Chapter 721: Moving To The Tournamen

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

In the morning there was something wrong going on with Miriam, I don't know what it was but she seemed sickly and even a bit feverish, it made me really worried and I desperately used my skills to infuse life into her and heal her. She was looking so pale that I felt that something wrong was happening, but thankfully she recovered after what I did, albeit there was something in her that seemed different from every day, perhaps she had a very bad nightmare, and was recovering from it.

Nightmares… I am quite used to them, they always tend to come when you least expect them, I do remember waking up from some of them and feeling down the entire day, it is incredible what the power of the mind can do to itself… Well, I want to think that she's okay, but there was certainly something odd with her. I had resisted the urge to peek into her mind because I felt it was something rather rude to do to a small little child, but I was beginning to think it was the right thing to do to find out what she had, however, she didn't let me, as she ended jumping out of bed and running to the bathroom to take a bath…

I suppose I should leave it for another occasion, I don't really want to creep out my adoptive daughter now, even less when I am still growing closer to her. Hades told me that he also felt something weird going on with this girl, so I guess I wasn't the only one that felt it. He then said something about me being a magnet for weird people with strange powers, and I guess he's right.

I have to face it now; Miriam does indeed have strange powers. At first I wasn't even able to tell anything, btu they began to awaken when she made a contract with Ryujin. I could already see it when she began to train with him, her powers were able to help him grow stronger super-fast, something not even the monster pet nursery with its various abilities could handle.

She certainly had powers, strange powers. I know that in this world people is capable of developing supernatural abilities and there are several arts of magic usage which are all connected to their monster pets, advanced trainers can merge their magic with their monster pets and unleash spells based in their monster pets at their side, and the legendary ones in history were said to be even capable of fusing with their monsters, bringing forth an unprecedented level of power.

Could Miriam be such a figure? Her talent is incredible, and she's already able to share a great bond with Ryujin, so I really wonder how all of that will go… Ahhh, Ryujin is there for her, so maybe I shouldn't worry that much? Ugh, well, I am still leaving a Shadow Clone in her shadows just in case something weird happens to her and she can get some help. Well, we already had breakfast, and we prepared what to do now, we were all going to the tournament, of course.

But not everyone is participating.

Yeah, I couldn't find space for all the girls to participate, so only a selected few of people can go, I decided to just let those that had the strongest monster pets which included experience in combat. So aside from me, Miriam, Arthurious, Gwendolyn, and Axitl will participate, the other girls will stay in the seats and cheer for us… It is a bit sad for them, but it is not as if it's the end of the world, I'll make sure to find some place for them whenever there is a new tournament going on.

<br/>Miriam and Arthurious were very excited about participating, and they said they would win a prize without a doubt, no matter what, I was happy they were so excited, but I don't know what sorts of monster pets will appear in such a big tournament, I hope that if they lose early on, they don't feel so defeated, after all there is always opportunities to grow stronger over time… But well, regarding me, it is pretty much guaranteed I will win, after all my monster pets are insanely strong, I doubt there can be anything that could go against them… maybe.

I don't have to lower my guard so much though, there might be something happening that could end up ruining everything… I cannot just let it happen. So I will have my senses in alert. I have some sort of sixth sense thanks to the Fate Attribute Particles I have, and I could sense that something might happen in the future, and MIGHT is a big word because it could happen or not.

But I am not someone that likes to take risks, so I will make sure to be prepared for anything anyways… But I will make sure to grab that Time Stone, with it I can mature Ryujin and then send him back to Japan so he can finally become a Sea God and end of the story.

…I hope. But Miriam seems to be growing very attached to him, so I don't really know what I'll do about it. Well, she's my adopted daughter now, so I guess it would be okay to show her Earth and some of my abilities, right? I have already included her in the system by now, but she cannot see the notifications or anything unless I allow it, so she's actually developing skills and more but without realizing it completely, only thinking she's just growing stronger naturally, well, she is, but the system is giving her a nice boost, although just recently because I added her like half a week ago… And the same for Arthurious.

And well, here we are, an enormous and beautiful arena similar to the one the ancient Romans had back on Earth, it looked quite glorious.
