My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 450

Chapter 450: The Golden Flash and Charcoal’s Human Forms

“Did you hear? Watson discovered some ancient ruins near the border, where he discovered a World Tree, dragons, and Phoenix eggs.”

“I heard about it a long time ago, but it is a hoax, right? I heard that Watson did not find the World Tree at the border but in the Forest of Eternity and brought it home.”

“What you are saying is incorrect. Watson went to the Forest of Eternity and carried the forest back to the border, transforming it into the World Tree. The Elven Kingdom has become a desolate wasteland.”

Not long after Watson left the Royal Academy, rumors began to circulate. The students gathered for a discussion; their faces lit up with excitement.

For them, what happened in the Dragon Knight recruitment process was reason enough to applaud the young man for a long time. People questioned whether the kingdom’s strongest genius was only average after Watson was found to be incompatible with any of the dragons. However, Watson then used his actions to prove that the kingdom’s strongest genius would always be the kingdom’s strongest genius.

He had platinum-tier magical beast meat, Phoenix eggs, and even water from the Spring of Life.

Those legendary foods were only available in Watson’s home. That prompted everyone to wonder about Watson’s background and how he could possess so many magical things simultaneously. Since the rumors were becoming increasingly ridiculous as they spread, it prompted many people to travel to Watson’s hometown, the border, to take a look.

“I have to go to the border to take a look when the Royal Academy lets us off for a vacation.”

“I have never been to the border in my life. Perhaps I can be like the chosen one, Watson, and find some ancient ruins there and collect a plethora of treasures.”

Most of them had made their decision. Watson said that he had discovered those treasures in the ancient ruins. They were skeptical about that. After all, what Watson said was flawed. However, if he did not find those items in ancient ruins, how did Watson get them? It would be even more ridiculous if Watson claimed to have created those things himself.

At the palace…

King Landhar III was sitting cross-legged on the bed in his bedroom as he spoke to the two men in front of him, Lubin and Gerant.

“Are you sure you are not lying? Are those items really that common at the border?”

“There is no need for us to lie, Your Majesty! The thing with the World Tree, that was just us bragging. Don’t take it too seriously.” He treated the platinum and diamond-tier items as normal because he had been in Mount Creation for a long time. He had almost forgotten how valuable those items were in the outside world. If he took them out hastily, it would cause quite a stir.

“Is that right? Let’s not talk about those things,” King Landhar III said, smiling. “You should visit your family in the royal city. I shouldn’t keep you here any longer. I have one more question. How many people like you are at the border who have consumed potions made from the Spring of Life and advanced to platinum-tier angels?”

“Well—”

Lubin paused for a moment before turning to face Gerant. They realized that Watson did not want them to leak Mount Creation’s power. It was also impossible to give an ambiguous response in front of the King, so he paused for a moment before saying, “Not many. Only the people on Mount Creation are angels.”

“Angels on the mountain’s range. I understand. You may go.”

So, Lubin and Gerant left as King Landhar III nodded and waved his hand at them.

Mount Creation was equivalent to the border. The people on the outside had no idea that Mount Creation was the border. Obviously, they would not consider it. Lubin played with his words. Typically, they had tens of thousands of angels on the mountain. King Landhar III would not have guessed that the millions of people gathered on the border were all angels.

“Watson, every time I think I have figured you out, you surprise me! No one knows how large that mountain range is.”

“Fortunately, I had planned to take advantage of Watson’s departure to set up some arrangements.” King Landhar III narrowed his pitch-black eyes. “I need to speed up the plans now that I have seen Watson’s strength! What do you think, Sidi?”

A pitch-black shadow suddenly moved on the wall behind him, and then the shadow appeared on the wall, transforming into a woman. “Is my opinion important? That’s not in my line of work! But I must remind you that making a move against Watson is not easy. He is better than I thought at using.”

Sidi licked her lips and flickered her eyes as she spoke. “What I didn’t expect was that the potion he gave Augustus today was from the God of Poison. That was my authority. I had no idea how Watson stole it! I had intended to assist him with the potion-making process. Now it appears that I will be unable to assist him in any way. That poison, however, is a trade item with the Dragon Clan. Is it really a good idea to let the Dragon Clan eat it? They will not let you go once they discover it is harmful to the Dragon Clan.”

“It makes no difference to me. Sidi, you should visit the Campbells later. Meet with Lubin while you look in on Augustus. It is best if you can help Augustus get rid of the poison in his body. After all, he is a tremendous talent for the kingdom. I can’t stand seeing him tortured like that.”

“You had the opportunity to save him, but you chose not to. Now, you want to play the good guy while defrauding others. Don’t you think your actions are very bad, King Landhar III? Of course, you can ask me to do that, but I should get something for my trouble,” Sidi said, crossing her arms behind her head.

“What kind of reward are you looking for? Resources I got from Watson? I can give you ten Phoenix eggs and ten catties of platinum-tier magical beast meat as long as you heal Augustus.”

“As well as a bottle of water from the Spring of Life.”

“I agree!”

Sidi turned into a shadow and left the room after reaching an agreement with King Landhar III.

‘Sidi appears to have adapted to the human environment, as I had predicted. However, it appears that she has already taken Watson’s side. Will it be difficult for her to snatch that thing from Watson, or has she reached an agreement with him? In any case, it is not good for me. I will not be able to persuade her to do much in the future.’

Initially, he had a lot of things to do after Watson left. It would be very convenient if Sidi were not there. However, he had to deal with them one by one.

“Summon Samuel from the Sword Saint family.”

Soon, Samuel arrived at the King’s bedroom and knelt respectfully on one knee.

“Your Majesty, how may I be of service?”

“I have not spoken with you in a long time. Are you well?” the King asked.

“I am well, Your Majesty. The God’s Remains that you bestowed upon me have blended perfectly with my body.”

“Really? Please show me.”

“Your Majesty, what’s going on? Do you not believe what I said?” Samuel asked.

“I told you to show it to me.”

King Landhar III was very audible. His voice, tinged with rage, reverberated throughout the room like rolling thunder.

“As you wish, Your Majesty.” Despite his reluctance, Samuel extended his right hand. On the tip of his right hand, a ball of black, viscous liquid appeared. Black lines in the shape of a spider web squirmed between his fingers, a silk line falling to the ground and eroding a hole in the ground.

“So, you still have the God’s Remains I gave you. I saw Watson use the same ability, and I was worried that he had extracted the energy from your body.” King Landhar III rose and approached Samuel. He extended his hand and patted Samuel on the shoulder.

“You must be joking, Your Majesty. How could I bear giving away the gift that you gave me? Watson’s ability may be similar to mine. Perhaps you have seen it wrongly?”

That was not impossible. “By the way, do you feel any discomfort?”

“No. Didn’t you say that there would be no side effects if I have good talent while bearing God’s Remains in my body? I am not bragging, but I believe I am talented.”

“Let’s not get into that right now. I asked you to keep an eye on Watson’s movement. I am curious what Watson has been up to these days.”

“Your Majesty, Watson, he…” he said. Samuel only told the King a few insignificant things. King Landhar III listened patiently and did not show any signs of annoyance. Instead, he looked pleased. “That’s not bad. Keep up the good work. I will give you a Phoenix Egg for your performance. That is a legendary item. Have you heard of it?”

“What is a Phoenix Egg? An egg laid by a legendary Phoenix?”

For a brief moment, Samuel was taken aback. Then, he reacted. His eyes became warm, and his breathing became labored.

King Landhar III saw nothing out of the ordinary after carefully observing Samuel. “Yes, it is exactly as you think,” he said after a brief moment of thought. “Since you didn’t provide me with any vital information, I can only give you a Phoenix Egg. You can come to me at any time if you have more information later. You want more rewards? It is not impossible, based on the value of your information.”

“You can rest assured, Your Majesty. I will work hard and report on everything Watson does.”

He chatted with King Landhar III for a while before leaving the palace.

“Report everything without leaving anything out?. It would be a miracle if he could pull it off.” After Samuel left, King Landhar III threw the documents on the table closest to him to the ground and smiled.

It seemed like Sidi and Samuel, those two pawns, had been removed! ‘Watson, I am afraid it would have been difficult for me to discover it if you hadn’t left the capital at this time.’

No matter how gifted Samuel was, the God’s Remains that Sidi had given him would disintegrate in two to three days. He was there to find the antidote. However, it had been several days since Samuel had taken the God’s Remains. Samuel was strong-willed, and he could still hold on. Who would have thought Samuel was in such good health?

Samuel said that there would be no negative consequences as long as his talent remained good. King Landhar III was sure that the God’s Remains had been removed from Samuel’s body as soon as Samuel said that. Watson, who had revealed the same power, was the only one who could do it.

“Since the power in Samuel’s body has been removed, how is he still able to use it? Was it because of the thing in Watson’s body? Furthermore, do Antonio and Reid know about Samuel being under my control? I hope they’ll choose wisely. After all, I don’t want to lose two experts who are capable of defending the kingdom!”

King Landhar III sighed. Despite his calm demeanor, he exuded confidence. He seemed to think that as long as he was willing, he could kill Reid and Antonio at any time.

“Watson had shown me the Severed Fingers Gang. I had mistakenly assumed that was Watson’s full strength. Now it appears that I am a little too naive! Watson did not appear to have come to the capital to become stronger. He had set his sights on my throne. Since you have such a strong desire, I will meet it.”

It was unknown what he was thinking, but King Landhar III smiled smugly and called out again.

“Men, summon my sons.”

The time it took to summon the three princes was short. The princes entered the bedroom dressed formally. They stood neatly in sequential order. The First Prince smiled and bowed to King Landhar III. “Congratulations, Father. I heard that you had signed a contract with the Dragon Clan to expand the Dragon Knight Legion and also received a large gift from Watson’s hometown.”

“Oh? I have not told you about it yet, but you are aware. I am curious where you heard that.”

“There is no need for anyone to tell me that, Father. Those items are now here in the capital. I doubt there are any people in the capital who are unaware of this.”

The Second Prince was the one who spoke first.

“Ah, I see.” King Landhar III nodded. “What are your thoughts on the subject?”

“Of course, it is a compliment. Father, you are extremely wise, and Watson truly is a genius. Watson’s gifts to the royal family now include Phoenix eggs and water from the Spring of Life. They can also help to strengthen the kingdom! In a few years, the kingdom will be able conquer other kingdoms,” the First Prince said.

The Second Prince said, not wanting to be outdone, “The main points should be the potions made with the Spring of Life, as well as the ruins Watson mentioned to find those things! Watson claimed that the ruins had collapsed and could not be found, but I believe he is lying. We can still find the ruins as long as we deploy the kingdom’s army to search for them. If there are still treasures that have not yet been collected, we will be wealthy if we find them.”

“What do you think, Third Brother?”

“Father, I believe that Eldest Brother and Second Brother’s opinions are right. However, I have a feeling that this is not in the best interests of the kingdom. Instead, it is extremely hazardous! Nobody knows whether Watson’s claim about the ruin is true or not. Perhaps it is as Watson had said. The power displayed by Watson is even more terrifying. He does, in fact, have angels as subordinates.”

When confronted with King Landhar III’s question, the chubby third prince pinched his fleshy chin; a worried expression appeared on his face as he said, “Since Watson has a potion that can create an angel, who knows how many angels he has under him? It is not necessary to have a large number of soldiers. A few thousand would be sufficient to destroy the entire Holy Dragon Kingdom.”

With such power, dominating the kingdom was only a matter of time for Watson as long as he wanted to do that.

“You are correct. Only my third son appears to be useful.” The amiable expression on King Landhar III’s face faded and turned cold as he nodded. “I am not sure how you are my sons. You do not have any of my skills! Take a look at Watson. He is only 12 or 13 years old, but he is already capable of assisting me in negotiating a contract with the dragon race. He can even bring me Phoenix eggs and other valuables from his hometown. He also has a potion that can be used to create angels. He can assist me in forming an angel army and dominating the world. What can you do?”

“We—”

With awkward expressions, the three princes looked at each other. They were powerless to intervene.

As princes, the elite education they received as children enabled them to compete with some geniuses. They thought they were powerful, but they were nothing in comparison to Watson. They considered themselves to be geniuses, but geniuses could not be compared to monsters.

“Given your behavior, I am concerned about entrusting the Holy Dragon Kingdom to you. I would rather hand it to Watson! Even though Watson is not my child, he has the potential to help the Holy Dragon Kingdom grow even more magnificently. He will also marry Kiana soon. Even if he becomes the king, the bloodline of the Holy Dragon Kingdom will remain the same.”

King Landhar III spoke slowly. His words made the three princes pale and broke out in cold sweat. The First Prince’s lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he could not.

“We are blood relatives; it is extremely difficult for me to make such a decision directly!”

“What do you think? I will give you another chance. Within a week, you must give me a treasure that is not weaker than the Spring of Life, the angel formula, or the Phoenix Egg. If you can do it, I will not name Watson as the next king right away. Don’t be a prince if you can’t do it. You can live in a farming village.”

“Father, you are right. We understand.”

King Landhar III waved his hand, and the three princes respectfully exited the bedroom. They heard the sound of the door closing behind them as they walked out of the room. The three princes sighed with relief.

“Watson, why are you such a genius? No matter what we do now, Father will still be dissatisfied with us and even want to pass the throne to Watson. What right does he have to inherit the throne? He’s an outsider?” the second prince said as he clenched his fists.

The First Prince cast a glance at him. “Second Brother, are you dissatisfied with Father’s arrangements? Father is strict with us because of Watson’s outstanding performance. He values our performance, which is a good thing. In your opinion, how did it become Father’s fault? We were not disqualified from the competition because of Father. It is already very thoughtful of him to only allow us to look for special treasures.”

“Eldest Brother is correct.”

The second prince agreed with a fake smile, but in his heart, he cursed the first prince for being a hypocrite. He was clearly irritated by his father’s actions, but he pretended to be calm. He was completely shameless.

“Okay, let’s stop arguing. The most important thing right now is to find a treasure that can compete with the Spring of Life.” The third prince stepped forward. His words caused the other two princes to become concerned. “It is simple to say. The Elven Kingdom’s national treasure is the Spring of Life. How does one obtain a treasure resembling the Spring of Life? We have one week. Even if one went to the Elven kingdom and requested the same Spring of Life, there would be insufficient time.”

“If only we knew where Watson obtained those items. Isn’t it rumored that he has a World Tree at home? He will not have to worry about water from the Spring of Life if he has a World Tree. Wait, there’s the World Tree!”

The second prince sighed. Halfway through his words, he suddenly kept quiet. If anything in the world was more precious than water from the Spring of Life, it must be the World Tree. It seemed like it was necessary to go to Watson’s home. Even if he could not get the World Tree, he could obtain some other things from the border. After all, the local specialty that Watson had sent was so precious. Those things must be abundant there.

It was not just the second prince. The other two princes had clearly thought of that as well. They were thinking about how they could obtain benefits from Watson. The three princes looked at each other and left the place.

They did not see King Landhar III walking out of the room wearing a long robe after they left. He looked at his sons from afar and smiled. “Watson, this time, I don’t have to do anything. My son will take the initiative to dig out the resources and power behind you. Next time, you will get a headache because of my three sons until I complete my plan! However, sending only my sons is not enough. I need to send two messengers who often go to the border.”

The murmurs of King Landhar III dissipated in the air, adding a hint of coolness to the already hot weather.

…

Sneeze!

Sneeze!

Watson sat on Fafnir’s back and sneezed twice in a row. It had been a few hours since he left the royal city. During those few hours, he had been on Fafnir’s back as they rushed to the Dragon Lair. The closer he was to the Dragon Lair, the higher the temperature. He could feel the surrounding temperature rising quickly.

Many of the geniuses traveling with him were forced to take off their coats because of the scorching temperature. They were drenched in sweat.

“Watson, the weather is so hot. Do you have a cold?”

While Fafnir was flying, the huge red dragon turned its head around. Three eyes of different colors stared at Watson, flickering with doubt.

“Lady Fafnir, thank you for your concern. I don’t have a cold. Someone must be thinking about me,” Watson replied with a smile. As for who was thinking about him, he knew that it was definitely King Landhar III.

‘Lubin and Gerant came to deliver gifts. It’s good that they came here secretly. Why did they have to choose to come now? I can’t even explain where those things came from! Those two were talking about looking at me. Don’t tell me that they want to bring those precious things to their family to show off,’ Watson thought about it.

Gerant and Lubin were from the Ptolemy and Campbell families. Compared to the geniuses of their family, they were not valued much. That was why they were sent to the border. When they returned to the family, they would be arranged to have titles and official positions.

However, it was different at that moment. Gerant and Lubin had returned as platinum-tier angels. Together with the large number of treasures they brought back, they could become the brightest elites in the family. Everyone would have to treat them with respect.

It was understandable that Gerant and Lubin were showing off their wealth to their family and friends. However, because of the two of them, Watson would have more trouble in the kingdom in the future.

“Forget it; there will always be a way out. It’s useless to think about what has already happened.”

Putting his worries to the back of his mind, he stroked the two dragons on his shoulders and looked straight ahead at the mountains that began to appear. There was a ring-shaped volcano-like mountain that was thousands of meters high, spanning tens of miles. The clouds and mist on the mountaintop surrounded the faint roar of dragons from within. It was the largest dragon habitat near the royal city, and it was also the place under the control of Fafnir—the dragons’ lair.

Dragons were rare creatures in the world, and it was uncommon to see one. Dragons lived about 10,000 meters in the sky or at some deepest parts of the ocean difficult for humans to reach. So, it was difficult to see them.

At that time, Watson had a very important purpose for going to the dragon’s lair. Obtaining the dragons was secondary, but the important thing was that he had to transform the two dragons on his shoulders, the Golden Flash and Charcoal, into human form.

He had that idea after seeing Fafnir in human form. If his dragons could transform into human forms, Charcoal and the Golden Flash could communicate with him and do things that their dragon forms could not do. That was the reason why he would rather risk exposing the dragons in front of King Landhar III. Of course, it was also why he was unhappy with Julius.

At that moment, while Watson was thinking, Fafnir and the other dragons had already approached the Dragon Lair above the ring-shaped mountain range.

It was thousands of meters high in the sky, but there was no trace of coldness in the ring-shaped mountain range. Instead, the hot temperature distorted the air under the ring-shaped mountain range. Dragons of different colors were poking their heads out from the rocky cliffs on both sides of the mountain range. At the bottom of the mountain range was a river made of pure magma. A large part of the scorching temperature in the mountain range was due to that. A few adult dragons were soaking in the lava as if they were bathing.

Most of the dragons in the lair had fire elements. They had scales that leaned toward red or gold, and their horns were towering.

“Everyone, this is where we live. Welcome to the place where I reign.”

After approaching the Dragon Lair, Fafnir placed Watson on the mountain range and transformed into a human. Similarly, Olena, Rem, and the Dragon Knights landed on the mountain range with hundreds of students. Many of them looked shocked. As the Dragon Knights had the experience of selecting dragons before, it was not their first time there, so they were much calmer.

“Lady Fafnir, we’ve waited for you for a long time. Finally, you’ve arrived. The dragons in the nest are impatient. Are these the people you’ve selected to become Dragon Knights?”

At that moment, an old voice echoed. An old dragon with the appearance of an old man flew out of the nest. The old man’s clothes were very strange. He was wearing a loose, sleeveless robe; that was because his body, including his head, was human. On the contrary, he did not have arms. Instead, he had two dragon heads with long necks. One was blue, and the other was red. They looked very strange.

“Long-armed Dragon, go and inform the other dragons. Tell them that they have worked hard. I will now complete the Dragon Knight recruitment ceremony with the recruits that are compatible with them.”

The old man named Long-armed Dragon immediately nodded, turned around, and flew to the bottom of the lair. The two dragon heads on his shoulders roared. In a short while, thousands of dragons flew out of the lair. Flying in the sky, they looked down at the people with a scrutinizing gaze.

Thousands of dragons fly at the same time. “This is the first time I’ve seen such a shocking scene.” Some people could not help but sigh when they saw so many dragons for the first time.

Some people were looking for the dragon they saw in the dragon totem previously. “I’ve found it. The dragon that matches with me is much stronger than the phantom that I saw in the Dragon Totem.”

Many students were excited. At that moment, Fafnir opened her mouth and said, “Don’t be happy yet. The previous test only showed that the power in your body matches a dragon, but it doesn’t mean that you can form a connection with them. Other than the power that matched, there’s also another critical point in becoming a Dragon Knight—you have to like each other. If you don’t like each other, even if your powers matched, you won’t become partners.

“The following process will be a face-to-face exchange to see if you can get along with each other. You can use any means you want as long as the dragon acknowledges your status! Your king requested 90 recruits. If we have more than that, I will choose the people with a higher degree of compatibility. If that number is not enough, I will also negotiate with the dragon appropriately and add some more. Now that the trial has begun, the outcome will depend on your luck.”

As soon as Fafnir’s voice fell, one by one, the students spread their combat aura wings to fly into the air to look for a matching dragon. Some dragons also took the initiative to come in front of the students. The scene became lively.

“Come with me, Watson. Other than the fire dragons that I command, the rest of the dragons are known by other names. The Dragon Totem stores the basic information about the dragons that were sent over the spatial channel. I am going to take you to meet the dragons that did not record their information. Let’s see if there are any that meet your needs.”

Watson stood apart from the rest of the crowd as if he did not belong there. At that moment, Fafnir approached him.

“Lady Fafnir, there is no need to be in such a rush. Can I ask you a question first?”

“What is it?”

“I am not sure if you can teach me how dragons transform into a human. I am hoping that my two pets will be able to transform into humans as well.”

Watson stated his wish. Fafnir looked at the two dragons on his shoulder, but she did not respond right away. “Watson, you dare to ask for the magic that we use to transform into our human forms? Our elites developed it many years ago. Is it appropriate to ask about that?” Ren pursed her lips.

“Of course, I am not going to ask for it for free. I will give you a reward. How about a potion that boosts the dragons’ reproduction rate?”

“Watson, didn’t you already create that potion? What do you mean you won’t take it for free?”

“To be specific, the potion that I created is not really a potion. The side effects are severe! I think I can make a better potion than that. I believe the Dragon Clan does not want to use a potion with potentially fatal side effects to jeopardize their lives.” Watson smiled calmly.

“Are you saying that you purposefully created the side effects?” Rem’s eyes widened. Even though Watson’s potion had side effects, she was still pleased with its effectiveness. She had not anticipated that Watson would not use his full strength in that situation. What would happen if Watson took the potion seriously?

“Watson, I agree with your request,” Fafnir said as she opened her mouth and looked at Watson. In any case, the magic used to transform a dragon into a human is not particularly powerful. Furthermore, it only works on dragons! As for the improved potion that you mentioned, let’s talk about it after I impart that magic to you.”

If Watson had said that to her before, she might have thought he was bragging. However, her opinion changed when she saw the local specialty that Watson’s two subordinates had sent over from afar. Watson’s likelihood of lying was low if she could get something like the water from the Spring of Life. It did not matter if Watson lied as long as he gave her some of that.

Dragons drank from the Spring of Life would live forever. Even if their fertility rate was low, if the dragon race would not die off. I would be no different than artificially increasing their numbers.

Fafnir did not keep Watson waiting any longer; she calculated in her heart. When she extended her finger, a flame appeared on the tip of her finger. “Watson, this is the magic that can turn a dragon into a human.” She carved a ball with dragon language into the air. “This has no effect on humans. It is possible that the dragons will not be used to it when they first use it. It will be fine after a few days of practice.

Watson had already memorized the dragon language in front of him into his inner breath and turned it into his own knowledge as Fafnir spoke. Simultaneously, he fused it with the knowledge that already existed in his mind.

“Fusion system, activate.”

[Congratulations, Master, for successfully fusing two transformation spells. You have obtained a diamond-tier transformation spell, as well as a plethora of transformations.]

[Diamond-tier spell: Plethora of Transformations]

[Effect: Unrestricted transformations into any known living creature. Not only will the appearance of life change after transformation, but so will the structure of life. Non-living things can also change.]

[Additional ability: Inheritance (after transforming into a certain living creature, one will inherit a portion of its ability).]

Watson passed the specific information of the transformation spell that appeared in his mind to the two dragons lying on his shoulders, the Golden Flash and Charcoal. Watson could transmit his ability to any existence that believed in him; the magical beasts he fused had pledged their allegiance to him.

The two dragons immediately flew upward after sensing the knowledge he had imparted to them. As they began to transform, their bodies flickered in mid-air.

The first to transform was the Golden Flash. The diamond-shaped scales on his body began to fall off one by one, revealing skin as white as jade beneath that. Following that, his dragon head and back wings contracted, transforming him into a handsome young man with silver hair. He was about 12 or 13 years old at the time. A long robe made of nebula draped over his body, lending him a sense of dignity.

The Golden Flash had transformed into a human boy. “My honorable Master,” he said as he flew toward Watson and rushed into his arms. “Thank you for bestowing me with the ability to take on human form. I am Golden Flash, your most adorable and loyal pet, and I can finally talk to you!”

What had happened?

Fafnir and her two family members’ eyes widened. She did not know Watson would learn that spell quickly, but the Golden Flash on Watson’s shoulder had already transformed into human form. His talent was far too great.

What surprised them, even more, was that the situation was far from over.

The Death Omen Star Dragon’s body shrank as she transformed into a young girl the same age as Watson. Four stars floated above her head. Her entire body was wrapped in bandages as if she were a mummy. Her long black hair flowed to the ground, her face was stunning beneath the bandages, and her pitch-black eyes were like an abyss that could attract anything.

“Golden Flash, as soon as you transformed into your human form, you rushed into Master’s arms.” Watson knelt on one knee after the girl appeared.

“As a pet, it is too disrespectful! You also addressed Young Master Watson as Master. It is a very corny title.”

“What do you mean, Charcoal? I was barely able to speak and wanted to practice a few more words. What is the problem with that? Furthermore, you said that my title is out of date. Can you think of a better title?”

“Of course!” Charcoal said.

“The way I address Master is the same way as those Blackmoon Knights usually address me,” Charcoal puffed up her flat chest proudly.

“It is meant to reflect my admiration. Why don’t we call him Father?”
