Intro
The central plaza of Save University.
Among the hundreds of department buildings, there was one place where the flow of people never ceased.
A name engraved above a massive stone gate.
『Department of Phantasmal Beasts』
The moment the gates opened, countless cries filled the campus along with the wind.
Small bird-like beasts cut through the sky, fox-type beasts ran alongside students, and giant dragon-type beasts circled leisurely in the distant heavens.
Some prepared for class with their beasts, some ate together, and some were scolded by professors simultaneously while playing around.
Here, a phantasmal beast was neither a simple summon nor a weapon.
They were family, friends, and contractors to spend a lifetime with.
『Ding-dong.』
『Notice to all freshmen and transfer students.』 Orientation for the Department of Phantasmal Beasts will begin shortly. All students, please assemble in front of the Temple of Contracts.```
The Temple of Contracts.
The most sacred place in the Department of Phantasmal Beasts.
In the center, the 『Great Tree of Contracts』 which has lived for thousands of years, had taken root, and it is said to be connected to the mana of beasts existing all over the world.
It is not the human who chooses the beast.
The beast chooses the contractor.
Talent, family background, and grades mean nothing.
The contract is completed only at the moment when their hearts connect.
Some students contract with a common beast on their first day, while others fail to contract with even one after years have passed.
Conversely, history records students who were chosen by Legendary or Mythical-grade beasts during their very first contract.
However, that was a miracle that happened perhaps once in hundreds of years.
Students of the Phantasmal Beast Department travel to numerous locations before graduation.
They start their first practical training in the peaceful Grassy Plains,
search for traces of rare beasts in the Great Forest,
commune with aquatic beasts at Clear Lake,
and learn how to protect their contractor in extreme environments at Flame Canyon, Silver Snow Mountain, and the Twilight Desert.
And only students whose skills are recognized earn the right to challenge the Sky Archipelago, Dragon King Peaks, and finally, the Sanctuary of Stars, whose gates are said to open once every few thousand years.
Forming a new contract there was no different from becoming a legend of an era, rather than just an honor.
"Who's the favorite to win the Beast League this time?"
"I heard there are already over ten Elite-grade contractors."
"No, they say a Legendary-grade reaction appeared at the Temple of Contracts."
"Could it be... this year too?"
Amidst the students' expectations and tension, the campus was more excited than usual.
Some to become the best contractor, some to meet a one-of-a-kind partner, and some to find a destiny whose name they don't even know yet—everyone was gathering under the same sky.
