Chapter 432: The egg
Jayden along with his entire family had gathered at the boundary of the beginning Kingdom right in front of the smoke wall, all the things that they needed to prepare were finished by now, and Jayden was going to accompany them for some time in the forest before separating for his own journey.
” It’s time to go, anything you want to say. ” Jayden spoke gazing over everyone.
“…”
All of them stayed silent for a few seconds then Jia spoke: ” Even though the memories of this place aren’t exactly all good, but there are things that I am gonna miss about this Kingdom, and I’m now leaving my family behind. ”
Everyone could understand how she must be feeling especially Xiao and Lao Rong, then looking into her eyes, Jayden spoke: ” It’s not that we could never come back here, so you would definitely be able to meet your family again. ”
Jia nodded her head and gazed into the distance, towards the graves of her family. After a couple of minutes had passed Alpha was the one who spoke:
” Master, what about this egg? ” Jayden finally remembered about the egg he obtained from the Divine beast, which was now in Alpha’s hands.
” Oh right, let me see it. ” Jayden said and took the egg from Alpha’s hands, and looked at it closely.
The egg was of the size of a football, and completely black in colour, its surface wasn’t plain and was a little rough, Jayden tried to use his senses but he didn’t feel anything strange from it.
‘ Anna, what should I do with it? Do I need to wait for something from inside to hatch out or should I break it and see what’s inside? ‘
While turning it around in his hands, Jayden asked, everyone else seemed interested in this strange egg too.
” If you break it, the divine beast would be dead instantly, and no you don’t have to wait for something to hatch out of this. ” After saying this she paused and just as Jayden was getting impatient she spoke:
” Divine beasts are completely different from any other kind of beasts or demons, until their death they could only have one owner, although they all have different personalities, but they always do whatever their owner orders. ”
Jayden nodded in understanding, it would be better if he had enough knowledge about his future pet so he patiently listened to it all.
” The strength of the divine beasts depends mostly on its owner, aside from that it would also grow strong as it gets old but different Divine beasts have different abilities and needs.
Also, a Divine beast isn’t only connected with your body but also your soul, one of the reasons Divine beasts are considered so terrifying all across the world, is that just after its birth when it gets an owner it will have 20 to 30 per cent of their total strength, though it will also increase with time. ”
Anna said, her knowledge about divine beasts was quite deep but there was also some anger hidden in her voice, Jayden noticed it but he didn’t waste time asking about it after all he knew that she probably wouldn’t tell him anything.
But he guessed that she might have some conflict with those people, instead of that he was more interested in the topic of Divine beasts, as he hastily asked: ‘ So it will be 20 to 30 per cent as strong as me just after its birth? Okay, now tell me what do I need to do. ‘
” Yes it depends on different beasts, but this beast seems quite a special one so I guess it might be thirty per cent, anyway there is a ritual to bind a divine beast to a person, lucky for you I know it like the back of my hand. ”
Anna said, her voice filled with pride, just from her tone Jayden could tell that she must have forcefully taken this technique using her strength, otherwise no one would give out such a special technique away easily.
‘ Do I need any special materials, or is it a long process? ‘
Jayden asked he was getting more and more curious about this Divine beast, after all it had been quite a big headache for Jayden and had almost killed him when it was alive, but because of the restriction and distance from its owner, the divine beast wasn’t able to use its full strength.
Yet, it had so many amazing abilities so Jayden wanted to try all of those abilities, he had even begun to imagine using them in different scenarios.
” No, you won’t need any special powder or stones for the ritual, just a little bit of your blood, a couple of hours and of course the most importantly, me, without whom you wouldn’t be able to succeed. ”
Anna said, and Jayden came back to reality, he nodded his head and decided to do the ritual right here and now, so looking back at all the women he spoke:
” Sorry but we would need to wait a little bit longer before we could go out of here, I am going to bring out the divine beast out of this egg. ”
” Whoa, doesn’t it need to stay inside for some time, and it won’t be dangerous like before, right? ” Xiao spoke, her sparkling eyes looking curiously at the black egg.
” No it won’t be necessary for it to stay inside, there is a ritual after using which it will be able to come out of the egg, also it would be like a new born baby, therefore you don’t need to worry. Just give me a couple of hours, and then we will be leaving. ” Jayden said and all the women nodded, Emma stood beside Jayden and looked at the egg with her big watery eyes.
” Brother, what will come out of it? ” She asked curiously.
” I don’t know, let’s wait and see. ” After saying that, Jayden spoke in his mind:
‘ Okay tell me, how do I start it? ‘
Then Anna began to instruct Jayden about the various steps of the ritual, first, he took out a bowl out of his ring and filled it with his blood, although the blood still had a red colour but it was slightly changing into purple, which was now even more evident.
Then under Anna’s instructions, Jayden created a shape on the ground, it had strange letters in it and consisted of different patterns.
The figure on the ground was around three metres long and of similar width, it took him around twenty minutes to finish the entire thing, and then Jayden took off his upper clothes, since he needed to create strange patterns over his chest, arms and back.
After drawing the strange lines and writing the unknown language on his chest and arms, he took Sophie’s help to do the same on his back, she seemed really good at drawing.
After some time he was finished with all the writing and drawing stuff, then he placed the egg in the centre of the bloody diagram and sat cross legged in front of it.
