Chapter 616 - Yukihime’s New Body
-----
Mikoto and Vasilisius had been sitting there in silence and patiently waiting for their turn into becoming alive, but that might have to wait until tomorrow, the entire team was exhausted, me included, and we didn't wanted to do anything else than rest for the moment.
"Sorry, we are leaving you two for tomorrow. Perhaps it might delay a bit, but we'll get you done eventually." I said.
"Eh?! Oh…" sighed Vasilisius.
"Yeah, everyone is tired… I guess I can wait one or two more days, I don't mind. I've been waiting almost a thousand of years since." Said Mikoto.
"Yeah, you two will have to wait all while I enjoy my moment of being alive… Heheh!" laughed Yukihime.
POOF!
"HUH?!"
Suddenly, Yukihime was covered in phantom and her entire body turned ghostly.
What is this?
"Ah… huh? I turned into a ghost?!" she asked.
But then, the phantom dissipated, and her body was left intact.
"This is… I think you just covered yourself in phantom to the point your entire body momentarily turned into a ghost as well… I suppose this is a new ability unique to you as the soul of a ghost attached to a pseudo living body…" I said.
"So this is a new ability I can get! You guys could also use it in the future I guess…" said Yukihime.
"I guess..." said Vasilisius.
"I can't wait to have a body! Maybe Drake would be willing to mate with me? We could have a new family of dragons. Don't worry, it can be a one-night thing!" said Mikoto.
"EH? Why are you talking about something like this so casually and out of nowhere?! Are all dragons this open over having sex and laying eggs?" I asked.
"Well yes, we are rare so whenever we met with another of our kin from the opposite sex, most of the time we immediately mate." Said Mikoto.
"I-I see… Sorry but no… I am happy with my wife." I said.
"Well, what a pity. I had to try it at least." Said Mikoto.
"You could always mate with the giant snake he got, right? Ahahaha!" laughed Vasilisius.
"Stop talking nonsense, you toxic old man." Said Mikoto angrily.
Mating with another dragon… I guess I never got the chance. I found Benladann first. Although after drinking my blood, she suddenly gained draconic powers, and can even unleash a small breath attack or generate scales and a tail, she can't become a true dragon yet, nor she can generate wings or other things yet.
Maybe if she evolves sometime? She could one day become a dragon too or be able to transform in one. But by then I don't think I'll care… either way, our daughter is half-dragon, and a holy dragon at that, so we are keeping the dragons alive with her.
Now its up to her to have grandchildren for me in the future one of these days. But I don't know if she'll ever find another dragon male, and I don't want her to be mating around at a young age either! I am keeping her as a virginal princess until she's mature as a dragon… in… erm, 100 years or something, yeah.
"Mikoto you're pretty stupid to ask him for that now, he already got a kid and all!" said Yukihime.
"I apologize…" sighed Mikoto.
"Don't worry about it, I guess it is natural for dragons… Erm, whenever we find a male dragon I will try to present him to you, if you're desperate for making children." I said.
"Oh, that would be nice of you, thanks." Said Mikoto.
The life mages walked outside the room as Mikoto and the other two were left with me, alongside the two weapons.
"Hmm… I think I gained even more Abilities though… Let's see… I feel like the mana core inside of me all resonate with some sort of power. I feel like different beasts are residing within me. Are these mana cores from monsters?" asked Yukihime.
"Yeah, the Ice Moon Sect Elder also got one of those and he had developed new abilities and even a Monster Spirit, so you could do the same now, the mana cores from monsters come with a part of their soul and essence, perhaps if you develop them, you'll be able to summon their power." I said.
"Ooohh! That sounds pretty interesting now that you talk about it… Maybe I should give it a try, I will practice magic and other things now that I got some many new abilities to play around with, and the best thing is that I am still holding a high rank thanks to my mana core inside of my soul, heh!" said Yukihime, smiling pridefully at Vasilisius, as if trying to tease him.
"Just you see! I will get a body tomorrow!" he said. "Right?"
"Yeah, you'll get one… We'll try. If everyone is not exahsuted though." I said.
"Hopefully you prioritize the people's rest over this old man's desires, Drake, so don't worry, delay it as much as you want to!" said Yukihime.
"You damn wench!" roared Vasilisius.
I left the ghosts speaking with themselves, as I moved out, the two weapons floated around me everywhere, without giving me a break.
"You guys, have you tried eating? Maybe we could cook something up, I want to cook for my Benladann and Benladra, they're still sleeping and its already 1 PM… they got heavy sleeps." I said.
"Sure! Maybe your cooking can taste like something more?" wondered Skadi.
"We have humanoid bodies but everything always tastes quite dull…" sighed Uller.
"Well, I got Cooking Magic, as a Cooking Mage, I would feel ashamed if my cooking cannot be tasted by you two, so let's get to it." I said.
We quickly moved into the kitchen as we began to cook some food, I made them some sweet pancakes with extra sugar, syrup, and fruits, alongside some whipped cream on top, and I also gave them some toasts with butter on top slowly melting, cheese, and slices of ham.
They slowly began to eat everything while drinking coffee… their eyes began to shine.
