&8211; New Ability Gained &8211;
Dorian’s body elongated, his wings stretching and pulling out, his snout becoer, and even more draconic His body ht, his body elongating to between five and six reen scales see even in the diht of the cave
His senses seerowingsounds of a lea around him came more into focus
He also felt that it was now incredibly cra
‘Ow! Ausra can I go back to being s the other es that appeared in his mind
‘Yes, now that your Soul has fully adapted to this new forrown Reverting to a lower Growth Stage is also possible, but will require a constant suppression of your growth, and therefore will slowly drain you of energy’ Ausra’s cool response echoed
‘How do I revert to a lower Growth Stage?’ He asked quickly, feeling the rocky cave ceiling shift slightly He was exuding a huge amount of pressure on it If it collapsed…
‘Sie, and will yourself to revert Your Soul Spell Matrix will follow your co his body se of his current forht in his eyes flashed, and Dorian felt his body shrink in on itself It took only an instant, and he soon had the appearance of his previous for
"Whew&8221; He said aloud, stretching his back He looked up at the ceiling, seeing a sood sign&8221; He shrugged, and then quickly scaround cave, just to be safe
As he exited, he pulled up his Soul Status, checking on his condition
Dorian &8211; Soul Status
Soul Stage: Master Class (Early)
Health: Perfect
Energy: 94 (Draining at 1 per 47 seconds)
‘H this for hie, and felt his body automatically resuon
‘Hey! I reached the Master Class! Awesoons are the best!’ He noticed after a
The difference between Classes were extremely important in the 30,000 Worlds For beasts that relied on their bloodlines to grow strong, this difference was a life-or-death statistic
The Master Class was a dividing line between beasts A single Master Class beast could easily crush several Sky Class beasts
A of Magic, and ability to use it, reached the Master Class, your Soul would evolve an innate barrier to protect your body
For beasts with powerful bloodlines that naturally reached the Master Class, it was a bit different
Master Class beasts evolved a certain level of intelligence, beyond that of regular beasts Not enough to be fully aware in h to be able to sense and detect the Aura of other beasts, and form coherent responses to theer than that of a Sky Class beast
The reason all the Master and Grand the Aura Dorian released was due to that
But the biggest difference between a Master Class and a Sky Class beast was a more subtle point
Muscle and bone density
In the 30,000 worlds, the stronger a being’s soul, thecould contain or handle For Wizards, this was apparent in the awe inspiring spells they could unleash
For beasts that grew via their bloodline, this began to show itself as their physical body becaan to condense, growing tougher and her the Class, the more and th and power could be concentrated in a single physical form, supported by a powerful Soul Spell Matrix That was how the laws of this very different universe functioned
Warriors that weren’t able to practicetheir body forcibly through constant training and stimulation While they wouldn’t be able to reach the peaks that certain powerful bloodlines could, they could still reach extraordinary levels
Dorian felt at his body, feeling a strength in him that he hadn’t felt before He looked down at his now several inch long claws, tapping the echo was powerful, and felt threatening He felt a strength in his body he hadn’t felt before, as if he could casually smash an entire tree into wooden shrapnel with a casual blow He had becos on his back, his eyes lightning up
Naturally, as if by instinct, Dorian stretched the as if he had an extra pair of ars as they expanded, growing out several er than his body
He frowned as he looked at this As a student who studied aerospace engineering, he knew very well that a wingspan of this size could never support his 3 ons fly?’ He queried
‘A Myyr Dragon is one of the weaker Draconic bloodlines, and is incapable of extended flight Gliding and other forht are possible’ Ausra responded cooly
Dorian shrugged, accepting it as it was His eyes glea a forh the skies What hu?
As he came to terms with his body, he focused on the last mental notification his Soul Spell Matrix had sent him
&8211; New Ability Gained &8211;
Ability: Lesser Emerald Flames (1/3)
Description: An Ability unique to several draconic breeds, the ability to unleash powerful green flathat released therows into Ausra, Abilities were a power unique to beasts with unique or powerful bloodlines
The bloodline of a beast, and their respective Soul Spell Matrix, were inherently tied together for alained due to the makeup of their blood and Soul Spell Matrix
These abilities were very siic Spells The source of each was identical, from one’s Soul Spell Matrix Wizards, however, had to practice very hard toand understanding ic worked
An Ability, on the other hand, was co that held it The coy used functioned autoent beast could operate it
Some Wizards had made it their life’s work to uncover s that held them, to uncover the secrets of the universe Ausra didn’t have any specific inforressed, but said that it was entirely possible for a Wizard toenough
‘Ausra, it says this Ability grows in mastery? What specifically does that uess, but wanted to be certain
‘Sorowth of your physical forside you as your body and soul becoenie replied
He nodded That hat he figured The stronger his body, the more powerful Abilities he’d be able to handle
As he took in his recent growth, Doriana careful watch on the surrounding valley He saw at least a hundred of the once tall trees were bent or folded, the shockwave fro them
He decided to take a fewthe past few minutes
He felt like an idiot
He’d been so excited upon obtaining that powerful Aura, he’d thought he was invincible After all, such a powerful Aura should ht?
The answer to that see no Just because he had a tru upon that to save hiuard in a valley he kneas dangerous Sure, it had seele encounter with intelligent humans before, but that was no reason to leave hi a fire in the wilderness created an obvious s as if he was truly safe
He needed to remind himself that this was not earth He could not act like he was just a regular hu trip
Powerful creatures existed here, beings that could crush hi
His eyes hardened as he nodded his head sharply He was extremely lucky to have survived this ti a second tiain
Dorian sighed, rubbing his head Or, well, atte to His claws appeared to be much sharper than his scales, and he accidentally stabbed hihtly thanks to his upgrade, the wound closing up and starting to slowly heal
Why did all those humans and Vampires try to attack hiht unfolded, none of them seemed to want to actually kill him
How did they even find him?
His eyes flashed as he remembered that Wizard that had seen his Red Salamander form Perhaps he led them here?
But what about the Va to decide where to go froht his eyes
He spun around, a snarl on his face as he readied hi in the air before hi, white beard
"Excuse on Could I have a moment of your ti as he held his hands out, standing still and not
Hundreds ofDepart in Dorian’s direction, a small frown on his face He stood upon the southern wall of the great capital city Obsidia, looking out at the world around him The enore, relaxing grass plain flowed in other directions
"What do you reckon that was, Larah?&8221; He said, htning had shot into the sky, attracting his attention just e ah for him to notice it, even at such a distance
Larah Consta, his Granded, her plain face devoid of emotion as she responded,
"I am not certain, but it almost certainly has to do with one of our own I’ll look into it We should have a few of my Wizards in the area &8221; The woman sat down, directly on the outer stone wall of the city, her hands waving out in front of her Light see
As the leadingall the Fate Wizards that had co theic that was at the peak of the Grandic was an incredibly obscure type of Magic, but also one of the roup or teaic, without fail It was part of why the Fate Departest andle other Depart as it fizzled out, his eyes calm That was definitely a spell of sohtning Magic: Requie out, unfortunately They probably didn’t even have a full day beforeDepart Department was on a planet close to this outer world, but so too were the headquarters for the Darkness Depart Department
If he could successfully capture whatever caused the disturbance in Fate here on his own, he’d gain a very large amount of merit within his Department, and subsequently be heavily rewarded
Unfortunately, Fate Magic, even for the best Fate Wizards, could be a dae to pinpoint the disturbance in Fate to somewhere within a thousand miles of here, but the exact location was elusive He’d already spread his o, but had yet to find anything
The bright beaic to the west, however, was incredibly intriguing
"I’ve established a connection through Fate with one of our own in the area… They’ve found the location of the disturbance in Fate!&8221; Larah’s voice contained, for once, a hint of excite his fists It seemed they wouldn’t be too late after all Larah’s next words, however, cooled his enthusiasm
"It’s apparently at least a Lord Class Beast, and a very powerful one&8221; She continued, and then stopped, stuttering
Hadrion turned his head, waving for her to continue
"What ruffly A powerful Lord Class Beast That could prove troublesoth His last battle with a Lord Class beast had been an extree, and that beast hadn’t been one at the peak of Lord Class
