Beast Taming Begins with a Desperate Escape

Huang Ying is a genius spirit tamer who awakens an S-rank mental talent, only to become the laughingstock of her school after contracting a puppet doll everyone mocks as a “good-for-nothing rag doll.”

“Look, Nightingale brought her rag doll to class!”

“An S-rank talent wasted on a pet for show!”

In the face of their mockery, Huang Ying simply strokes Qian Yu’s dull button eyes. “Don’t be afraid. I know you’re different.”

While others pursue mighty divine beasts, she searches ancient books in the library for the secrets of evolving “non-living things.”

While others sweat it out on the training grounds, she uses her mental energy late into the night to nurture Qian Yu’s battered body.

Then, at the academy league, the “rag doll” everyone had jeered at opens its ruby-red eyes before a spellbound crowd. Invisible threads control the entire arena, and it takes an elegant bow.

“A doll? No, a king!”

From a mocked “doll tamer” to the “Nightingale” who astonishes the world, Huang Ying sets out on an extraordinary beast-taming adventure with her one-of-a-kind companions: a proud shadow marten, a healing jellyfish, a fierce but adorable turtle, and an elegant pegasus.

Contract with a good-for-nothing? No, I contracted a forgotten legend!
