273 Venus (2/2)
Raven just allowed the snake to suck out as much blood as it wanted. He wasn't really afraid of experiencing any blood deficiency since the purity of his blood as well as its density were very high, this was due to his first 3 Transformations that elevated his physical body to another level.
The snake was more than happy to obey, it knows that the subsequent meals after this won't be at this quality so it's taking advantage of his master's generosity.
”What should I name you then?” Raven remunerated for a bit while staring at his mount. ”Whitey? Snaky? Albina?”
The snake presented its displeasure at those names by sending signals through the mark that connects both of them, since its mouth is busy doing something. Raven pouted and said: ”It seems that you also don't like my naming sense.”
”Hmm…” Raven thought about good names for a while and kept on suggesting things but will always end up being rejected by the snake. Nevertheless, Raven kept on listing names he came up with: ”Venus? How does that sound?”
The snake pondered for a bit and sent happy signals to Raven. He sighed in relief and said: ”Alright, I'll call you Venus then, you picky girl.” He laughed and caressed her shiny scales.
Venus then finally released her fangs at Raven and nudged her head on his palms, clearly enjoying the adoration he was giving. Raven mobilized his energies and closed the wounds on his arm. He then asked her: ”Come girl, let me see how heavy you are.”
Venus then moved according to his wishes and allowed herself to be weighed by Raven. After inspecting for a while, Raven said: ”Oh, quite healthy you are. Almost 500 kilograms, very good.”
Venus hissed and wrapped herself lovingly on Raven's body. He didn't mind this since for Raven, she is actually very light - that or Raven is just used to having weights around his body.
”Alright, girl. Now's the time to show me what you can do.” Raven urged, to which Venus nodded in understanding.
Moving at an alarming speed, which should be impossible for a snake at her size, she dislodged herself from Raven's body and slithered around the chamber. Raven watched in wonder as Venus started climbing at a smooth and flat surface of the walls without any signs of falling.
One thing that shocked Raven is when Venus coiled herself at the corner of chamber and instantly activated a camouflage. If it weren't for her connection with Venus, Raven wouldn't suspect a snake to be inside this chamber at all. Raven nodded happily since this ability would offset the curse of albinism to her.
Seeing her Master happy, Venus became happy as well. She then started to show another set of her abilities to impress him even more.
Venus could spit out a metal corroding acid. Something that she used to melt down the metal platform, where the seed previously were placed, in mere seconds. She is also powerful enough to bury herself underground and stay there for at least half an hour before eventually needing to re-surface.
She also has this one final ability, where her scales would brighten up and release a special type of energy that could protect her. Venus couldn't communicate well with Raven as she's just an infant but from what Raven could tell, attacks under Knight Realm power shouldn't hurt her while she at this state.
Raven was immensely satisfied. Though she couldn't act as a mount for now, it doesn't matter since she'll eventually grow into one. She's already four meters long during her infancy so as long as Raven treats her properly, she should be able to grow into a massive snake.
Raven didn't doubt even for a second that Venus will eventually grow so large that he will eventually have problems where to keep her. He had seen snakes like that before. Some of them were so large that they could wrap themselves around a kingdom or two. But in all honesty, Raven thought it would be cool to have a mount as big as that.
”Alright, girl. I'm impressed.” Raven chuckled and picked her up, Venus lovingly wrapped her body around him as they began walking out of the room. ”Time to introduce you to my family, stay still and try to not freak them out okay?”
Venus nodded and wrapped her body around Raven's neck. She then surprised Raven as he felt her shrinking and transforming right before his eyes.
She hid her head on Raven's collar, her body then transformed into a piece white cloth that adorned Raven's neck like a scarf. This caused Raven to be shocked once more and couldn't help but to adore her cleverness for thinking like this. He petted her now scarf body and said: ”Good girl, now let's go.”
