165 True Materialization pt2 (2/2)
”I will allow you to make the decision, if you agree to this request merely leave the Egg in the space for my research. If not then I will think of a way to do so without the energy. . .” explained Draig as he turned his back and deactivated his materialization resuming his Hybrid form.
”Predecessor?. . . .” called the Ancient Demon confused as to why Draig seemed to be leaving.
”The Dynasties won't be a problem much longer. . .” stated Draig cryptically as he walked out of the base and was welcomed back into the arms of the Miasma floating around outside.
'I need to return to the capital it seems. . . at the very least to tell the emperor not to worry about the situation' thought Draig though unknown to him he was being watched at this very moment by an unassuming object.
'Powerful. . . mother has returned finally. Please wait just a bit longer mother, I will see you soon' came the thought of the observer.
Draig unaware of his observer dashed from the spot, his mana and Deva energy intertwining around him like a whirlwind allowing him to blast through his old limitations of speed. Thus Draig began his journey back to the capital though he would do his best to keep his new found Materialization a secret, it would be best if he used it as a trump card while pretending his hybrid form was the true Materialization.
'I haven't even been able to test the full might of this brush yet. . . to do so I need to find a powerful opponent among the Deva or even demons. However this is a relief as I now have the use of my runes again, though something seems inherently different about them. This is yet another reason for me to find an opponent to test these differences. . .' thought Draig as he ducked and dodged any obstacles in his path.
He was interested to see just how far he could make it before his reserves ran out, this would also serve as a good way to learn how to fight beyond his exhaustion of mental energies and rely on his physical prowess.
The longer Draig remained in this world the more he began to realize that he was lacking in actual talent, this was especially the case when he had lost the ability to use any of his Avatars. No fighting style to speak of other than his Systematic slaying and the very few techniques he had created in the old world but were now negligible without the Powers of the Feratu line to back them up.
Inside that oh so familiar cavern the woman watched Draig with excitement, she had slowly been coming around to cheering for Draig. She hadn't even noticed it herself but the more she watched the Vampire swagger through the World of Deva the more she found him likeable and entertaining.
”He is growing so much. . . it seems being stripped of his god like abilities is what he needed to truly flourish and reach his potential. Ha Ha Ha, I wonder if this makes me his patron” chuckled the woman cheerfully.
She was enthralled with the recent events and couldn't help but laugh seeing the usually serious but sometimes random Feratu begin putting on an act similar to a great Master of an era. She loved how the Ancient Demon that had been set to become the next Immortal class folded before Draig like some shameful Junior that had been admonished.
The way Draig kept overcoming situations in bizarre manners had her hooked on him and had her interest into the next worlds adventures surging. She very much wanted to quickly have him switch to a new world but she didn't want to miss anything he would do in the World of Deva, it was a cause for anxiety in the woman as she didn't want to miss the actions of the Vampire.
However back with Draig he had grown distracted during his sprinting and blasted through a tree causing him to stumble before tripping and carving a shallow trench in the ground with his body.
'Should have been paying attention. . .' thought Draig as he got to his feet and began running again.
He wanted to hurry and get the task with the Capital completed at first but now there was a way for him to profit from the situation, on top of this it would allow him to remain independent from the Capital for some time. Thus killing two birds with one stone in his opinion though he would need to learn a bit more about the energy structure of the Demons if he wished to make his profit.
This in mind he continued his journey to the capital, only time would tell if he would do this successfully. The Feratu was becoming more than he ever would have if he had stayed the path of the previous world.
