A rare magical miracle in the world

"No way, there's such a thing?"

Bailuo had been observing the Black Leather Book, from front to back, meticulously, but no matter how he looked at it, the conclusion he reached was always the same —— the twelfth Miracle was right in front of Hailbo!

But the problem was, there was only one person in front of Hailbo!

A Miracle Creature, yet an unidentifiable level Miracle Creature.

"Could it be that panda?"

The panda Bailuo referred to was precisely Duke A'li's mount.

The national treasure from his homeland in the past life, how could Bailuo possibly make a mistake: "Hailbo, initiate Divine Presence, let me talk to her."

"Yes."

Hailbo trusted Bailuo completely, he opened his mind and let a part of Bailuo's will descend upon him.

"Duke Li, hello, I am the King of Yatun Duchy, my name is Bailuo Yatun."

The eyes of 'Hailbo' twinkled with a faint blue light, symbolizing the Miracle Power of the Avalon World, Bailuo did not descend with too much power, for fear that Hailbo's body wouldn't be able to bear it.

Having found a new miracle, Bailuo couldn't possibly act through Hailbo's hands, so he chose to take the field himself immediately.

"Hello, I didn't expect our first encounter to be like this."

Duke A'li immediately recognized that the person before her had changed, and said with a solemn expression, "Then, are you friend or foe?"

"Naturally, I come bearing goodwill."

"Please forgive any previous discourtesies."

Bailuo got straight to the point, "Also, I have an audacious request, I wonder if Duke Li might grant it?"

"Hmm?"

Being approached with a request right from the start was a first for A'li, but being broad-minded, apart from rightfully confronting the Iron Eagle King politically, everything else was negotiable.

"You first."

"I would like to touch the head of Duke A'li's mount, may I?"

"Wu?"

The chubby panda froze on the spot: Am I being targeted by a man?

"..."

A'li was somewhat speechless, "You may touch it, but I will definitely not give you my mount."

The panda cried with emotion: My master loves me the most o(╥﹏╥)o

A'li: "There will be an additional charge."

Panda: "Wuu!!!"@@novelbin@@

"Cough cough, I just want to touch it, I have no intention of stealing someone else's beloved."

Having said that, Bailuo gently patted the panda's head, however, the Black Leather Book showed no response.

So, he extended his hand towards Duke A'li.

"???"

A'li couldn't possibly know of the existence of the Black Leather Book, and although baffled by Bailuo's strange sequence of actions, considering the existence of characters like the fluffy-brained King of Aolai and the super OCD Iron Eagle King, Duke A'li came to terms with it.

After all, how could the Master of Miracles be called such without any quirks?

Just like her, she drank, smoked, fought, curled her hair, got tattoos, and still claimed to be a good girl.

The sound by his ear told Bailuo the correct answer.

[Origin Seed]

Level: Unidentifiable

Type: Miracle Creature

Faction: Lost Realm

Contract Requirement: Defeat it in combat once

Status: Half-awakened (unable to bestow Miracle Power to others)

'Origin Seed? Isn't it a Miracle Creature, a seed, also a creature?'

Bailuo had never seen such a strange Miracle Creature before; he watched Duke A'li repeatedly until she, unable to bear it any longer, lowered her head helplessly and took silent drags from her cigarette.

Simultaneously, Bailuo finally learned the secret of Zhu Xia Country.

A'li was not some Master of Miracles, she was a Miracle Creature, and moreover, a self-aware Miracle Creature.

However, every Miracle requires a master; otherwise, it struggles to act independently. Even if it could live a carefree life, various defects and even side effects would manifest.

Duke A'li and Eastern Empress Ying Muyao were different; the latter had a master but lost him, while the former never had one to begin with, so she didn't endure the pain of loss like Ying Muyao did.

"Have you had your fill of looking?"

"Uh..."

Bailuo said, "So, Duke Li is a Miracle Creature, is that correct?"

"Cough! Cough cough cough!"

The composure on A'li's face was replaced by surprise at that moment.

Her identity had never been known or revealed by anyone, not even formidable figures like the Empress of the Far North or the Eastern Empress could ever understand why she was so powerful.

"How did you find out?"

Bailuo was not afraid of A'li killing to silence him, because the only other person present was Hailbo.

It wasn't that Hailbo wasn't important, but Bailuo had leverage over her. She couldn't possibly harm Hailbo unless A'li wanted her own identity to be shouted from the rooftops by Bailuo.

"Huh~~~"

However, to Bailuo's surprise, after A'li took a few drags of her cigarette, she seemed completely unconcerned with her biggest secret being uncovered by him.

"Now that you know my identity, let me ask you a question."

A'li looked at Bailuo calmly, "Do you know how a masterless Miracle Creature like me can find a master?"

"......."

The question was direct, a homerun, void of pretense, aiming straight for the sleaziness within Bailuo's heart, exposing his little schemes.

But Bailuo didn't mind; after all, a King who doesn't want more miracles isn't a good Master of Miracles.

"I really do know."

Bailuo: "Does that not bother you?"

"You know?!!"

A'li hadn't expected Bailuo to really know, "Can you tell me?"

Bailuo was somewhat unable to fathom Duke A'li's thoughts; most people, upon hearing such words, might have already reacted.

Exposing a weakness usually wouldn't result in mere excitement followed by such calm.

Unless, unless A'li didn't mind being under a contract, acknowledging a person as her master.

"It's just as you were thinking."

A'li sat on the panda's back, shifting into a more comfortable position lazily, "Being alone is very lonely. I don't harbor the ambition to rule or hold tight to my freedom."

"Furthermore, according to the laws of miracles, if someone can make me acknowledge them as my master, they must indeed have earned my recognition."

A'li certainly didn't think a sly little trickster would qualify to have her serve them: "So I'm genuinely interested to learn, the King capable of contracting such a one as me, what kind of test he must endure."

"You ought to know, right? Seeing that confident look you had before, come on, tell me, I'd like to hear it too, how to conquer me."

Bailuo looked into Duke A'li's eyes, clear and pure; she truly wanted to know the answer, and it wasn't a joke with Bailuo.

Considering their relationship, with Yatun Royal Family and A'li herself having an unclear history, Bailuo came to terms with it.

"Actually, it's nothing much, not difficult at all."

Bailuo said, "It's to strike you down outright."

Here's a question though, how to gain a Miracle having killed someone?

Bailuo thought this might be a special way of contracting, to kill A'li, who he guessed would resurrect, then officially become someone's Miracle Creature.

"Hahaha!!"

However, at the instant A'li heard Bailuo's answer, she suddenly burst into laughter, "So that's how it is! Indeed, worthy of being the method to contract me!"

"Kid!"

A'li looked at Bailuo, "You think killing me once is not difficult? You could ask Saros, ask those whom you consider powerful, how hard, or not, it is to kill me once!"
