Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 214 - 208 Magic Pet System

Chapter 214: Chapter 208 Magic Pet System

Looking at the unicorn that had come under her, kneeling obediently, and rubbing against her in a fawning manner, Eve was slightly taken aback.

However, she soon understood the reason.

If the elves created by the World Tree were the Children of Nature, then unicorns were nature’s darlings.

They were incredibly close to nature and possessed extraordinary perception.

Although Eve donned a facade, her soul was unique, a genuine Divine Soul.

Even if it was just a sliver of Divine Soul borrowed through the Soul Storage Orb, under the influence of the Divine Soul, her body naturally had a higher affinity with nature than other players’ bodies.

Great Druids could easily gain the favor of Demon Beasts like unicorns. On one hand, they had strong communication abilities, and on the other hand, they had an incredible nature affinity.

Eve possessed both of these traits, even stronger than a Great Druid.

After all… the Druid class was created by the World Tree.

Perhaps the unicorn couldn’t see through Eve’s true identity, but it didn’t stop showing affinity toward her.

Seeing the unicorn, which had shifted from a wary and guarded state to one of extreme obedience, the onlooking players were stunned.

Even Alice and Sarandir had their mouths agape in disbelief.

“Wasn’t it said that unicorns were very proud? What’s with this fawning behavior?”

Looking at the white magical creature trying to curry favor, Demacia couldn’t help but speak.

Alice opened her mouth, unsure of how to answer.

In truth, she was baffled by the unicorn’s behavior too.

Although Alice had heard that those exceedingly powerful Great Druids or a rare few naturally lucky individuals could easily gain a unicorn’s favor, it usually just meant gaining its affection and approval.

Witnessing a unicorn display such fawning closeness was something she heard for the first time and saw for the first time!

She glanced at the unicorn, then at the unfamiliar Chosen One in front of her.

Finally, she hesitantly said,

“Possibly… this Chosen One is the kind of lucky individual I mentioned, and… one among the few.”

Lucky individual?

The players exchanged glances.

First, the Great Druid was ruled out.

So, in other words… this player was friendly, sincere, pure-hearted, and loved nature?

*What a joke… They were players after all!*

They checked the player’s information in front of them—

[ID: Wind]

[Class: Druid]

[Level: 18]

This level was just medium among veteran players.

Many players were unfamiliar with this ID, finding the face quite strange…

Li Mu, however, had a slight epiphany:

“It’s you, Wind, I’ve met you a few times in the Mengmeng Committee.”

So, it was a life-oriented player from the Mengmeng Committee!

The other few showed expressions of realization since they didn’t recognize him.

Many members of the Mengmeng Committee, those life-oriented players, rarely went out to fight. So, with some, like the ones led by Demacia who loved to venture out, they were not really familiar.

And then, the players got excited again:

“How did you do it? Why is it so close to you?”

Faced with the players’ expectant eyes, Eve coughed twice and said,

“Perhaps… like Alice said, I’m just lucky.”

“…”

Alice gave Eve a strange look, words on the tip of her tongue but unspoken.

She hadn’t noticed due to not observing carefully just now. It was only after closely examining did she suddenly find something different about the player favored by the unicorn.

After focusing her attention on the individual, she was surprised to find herself beginning to develop inexplicable affection toward them from deep within her heart.

Thinking about it, she hesitantly said,

“I think… maybe it’s because this Chosen One possesses a relatively high natural affinity.”

“Natural affinity?”

The other players were slightly puzzled.

“Exactly, elves are born with high natural affinity. After becoming a Druid, the natural affinity enhances further. One major reason the Great Druids can easily get along with Demon Beasts is because of their extraordinary natural affinity.”

“So… this Chosen One is likely exceptionally gifted in natural affinity. High natural affinity grants strong talent in the path of the Druid.”

Alice explained.

“Then… is there a way to see this natural affinity?”

Li Mu asked excitedly.

“It can only be sensed.”

Alice shook her head.

“So… it’s a hidden attribute then.”

The players came to a realization.

They then looked at Eve, faces filled with envy:

“How great! To have a hidden attribute!”

Hearing Alice’s explanation, Eve opted to remain silent.

*In a sense, Alice wasn’t wrong.*

*However, Eve was not just high in natural affinity. She represented nature itself!*

Eve lowered her head, looking at the unicorn with its pure blue eyes gazing at her.

Thinking it over, she reached out her hand and cast a basic healing spell…

The unicorn did not resist, and as a soft green glow passed over it, its injuries gradually dissipated.

Then, the unicorn got up gently, standing again.

Though it wasn’t yet mature, standing up, it was almost as tall as Eve.

As it snorted softly, it rubbed affectionately against Eve’s face…

Such a scene left the players gaping, a little envious yet deeply admiring within…

“Wow… does it suck up like this?”

“So envious!”

“If I’d known, I’d have chosen Druid too.”

“Forget it, Druids have weak attack power.”

“But they can acquire Demon Beasts!”

“Brother Mu is also a Druid, but it didn’t work out for him this time. Ultimately… it’s still luck!”

“I can only say… envious.”

Watching such a fawning unicorn, Alice also hesitated, then gave Eve a slight nod:

“Congratulations, Chosen One, you have gained the unicorn’s recognition.”

She glanced at the fawning creature, smiling:

“If you sign a contract with it, you will become true partners.”

Contract, huh…

Eve had a fleeting thought, recalling the related information.

In Segis World, some special Demon Beasts would choose to sign contracts with other sentient beings to become partners.

These contracts typically affected the soul, having either equal or unequal forms.

Generally, those initiated by Demon Beasts were equal contracts—this type sped up the growth for both parties with no life threats involved.

Unequal contracts were often coerced by some sentient beings onto Demon Beasts. These also sped up growth but had a stronger effect on the contractor’s growth and bound the Demon Beast’s life to the contractor.

A side note, Black Dragon Mairrel was currently under an unequal master-servant contract with Eve.

But Mairrel also benefitted, growing rapidly and showing signs of advancing, thanks to the contract.

However, elves and unicorns always signed equal contracts.

Regardless of whether it was equal or unequal, contracts acted upon the soul.

Players, whose consciousness merely descended, could not sign contracts.

But, when the unicorn showed its closeness, Eve had a sudden epiphany—

Since players’ souls didn’t descend into this world, making them unable to sign contracts with Demon Beasts, however…

*What if they took another approach…*

Ultimately, soul contracts were a form of connection between two life forms.

Since they were links, could she perhaps modify the contract’s target slightly?

Players couldn’t sign soul contracts, but their consciousness could connect with the game system Eve had created.

And the game system was a network based on Eve herself, essentially having something in common with Soul Power…

If that was the case…

So, why not alter the soul in the contract to be with Eve’s game system instead?

In other words…

Let Demon Beasts sign contracts with Eve’s game system!

Players had their unique conscious coordinates within the game system, so… by integrating a consciousness coordinate unique to a player, it would be equivalent to enabling the player to sign a contract with the Demon Beast indirectly!

Realizing this, Eve’s eyes lit up slightly.

*This was an excellent idea, why hadn’t she thought of it before?*

If feasible, as long as she taught the players how to form the designed contracts, they could search for Demon Beasts to sign contracts themselves!

While players’ physical bodies could perish, their consciousness coordinates wouldn’t disappear, ensuring the contract wouldn’t vanish either.

And with the contracted Demon Beasts linked to the game system, it would directly reflect in the mount system, materializing the Demon Beast’s specific information and making it a part of the mount system!

*This resembled enabling believers of nature to join the game system Eve designed through the faith channel, but it connected Demon Beasts through contracts instead of faith channels!*

Moreover, the same approach applied when Demon Beasts actively sought to sign contracts with players.

Upon sensing the energy fluctuations of a Demon Beast actively signing, the game system could substitute the player to sign, with the player simply providing consciousness coordinates through system assistance, thereby securing the contract!

*Even… for Demon Beasts that signed such contracts, Eve could leverage the game system to extract half of the growth feedback between them and the player, reallocating some power back to the game system, indirectly benefiting Eve herself!*

*This… was another fantastic way to reap gains indirectly!*

Of course… the essence of such a contract didn’t act upon the soul, so it could only establish equal contracts.

But… it sufficed!

Moreover, this directly perfected the mount system, eliminating the need for Eve to align specific races into the mount system correspondingly.

Players could entirely rely on their preferences to seek cooperative Demon Beasts, forming their unique mount contracts!

*No!*

This transcended mounts, this was Magic Pets!

A Magic Pet System!

It would fully replace the incomplete mount system with a more flexible Magic Pet System!

Eve’s heart gradually surged with excitement.

Having thought this through, she turned to the unicorn, preparing to use it as her first attempt.

“Would you like to form a contract with me?”

She spoke to the little creature looking at her with an innocent gaze, speaking enticingly.
