The Start of a War Part 3

Yuki had no time to spare as she quickly traveled from the Beast Kingdom toward the Moon Rock Forest. Because of the quite long distance, it took her at least 3 hours to travel between two places which was pretty bad considering how little time they have, as every minute that they do nothing could cause them to lose. When she finally arrived, she felt a huge amount of condensed amount of Qi in a certain area, and taking a closer look at it using her "Divine Fox Eyes", she saw that it was actually a barrier, and inside of that Barrier were the Demon Race that she has brought with her. But she ignored them for now and started to fly deeper inside the Moon Rock Forest to find the Ancient Lord Beast to tame it, or at least try to. If she can't manage to train it, she has another plan for it.

As Yuki goes deeper inside the Moon Rock Forest, the lesser the Beast she sees in her surroundings and if she ever finds one, they would be at least on the level of Magic Beast to Star-Lord Beast. But that was not all of the change that she had found, there was also an eerie atmosphere surrounding her, but it didn't make her uncomfortable. The most shocking discovery to her is how thick the Mana was, it was so dense that if a Savage Beast were to mindlessly enter the Moon Rock Forest, it would explode from the inside out.

"So this is the reason why the Beast here is stronger, the amount of Mana here is at least 4x Stronger than outside. So Beasts who managed to survive living here would be a lot stronger. So if a Beast is born here, they would be even stronger…" Yuki said as she glances in every direction with an open eye, she cannot overlook things as she needs to find the Ancient Lord Beast quickly. But there was one problem, and it is that the Ancient Lord Beast was a Hybrid between a Monster and a Beast. It was a Centipede that lived underground making it hard to be found. And that was the weird thing about it because such creatures shouldn't exist because of the two different powers that are inside of their body. But then again, there were such cases when a Beast was born with Human Blood, but they weren't born with any Mana, they have Qi.

And because she was looking for a Centipede who lives underground, she looked at every hole in the ground to see if she could find it. Luckily for her, she actually didn't need to look at every hole because from what she investigated, the Centipede was at least 100 meters Big. So the hole would definitely be big. Just as she was about to look at a hole that was on the side of a Small Mountain, she stopped when she felt an unbelievable pressure coming behind the Mountain. Without wasting any more time, she flew behind the Mountain to only see a bloody scene in front of her, but it was exactly what she was looking for.

The Centipede that Yuki was looking for was in front of her, but if a different person saw the current scene, they might have passed out because of fear. The Centipede was taking on 3 Beasts who had the rank of Ancient Warrior (Middle) all by itself with relative ease, it didn't even look like it was struggling either. The 3 Beasts who were a White Tiger, Demon Snake, and a Lizard were all bloody as they try with all their might to kill the Centipede, but all of their efforts are useless in front of the Centipede as it easily cuts everyone up in a thousand pieces.

"Pretty Powerful, but it looks like my plan will not work because this thing is a Hybrid, if it was a Beast, maybe I could try to tame it. But since I have strong willpower, it would just ignore me. So let's go with my other plan then…" Yuki said as she took something out of her inventory. It was a white egg with streaks of black surrounding the egg.

"I will have to hatch this and feed the Core of this Hybrid Beast to this Egg. No wait… this thing, is it even a Beast?" Yuki questioned as she read its description, but it was a mystery as it was basically a blank paper. And just as she was deciding to ask Serene about it since she was the one who gave it to her when the robotic voice of Fubuki sounded through her mind.

Ding!

[The Egg that the host is currently holding in her hands is a Special One. It Technically is a Beast Egg, but at the same time, it is also not. For a better explanation, the host can treat it as a Hybrid Beast Egg. It is also the reason why the host cannot see its description because it is not yet complete, the host would need to add another Beast Blood, or any part of a Beast so that it can absorb it and combine into one. Once the host has chosen one and combined it with the egg, then it will only hatch.] Fubuki explained in an emotionless robotic voice. The one that spoke this time was the Artificial Intelligence that Ayame has created on her own.

"Ah, I see… Wait, doesn't that mean that the possibilities are endless? How many Beasts can I combine with this Hybrid Beast Egg?" Yuki asked just to be sure, because if she could combine more than one, then things would be not so simple because she would need to research what would be the best Pet to have.

[There is a Limit, the host can only put one more Beast DNA to this Hybrid Beast Egg to combine, the host can also put any DNA to this Egg, it doesn't matter where it came from, Human, Demon, Angel, Monster, every Race is applicable to be mixed with the Egg. Also, the host must be reminded that the Hybrid Beast Egg would not have any Human Form as Katsumi did. he/she would only stay in a Beast Form. But of course, they would still be able to communicate with their Master using Magic, the host can also of course have a Contract with the Hybrid Beast.] Fubuki answered Yuki's question to her dismay, but even if she cannot mix more than one DNA into the Hybrid Beast Egg, it was still more than she could ever ask for.

"I understand… Do you sell Beast Egg in the System Shop, Fubuki?" Yuki asked just to be sure, even though she has the Dragon Queen's Soul Remnant and the Phoenix Queen's Tear, she doesn't want to use them just yet because she may have another use for them in the future. Plus she doesn't want an oversized Beast as a pet, if she would have a choice, she would want a small one, like a Snake. Plus a Snake was one of her favorite Animals.

A Dragon is too problematic as it would be too big, as for a Phoenix, she was not quite sure since she hadn't seen one. But she for sure doesn't want another Dragon, Two Dragon in her Family is already enough, one of them has already caused her endless headaches, and just from that experience, she doesn't want another one.

[Yes, there is. But the System would warn the host about buying a Beast Egg in the System Shop. The Admins have made it to where the Host is only limited to buying one Beast Egg in her lifetime, so the host must be very careful in choosing what kind of Beast she would want to buy in the System to combine with the Hybrid Beast Egg.] Fubuki warned Yuki and opened the System Shop for her.

Yuki's eyes twitched a little as she heard how she was restricted to only buying one Beast Egg in the Shop in her entire lifetime. And thinking about it, she doesn't want to risk buying something she might regret in the future, so she closes the shop with a heavy heart and brings out the Phoenix Queen's Tears, and says with a sigh.

"Such a stupid fucking rule…" Yuki cursed under her breath as she placed the White Hybrid Beast Egg which was at least the size of an adult's fist gently on the ground. She took a second to look at it before placing the Tear beside it and letting it do its thing. At first, nothing seems to happen, but then the Hybrid Beast Egg begins to glow in a bright red color as it begins to absorb the Power of the Tear at a steady pace.

It took a few minutes for it to absorb everything and once it was finally done, the White Egg turned into a Bright Red Egg with Gold streaks all around it. But when Yuki saw that nothing was going on, she realized that it was finally done combining, and she now only needed to feed it with Beast Core. Looking at the Centipede who still hasn't found the presence of Yuki was quietly eating its meal when its whole body started to freeze at an alarming rate. Sadly for him though, he didn't even have the time to react as his body was pierced cleanly by Yuki's Ice Chains, it didn't take a minute before the Ice Chains flew out with the Beast Core in them.

But when Yuki saw the Green Liquid surrounding the Beast Core, she frowned in annoyance as she didn't want to get her hand dirty. So she used her Blood Manipulation and separated the Blood from the Beast Core before she finally touched it and gave it to the Hybrid Beast Egg to which it greedily sucked the Ancient Lord's Mana Core in an instant. Once it was done, Yuki could hear cracking sounds near her, and taking a closer look at the egg, she saw that it already started hatching which made her chuckle a little bit.

"Surprise me little Beast, I wonder what kind of Powers you would have~" Yuki smiled as she watched how the Egg began to shake a little and started showing more cracks before it finally exploded, hatching the little Beast that was inside.
