Chapter 200: Chapter 188: Silver Level Magical Beast: Volibear

Selena shot Kangbi’Er a look, then dove straight back under the water.

In her eyes, Kangbi’Er, who had once run rampant in the Kala Coral Tribe, was now nothing more than a useless fish.

Seeing Selena treat him this way, Kangbi’Er’s expression turned bitter. Having lost all his power, he now had to live by her whims at the bottom of the artificial lake every day.

’I hope that white bear forgets about me...’

Kangbi’Er shivered as he watched the fading lightning. Without hesitation, he followed Selena’s lead and returned to the bottom of the water.

「In Vilia’s room.」

The booming sound of thunder startled Vilia awake.

"Why is it thundering?"

Vilia used to be afraid of thunder, but ever since she discovered Wally could discharge electricity, she no longer felt scared during thunderstorms. In fact, she felt a great sense of security.

’It doesn’t sound like it’s raining, though...’

Vilia glanced at the sky outside the window and, for some reason, thought of Wally.

"Wally..."

Vilia suddenly remembered how weak Wally had been these past few days. After a moment’s thought, she got dressed, left her room, and ran towards the stairs.

"Hm?"

At the same time, Vili was jolted awake from his sleep.

He looked out the window at the flash of lightning that had turned night into day and let out a long breath.

A weight was finally lifted from his heart.

’A Silver Level Magical Beast!’

A sharp glint flashed in Vili’s eyes.

Without a doubt, Wally had advanced!

This was much faster than Vili had expected. Based on his earlier predictions, Wally should have needed about five days of absorbing external thunder energy to advance. However, it seemed Wally’s efficiency had far surpassed his expectations.

From now on, White Bear Town would have a Silver Level Magical Beast as its core strength.

Vili didn’t hesitate. He got up, changed his clothes, and instead of taking the stairs, leaped directly from the third floor.

A height of about seven or eight meters was nothing to Vili.

Wally’s den was right downstairs, visible the moment he landed.

"Hm?"

The moment Vili landed after leaping from the floor above, he saw that the ground was a complete mess.

The once-flat ground was now covered in cracks and grooves. Rubble was scattered everywhere, and the grass and soil were in disarray—a total wreck.

As for Wally’s large den, it had been reduced to splinters.

Only Wally was left, squatting on the spot with his tongue out, looking as energetic as ever.

When he saw Vili appear before him, Wally let out a low "AWOO" and sidled up to him.

Before his advancement, the terribly weak Wally had only been able to fall into a peaceful sleep because Vili was by his side. Vili was the person Wally was closest to.

So, upon seeing Vili, Wally’s first instinct was to go over and show off his achievement.

’I’ve advanced, so Vili will definitely be happy.’

And it was true. Seeing Wally’s successful advancement, Vili felt a sense of relief.

After all, not every Magical Beast’s advancement was successful. Many faced all sorts of hardships during the process, and some could never make another leap in their entire lives.

So, seeing Wally successfully advance to a Silver Level Magical Beast, Vili felt both gratified and overjoyed.

"You’re advancing even faster than I am."

Vili patted Wally’s head. "From now on, I’ll have to put more energy into my own advancement to Grand Knight."

Ever since advancing to Senior Knight, Vili had been focusing more on managing the affairs of White Bear Town, and his own training had mostly slowed down. He hadn’t even used the 8 attribute points he gained from his last advancement.

Now, seeing Wally achieve his advancement, Vili felt a little spurred on. Being surpassed by his own Magical Beast... it was a strange feeling.

"Hm?"

Vili took a closer look at Wally and noticed that besides the increase in his Elemental Power, his appearance had also changed.

Wally, who was originally the size of a large dog, had now gotten a bit bigger. The increase wasn’t in his length, however, but in his width.

Before, Wally was fat, but he was an oval.

But now, while still an oval, he was getting closer and closer to being a perfect circle.

In addition, Wally’s pupils had also changed.

Before, Wally’s eyes were black. Only when he used his Thunder Power would they flash with an ethereal blue.

But now, the black in Wally’s pupils had completely turned to a deep navy blue.

Under the moonlight, Wally’s eyes looked like glittering navy-blue gems.

"Wally, I think you should learn from Vilia. Try to eat a little less and slim down."

This was the first time Vili had paid such close attention to Wally’s physique, even though he knew getting fatter was related to his advancement.

In any case, Wally was now the symbol of White Bear Town.

The name of White Bear Town and the Ferren Family’s crest were both based on Wally.

But now, the symbol of White Bear Town had turned into a ball, which affected the town’s image.

"Awoo."

Wally nodded emphatically, indicating that Vili was right.

Seeing Wally like this, Vili smiled. Any little movement he made now had a charmingly silly quality to it.

As man and bear were interacting, the Personal Guards whom Vili had ordered to stay away hurried over.

Just moments ago, lightning had struck from the sky, accompanied by the sound of rocks shattering on the ground. This had put the Personal Guards on high alert, and they came to investigate.

They just hadn’t expected the Lord Baron to have arrived here first.

"There’s nothing to see here. Continue your patrols and keep watch for the night."

Vili waved his hand, dismissing the Personal Guards.

Seeing this, the Personal Guards saluted Vili and left. However, a sliver of doubt lingered in each of their minds.

The wreckage on the ground clearly indicated that a lightning strike had just occurred.

Recalling that Baron Vili and Lord Volibear had also been on the scene after the massive thunderstorm near the artificial lake some time ago, the Personal Guards began to form some suspicions.

But none of them voiced their thoughts, remaining silent instead.

Gossiping about the Lord Baron behind his back would lead to severe punishment if discovered.

"Wally!"

Vilia came jogging down the stairs, and as soon as she reached the bottom, she saw the rubble-strewn ground.

Vilia’s heart skipped a beat, thinking something had happened to Wally.

She quickened her pace, only to see Vili and Wally interacting with each other.

"Wally!"

Vilia shouted again and hurried over.

When Wally saw Vilia arrive, he glanced at her and made a grunting sound as a greeting.

As long as Vili was around, Vilia was always just an afterthought. It was like this every time.

"What happened here?"

Seeing Wally’s attitude, Vilia gave his butt a kick.

Of course, with her strength, it wasn’t even enough to count as an itch for Wally.

"Wait, Wally, how did you end up like this?"

Before Vili could answer her question, Vilia suddenly noticed Wally’s transformation.

Before, you could say Wally was just rather chubby, but now, he was roly-poly fat.

"And your eyes."

Vilia leaned in closer, and when she saw Wally’s navy-blue, gem-like eyes, she let out a gasp of amazement.

"So pretty..."

Vilia wanted to poke Wally’s eyes, but she was afraid of hurting him, so she stopped herself.

"Vili, what happened here just now?"

Vilia studied Wally for a long time before turning to ask Vili.

Vili paused for a moment, then replied, "Wally got stronger."

"Stronger?"

A curious look appeared in Vilia’s eyes.

’Just a few days ago, he looked like he was on the verge of death. How could he have suddenly recovered tonight, and even gotten stronger?’

She didn’t know anything about Magical Beasts, so she was a little confused.

"That’s right. The Wally we see now is the number one master in White Bear Town."

Vili glanced at Wally, considering it a form of praise.

Hearing this, Wally instantly puffed out his chest.

At the same time, however, his round belly also stuck out.

Compared to his previous image, Wally now seemed thirty percent sillier.
