《The Legend Of Rave [ Hiatus ]》Chapter 13 : Bond
Advertisement
Note : Surprise Chapter guys ! I made it yesterday actually because I really loved this part and it pushes me on to write.
Oh and i posted a poll, i am currently deciding on that, i just want your opinion on it.
The Dire Wolf leader’s health is now down to 3%, In all honesty. It's death was certain
But it stood up again.
“ Does it still want to fight ? “
Rave’s stamina has hit 0. He truly exerted everything he had on this battle and he is unable to move anymore.
The White Fox Leader also stood up and came closer to Rave.
“ Are they going to pull of their last strike ?! “
The 3 girls thought
They were about to go and help Rave when..
Contradictory to everyone's thought, the two bites their own skin and took out a small ball. The ball from the dire wolf is grayish in color, whilst the fox’s ball is pure white.
They threw the ball to Rave, moving their jaw up and down and nodded their head up. As if gesturing Rave to eat it.
“ What's this ? Identify ! “
Dire Wolf VazJack’s Monster Core
The Core of VazJack, the elite Dire Wolf.
Should one eat it, he/she would gain 1 ability of VazJack and a small part of his power
White Fox Shyuukara’s Monster Core
The Core of Shyuukara, the elite white wolf.
Should one eat it, he/she would gain 1 ability of the Shyuukara and a small part of her power
“ Wha….Monster Core ! I didn't think it truly exist ! “
Named monsters, usually an elite or higher. Developed a small ball made by their own power. If an individual eats it, they will gain one of the monster’s skill and their strength.
However, the monster must be willingly giving it. If taken by force the core will crush upon contact.
This rarely occurred and usually only happen when the monster sense it's end and gifted their successor their power, because if they took out their core. They would die moments later.
“ Are you sure ? Why ? Why me ? “
The Leaders only shook their heads confirming their decisions
*GRAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUU* *WAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU*
The Dire Wolf leader, VazJack has howled it's last howl. It has acknowledged your strength and admitted it's lost.
For it's admittance to your strength, a part of their power has been transferred to you.
You Level has risen by 2 ! Strength rises by 6 point! Health rises by 300 point ! Fame rises by 20 point !
The White Fox leader, Shyuukara has howled it's last howl. It has acknowledged your strength and admitted it's lost.
For it's admittance to your strength, a part of their power has been transferred to you.
You Level has risen by 2 ! Speed rises by 6 point ! Attack rises by 3 point ! Fame rises by 20 point !
Your Level has gone up by 4 !
His Battle against VazJack raised his level by 4. But the acknowledgment by the 2 leaders rises his level by 8 in total !
While Rave is gaping in shock from the message that bombarded him. a small creature came out of hiding and approached him.
Grawuu..
Rave looked at the creature, it looked like a mix of a dire wolf and white fox with silver-white like and some mix of red in it's fur.
It came close to Rave and snuggled at him. A vision appeared, the others are also able to see it.
Somewhere quite far from here, a mountainous area.
There lived a pack of dire wolves and white foxes

The two alphas are not a normal breed. The Dire Wolf Alpha was of a Red Dire Wolf species.
“ Red Dire Wolves, also known as Blood Dire Wolf. I have read it in a book in the library.
There can only be one that existed at a time, once it's born it is immediately regarded as the future leader of the pack. And it's purpose is to unite the whole dire wolf species in the continent and make them prosper. “
The other Alpha, A Female Silvers-White Fox. A direct counterpart to the Red Dire Wolf.
The two alphas fell for each other, something that was known as a taboo among the two species. But the elders could do nothing, they knew the prophecy of the 2 alphas and let them mate.
“ The taboo huh, aside from being an eternal rival. The two species together could not bore a child “
Rave read it in a book in the Numeda library. According to the book, it was theorized to be one of the reason why the 2 species had such a bad blood between them.
After their mate, the others slowly accepted each other. It was though, but they respected the 2 Alphas and actually bonded in the end. Although they may be unable to bore a child, they finally accepted each other.
The Wolf and Foxes were living their lives happily, although there were stronger monsters living in the mountain than them, the two Alphas feared any monsters that intended to attack them.
The two Alphas then began actively adding their numbers from various areas, although the other pack leaders bowed down upon meeting the two. They could not agree to reconcile with the other species. It was a though and long journey for the two leaders but they are finally able to reconcile the two packs together and thrived.
It was a very heartwarming journey. Even Rave's Ice Cold Heart felt touched.
“ Hah…even though this is just virtual reality it's quite heartwarming “
The others also felt very touched at the two alphas journey. The fox and wolves that were watching were howling in sadness
Then, one day. A miracle happened, the Mother Silvers-White Fox bore a child. At first the Red Dire Wolf Alpha couldn't believe it and thought she mated with some other wolf causing anger to spark between the two species once more.
The howling of the fox and wolves were somehow translated into Rave's ears as he is the one the little creature showed the vision directly
But then a lone white fox entered the den of the dire wolves.
It was the White Fox pack leader he fought earlier on.
She wolfed and tried to defend her queen. The Dire Wolves were about to attack her when a lone Dire Wolf stood up for her and defended her.
“ I believe she is right woof ! “
Yes, it was the Dire Wolf Pack leader he fought earlier on too.
They were the 2nd in command in their packs and thoroughly believed in their leaders.
The Red Dire Wolf then believed their story and asked for the forgiveness of the white foxes.
He thought that as a female, she would have a duty to boar an offspring.
But the elders of the white fox shrugged him off. For Centuries the Silvers-White Fox never bore a child because they weren't able to find mates worthy of them. And it was the same for the current Alpha.
The Red Dire Wolf then shocked and disgruntled at his untrusting of his own mate. wanted to kill itself but was stopped by the others.

It was actually the same for the Red Dire Wolf, they were recorded to have never bore an offspring.
The Red Dire Wolf then met the Silvers-White Fox once more, and the later forgives him. That day, the wolves and foxes howled in celebration.
Not long after, The Dire wolf and White fox are celebrating their two Alpha’s offspring’s birth.
They were howling happily like never before, if they were a civilized race there would surely a big party thrown an ever bigger one than the time the two Alphas reconciled.
Tears flowed from the 3 girls
Hiks..Hiks
“ I thought they were just monsters..but ! They had feelings and thoughts too..” Lily Cried
“ Huwaa..and we just killed lots of them “ Saichi cried
“ Don't be Lily, Saichi. It was a fight for survival for the us and them. So don't regret it “
Kaede talked to her two friends
Even Rave..although no tears came out from him, he was deeply moved too.
The one the two alphas bore was a mix of Red Dire Wolf and Silvers-White Fox. The very little creature in front of them.
But their happiness was short lived, a demon appeared out of nowhere and attacked the whole mountain.
The 2 Alphas ordered the pack to run away. But the two of them stayed behind to ensure their kin retreated safely.
They entrusted their child to the leaders, their most trusted 2nd in command. The two leaders weren't willing to leave them behind but was persuaded by the two Alphas.
“ Please do this for us “
“ There's no one else we could trust our child to except the two of you “
Then they leapt off towards the demon bravely.
Afterwards, they managed to escape but on the way they escaped, they were attacked by a lot of monsters.
The White Fox leader went to engage all of them, the Dire Wolf leader wanted to help her but she refused.
“ If we were both to die, who would protect the Alpha’s child ? “
“ I am faster than you, so I should be more efficient in hunting low leveled ones, you protect the alphas’ child “
They later on managed to reside in this cave but the White Fox leader obtained heavy injuries.
Although they were strong, now only one of them could fight. Fearing that one day a group of humans or monster came to raid their den then their Alpha’s child would die too.
The Dire Wolf leader then ordered the others to lure any coming adventurers who they deemed as strong to him. Where he would fight with them one by one and see if there were anyone worthy to protect the Alpha's child in their steed.
More than 10 groups of adventurer had battled with him but none was worthy, the white fox leader was reaching her end and they feared she would be unable to pass on her abilities to the chosen one.
They became very anxious as days passed, no adventurers passed the forest again. They became worried until Rave came.
The vision ended, The wolves and foxes howled with even more sadness in their tone.
The 2 Pack leaders has chosen you worthy to continue protect their Alpha’s offspring in their stead.
The Creature has also decided you to be worthy of him
Do you accept the creature as your Bond ?
Yes | No
Note : You have 2 bond spaces left
A window appeared before Rave after the vision ended
“ Good gracious, a bond ! “
A Bond was mentioned in the Emperor's Book of Wisdom.
A Chance to Bond with a monster rarely occurred and only few bonds had been recorded over the millennia.
While one can have an unlimited amount of pet, one could only bond with one monster at their lifetime. Sometimes, someone with a strong spirit is able to bond with 2 monsters.
The monster one bonded with, could not die from battle and could revive 24 hours after it's death. Just like how players were, except it was 24 hours inside the game.
And it could evolve into a stronger monster as it grow, however a weak monster would have limits on how it grow.
*Hmm..*
He thought for a while, so this were the reason why they gave him their core.
“ They thought they weren't strong enough to protect their Alpha’s offspring and wanted to pass that job to someone stronger “
Rave looked at the two now dead leaders.
“ They bartered their life for the protection of their Alpha’s child huh “
He smiled as he looked at the two
“ They died a honorable death “
Rave crouched down and looked at the little creature.
Although it lost it's parents at a very young age, it stood strong.
Not a even a single tear came out, it's eyes burning with determination.
“ the system said I could have 2 bonds anyway, and this guy..i like him “
I see.. little guy.. You sure you want to be with me ?
Rave asked the little creature
The little creature nodded his head in response.
“ I accept “
His left hand burned in respond to his answer, he saw that the little creature’s left hand burned too.
A mark appeared on his left hand. A circle with Magic patterns surrounding the edge appeared, with the child creature’s shadow could be seen vividly inside the circle. It is half red half silver white in color, just like the creature’s fur.
The creature’s left hand had a mark too, the same circle with a shadow of Rave could be seen inside. It's a bit transparent in color, indicating that Rave still hasn't chosen his class.
Congratulations ! You Have Bonded with a Monster !
You may now fight for the monster’s species honor.
While monsters are usually creatures that are thought to create destruction, not all monsters are like that.
In ancient times, there were some monsters that lived alongside intelligent beings
There have also been a few records in the past where the contractor fought alongside the monster's species he bonded with.
Fame rises by 200 points.
Your Bond is of a new species. A mix of a Red Dire Wolf and Silvers-White fox.
A creature born out of miracles. Although the two species are usually not compatible, the Red and Silvers-White variant had some changes in their genetic in contrast to the usual Dire Wolf and White fox, Allowing them to bear an offspring.
Do you wish to name the species ?
Note : honestly I got the feels writing this chapter. I actually planned to introduce the Alpha’s offspring later on, but autoshock’s comment made me think : Hey ! I could do that ! So thanks a lot autoshock. It made a better ending for the wolf and fox too.
By the way, what do you think of the species name ? Too long ? It sucked ? awesome ?
If you have a better name for the species or a name for the little Wolx itself I may use it.

The Granddaughter of Time
Teresa Hargrove was okay with giving up. She knew the Earth was doomed and there was nothing to be done about it. What she was not okay with was the Future, an enigmatic woman nearly fanatical in her devotion to making a difference, dragging her along — seemingly, to prove her wrong. It turns out though that the Future is very hard to understand. This story contains heavy themes, including mental illness, existential crisis and death. However, I still tried to eventually convey a message of hope. Several mythical and metaphorical beings in the shape of humans will appear in most chapters. However, they are not meant to be of a specific ethnicity or social background and are instead perceived differently by people around them. For your reading pleasure, feel free to imagine them any way you’d like, even if your imagination contradicts descriptions from the story. Enjoy!~

A Nation of Distances (possibly a dystopian love story)
Michael lives in a toxic macho world with extreme male hierarchy. When he gets a weird rating that makes his place even more problematic he's forced to choose a fiancée at a Wife School, and he slowly discovers more about the other side of the great divide between the sexes in The Nation. If only the world would stop being so complicated... On the other side there's Megan, who's more interested in books than in marriage, and the unpredictable Eliza who seems to have a connection with Micheal already. Will they be able to cross the distance and become friends against all the rules of their own world, or will they just be crushed? Are positive relationships between men and women even possible? And is there a way to change the world or is that just a naive thought of a silly wimp? 'A Nation of Distances' is a slightly dystopian dialogue-heavy drama set in a low sci-fi future setting about the war between the sexes, disconnect and friendship. The genre will fluctuate in between more slice-of-life parts and soft sci-fi drama with possible romantic elements, with alternating lead and switching perspectives once more of the main characters are established. Content Warning: Certain concepts and scenes might be disturbing and/or triggering to some, even though the story itself won't be extremely heavy most of the time. Sexism as a double-edged sword destructive to both sexes is an important part of the story, but so is friendship.Note that all descriptions of persons and places are purely fictional and made up by the writer, and any resemblance with anything in the real world is a coincidence, since the real world is not supposed to be dystopian anyway!
