Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her-Chapter 177: Seisha

The mist arrived right after the last rays of the sun left the island. It floated around, hurling and roaring in anger as it tried to find the little creatures who actually dared to injure it.

Sadly for it, Veer and his group had eaten the pill and shifted their base to the underground of the river. Fortunately, they didn’t encounter any Aquatica Creatures so they were able to make the barrier properly again.

Sitting inside the barrier, Veer asked, "What did you say again? Like there were other things in the platform?"

"Yeah, they were in a hidden chamber so they survived, well, sort of so we can use them," Aurora smiled and said.

Then, she took out a few potions and showed them to others. There were many bottles filed with various types of liquid, most of which was purple and green.

"Wait! Are they recovery potions?" Elizabeth asked, surprised.

"Yeah! We now have a whole pack of these recovery potions, be it stamina, vitality, or mana. Everything can be recovered from these," Aurora grinned and said, telling them as if she was a street vendor.

"There are also a few of these potions which will help us Ascend to next stage," Aurora smiled and said. "So, it’s best if we stay put and increase our strength first. So, what stage everyone is at?"

"Peak of Intermediate and can break through to Advance any time," Veer said. "I will take atleast two days for it so you can leave me alone for a while after this. Hopefully, we can have that time." Continue reading at novelbuddy

"We will have, don’t worry," Elara waved her hand at him and then answered Aurora. "As for me, I’m also at the Intermediate Stage, well, mostly that’s because of that Iron Woman. I can also break through to Advance Stage soon, and I can be quicker than him."

"I’m also at intermediate Stage, but I doubt I can Ascend to Advance Stage so soon," Rock sighed and said. "It will take atleast a couple of days for me. My body is getting stronger day by day due to fighting monsters and eating their meat, not to mention my Mana Circulation."

"I’m also at Intermediate Stage," Elizabeth giggled and said. "Just give me one of those potions and I can Ascend to Advance any moment. Being a part of royal family has it’s perks."

As everyone turned to look at her, Rain pondered over her situation and said, "I think as long as I can assimilate with the mist I devoured, I can Ascend to the Advance Stage. But I don’t know how to."

"I can help in that so don’t worry," Veer said, reassuring her. "Just be ready."

"Alright, it seems that everyone except our tank can breakthrough the Advance Stage," Aurora realised what she had spoken and quickly corrected herself. "I’m not poking fun or anything at you, so I’m sorry if I came like that."

"It’s fine. It’s the truth, after all," Rock shook his head and said. "A tank is supposed to be the protector of the team so they cannot lag behind. It is my fault so I will work hard to catch up to you and work as your shield."

"Good, since this matter is decided then let’s not waste our time," Veer said. "I don’t think we need sleep, right? Well, atleast I don’t like it so let’s practice for now."

An idea formed in his head as he continued, "But before that, I will go and try something."

Saying that, he left the barrier and chose a direction where he could feel a few powerful auras. Slowly, he swam towards that direction and found a sea snake, dark purple in colour devouring a fish the size of an adult human.

[Name- Nag]

[Type - Aquatic Magical Creature]

[Rank - Elite Stage]

’Hmm, this will be difficult but it’s worth it,’ Veer smiled and turned around, seeing his tomboy girlfriend following him. He was speechless and used his connection with her to talk, ’The hell you’re doing here?’

Elara’s short hair floated in the water, as her battle suit clung to her athletic figure. She felt Veer’s gaze on her body and smiled, ’Say that after you stop pinning holes in my body through your eyes.’

Veer rolled his eyes and focused back on the sea snake. It wasn’t any different from the land snakes, but it’s body was made to suit the waters.

’Easily over twenty metres long and two metres wide. Damn!’

’I’ll take care of it,’ Elara said. ’You can try your magic, but I’m sure it’ll attack you. I’ll handle that.’

Veer nodded and then flapped his legs to go near the sea snake. As expected, it quickly noticed him and hissed, it’s tongue coming in and out of it’s mouth. It slapped it’s tail, covered in ring like substance, against the water to warn Veer.

If he dared to come closer, he would become it’s snack.

Veer raised his hand and came to a halt, showing his peaceful attitude. Fortunately, the snake had eaten it’s share already and wasn’t in the mood to hunt Veer, so it just slapped it’s tail once again and turned to leave.

Veer quickly followed it, annoying the big guy as it slapped it’s tail again. Then, it advanced towards him at an incredible speed that left even Veer shocked.

In just over a second, it arrived near Veer and stopped, circling around him and observing him. It’s eyes seemed confused, wondering when did the river had such four legged species.

’Damn it! I can’t even use voice here,’ Veer cursed his luck, but still smiled amiably and showed his smile. Surprisingly, it worked as the snake flicked it’s tongue on his head, it’s big vertical eyes filled with curiosity and confusion.

’Well, aren’t you an intelligent one?’ Veer smiled and put his hand on it’s head full of purple scales. They were hard, like an armour, making him wonder if the snake possessed some hidden powerful bloodline.

’Wait! In Eastern side, they did believe that snake can become Dragons, so is it true here too?’

He wondered, having little knowledge about the might Creatures. Smiling, he caressed the scales as he let the snake curl around him.

’Want me to intervene?’

Hearing Elara’s voice in his head, Veer realised the position he was in, but still, he didn’t feel any danger so he replied, ’Its fine!’

Then, he tried to send his emotions and intentions to the snake, as his aspect worked for him. It easily converted into thoughts that the snake could understand and established a temporary connection.

The sea snake seemed confused at first, then it flicked Veer’s face again, and rested it’s head on his head. Not knowing what it was trying to do, Veer just let the big guy do it’s thing and scratched it’s undersides.

He heard some satisfied groans from above him, and soon received a singal that the sea snake wanted to try this bond thing.

It didn’t understand much of what Veer wanted, but it had enough intelligence to know that it wasn’t harmful, or atleast Veer didn’t have any harmful intentions.

Veer was ecstatic, as he never expected his plan to go so easily. Still, he wasn’t complaining as he also liked the clueless snake.

Putting his head against the giant head of sea snake, Veer tried to form the connection between them. It was similar to when he had made his bond with Liliana.

His soul navigated the chaotic, nascent soul channels of the snake, and soon found it’s soul sea. It was a purple world, and in it’s centre, a small pearl was resting on a cushion.

Not letting the breathtaking view take over his mind, Veer touched the pearl. His eyes widened as he watched the pearl explode in purple particles and assimilate in the surrounding.

’Why does this seems so familiar?’ Veer wondered, before he realised something. ’Wait! That’s Dragon’s Blood Essence! And a powerful one at that! Fucking hell! So it was true!’

The sea snake was most likely a descendant of an Ancient Dragon and was carrying a Dragon Blood Essence inside it’s soul, but due to being weak it couldn’t use it.

Veer’s bond allowed it to break free from the seals and assimilate with the hidden Dragon Blood Essence. Only now Veer understood why the snake seemed so close with him. It was most likely drawn to his Dragon Master aspect.

In the next moment, he was thrown out of the Soul Sea and came back to his body. He watched in astonishment as the Sea snake’s body changed slightly, it’s scales growing darker and two curled horns growing out of it’s head.

The sea snake closed it’s eyes, feeling the warmth and change in it’s body. It could feel it’s strength growing and became happy. It began to circle around Veer, making small water vortex around itself.

As he was connected with it now, Veer could sense it’s happiness and felt glad he had met the big guy first. He raised his hand and the sea snake stopped, looking at him with it’s big eyes filled with happiness.

"You don’t have a proper name, Right? Well, I’ll give you one. You are Seisha!"
