Chapter 540. [Glass Scaled Lamia Clan]. Ebirah's transformation.

After the Heavenly Tribulation ended, Ebirah stood there a bit confused. "Hm? Isn't it supposed to be a bit more difficult?"

Yasenia and Coraline chuckled. Andrea flashed and appeared floating before the giant lobster's face.

The four meters in height and twelve in length creature rendered our tall and heroic woman looking like a miniature person.

"Hm? Wow! Andrea, have you shrunk yourself? You are so tiny~."

Ebirah's streamlined claw stretched and poked Andrea with the golden tip.

After hearing Ebirah's mature voice that still had that underlining cuteness, Andrea smiled and asked. "How are you feeling, little one?"

"Super nice~."

Ebirah looked behind her and flapped her lengthy tail. "Oh! Andrea, look! I told you my tail would be super beautiful~."

Andrea smiled softly and approached, patting her on the forehead. "En, little Ebirah is the most beautiful lobster in the world."

Ebirah's tail moved up and down with happiness, and the tail fan slapped the ground repeatedly, creating a constant slapping sound.

"Ebirah, now that you are an adult, I would like to give you a big surprise."

"A surprise? Is it another delicious mineral?"

Andrea looked to the side with a smile and mouthed. "Look over there."

Ebirah's vertical eyes spun slightly in confusion, and she turned her head, only to freeze the next moment.

Coraline looked at her frozen daughter and laughed gently.

In less than five seconds, Coraline returned to her giant lobster shape, reaching an absolute thirty meters in height and nearly a hundred in length.

Although the sizes were similar, Coraline appeared much more enormous than Yasenia because a lobster's body was much bulkier than a dragon's agile and lean body.

"Mommy!"

Ebirah's pink crystal-like legs moved quickly as she ran face-first into her mother's welcoming embrace.

Looking at the now proportionately small lobster in the embrace of the larger one was endearing.

Their antennae searched each other as they communicated many feelings and words through them.

Ebirah also spoke aloud because of how static she was. "Mommy, I missed you so much~."

"I know, darling. How have you been?"

Ebirah, feeling super secure between her mother's claws, started to ramble about her adventures.

Nobody interrupted as they listened to the recently matured princess talk about it.

A few things were different from Andrea's perspective, but they were not too much different.

"Ah! Mommy, Mommy, I made a super close friend! Although she was mean at first and scared me a lot, we made a friendship contract after she saved me from bad beasts that wanted to eat me, and we became super close!"

Coraline nodded and asked with a normal tone. "How do you feel? Does it feel uncomfortable?"

Ebirah's pincers clicked with a beautiful metallic sound. "Not at all~. Andrea is always pampering me! Also, also, I can enter her soul and nurture my body… ah."

Ebirah stiffened and looked at Andrea. "A-Andrea, will I telling Mommy about these things put you in any trouble?"

Andrea didn't know whether to laugh or cry. 'Dear Ebirah, you've already spilled everything out. What's the point of asking? Thankfully, we clarified everything before, or it would've been difficult to clean up misunderstandings.'

"Yes, of course. She is your mom, little Ebirah. You can tell her everything without problems."

Coraline was holding her laughter, even in her giant lobster form, you could see the mirth in her eyes.

'Moreover, everyone here is tied with an oath not to say anything, so there are no problems.'

Ebirah. "Really? Then, listen, Mommy."

And thus, Ebirah spilled everything she experienced without filters.

Coraline was patient, caressing her "little" daughter's body with her claws while answering correspondingly with exclamations of surprise, laughter, or praise.

Yasenia crossed her arms and smiled. 'Thankfully, Andrea placed an order back then not to speak about the Transmutation cauldron.'

When Ebirah reached the events of the Distancia Continent, she recounted angrily how people mistreated Andrea and her other friends because they were humans.

Coraline saw her daughter's upset expression and became thoughtful. 'I should give Andrea a non-slave position. She is tied with little Ebirah, after all.'

Coraline, First Queen Lobster, began planning many scenarios for her daughter's happiness while listening to her.

Ebirah asked. "Mommy, how is Daddy and mother-aunts?"

Yasenia blinked. 'Right, if Coraline is the first queen, it should be a harem.'

Coraline said softly. "They are very worried about you. Do you want to return home with Mommy?"

Ebirah was about to nod but stopped and looked at Andrea. "M-mommy, I prefer to stay beside Andrea. Right! Being by her side makes me strong super fast. Look at my bloodline level!"

Ebirah released her aura without any control, and the whole area flooded with her mid-level Divine-Beast Bloodline aura.

Those other lobster kin almost fell to their knees as a powerful royal aura covered them with majestic momentum.

Coraline's eyes flashed with surprise. She had realized that her daughter's bloodline level had increased, but not this much. 'To think that she has caught up with mine… No, isn't her bloodline presence more powerful?'

'It must be because the Astral Sky Clan people fed her precious pills and minerals. Sigh, I owe them quite a bit.'

"My daughter is not only the most beautiful but also super talented~. I love you a ton, baby."

Ebirah laughed happily and hugged her giant mother closely. She was smaller than a pincer, but that didn't stop our lobster princess from latching to her with all her limbs.

Yasenia approached and commented. "Madam Coraline, if you are worried about leaving her with us, you can leave behind a senior as a bodyguard. I don't mind if you order them only to protect Andrea and Ebirah. I don't want to steal one senior from your clan, after all. If any conflicts arise, I promise I won't involve Ebirah in it."

Coraline got thoughtful, but she knew that these were only pretty words.

After all, would Ebirah watch the person dear to Andrea die without reacting? Would other powers think they have nothing to do with the Astral Sky Clan if their princess and one powerful senior stayed in their headquarters?

Coraline said. "Let me think about it."

Yasenia nodded. "Let's make a tour later so that I can show you the quality of our crafts. Moreover, lately, we've had these wonderful lamias join us, who are top experts of the continent in their craft."

Drasha stepped forward. "Queen Coraline, I've heard a lot about your prowess. Your name resonates throughout the Continent, and I'm honored to meet you. I'm Drasha, a rogue alchemist of humble background."

"Hm? Did you just say that your name is Drasha?"

"Oh? Does madam know me?"

Coraline asked. "If your name is Drasha Flutterscale, from the [Glass Scale Lamia] clan, then I do know you."

Drasha nodded. "That's me. I'm flattered to be recognized by one of the strongest creatures of the Continent."

Coraline laughed. "If they are taking part in your clan, then I have nothing to say. I'll leave a senior behind."

Yasenia was surprised. "Wait, [Glass Scale lamia] clan?"

Drasha and Coraline looked at Yasenia's face and realized that she wasn't faking her surprise.

Yasenia thought. 'The eighth most powerful Clan in the Thirty-Three Clans, the [Glass Scale Lamias]. I didn't know my little Angel caught such a great fish.'

Fascia was also around and came behind Yasenia to hug her. "You really didn't know?"

Yasenia's tail reacted on its own and smacked Fascia's face. However, this woman was an Epoch Core Body Realm woman, so only her face moved to the side.

"Oh. Sorry, Fascia. My tail reacted on its own."

"… Don't mind it, ha… ha…"

Yasenia's eyebrow twitched. 'Did I flip a strange switch?'

"Cough. Anyway, no. I didn't know you were from that clan. You said you were rogue cultivators, so I assumed you didn't have a clan."

Drasha smiled. "If you accepted us not knowing that, then it's more than worth it to follow you."

Coraline looked at her daughter and turned back to her human shape.

Ebirah looked at the human-sized woman and approached her face. "Mommy, can I do that too?"

"Yes, dear. I was about to teach you."

The eyes of everyone turned toward them.

"First, calm your mind, love, and imagine your perfect human shape. It won't be exactly as you imagine it, but it will have some resemblance."

"Then, you need to…"

Coraline slowly explained how to move the energy across the body and how to activate the transformation.

Ebirah nodded, and after hearing how to do it three times, she began the process.

With so many seniors present and the help of the energy-gathering function of the formations, Ebirah slowly absorbed the energy and slowly shrank her body.

Andrea saw the giant lobster shrinking and asked. "Love, what do you think she will look like?"

Yasenia looked at Coraline and got thoughtful. Coraline had a slender and elegant body type, with a relatively tall frame for a girl, about Kali's height.

"I don't know. She should have some resemblance with her mom, right? What do you think about it?"

Andrea got thoughtful. "I think she will take more after Angel."

"Oh? Why do you think so?"

Andrea laughed. "Those two are always playing together if they are together, so Ebirah should feel that Angel's body shape is great. Naturally, her mother's body and other female figures I don't know about will affect her decision. Personally, I hope she is cute."

Yasenia hugged her arm and laughed. "Why?"

"Well, being cute will attract less evil from others than having a stunning and seductive body."

Yasenia didn't deny it. After all, being sexy meant arousing sexual tension and desire in those who looked, even if it wasn't her intention.

The process was lengthy, as the first transformation always took a while. However, since it wasn't a maturing plus transforming event like Yasenia's, it was about to end in around three hours.

The giant lobster had already reduced to human size, and the shape was changing to humanoid.

As a beast, all the traits indicating she was a lobster slowly melted away as she gained a pure female form… Or so it should've been.

Of all the females in her life, Ebirah was affected the most by her mother's presence. Coraline had been attentive and spent a lot of time with her.

However, one person no one thought had an impressively profound influence on Ebirah was Yasenia.

Yasenia's bloodline, strength, maturity, way of carrying herself, and how she could confront the world courageously and without showing any weakness against much stronger people made Ebirah's admiration for the dragon woman soar.

She adored Andrea, her friendship with Angel was deep, and her love for her mother was infinite. However, the female idol she looked the most up to was Yasenia.

She has seen how Yasenia created a clan from nothing, attracting influential people to work under her while avoiding traps and not changing faces when deeply wounded.

'I want to be as cute as Angel, as wise as Mom, as caring as Andrea, and as strong as Yasenia.'

Coraline was confused, but she didn't stop her. There was only one chance for all beasts to do this transformation, so if someone interrupted and a deformity occurred, it would be unchangeable.

Finally, after the energy calmed down, Ebirah appeared in her human form.

The woman that appeared was so lovely that many wanted to rush forward to hug her.

Ebirah's glistening pink coral-colored hair reached below her shapely butt, caressing her beautiful thighs.

The body was neither slender nor voluptuous, having a perfect hourglass figure.

Her healthy white skin glistened like marble, and her arms were slender and looked fragile. Her fingertips ended in rosy and beautifully rounded nails.

Her neck was slender, with a perfect head-to-neck ratio. The face was small, with large purplish-pink eyes that blinked and looked around curiously.

Her small mouth with rosy lips and petite nose only increased the cuteness of her face, as her curved eyebrows made her facial expression soft by nature.

What made the lobsters gasp in surprise was that Ebirah was not a complete human but took after Yasenia and grew her slender and charming lobster tail behind her.

The glass-like pink shell shone with an iridescent light as beautiful golden markings covered it. The rounded tail fan at the end charmingly moved left and right with flexibility far above what a normal lobster tail should have.

The naked Ebirah looked around like a child that had just opened her eyes and was cute to the point of leaving everyone speechless.

Author: And with this, Human Ebirah is born~.

Tatyana: Very cute, very huggable, very fluffy, nine out of ten.

Author: Nine?

Tatyana: Only Yasenia is allowed to be a ten. Also, I prefer my super seductive and beautiful daughter who also acts cute from time to time.

Author: I see.

Yasenia: Well, I'm a sucker for cute and sweet girls, so Ebirah just fits my preferences.

The girls: Hm?

Yasenia: What?

Cecile: Do you like her?

Yasenia: *Rolls eyes* Can't I appreciate a sweet cutie without wanting to fuck it?

Cecile: Cough, you are right.

Angel: Where is Ebirah?

Author: With her mom.

Angel: Oh.

Author: Well, let's summon today's dear. I summon you!

Randomplant: Here I am~.

Author: Hello~.

Randomplant: Well, since we are in Ebirah's arc, I wanted to ask one thing to the girls.

Andrea: All of us?

Randomplant: Yes.

Evelyn: I see. Go ahead.

Randomplant: How would you react if Kaleina finds herself in a similar situation to Ebirah?

Yasenia: With a similar situation, do you mean her being bound by a beast contract without our consent?

Randomplant: Yes.

Cecile: That's an interesting question. I honestly haven't thought about it.

Kali: Me neither.

Yasenia: I have, though. Since there is Ebirah, I can't miss the chance of that happening to Kaleina.

Randomplant: What are your thoughts?

Yasenia: Sadly, the beast contract ties both parties at a soul level, so killing the other part is not an option as it would greatly damage the beast's core.

Yasenia: Therefore, I would first try to understand the other person's intentions. If they are good, I would let them develop while leaving a few people to oversee them.

Randomplant: What if they have bad intentions?

Yasenia: Heh, killing them directly is impossible, and cutting the bond is also extremely hard. Hence, I would lock the other person in a cell while asking Mom and Angel to create a Soul Communication Isolating formation to prevent the person from giving Kaleina any orders.

Randomplant: But it doesn't solve the problem, right?

Yasenia: That's why I would torture the human that dared target my daughter, slowly fizzling their soul without touching Kaleina's soul.

Yasenia: The pain created would be inhuman and impossible to adapt to. I would slowly and carefully destroy the soul, savoring every second, until it was weak enough for Kaleina to be able to swallow it and reverse the contract.

Randomplant: …

Yasenia: The best part is that you cannot get accustomed to the pain coming from the soul. You can get accustomed to physical pain because the nerves end up frying with time. However, the soul pain does not go through nerves, so it's always the same intensity.

Randomplant: W-What about the other girls?

Evelyn: Cough, I think that's a good enough response.

Kali: That's… terrifying.

Evelyn: Says the parasite woman.

Kali: Soul pain is more terrifying than parasites, in my opinion.

Evelyn: I don't agree. The thought of little things crawling and eating the insides is terrifying.

Cecile: A very nice plan.

Tatyana: The screams would be delightful to hear, fufufu.

Angel: Mommy Tatyana, your smile is a bit scary.

Andrea: I'll act as if I didn't hear it…

Author: Cough, let's hope there aren't any poor souls with bad intentions toward Yasenia's progeny, or they will suffer horrors that would make my novel banned if I explained them.

Tatyana: Well, this is all for today. Thanks for reading, dears~.

Author: Bye-bye!

The girls: Have a nice day!

Randomplant: See you later.
