Chapter 28 - Borrowed Power

"System: Special Mission; Defeat Asher Timberlake in a Duel!"

Sai reads the content of the quest. "This is impossible… How do you expect me to defeat my master…"

"System: Do you want some advice?"

"What kind of advice are you even going to give me?" Sai was already losing hope for this quest.

"System: You have a magical beast, remember?"

Sai was confused. "So? What about it?"

"System: Use it as your power. Borrow some power to your magical beast."

"Is that even allowed? That's kinda cheating, you know." Sai was against using other powers since he thinks it would be unfair.

"System: Asher has powers too and he is stronger than you. It is not unfair, you know. So ask your beast to help you. He has been wanting to see you." 

Sai sighs and lays down on his bed. "Fine… I will… Tomorrow… I need some rest first…"

"System: If you say so."

Next Morning…

Sai has been woken up by the sunlight going through his window. He slowly sat up and stretched his body. As he opened his eyes he was greeted by Seth. Sai got scared because he was standing right in front of him. Sai screamed and fell from his bed.

Seth was stunned but he immediately helped Sai and seated him on his bed. "Are you okay, your highness?" 

"Ugh… I'm fine… Why are you even here… It's early in the morning… You scared me…" Sai said as he rubs his head.

Seth suddenly kneels in front of Sai and lowered his head. "My apologies, your highness… I thought that you might need me by now."

Sai looks at him. "How did you know that? I haven't been talking to you for about three days now."

Seth continued to lower his head as he spoke. "There's this thing that runs in kind of a magical beast. They could feel if their master needs them or not." Seth explained to him.

"Alright… I guess I do need you… Stand." Sai commanded him.

Seth immediately obeyed him and stood up. "Whatever it is, I must obey."

"I need your power." Sai looks at him with a serious face.
