Chapter 9 - I Will Not Be Like The Others!

After shouting, Noah quickly got out of the water and stood there looking to see what was going to happen, and then 1 minute passed and the water started to get clean again, and when he saw that Noah asked "What the hell is this?" while he gaped at the water that was again getting crystal clear in front of him.

[This is a cleansing spring!]

"One what!?"

Noah asked, still not understanding since he didn't know what it was.

[This spring removes all impurities from the body and in doing so the level of your fitness increases dramatically!]

"What!? And why didn't you tell me that before? "

Noah exclaimed as he prepared to jump into the water again.

[But now it won't do any good if you jump in there again, because all possible impurities that can be removed with you at this level have already been removed!]

"So I just need to take some with me!"

Noah exclaimed with a smile on his face.

[What would you need more for?]

[With this level of aptitude you will already be considered as a genius among the geniuses!]

"Genius among geniuses? … This is not enough. ... I didn't come to another world to just be like the others. No, far from it, I came here to move, and to do that I need to be unique, and I think that nothing and no one will be able to hinder me if I am the most powerful among all the others. "

"And so I will use whatever means I need to be stronger in this world!"

Noah spoke as he looked at the naked reflection of his new body on the crystal waters of the spring.

[Any means?]

"Yes, by any means ..."

Noah replied as he bent down to pick up his clothes on the floor.

Noah picked up his clothes on the floor and put them on slowly while thinking 'Eh Ji Hoon, you have actually changed a lot, and that in just a few hours of freedom.' Looking with a small smile at his reflection in the water.

After finishing dressing, Noah took one last look at the spring, and turned his back on the phoenix's body.

[Are you sure you are going to leave this here?]

[Those waters can be of great help for you to be able to complete your objective!]

"On second thought, no ah because I take this with me, these waters being in a place where only I know the location, it is much better for me!"

Noah replied smiling as he walked slowly through the tunnel.

[But this place is in the middle of one of the most dangerous forests in the world!]

"Exactly! Knowing this, there is no reason for me to be worried about someone finding it, since almost no one will be stupid enough to enter this forest. And even if they go in and find the place, it is easier for them to get lost than to find the source. "

Noah said with a big smile, as he put his hands behind his head.

[… So you want to use the beasts as guards for your spring?]

"Exactly!"

Noah replied as he took long strides forward.

[… But what if a beast finds the spring?]

"It doesn't matter, there will be no way to take her with her anyway."

Noah replied, taking his hands from behind his head after realizing that he had already reached the end of the tunnel.

Upon returning to the place where the phoenix's body was, Noah took one last look at the place to see if there really was anything else that would be useful there.

And after seeing that there was really nothing useful there, he went over to the phoenix's body and asked "... Does this body fit in its special space?" as he looked at the phoenix's neck and saw that he was no longer bleeding.

[… It fits but, what would you use it for?]

"It fits? Then put it there. "

Noah spoke as he turned and walked away.

Following what Noah had said, the system placed the phoenix's body inside its special space, and the moment he did it, Noah, who had his back to the place where the phoenix's body once stood, felt an enormous heat and saw a bright light coming from your back.

And the moment he saw that light, he quickly turned and looked at the place of origin trying to see what was causing it, when Noah looked at the place where all the light and heat originated from, he saw something that may be more impressive than the phoenix body.

What he was seeing was a large golden egg in exactly the same place as the phoenix's body was before, and when he saw that he said "This is not a ..." without any more words to describe it.

[Yes, this is a phoenix egg!]

"Whoa! How is this possible? The phoenix was… dead, it died protecting its egg… "

Noah spoke sadly after understanding what had happened.

And while the minutes passed that strong and bright light, next to that great heat they began to diminish becoming weaker and weaker. After a few more minutes the heat was almost gone, but the light was still there, dim but it was.

Right after the heat has almost completely disappeared and the light has been low enough to at least looking directly at the place, Noah slowly approached that egg and said "Woo! This is amazing! Is he by any chance alive? …Ouch!" impressed that he was able to see all those fantastic people in less than 1 day of his new life and burning his hand for trying to touch the egg.

[Affirmative!]

[This phoenix chick is completely fine, and will probably hatch 2 years from now!]

"2 years? That's quite a long time! … But tell me something. Can dragons and phoenix live together? "

Noah asked as he tried again to gently touch his right hand to the egg.

[Yes, not least because there are few dragons and phoenixes that really fought each other!]

Slowly bringing his right hand towards the egg, Noah resisted the pain and gently ran his hand over the egg. And with a smile on his face Noah said, "Great, this is going to be wonderful!" while he looked at the egg.

After a few minutes, Noah slowly took his hand away from the egg and said, "Put the inside of your special space too. And carefully, as this is going to be one of my youngest children. " while he blew his hand all red.

As he walked towards the place where he had accidentally fallen to get there, Noah took one last look at the egg and saw it disappear right in front of him, after seeing the egg disappear, Noah looked up and counting on luck. he jumped up with all his might, hoping he could reach the top tunnel.

And the moment he jumped up, he was so high that he hit his head on the ceiling of the tunnel he wanted to reach.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"

Noah exclaimed as he smoothly ran his left hand over the spot on his head that hit the ceiling.

After reaching the top floor, Noah asked the system where the snake's son was and walked through the tunnels while following his instructions.

And then after walking for more than an hour in those tunnels that had nothing, Noah had finally arrived at the place where the son of the semi dragon was.

In fact, in thinking of Noah, for the snake to have said "My son" with such certainty, he thought that the son had already been born and was there waiting for his mother's return, but when he arrived at the place he saw that it was not quite like that , since when arriving in the huge room where the son of the snake was supposed to be, all that Noah found was a huge black egg that was right in the middle of the room making it impossible not to see it.

But in Noah's mind that was not all bad, since if the dragon was not yet born, Noah could easily raise him with the phoenix cub basically as brothers, since his mother's thoughts had not yet been passed on to he.

Noah approached the egg and slowly put his left hand on it and said, "Perfect! This really couldn't be better! " smiling.

Noah withdrew his hands and told the system to place it right next to the phoenix egg inside its special space and walked, while walking towards the exit Noah looked around to see if there was anything there that could be minimally useful for him later.

He looked around until he got to the exit and saw nothing in that place but earth, but when he inadvertently glanced in the direction the egg was in, Noah saw something that at least seeing from a distance seemed to be useful.
