Chapter 517: The Mythical Magical Beast 3
“Hmm, is this the Elisha’s necklace?”
“That is right, Gripper.”
“I don’t think that it is fake. If it were a fake, it wouldn’t be able to hold on to such strong water power.”
“Obviously. When did you ever see cheating, Gripper?”
“I don’t think…”
“I know.”
Ian handed Gripper the Spirit King’s necklace, and he looked at every corner of that brilliant sapphire embedded in the center of the necklace.
After a while, he nodded.
“Yeah. You are right.”
“About what?”
“With this necklace in possession, the door to the spiritual dinsion can be opened.”
“Then open it now.”
Gripper’s wrinkled eyes looked at Ian.
He then asked Ian while slightly smiling.
“Just like that?”
“Huh ?”
“Huh, if you like freebies, then you are gonna be down in the dumps.”
“Ah, Gripper, you’re going to be like this?”
Ian and Gripper had the best affinity between them.
And it wasn’t just a story that was going on.
Although he was an NPC, Gripper and Ian were close enough to consider themselves as old friends.
Ian guessed exactly what Gripper wanted.
Ian waited for a mont and opened his mouth to speak with a subtle voice.
“You are curious about the secret of the Magical Beast Transmutation, right Gripper?”
At the question of Ian, Gripper’s expression brightened imdiately.
“Huhu, you pretended like you didn’t know. That’s why I like you.”
“Ha, I don’t have much ti… I am a very busy person. Can’t you just ask Cervian instead of ?”
“I already asked you.”
“Huh?”
“That nasty old man won’t tell .”
“…”
“Co back later as I am busy with the magical beast transmutation; he gave those orders.”
“Haaa.”
Ian sighed.
He guessed the kind of situation it was.
‘Cervian, that old man, he is trying to test the theory of the magical beast transmutation.’
Cervian was the kind of person, who when he falls in love with sothing, he didn’t get bothered with anything else.
Therefore, the orders he gave Gripper were quite understandable.
“If you let know the secret of the Magical beast transmutation, I’ll give you the corresponding information.”
“Inform… ation?”
“Yeah. How is that? Now, do you feel like letting know?”
In fact, Ian had been planning to give Gripper the formula of the Magical beast transmutation.
He knew about the personality of Gripper, who always got curious about sothing and could never let it go.
But as things turned out, Ian’s interest began to arouse in the ‘information’ that Gripper was talking about.
Acting as if he was uninterested, Ian took the bait.
“Ay, I need to know what the exchange information is about. Do you have any idea how hard it was to find the formula of the magical beast transmutation…”
Gripper took the bait almost imdiately.
“Huhu, nice. Then I’ll let you in.”
“Let listen to it.”
“It is about the ‘Marion Khalifa’s Soul Stone’ that you had before.”
“…?”
“I wanted to talk to you about it…”
Ian’s eyes went wide after hearing about it.
It was all because of what Gripper said.
‘What? This old man… has been a fortune teller in his past life?’
Ian felt goosebumps on his whole body.
Gripper ntioned Marion Khalifa’s Soul Stone.
There was one thing that Ian was curious about with that item.
And as Gripper’s story continued, Ian had no choice but to be astonished.
“Ian. In your inventory, there probably is a Khalifa’s Soul Stone. You would have placed it in the magical beast transmutation, but it got rejected from the magic circle, right?”
“How… how did…?”
“Huhu. How did I know? You think there is anything that this Gripper doesn’t know?”
“You don’t know about the magical beast transmutation formula.”
“That… that…! Humph, whatever. Can’t you think of as so doctor while talking and stay quiet?”
The dinsion war with the Devildom—the final battle.
It was Ian who defeated the Marion Dragon Khalifa, who had been the last boss at that ti, and Ian was able to get the item ‘Marion Khalifa Soul Stone’.
And this item was none other than the strongest material for the beast transmutation.
‘I decided to create the strongest magical beast because I had this item.’
Ironically, however, at that point, when Ian had succeeded in making the strongest magical beast, Ian’s inventory still had the soul stone.
The reason was simple.
The soul stone of Khalifa would bounce off from the magical beast transmutation magic circle.
With a questionable ssage, it couldn’t be used as a material.
‘How did Gripper know that?’
Ian gulped and opened the information window of the Soul Stone.
-Marion Khalifa’s Soul Stone
Classification: Goods
Rank: Myth
It is a soul stone that has been left after the destruction of the Marion Dragon Khalifa.
Anyone who has mastered the transmutation can draw the best magical beast with this.
A good beast tar can resurrect the Khalifa through the soul stone, or perhaps create another completely different dragon.
If you succeeded in transmutation using the soul stone, an ultimate beast can be created.

Ian, who read the information window once again, looked at Gripper with trembling eyes.
He then opened his mouth to speak.
“Ni… nice, Gripper.”
“Huhu, surely I thought you’d need to know.”
“Nice. Let tell you about the formula of the magical beast transmutation. In return, let know of the information that you possess.”
“It isn’t much of an information, right?”
“No way. It is the sa.”
“…”
“I bet you can get more than you can imagine.”
At the rant of Gripper, Ian began to calm himself down and explained it to him.
It was a bit annoying before, but when he started to explain it, he started to get imrsed in the topic.
And it was natural for Gripper, who had heard the explanation, to be astonished.
“Key, that is so cool! Deep!”
Seeing Gripper firing up, Ian was satisfied.
“Huhu, it is a theory that contains the essence of magical beast transmutation.”
“I admit. I admit.”
And then ca out the question from Ian’s mouth.
“Kay, now tell . What is wrong with the ‘Marion Khalifa Soul Stone’?”
At the question from Ian, Gripper laughed a little.
“Wrong? Why do you think that sothing was wrong with the soul stone?”
“Obviously. If not, there wouldn’t have been any plausible reason for it to bounce off the circle.”
Gripper shook his head and slowly opened his mouth to speak.
“No. there is no problem with the Soul Stone of Khalifa.”
“Then…?”
“It just didn’t match with the recipe.”
Ian was confused at the incomprehensible story of Gripper.
“What does…”
But before Ian could respond, Gripper cut him off.
“Kay then, take this first.”
In front of Ian ca the system ssages.
Tring-!
[You have earned the item ‘Initial Marion Dragon Recipe’.]
Ian opened the information of the item right away.

Ian confird the recipe, and it made his eyes open wide.
“Wah! Wah! If you had this recipe, you should have shown it sooner!”
“Why should I?”
“Is our friendship only worth this much, Gripper…?”
Gripper calmly responded at the intense reaction from Ian.
“Ha ha, don’t get so excited, Ian. I found this recipe a while ago. The recipe I stumbled on while I was searching through the old docunts of the Devildom.”
“Those lies… can I even believe those?”
“Lies you say!? That is so sad. If I did know this recipe in advance, I would have shown it to you first.”
“Huh… fine I’ll believe you for now.”
Gripper managed to calm Ian down and then continued to speak.
“Anyway, now I’ll explain the story which made you curious.”
Ian’s expression was very serious.
The information he got from Gripper was much more advanced than he was expecting.
In fact, Ian had no reason to regret over what Gripper had said.
Even if Gripper gave him the recipe, it was invaluable to him.
Gripper’s words continued,
“If you see the recipe, how can the base monster be set?”
“It is a dragon race magical beast with a ‘myth’ rank or higher.”
“Right. And the reason for that is right here.”
“…?”
“The Dragon soul stone can be only used as a material when the base is a dragon race.”
“Ah…”
Exclamation leaked out of Ian’s mouth.
The question was solved.
‘So, that was why the magic circle didn’t accept it.’
Ian opened his mouth again.
“That… Was it written on the ‘Old Parchnt’?”
“Yes.”
A much simpler answer than he thought about why the soul stone was bouncing off the circle.
After all the talk, Gripper looked at Ian with a tender smile.
“Kay, I will open the door to the spirit dinsion as promised.”
When he finished, Gripper threw the necklace of the spirit king that was in his hand.
“…!”
Surprisingly, blue light began to erge from the necklace.
As ti went by, the blue light began to change into a large portal.
The portal to the Spirit dinsion.
Towards that, Ian’s eyes couldn’t stop shinning and Gripper opened his mouth.
“Ian, do you know the ingredients in the recipe called the ‘elental stones’?”
“No. This is the first ti I’m hearing it.”
“Surely.”
“Why?”
“You’re going to the spirit dinsion, so get those from there.”
“…?”
“Get those elental stones when you go to the spirit dinsion. The elental stones are material items that can be found very easily in the spirit world.”
“Ah!”
“But it is hard to find the best ones.”
“Oho.”
By this ti, Ian was sorry for pretending in the beginning with Gripper.
‘Surely Gripper is a very generous person…’
There was just too much information from Gripper.
“Get as many high-class elental stones as possible that you can. It is also needed for creating the ‘Marion Dragon Transmutation’, and it is also a material that can be used for creating a powerful relic.”
“Okay, Gripper. I’ll get a lot of them and give you so too.”
“Huhu, I would really appreciate it if you could do that.”
After saying his goodbyes to Gripper, Ian took a step into the Spirit dinsion portal.
‘Finally… the spirit world.’
While laughing to himself, Ian closed his eyes.
New content was going to be unfolded in the near future that was seconds away. The very anticipated one.
