Chapter 10: | Creation Of The Second Form
---
Blood gushed from my mouth as I coughed a gallon.
"You're truly worthy of my attention."
I gripped its tail and, with a swift motion, ripped it apart.
Kaire howled in pain as his claws swiped down.
I raised my hands, blocking the attack as I stifled a yawn.
Now, I was treating this battle more seriously.
Mana flooded my body, increasing my overall performance severalfold.
Then, cracking my neck, my form blurred.
"Blur-Lance Execution Drive!"
Time fractured, then stopped.
Afterimages appeared, swirling around the dragon as my claws shifted grotesquely, now sharper than ever.
Time resumed.
Countless lines spiderwebbed across Kaire's body.
"Primeval Emperor – First Form: Ruined Fury!"
Blood and flesh splattered across the waters as claw marks cleaved through Kaire's body.
Kaire, no, the black dragon, screamed in pain as projectiles behind it hurtled toward me.
But they were far too slow.
It took only a single step to dodge all its attacks before appearing behind it.
Red lines littered its scales as I muttered.
"Primeval Emperor – First Form: Ruined Fury!"
Then, hell broke loose.
It exploded more fiercely this time.
New wounds appeared even before it could regenerate those from before.
I felt it, heard it in its labored breathing, its vitality had weakened significantly after taking the brunt of my claws.
It was not invincible, even as a dragon.
"Your resistance was futile, but perhaps it was required, since I've had my fun."
I closed my eyes as an inspiration slowly took shape in my mind.
Like that, I was in a trance.
My body moved on its own.
In a split second, the currents screamed as a single red line was etched into the water and across the black dragon's neck.
Then, I muttered.
"Primeval Emperor – Second Form: Emperor Wrath."
A sharp sound reverberated across the entire floor as the water itself trembled and the ground quaked from the impact.
Samantha was sent flying tens of meters away, shocked by the destructive power of my attack.
"How? How can he muster all that power?"
I smiled.
He truly was worthy to become a meal for me and Samantha.
Mana flooded my body again.
In the next second, countless lines, similar to the first, appeared as I muttered.
"Primeval Emperor – Second Form: Emperor Wrath."
Its body was then cut into numerous pieces.
I sighed, took a step, and appeared in front of Samantha, reaching out my hand.
Samantha took my hand and smiled.
"I guess I worry too much about you."
I couldn't help but smile back.
"Well, I guess that's because you truly love me, dear."
Samantha blushed, cuddling into one of my hands, exhausted from watching the battle.
"Are you perhaps hungry?"
Samantha nodded enthusiastically.
"Um... I'm quite hungry right now."
Tentacles sprouted from my back and devoured the excess meat as I carried a few tons of its flesh.
---
On a breezy night, high above a mountain peak, two beings chatted.
The scent of grilled meat wafted for thousands of miles.
"Do you like it medium rare or well done?"
Samantha pondered for a while, then smiled as she gently played with my stomach.
Her voice was seductive.
"I want it well done, just like you."
Grabbing her chin, I raised it, gazing into her eyes as I pressed my lips against hers.
Her looks and appearance might be average, but her inner self was a true wonder that had utterly intoxicated me.
I devoured her, pressing my lips harder.
Samantha let out a moan as she embraced me.
But I broke free from the kiss.
"It's weird that you're so eager today."
Samantha flushed.
"I... I was just immersed in the mood and nothing else."
Samantha wouldn't admit it, and I knew why.
She sat on a stone slab I'd made as I grilled the dragon meat.
An awkward silence ensued for a few minutes as Samantha remained quiet.
I smiled as I readied the food on a clean stone slab, seasoning it with herbs I'd found in the ocean.
"Dear, it's ready."
Samantha perked up, beginning to savor the moment I offered it to her.
I couldn't help but laugh as I dug into my own portion.
The night was beautiful.
I sat on the slab, Samantha resting her head on my shoulder as she hummed.
Her voice was beautiful, and I hummed along.
This day was truly full of surprises, but I couldn't help but wonder.
When?
When would she truly bear my child?
Her humming faded as she drifted to sleep, cute and soundly on my shoulder.
Gently, I moved her head to my lap, stroking her hair and arranging it before glancing at the hologram before me.

Hmm, it seemed most of the skills were pretty much useless.
There were no skills that would give me any sort of knowledge, but still...
I should go with Kaire's strongest skill right now.
Without hesitation, I chose Dragon of Despair.
And just like that, the Harbinger of Myth devoured it without any worry, and I chuckled.
This skill was perhaps too overpowered.

† Dragon of Despair [Ascension VI]
Full-body transformation into a gigantic, ancient black dragon. Sacrifices intellect for primal power and extreme regeneration. Gains overwhelming bulk, power, and durability, but becomes largely berserk.
---
I clicked Yes, my gaze fixed on the skill description itself.
Hmm, while this skill might be broken, it had a pretty big downside, I would lose my intellect during the transformation if I'm not mentally strong.
Worse of all, I wasn't a dragonoid, so the effects would be far stronger.
I guess I needed to gather more skills of the same type and fuse them.
And just by looking at its insane mana cost of a thousand, I couldn't help but sigh.
Truly a trash skill.
Then I gently moved Samantha's body onto the slab, laid down, and embraced her, falling asleep from her sweet allure.
Truly what a wonderful woman.
Darkness devoured my vision as I fell into a slumber.
Days passed as Samantha watched me train.
Her eyes followed my movements, gazing at my abs, then lingering on my breeding tool.
I raised my claw and muttered.
"Hey Samantha, aren't you staring too much? What if I ravage you?"
Samantha merely chuckled at my display, confidently stating.
"Aren't you a gentleman yourself? So why the need to destroy my trust when you're really close?"
I chuckled, appearing before her and kneeling, resting my head on her lap.
"You're truly right. So why would I do that?"
Samantha stroked my hair, humming gently.
"Hey Samantha, what would you like to eat today?"
Samantha stroked her chin like a sage as she pondered for a bit.
Then her expression brightened.
"How about a salad with dragon meat, since we have some laying around?"
I nodded at her suggestion.
"Well, that's an interesting request, since I haven't made a salad before."
Samantha chuckled as she gently stroked my hair.
"Well, don't fail me, or else you know what will happen."
I smiled, then sniffed at her dress, which was now quite foul.
"Well, I can't disappoint you, so I'd better prepare."
Slowly, I walked towards the edge of the cliff, then halted.
"Samantha, do you need me to wash your dress since it smells quite foul right now? Perhaps being naked for a while, like me, would help you breathe?"
Samantha pondered for a bit before nodding.
"Hmm... you're right about that. Wait for me to undress."
Samantha slowly unbuttoned her dress and removed her lace and undergarments, along with the accessories on her body.
Then she slowly walked towards me, embarrassed at her own body.
I couldn't help but feel aroused just by pondering of what she looked, as I playfully turned.
To my dismay, what I saw was quite disturbing.
My voice trembled as rage consumed me.
"What! What happened to your body! Who! Just who did this to you, Samantha! Tell me!"
Samantha crouched, covering her body, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Please don't ask any questions about this, Alister."
My brows furrowed into a deep frown.
My voice was extremely cold and demanding.
"I command you to tell me what happened, and who did this to you."
