Chapter 18: Elementalisation

Looking at this Booth Dragon Beast, a flash of bewilderment surfaced on Veit's face.

“When you fainted earlier, I brought you back, and after a brief examination, I found that you fainted due to dehydration, so I went and got you this dragon beast.

Your body is in dire need of a large amount of food, and this might have something to do with your overbearing dragon blood.

It will give you an extremely strong physical body, but it needs a lot of energy, your meal size should be a lot bigger than the young dragons that came out from the same batch, right?

That's why, and, you'll get hungry very quickly.

Especially after strenuous activities, it's best to replenish your food as soon as possible so that you don't pass out like you just did.

That's something you need to talk to Winters about!

Or, do you need my help?”

Hearing this, Veit shook his head.

“No thanks, I'll talk to Winters, but ......”

Saying that, Veit looked towards the Booth Dragon Beast.

“Can you help me get cooked?”

“Sure, but are you sure? Cooked food tastes terrible!”

Veit nodded.

“I like eating cooked food!”

Upon hearing this, Bocco nodded, and then a green element, surging out from his body, lifted the Booth Dragon Beast up, and then he floated towards the stone platform.

Veit curiously followed.

However, he saw Bocco take out a huge crystal container and place it on the stone platform, then he began to skin, gut and clean it, and finally put it into that crystal container.

And all those things that were cleaned off were placed in a pit in the corner of the stone platform.

Veit only saw a flash of light and all those things disappeared.

“Boco!”

Veit froze.

“What?”

“You can call me Boco, or you can just call me Sensei, and in a little while, when your magic is on track, I'll teach you to make potions!

By the way, I'm not a ghost dragon, but a wind elemental dragon!”

Hearing this, Veit couldn't help but freeze for a moment.

“There really are ghost dragons?”

Bocco nodded and added with a smile, “But it's a bit different from what you'd expect, Ghost Dragons have physical bodies, and the only ones that don't have physical bodies are Elemental Class Gargoyles.

In terms of appearance, the Ghost Dragon is actually closer to the Dark Demon Dragon, which is also a Fae Dragon, and in terms of bloodline, it's closer to the Black Dragon of the Five Color Dragons.

I know that you don't have normal inheritance memories, even if I say more, it's still not as good as actually understanding it yourself.

You should have learned about spitting today!”

Seeing Viktor nodding, Bocco continued, “Then you should be resting tomorrow, so you can let Winters take you to the library on the eighth floor to have a look around.

You shouldn't have come out tonight, young dragons, especially those just born like you, adequate sleep is a guarantee of growing up as quickly as possible!

Under normal circumstances, if you guys eat well during the day and sleep well at night, within two years, your body length will grow rapidly from the current one meter or so, to five meters!

In this way, you will, at the very least, be closer in size to those young dragons that were born earlier than you, as the maximum size of young dragons is only about ten meters.

In this way, you will be able to gain the right to move freely in the Dragon Academy.

Because if your size is too small, you could be injured by other young dragons at any time.

If you miss those two years, you will always be a few sizes smaller than the dragons born in the same batch.

Also, as Winters should have told you, don't leave the Dragon's Den alone!”

Veit moved his tail a little uneasily.

“That, it's nighttime, there's no other young dragons out there, I just want to go look at the stars, and I'm not planning on spending the night out there, uh ...... I just can't sleep for a while!”

At those words, Bocco froze for a moment, then looked Vettel up and down.

“Your spirit power is indeed much more active than normal, newly born young dragons, this may be a problem in your bloodline that can give ......”

Looking at Veit who once again clutched his tail and bared his teeth in a low growl.

Bocco stopped talking resentfully.

“Well, relax, I'm just an offer, forget it if you don't want to, by the way, this is for you!”

Said Bocco as he placed a small jar of milky white liquid in front of Veit's body.

“This is the juice from the kneaded Domia flower, it can effectively promote sleep, although the inability to sleep may be related to your bloodline, but not sleeping or sleeping less is definitely not an option.

As a matter of fact, it would be a bit more effective if it were a sleeping potion, but, having just been born, you'd be better off with the original liquid of the Domia flower.”

But a small jar was for Boco.

For Veit, this so-called small jar was a little bit bigger than the crystal jar on the stone shelf over there, containing that silver dragon.

Seeing Veit looking at himself with a strange look, Bocco then reacted.

“Well, it is indeed a bit too big for you, so it looks like I'll just have to be the one to go to you every day!”

Saying that, Bocco put away the jar containing the juice of the Domia flower.

“Isn't there a smaller container? You just said it, we're going to take your potions class in the future, could it be, that all the equipment we use are this big?”

“Of course not!”

Bocco shook his head.

“But, even the smallest container is still a bit too big for you, and like I just said, the two years just after birth are the time period when your bodies grow the fastest.

So, when your physical growth has leveled off, which is two years later, your potions class will begin!”

Veit couldn't help but swallow his saliva as he looked at the gradually boiling, jar holding the Booth Dragon Beast's meat.

“Two years? Wouldn't that be a long time?”

Bocco manipulated the wind element and stirred the meat in the jar.

“Two years is a long time?

But speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've had a good night's sleep, so when Karen returns, I'll be sure to sleep for a couple decades!”

After a pause, Bocco continued, “Don't be in a hurry, your dragon life has just begun, time is of the least value to the giant dragon species!”

Veit was noncommittal, his eyes looking again, at the bottom of the jar, at the strange pattern that was emitting a red shimmering light.

“Who is Karen? Also, what is this?”

“Karen is another teacher who knows about potions, she went outside to look for ingredients to make potions, it might take decades before she can come back.

It would be a lot easier for me if she was there!

As for this, this is a constant temperature array, it can provide a constant temperature, you can't refine potions without it.”

Veit's gaze turned back to the pit where Bocco had discarded the waste material earlier.

“Is there a magic formation inside as well?”

“That's the Annihilation Formation, you'd better not go near it, if you go in there and accidentally inject an element into it, then, your dragon life will be over, not a single dragon scale will be left behind!”

Veit took a deep breath.

“So dangerous?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, Veit noticed that Bocco's eyes contained a smirk.

“You're kidding!”

“Scared!

As a matter of fact, if the magic formations here were really that dangerous, I wouldn't have let you stand on a shattering formation, which incidentally, I used to shatter untold amounts of magical materials!”

Veit ran away in a hurry, even though Bocco had already said that the magic formation wasn't dangerous, his heart was still scared just by imagining that he was standing on something so dangerous under his feet.

“Now what?”

“That's a thermostat formation too!”

“......”

After half a day's work, Veit finally found a location without a formation.

Looking at Bocco's narrowed smiling eyes, Veit resentfully turned his head to the jar.

“It's not cooked yet?”

“It still needs a bit of time, if you don't mind chucking it raw, you can eat it now as well, in fact, I would even recommend eating it raw, it tastes superb that way!”

Veit hurriedly shook his head, then looked Boco up and down.

The entire body was made up of greenish-colored wind elements, both feet landed on the ground but the whole thing was floating, the forelimbs were short, the wingspan was more than twice the length of the body, and the dragon's tail was thin and long!

Such a body ......

“You keep emphasizing on taste, so you need to eat too?”

Hearing this, Bocco grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, and then he suddenly solidified in front of Veit's stunned gaze.

The general image didn't change, still with green scales, but with the presence of flesh.

“In fact, this is what the Elemental Dragon itself looks like.”

“Then just now ......”

“This is the unique ability of the Elemental Dragon, Elementalization!”

Saying that, Bocco's body once again became transparent as he continued, “I just felt that it was easier to move around this way, so I kept my elementalized state.”

After a pause, Bocco's gaze turned to the jar on the thermostat array.

“It's cooked, but it needs some of this!”

Saying that, Bocco took out the juice of the Domia flower that he had put back earlier, and after glancing at Veit, he added in just a single drop.

“Don't worry about eating it, I'll send you back later!”

Veit turned his head to look at the silver dragon on the stone shelf in the distance, placed in a crystal jar, and then looked at Bocco!
