“I didn't expect this kid to have such a proper attitude when admitting his mistake.”
In the face of Giles' sudden mention of the dispute this morning and the fact that he had bowed to her to thank her, although Hash's expression did not change much, her impression of Giles had still changed quite a bit.
“But since he grew up with Alice, I don't think his upbringing is bad.”
“If the violations he made while he was acting as the Gym Leader aren't especially serious, I can think of a way to help him deal with these problems for Alice's sake.”
“Hah… It seems like there'll be a lot of work to be done after I get back. My sleep time is going to be less than 12 hours again.”
After these thoughts arose in his mind, Hash yawned and waved off Giles, who was bowing and thanking him.
“Enough, you don't have to thank me for handling the dispute this morning. Your Starlux Gym Gym Leader Alice is not in the gym.”
“Even if you were there, it's not your place as a Gold-rank Beast Tamer to handle the huge scene where more than a hundred people gathered to cause trouble.”
“Besides, among the spirit beasts that you've contracted, is this Metal-feathered Eagle the strongest?”
After wrapping up the business matters he had to settle at Starlux Gym today, Hash realized that the bird-type spirit beast that Giles had contracted had a special form.
This metal-feathered eagle that was standing on both feet had two additional eagle claws on both sides of its chest.
Judging from the weak state of the two eagle claws, it was probably still not used to them.
However, judging from the luster of its feathers, its body was in a very healthy state.
It seems to be the type I've never seen before!
“Eh? What's with your Metal-feathered Eagle? Is it a newly-discovered spirit beast?”
Giles was pleased to see Hash raise the question about the Metal-feathered Eagle out of curiosity.
The reason why he had let the Metal-feathered Eagle out of the space was to attract Hash's attention.
In his opinion, since Ha Xi could sense his strength through her spiritual energy just now, with Hash's knowledge as an Elite Beast Tamer, she might be able to solve the problem of the Metal-feathered Eagle's incomplete evolution.
“A newly-discovered spirit beast? I think so?”
In the face of Hash's question, Giles also behaved like he didn't know much.
After all, he really could not determine the Metal-feathered Eagle's situation.
“However, the Metal-feathered Eagle's situation is related to its evolution failure.”
Upon saying this, Giles walked to the side of the Metal-feathered Eagle and picked up the two eagle claws by its chest, one on each side.
“These two eagle claws grew out after its evolution failed, but according to the message the spirit beast sent me, it still can't use its powers for these two eagle claws.”
Upon hearing Giles' words, Hash put away his curiosity and solemnly walked over to the Metal-feathered Eagle.
She raised her right hand and stopped in front of the Metal-feathered Eagle's chest. Then, her palm lit up with a faint green glow.
“Hmm? This is… Beast Cores? I think I understand now.”
After examining the situation inside the Metal-feathered Eagle's body through the spiritual energy released from her palm, Hash's expression became much more relaxed.
“It must have eaten a few beast cores before it evolved. As for how many there were, I can't be sure now because it absorbed a portion of them.”
“But it's precisely because those few beast cores have not completely been absorbed that its evolution is also incomplete. This is why its hands are powerless.”
After hearing Hash's deduction, Giles nodded slightly.
“Looks like my previous thoughts were right. The Metal-feathered Eagle's current situation is indeed an incomplete evolution.”
After confirming that his train of thoughts were correct, Giles asked Hash about the solution.
“Your Excellency, how should I help this Metal-feathered Eagle evolve successfully? Should I help it absorb the remaining spiritual energy from the beast cores?”
“Yeah…”
Hearing Giles' question, Hash pondered for a few seconds before suddenly turning around and patting the huge Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle behind her.
“Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle, use your 'Absorption Vine' on this Metal-feathered Eagle.”
Hash even specially added on to remind the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle to pay attention to the amount of strength it used, “Remember to be gentle. It's enough to wrap a slender vine around its abdomen.”
The Metal-feathered Eagle, which had been standing obediently at the side, could understand what Hash was saying.
When it heard that Hash had asked the huge Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle in front of it to attack it, the Metal-feathered Eagle subconsciously wanted to flap its wings and dodge.
Right now, it was still a spirit beast that had yet to evolve to the Gold rank. Facing the attack of this Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle that might have already stepped into the Legend rank, it was impossible for it to stand still and receive the attack.
Just as the Metal-feathered Eagle flapped its wings and was about to dodge the attack, a hand gently pressed down on its head.
“Don't worry, you'll be fine with me by your side.”
Hearing Giles, who was standing beside it, comforting it, and feeling Giles' touch, the Metal-feathered Eagle's emotions calmed down.
Yeah, if it's really dangerous, Giles will definitely protect me like before.
Realizing this, the Metal-feathered Eagle stopped flapping its wings and stood rooted to the spot.
Although one could tell from its constantly trembling feathers that it was still afraid of the huge Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle in front of it, under Giles' touch, it had no intention of dodging the 'Absorption Vines'
Seeing that the Metal-feathered Eagle's emotions were gradually stabilizing, Hash also looked at Giles in approval.
She could tell that the Metal-feathered Eagle was still instinctively afraid of high-ranking spirit beasts. However, it was probably out of trust towards Giles that it still chose to stand rooted to the spot in the face of the imminent attack.
The Metal-feathered Eagle's trust in Giles could actually force it to overcome its instinctive fear. The fact that Giles had shown this made his image in Hash's heart improve greatly.
One had to know that determining whether a Beast Tamer was qualified or not was not based on the strength of the Beast Tamer, but rather on the bonds between the Beast Tamer and the spirit beast that he had contracted.
This was because when Beast Tamers commanded the battle from outside the arena, they usually had more information than the spirit beasts in the arena. Therefore, whether the spirit beasts could overcome their instincts during the battle and choose to listen to the Beast Tamers' commands was especially important.
Victory and defeat were usually decided in that instant. If the Beast Tamer outside the arena seized the opportunity and gave the command, but the spirit beasts in the arena were unable to seize that fleeting opportunity due to their instincts, then no matter how strong this Beast Tamer was, he would still be considered a failure when it came to beast taming.
In Hash's opinion, Giles was a qualified Beast Tamer. However, he and his spirit beast were still too weak in terms of strength.
“Don't worry, although there will be a certain amount of pain, the pain is only momentary…”
Before Hash could finish speaking, the Tree-tailed Alligator Turtle pierced a vine towards the Metal-feathered Eagle at his signal.
The Metal-feathered Eagle clearly did not expect such a huge Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle to be able to use its skill so quickly.
Giles, on the other hand, sighed when he saw the vine stab the Metal-feathered Eagle. He looked helplessly at Hash.
“Your Excellency, there's no need for you to do this so abruptly, is there?”
“Although the Metal-feathered Eagle and I were already mentally prepared, we still couldn't react.”
“If I wait for you and the Metal-feathered Eagle to react, it will have to hurt for a while longer.”
Hash made an injecting gesture at Giles as she said, “In order to reduce the pain as much as possible, wouldn't the doctors try to divert your attention before giving you an injection?”
