Chapter 446: Moonlight Spirit Dragon
-----
The other day when I went to steal the graveyards, I ended entering the inheritance of the Ancestor of the Sect, and within it there were many treasures! Amongst the many treasures there, there was the beautiful Moonlight Princess Set that Benladann sported yesterday and conquered the hearts of everyone. Meanwhile, there was also a lot of money in the form of Mana Stones, but lastly, an egg!
Yes, it was a wondrously lustrous egg that seemed to shine brightly with pink and silver light, the egg was covered in bright silvery scales, and it was shining brighter than anything I had ever seen before. It was pink-colored, and rather small for a dragon egg. I would think that perhaps dragon eggs grow bigger, as I remember that when I popped out of my egg (hatched, my bad), the egg was rather big, at least bigger than this tiny egg the size of a human hand.
So how come there is this egg now? From where the heck did it came from? I am utterly perplexed by these news, and I had begun to think that there might be something else to all of this, and indeed, there it was! There is always something more to it.
You see, what happened is that Yukihime and Mikoto had done an experiment. This egg came to be from Mikoto, of course, so it was her child, but it was made not through whatever method she used to lay a lot of eggs without a male, but through a different methods. This method was made by Yukihime and it was made so there could be a new type of spirit, a Moonlight Spirit.
Yukihime had said that there were no Moonlight Element Spirits because Moonlight Magic was more of a branch of Light Magic and not an element of its own. Due to that, there were light spirits, but not Moonlight spirits.
This was her attempt at making the first ever Moonlight Spirit, which ended in using the powers of Mikoto as well, as she had decided to make a half spirit and half Lunar Dragon creature, which was also the first Moonlight Element Spirit to boot! Wasn't that a bit too crazy? Now that I think about it, yes, it was, it was indeed rather crazy.
She had said that she utilized some strange method to bring it out, mostly the power of Magic Formations, which I have yet to crack completely, and several unique Spells, Runes, Artifacts, and more things she used for that special occasion.
By infusing the spiritual powers of Moonlight magic she had gathered into Mikoto, Mikoto was able to lay an egg with spiritual properties!
However, it hasn't hatched for almost a thousand years… Yeah, it was such a pain. It has taken longer to hatch than even Tsukuyomi, the dragon that belongs to Mikohime.
I had thought it had died for sure, or maybe it didn't had a soul, like the System pointed out. I was actually planning to insert a soul fragment into it and make it reincarnate into it to get a Spirit Lunar Dragon Clone! Wouldn't that be awesome?
And indeed, I tried doing just that, but Mikoto became very defensive of the lifeless egg and didn't let me grab it and use it for my nefarious plans. At the end, the damn egg slipped of four grasp due to Benladann, and it cracked into the ground.
CRACK!
I had thought that was it. The egg was surely a goner. It was going to come out with an underdeveloped fetus and some egg yolk or something, and it was going to be rather disgusting.
But the thing is, that wasn't the case… what we saw was rather different instead.
A little leg came out, no, various little legs, and alongside that, a tiny tail.
It was covered by pure white scales, and glistening sparkles of light came out of it.
"Woah! Did it hatch?!" asked Benladann.
"Eh? It had to be just hit in the ground?! I was sure it would die!" said Yukihime.
"M-My baby is born!" said Mikoto.
"I am sure it didn't even had a soul before, how come it now has a big one out of the sudden?" I wondered.
The System quickly came out with an answer, as I learned the secrets behind how it hatched. But it appears that Yukihime also realized it.
"B-Benladann! You became the master of this dragon!" said Yukihime.
"I… did what?!" asked Benladann in shock. I can't blame her; I would be just as shocked as her if I were her. This was indeed a big even that had not happened ever before, but indeed, it just happened right about now. Benladann ended turning into the master of this little and adorable dragon spirit. And she was now its owner! Or whatever.
The little dragon was roaring cutely as it came out of the eggshell. It actually looked like a white snake rather than a dragon, but it had four tiny legs that couldn't move properly. It also moved around sliding in the ground like a snake, and it had a snake-like head with fluffy white hair growing around it. the scales were white and crystalline, and it had two beautiful, pink-colored eyes.
It emanated a strong moonlight aura from within, and it was a physical being, but it had a spiritual aura to it, its entire being was glistening with spiritual aura, in fact, it was very beautiful and cute.
It ignored its mother and Yukihime, as it jumped towards Benladann and entangled her chest.
"Graaooo!"
"Uwah! It's so cute!" said Benladann. The little spirit lunar dragon licked her face adorably, as if she were her real mommy.
"M-My child! Don't you recognize your mother?!" asked Mikoto.
"Well you left it for a thousand years, what do you expect?" I asked.
"W-Well, still! Even other dragons recognized me…" sighed Mikoto.
"It's a child, give it a slack. It will surely recognize you one day." Said Yukihime.
