Hate me, Miss Witch

Chapter 8 The reverberation of history, Char’s second soul covenant
  Amidst the huge roar, the entire secret room and even the ruins outside the secret room were shaking.

Fortunately, the ruins of this ancient country are located in gray-white hills with no villages or shops. If it broke out in the city, it would probably cause people to panic about natural disasters such as earthquakes.

Xia Ya still stood in the center of the secret room, and the accumulated dust fell beside him.

But his eyes were always fixed on the bronze platform.

The red light on the stone sculpture shined brightly, illuminating the entire secret room.

After a long time, the red glow slowly subsided, and the roar around it also gradually faded.

Although the appearance of the stone sculpture has not changed at all, Xia Ya can feel that the aura of filth and death that originally lingered on the stone sculpture has disappeared.

The current stone carving is no longer the evil and magical evil pollutant it was before, but just an ordinary stone handicraft.

Instead, on the bronze platform, rays of twisted light converged into something like a door.

The little ferret opened its delicate ruby-like eyes on Char's left shoulder, curiously looking at the door summoned by Char.

As a master of high-level illusions, Yin could clearly detect that the twisted door in front of him was not a trick such as light refraction or visual dislocation.

Rather, there is really a crack in the space law in that area, and even light passing through that area will be distorted.

Xia Ya stared at the twisted door, and an uncontrollable excitement rose in her heart.

"The reverberations of history."

In other words, "echoes of history", "fragments of time", "afterimages of the long river of time".
  So many nouns are used to describe this extraordinary phenomenon happening at this moment.

This extraordinary phenomenon is extremely rare and even directly involves the laws of time and space.

Even if ordinary civilians hear it accidentally, they will just dismiss it as an urban legend.

And even those strong men with legendary rank have no clear conclusion on this extraordinary phenomenon.

The relatively common mainstream understanding at present is that "reverberations of history" will only appear in monuments with a long history, which often carry a very profound history and were formed due to the obsession of a certain powerful person.

And its connotation, as the name suggests, is the reverberation of a certain lost history in the long river of time.

As for the specific details, Xia Ya didn't know much about it even after he tried his best to collect information.

However, if you want to complete the third stage of your novice mission, finding "historical reverberations" is the only possibility.

Only in the cracks of time and the fragments of history can Xia Yafang have the opportunity to see Sylvia again, the "Blue Silver Witch" who has disappeared in reality.

After all, even a fancy operating system like writing a name on a family tree can determine that the task is completed.

Then the feasibility of using the fragments of history to increase favorability is not low, right?

And the good news is——

Xia Ya won the bet.

As the last remnant of a glorious ancient country, there are indeed "reverberations of history" in this ruins.

Just as Xia Ya guessed, as perhaps the culprit of the destruction of this ancient country, the evil god's token is the key to unlocking the reverberations of this place's history.

Xia Ya calmed down and stretched out his hand towards the distorted light and shadow.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he felt a repulsive force pushing him away, followed by a cold notification sound in his mind.

[Entering historical fragments requires the host to have sufficient time and space affinity, and the current host's space affinity is insufficient]

"I knew it."

Xia Ya's eyes lit up slightly. The reason why the extraordinary phenomenon of "historical reverberation" is extremely mysterious is not only because its occurrence is extremely rare, but also because entering the "historical reverberation", a world where the laws of time and space are distorted, is also very difficult for those who enter. The time and space affinity has extremely high requirements.

If there is not enough spatial affinity, then even if you are really lucky and find a "reverberation of history", you can only watch helplessly from the outside, waiting for this extraordinary phenomenon to change over time. Dissipate slowly.

And Xia Ya has been preparing for this moment for so long, so naturally she will not fail to consider the situation in front of her.

Xia Ya's consciousness moved slightly.

The next moment, a round stone, half as tall as a man, quietly landed on the ground of the secret room.

"嘤嘤~ (Long time no see!)"

The little ferret on Xiaya's shoulder looked at the big round stone and said hello happily.

"Chirp!! (Long time no see!)"

The big round stone rolled, and then a roaring sound came from it in response.

Immediately afterwards, the big stone slowly rolled twice and rolled straight towards Xia Ya.

"Chirp! (Master, is it finally your turn to give me some extra points?)"

The soul contract where the souls were connected conveyed an inexplicable emotion of joy, allowing Xia Ya, as the master of the soul contract, to roughly understand the meaning of the cry.

[Race name: Sealed Stone Monkey (Sealed Stone Status)]

[Soul Contract Status: Second Soul Contract (Master-Slave Contract: Char Egut)]

[Combat Level: 1]

[Racial Level: Low Extraordinary]

[Pet Skill (Unique): Pregnancy (Perfect)]

Although he is a time traveler, Xia Ya has not inherited the most classic waste mantle of his predecessors in time travel.

On the contrary, his natural soul qualification as a beast master is quite outstanding.

At only seventeen years old, he has cultivated to the level of a second-level intermediate beast master. According to the system's panel attributes, he has reached level 28. He is not too far away from becoming a high-level beast master of the third ring. He has already opened the third level. Two-soul covenant.

Such a promotion speed is not far behind even compared to the heirs of the great nobles in the imperial capital.

However, even Xia Ya's classmates in the imperial capital have never seen the pet beast contracted by his second soul contract.

Many people speculate that Char is the kind of beast master who only specializes in cultivating one pet beast, and has no energy or resources to cultivate multiple pet beasts.

This guess is quite reasonable.

After all, Chara did not have a prominent background.

Being able to train that snow ferret to be so powerful that it can even defeat many cubs of the monarch race is already an extremely amazing achievement. It is natural that it cannot be distracted by other pet beasts.

However, only a few people know that Char's second soul contract has actually been occupied for a long time.

Moreover, most of the resources he has collected in the past few years have been invested in the Second Soul Pact. Compared to Yin, whose basic abilities have been finalized, Xia Ya has invested more in the Second Soul Pact. .

Xia Ya knelt down, picked up the slowly rolling boulder and touched it, with a smile on his lips.

"Since we already have a Tsukuyomi ferret——"

"Then it should be reasonable for me to train another monkey with space skills, right?"
