A New Companion
[Ace POV],
Even though I was fairly stuck in the current events, I knew that the real deal had started when I noticed the crack that was gradually widening on the glowing egg in front of me.
I became even more serious as I continued to coat the cracking egg with my mana, trying to avoid mistakes at the last minute because the egg was in its crucial hatching process.
I observed as a portion of the egg suddenly burst open and blue magma erupted from it as the crack on the egg widened and the sound that accompanied it grew louder.
Since the egg was close to the edge of the table and my hands were still on the egg when I first saw this, I instinctually transformed the ground beneath my foot to create a hole so the magma could pour in and then directed the section of the egg that burst open to pour the magma content into the hole below.
