Ch.16 The Dragons Awaken
The reason that Eridel had left the Dragons on a forced hibernation till now was because the regular dragons still had remnant essences of destruction in their bodies. So he had 2 choices.
He could remove the essences of destruction for free, although it would cause a bit of pain because of how attached it was.
Or, he could leave it, and wait for the magical energy outburst to forcefully complete their dragon transformation. In that situation, they would gain resistance to the Laws of Destruction and gain better talents in the process.
All they had to do was survive until the magical outburst, and it needn’t be said which option Eridel chose.
Just to clear things up, a magical outburst is when magical energy suddenly increases all around the planet while at the same time forcefully entering all the things that could accept it.
The biggest magical outburst was always when a World upgraded, especially when magical energy was appearing for the first time, like now.
That was why everyone was entering the first realm of cultivation. The more talented ones directly entered stage 2 or higher of the first realm.
The ones who already had mana experience 1 or 2 breakthroughs. Even Dodo broke through to stage 2 of the Spiritual Beast realm.
As a matter of fact, because of this crazy outburst, every Tree became a Magic Tree.
This is a fact that would cause millennial monks to cough blood with shock. And the reason for this was that every other World would never have a magical outburst this generous.
There was a big difference between the Eridel World magical energy and foreign World magical energy.
Let’s start off with the fact that magical energy is fundamentally blue in colour if you could see it. But this freak of nature Eridel had somehow influenced the magical energy released on his planet, causing it to be gold in colour.
But the influence didn’t stop at just colour. Now, the always unaffiliated and most impartial magical energy... had an affinity with souls.
On top of that, they were all full-on-dragons now with everyone gaining wings on their backs, horns that grew out the skull and a dragonoid body.
This event naturally caused Eridel to be excited and he decided to wake everyone apart from Gaia and the Destruction Dragons up.
At the moment, the Destruction Dragons were too ruthless, too strong and too talented. They would completely collapse the ecosystem if they were allowed to run wild. Especially with that prick Aeshma there.
When a few beasts entered the late stage (stage 7-9), that’s when he would release the destruction dragons. At that time, they wouldn’t just dominate everything on sight and would actually have to work to get things.
As for Gaia, it was better to leave her with the destruction dragons for now. If she reacted negatively to them, at least she wouldn’t be able to kill their defenseless bodies.
As the dragons began to wake up one by one. Eridel quickly created an underground cave with a concealed pathway to the surface and left the destruction dragons there along with Gaia.
At first the Dragons were disorientated having slept so long, but they quickly discovered the changes in their bodies and the lack of pain, this caused them to roar with excitement.
RAAA! RAAAAAAAAA!!!
These roars... Well, they tried their best. They’re only newborns after all.
Eridel looked at the dragon who started the first roar. There were a few alphas here but he was the biggest. Bigger horns, denser scales, broader wings, majestic golden eyes and a longer tail. Oh, the tail tip was even spiked.
Actually, a few dragons here had augmentations like that, but they were quite crude. Spiked backs were seen and spiked wings too, but they were so poor and ugly that they couldn’t be useful for anything and weren’t worth mentioning.
But this Alpha’s tail had a spike at the tip that looked very sharp.
...Another Chad?
