The horned deer, also known as Small titan, carried teen on its back towards the altar of affinities at tremendous speed. The wind rustled around it by the force exerted by it's speed but as it carried it's master towards the altar, it felt that even if it died while carrying it's master, it wouldn't had any regrets and he would be happy to die while serving its master.
The deer was running Pritty fast, so it didn't took him much to reach the alter but when the deer finally reached it, two arrows flew towards it from his back, piercing it's backside and blood started to gush out like rivers. The common ranked horned-deer, was in pain because of just being at F-grade. If it would have been at E-grade, it's natural body defense would have blocked the arrow and it would have fallen on the ground without making a sound at all and it would have been able to stay with its mistress longer.
It did not wished to die yet… it wished to live on and become a proud deer who could shake the whole world by just tapping it's hoofs on the ground. If, just if it had that strength, no one would be able to touch teen, his mistress.
But alas, it was just thinking. Because it was just at F-grade, and was still weak and now, he only had some seconds to liv and after that, nothing will remain of him except for its corpse and; also, the corpse of it's mistress if she didn't managed to survive.
The deer wanted to look at it's mistress for a laste time so it raised it's gaze upwards and looked at teen who was in a kneeling position at the alter and seemed to be praying to the God she believed in.
The rays of moonlight fell on her, beautifying her charm even more. In this moment, the deer felt that it should kneel before her and die piece fully beside it's mistress and in the next life, gain the same mistress again. The deer didn't know when his bond grew so much with teen, but it didn't knew that it was how the system worked. The thoughts it was feeling at the moment were because of the master and beast contract bond which linked them together in some strange way.
The loyalty feature mattered as well. If your beast is not loyal enough, it won't even think before abandoning you to die off somewhere but if the loyalty is below fifty-points, the beast will start to hate you and when the loyalty reaches the 0% mark, the beast will become uncontracted and the contract bounding it would be broken and then, the first person it will kill would be, of course, it's former master.
Now, Coming back to the deer, when it looked at teen, it didn't believe it's own eyes for the first time! The seen in front of it was, totally, absurd!
It saw, with its own eyes, two arrows were penetrated deep through teen's body, but somehow she was still alive and was covered in a cocoon of black-ice which covered the place where the wound of the arrows were supposed to be. The two arrows were frozen in their place inside her body, as if her bodies internal temperature was much colder than outside. The deer didn't knew the reason of this strange thing, but it was happy to see it's mistress survive and alive.
But at this point, the deer also noticed something else as well. Something strange was happening with the alter of affinities and talents. It seemed to be glowing in white radiance and slowly, thin ice-strips were Coming out of it.
