Beast Evolution Forge

Chapter 35 Zone Pt.1

"Look at you, seems Wren's training is working, i can feel faint mana coming from you. nice."

Her face lit up with a proud smile as she heard these words. "Hehe, yeah, she is a very good teacher. I have learned a lot from her. If this continues, I can be of help to you and not just be holding you back."

"Don't sell yourself short, You are working hard, that's all that matters. If i was going to throw you away, i would have left you at the city."

She looked even more happy, his words washed away all the worries she had. "Yeah, thank you for bringing me with you, i will try my best to be a good party member."

"Good, that's the spirit."

Her eyes shifted to his shoulders. "By the way, are those slimes? they look so strange, never seen any like that."

"Yep, picked them up last night, aren't they cute? Say hi kids."

"Gloop gloop! Bloo! Squee!"

She giggled, her eyes sparkling with delight. "Oh my gosh, they are adorable! I've never heard slimes make noises like that before. So you tamed them or did you just bring them with you?"

"I tamed them, they are part of my family now, so say hi to your sister over there." They jumped off and wobbled over to Wren who was sleeping, surrounding her and squeezing against her. She woke up in shock, jumping back and almost attacking but after closer look, she could sense they were part of her master's family, just like her.

She glanced over the other way, seeing him standing there smiling. She wasted no time in leaping at him with a happy expression, rubbing her head on his chest.

"Prrrr."

"Yeah, i am back, did you and Yenna get along?"

"Don't worry," he said with a wink, "I'll cover for you. That's what a team is for, right?"

[Master.....you are acting weird.]

'shut up, i need to convince her that its going to be ok, otherwise we will stay here all day.'

"O-Ok." She blushed, following close behind him.

They jumped over the river and before even landing, Yenna could already sense that the air was different, the mana in the air was thicker, almost sticky.

"This place..." She whispered, clutching her hands. "It's like it's breathing."

He looked back at her with a large grin. "I know right, even I was creeped out at first but its not bad once you adjust."

Wren's fur bristled as she scanned their surroundings, her sharp eyes and ears alert for any sign of movement. Her tail flicked with anticipation, and she stayed close to her master, ready to leap into action at a moment's notice.

"I have a bad feeling about this." She was nervous, turning at the slightest noise.

[Master, are you sure about this? She's still not able to use mana, shouldn't you have trained her first, at this rate she will die.]

'you worry too much, you can't get real results through half assed methods, we need to hunt, its the only way to get stronger faster.' His eyes changed, a shape of pupils not seeing in his eyes before.

[....its leaking again.]

'Oops. It still hard controlling this power.'
