Yeon-woo, Phante, and Edora headed to the elders room in the center.
The egg was still being taken care of by the elders.
Apparently they didnt leave it out of their sight. They were curious about how it would look.
So they entered when the elders room was.
..Mm?
Why are the elders being like that?
I, I dont know.
Yeon-woo tilted his head and Phante and Edora turned away like they were embarrassed.
The elders all had red bandanas wrapped around their heads and were all lying down together holding each others hands.
Dont take the egg!
A new Legendary Beast might be born! More research is needed so give us more ti!
Yeah, of course. Its still too early! You even finished the trial of the 11th floor already! Allow us to look into it a bit more!
No. All that aside, you dont even have the Seed of the Moon yet! How are you gonna wake it up!
If you still want to wake it up! You! Will have to do it over our dead bodies!
..
They couldnt see his face because of the mask, but Yeon-woo had an extrely surprised face right now.
Was it because I denied their request yesterday?
Last night, Yeon-woo had told them beforehand that he would co to take the egg back. And that he was going to hatch it soon.
The Council of Elders requested for more ti.
Even the Head Elder, who normally didnt speak up, asked himself. Adding on that since they had uncovered new things couldnt they have so more ti.
Actually Yeon-woo didnt need to worry about it that much.
It had been a while since he finished the trial of the 11th floor. It was more comfortable to leave it with the tribe since he didnt know when it might wake up.
However, Yeon-woo was able to read so of the eggs thoughts with his connection to it.
That it wanted to wake up.
No, to be more precise.
Like it wants to tell sothing..
Not communication through the connection, but it felt like it wanted to see for itself.
Thinking about how in the past it only woke up and started crying when it was hungry, this was a huge developnt.
Like it had suddenly grown up. It seed like it had internally developed a lot.
From when had he felt this way?
After getting the Neidan of the mythical dragon back.
Thinking about it, he looked down at the elders again.
The elders were still unmoving, lying on the ground.
The egg mustve been nice for the elders to get rid of their curiosity.
Apparently, through different experints and tests, they had discovered a lot of facts about Mythical Beasts eggs that they didnt know before.
And one of them was the fact that Yeon-woos egg was a Legendary Beasts egg.
So for the elders, who had to amuse themselves by making new Mugongs, it was a sha that the egg was being taken away from them.
They said as you got older, your ntality beca younger. It was exactly this.
It seed it would take an eternity for them to get up. Yeon-woo just stood there and thought about what to do with them.
lightsvl m Edora glanced over at Yeon-woo and tried to reason with the elders.
But.
[Master. Should I blow these kids away?]
Chirpy read Yeon-woos thoughts and landed on his shoulder. After Yeon-woo awakened his Dragon Body, Chirpy was influenced as well and he was a bit bigger.
Oho! Isnt that a bird?
I did hear the child of the Phoenix absorbed the soul of the Sabertooth Tiger. I see thats how a Legendary Beast looks when its developed. But its appearance is definitely different than recorded, perhaps affected by his owner.
Black stripes. I must take note of this. It can be used to see how much he continues to grow in the future.
Then on this side..
The elders had rushed over with sparkling eyes. The passion to observe him closer could be seen.
[These guys are weird..cant I blow them away?]
Chirpy beca surprised, then scared.
Yeon-woo nodded.
Yeah. Go ahead.
[Ok! Got it!]
Chirpy spread his wings apart.
The elders who were exclaiming in delight soon flew away like autumn leaves blowing away in the wind.
[Humph! Acting out!]
Yeon-woo heard Chirpys cute complaints and smiled, leaving the room. Phante and Edora followed him, shaking their heads. Edora still couldnt raise her head, embarrassed.
They soon arrived at the location where Yeon-woos egg was located, and flung the door open.
Inside, the Head Elder paused writing down sothing to push up his glasses and look at them.
Youre here? The elders mustve made quite a fuss.
The elders were looking inside with painful faces from the doorfra. However, they werent able to co in because of the sharp glare from the Head Elder.
They said the Head Elder was the second in power after the Martial God. No, everyone other than the Martial God was scared of him. It was clear the rumors were correct.
Ill talk to them for you at a later ti.
Its fine. It wasnt that bad. Is this the guy?
Yeon-woo nodded his head at the egg next to the Head Elder.
It was bigger than when he last saw it. It was over 4 ters tall, and it had beco wider as well, almost as big as the wall.
The patterns on its surface were much clearer as well.
They looked like green and black spotted on like a crocodile, but there was a certain order to it.
Will it get angry if I say it looks like a waterlon?bender
Yeon-woo, thinking pointless thoughts, asked the Head Elder.
If I wake this guy up, how big will it be?
Hm. If its crunched up inside. It depends on the thickness of the body, but itll easily surpass 5 ters.
Then I should wake it up outside.
Ill be grateful for that. And those useless people out there will get a look too.
Yeon-woo nodded and lightly waved in hand in the air. When he did that, a shadow extended itself and wrapped around the egg to lift it up.
Oho?
The Head Elder shined his eyes at the appearance of the Monster Portents that were different from the Soul Familiars.
While it emanated the aura of the undead, it was different from the normal undead, so he wanted to check it closer.
Yeon-woo took the egg outside to the courtyard. He heard the elders complain, but he ignored them and spoke with the Head Elder.
While you were gone, I found out so more stuff about the egg. First, I think were sure that its a Legendary Beast. Its strong and tough. And its dormant skills are quite developed. Especially the anti magic power part.
Yeon-woos eyes sparkled.
Anti magic power ant that its resistance to general magic power was outstanding.
It was definitely a plus since it was able to be free from magic power. However, that also ant that buffs or magic of that kind didnt work on it.
But if it was tough, it could physically overco those cons.
But I cant tell its property or how it looks for the life of . I know that sothing sturdy is inside, but its hard to know more than that. Everyti I try to check, I get flicked out because of the anti magic power.
The Head Elder said this was the first ti this happened to him. There were only 4 Legendary Beasts that the public knew. And they all had special properties, and authorities to control.
So it made sense that the Legendary Beast inside the egg had properties.
Actually, thats the reason why the elders are telling you not to hatch the egg yet. If you wake up the egg because it looks like its finished but its not. Then it ans well have forced it up, and thats not good.
The elders who were following him all nodded. You could see in their eyes that they wanted him to change his mind.
Its ti to wake it up. Because its crying out that it wants to leave now.
Yeon-woo cut away their hopes instantly.
The elders despaired at the fact that they couldnt change his mind anymore. The Head Elder just nodded his head without any emotion.
If thats what the master says, it must be right. But how are you going to wake it up? You dont have the Seed of the Moon.
Ive thought of a way.
Mm. Then its fine. But just in case, take this.
The Head Elder dug around his pocket and tossed sothing in the air. Yeon-woo quickly caught it and was surprised.

Category: Miscellaneous Item
Rank: A
Summary: A holy seed that has grown after receiving the energy of the moon in a cave after a long ti. After being prepared, it can be consud as an outstanding supplent.
This?
Yeon-woos eyes beca bigger.
Even though he had participated in the war on the Red Dragons side?
Since Phante and Edora are a part of the sa tribe.
Pardon?
Yeon-woo asked in rebuttal.
The Head Elder lightly laughed, as if amused.
The two are One-horned tribe mbers. And royal mbers. Since they were with you, you didnt fail the quest.
Yeon-woo realized what he was saying and bitterly smiled. He had used the loophole in the system.
If the result of the quest wasnt clear, then the person who gave it could determine if it was successful or not.
Just think of it as a present for taking good care of Phante and Edora. With my authority, giving away a root is nothing, so dont worry. Of course, if the King knows, hell throw a tantrum saying that he wants it too, so keep it a secret.
The Head Elder waved his hand, as if it was nothing, and glared at the other elders. As if saying they should watch out if they told.
