Chapter 7: Exploration

Something else caught my attention which was that there was no source of light in the domain. Before I was born I was the only source of light but after I was born. The light went away.

I didn't notice this before because my physique made it look like everything was as bright as day, but my connection to the domain made me feel the plant's desperate need for light, they were getting enough nutrients from the soil and water near them but sunlight has always been needed for a plant.

I also sensed the other creatures' requests for light, even though not as much as the plants. Their evolved nature made it possible for them to thread the domain without any problem.

" Wow, it's just one thing after another" I caressed my horn which I have taken a liking to. Since I have been reborn, there has been no moment of rest. There is always this and that. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

With my authority over the domain, solving the problem of light will be easy but that will create a gap in my realm. My domain isn't like the one in the stories where you play God like " Let there be light"

Wish it was like that but this domain has its own properties which is Nature and cursed energy. It has nothing to do with light and every other element, other elements can be introduced into the domain under the right condition but the realm can create the element out of thin air.

My first thought was to control the domain to open up a gap in the sky for the sun to shine into the domain, but like i said it leaves it open for anyone who wants to get into my domain which is not smart.

My second choice will depend on my divinity for nature which grants me a wood manipulation ability. When I was playing with my abilities on the moon at Mahu place, I thought about how I can create plants with special attributes to them.

My experimentation showed that I was capable of it but it will take a mastered control over the nature of plants to be able to do that. I am able to create wood out of thin air but the wood created is nothing special, maybe a bit stronger than normal plants but that's it.

I wanted more which led to the thought of plants with attributes, for example; a plant infused with the element of metal in it, making it as though as steel but at the same time its essence is just a wood but mutated.

It will take a lot of training to get there but if I am able to manipulate mutations caused in plants then my problem for the light source in my domain will be solved and a quality change will be made in my combat power.

The mana doesn't strengthen a shaman body like it does the other humans, instead if flows into their brain make them look a bit weak compared to the others.

I say weak but i know they can beat down any human from my past world, the mana flow to their brain lead them to be sub leaders in their tribe. They are the ones that start fires when the sun comes down, and occasionally points things out to others.

Too bad I can't interfere or communicate with them until Nana says so. Having done observing the humans, I proceeded to tour the eastern area I was assigned to see what magical things it has in it.

Flying around the eastern part, it came to my notice that were also plants and flowers that mutated from the exposure of mana. Some looked like they will be helpful but the others developed a more predatory nature, also even though the animals have it easy to develop abilities with the mana around them, Not every animal is capable of that.

The dinosaurs I have seen for example don't have a lot of them who have mutated and shown their abilities, instead they all just seem stronger than other creatures but with each observation.

I found that the weaker animals are slowly fighting back the dinosaurs that prey on them with their abilities, the hunter is slowly becoming the hunted. Now among the dinosaurs that have mutated, they all seem abnormally stronger and change the ecological environment around them because they have no predator and nothing to stop them.

My conclusion is that for whatever reason, dinosaurs are not prone to mana but they ones that are prone to it get ridiculously stronger. These animals though have it easy and from observation the abilities are passed through bloodline.

The magical animals I have seen look a lot like the animals on earth but difference being their size and abilities they have, there are some exceptions like Boar with stone armor like skin, a large fox with horns on its head. Dire wolves with wings and lions the size of a liger with three eyes.

While everything I have seen has been a wonder, the cruelty of nature still presents itself to me like an enormous man eating plants that swallows anything moving that comes close to its vicinity, Tigers who wander to the human settling and proceeding to massacre and devour them.

With my journey now coming to an end, I perched upon a tree

And thought about all the creatures I have seen, which one caught my interest the most and will be my choice of creature for creation.

My choices are between the bears, tiger and gorillas, but first i have to infiltrate each group to see which one among them has the most intelligence, intelligence matters most to me not the abilities.

With a new goal in mind, I flew out to find a group of bears and integrate myself with them. Bears normally don't live in a group but they can be neighbors and help groom unrelated child bears.
