Chapter 34: Second ascension

Looking at Bones also, I could see that he had now turned into a flaming rat.

His head turned towards me, and I felt his emotions. He felt happy, grateful, and a lot more prideful than he was before.

The little guy was ecstatic to feel the same power and unimaginable strength that had flowed through him previously.

"ROAR!!!!"

It also seems like my flames were beginning to affect the Tiger whale. Frying it from the inside out was what I would have done if I wasn't planning on taming it.

But…..

I couldn't let the opportunity to get such a beast slip out of my hands.

"Stab!!" "Poof!!!"

And it only took a single swing from Bones' flaming rodent claws to split the flesh apart and caused a small fountain of blood to spray out.

"ROARRR!!!"

Although I don't know how the Tiger whale might be feeling right now, but I can guess that it felt as though its stomach was being ripped and toasted apart from the inside.

Kind of how an organism as small as a tapeworm could wreak havoc in a person's belly which was the same situation for the Tiger whale.

If I wanted, I could go about and set ablaze its insides to only bones and scorched flesh, ripping its stomach apart as it drowned in its pain and anguish.

However, this would be enough.

My flames turned off and I saw Bones looking at me briefly before he jumped and climb up on my shoulders.

"Don't worry, now that we know you are at least able to deal a bit of damage, I will find a way to see if you can use the flames without turning them on myself" I said while patting the little rat on the head before bending down to press my thumb against the blood flooding under my feet.

This should be enough!

Pressing it against the option 'Yes' on the book, I drowned the blood on my hand on its pages until the particular option was deeply covered in scarlet red.

Pulling back my hands, I waited with bated breath as I observed to see if it would work.

And soon, I watched as the blood sunk deeper into the pages and abruptly disappeared, followed by the words which were written on the pages before they reappeared again.

History:

Descendants from the bloodline of the 'Blue whales' and 'Tiger back fish', A 'Tiger whale' is only known for two things, their pride, and their survival instinct. Due to their flesh being a delicacy for ascendants; Tiger whales' body parts are sold as expensive ingredients and because of this, their kind has developed an inexplicable hostility toward land dwellers.

Albeit, because of the increasing demand throughout the century, catching a matured Tiger whale is much easier than getting an infant Tiger Whale because they are very protective of their offspring due to their declining species.

And so if one were to ever kill or capture one of their offspring, it is said that they should never step foot into the sea again or risk forfeiting their life. {Edit} ]

Whew!! There wasn't any need for me to worry anymore since the process had worked.

Though it looks like I might have to carry an extra pen with me always.

But that doesn't really matter now since I can store it in the book's 'Temporary space storage'.

Nevertheless, looking at the Tiger whale's attribute page, I couldn't help but let out a whistle as I looked at the beast that I had managed to tame.

Although Mad John didn't tell how many ranks they were for an ascendant and the stages in it, especially that of a magical beast, I had no way of knowing how strong it was or the stages of it.

But if I compared it to that of Bone's attribute sheet, then I had a small grasp of how the power ladder works.

But I still had no idea if it was three ranks above me or two. And comparing it to a common rat gives room for a lot of error, so my guesses were still very much flawed.

Hmmm!! I can already feel the connection between me and the Tiger Whale forming and establishing itself as it connected the two of us.

It didn't even take long before I can feel a connection forming like a bridge between us.

And soon, I felt its undying loyalty toward me.

It was preposterous that a beast who wanted to tear my flesh to pieces some hours ago was now looking for a way to get me out of its stomach as it rained down lines of apologizes that would have made a third-world government salary man begging his boss not to be sacked to pale in comparison.

But, as I had said before, as long as it benefited me, then it was such a thing was for the best.

Now, the only thing left was for me and Bones to scale our way out of here.

"Bones we….."

"ARRRGGGGHHH!!!"

My words were cut short as a resounding internal pain sent a terrifying shock through my spine, dismantling my senses in the process.

Hot!!

It felt extremely hot!!!

It felt like the deep boiling sensation I had experienced when I had first tamed Bones, but much worst.

If before, it felt as though someone had lit a fire inside of me, currently it felt like a boiling loose stream of lava has made its way through every part of my veins and flesh…..

Water!!

I need water!!!

My throat turned hoarse as I could feel the sourcing heat searing apart my lungs, parching them to the point that my insides felt comparable to the fine grains of sand in the Sahara desert.

I grabbed my neck with both of my hands as though trying to squeeze out the last drop of saliva to squelch my scalding taste.

But, the dizziness, tiredness, and high heart rate which felt as though my heart was trying to pound out of my chest, kept my body swinging between the constant state of confusion and drowsiness.

"Squeak!!" "Squeak!!!"

"ROAAARR!!!"

Those sounds must be coming from Bones and the Tiger whale that I had just tamed.

I better find a good name to give the big guy later on.

"W….a….te…r" My voice grew hoarser.

Having no other choice than to channel the magical energy flowing through my body the same way I had done before, I waited, anticipating for my body to ignite, raging like a burning torch to reduce the dehydration I was currently feeling, which was as ironic as it might seem.

But that was the only thing I knew how to do with the mana flowing through me. I had no other choice.

"Drip!!" "Drip!!!"

CREATORS' THOUGHTS
Shink_a

IF YOU ARE THINKING THAT I AM USING THE ATTRIBUTE PAGE TO FILL UP THE WORD COUNT, THEN, YOU THOUGHT WRONG.

APART FROM THE FIRST TIME, I INCLUDE A ATTRIBUTE PAGE, THE REST DOESN'T COUNT AS I COMPLETE THE CHAPTER FIRST BEFORE WRITING THEM IN, EXCEPT IF IT IS A DRASTIC CHANGE, THEN IT HAS TO COUNT.

P.S. THIS ONE DOESN'T.

AND IF YOU THINK I AM LYING, THEN GO AHEAD AND CHECK IT YOURSELF WHEN YOU HAVE THE TIME.

Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
