Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Kreeee!!!!

The moment those words left Corey's mouth, a shrill sound escaped the beaks of the bird and intense killing intent spread out from it causing cold sweat to appear on Corey and Mrs. Ashley's forehead.

Mrs. Ashley was about to instinctively infuse mana into the object in her palm but just as she was about to do infuse mana into the object, Corey spoke:

"What do you think you're doing?"

Corey's voice and expression was extremely cold after he calmed himself down from the scare and shock he had when the bird of oblivion abruptly released it's killing intent.

"Kreeee!!"

The bird of oblivion consumed by rage after hearing that a puny ant, a puny mortal human wanted it's queen, it's master to be his pet, momentarily forgot about it's situation.

Does he know who it's queen was?

Does he know the power and authority she possessed?

Does he know of her origins?

Even immortals had to be wary of her and would not dare make her their pet.

Just because she was weakened and decided to come to this low level planet, this mortal thought making it's master his pet was alright?

Insolence!!!

"Kreeeee!!!!"

The thought of it increased the rage it felt and just as the bird was about to attack Corey in rage, it shrieked in pain and an indifferent voice could be heard.

"I said, what do you think you're doing?"

Corey with an indifferent expression spoke.

The tip of his fingers which were at first incorporeal were now corporeal and with an indifferent expression, he squeezed the brains of the two heads causing it to scream in pain once more.

"It seems you don't understand."

With his fingers still squeezing the brains, he spoke indifferently.

"I can kill two of your heads anytime I want which would weaken you immensely and there's no way I won't be able to kill the last head.

Once I kill you for real, you won't be able to stop me from making that egg my pet or even killing it.

So if you know what's good for you, you better keep quiet and don't try anything stupid."

The bird shivered hearing and seeing Corey's tone and expression.

As it looked into Corey's indifferent eyes, it shivered the more and wisely kept quiet but sadness could be seen in it's eyes.

"Wise choice."

Not caring about it's sad expression, Corey spoke indifferently then he looked at Mrs. Ashley.

She shivered slightly seeing his indifferent eyes which lacked emotions and Corey seeing that blinked repeatedly before his indifferent eyes disappeared.

He exhaled then shook his head softly before he looked at Mrs. Ashley with an apologetic expression.

"Sorry for scaring you. I was getting annoyed by this three-headed chicken since I've been repeating the same thing to it ever since I got here.

But I guess that's why it's a chicken, it can't understand things properly until you threaten it and beat it several times."

Hearing the words of Corey, Mrs. Ashley had a strange expression before she just decided not to say anything for the sake of her mental health.

"You asked if the thing inside the egg can be your pet right?"

She asked and Corey nodded.

"Well, I don't know much but from what I know, making baby monsters or beasts your pets is much easier than matured ones, so making the being inside that egg should be simple I believe.

You just need to touch it and a system notification will pop up in front of you."

Disdain appeared in the eyes of the bird of oblivion when it heard the puny mortal human saying that it would be easy for the scary human to make it's master into his pet.

The more it thought about the consequences of what would happen when the scary human tried to form a soul link with it's Queen, the more anticipation it had and the more obedient it became.

Neither Corey nor Mrs. Ashley noticed any of the expressions the bird of oblivion had since both of their eyes were on the egg in the distance.

A calculating light appeared in Corey's eyes for a few seconds before it disappeared.

Without looking at Mrs. Ashley, he spoke:

"Mrs. Ashley, would you like to make this bird of oblivion your pet?"

"What?"

A baffled expression could be seen on her face and she was extremely stunned hearing Corey's question.

A few seconds later she woke up from her stunned state and looked at Corey with a suspicious expression.

"Are you joking?"

She asked and Corey shook his head.

"I'm not."

He replied but his words caused the confusion on Mrs. Ashley's face to increase.

"You know this is a tier 2 creature and it's extremely powerful. If it's nurtured properly it could help somebody in the long run.

It can be somebody's invaluable helper and you're giving it to me?

Shouldn't you give it to somebody you trust?"

She questioned and Corey had a wry smile on his lips.

"If not because of what happened between Becca and me, I would have given it to her.

Also, the reason I'm giving you is because without you and your group, there's no way I'd have been able to defeat this three-headed chicken, so just take this chicken and make it your pet.

The mana I'm using for this skill isn't negligible by the way, so please make this chicken your pet."

Corey urged and a small smile appeared on Mrs. Ashley's lips.

"You know, if you're doing this so that you can get in my pants, you've earned yourself some points."

Hearing Mrs. Ashley's words, Corey was at first stunned before he just shrugged.

"That was not my main intention but I won't deny that it wasn't one of my reasons for giving you the bird."

Mrs. Ashley had a smile hearing Corey's words.

She was satisfied that Corey did not deny the fact that one of the reasons he gave her the bird of oblivion was too impress her.

She was not a young girl or a maiden whose heart would flutter just because the opposite sex did something nice or gave her a gift.

She preferred guys who knew what they wanted and did not deny it.

"I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to repay this gift you've given me so we'll be friends from now on and you can call me Ashley instead of Mrs. Ashley, my friends call me Ashley."

She said then walked to the right head of the bird of oblivion.

Corey seeing her walk towards the right head had a confused expression after he realized something.

"When did I become so confident in speaking with women?"

He muttered but a second later, he shrugged and dismissed the thought since it was not a bad thing for him and he guessed it was probably because of all the experiences he had ever since the apocalypse started.

Half a minute later, Ashley walked back with a smile on her lips.

"You can remove your hands now, I was able to convince it to be my pet."

She said and Corey raised both eyebrows.

"So fast? How come I didn't notice anything?"

The suspicion and confusion in his tone could clearly be heard and Ashley had a confused expression perceiving the suspicion in his words.

"What did you expect to happen?

Fireworks? An announcement? Lightning to strike? Or the whole planet to tremble?"

The sarcasm in her voice was clear causing Corey to have an embarrassed expression.

"Alright, alright, I've heard you.

Sheesh. Did you have to take my words that way?"

He said while removing his hands from the heads of the bird of oblivion, though he had a cautious and wary expression.

Kreeee!!

A cry of freedom and happiness rang out from the bird of oblivion the moment Corey removed his hands.

Ashley chuckled feeling the happiness that was radiating from her pet.

"We need to get down."

She spoke and without waiting for Corey to say anything, she jumped off the bird of oblivion.

Corey raised an eyebrow seeing Ashley jump down and after thinking about for a second, he also jumped down.

As soon as he landed, he looked at Ashley and Ashley feeling his stare spoke:

"I want to keep it. It needs to recuperate."

She said and Corey had a confused expression but he didn't ask any questions and waited for her to do her thing which was not much at all actually.

She just snapped her fingers and much to Corey's shock, the three-headed chicken turned into black lights and disappeared.

"What?"

He spoke out loud subconsciously and Ashley explained with a smile.

"You can decide to keep your pet in a different space when you don't want to use it. When it is in that separate space, a tattoo of the pet would form on a certain part of your body."

She showed Corey her left shoulder which had a black tattoo of the bird of oblivion.

"By the way, you should check out the egg now."

Ashley said and Corey nodded.

He walked to the statue and after using Super Jump, he stood in front of the extremely black egg which was twice the size of an ostrich's egg.

After making sure there was no danger, he placed his right hand on the egg and a translucent screen appeared in front of him.
