They were both back in the living room a few minutes later, sitting on the same sofa. They stayed silent for a few minutes. Olivia had taken a shower and was wearing a white dress and blue skirt. The sweet smell of her perfume filled Nathan's nose. Her blonde hair, soft and shiny, caught the light in an elegant way.

Nathan smiled and looked at her with affection. "What was the result of the last attack? And what happened to the people after I slept for two days?" he asked.

Olivia looked at him blankly and tried to answer, but nothing came out. In fact, she didn't understand what she had to tell him about all this either. Instead, she focused on watching his face, looking at every detail. She stared at his beautiful eyes, then moved to look at his long eyelashes. He had very nice eyebrows too, which helped create his perfect face. His lips seemed like the most amazing part of his features to her. The same could be said for the rest of his body, which was incredibly well-formed and handsome.

Olivia closed her eyes and took a deep breath. 'Oh my gosh,' she thought, 'what am I thinking? Am I too tired?'

"The attack has been stopped." she finally answered. "and there have been many casualties and damage to public facilities. The military set up shelters to help those who survived the attack."

Olivia pondered if she had forgotten something. "Many players have banded together to form large alliances. Thousands have already registered. People are hoping that with proper planning and strategy, the next attack will be easier to handle."

"Should we join those alliances?" Ethan asked.

"It could put you under their control," she replied, "but I'm not sure what their intentions are. If you want to, I'll go with you."

Ethan thought it would be better to join a larger group to increase their chances of survival, but he agreed with Olivia to wait until he was sure which group was right for them. He nodded in agreement.

In the last few minutes, Ethan noticed that Olivia was calmer and seemed more compliant. He wondered if it was because of their contract. He didn't want her to lose herself, and he wanted to make it clear that the contract was just to work together, not to control her as he had feared.

“I will help you get stronger, and we'll do this together. I can't promise you much, but I can promise you that I'll do my best to keep you safe.” he said.

Olivia nodded at Ethan's words. She then picked up the glass of water on the table and took a sip, no longer facing Ethan.

"Alright, I'd like to try out my new ability. Is there a spot big enough for me to do it?"

"There's a field in the backyard," Olivia replied.

Olivia took Ethan to the back of her house, where there was an empty lot filled with grass and a few trees.

The lot was still surrounded by a tall fence, indicating it was part of Olivia's property. The house was located in a remote area, with no other houses around and only surrounded by rice fields and forest edges.

He thought that this could be a great place for her family to gather on weekends. He then decided to try out the power of the ring he had just got.

"Summon Mutant Wolf!"

Instantly, a blue and black-colored energy surged out of the Ring that he was wearing and fell to the ground. It began to take shape and form the appearance of a 1.5-meter-tall wolf.

The Mutant Wolf that appeared before him was different from the one he had met before. This Mutant Wolf had a body that seemed to be made of smoke, and his black fur rippled like fire.

Olivia took a step back when she saw the Mutant Wolf appear before her. She then realized it was something created by Ethan's power, and her admiration grew.

Ethan was amazed by the creation, a Mutant Wolf that answered his call and looked obedient. It didn't look like a monster but rather a mass of condensed shadows.

Ethan tested his new pet to see how well it responded to commands. He asked it to sit and stand and even gave orders while mumbling. Surprisingly, the Mutant Wolf followed his orders.

Ethan wondered what he could do to further strengthen his bond with his pet. He thought out loud, "What can I do to increase your level?"

The Mutant Wolf came closer to him and sniffed him. He then thought to himself: "Does it want something from me? Perhaps something Monsters like? Monster Crystals?"

He thought for a moment and asked, "Can you understand me?"

The wolf nodded and looked at him with its red eyes.

Ethan acted quickly and gave the Mutant Wolf some Monster Crystals. The Mutant Wolf accepted them and ate them.

Ethan felt a wave of relief but also a touch of anxiety. The last crystal he had was now in the stomach of his new pet. He wondered, "What can I do?"

Ethan fed all his Crystals to the Mutant Wolf in front of him, stopping when their levels were equal. This gave the Wolf Stats Points, just like Players do when they level up. Ethan chose to allocate most of its Stats Points to Strength to make it stronger in battle and a little bit to Constitution to make it more resilient.

Ethan pondered what to name his new pet and asked Olivia for advice. "Do you have any ideas for a name for this beast?"

Olivia walked over and examined the beast. "Since I've always wanted a dog, let's give it a name Fang." she said.

Fang bowed politely towards Olivia as if thanking her for the compliment, then turned around, wagging its tail. It looked back at her again with those curious red eyes.

"Well done Fang," Olivia replied happily.

She then looked at Ethan and smiled sweetly. "I like it, Oppa..."

"Oppa?"

"Huum." She answered and nodded her head. "You are older than me, and I want to call you with more respect, I'm sure Ethan Oppa is the right choice... hihi."
