Chapter 1010 Never Make Them Feel Lonely
-----
The grilled meat, the ribs, and the empanadas and meatloaf were all done, and we started our feast without further ado, right below the beautiful moonlight and surrounded by such beautiful nature, the night was naturally illuminated by the bright Sunstones and the Moon atop the skies.
I happily gave it a bite to everything I could, tasting the goat meat on its many preparations. The texture was much softer than cow meat, and it had a slight flavor similar to horse meat, but there was more texture to it too.
The bites I took quickly destroyed a huge skewer until no meat was left, and then I quickly moved to my second victim, a huge meaty rib, covered on barbeque sauce, Aquarina's recipe!
"Nom!"
Ooh?!
The flavor was so delicious! Sweet, spicy, and even a big tangy! All mixed up with the wonderful texture of the meat around the ribs, which was incredibly soft.
I ended cleaning the whole bone in a couple of seconds, and then moved to the second and third! I couldn't stop, Aquarina made these so good!
"I love them!" I cried.
"You do? Hehehe! I'm glad!" Aquarina smiled happily, biting on her empanada. "Hmm, these empanadas are so big compared to the ones we usually eat…"
"Reallshy?" I wondered, with food in my cheeks. "I'll eat one later…"
Once I finished my third rib, I quickly grabbed one of those empanadas after chugging down some cold tea, the crunchy crust and the nice, minced meat filling, mixed with veggies of all sorts was really nice~
"Hmm, so good…"
"PHEW! This beer goes so well with the meat!" My father was enjoying himself.
"It's really nice, yes." Shade nodded with a gentle smile.
"Mama, pass me the skewers, I want more of those!" Zephy who was sitting on mom's lap demanded.
I remember when I used to sit down on my parent's lap and do the same, haha…
"Ah, all this food is so good!" Pyuku celebrated. "I-I'm getting a bit stronger I think!"
FLASH!
His Aura suddenly grew slightly stronger, it seems he had absorbed some of the powers and magic abilities of the Sunstone Plateau Goat.
"Ohh?! You learned something new?" Aquarina asked.
"I-I think so…" Pyuku nodded. "Hmm… Oh!"
Suddenly, he was able to conjure rock spikes out of the ground, create a small pitfall, and grow two tiny golden horns on his forehead, no longer then three centimeters though, which could conjure a shield of around a meter of height made of sunlight energy.
"This is cool!" Pyuku was amazed. "I didn't think I would get some of the abilities so easily…"
"You're sure amazing!" I said. "I guess the goat was also quite incredible…"
"Well, can't Furoh do something similar?" Ignatius wondered, looking at Furoh who was enjoying half a goat's leg all for himself on his Fenrir form.
"Hmm? Ah! You mean me?! Uuhh…" Furoh said. "I think I can take their form, yes, I've memorized their form."
FLASH!
Suddenly, Furoh took the form of a smaller Sunstone Plateau Goat!
"Hmm, not bad, huh? The abilities that come with this are nice!" He said, wondering around, surprising our group.
He wasn't as big as seven meters, but he was around three and a half. Already taller than the Fenrir form he could take, imitating the White Fenrir we once found near Eastgrain.
He can also take the form of the Gray Fenrir, but he prefers the White Fenrir because it was much younger and flexible, with more stamina.
The Gray Fenrir, the protector of the Hero of Wild Beast's Inheritance was a much older Fenrir, although it had more experience, his body gets tired quicker.
"Although I can take forms of the beings I analyze with my abilities, I can only save a few in my memories…" Furoh admitted. "So I don't have limitless shapeshifting forms. At most I have ten saved forms. Among them there's Pyuku too! Although I can only copy his basic slime abilities."
"Wow… Furoh, you're so amazing!" Pyuku said.
"Well, it's not like I am better than you in regards of these. Unlike you, I cannot combine the abilities of each mimicry form." He admitted. "So I cannot mix them up easily, and it takes a toll on me the more I switch between forms, until I can't keep my form anymore and collapse into my real, wormy form."
"Heh, it was better when you just were a worm." Said Curse, the one responsible for Furoh to not have been able to transform this whole time.
"Shut up…" Furoh sighed. "Oh, I guess my shapeshifting abilities are also very different compare dot Ninhursag, for example…"
"Oh yeah, although yours are much freer to do, mine are connected to my Beast Auras, and each one I add becomes a near permanent addition to my powers. I also need to keep a piece of them with me, and eat a large portion of their bodies, consuming the magic crystal is also useful." Ninhursag said. "And also, I can't just physically transform into these forms, I can also improve their abilities and develop them, helping them evolve their original forms as well."
"I can do this too… My last snack gave me a lot of powers." Pyuku suddenly took the slight shape of creatures he had devoured, it was hard for him to become completely that form, but he was now able to emulate their skin, scales, claws, eyes, a head, tails, and wings, which he could apply into his body like a mini chimera, though they only held as much power as he had. "It's pretty amazing how there are so many different types of shapeshifting…"
"I agree, us three are already so different." Ninhursag nodded. "Yet we are quite alike, haha."
"I suppose so." Furoh laughed as well.
"Yeah!" Pyuku felt happy to find there were more people like him around.
Perhaps like this, he will not feel so lonely like before… We have to keep helping him feel welcomed and loved, and also never alone!
