Chapter 98: Birth Of A Dragon

Tyr and the others had officially began their journey to Ovalantis Province.

Not only did they want to become more powerful, but they also wanted to avoid being caught by the Rock Saelfine army.

The only way to do this was by entering the jurisdiction of another empire entirely.

As weeks passed, Tyr finally turned 16. His birthday was short and sweet, his friends wished him a happy birthday and cut a small fruit cake.

There weren't any gifts shared, as the four had been practically living together for over a month. Everything they all had was already shared anyway. Sёarᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

A couple more months passed. Darkness loomed over the forest canopy as low rustles and scarce fireflies littered the twilight.

The group were sleeping in thier tents around a small campfire. Tyr was in a deep slumber when he suddenly heard a loud and rough voice wake him up in the middle of a good dream.

'Master! Master! I require your attention immediately!'

Tyr was awoken in the middle of the night to Rudra's consistent yells.

'What happened? Why are you yelling in such a rush?' Tyr telepathically communicated, rubbing his eyes with exhaustion.

'It's Ares! He's moving like a real beast and cracking apart!'

'Huh!? Did he not need an incubator?' Tyr said this to himself rhetorically, but Rudra answered him anyway.

'I decided to create a nest for him during my free time... I guess it worked in the end.'

Tyr immediately got up and left his tent. The rustling thankfully didn't wake up anyone else around the campsite who were sleeping in their tents.

They were in the middle of the forest right now, and to avoid making noise Tyr sprinted into the forest half-naked to release Rudra and Ares.

After he was about 500 feet away, he allowed both of his beasts to come out.

Rudra stood beside his master, both of them gazing intensely at the egg before them.

It was cracking and shaking incessantly.

Tyr slowly approached it, nearing his hand toward the shell.

As soon as his hand landed on the egg, it abruptly settled down.

A warm feeling buzzed through Tyr's palm as he continued resting it there.

"It's alright, boy. You can come out now... be birthed into this world." Tyr commanded, hoping that would do something.

*Crack*

One rupture led to another...

*Crack*

*Crack*

*Crack*

And before he knew it, the eggshell shattered apart.

Tyr furrowed his eyebrows, getting a good look at what was inside of the egg.

A small head popped out. It was the size of a baseball; a pointy snout with a pair of the cutest large eyes.

The beast's entire body was covered in blue and purple scales. He was no larger than 2 feet in length.

He moved his head erratically a few times before yawning and furling the gills that were beneath his small jaw.

Finally, he raised his entire body and displayed a pair of scaly wings on its back--like a peacock bluffing its feathers.

Tyr's eyes expanded at that moment as he saw what this creature was, 'A... dragon? Did that dungeon truly have a dragon egg inside of it?' He was slightly at a loss for words.

[Congradulations! Ares has turned out to be an advanced species: Dragon!]

'So its true... then does that mean it may have not grown to be a real dragon?'

[Description: An extremely powerful beast that rules over continents. Ancient, and able to wreak havoc on planets. It holds greed and power above all else, and is the most blessed species of all the Gods.]

[Your new Soul Mend ability has been created.]

[Current viable specimens: Polaris Tiger (Immense strength, durability, and speed.) Dragon (Winged flight, flame breath, durable scales.).]

'Holy fuck... those are strong. Soul Mend; Dragon.' Tyr wasn't going to wait to try these out. No way in hell.

At once, scales grew over his arms and legs, shoulder, upper back, chest, and also a bit on his cheekbones and forehead.

*Woooosh*

In one movement, two giant dragon wings thrust out from his back and extended to the side.

Tyr smiled, unable to help but even chuckle in excitement.

"Ho-hoolly shit! Ahaha!" He exclaimed, feeling as though he had grown two extra limbs.

He attempted to flap them to fly, but instead threw himself sideways into the tree and then crashed onto the ground.

'Master!' Rudra yelled with concern, 'Are you alright!?' He sprinted over to Tyr immediately.

...

After a few seconds, Tyr decided that he was gonna wait to try out his new powers after all.

He returned to Ares, who looked up at him with innocent eyes.

Tyr pet the small creature, "I consider you nothing less than my son now, Ares." He said as the dragon continued to look at him.

"Grow big and strong... and help me take over this world."

Rudra growled loudly on hearing this, 'Hoorah! The world shall be in your palm if I have any say in it!' He roared.

'Consider...' Ares said out of nowhere before pausing.

'He can speak even though he just got born?' Tyr confusedly thought, but then realized, 'Oh right... GG will translate his thoughts without him needing to even know a language. I wonder what a newborn like him will say...'

'It... done.' Ares finished his sentence.

"What? Consider it done?" He paused for a second before breaking out into a light laugh.

"Ahaha! Good! Thats exactly what I wanted to hea--" He was suddenly cut off.

'You have the right to be my servant when I take over this world...' Ares suddenly proclaimed.

"Wait... that wasn't what I--" Tyr was again cut off.

'Silence! You are nothing more than a measly human.' His eyes darted over to Rudra: 'And you...' Ares paused as a sudden and menacing Aura exploded out from his being.

Tyr felt as though a towering dragon the size of a mountain was before him at that moment, the killing intent and primal presence of the beast causing the sheer gravity around him to feel dozens of times heavier than normal.

His eyes expanded with shock as his smile instantly disappeared: 'Strong...' He thought to himself.

'You will also be a servant... but expect no more mercy from me.'

Rudra's eyes widened... but even the king lowered his head and groaned with fear.

Tyr was completely shocked by this, 'The blood an Advanced Species of beast. So this is the presence of a true dragon. Not even that Supreme Guard seemed this horrifying...'
