I Can Give Talent

Chapter 81 – Goldstone Family

"Haha! Yes, I know. It is my honor to be your beast tamer, my elegant red fox queen." Leyvi continued praising Scarlet making her happier.

Afterward, he transferred Scarlet into the spirit beast bag again and returned to his seat. While waiting for the next match, he recalled the fight between Scarlet and Staggy, the name of the Demonic Stag Beetle he heard when The Last Hairbender tried to calm it down.

From what he saw, the temperament and personality of the spirit beast had a huge influence on the mental connection between the spirit beast and the tamer. No wonder it wasn't advisable to tame a demonic beast by using force as they may develop ill feelings and act against the tamer when an opportunity arrives. The spiritual imprint planted in them wasn't omnipotent and it has limits.

At the same time, Hana and Sayu in the spectator seat were still celebrating and cheering for Scarlet's victory, after all, they spent more time with her and her cubs than Leyvi had. 

"I want a spirit beast too. A beautiful and elegant one like Scarlet!" Hana dreamed of having one after seeing Scarlet in action. Sayu nodded a few times agreeing with Hana.

Layla chuckled. "If Mr. Bison heard that you might hear endless snorts and grunts from him."

"Uhhh....I didn't say that he's ugly. I just prefer the fluffy type." Hana defended herself.

"Don't worry Hana, when you become his woman later, you can ask him to tame a demonic beast for you. Didn't we also get one? Right Sister Lilian?" Layla reassured Hana. Lilian nodded in agreement.

Anda's habit of promoting and seeking a harem for her husband slowly infected Layla and Lilian. The both of them don't seem to oppose the idea of sharing their husband with other women in the slightest now. If it was in the past, they might felt some unwillingness to think about this issue, but not anymore.

"Really? Madam Lilian, can you let me borrow your big mountains? I need it to seduce Mister Leyvi tonight." Hana joked.

The ladies laughed together.

Meanwhile, outside the coliseum,

"Brother....I lost my first match....Staggy lost his patience again and went crazy....." The Last Hairbender shared her frustration with her brother who watched her awful performance as she took off her cute-looking mask, revealing a cute face.

"Alright, you had your fun here. Let's go back to the family's vacation house. I still need to practice my fire-controlling method." The brother replied.

The brother and sister were the young master and the young lady of the Goldstone Family, one of the famous Alchemist Families in the South Region.

The sister was Selene Goldstone. She was a petite young woman with big round eyes, and her blonde bouncy curls hairstyle was arranged by herself using Qi manipulation. Although she came from an Alchemist Family, she didn't have the talent for it and preferred being a beast tamer as a hobby.

However, she was more into taming insect-type demonic beasts. Due to the Goldstone Family's wealth and influence, finding a few insect-type demonic beasts was not a problem and Staggy was her favorite among them even though it was a bit problematic. She had chosen Staggy in her first match because she thought her opponent would be easy, but she was completely wrong.

The brother, Victor Goldstone was a 30 year old early stage Core Formation realm. In the South Region, when anyone reached the Core Formation realm at the age of 30, they would be considered a cultivation genius and Victor was one. Not only was he a cultivation genius, but he was also highly skilled in alchemy.

Like Selene, he also had short blonde hair with a sleek side part, looking very neat and presentable. He would be very popular with the ladies if he were much taller. Unfortunately, he was only slightly taller than her sister. He had a hard time finding a girl because behind his back they would look at his short stature with disdain and his impressive achievements and status made it harder because he only saw gold diggers lining up to meet him.

Through alchemy, he had been searching for a way to make him taller so he could feel better about himself. He had created many Theoretical Alchemy Formulas for increasing one's height but all of them ended up in failure. His experimental products had deformed many experimental creatures. For some reason, they couldn't get tall 'normally' but only elongate certain parts of their body.

"What do you mean I had fun? I lost in my first match! It's frustrating! Brother, do you know Leyvi Leyan? Any information on him?" Selene suddenly asked about Leyvi.

Victor's eyebrow twitched when his sister asked about the guy who in his opinion, had the perfect height as a man. Could it be that his sister was interested in that guy? Victor was displeased in his heart, women always like tall guys first. Give some justice to short guys around the world!

"No. I've never heard of him. Probably a nobody. Why? He beat you and now you are interested in him?" Victor asked.

"Em....You can say that. I like goofy guy." Selene giggled as she recalled that scene again.

Victor was stunned. Goofy? Not because he was tall? Do I need to be goofy too to attract women? Is there an alchemy product that could make someone goofy?

"Don't girls like cool or macho guys?" To Victor, before a man could be considered cool or macho, he must be tall first.

"Hmph, don't lump me together with the other girls, I'm different!" Selene pouted cutely, her big eyes narrowed as she crossed her arms.

When Victor heard her response, he let out a relieved sigh. That's right, she is indeed different from other girls. When other girls were busy with feminine things, his sister would play with insects. He couldn't use his sister as the standard for other girls.

"Yes yes, you are not the same as other girls. Let's go back now, I'm busy." Victor said impatiently. 

"Brother, you go back first, I want to watch the goofy guy more." Selene skipped back into the coliseum.

Victor went back alone to the vacation house angrily.

An hour later, the remaining matches in the first round ended. The participants were given half an hour to prepare for the next round. There will be 16 total matches in round 2 and the matchup will be done randomly again. The battles were expected to be even fiercer than the first round, making the audience highly excited.

Leyvi decided to use Scarlet again after this and will only select Mr. Bison in the later rounds. After all, Scarlet hasn't gone all out yet. As for Stripey, forget about it.

Quickly, thirty minutes passed, and the announcer announced the start of round 2.

"The first match of round 2, Heavenly Demon versus Leyvi Leyan! Please enter the arena."

Leyvi was startled, he didn't expect to be matched first. He quickly leaped onto the arena and saw his opponent wearing a large light pink feather coat on top of his tall, lean, muscular body. He also had a pair of curved, thin white sunglasses with red lenses, likely a fancy accessory, not made to support eyesight.

Leyvi summoned Scarlet first without thinking much. The beautiful and elegant Demonic Red Fox was once again in the arena. 

A moment later, Heavenly Demon also summoned his spirit beast, a Demonic Flamingo. The flamingo had light pink feathers, the same exact color as the large feather coat that Heavenly Demon wore.

Did he pluck his flamingo's feathers to make that coat? Leyvi wondered. In the first round, Heavenly Demon used another spirit beast to fight but Leyvi didn't care. He was also interested to see how would Scarlet deal with a flying opponent.

"Let the match begin!'

When the match started, the flamingo immediately flew up in the air, observing Scarlet's action. 

Scarlet, on the other hand, shrunk and quickly retreated into a dense, tall tree area. Fighting an airborne enemy on an open field would be stupid. She knew that much. 

The flamingo followed Scarlet safely from a distance toward the dense tree area. It hovered above the trees, enlarged to its maximum size, and flapped its giant wings repeatedly, creating a violent gust of winds. The winds cut through the trees and felled them on the ground. Branches and leaves got caught up in the violent gust and scattered throughout the area obstructing visions.

In the audience, the women were worried about Scarlet who was at the center of the ferocious attacks, especially Hana.

"Oh no..... Scarlet, please be alright!" Hana couldn't sit still witnessing the damage in the arena.

Sayu also worried as she hugged Lilian's arm tightly. After serving Lilian as a personal maid, she became more like Lilian's younger sister rather than a maid.

At this moment, everyone thought that Heavenly Demon and his Demonic Flamingo had won the match. There was no chance for the Demonic Red Fox to emerge from the stormy area attacks unscathed.

However, Leyvi smiled. Although he couldn't see properly what was happening, he knew what Scarlet's next move would be.
