Chapter Thirty-Seven: A New Companion
On the ship to a distant land, Renault leaned quietly on the side of the ship, looking out at the sea level. The salty sea breeze ruffled his hair and the hem of his clothes, setting off the youthful demeanor.
"After all, I left." Renault sighed faintly, trying not to remember the recent parting. He picked up his key pouch and held it up to his eyes, watching them look at them in distraction.
"Are you looking at things and thinking about people, I didn't expect the boys nowadays to be so twisted." In a flash, O'Rewin appeared before him.
"Don't show up and say something strange." Renault glanced at him, and then asked carefully:
"You told me earlier that the contract between us has changed a little, what the hell is going on?" When it comes to his connection with the Star Spirits, Renault is extremely cautious.
"It's nothing, probably because our previous actions moved the heavens, and now we have some preferential treatment for summoning. Do you see the timepiece on the back of your hand, that's the key to the new summon mode. ”
Renault lowered his head and looked at the clock-shaped tattoo on the back of his hand, unlike a real clock, it had no hands and only seven scales, which were marked by the words of the Star Spirit Realm, which looked delicate and mysterious.
"A new method of summoning – the Watchful Summon. The 'Bell of the Brand' on the back of your hand will refresh once a week, giving you 7 hours of summoning time each time, which means that you can summon us for 7 hours per week, an unlimited number of times. O'Rewin explained.
"But you have to keep in mind that with this way of summoning, we can only exert a little stronger power than ordinary star spirits, and it is definitely impossible to use divine power to fight against people like Calistto did before. And if you summon more than one Divine Star Spirit at the same time, the timepiece consumed will be multiplied several times, so you must keep this in mind! O'Rewin admonished solemnly.
Renault nodded, already thinking about how to use the magic and how to fight the enemy after the update. Suddenly, he raised his head suddenly: "In that case, isn't it a waste of my summoning time that you run out so casually?" Now every minute of your combat effectiveness is good, so if you have nothing to do, just slip back quickly. ”
"Don't be so ruthless, I haven't seen each other for a long time, isn't it right to contact the feelings?"
"You don't come, don't think I don't know, the speed of time in the Star Spirit Realm is different from the Human World, and the seven years on my side have only passed less than a month for you, and you just want to run out to play." Renault immediately debunked O'Rewin's careful thoughts.
O'Rewin didn't have the slightest embarrassment on his face, and he didn't know why, after returning again, Renault felt that O'Revan's personality was completely different from before, and his face was getting thicker and thicker......
"Tsk, it seems that you have indeed grown up this time, you would not have considered this at all before, you know, you were at that time......" O'Rewin looked at him with a distant gaze, his face was full of relief, and he fell into the memory, but was immediately interrupted by Renault.
"It's useless to delay time, you've already told me these words three times, now go back to the Star Spirit Realm for me right away!" Renault roared at him.
"Alas, young people nowadays, there is really no sympathy at all. The Star Spirit Realm is only that big in total, and if you keep it there, you will die of boredom. O'Rewin looked around nostalgically before reluctantly returning to the Astral Realm, where Renault was covered in black lines.
Is this still the tough and reliable Orewin, why does the painting style seem to be different......
But he soon stopped dwelling on it, because he had more important things to do. He returned to his room, took out a brocade box from his bosom, and his gaze softened when it fell on it. He gently opened the box, and a key that shimmered with silver lay quietly, the magnificent magic pattern shining in the sunlight.
This is a parting gift from Master Qiao, which is said to have been collected by an old friend of his who is obsessed with magic and deliberately asked for it for himself.
Renault's heart warmed, pinched the key, slowly injected magic, and opened his mouth to chant softly: "In the name of the stars of the sky, open it, the door of Ursa Minor!" ”
"Ding Dong~"
As the light flickered, a small shadow gradually became clear.
Only when the light and mist dissipated did Renault see the true face of this star spirit. But...... It seemed to be a little different from what he had imagined.
The star spirit in front of him was only the size of Renault's arm, his head was almost as big as his body, and his short limbs were lying on his belly softly, sleeping peacefully.
Judging from the appearance, this guy is obviously not humanoid, just like the name of the Star Palace, he is a cute little bear, but unlike ordinary bears, this guy is only black and white on his body, and he has a light blue bib tied around his neck. At the moment, the little guy was sleeping soundly, and from time to time he was humming happily.
"So...... It turns out that Ursa Major and Ursa Minor have nothing to do with each other. Renault stared at the little guy for a long time and finally came to a conclusion.
Originally, in myths and legends, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor were a mother and son, so Renaud was very excited after getting the key to Ursa Minor, after all, Calistto's strength was in her own eyes, and if it was her son, he would naturally not be mediocre.
However, the scene in front of him seemed to be different from what he imagined, and Renaud knew that there were several star spirits that had many doppelgangers occupying the same name at the same time, such as the big-headed dolls of Canis Minor. Perhaps, the same is true for Ursa Minor?
He had an urge to wake up the little thing and ask for clarification, but seeing that the little one slept so soundly, he didn't know why he had a feeling of reluctance to disturb him.
"Huh", the light flashed again, and Olevin came uninvited again.
Before Renault could speak, he made the first move, he didn't know where to find a conch, and blew it at the bear's ear, the snot bubble on the bear's nose burst open, and then looked around with a frightened expression, his expression was extremely dazed.
"Don't stare at me." O'Rewin innocently spread his hands at the glaring Renault, "This guy has a passive magic that will make all the creatures that see it unconsciously feel good about it, otherwise why would you suddenly be so entangled." But it's useless to me, who is also a star spirit, I'm really helping you. See you later! With that, he vanished.
Renault looked at the cute little black and white bear in front of him again, and his heart was also secretly dark, that tangled feeling really disappeared, I didn't expect this little thing, can it unconsciously affect other people's minds, and really can't judge anyone from their appearance.
"You...... What is it called? Can we sign a contract? After thinking about it, Renault was the first to speak.
Little Bear tilted his head to look at him, opened his mouth and said the first sentence since they met:
"That...... Is there anything to eat? ”
