Eternal Love 27 Star Tower

Leonardo walked towards the dean's office. he didn't get any notification on his bracelet that Fredrick needed his presence so he was trying to guess the reason for Fredrick's summon.

****Dean's Office****

Leo got to the Deans office and knocked on the door, then a voice resounded from within, saying "come in". Leo opens the door and walked into the deans office.

Leo, with a bow, greeted Fredrick. With a nod, Fredrick returned his greetings.

Fredrick: Do you know why I have summoned you here boy?

Leonardo: No sir.

Fredrick: Well, don't be puzzled. *he walked towards Leo, put a hand on him and both of them instantly teleported out of the office* we are here.

Leo: where is this place master?

Fredrick: This my boy, is the Star Tower. Have you heard of the Star Tower?

Leonardo: It's the place were knights come to get soul beast partners?

Fredrick: Right my boy. But its more than just picking soul beast partners. The Star Tower serves as a medium through which young knights make contracts with soul beasts. these soul beast are linked to the soul of the contractors.

Leo: Sir, is the Star tower the only way to make contracts with soul beasts?

Fredrick: No, but it's the safest means to get a soul beast. The other means to get a soul beast is if you can make a beast agree to the beast contract with you, either by beating it till it surrenders of by making it acknowledge you in anyway possible. Using the Star Tower is safer because soul beasts contracts are made when the beast is still in the infants stage. this way, the contractor and the beast can grow side by side while learning more each other. Once a contract is made between a knight and a soul beast, it cannot be undone. If anyone of them dies, the other dies. That is the risk of having a soul beast. At the same time, with a soul beast by your side, you get a power boost to your powers. Step back for a bit boy, let me give you a demonstration.

Leo stepped back a bit to watch his teacher display his prowess. Fredrick gave a smile then said,

Fredrick: "Arise my friend"

As he spoke these words, a magic circle appeared beside him and a gigantic purple bird appeared in the circle. The bird had the stature of an eagle but it was way big.

Fredrick: meet my partner boy. Its a thunder bird. Its a rare specie of birds and its very compatible with my element. It is a rank 5 magical beast. What you see is the first stage of being a soul beast user. The ability to call forth you beast to aid you in battles in cases were you are outnumbered. *signalling to Leo to move back a bit* You might want to move back a bit.

Leo instinctively took even more steps away from Fredrick. suddenly, there was a surge of mana flowing around Fredrick and his soul beast. The bird flew towards Fredrick and immediately merged with him. The transformation was so epic. Fredrick now had beautiful purple wings on his back, he was clad in purple feathers that looked to be as hard as steel. His hands now had claws and his eyes were like that of the bird.

Fredrick: This, my boy, is the second stage of soul beast manifestation. As long as you have enough mana, you should be able to stay in this form as long as you like.

Fredrick undid his transformation and asked Leo if he had any questions.

Leo: only one. Do I have to say those phrase before transforming?

Fredrick: Ha Ha Ha, no boy, I said it because it's bada.s.s.

Leonardo returned a stoic look to Fredrick. After these few discussions with the Dean, few other people came towards the Star Tower. Vincent came together with vice dean Rose, Aaron and Hayden were with Anderson, Katherine came with the head of the light department, Ava, Aria came with the Head of fire element department, Dave. However, there was a face they were not too familiar with. The head of the lightning element department, Emma West, had arrived with a disciple as well. only Hayden waved to this disciple of Emma. Apparently, he was acquitted with her.

Hayden: Hey!! Philip!! How are you? Where have you been? I haven't seen you in days.

Philip: Hey Hayden. I have been really busy with my training. I was still training when I got summoned here by my Teacher.

Hayden: Alright. how about we hang out after this. I made some new friends. I want to introduce you to them.

Philip replied with a nod. Fredrick stood at the entrance of the Tower and started explaining the purpose of the gathering of the seven disciples.

Fredrick: Most of you kids must be wondering why you are here. Well, to clarify your minds, it's to help you get your soul beasts. The requirement to go into the Star tower is to reach the 5th stage of the squire realm which I believe you all must have exceeded. Your Masters must have explained all you need to know about soul beasts? Right?

The kids responded with a nod. Then he continued.

Fredrick: Then I wish you all the very best in your contracts. Don't forget, whatever beast you choose today, will determine your growth tomorrow.

The seven kids entered into the tower one after the order. Aria, who was everly eager, jumped in first then Vincent followed, then Philip, then Hayden, then Katherine. Aaron, who was about entering the stopped and spoke to Leo;

Aaron: do your best, brother.

Leo: *with eyes closed* hmmp. You too.

Aaron entered the Star Tower and Leo followed not too long after.

*********************************

As Leo entered the Tower, he couldn't find any of his friends that went in before him. Apparently, each individual got transported to a different location within the tower.

At wherever place Leo was in in the Star Tower, there was a big magic inscription on the floor. At the centre of the magic inscription stood an altar. Beside the altar was something like an instruction written on a stone tablet which read,

"Blood connects, Blood is the key, Blood is the link, the Souls can only be entwined by Blood for in Birth, there is blood".

Leo took a glance at the altar, then at the instruction on the stone tablet. He walked up to the altar, cut himself a bit and allowed the blood to drop on the altar. As if sensing his blood, the altar came to life and a miniature inscription, the same as the one on the ground appeared on the altar. There was a sudden burst of mana and boom! Something appeared on the altar.

This is going to be a problem. Leo thought when he saw his soul beast.
