Heir Of Yggdrasil 27 Beast Mode

The days were going by slowly. Growing was a gradual and very pa.s.sive process and a trade wouldn't happen any time soon.

Thus, I spent most of my time trying to clear the next evolution criteria. There were only two of them... and that was two too many!

The one I was working on right now was tri-wielding magic. The other one was to successfully grow a savage beast. Tri-wielding was hard enough I could even control two kinds of magic at the same time how could I do three? But the true problem was the savage beast. It roughly equals a human marquess magus, just that a beast would always win in a direct confrontation. Now my own strength was roughly at that level too, meaning that thing would probably not show me any respect and potentially try to kill me. Not even speaking of where I would get the body from and how long it would take me to deduce and grow it.

Yes, I had my reasons to be a little depressed. Believe me, simultaneously using different elements is hard! I was currently trying to grow a tree and electrify it at the same time. There was charred wood spread all around from all the times the elements collided and spontaneously combusted.

I needed a break so badly! But I just couldn't bring myself to stop trying. I had taken it easy once and the consequences were disastrous. No repeats.

Back to trying. Another explosion, more debris. Rinse and repeat...

Explosion, repeat, explosion, again, explosion, keep going, explosion, Völsung... Völsung?

He had appeared out of nowhere, below him a crater from the force he used to stop his charge.

It was the first time I had seen Völsung's face show any emotion. Wait, not the point. Why did he charge over?

"The spell you taught Nerida, what is it?!"

He seemed excited, ecstatic even.

"You mean beast mode? It's a basic trans.m.u.tation spell for stimulating a beast's bloodline."

"Can you teach me the spell?"

"Sure, but I need to scan the bloodline in your body and calibrate the spell. Also, some compensation would be required."

"Does the strength and purity of the bloodline matter?"

"Völsung your question scares me. Tell me the exact situation."

"Well, I can't disclose too much but if hypothetically someone were to have killed a dragon and successfully received its bloodline..."

"A dragon! And he is the direct recipient! What the h.e.l.l are you saying! I'd have to fine-tune the spell for hours! Do you know how volatile a newly acquired draconic bloodline is?!"

Killing a dragon and a.s.similating its bloodline. Only fools and truly powerful people would attempt that.

The only one I knew of that possessed a draconic bloodline was Lord Abel, one of the sovereigns of my former world. But he isn't to ever be measured with normal standards.

"Is it impossible to fully harness the power of such a bloodline?"

"Define fully harness. If you mean transformation like Nerida's it's possible albeit bothersome. If you think of a full transformation into a dragon then you can forget about it."

"The former is fully sufficient. When can we start?"

"Not so fast there. Let me make this clear. I can't guarantee success and I'll have to take a look first. And about that payment..."

"We will discuss the final payment after you can tell us the odds of success. For now, if it's something minor I can pull some strings but don't expect too much."

"If any beasts obstruct your journey bring their corpses along."

"Will do."

And just like that, he had disappeared with a bang and another crater where he had been standing.

And back to practice I went. Explosion after explosion I refined my control over the elements. Gradually, the elements coexisted next to each other for seconds. It was still followed by an explosion every time but those seconds were real progress.

A month had pa.s.sed during my training. Nothing much happened and that was just about what I expected.

Finally, the fresh blood for the town arrived. A blacksmith, some merchants, carpenters, and tailors. With them came soldiers, adventurers, and some much-needed business. I only had two blueprints and only one of a beast. I had more than 50 wolves now but I wanted diversity.
