Chapter 655: Gone
The staff member took the ID card, scanned it, and confirmed that the photo matched the person before asking:
"Which familiar's information would you like to modify?"
"Blazing Star Hound", Qiao Sang said. "My Blazing Star Hound has evolved, and I want to change its name to Flame Kiru."
Blazing Star Hound? What familiar is this? And naming it Flame Kiru? Can familiars be named just like that... The staff member glanced at the computer and indeed saw a familiar with the species name Blazing Star Hound. His gaze moved downward, and he was taken aback.
Fire and Psychic Type Advanced Pet Beast?
Does our Supernest even have this familiar?
The staff member's fingers moved, and the screen returned to the Beastmaster's information page.
Blue Star... Longguo Yuhua Region... Qiao Sang... Female... 16 years old...
So she's not from our Supernest... The staff member smiled and continued with the procedure:
"Please summon the familiar whose information you want to change."
Qiao Sang was taken aback: "Isn't it supposed to be in a designated room for large familiars to be summoned?"
This time, it was the staff member's turn to be surprised.
He had been so focused on the fact that the girl in front of him was from another planet that he hadn't considered that the familiar she wanted to change information for was a High-Class Beast Companion.
Evolution into a General-Class Pet Beast is indeed too large to be summoned here...
Wait, she's only 16 years old?!
The staff member realized something and looked back at the computer.
She is 16 years old!
At 16, she already has a General-Class Beast Companion?!
After a brief moment of confusion and shock, the staff member remembered Qiao Sang's earlier statement: "I want to name it Flame Kiru."
Naming...
The staff member opened the Blazing Star Hound's information while speaking: "Please wait a moment."
The Beastmaster Center's database contains the most comprehensive familiar information in the entire star system.
Soon, the entire evolution chain of the Blazing Star Hound was displayed.
After the Blazing Star Hound, there was a blank space with no information.
The staff member's mind buzzed with shock, as if a thunderbolt had struck.
He stood up abruptly and said to Qiao Sang with a respectful tone:
"Please wait a moment longer. I need to consult the supervisor about the naming."
"Sure", Qiao Sang nodded.
When Fangy evolved into Flame Listener and Blazing Star Hound before, she was in the middle of a match, and with a bit of investigation, it was clear that she was the first Beastmaster to cultivate this new form, so the naming process wasn't particularly troublesome.
However, this was the Supernest, and others were not familiar with the entire evolution chain of Fangflare, so she understood the complexity of the procedure.
After all, once named, it would be registered in the Beastmaster Union's database.
...
The staff member quickly crossed the office area and hurried to the supervisor's office.
He knocked on the door with a rapid "knock knock."
"Come in", a voice responded from inside.
The staff member pushed the door open and said eagerly:
"Supervisor, a Beastmaster from Blue Star has come to modify a familiar's information!"
The supervisor looked up and said calmly, "So what if someone from another planet is here to change information? Just do it. Why are you telling me?"
"But the familiar she wants to change information for seems to be a new form, and there's no information in the database", the staff member said.
The supervisor glanced at him:
"You mean she wants to name it?"
"Yes", the staff member nodded.
"Check if she is the first Beastmaster to cultivate this new form", the supervisor said casually. "If she is, she has the right to name it."
"But..." the staff member hesitated, "She's from Blue Star, and she's only 16 years old. The familiar information she wants to change is from Advanced to General-Class. I'm not sure if I should proceed with the registration without confirmation."
"Manager, could you please come and verify this?"
The office fell silent for a moment.
After a few seconds, the manager asked, "You said she's only 16 years old?"
The staff member nodded.
"And the familiar information is being changed from Advanced to General-Class?" the manager asked again.
"Yes!" the staff member nodded vigorously.
The manager suddenly stood up, put on his coat, and quickly walked toward the office area.
Seeing this, the staff member's face lit up, and he hurried to follow.
"This is the Beastmaster who wants to rename her familiar", the staff member said as they approached workstation 73.
The manager indeed saw a 16-year-old girl. He smiled at her through the window and then carefully examined the documents.
The more he read, the more astonished he became.
Sixteen years old, four familiars, and one of them is the new form, Steel Guardian, which only recently appeared in their Supernest?!
The manager was speechless for a few seconds, then looked at the girl through the window with an expression that seemed to ask, "Are you even human?"
Qiao Sang was confused by this look.
The manager quickly realized his mistake and composed himself. "Please follow me."
He pointed to the left and started walking.
Qiao Sang followed him. After a few minutes, they arrived at a large open space, similar to a regular Open Training Ground.
"Please summon the familiar whose information you want to change", the manager said to Qiao Sang.
"Sure", Qiao Sang nodded and began forming hand seals.
The Amber Star Array lit up, and soon, Fangy, with her massive Flame Wings and a height of over six meters, appeared within the array.
"Fangy!"
Fangy took a couple of steps back, lowered her head, and affectionately rubbed her head against her Beastmaster.
The manager looked up at the familiar and let out a surprised "Huh?" before his expression turned to shock. "This is your familiar?"
Qiao Sang was taken aback and turned to ask, "You know her?"
The manager blurted out, "There was a news report this morning about a 'mysterious familiar emerging from a volcano.' Didn't you know? It was from Kotya Volcano."
It's on the news... If anyone sees Fangy, they'll know she's the one who took the Lava Beast. Could they also guess that I have Ghostfire Slurry? Qiao Sang's heart skipped a beat, but she smiled and said, "I don't usually watch the news much."
The manager added, "You can check it online now if you want."
Qiao Sang politely declined, "I'll check it later. Let's focus on changing the information first."
"Agreed", the manager nodded.
It took nearly an hour to confirm that Fangy's current form was the first one to evolve from a Blazing Star Hound. After completing the necessary procedures, the name change was officially approved.
Qiao Sang put away her updated ID card and also renewed Fangy's ID Bracelet. Since Flame Kiru's information was already in the database, the process was smooth.
The manager accompanied her the entire time, drawing curious glances from the other staff members.
After receiving the ID Bracelet, Qiao Sang bid farewell to the smiling manager and went to the self-service machine to scan her identity card and Beastmaster Badge, register, pay the fee, and get her number.
There were clearly fewer C-Class Beastmasters than D-Class, and there were only a few people waiting in front of her.
Unlike previous evaluations, the C-Class Beastmaster evaluation was held outdoors.
Qiao Sang confirmed the evaluation location, followed the signs, and opened her mobile phone to browse the news.
There was no news about the volcano on the trending list.
Qiao Sang typed in the keywords "Kotya Volcano mysterious familiar", and the relevant news articles appeared.
【Kotya Volcano Reveals Mysterious Familiar, Possibly a Legendary One!】
There was a title... Qiao Sang scrolled down to see if there was any mention of the Lava Beast or Ghostfire Slurry, but there wasn't.
Qiao Sang breathed a small sigh of relief and started reading the comments:
["One minute, I want detailed information on this familiar!"]
["It's not that, the photos are so clear, how can you not figure out what kind of familiar it is?"]
["I was there, I saw the whole thing. The familiar was initially white-furred, but after it charged into the volcano and came back out, it not only evolved but also turned red-furred."]
["I have a complete video. This familiar looks a bit like a Dragon-type, but it's probably not the same white-furred canine familiar."]
["Look closely, the white-furred canine familiar actually had Flame Wings, they were just too small to be noticeable. These two familiars are likely from the same evolution chain. The one that came out of the volcano only has wings that look Dragon-type, but in other aspects, it doesn't really resemble one."]
["Exactly, have you ever seen a Dragon-type Beast Companion covered in fur?"]
["Use your brains, this familiar survived a volcanic eruption unscathed, it's clearly a Fire-type familiar. There's a video that clearly shows it teleported there. A Fire-type, Psychic, and Dragon-type familiar all at once? That's highly unlikely."]
["I think it looks like a legendary familiar, it's definitely cool."]
["Forget it, this familiar is definitely not a legendary one. It has a Beastmaster, I saw it, and it was a kid."]
["Ha, a kid, why don't you just say it's yours?"]
Qiao Sang read through the comments for a while and saw that everyone was mostly discussing Fangy, with no mention of anything else. She felt relieved.
She wasn't really afraid of anything; she just didn't want to deal with the trouble if the Beastmasters who wanted the Ghostfire Slurry came looking for her.
That was all.
Qiao Sang put her phone back in her pocket and followed the signs to the C-Class Beastmaster evaluation arena.
It was a place similar to an open training ground, but used for evaluations.
Qiao Sang handed her number paper to the staff member who was preventing unauthorized personnel from entering.
The staff member, who had been intently watching the battle, checked the number paper and confirmed the information was correct before letting Qiao Sang in.
Qiao Sang casually found a seat.
Although there weren't many people taking the C-Class Beastmaster evaluation, the evaluation process took much longer than the D-Rank Beastmaster Exam.
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker appeared and took out the Beast Identifier, aiming it at the familiar in the arena.
Qiao Sang didn't stop her. One of the people in the arena was the evaluator, so it was good to know the familiar's information.
As the Beast Identifier reported in a voice like Treasure Seeker's, Qiao Sang heard a greeting:
"Hi~"
Qiao Sang turned her head and saw a red-haired woman in her thirties.
"Hello", Qiao Sang replied politely.
"Are you here to watch a family member's evaluation?" the woman asked with a smile.
"No, I'm here for my own evaluation", Qiao Sang said.
The woman fell silent.
What a strange person, why did she suddenly stop talking... Qiao Sang didn't think much of it and continued to watch the arena.
At that moment, she felt her phone vibrate.
Qiao Sang took it out and saw a message from "SS-Rank Yin Dynasty Pearl":
["Did you go to Kotya Volcano yesterday?"]
Qiao Sang paused for a moment, then typed her reply:
["Yes"]
