The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1877

Chapter 1877: Veda

"If you’re not here to ensure that I do not keep a dragon among my bonded beasts, might I ask why you were sent to the New Home Merchant Clan? Perhaps your mission is something that I can help with, and it might change what room would be best." Karl offered, changing the topic away from the likelihood of Opal recording visitors.

The visitor smiled. "I am a seeker of the Blue Dragon, and I was sent here to attempt to discern where the New Home’s sudden power influx came from. There were multiple rare skills recorded that the Dragon Libraries didn’t have them recorded as knowing, and possibly, one that we have not recorded before.

However, now that I’m here, I have a good idea of where to start.

The source should be you, right? According to my System, it says that you have [Ancient Runeforging] as a Trade Skill, and that is an extremely rare one."

"Well Miss" Karl checked her nameplate, "Veda, it’s a pleasure to meet you. I knew that the blue dragon would get curious eventually. Indeed, I have the Ancient Runeforging skill, but we also have dozens of Runecrafters, and a few Divine Runesmiths in the guild. So, while I might be responsible for some of the new skills, much of the new knowledge is up to the creativity of the Guild."

Veda laughed, "In that case, I might as well take a room here for longer than just a few days, or I’ll end up commuting by portal every day to do my work.

Tell me, how did you manage to find so many Runecrafters?"

"I trained them, naturally. A secret skill of the World Dragon Avatars."

The Seeker stared at him, and her eyes flashed with bright blue holy light.

"Secret skill of the World Dragon Avatars?"

"If I told you, it wouldn’t be much of a secret, would it?"

Veda rolled her eyes, "Fine, be like that. But those Priestesses, they’re constructs, but not summoned creatures, right? You found a way to put their creation spell on an object."

Karl nodded. "Indeed. It’s a trick that most Runecrafters can do, if they know the Epic Golem Spell, and the requisite runic formations to create the base of the spell. It takes a significant amount of mana to activate, but if you do it right, it’s self-sustaining."

"So, you don’t have members dedicated to funnelling mana into a storage stone just to keep your Guild House active?"

"That sounds incredibly inefficient. No, the Guild House only needs support to keep the protective barriers active during an attack. I really should have asked the Avatar to help with that before he left.

He seemed like a friendly sort, for a Black Avatar, and he might have helped us with a Divine Barrier over the Guild House."

Veda stared at him with an expression that said he was either insane or stupid.

The Blue Dragon’s Seeker of Knowledge laughed. "You have mastered the art of dealing with the Green Priestesses. Were you perhaps raised in the church? I know that you have a World Dragon System, but on some worlds both of them coexist."

"On the mortal realm world where I was born, in fact. We all have World Dragon systems, but the church is the dragon church."

"Then you understand better than most, I suppose. I don’t sense any other Dragon Clerics in the immediate vicinity, though. Just a spider, an Elf and a bunch of Lycans, plus the visitors."

"Ah, I have a separate space for most of the Guild to relax in that is a bit larger than the city, with more natural space. Essential, especially to the flying members of the group."

"I take it that you do have dragons in your Guild branch?"

"Yes, quite a few of them, actually. But the core group contains a black dragon, a Red Dragon dragonkin who can transform to fly, and the Green Priestess, who can transform into the most adorable hatchling sized green dragon."

The Seeker sighed. "That’s likely deliberate, isn’t it? I can’t think of any spell that only gives you a hatchling form."

Karl nodded. "I believe that her advisor dragon, or whatever Priestesses get, is also a hatchling from the Divine Realm. They talk fairly frequently, as the dragon is a curious sort, as expected of a green dragon."
