nBOOM!!!

nCountless shadow hands almost enveloped the whole training building.

nBut to the girls, this attack was none other than Ray's last hopeful effort. They still employed the same tactic as before, with Kentucky buff their defense and Vampy use her light barrier to hold down the shadow hands.

n

" Useless Ray, these shadow hands could never break Vampy's barrier.

"

n

" Hmm, really?

"

nRay was looking calm no matter what happened, making the 4 girls nervous.

nAnd just when they thought the wave of shadow hands was over, cracks started to appear on Vampy's light barrier.

n*Crack-Crack*

nPRANG!!!

nThe light barrier broke completely, and the shadow hands rushed into them.

nThe girls looked in disbelief at the event that happened before them. Before, Chongky's shadow hands didn't posses any threat to the light barrier, but now the light barriers have been totally solved by him.

n

" Mistake number 1, underestimating your opponent. The rush of shadow hands before was just a probe on how strong your barrier is.

"

nEven though the barrier has broken down, the girl could still stay calm. The number of shadow hands has been lessened from the clash with the barrier, and their spirit beast should be able to dodge the remaining shadow hands.

n

" Mistake number 2, I never said it will be only Chongky who joined the battle. You guys were the ones who thought so. Schwarz, end them.

"

n*Swoosh-Swoosh*

nSuddenly, a flash appeared behind Vampy and Rabibomb, knocking them unconscious and eliminating the two from battle.

n

" Mistake number 3, you guys battle with the mindset of wearing down your opponent because you have Vampy to regen your spiritual energy, but have you guys ever thought that your opponent could also do the same?

"

nRay waved his hands to Schwarz, and from the little cat, energy burst out and came into Chongky, replenishing Chongky's energy to its fullest.

nDuring the past few weeks, Ray was not only training the girl's spirit beasts. In fact, his spirit beasts gain more improvement than the girls.

n.

n.

nNow the battle was turned into a 2 vs 2 battle with Chongky fully rejuvenated. The girls knew they have lost their odds of winning and decided to surrender. Prolonging the battle will not help them in any way and only resulted in their spirit beasts getting trashed by either Chongky or Schwarz.

nWith that, the battle concluded, and Ray came to the girls, praising them and telling each of them their mistakes during the battle.

n...

n

"*Sigh* I thought we finally have a chance of winning.

"

n

" No, we should be the one to win. Ray-nii cheated when he use Schwarz to eliminate Vampy and Alice.

"

n

" Hey, I never said that..

"

n

" Humph, I don't care anyway. Ray-nii was cheating bwee.

"

nThis girl... Ray could only smile helplessly at Aiko. She was a polite and general model student-type of a girl in school, but she turned into a super childish girl when they are together.

n

" Okay, okay, I cheat, and I lose. Are you satisfied now, Aiko?

"

n

" Yes

"

nAiko came to Ray and asked for a head pat like a good cat who wanted to be praised by her owner.

n

" Eh, no fair! I wanted to be given a head pat too. Ray-Sama, please bless Emi with your head-pat.

"

nRay then spend almost an hour playing and cuddling with the girls, except for Jean. Jean was timid, and whenever Ray got close to her, she went Awawa mode.

nOf course, the most cuddly one was Emi. She has gotten a lot better than before. Now, she didn't fight with any girl directly when Ray got touchy with them. Even so, this girl was still a super-jealous girl, that if she could, she definitely won't let Ray go.

nAfter spending some time with the girls, Ray said that he wanted to look around the public battleground. He asked the girl to stay in the training ground to train with each other while he would be leaving for a moment.

n

" Ray-Sama, please don't leave Emi. Emi couldn't breathe without you.

"

nRay was getting used to this girl's antique. He took out his handkerchief and threw them in Emi's direction, which she eagerly caught like it was the most priceless treasure.

n

" Ahh, Ray-Sama scent~.

"

nTaking the chance where Emi was distracted with his handkerchief, Ray left silently from the room with Schwarz, leaving Chongky and Xiansheng to help the girls in their training.

n.

nRay left the training ground and stroll around the big building. He was amazed at the progression of this world. 3 years before, the words spirit beast was still a unique thing for a normal person. But now, spirit beast has been such a common thing to them.

nHe explored a few rooms along the way when suddenly a notification came into his mind.

n.

n DING!!! You have cleared a hidden task.

n Defeat the girls in battle and teach them their mistakes.

n Reward: Teacher badge*

n A badge which could be used to teach spirit beast a special skill, consumable (1

/1)

n.

nWhat a great reward, Ray thought. With this teacher badge, he could greatly enhance the strength of one of his spirit beasts, but he must choose carefully since it was only a one-use item.

nOn another side, hearing the world teacher made Ray remember that he still has a mission about Mia-Sensei, which was left unsolved.

nHe had tried to ask about Mia-Sensei whereabouts to the students and teachers of the school, but Mia-Sensei disappeared like she was never there.

nLuckily, the mission has no time limit. Ray could take his time and try to find Mia-Sensei, and even if he wasn't able to find Mia-sensei, there was no drawback to him.
