Furious Roar (3)

Everything happened in just three seconds. In that brief interval, Ruri froze completely, and something began to form and silently fixate at her core. Alm and Bruno pushed their divine souls to the limit, observing all the changes within Ruri. A new inner rune was created within her—a bloodline rune.

Nearly 95% of the primordial power was consumed for this purpose. It was akin to what the Behemoth had done for them; this bloodline rune would infinitely enhance her ability to wield the Dragon's bloodline. Simultaneously, all the remaining primordial power fused into her bloodline, forever remaining within her.

Ruri shivered from head to toe and then immediately turned towards the whale, leaping into his arms. The whale held her close, and she closed her eyes, falling into a deep slumber. They sighed with relief and strapped her onto their backs, reminiscing about how long it had been since she had been there last.
