Chapter 40: Arrival of Pooh Bear (Reader OC)

In another part of the world, on a much smaller land mass that bore only 1 volcano, a tribe of lycanthrope of the bear species huddled around a mother and her new child that she cradled carefully in her arms.

An older looking female bear came forwards and checked the health of the child. Then after some tense scanning of the mother as well, she said,"Congratulations Miss Pris Bear, the birth of your child was a success, and other than the usual pains of motherhood, you are henceforth cleared!"

Pris sighed a deep breath of relief and finally looked up at her partner, her mate, who had been by her side the entire time. He had refused to follow tradition and had instead stood next to her and comforted her the entire birth. It meant a great deal to her as the birth was very traumatic, but having her mate's hand always holding hers throughout made the pain bearable.

She said in an exhausted voice,"Pat, what should we name the child?"

Pat looked at his son with absolute care and love and said,"Let us name him Pooh. Like his grandfather Po, he will achieve great things in his life."

Pris smiled and said,"Pooh.. Ah, such a perfect name for him. Then it's settled! Welcome to the world Pooh Bear!" She poked the baby's hairy belly and it woke up and started to cry.

The two mates just laughed.

"Attack! For your child and honor you must attack with all your might!" Said a centaur holding a wooden stick. Opposite him was another Centaur, just younger and more capable-looking. His body gave off the feeling of great potential.

The centaur then rushed forwards, not thinking about the consequences. He swung his own pointy stick at the older centaur, who managed to nimbly dodge out of the way. He swung his stick in a surprise upwards slash, which caught the older centaur off guard.

The older centaur was hit with a "SMACK!" on his rear end, which made him jump in astonishment. When his body was launched into the air from the force of his own legs, the younger didn't waste the chance.

The younger centaur got low to the ground and raised his back hooves in the air. He waited half a second for the older centaur to finish falling after jumping so high. Then he gave a hard strike with his hind legs to the older centaurs stomach and rib area on his lower half.

The older centaur was immediately caught with instant damage and he quickly fell to ground, all 4 knees touching the ground as well as his arm supporting him from completely face-planting.

The older centaur then said,"I yield.."

The younger centaur screamed,"YEEAHHH!!! BABBYY!! WOOOHH!! That's what I've been waiting for!"

The older centaur picked himself off the ground and dusted himself off. He thought to himself,"Damn the kid really got me.. If his son is anything like him, the chief will have a worthy contender someday!"

The older centaur, now composed, commanded,"Attention!"

The younger centaur immediately stopped celebrating and stood completely still, with his hand by his side and with his body perfectly facing the older centaur.

The older centaur then smirked and said,"Kid, you did good. It is my honor to present your reward for your fruitful and tireless efforts! I, Titanus, hereby declare and officiate that you, Perillees, are suitable as a knight and hereby give you the rank of Journeyman Knight! You now have the privilege of a Journeyman and some privileges will be extended to your family and future children. Please take this token and move to the Journeyman hunting Reserve for better accommodation, if you desire that.."

Titanus said this part like a rehearsed speech, but this time, he actually meant it. He had done this speech many times with parents who bribed him or gave him favorable deals and whatnot, but this boy was the first to actually gain his respect, and so he decided to add on a reward.

Tetanus continued stoically,"Additionally, I have a personal reward that I wish to give you, if you wish to have it?"

Perilees nodded his head in confirmation, still in his attention mode, which had been drilled into his very soul. He shuddered internally at the thought.

Titatinus nodded in satisfaction and then pulled out a sack. He reached in and pulled out a gem that was glowing with a tangible white light.

Perilees couldn't help himself as he knew what this was, as it made massive waves after its discovery. This was a new and still relatively rare ore, that when used on someone could help them advance some part of themselves. Many in the clan saw this as an opportunity and all 5 of the available ores were taken by them. They had experimented a bit and now knew that the crystal worked on intent. If you absorbed some of the energy hoping to improve your skills, you would. It was all about your mindset, and when one of the experimenters tried to "improve the talent" of his nearly born child, it actually worked! Well at least they think it did, as the child seemed to have expanded his energy by a couple magnitude while still incubating, which was instantly noticed by the still pregnant mother.

Perilous dropped to his knees and said,"Sir! Please be sure! This is a grand treasure, I do not believe I am worthy of such an offering!"

Titanus then laughed and said,"Ok then, name me the Godfather of your child." n./o..V-/e-/l-/B(-I.-n

Perilees laughed and said,"Teacher! Of course! I was already going to ask you!"

Titanus smiled evilly and then said,"Good! Good! Hey, guess what, I never got you a baby celebration gift, and I won't have enough money for the celebratory party. Here, as repayment, take this crystal and improve the baby's talent to the max!"

Titanus shoved the crystal in the sack into his hands. Perilees smirked and said,"You evil man.."
