I Become Baby Mafia Boss-Chapter 2297 "Midnight Courtship"
Chapter 2297 "Midnight Courtship"
Ainsley was once again speechless at what happened to the spirits inside the cave. To think there was a correct order to choose shamans as if they were picking cabbages...
Well, most shamans out there hunted down spirits and made contracts with them through a duel until the spirit acknowledged the shaman's strength.
Here, the spirits could see at a glance which shaman would suit them the most and they were also more sensitive to the strength of these shamans.
Because the shamans that came to this place were limited in number, the spirits had to pick shamans on their own initiative and the shamans had a low status here.
Thus, shamans came here to be 'chosen', unlike when they usually came to places full of spirits to hunt down spirits and chose spirits as they liked.
Here, they were the ones being chosen.
Many shamans from the guild who had entered this place a few times all took pride in being chosen by a lot of spirits.
Because fellow beast spirits and plant spirits could take a fancy on the same shaman, the group would gather together with their chosen shaman at midnight.
Then, the spirits would compete with each other to get the shaman they fancied, just like how shamans out there competed with fellow shamans when they liked the same spirit.
The time when the spirits fought for the shamans they liked was called a duel for honor, or midnight courtship, which symbolized the effort of those spirits who wanted to get their favorite shamans.
The shamans who could come here were already 'filtered' just because of the remote place, the various dangers on the way to this mountain.
Not to mention that even if all shamans could enter the domain, they had to climb the mountain painstakingly.
If spirits in the mountain challenged them to a fight, they had to fight. If they won, they might get more appreciation from the spirits, and the losers would be kicked out of the domain.
Even though the domain owner generously let in a lot of shamans and people related to spirits and shamans, the owner also set up a secret rule to limit the number of people who could come in.
The domain owner didn't want random shamans and random people with spirit items yet weak strength, so the domain owner had secretly filtered those who could enter the domain.
The people who could enter the domain had all been 'approved' by the domain owner as strong people, at least worthy of making contracts with the spirits all over the mountain.
Even those who weren't shamans, as long as they were strong, they could be sparring partners for the spirits, honing the spirits' battle experience and abilities, which would also benefit the non-shaman strong people.
Judging from this alone, Ainsley felt that the domain owner should really be a wise beast.
Any spirits who went to the domain and lived here would be better than many spirits out there.
Unfortunately, humanoid spirits from various races weren't allowed to live permanently here, so most of them still lived in different caves outside.
Shamans also usually liked humanoid spirits more than beast spirits, even if the spirits could transform to humanoid forms.
Not to mention the small number of beast and plant spirits....
The informant felt that 90% of beast spirits and plant spirits all over Godlif Country should be in this domain, while the remaining spirits were either contracted already or scattered somewhere. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
"If you find spirits who take a fancy to you and they give you something, just accept it, " the informant reminded Ainsley with a slight envy in his eyes.
"When the duel of honor or the midnight courtship starts, you can show the items you receive from those spirits, and those spirits will discuss on their own about who will be your contracted spirit."
Of course, the shaman could refuse the 'courtship', but if they wanted to refuse, they had to fight the final winner who took a fancy on them to prove that they were worthy to reject the 'courtship' of the spirit.
Maybe because the spirits here were mostly beasts and plant spirits, which was why they were more barbaric and had such a unique tradition.
Ainsley listened to the news with gusto, but deep down, she didn't think that she would be popular among the beasts and plant spirits because she already had two contracted beasts here with her.
Humanoid spirits could only choose shamans after the midnight courtship, which means they only got the leftovers of what other spirits didn't want.
Still, the shamans who came all the way to this place would be grateful even if they didn't get any beast or plant spirit.
The humanoid spirits who could come to this place were also good!
Ainsley wanted to contract the first ancestor, and if he did come here, the man would also have to wait for other spirits to choose their shamans before he could choose the shaman he wanted.
The leftover shamans could also 'propose' to humanoid spirits left in the arena, and this was what Ainsley aimed to do.
Ainsley didn't believe that she would also be popular among beast and plant spirits.
To be honest, she didn't even know why the humanoid spirits who met her just now were enthusiastic about her.
What she didn't know was that, aside from her young age and the strength that she possessed beyond her age, many spirits here were not completely closed from the outside world, so they also got some popular news about people outside.
They were especially interested in new rising stars from the shaman circle.
They would even ask the domain owner to send an invitation to guide those potential shamans to enter the domain!
