Chapter 398: "Contracting The Godfather"
The Godfather spirit could only grumble as he tapped Ainsley's forehead.
[Lil lass, this lord is a powerful spirit. You might suffer a bit when making a contract with this lord.]
[Eh? How so– ]
[For example, this lord might have more control over your body when this lord possesses your body…]
The degree of contract also affected the shaman.
If the spirit was way more powerful than the shaman, the shaman could lose their body control when the spirit possessed them and would never be able only to borrow their ability.
It's not dangerous, not at all, but it could be uncomfortable to some shamans.
It's like watching your own body move without your control. Uncomfortable, right?
When Ainsley heard of it from the Godfather, she paused. The baby pondered for a moment before nodding.
[Okay, no worries!]
The Godfather actually wished for Ainsley to reject him. But she turned out to be tougher than she looked. Thus, the young man could sigh as he tapped the baby's forehead once more.
[Circulate your shaman energy for a moment. Let's make a contract. After that, let's try this whole possession thing.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[O-okay!] Ainsley immediately closed her eyes and calculated the purple energy from her energy core. At first, it felt rough and not smooth at all.
The purple energy didn't come out of the energy core as fast as when Ainsley used her other energies.
However, after a few minutes, the baby finally managed to summon out a wave of purple energy and condensed it onto the palm of her hand.
[There. H-how do I make a contract?] Ainsley was so nervous that she forgot to use her cutesy baby language.
She looked up at the Godfather and saw the young man touching the purple bulb on her hand.
[Simple. This Lord will be consuming this purple energy, and after that, your symbol will appear on my forehead while this lord's symbol will appear on the back of your hand.]
After saying that, the Godfather immediately lowered his head and brought his face closer to Ainsley's palm. Before she could even react, the young man already swallowed the purple bulb on her palm.
Chomp.
Nom. Nom. Nom.
The Godfather lifted his head, and after consuming the purple bulb, a purple dolphin suddenly appeared on his forehead.
The dolphin was curling its body, yet its clear blue eyes looked straight into the onlooker. It really resembled Ainsley in a sense.
At the same time, a green-ish black cobra picture appeared on the back of Ainsley's left hand.
The cobra wasn't a detailed or realistic-looking tattoo, but it was a chibi, anime-style cobra wearing a mafia hat. Its sharp golden eyes were staring into Ainsley as if about to kill her in one go.
That's definitely the Godfather's symbol.
After exchanging symbols, Ainsley could feel an invisible connection to the Godfather, as if they were a family member from the same bloodline.
Of course, other than that, Ainsley didn't feel anything else.
[...that's it? The contwact is successful?] Ainsley rubbed her left hand and looked at the cobra tattoo. The cobra's tongue was sticking out, yet it looked cute rather than intimidating…
[Yeah, that's it. It's really simple, isn't it?] The Godfather nodded. He also acted as if this contract wasn't a big deal.
However, if Rie from the shaman guild knew about how Ainsley made her first contract, she would definitely faint.
Making a contract with the first dead spirit isn't that easy! Heck no!
First, the shaman has to find a dead spirit that wants to be their partner.
This step is usually the hardest because the newly-awakened shamans are usually 10-year-old kids or teens.
The dead spirits are all legends, and they won't want to make a contract with a snotty brat like the shamans.
Thus, the average shamans could only contract an animal spirit, a beast spirit, a monster spirit, or other spirits aside from the humanoid spirits.
Getting a humanoid spirit is already considered lucky for most shamans. Either the shaman is a prodigy, or they're lucky.
After passing through this phase next, the shaman makes a contract with the spirit. The stronger the spirit, the harder it is to imprint them with your energy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven when the spirit can swallow your energy, if your energy is too faint and weak, you will need to retry it a few times.
Another problem is when the spirit's energy finally gets into your body as a symbol or tattoo. Your body might reject the foreign energy if you haven't spent a lot of time with the spirit.
Thus, before making a contract, the shaman usually has to train their energy for several months, get along with the spirit candidate, etc.
There has been no one who immediately contracted a high-rank spirit upon awakening their ability!
Ainsley is the first. And her energy is actually strong enough to connect with someone as strong as the Godfather…
It must be thanks to how they have lived together for a few weeks already. And how they have a strong bond with each other.
Anyway...contracting a dead spirit isn't as easy as it looks like. Only Ainsley and the Godfather are anomalies because they're all...abnormal.
After imprinting each other with their own symbols, the two looked at each other and nodded.
[Uncwle Godfathel, ywou can now try to possess me!]
[Okay. But remember, keep circulating your shaman energy. Else, this lord will get kicked out of your body, and the show is over.]
[Owkay!]
Ainsley didn't know how long she could keep circulating the purple energy, but she vowed to try her best.
[I'm weady!]
[Good. This Lord will be possessing you now. Don't resist, don't freak. Don't do anything stupid, or we might get into an accident!]
