"Wait, what makes you our mother?" I asked, my voice filled with curiosity and a hint of skepticism.
The Beast Queen's eyes gleamed with a fierce inner light. "Yes, this will increase your power faster than a human grows in the forest. This is due to the presence of an anomilastic aura."
I nodded, a sense of wonder washing over me. "Okay, you have already saved my life, so it's like you gave birth to me." The words felt strange, yet true, as I spoke them.
The Beast Queen's expression softened, her voice taking on a gentle tone. "And I will explain to your brother what he must do to protect himself from demons."
As she spoke, she offered me her milk, and I felt a surge of energy and nourishment flood through me. Our newborn sister began to grow at an incredible rate, her level developing rapidly, and she reached Planet shaper level 4. The progress was astonishing, and I felt a mix of awe and trepidation.
My brother also increased his level by two steps, and I felt a sense of excitement and hope. But as I drank the milk, I felt a strange, tingling sensation in my body. My skin seemed to soften, my canines sharpened, and my muscles became stronger than ever before. I, too, increased my level by two, and a sense of pride and wonder filled me.
However, the Beast Queen's next words struck a chord of fear within me. " I will die because of my weakness," she said, her voice firm but laced with a hint of sadness.
I felt a wave of disgust wash over me, hating myself for being so frail, so unable to protect our New mother. But I knew I had to push forward, to become stronger, and to protect our new family.
When beast queen says
Beast Queen: "I will transfer my life force to the three of you and perform a sacred ritual to release the energy that will elevate your cultivation. Take a day to prepare, for tomorrow, your journey begins. You must cultivate for a month, or until my energy wanes."
Prapti's eyes welled up with tears as she heard her mother's words. Beast Queen's expression softened, but her voice remained firm. "Don't cry, Prapti. You must become the strongest, avenge me, and find your father."
Prapti's voice trembled. "Who is my father?"
Beast Queen's gaze seemed to hold a thousand secrets. "When you're strong enough, you'll discover the truth yourself."
Prapti pleaded, "But, Mother..."
Beast Queen's voice turned stern. "Enough. Rest now."
We obeyed, and when we awoke, Beast Queen was casting a spell, surrounded by a swirling aura. "Absorb this energy and elevate your cultivation. Remember, flee this forest the moment I pass."
We began to absorb the energy, and our levels rose rapidly. The cracking sound of our stages advancing echoed through the cave. Over 33 days, my brother's stage rose, followed by my new sister's, and finally, mine.
But as the energy waned, I saw Beast Queen transform into a majestic beast, her eyes locking onto Prapti. They growled at each other, and after a heart-wrenching exchange, Prapti approached me, tears streaming down her face. I felt a deep sorrow, knowing my new mother would soon be gone, and my hatred for the demons intensified.
The Queen of Beasts growled, her eyes beckoning me closer. As I approached, a radiant light burst forth from her chest, enveloping me in its warmth. My system alerted me to a new notification: "A new bloodline has been identified. However, introducing an impure bloodline directly poses risks to the host. Purification is necessary to ensure safety."
The system worked its magic, and I felt an intense energy coursing through my veins. "Bloodline purification successful. Two new bloodlines from distinct beast species have been integrated." The message continued, "Accepting this bloodline will alter your species. Proceed with caution."
I hesitated, yearning to remain human. Yet, this was my new mother's final gift, her last wish. I accepted the bloodline, and my body began to transform. My skin softened, but my blood churned in a turbulent dance, freezing and boiling in alternating waves. My muscles hardened, then relaxed, as if reborn. My meridians hummed with renewed energy, and my veins expanded, becoming stronger and more resilient.
The transformation was exhilarating and terrifying, like a storm raging within me. I felt my body evolving, becoming something more powerful, more extraordinary. The Queen of Beasts' final gift was reshaping me,
As the transformation ceased, my level surged upward. But my joy was short-lived, as I gazed upon my mother's lifeless body. Tears streamed down my face, and Prapti and Eshu joined me in mourning. Our sorrowful wails echoed through the cave, a heart-wrenching chorus of grief.
After an hour, our tears subsided, and I tenderly carried our mother's body outside. We buried her with reverence, paying our respects to the incredible beast queen who had given us life and strength. Returning to the cave, Prapti approached me, her eyes locked onto mine. She touched her forehead to mine, and a notification appeared: "A beast desires a soul bond with you. Accept?"
I was taken aback, unsure of what to do. "Prapti, what are you doing? We're siblings; we don't need a bond like this." Prapti's voice trembled, "But mother said it was her final wish. She wanted us to be connected, and promised that I could transform into a human girl if needed, by forming this bond with you."
My heart ached, but I accepted the bond, knowing it was our mother's last desire. The weight of our newfound connection settled upon me – when I died, Prapti would too. After a day of rest, we set out to escape the dark forest. Four hours of travel passed, and finally, we emerged into the light. In the distance, a village came into view, about 4-5 kilometers away.
Our levels had risen significantly but we were aunaware of it thinking we are still at normal cultivation :
Aysha: Galaxy Conqueror, Level 5, Phase: peak
Eshu: Galaxy Conqueror,Level 3, Phase: peak
Prapti: Galaxy Conqueror,Level 1, Phase: Middle
Our journey was far from over, but with our combined strength and newfound bond, we were ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
