Chimera.

The elves’ auspicious holy beast. Since the Lich King’s chaotic reign a thousand years ago, the elves’ druid warriors were all either dead or injured.

Now, the elves only had Robert left.

It could be said that the druid warriors had already ceased to exist in name.

Over the years, the elves never had a druid warrior again, let alone summon the elves’ guardian of the Holy Beasts, Chimera.

Robert was faintly worried that the druid warriors of the elves would lose their bloodline.

When Chris started summoning, Robert was more nervous than anyone else.

He was already old. Perhaps in a few decades, he would return to the embrace of the God of the Forest.

At that time, the druids would truly become extinct.

When the summoning started, Robert was more nervous than anyone. This was a critical moment that concerned the survival of the druids.

When Chris did not transform, he was still slightly disappointed. Could it be that the druids were really headed toward extinction?

However, he did not expect the situation to change so drastically.

Chris, who did not possess any magical talent, had actually summoned the legendary Holy Beast, Chimera.

Robert was completely dumbfounded.

This was all thanks to the blessing of the God of the Forest. After multiple confirmations, Robert’s expression filled with delight.

“Kid, you really are the God of Luck for us elves. You are our hope, the hope of our resurrection.”

Robert patted Chris on the shoulder, laughing as his shriveled skin split open.

It seemed as though he had already witnessed the elves regain their glory from a thousand years ago.

Chris was startled by the bright twinkle in Robert’s eyes.

This gaze was a little wretched no matter how he looked at it.

This old man was a little odd!

Was it not just a summoning of a little creature?

There was no need to be so excited.

Chris looked at Chimera that was tightly clutching onto his pants. Its two little heads were raised and it met Chris’ gaze.

“Coo coo!”

Chimera purred in a skittish tone. Its pink little claws could not help but contract even tighter.

It began to climb up his pants, wanting to get closer to Chris. However, Chris, who did not have a good impression of this creature, would not allow it to do so.

He grabbed its little body and flung it away.

This utterly shocked Robert, who was standing at the side. He glared at Chris and was about to welcome Chimera back.

He was about to make a move when he saw Chimera return. It again tightly grabbed the corner of Chris’s shirt and made a cooing sound, as if it was protesting.

“Kid, what are you doing?”Robert roared at Chris.

“This is our race’s holy beast, a symbol of the elves’ strength. It is very attached to you now. You have to take good care of it, do you understand?”

Robert’s expression had never been so solemn. Chris felt a little helpless.

He grabbed Chimera and placed it on his shoulder. Although this tiny fellow was a little horrendous looking, it already acted that way. What else could he do?

Sensing Chris’ thoughts, Chimera cried out and cooed again as it waved its two little claws.

It seemed to be saying that it was not at all ugly.

Chris was shocked. Could it be that this little creature knew what he was thinking?

He had read about it in the books at the Ancient Tree of Knowledge. After signing a beast soul contract, both parties could communicate telepathically.

Earlier, had he signed a beast soul contract with this little fellow?

On top of that, with the Holy Beast of the Elf Race, Chimera?

According to Robert, once this little fellow matured, he would be comparable to a human saint-level powerhouse. Was that true?

Judging from its seemingly fragile appearance, could that just be an exaggeration?
