My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

-----

Miriam slept peacefully the night before the tournament in Riverside City, she had been waiting for this day almost her entire life, a day where she could finally show that she was an amazing monster pet trainer, like she had always wanted to be. Until a few months ago, she didn't really had anything much, but now she had a family, they adopted her and her siblings, and even a monster pet in the form of Ryujin, the adorable Water Dragon from Earth, which of course she didn't knew the origin of yet. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

She's such a young girl and she's already filled with so much happiness and comfort, she couldn't ask for anything else in life, and she had worked very hard to get Ryujin to grow stronger, despite being a little dragon, he was indeed quite mighty on his own, to an extent, at least. Her latent powers had begun to awaken some more to the point she also realized it. Golden light would sometimes come out of her hands, connecting itself into Ryujin and giving him a great boost to his strength, agility, resistance, defense, mana, and vitality, something that was incredible.

She had heard about monster pet trainers capable of using special abilities to enhance monster pets, these abilities were called Battle Bond Arts, and were used by powerful trainers who have forged very strong bonds with their monster pets and had also trained their own energies and mana. In the world of Gaia the concept of humans using magic didn't exist, although it was said that in the past, humans had the power of using strange supernatural powers, but they were lost as they tamed and adapted themselves to live with monster pets.

However, as humans develop and grow stronger through exercising, battling, and experiencing things with their monster pets, this bond is forged and it becomes something similar to magic contract, it grows stronger the more the trainer and the monster experience together. Of course, there are other ways to enhance it, such as using magical artifacts crafted by Crafters or Alchemists, using the help of certain monster pets, even magical items of various types and alchemy is possible, bringing forth a new era of monster taming.

The powers Miriam developed, however, were beyond just that, they were innate of her, and she had not even developed that much with Ryujin yet their bond was strengthening incredibly fast… According to what Frank had investigated, this was due to Miriam's amazing innate talent, she was someone with an "Innate Battle Bond Art" one in a million person with amazing talent over taming and controlling monster pets, and even charming them. With such great and noticeably amazing talent over monster pets, Miriam was set to be a talented girl with an incredible talent like nobody else out there, she simply had to train harder… ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

She had developed such powers over the time with her new borrowed monster pet, Ryujin, and Frank began to worry a bit as well. He knew that Miriam was good for Ryujin's growth, but he also knew that the girl might end up making Ryujin too attached to her, which would make it harder for him to one day go back to Earth and become the guardian of Japan's seas…

<br/>However, he couldn't separate him now that he was growing so strong and was so happy, the two were happy together, and Frank had a weak side for children, so he let the two be together for now, at the end the dragon still received the help of Miriam, and it wasn't as if he wouldn't be able to bring Miriam to Earth or something either, as he had adopted her and she was now part of his family and everything…

She had been certainly surprised each time Frank brought a new wife though, they felt as if they were brought out of nowhere, and she was surprised by the ridiculous amount of wives he ended bringing, each one had amazing talent over monster taming, and even had strange, innate powers of their own… Which Miriam didn't spoke about in the outside world, as she saw them all as her aunties. She also saw even more siblings that Frank brought, and the new Styx was a very cute girl that had horns, something she had never seen before, surprising her a lot.

She was growing stronger, making new friends, and now had a loving family… She slept well, with her belly filled, without realizing it too much, Frank had made the life of a once quite miserable girl into one filled with happiness.

As she closed her eyes and dozed off, she began to dream. And once more, these dreams were… things that she somehow felt very close to her, but that she couldn't remember what they were for. As if she remembered them, yet she couldn't remember the context, or why she was having them, it was a weird set of fantastical dreams that always assaulted her sleep sometimes. Although it recently became very rare, just this night, she dreamed about something like this.

Frightening monsters surrounded a woman, a beautiful woman with long dark brown hair and shiny yellow-gold eyes, wearing saint-like robes of white, gold, and pink color. She looked majestic, and so far from how Miriam even looked, yet… she had some sort of air similar to her, a golden glow coming from within her body which generated an aura of charisma and… divinity.

She was sitting in a throne, while many frightening beasts of gigantic sizes looked down at her, some were calm, others were wrathful, some were frustrated, and others were sorrowful, and a few, very few of them seemed happy, and hopeful.

This was a strange dream, she never dreamed something so gloomy before, the entire atmosphere of this divine hall where legendary monsters assembled was dark, as if something very bad was happening… the multi-headed wolves, the enormous black snakes, the gigantic dragons of various colors, shapes, and sizes, all spoke, voicing their opinions…
