Chapter 69 Nice



Instead, a much more perplexing situation was taking place on the screen in front of them

***

Right as the chaos settled, with the entire horde dead, the white tiger met Alex and Mira\'s eyes.

But instead of the ferocity they saw when the tiger had massacred the entire horde of beasts, they saw eyes filled with curiosity. Not something they had expected from such a mountain sized killing machine.

Ding!

Right as the stare down started, Alex and Mira\'s watches pinged out with a notification at the same time. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Unsure what to do, Alex hesitated for a few moments before his eyes parted with the tiger\'s and he looked down at his watch.

\'Urgent! Due to unforeseen circumstances, the exam has ended early. All applicants are to immediately wait for evacuation until further notice.\'

Alex wasn\'t surprised at seeing this notification. Clearly the examiners had noticed the situation with this huge white tiger and the killing of thousands of beasts at once.

It seemed that the federation had some explaining to do. This relatively \'safe\' Floodgate clearly wasn\'t as simple as it seemed.

But Alex quickly threw any thoughts surrounding the subject aside, as he and Mira were currently locked in a stare down with the huge white tiger.

Suddenly, they felt the energy in the air surrounding them rise rapidly, causing their nerves to go haywire.

\'I guess this is where we die…\'

Alex was speechless.

In his mind, the only reason why the energy would rise was because something was preparing an attack.

Neither he nor Mira were doing such a thing, which only left one culprit.

Out of nowhere, Alex felt a slight tug on his shoulder.

He looked over absentmindedly and saw Mira holding tightly onto him, her eyes and face scrunched up as she prepared for the worst.

\'At least I had the chance to make a friend before I die…\' Mira thought to herself.

However, just as the energy in the air reached its peak, instead of the attack Alex was expecting, something else occurred.

\'You are good bait. I reward.\'

A deep and masculine voice entered his mind, the source unknown.

But when he looked up and saw the same curious look in the tiger\'s eyes, with no indication of an attack, he had a vague idea of what happened.

\'Did the tiger just communicate with me?\'

He wore deep shock on his face when this realisation hit him.

He had never heard of a beast being able to communicate with humans.

Alex didn\'t even know such a thing was possible.

As far as humans were concerned, whether it was in the Primordial Expanse or out in the universe, they were the only known sentient creatures.

Yet this tiger right in front of him was a direct contradiction to that theory.

Just as Alex was recovering from his shock, the mountain sized white tiger shook very lightly, shaking Alex and Mira off it\'s fur.

It was at this point that Mira also opened her eyes, looking around confused.

"Aren\'t we supposed to be dead?" She asked Alex, still nervous.

Alex looked at her trembling lips, and answered her.

"I don\'t think this tiger intends to hurt us. I think it just communicated with me…" Alex wanted to continue further but he stopped himself when he realised that the examiners were probably watching this whole thing play out from the ship above.

In fact he was still a little confused about something.

Why had they not intervened yet?

Clearly this white tiger wasn\'t something that any applicant here even had a remote chance of facing.

Hell, even awakened a whole rank above them probably wouldn\'t stand a chance against it.

"But why did it kill that other girl if it\'s letting us live?" He was left puzzled by this.

This was the one thing Alex didn\'t understand.

\'She stole prey.\'

But the voice entered Alex\'s mind once again when he asked this. When he looked up, the white tiger was still glancing at him.

He turned to Mira, and spoke.

"I\'ll explain it all later in more detail. First we should get out of here so the examiners can come pick us up."

Mira nodded fervently, desperately wanting to escape.

One had to consider that they weren\'t even adults yet. When facing off against other humans or beasts of similar rank who threatened their life, they had the confidence to kill them.

But when up against a foe with such a large disparity in strength, even the strongest willed awakened might feel fear.

Although the tiger didn\'t seem like it was going to kill them, considering it was still a beast he didn\'t want to take any chances. Especially since it was their lives on the line.

But just as he and Mira slowly started backing away, the tiger swiped its tail across, tangling the duo up before they could make it any further.

\'Wait.\'

It spoke in Alex\'s mind, and put the two down again right in front of its huge head.

As it set the two down, the tiger started making some heaving motions, like it was about to throw something up.

A few seconds later, it did just that.

Right in front of the duo, the tiger spat out two gleaming silver balls. They were about the size of a human head each, surrounded by a mysterious silver glow and gave off a menacing energy.

Like they were of a higher existence than them.

The tiger pointed its snout at the two silver balls and then at Alex and Mira respectively.

Then, like it was never there, it disappeared into thin air.

If they weren\'t staring wide eyed at the tiger the whole time without blinking, they would have missed it.

In the span of just milliseconds, it surrounded itself in a silver glow, similar to the glow given off by the two silver balls, and disappeared.

Up above, on the spaceship.

"Space element! This Divine beast even has the space element!" Professor Will exclaimed.

"Wait what?? I blinked and I missed it…" Another examiner looked depressed when he heard Professor Will\'s words.

It was rare across the whole federation to see the space element in action.

B ranks like them could go their entire lives before seeing someone use the space element, even rarer to see a beast with the element.

With the tiger gone, the examiners turned their attention to the two silver orbs in front of Alex and Mira.

Greed entered their eyes when they noticed their similarity to the space element the Divine beast had just shown.
