Martial Arts Returnee's Game Broadcast-Chapter 377: The Dangers of Spirit Contracts
[Don't Fall for Spirit Contract Viral Scams][853]
"Spirit Random Contracts are crazy, with a 99% chance of getting a dud.
Most of the common-grade spirits, which make up the majority, are utterly useless.
The only benefit to raising a common-grade spirit is that it doesn’t take much mana to feed them?
To draw out any power from a spirit beyond the mana you give them, you must offer a tribute related to their name or something similar.
The more insignificant the tribute, like embers from a campfire or bubbles from freshwater fish, the better.
They're easy to get and not expensive either.
But just because you give them something doesn't mean they'll listen to you, and they’re certainly not useful.
Hunting with a spirit?
The whole "pet raising" vibe?
Not a thing hahaha.
Don't believe me? Go ahead and try raising one.
No, please, do it! I can't be the only one suffering here."
Came for a pilgrimageI read this and won the lotteryTaking down this post ^^Wow, this was exactly what I wanted to know, thank youReally?Will it really work ^^ If my spirit is garbage...HahahahahahahaSpirit owners, doomed to failBut you still love them, right?The Pong Pong brothers trust no one but their pets, their little spirit friends, whom they’ve chosen as their final resting place, only to get betrayed!Doesn’t higher grade mean better?You get common-grade spirits, so of course it sucks hahaha
Although not mentioned in the post, higher-grade spirits have their own set of problems.
On the other hand, high-ranking spirits consume an enormous amount of mana.
The conditions for borrowing their power are fierce.
A fire spirit born from the World Tree's burning flames.
A completed form of a handsome boy spirit.
If you try to use their power with a simple command like "Burn the World Tree", you'd be the first one to be burned alive.
So you’re not burning the World Tree, huh?
Wanna die instead? You think you can survive the fire?
"Ahhh please save me! It’s burning! Spirit, your massive mace is too hot!"
Though listeners might think this is a joke, the fiery boy spirit is genuinely swinging his flaming mace, threatening his contractor.
If you want something from me, at least show some sincerity, will you, Contractor without a shred of sincerity?
Do you think the street trees look like the World Tree? If I tell you to eat anything, you’ll eat it, even if it’s dog food, right?
"Well, at least we’ve made a contract, so you should help me hunt... Ahhh! I’m sorry! I’ll do better, please, please save me!!"
If you fail to prepare a tribute to satisfy the spirit’s request, you’ll face rebellion from the spirit.
And the poor player suffering from this rebellion is Eom Gil-dong.
HahahahahaThis is an SSR?Why did I get a super rare one and it’s a trap card? hahahaThank goodness I got a normal one insteadGil-dong is just paying for his sinsOf course, he would get a spirit like that
The spirit summoning process starts off backward. Common-grade spirits are actually the best, and higher rarity ones are worse.
The tributes you need are ridiculously expensive.
There’s no bottomless pit for money like this.
Rich and strong players can manage with moderately high-grade spirits, getting good help without problems, but there’s a limit to that.
If you summon a completed spirit, even a rich guy like Eom Gil-dong would go bankrupt.

"Why did I summon a super rare spirit and just lose all my money without even getting to try it in the arena...?"
HahahaSpirits are always like thisI agreeWhen the wind spirit caused the hurricane, I had a feeling these guys weren’t normalBack then, we thought it was just that one guyI agreeIt looks like a fairy now!Fairy (Disaster Damage 13 trillion 820 billion)
You can’t send a spirit alone into the arena, as it involves too much cost.
Even asking for small favors means you need to offer tribute, but sending them to solo fight in the arena every time?
Hiring them as apprentices?
Not a chance.
In this sense, high-grade spirits are actually worse when summoned.
This isn’t just limited to the fire spirit or Eom Gil-dong’s case either.
"Ugh, this lowly creature is my contractor?"
"I hate this. I want to go back."
"I won’t respond to a summons unless you offer 100 shiny pearls from the deep sea as tribute."
"If you have a problem, break the contract!"
Mutually agreed contracts can be terminated.
It’s better to break a contract with an unbearable spirit and find a new one.
"How dare this low creature not even bother collecting tribute and contracts with a baby spirit?!
This is filthy! Trash! Blasphemous lowlife!"
Double contracts result in either getting betrayed by the previous spirit or being debuffed and attacked by an angry spirit.
What is this, a cursed soul summoning?I feel like I summoned a cursed soul instead of a spiritThe water spirit has cursed me with a runny nose... How do I get rid of this curse, please help! 😢😢Just blow it outThat’s not what I meant, damnHahahahahaNot wrong thoughIf your nose is clogged, just blow it out hahahahaThe spirit I contracted with is probably clogged too. Every time I try to talk, it just goes huh huh and throws stones at me, covering me in dirt and torturing me hahaha it’s so cute hahahaPoor guy, you have a mud spoonYeah, but better than a snot spoonShut up, I got a light spiritHahahahahahaWelcome, debt spoonHunting ground monster aggro, debt spoonWhy don’t they call those with light spirits "light spoons"? Why do they call them "debt spoons"?Monsters come and gear durability just explodes, so they end up in debt, that’s why they call them debt spoonsHahahahahahaReally, there’s no way to choose between the trash...That’s just how normal-grade spirits areThe one who summoned the rare teddy bear dirt spirit is living the dream, bringing food twice a day for the bear and being cute, so jealousShould’ve tried harder for the rare one hahahaThe person who summoned the rare teddy bear dirt spirit must’ve saved a country in their past lifeI agree
Of course, those who summon common-grade spirits are quick to complain about how they got scammed.
Spirit summoners are struggling to survive, losing their wealth to greedy spirits, and then getting their backs broken raising spirits that won’t listen.
The few successful rare-grade spirit contracts lead some players to foolishly think, “If I’m lucky, I can do it too!” and end up losing all their wealth.
Is there even a probability?Is there such a thing as a unique grade?If it’s the best spirit, maybe it’s a Spirit King?Can we become a top-ranked player [N O V E L I G H T] if we summon a Spirit King?Looking at what these spirits do, the contractor will probably die of frustration firstHonestly, even summoning a Spirit King would be scary, so I’d recommend not doing itRecommended +1Recommended +2Recommended cheat code is lit
As the spirits’ trust plummeted, people's attention turned to elves.
"Spirits may be trash, but what about elves?"
"What happened to the slave trader party that went to catch elves?"
"I don’t know, all the members disappeared."
"???"
"Sounds like a blast, huh? Let's go check it out."
The Silent Swordsman’s player group, , who migrated en masse to the Gladiator Raising game.
They gathered poor elves scattered in the gladiator raising game, clearing out monster habitats and settling the elves there.
They even gathered seeds of fruit trees, vegetables, and herbs that were good for elves from all over the world, planting them in the forest.
"I didn't know raising elves would be this hard."
"But isn’t it rewarding?"
"How cute is it when the elves with good faces, bodies, and manners say 'Master, master' and act cute."
"Hehehe."
"Hoo hoo."
In fact, it was their own content, and they enjoyed peace among the elves.
They were happy, at least, until the spirit update began.
"Ah! Who, who’s there!"
"Ugh, I can’t see!"
As players logged in, they were ambushed, and the members of the Elven New World had bags thrown over their heads, binding them.
When the bags were removed, they found themselves in the elf village's storage.
"First, I want to thank the humans who took care of us elves when we lost our power."
"You guys... how could you do this? We worked so hard to raise you!"
"Are we being punished again?"
"Please stop!"
"We’re people too, people! Can’t we get some love from the elves we raised so carefully?"
At that, the elves cried sadly.
The Elven New World members were puzzled.
What is this? If it’s a coup or rebellion, they wouldn’t react like this?
"Poor things."
"Ah...?"
"You’ve abandoned us elves, and now you’ve been abandoned by humans too."
"Weren’t you trying to kill us?"
"Of course not. We just wanted to repay the favor."
The elves who had succeeded in spirit contracts without going through the Silent Swordsman’s random spirit contract revealed their true desires and feelings that they had long hidden.
"You guys can’t hunt, and you’re not allowed to leave the village."
"Huh??"
"You just need to eat the fruits and vegetables we give you, focus on grooming, and act cute."
"Huh??"
"Now, we’re going to raise you."
The elves, having gained power, declared a reverse-pet contract!
"Actually, this is great!!"
The leader of Elven New World, , cried as they accepted the elves' new ruling.
There were occasionally slave traders or wandering players who came in thinking they could take advantage, but when elves work with spirits, they become strong.
The elves regained their strength, tearing apart the slave traders’ accounts and capturing the lost players, turning them into new pet-humans.
"I’m so happy these days."
"I didn’t know having a master would make me this happy."
"Ugh, I’m just a baby human. I love elves!"
A world turned upside down, where elves raise humans.
Their own happy, isolated world was complete.
