Chapter 1: Planet Sapphire

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Planet Sapphire was a world that closely resembled Planet Earth.

The only difference was that the humans of Planet Sapphire were governed by imperial beasts.

Fearsome Beasts ran amuck on Planet Sapphire. Humans had specifically researched ways to control the Fearsome Beasts in order to deal with them.

They would sign a contract with the Fearsome Beasts.

This would allow them to control the Fearsome Beasts in a fight and merge with them, using their power to grow even stronger.

Besides, they could also make full use of their abilities.

These humans were known as Imperial Beastmasters!

Fang Chen was among many Imperial Beastmasters.

However, he did not have a contract with a Fearsome Beast but with a small, average white rabbit.

Furthermore, all of this had been discussed from the moment he had entered the Poland Education Institute.

On Planet Sapphire, becoming an Imperial Beastmaster was a requirement for anyone who wanted to enter an educational institute.

Therefore, in order to enroll at college, poverty-stricken Fang Chen, who had no money for the high-level Fearsome Beasts in this realm, had no choice but to sign a contract with a white rabbit.

His initial plan was to work hard after entering college, grow stronger, and then switch to a different contracted Fearsome Beast when he had the chance.

Unexpectedly, three years passed in the blink of an eye and his goal of attaining the level of an elite was still very distant.

Over the past three years, he had experienced countless abuse and mockery.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he showed no progress in terms of leveling up.

Today was his eighteenth birthday.

Unfortunately, no one would remember it but him.

Fifteen years ago, when he had transmigrated into this world, he had parents who had loved him dearly.

Besides, they had both been respected Imperial Beastmasters.

However, three years ago, during a mission to defend themselves against the Fearsome Beasts, the powers of the Fearsome Beasts had exceeded their expectations. As a result, all the Imperial Beastmasters on the squad, including his parents, had been killed in action. There had been no survivors.

From that moment on, Fang Chen had become an orphan.

Although the higher-ups provided an allowance for Imperial Beastmasters killed in action, for some reason, Fang Chen had never received his.

The only thing his parents had left him was an average three-bedroom apartment.

Fang Chen had dreamed of becoming a great Imperial Beastmaster countless times over the years by charging and breaking through enemy lines, killing Fearsome Beasts, and avenging his parents.

However, reality had given him a huge slap across the face.

In one more year, he would be kicked out of the institute if he still didn’t make a breakthrough.

Then, he would be reduced to an average human.

‘I refuse to accept this!’

However, how was having a contract with an average while rabbit useful?

Even a level-one Fearsome Beast would be 100 times stronger than this white rabbit.

Unfortunately, a level-one Fearsome Beast was worth 100,000 bucks. He couldn’t afford that.

Of course, he could sell his apartment, but that apartment was the last thing that his parents had left him. Traces of his parents were everywhere in the apartment, so it was the only thing he owned that held sentimental value. It was, on some level, his form of sustenance.

In the past three years, the interior of the apartment had remained untouched. Besides, he would clean it every day, as if his parents would suddenly come home one day.

In the end, Fang Chen had to accept reality.

Aside from celebrating his eighteenth birthday, he had decided to sell the house.

If he wanted to be strong, he needed to get a contract with a higher-level Fearsome Beast.

Once he sold the apartment, he would have enough money to buy a level-one or maybe even a level-two Fearsome Beast.

Only power could grant him the chance to join the battle against the Fearsome Beasts. Then, he would have the chance to avenge his parents.

Aside from selling the apartment for money, he had no other choice.

“Mom, Dad, I know you’re supporting me in spirit from heaven. Aren’t you?” After packing his clothes, Fang Chen gazed at their family portrait. His nose was wrinkled, and his eyes brimmed with warm tears.

“Persevere! I must persevere. I cannot be weak. I will avenge my parents!” Fang Chen cheered himself on after a while, swallowing his sadness.

Before long, he packed up his parents’ possessions. The spacious apartment seemed much emptier now.

There was one more thing left to take care of.

His contracted beast.

He could buy another Fearsome Beast once the house was sold. Naturally, his current contracted beast would have to be dealt with.

If it were a true Fearsome Beast, it would have to be an amicable separation. However, he was contracted to a white rabbit. Therefore, he had contacted a pet shop beforehand and was ready to send the bunny to them.

Of course, he had developed feelings for the little white rabbit too after spending three years with it.

Even though the white rabbit had never been able to elevate his powers as his contracted beast, it had been privy to many of his innermost feelings.

Honestly, he really couldn’t stand not having the white rabbit with him.

Unfortunately, he had no choice.

Each human could only be contracted to one Fearsome Beast. Besides, he wasn’t sure where he would live from now on. The white rabbit would only suffer if he kept it.

Plus, if he stayed in college, he would not be allowed to have any pets.

He had made up his mind, so he acted on his decision. The beast symbols on his wrist slowly took shape, emitting a huge glow.

Soon, the light faded away, revealing a flawless white rabbit to Fang Chen.

The little rabbit hopped to Fang Chen’s leg as soon as it appeared, nuzzling affectionately against his trouser leg.

Fang Chen squatted down and took the rabbit into his arms, a glimmer of reluctance appearing in his eyes.

“I’m sorry, Xiao Bai. I won’t be able to stay with you anymore.”

Xiao Bai seemed to understand Fang Chen’s words and nuzzled its head into Fang Chen’s chest.

This gesture softened Fang Chen’s heart just a little.

However, he needed power. If he wanted vengeance, he had to leave Xiao Bai.

Just as he was about to take Xiao Bai to the pet shop across the road from his house, he suddenly heard a voice in his head that stopped him in his tracks as though he had been struck by lightning.

“Ding! Congratulations, host. It’s your eighteenth birthday! The Divine Beast System has been activated successfully.”

“Ding! Divine Beast System contract in progress. Only host: Fang Chen!”

“Ding! The Divine Beast System has been activated. The Divine Beast training function has been unlocked.”

“Please select a training partner!”

Fang Chen looked at Xiao Bai, who was nestled in his arms, and unlocked the depository.

“Training venue: Mythical World!”

“Training period: 1,000 years!”

“First-time training reward triggered— Time*100.”

“Begin training in the Mythical World for 100,000 years!”

A white flash appeared, and Xiao Bai disappeared from Fang Chen’s arms into thin air.

It took Fang Chen a long time before he came back to his senses.

Everything that had happened felt like a dream.

However, Xiao Bai really had disappeared.

Then, he checked his wrist for the beast symbol that marked his contract with Xiao Bai and relaxed.

Soon, Fang Chen’s heart was filled with apprehension.

He was no stranger to systems, but what the heck was the Divine Beast System?

Besides, what was the use of the Divine Beast training function? Could it train Xiao Bai into a Divine Beast?

In addition, 100,000 years seemed like an unimaginable period to Fang Chen.

Even the powerful Imperial Beastmasters of Planet Sapphire only managed to live for a few hundred years.

Wouldn’t that mean that by the time Xiao Bai finished its training, he would be long gone without a trace?

As Fang Chen’s heart was filled with apprehension, a system notification suddenly rang out.

“Ding! 100,000 years have passed in the Mythical World. Divine Beast training complete.”

The scenery in front of Fang Chen suddenly changed, and a black whirlpool materialized before his eyes out of the blue.

Then, a beautiful, slender, elegant woman stepped out of a spatial rift, smiling as she approached Fang Chen.

“Hello, Master. Long time no see!”
