[Congratulations to the Host for reaching the Spirit Warrior realm within a day, you have simply achieved an unbelievable feat Host!] Nora congratulates him.

"Nora, it's all because of you! If you hadn't been by my side, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish such a feat, and my mother would have died!" Yuan humbly expressed his gratitude to Nora for being with him; one should know when to be humble, and he is well aware that without Nora, he would be nothing more than a pitiful loser in this world of talents.

[Host! You're exaggerating; it's what you've accomplished with your talent, and don't give all the credit to me for nothing, as I'm just a tool to assist you!] Nora stated. Yuan appears to be a little too humble for her.

"But I don't just see you as a tool, Nora. You are a person to me, a friend who assists me!"

[Thank you for thinking of me as a friend, and host! Aside from that, why don't you check your system storage? You haven't looked at the other rewards you received, nor have you looked at some of the system pop-ups.] Nora reminded him of the rewards he'd gotten as part of the starter gift pack; aside from the cultivation technique, he hadn't looked at the other items.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "Since you brought it up, I almost forgot to check about those prizes because I was so enthused about the whole cultivation process." He claimed that even though he was conscious of the earlier rewards, he neglected to check them because he was eager to engage in cultivation in the flesh after reading about how amazing cultivators are.

"First, Nora, show me the specifics of those notifications!"

[Alright!] Nora said.

<Ding! Congratulations on completing the first hidden mission>

<Hidden Mission: Reach First Level Spirit Warrior realm> (completed)

<Difficulty:C+>

<Reward: Low Earth rank Sword technique>

<Ding! Because the Host has surpassed the anticipation of the system by a lot! The reward has been changed!>

<Ding! The host has been rewarded with the Spirit-Grade Sword technique 'Dominating Sword Strike' technique, please check on the system storage>

< Dominating Sword Strike>

<Rank: Middle Spirit Grade>

<Discription: Consumers 500Qi. The user must wield a sword to activate. Cover the sword with Profound energy that can split a bolder with ease. >

"Hmm... 'Dominating sword Strike'... It has a nice ring to it. I like it!" Yuan exclaimed as he read the name of the sword technique he just acquired.

[The most important aspect of this sword technique is that, despite being a middle-grade Spirit rank technique, it is comparable to a low-grade Heaven rank technique. It is an extraordinary sword technique that matches your current cultivation.] Nora explained to Yuan why, despite being a Middle-Grade Spirit level, this sword skill is so unique.

Yuan listened intently to what she said and merely nodded in agreement. Even if Nora doesn't tell him, he can infer from the name of the method that it is a potent one.

"Nora, please show me every award I've gotten so far!"

[Certainly, Host!] Nora just opened the system storage and showed him the reward.

(A/N: I have changed the "inventory" to" storage" because I feel like I am writing a typical Japanese isekai if I use the "inventory" word and I don't like it.)

"Although the majority of the rewards are essentially from the beginner's gift pact, there are some worthwhile rewards. However, what is this mysterious box thing?" Yuan stated as he expressed confusion as he stared at the box, which features question marks on every side.

[I believe it's a gacha! Why don't you give it a shot? You never know, you might find a treasure.] Nora stated as she looked at the perplexed Yuan.

"Alright! " Yuan responded.

[Ding! Would you like to open the mysterious box? Yes/No]

"Yes"

[Congratulations! You have opened the mystery box, and as a reward, you received a dragon egg!]

—

<Grade:Ancient>

<Discription: An egg from the Chaos Dragon Race.>

—

"What!... A dragon egg?... Is this for real?" Yuan was astounded to see an egg covered in crimson and black scales, with some golden lines strewn about. The 5-foot-diameter egg appeared in front of him out of nowhere. The most shocking aspect of this is that it is a dragon egg and a very rare one at that.

Yuan is quite familiar with dragons because they are a popular theme in cultivation stories and are frequently portrayed as mystical, strong beings with superior intelligence to most sentient beings, including humans. They are distinguished by their long, slender bodies that resemble serpents and their razor-sharp claws; their bodies are covered in scales, which boosts their protection; some dragons have wings, while others do not. He was therefore completely astonished when he saw the dragon's egg.

[Host, you should make a master-servant agreement with this dragon egg! It will be a valuable asset to you in the future; you should know that dragons are at the top of the world's food chain!] Nora stated.

"Do I have to spill my blood to make a contract like that in those cultivation s from my past life?"

[That's right, just drop a few drops of your blood mixed with your Qi and feed the egg; if the egg accepts your blood and Qi, the contract will be formed, and the dragon will be your servant!] said, Nora. She understands what Yuan is saying because she has seen his memories of his previous life.

"So it's the same procedures in those s; is this some kind of coincidence?"

[Host! Perhaps your former world holds some dark secrets—how much you think can't just be a coincidence! Who knows, maybe there's a way for you to go back to your former world in the future.] Nora stated that she was considering the situation.

The fact that the inhabitants of the earth are so knowledgeable about cultivation cannot simply be a coincidence; there must be some enigmatic clans or sects working to hide this information from the general public. If not then, how would you accurately describe it?

Then he pulled the Blue Jade Sword from the system, and a 43-inch-long weapon that resembled a Chinese sword instantly materialized in his grasp.

"I didn't anticipate it being this heavy." It was not difficult for him to hold the sword, he stated as he held it in his hand.

[Of course, it would be heavy. After all, it's a spirit sword.] Nora responded.

He then created a tiny cut on his fingertips, and a drop of blood formed, which for a minute startled him because it had a golden tint mixed with the red blood and could only be seen with a very close look.

After giving the blood drop some thought, he used Qi to scatter a few droplets of it over the dragon egg.

The dragon egg started to tremble with excitement as soon as his blood spilled over it, and then it stopped and was encircled by a dark crimson Qi.

<Ding! Will the host accept Xi Meili as your servant? [Yes/No]>

"Yes!" he responded immediately without a second thought.

A crimson tattoo with a few golden lines appeared on his right arm, he has a dragon tattoo in blood red that is roughly 18 cm long. A smile spread across his handsome face as he noticed the tattoo. He sensed a connection with the egg as if they could read each other's feelings.

<Ding! The host has successfully formed a contract with Xi Meili]

<Congratulations! Because the host is the first human to marry a Chaos Dragon as his wife; you have been awarded the unique title 'Husband of the Chaos Dragon' >

<Discription: Bearing the title, Your reputation within most of the dragon race always will be high and greatly respected by the dragon race. Within the dragon territory, your cultivation speed will be boosted by 20 percent.>

—

<Congratulations! Because you have obtained an Ancient Beast as a servant, you have been awarded the unique title 'Ancient Beast Tamer'! >

—

"..."

"Huh?"

He checked both of his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing anything, and then he took another look at the clear screen in front of him. It remained the same.

'Did I just get myself an 'Egg' as my wife?..' Yuan said inside his head in a confused manner, looking at the system screen.

"Th. This... This is real!"

He glanced at the dragon egg's status on his system window, shock written all over his face.

"What the hell!.... How could this be? I can't remember ever agreeing to a marriage contract with anyone! Without a doubt not with an egg!"

Yuan exclaimed in shock since he was certain that the contract he had made with the dragon egg wasn't for marriage.

[It's not that you have a marriage contract with Xi Meili; rather, most Divine Beasts recognize their contracted master as their husband because they are too proud to be someone's servant but it hasn't happened in a while, so it's no wonder she acknowledges you as her husband!] Yuan nodded his head in agreement as Nora explained the scenario to him.

"Now I see... So I got an egg for a wife? Apparently, it's a dragon egg, and she can take human form later; that's a good thing, but where should I put this egg?" He muttered with a confused look on his face.

[You are, Host! By the way, it's late but anyway, Congratulations on getting married! ] Nora said with a cheerful voice.

As Yuan left the room, Anna and the other people remained silent for a while since they were at a loss for words.

"Mistress... Do you truly think it's okay for me to start cultivating? Do I deserve it?" The three of them were silent until Emma asked in a quiet voice. She wasn't sure in her heart that she was worthy of learning such a precise technique because she is only a servant in this family.

"Emma! How many times have I told you that you shouldn't view yourself as this house's servant? Have you forgotten that you are a highly significant family member, as Yuan has previously stated?" Amma inquired, casting a wary gaze at Emma.

"My apologies, Mistress... I swear it won't happen yet again!" With a dazzling smile on her lovely face, Emma said.

Lily greeted Emma with a warm grin and a light touch of her hands. "Mom is right, Big Sis! You shouldn't think of yourself as an outsider; you are extremely important to our family and my lovely big sister!" Lily emphasized.

She chuckled as she observed her daughter's closeness to Emma.

"Okay, you two should get started with your cultivation. Cultivation is the answer to your cure, Mom, as Little Yuan has already stated. Today I'll prepare the dinner." Lily got out of bed and exited the room, closing the door behind her.

Emma and Anna were left alone in the room after Lily had left.

"Emma, we should begin our cultivation as Yuan and Lily suggested," Anna spoke in a soothing, calm voice.

"Absolutely, Mistress..." Emma agreed with Anna's statement.

As Yuan had explained, the two of them then sat in the lotus position, and they carefully opened the technique book.

As they opened the book, they noticed some odd writing on each page in an odd language; there was too much gibberish for them to comprehend a single word. They closed their eyes subconsciously as they began to feel more at ease and comfortable.

The mysterious words and symbols in the book became less gibberish—they started to comprehend words and information that they had never known existed in this magical world being fed to their minds. They are astounded by the knowledge they have gained from the book, and how they have gained it was simply a miracle.

After an hour, a cold sensation began to permeate every portion of their body. Their prior feeling of tiredness had been replaced by one of energy. Yes! They have successfully attained the status of first-level spirit apprentices, and they are now more than just ordinary people.

"So this is how it feels to become a cultivator? I've never felt this active or wonderful." Anna yelled while nodding her head and noticing the changes in her physique.

"Mistress, I feel like I've been born again!" Emma exclaimed in a happy tone.

"Our boy gave us a fresh life, right big sister?" Inside Anna's head, there was a cold but lovely voice speaking.
