7 My True Nature
"I'll gonna show you something."
" What is it Brother Blaive?" Celic asked.
"Just call me Blaive. Just follow me." then Blaive walked deeper to the forest and away from the carriage. The two ladies followed him while filled with questions.
Soon they reached a certain part of the forest and Blaive stopped and also the two ladies.
"I will show you my nature. If you see this and get afraid of me, then I will allow you to leave." Blaive said.
The faces of the two ladies filled with question and also confused.
Blaive's body is now undergoing a change while being enveloped in a green glow. The ladies gaped in astonishment.
His body grows larger. His feet turned to roots, his body into trunks, his arms into branches and his head into leaf bud in the highest position. He grew almost 50 meters high.
The ladies' face is full of shocked as their mouths left opened. Their jaws are hanging like a whole apple can be inserted to their mouth. This turn of event is out of their expectation. They thought what Blaive gonna show them is his true battle prowess or his body full of scars.
"I am actually a tree that can transform into a human. I can devour things and can get into their forms after I digested them." Blaive said.
The ladies' mouth dried and they can't utter a single word.
"When your butler died in the hands of the demon bears, I devour him and digested, granting me a human form. I can change the appearance of the form I want. That is why my face is different from his." Blaive continued.
Another thunder struck their minds. They can't process what is happening and now waiting for Blaive to tell 'Just kidding you guys' but they knew a is serious at the moment.
"Will you still follow me knowing that I am not a human?" Blaive asked with a bit of sadness in his tone.
The ladies looked at each other. Celia and Celic sucked cold air then shout " WE WILL STILL FOLLOW OUR SAVIOR NO MATTER IF HE IS A TREE OR A HUMAN!!"
Blaive was in a state of shock. If others knew who he really is, they despise him and even feared him to death, but these two ladies are different.
Blaive transformed back into his human form for better communication.
"Celic and Celia, is what you said is true or just bluff?" Blaive asked them with full of seriousness.
"Yes, we are!" The ladies answered without hesitation.
"Will you be loyal to me forever?" Blaive continued to ask.
"Yes, we are Master Blaive!" The two ladies bowed and they stared at his eyes full of determination and authenticity.
"Then I will allow you to follow me but remember not to tell my secrets to others. I will show you something."
The ladies concentrated their gazes at Blaive as he will show them something. Then Blaive severed his arm and throw it to the ground and said: "Transform!"
Then the arm grew into another Blaive. It was lifeless then he put his hands into its head.
Then the Clone transformed into a wolf and also acted like a wolf.
"That is your clone, right? So why did it has the manner of a real wolf?" Celic asked. Celia is also confused about what happened.
"That is my cloning skill. I can clone my self by just releasing a DNA out of my body. For your question about why it has the nature of a real wolf. I passed the real will of the wolf I devoured into it and leaving a sliver will of my self. Then to remove its hostility towards us I alter its will and put some memory about us." While Blaive is explaining, he is patting the wolf's head.
"The purpose of my sliver will in this wolf is to command it to grow larger or shrunk."
The ladies eyes gleamed in excitement. This turn of events should be terrifying but for them, it is filled with excitement.
Then Blaive plucked a handful of hairs and throw it in the air. The hair scattered and landed into the ground then Blaive said: "Transform!" Then the hair grows into different types of medicinal plants with different medicinal abilities.
"That is .... Wow! So many different kinds of rare Medicinal plants!" Celic and Celia gaped in astonishment.
"My purpose for this is to let them cultivate for me. I can only absorb Fantasma when in my original form. For these plants, they will absorb Fantasma for me and also to enhance their medicinal properties. I can also concoct pills but, I don't know how." Then Blaive walked out of the medicinal garden and said: "Get back to the carriage and I will devour the horse to enhance its physical abilities and I can also make it breathe Fire if you want."
"A fire breathing horse?" Then Celic and Celia looked at each other and Followed Blaive without a slightest bit of hesitation.
They reached the horse who is tied in a tree and lying beside it. It woke up as it noticed their footstep.
Blaive transformed into a 50-meter long chompo that astonished them.
The chompo's mouth can devour a horse twice the size of the current horse they're using.
Blaive leaned and ate the horse. The murder is not bloody, it was painless kill. There's no blood spilled into the ground nor shriek can be heard.
The Blaive transformed back into his human form within a blink of an eye. Then, he severed his left arm and throw it to the ground. It slowly transformed into a lifeless Blaive. Then he put his palm on its head and it slowly transformed into a well-built muscular horse. Its endurance is twice or even thrice than before and it can breathe fire.
Along with its neigh, flame surged out of its mouth burning nearby grasses. Blaive nod in approvement of the physique of the horse. Again, the two ladies, Celic and Celia, gaped in astonishment.
Blaive looked at the Wolf's eyes and then it headed deeper in the forest. "Where will the wolf go?" Celic asked.
"It will hunt food for us." Blaive answered.
The wolf came back and with a boar on its mouth. Then they seasoned and grilled it in a fire.
"Wooooah! Its been a while since I tasted food this tasty!" Blaive is now happily chomping his share. Even though eating foods like this is not necessary for him because he is actually a tree and eat through photosynthesis, it is still a way to absorb energy.
Then he transformed into a tree after eating. The girls lied inside the carriage that Blaive made. The carriage is now sturdy than before. Blaive absorbed the coins in his pockets long ago. He needed Platinum ore, Gold ore, Silver ore, and Bronze ore to produce a coin. With this, he can store money inside his body and can avoid being robbed.
He made the wolf guard them along with the horse and Fire Spitting Lizard. He gave the ice blast skill to the wolf. It was now around 4 am when the wolf let out a loud howl along with the ladies scream.
"Yaaaaaaah! Stop! Don't come near me!"
"Stop! You dammed bandits! Come and you will die!" Celia and Celic keep screaming to wake or alert the sleeping tree.
"Prepare ladies! We knew that you are the princesses of Sevillion Kingdom. We can get a large sum of money out of you!" The Bandits keep attacking the carriage. Most of them are at bronze III and some are Iron I and II and the strongest is at Iron III and seems to be their leader. They cast skills of different elements. Soon, the carriage shows the sign of collapsing when the wolf, they thought it was a dog, come and bit one of the Bandits.
They gaped in astonishment to see a 20-meter high wolf, but the leader is not afraid of it.
"Don't be afraid, it is only at Bronze level Rank III!" Then they started to attack the wolf. But then a bright green glow suddenly appeared and when the light diminished a man can be seen and it is looking at their direction.
