My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse - Chapter 236

Chapter 236: Chapter 236 I Want A Divine Tiger
Perhaps it’s the otherworlders who have been spreading stories about their own worlds. If that’s the case, then those unanswered questions may have found their answers. However, for now, whether otherworlders are still present in their worlds or not isn’t something she needs to dwell on. As long as they aren’t posing a threat to the people of Earth, it’s sufficient.

But if these are merely her theories, then there’s no harm done since they’re just passing thoughts.

“Sister! Can you also help me contract a divine tiger or something similar as my spirit beast?” Keith excitedly asked. Just as Kisha had anticipated, Keith had grasped most of it. Though he was unaware of Kisha’s system, he now understood that she had the means to acquire things from beyond Earth, including the magical creatures he had only read about in novels.

But Keith had never considered the existence of other worlds. He had simply thought that perhaps his sister had a way to bring to life creatures from the imaginary worlds created by writers. If only he knew that those worlds were real, he might have desired to transmigrate there or find a way to do so himself.

Kisha felt a pang of disbelief hearing her brother mention acquiring a divine tiger as his spiritual beast as if he were casually buying a cabbage from the market. She couldn’t help but laugh wryly, especially now that she was left with only 42,000 points. What important things could she even purchase with that?

“Little brother, it’s not that I don’t want to give you what you desire, but it’s simply not possible,” she explained. She wasn’t even sure if a divine tiger from the Murim World or the World of the Gods truly existed.

Even if such a creature existed, its grade would likely require a substantial amount of points, which she currently didn’t possess. Moreover, even if she did, she couldn’t casually promise her brother something like that. Perhaps in the future, if an opportunity arose, she could consider it.

“But hey! I actually have a Tibetan Mastiff as big as a bear, and it’s quite powerful too,” Kisha added. So, even if she couldn’t get the divine tiger her little brother wanted, there was still Zeus, who was just as strong, or almost as strong as Bell with its unique grade.

Moreover, Zeus possesses the ‘Stun’ debuff skill, making it exceptionally powerful in battles, along with its armor-like skin and sonic wave attack. Kisha was confident that Keith would be impressed by Zeus once he saw it.

“But sister, I want a battle pet!” Keith murmured with a pout.

“Who said Zeus isn’t a battle pet? It excels in battle and could even surpass Vulture with its balanced attributes in offense and defense. Zeus is like a walking tank, you know,” Kisha countered, emphasizing Zeus’s capabilities to Keith.

“Who’s Zeus?” Keith asked absentmindedly, his thoughts still fixated on the idea of obtaining the divine tiger, which felt like a dream come true to him.

“Zeus is my Tibetan Mastiff, now one of my battle pets. It can definitely hold its own, so don’t underestimate it!” Kisha added emphatically. She felt it necessary to ensure Zeus wasn’t underestimated, knowing it might appear foolish when not in battle. She didn’t want Keith to be disappointed if Zeus seemed less intimidating than the divine tiger he was eager to have.

Keith fell silent for a moment, lost in thought. “Is that Tibetan Mastiff also a spiritual beast? Or a mutant animal?” he asked, his tone thoughtful. Kisha already knew where this was going.

“It’s a mutant dog with impressive battle prowess,” Kisha explained.

Keith’s eyes lit up. “Really?! Then, maybe if I search in the forest where tigers live, I can come across one with great battle prowess! It could increase my combat efficiency on the field tenfold, maybe even a hundredfold! Since I’m a ‘Mental Support Type,’ it means I need constant protection. In that case, I’ll need a partner to be my sword and shield, filling in my weaknesses,” Keith explained enthusiastically.

Kisha felt relieved that her brother didn’t just want a divine tiger for novelty, but because he had already considered his own shortcomings. He wanted a bodyguard who could accompany him throughout battles, protecting him from ambushes or sudden attacks while he focused on providing support.

Little did Kisha know, this idea was just something Keith came up with while trying to argue his case with his sister. Otherwise, she might have tried to get him a mutt instead. But he wasn’t keen on that idea. He desired the imposing and gallant tiger, known as the king of the jungle, rather than settling for a mere man’s best friend that would only bark and run around.

It’s not that he looked down on dogs, but he firmly believed that tigers would be far more useful in battles. However, he didn’t anticipate that once he acquired his tiger, he would find himself envying his sister for having Zeus. Zeus turned out to be much stronger and more imposing than his tiger, capable of intimidating and overpowering it, winning any confrontation decisively. But that was a story for the future.

“Well then, I’ll remember this. If I come across a tiger with battle prowess that complements yours, I’ll do my best to tame it and give it to you. But you’re not allowed to go searching for it yourself,” Kisha explained gravely to Keith. “There are more corrupted mutant animals, insects, and plants out there, and they’re extremely dangerous.” She wanted to caution him in case he felt impatient and decided to search for one on his own.

“Corrupted mutants?” Keith tilted his head to the side, pondering.

“Yes, those are the typical mutant animals, insects, and plants. They’re similar to zombies in that they attack humans as a food source. Although they may not look like rotting zombies in appearance, their genes have mutated and adapted to the virus, creating more powerful creatures. They can even be more formidable than awakened superhumans and are similar to evolved zombies. There’s very little chance that an animal can integrate with the virus and gain power without being corrupted, often enhancing their primal instincts to survive.”

“Doesn’t that make you really lucky to find a mutated one that wasn’t corrupted?” Keith exclaimed, pondering the possibility that there might be a small number of mutant animals out there that haven’t been corrupted by the virus. He felt like his chances of finding a suitable battle pet were slim and started to feel dejected.

“Don’t feel dejected just yet. While the chances of finding a mutated animal that hasn’t been corrupted are slim, it doesn’t mean there’s zero chance. We might come across one in the future. In the meantime, focus on yourself. Besides, I have a feeling I might have better luck than you and find one sooner or later,” Kisha said, jesting to lighten her little brother’s mood.

Keith nodded and asked another question. “If there are mutated animals that get corrupted by the virus and some that can successfully integrate with it, does that apply to plants and insects too?”

Kisha understood his concerns and responded, “That’s correct. Just as there are corrupted animals, insects, and plants, there are also those that remain uncorrupted. Especially with plants, they often have special properties that can benefit humanity. They can excrete useful substances for creating life-saving medicines or emit mist to protect their surroundings as a shield against intruders with malicious intentions.”
