Chapter 1291 Side Story: Fairy Dragon I

Before the guild war, Peridot has been meaning to find a way to evolve as she managed to read something about a special ancestor of the Ryujin. It was an existence that is said to be a Ryujin that came from the moon as they have the power of the moon.

The power of the moon does not necessarily mean that they are drawing power from the moon but have powers that constitute to the natural abilities of the moon. It is also known that the moon is connected to the Faekin as they are said to be descendants of the very first being that was created by the moon itself.

Since the Faekin and the moon are synonymous to one another in ancient times, the dragons that have the same power as the moon are called Fairy Dragons. Dragons that have the ability to alter nature itself with their own will just like how the moon influences the waves or the light during the night.

Peridot knew that stories like these are not untrue as some are based on what really happened. Adrian told her that the folktales that she hears often have some truth to them which is why he likes to learn of the lore of Pandemonium. Also, Peridot saw the words Fairy Dragon and she immediately thought that she would become cute.

"Master Nu Wa, can you tell me about the Fairy Dragons?" Peridot asked as she was incredibly interested in them.

Nu Wa did not expect that her child will be interested in such an old legend. In her long life in the mortal realm, she has only encountered one Fairy Dragon in her life. She might have been a goddess in her past life, but she knew that the Fairy Dragon is a special existence on par with the Genesis Dragon.

"Why do you wish to know about them? Even in my long life, I have only encountered one and have talked to them." Nu Wa stated as she looked at Peridot.

"I am interested in them because I want to evolve into one." Peridot stated as she knows that all other beings could increase their Persona and some beings need to evolve in order to do that.

"You are already a Ryujin that is about to become an elder. You just need to diligently practice, and you will be able to evolve just fine. Why are chasing something that is very difficult to attain?" Nu Wa asked Peridot.

"I want to become stronger for my friends as I feel that I barely help them when it comes to combat." Peridot stated.

"You are still a young Ryujin which is why you cannot deal powerful attacks. Once you become an Elder Ryujin, you will be able to make the elements bow down to you. You are very rare as you have the talents to control the four natural elements just like me. Ryujin like us two are very rare and are the symbol of race's pride." Nu Wa stated.

"I know that but in the book that I have read, it is said that the one of the ancestors of the Ryujins was a Fairy Dragon. I want to become one if that is a possibility." Peridot stated.

Nu Wa knows why her child wants to become a more powerful Ryujin because she is getting overshadowed by her fellow friends. She wanted to tell Peridot to not compare herself to her monstrous Asmodian demon friend but did not. She is glad that her daughter wants to become someone stronger and wants to catch up to her peers.

"This is why I do not want her to hang out with that Asmodian demon that has the blessing of the Twin Gods. If only I was back in the divine realm, then I would definitely give my blessing to my favorite child. If only the Peach of Immortality was still available in the mortal realm, then I would get enough energy to repair my divinity." Nu Wa thought to herself.

Nu Wa is the creator of the Ryujin but it is widely spread that it was the Goddess Tiamat was the one that birthed all dragons but that is not entirely true. The Goddess Tiamat and the Goddess Nuwa were the ones that birthed the dragons.

The Goddess Tiamat was responsible to what people call the western dragons as they were born in her image. The western dragons as they call it have more powerful and large bodies with wings on their backs. They also have powerful arms and legs that could be used for catastrophic damage. The Goddess Tiamat created two of what was called the Progenitor of Dragons.

These western dragons were typically more ruthless and greedier as they boasted power rivaling the Goddess Tiamat. The Goddess Tiamat might be a goddess of life, but she is also a very boastful goddess which might have been passed down to her creations as the western dragons tend to act as overlords. They act like overlords because they like to wave their strength to others.

The Goddess Nuwa was responsible for the creation of what people call the eastern dragons as they were also born in her image. The eastern dragons are serpentine in appearance as they are described being more elegant and graceful. The Goddess Nuwa created two of what was called the Progenitor of Dragons.

The eastern dragons tend to be more elusive and calmer unlike their western counterpart which is taken from the Goddess Nuwa's composed personality. They also tend to be treated as guardians as they revered their mother goddess as a creator of life thus hold life as precious. Although, they also have a fearsome and ruthless personality when slighted which is why one should never offend an eastern dragon.

The people of olden times learned to never take advantage of the kindness of the eastern dragons because they will become demons that spread flood and calamity if angered. There is a reason why the Ryujin are called the tranquil because they stay that way unless angered. Should they lose their tranquil state then they become bringers of calamity. It is also the reason why Peridot immediately got the Bringer of Calamity title when she became a Ryujin.

"I should tell you truth about the dragons which will tell you why it might be impossible for you to become a Fairy Dragon that you want to be." Nu Wa stated as she relayed the information to Peridot.

Nu Wa told Peridot that the Ryujin are basically dragons that were the weakest of what the people call as eastern dragons. The more powerful ones were killed in the war between the dark gods as they valued the life on this earth and sacrificed themselves when their mother goddess died fighting the dark gods. Nu Wa also told her that the Fairy Dragon is like the Genesis Dragon which is a Progenitor of the Dragon Species.

Becoming a Fairy Dragon is almost impossible because it was an existence that she personally crafted when she was the Goddess Nuwa. She made the Fairy Dragon with her own blood and a few special things in the mix. Water that was blessed by the Elemental Kings of Nature and a stone made of pure Moon Rock bathe with the light of the sun for more than a thousand years. She also added a few things but these two were the most important.

"It would not be easy for you to get these two items as the path to the world of the Elemental Kings are already cut off. They are also very antagonistic of each other which is why you will have a difficult time getting at least one to bless pure water that has already been blessed by one. For the Pure Moon Rock, you will have to get one through pure chance which is also close to impossible as even going to the moon is not enough." Nu Wa stated.

"Should I tell her that the Elemental Kings are in another world called Alfheim where the Faekin are also located? Nope. I just need to keep it to myself as I already know the two things needed." Peridot thought.

"I hear your sound reasoning my beloved master, but I shall at least try because I will regret if I do not. Should I get those two items like you said, what should I do with them?" Peridot asked her master.

"If you get those items then all you need is to bring them to me as I will create a pill that might induce this evolution." Nu Wa replied as she could just whup up that pill since she has enough powers to do so.

She also now has a base compared to before where she created everything from scratch. She would just need to create a catalyst to trigger the evolution since the blood of the Fairy Dragon runs deep in the Ryujins. She has this odd feeling that her daughter might do so which is why she is not actively stopping her.
