'No, this time no. I have the luxury of waiting. I can wait for more powerful evolution.' The dragon watched with closed eyes as just the passive income of XP harvested by his minions slowly but surely leveled up his winter soul. The trickle of stats made him grow stronger with each level.
The dragon's eyes suddenly flung wide open as cracking echoed through his divine kingdom.
The small cracks spread through the colorful shell of the egg lying in the middle of a small island. His heart was filled with a mixture of worry and excitement. On the one hand, he was glad it hatched, but on the other hand, he couldn't but worry if it would still be his minion.
'No need to be so negative, even in the worst case it should at least be a new dragon.'
