as his contract spirit instantly lifted his spirits.
Noticing his overly excited expression, Lyserra subconsciously smiled. She quickly suppressed it, though, and returned to her usual indifferent deanor, her face cold.
"Don't grin like that. Your face just looks disgusting," she said, her expression dripping with disdain.
rlin: "…"
It was the first ti he had been t with such sharp mockery. In his previous world, he hadn't been particularly handso, but he wasn't ugly either—just ordinary.
But rlin Clay was different. He had a striking face and a tall fra. Even though the body he now occupied was only eight years old, rlin Clay still looked charming.
Had it not been for his annoying behavior—all because of that cursed misfortune—the real rlin Clay would have been the idol of girls his age.
"[Master, Lyserra's gaze is really irritating. I feel sorry for you,]" the system said with a soft sigh.
If only it had hands, it would have patted rlin on the shoulder, as if to encourage him to keep his spirits up.
The corner of rlin's mouth twitched slightly. Sohow, the system's words sounded more like mockery than encouragent.
Shaking off his thoughts, he regained his composure. "Then, let's draw up the contract."
Lyserra gave a small nod, lowered her head, and leaned toward him.
rlin raised his right hand, touched her head, and closed his eyes, exclaiming, "Contract, activate!"
Buzz!
A golden book suddenly descended from the sky. It emitted a bright light, its pages slowly unfurling.
rlin stared at it, murmuring, 'So that's the Book of Wisdom, huh?'
As the na suggests, the Book of Wisdom is a book with its own consciousness. Although it could not speak, it was alive and could understand those who addressed it.
When a human and a spirit form a contract, the book appears as a witness.
By the way, the Book of Wisdom itself is also a spirit. Unlike ordinary spirits, it has no master.
It had existed since the ti of the first Holy King—King Arthur—who once made a contract with the Dragon of Light.
Whoosh!
A streak of light shot from the book, and in the next instant, white words appeared above rlin and Lyserra.
"Do you agree to enter into a contractual bond?"
rlin gave a small nod and replied loudly, "I agree!"
Lyserra nodded as well. "I agree too," she said.
Whoosh! Chapters first released on novel⚑fire
Golden light once again radiated from the book, filling the entire hall.
After a while, the light faded, and the Book of Wisdom vanished from sight.
'Has the contract been finalized?' rlin asked, a hint of doubt in his voice.
In the novel, the process of forming a contract between humans and spirits was never fully explained.
All that was ntioned was the existence of the Book of Wisdom and other related details, without directly describing how the contract took place.
At first, rlin thought the process would be difficult or complicated. But, to his surprise, it turned out to be surprisingly simple.
"[The process is indeed simple, Master. However, it becos difficult if the spirit you wish to contract rejects you. That's why I advised you to persuade Lyserra first before forming the contract,]" the system explained casually.
"So that's how it works…" rlin gave a small nod and then a thumbs up. "As expected of the system! You really are amazing!"
"[Ahem! Thank you for the complint, Master. I feel so embarrassed,]" the system said shyly.
System: "(⸝⸝⸝>﹏
