Listen

"Greetings..." I said, don't know why.

Anzû got scared even more when he heard my voice. I don't think it is because of my new skill or innate ability. The reason should be that it witnessed me getting the Firstborn bloodline; it is afraid of me more as a more inferior being.

"What should I do with it?" I voiced out my question, not expecting to hear an answer.

I don't think I can tame it right now, I do not have a skill like that... Wait, maybe it is possible... My finger pressed a black sun icon and my consciousness transported into a Lifespan Shop.

"Welcome, Young Master. I can perceive some changes in you," greeted me an ancient shopkeeper.

"You are right... Can I operate the shop?"

"Of course, I am delighted to observe you getting worthy of her Omnipotence the Death!"

"Thanks."

Your current Lifespan: 166

"Show me skills, skill books or scrolls."

A countless amount of starlight gathered around me in alternative forms, I was delighted, everything works as I want it to. I determined the cheapest one, so as to understand the quality of items in the Death treasury.

My lips curled into a pleasant smile, with this skill I will be capable of taming Anzû and make it a guardian beast of the Fura Village. This one beast will be enough to safeguard it from the first wave of Invasion, with my created lifeforms the village will uncrashable.

"I will buy Beast Taming Wilderness Technique," I said with confidence.

"Good..."

Then next moment I have experienced the similar pain I felt the first time, however this time it was considerably greater, the price I paid for this skill was greater, obviously, the pain should also be worse. However, it cannot be compared with the pain of acquiring the Firstborn bloodline; my smile didn't disappear and my eyes stayed open.

The pain faded away and I breathe frosty humid air. The beast didn't move at all, I wonder if time spent in Lifespan Shop doesn't reflect the reality.

I quickly screened through my memory and the beast taming technique. When I was certain that I grasped all the basics, I got from the book, my hand moved forward towards the magic beat and my intimidating voice sounded all over the cave, "Слушай."

As I understand, the language used for this skill is from another world full of beasts; it contains some similarities with the Ancient Dragon Alphabet.

Anzû lowered his head, golden chain formed around its neck and connected me to its consciousness.

Creature: Anzû Name: None Age: 124

Status: Tamed (Alexander Light)

LVL: 99 MP: 320 237/320 237 HP: 235 780/235 780 ATK: 13 452 DEF: 15 630

Therefore, it is not a transcendent creature, maybe in ten years, it can become one. Even now, with its current power it will be sufficient to defend the village, this Blood Evolution Formation is useless for the time being, during the Invasion nobody will be able to activate it, one of my objectives achieved.

What is about the skills, they must also be unusually strong.

Skills/Abilities/Spells:

(Medium Flight) High-Level 8, (Fire-Water Breath) Mid-Level 9, (Lion's Roar) Mid-Level 6, (Accelerated Regeneration) High-Level 1, (Fire Feather Armor) Mid-Level 10, (SkillShare) Low-Level 1

Interesting indeed, as far as I can remember there was one more skill, but it doesn't really matter now. With its current power, it is a good tank, who can take damage for me, at the same time it possesses a huge damage potential, especially with the combination of (Medium Flight) and (Fire-Water Breath).

I came closer to Anzû; it doesn't have a name, so I should create one... Maybe Simba? No, what about Zu? Definitely, Zu is a better one... My hand touched its forehead, and I murmured a spell in the same ancient language as before, "Имя - Зу."

The very next moment I felt our connection to become much more intimate than before. I could feel its deep hidden emotions, there was fear, fear in front of me... It seems ridiculous, my level is so inferior compared to its own, but because of my bloodline, my existence overwhelmed him.

I think my business is finished with it...

"Listen... You must stay here and keep protecting the formation; I will come to visit you and tell what to do next," I ordered Zu and stroked his head.

For some reason, it cannot communicate with me like Feefee, although I don't know why Feefee is able to... Wait, I think I can teach Zu how to speak and after that, yes... I will do it, but later.

Its fear disappeared a little and I was reassured that my taming technique was successful. My following objective is to go fetch Feefee and go have some rest, however, I cannot feel any fatigue because of my newly acquired power but still... After two hours, Feefee and I climbed up to my bedroom, and I fell on my bed. I was however full of energy and don't know what I should do with it.

"Master, Feefee wants to ask you one thing?"

"Sure Feefee, what is it?"

"When you came back to Elder, Feefee noticed that your hair color and eyes became different."

My heart trembled a little, can there be any changes to my appearance? If so, then it is an urgent problem, I don't have any shapeshifting items or skills... That moment I remembered the item I saw in the Lifespan Shop. I became anxious, there was no mirror to examine my face, but I can use Feefee with my skill...

"Feefee, let me see myself from your perspective," I said and my vision shifted.

I looked at myself from the side and was shocked... It is the end; I don't know how to explain it, what should I do? My hair altered color to white, pure white; the same thing happened with my eyes... Change in my bloodline is absolutely something out of this world... I have heard legends that white color is considered a blessed one, the divine, it holds everything and nothing in itself. In the magic academy, we were taught that light has a wavelength, that it can be represented as a wave and particle, in order to achieve a white color, all other wavelengths must be combined into one... What am I explaining right now, I should come up with an explanation for my appearance!?
