After introducing Stella to his two subordinates, Mia offered the pie she just prepared to Stella.
Once she tasted her created dessert, the two easily got along and Mia became another fan of her cooking.
Stella was easily attracted since she loves to eat sweet foods, especially desserts that are made with fruit.
The pie was also offered to Chris by Mia, but he declined to take it. It was early in the morning and he doesn't like to take sweet things early in the morning.
Besides, he has a more exciting business to do right now.
He disappeared in front of Stella and Mia. Stella was shocked by his disappearance and alerted herself to look around the mansion.
She tightens her grip on her hammer while looking for Chris's presence. There is a hint of worry in her eyes.
At that moment, Mia patted her shoulder and gave a sweet smile.
" Calm down Stella, Lord just visited Terra. He will come back soon" she assured.
"Who is Terra?" she asked.
Mia happily replied to her question regarding Terra.
"I'm not sure regarding Terra, but she is a loyal Dragon of our Lord. Moreover, she is also a fan of my cooking"
Stella nodded and calmed herself. She put down her hammer and continued to eat Mia's dessert while chatting with her about her lord.
Inside the Dragon Ranch.
Chris had just entered the dragon ranch and spotted Terra who was now running in his direction.
" Master, I miss you"
She uttered after reaching in front of Chris.
This little dragon action makes Chris smile. She's like a little silly girl in giant dragon form.
To be honest, Terra's current size was close to the size of an elephant.
The horn in the middle of her forehead also grew and was now around 6 inches long.
Sadly, she hasn't grown wings yet, or else that would be great to ride her.
Still, if Chris remembered it correctly.
Earth dragons usually don't have wings and are used to their feet touching the ground.
So chances of Terra being wingless might be possible.
Terra gets close to Chris and lowers her head to be patted.
Yesterday, he also let this dragon come out of the Dragon Ranch though there were no monsters that appeared after they defeated the Ferocious wolf's packs and grappling bear in the morning.
He let her play along with Mia. Just letting alone this little dragon at the dragon ranch will make her lonely.
Besides, his life security depends on Terra, so he will treat her like a real family.
Chris focused his gaze on Terra to check her current status.
Name: Terra]
[Race: Pure Blood Earth Dragon]
[Attributes: Earth]
[Level: 9(30%)]
[Skills: dragon roar, earth spike, earth armor ]
[ Enlightenment: 70/100]
[Introduction: A pure noble blood mythical earth dragon that can control earth.]
Upon seeing her status, Terra was already 30% towards reaching level 10 but her enlightenment status was still at 70 points.
Gladly, the Divine dragon fruit appearance this morning was just at the right time.
He summoned one of the 3 pieces of dragon fruit he harvested and showed it to Terra.
Terra's sensitive nose easily sniffed the item that appeared in Chris's hand.
" Master that looks delicious, can you give me that fruit, I felt like I badly needed that thing"
Well, Chris intended to tease this little dragon first before giving her the dragon fruit. But he denies the idea since this dragon has a child thinking and might hold grudges.
" Alright, open your mouth"
Terra obediently opened her mouth and Chris threw the dragon fruit in her mouth.
Her eyes lit up once the fruit entered her mouth. She chews it for a moment then swallows it after.
" Master, this fruit is really sweet and the taste is very delicious. It was superb."
Chris's face suddenly turned green from jealousy after hearing her comment.
This little dragon was insensitive and broke his fragile heart brutally.
He also wanted to have a taste of these divine crops and the fruits he harvested. But these are precious resources so he doesn't have a choice than feeding them to her.
If he was selfish and ate it for his own, those Divine Quality crops and fruits would be wasted.
At that moment, Chris noticed that Terra's eyes started to get sleepy.
" Master, I feel sleepy"
Chris understood her and instructed her to come back to her habitat.
Terra walked slowly towards her hill and once she reached the top where she loved to nap. She easily fell asleep.
Chris looked at her status again to check out if there was any problem.
Name: Terra]
[Race: Pure Blood Earth Dragon]
[Attributes: Earth]
[Level: 9(30%)]
[Skills: dragon roar, earth spike, earth armor ]
[ Enlightenment: 71/100]
[Introduction: A pure noble blood mythical earth dragon that can control earth.]
He noticed that the Enlightenment was raised by one point.
" So that is how it is, she needed to digest the Divine dragon fruit and the effect will slowly raise her enlightenment during her sleep until reaching 100" he muttered in realization.
Gladly, the appearance of fruit was not during the trial. He didn't expect that eating this divine dragon fruit would let the consumer sleep to slowly absorb the fruit effect.
Well, he stopped dwelling on it.
There is nothing to worry about since Terra was inside the dragon ranch and nobody could disturb her. She can take her time to digest the dragon fruit.
There was already Stella and Kratus outside so he didn't have to worry if a monster popped out outside the barrier today. Those two can handle them easily.
At the dragon nest, Chris slowly approached and checked the dragon egg inside.
[ Item: unhatched dragon egg]
[ Attributes: poison/thunder]
[Hatching time: ready to hatch]
He smiles after checking that the egg is ready to hatch at any moment.
Without further ado, he started to cut the wound on his palm and pour blood on the egg.
His blood was absorbed by the egg and the eggshell started to crack.
After a moment, the dragon's head appeared from the cracks.
Unexpectedly, Chris was surprised after seeing the dragon that came out from the egg.
It was a one-meter-long insect that looked more like a centipede than a dragon. There is a little horn on its forehead like Terra. 3 pairs of wings resemble dragon wings on its back.
At the moment, it was busy consuming its dragon shell and didn't notice his presence.
Chris started to check this dragon's status to confirm if he hatched the right egg.
[Name: Lightning]
[Race: Six Winged Dragon Centipede ( Mutated Bloodline)]
[Attributes: Poison/thunder]
[Level: 1(50%)]
[Skills: dragon thunder breath, Poison body]
[Enlightenment: 40 /100]
[ Introduction: Mutated Dragon Bloodline that possesses the power of thunder and poison, when matured it can evolve into a twenty-four Winged Dragon Centipede]
[ Thunder Dragon Breath: Attributed ability of a dragon that can generate thunder through its mouth and shoot it to targeted enemies)]
[ Poison body: can coat a certain part of the dragon's body with poison. It can poison the enemy upon physical contact]
After checking lightning information, Chris was surprised that this dragon had outdone Terra in terms of offensive ability.
Its close combat range skills and offensive ability are also top-notch.
In addition, this dragon seems to be able to fly with the 3 pairs of wings on its back.
This is great news for him since Terra's ability is more suitable for ground battles and was really at a disadvantage with enemies that specialize in long-range aerial battles.
Terra's earth spikes are a long-range AOE offensive ground attack while her dragon roar is an AOE control effect and her earth armor is a defensive skill.
The versatility of Terra's skills is wide but against aerial units, once her dragon roars don't manage to reach the enemy or affect the enemy, her earth spike she won't be able to use her earth spike effectively and she can only cover herself with earth armor to defend.
Moreover, Chris finally understood why Terra had said yesterday that the dragon inside this egg was strange.
At first, he thought that it was due to the attribute difference between her and the dragon inside the egg.
He was surprised that it was due to their bloodline difference. Lightning was a mutated one.
After Lightning finished eating her eggshell, she looked in Chris's direction and directly pounced on him.
" You are my master," she said while happily walking around Chris.
After he heard Lightning's voice, Chris realized that she was also another female dragon or a female Centipede Dragon.
He stroked his hand over her head feeling the smooth and shiny carapace on its head. He could feel the texture similar to Terra's scale from Lightning's carapace.
At the same time, Chris opens his dragon panel to buy a suitable habitat for her.
After choosing a habitat for her, Chris clicked the icon " buy" and immediately 10 cores disappeared from his Dimensional Storage.
A hill also appeared near Terra territory with dark clouds covering the topmost of the hill.
The habitat was similar to Terra's habitat. The only difference is the mountain's color is black and produces a spark from time to time.
Habitat: thunder attribute habitat(basic)]
[ Space: can accommodate 1 dragon]
[ Abilities: can hasten the growth of dragons (basic), heal dragon injuries(basic), replenish dragon strength]
[ Note: this is only suitable for thunder-attributed dragons]
Lightning's attention was easily caught by the habitat and she suddenly appeared at the top of the mountain in the blink of an eye.
" Master, master I like to stay in this place"
She happily called out.
Chris can only shake his head. She just resembled Terra' 's reaction once she bought the earth attribute habitat for her.
It's just that Terra was deeply asleep in her habitat right now or else he can introduce her new companion inside the Dragon Ranch.
