Capítulo 4: Chapter 4 : Primordial Dragon Template
[The Template is unlocked randomly. If you wish, you can open the Lucky Chest now.]
"Oh? Then I'll do it," Daniel said, his tone unchanged, expecting that obtaining a Template wouldn't be easy.
[Would the Host like to open the Lucky Chest?]
"Yes." Daniel clicked on the Yes option.
[Confirmed.]
[Opening the Lucky Chest…]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Primordial Dragon Template.]
[Rank: Godly.]
[Would you like to awaken it?]
Once again, two options appeared before Daniel. However, this time he didn't click without hesitation and instead decided to check the information on the Template.
"I see, this is really…" He couldn't find the words to describe this Template.
The abilities and physical, spiritual, and mental powers it offered were beyond anything he had imagined.
He finally clicked the Yes option.
[Awakening process initiated.]
[Fusion starting…]
[1%…25%…67%…99%…100%…]
[Fusion complete.]
As soon as the voice echoed in his head, the surroundings began to tremble violently.
The clear sky turned black, and dark storm clouds covered it entirely.
The ground—no, the entire continent—began to quake.
Daniel's body suddenly started swelling as if it were a balloon being inflated.
His veins turned golden, and his irises and pupils became completely black, resembling an endless void.
Lightning tore through the sky, and the thunderclaps were so loud it felt like the heavens had split apart.
A blinding white light radiated from his eyes, instantly evaporating the entire hot spring.
The process took about ten minutes before it finally concluded.
[Awakening successfully completed. Congratulations on obtaining the Primordial Dragon Template.]

[Status: Requires Chaos Energy to awaken.]
Daniel ignored the notifications and stood up, examining his body carefully. His physical form had undergone significant changes.
He had grown taller, his skin looked flawless, his hair had become jet black, and the symmetry of his muscles had drastically improved.
Even more bizarre was the immense physical and spiritual power coursing through his veins. His mind also felt sharper and clearer than ever before.
His veins, once turquoise, now gleamed golden.
"…"
Then he glanced at the notifications and frowned. All the abilities he had gained were unusable.
"Are you kidding me? How am I supposed to unlock these abilities? And where am I even supposed to get this Chaos Energy?"
[Host, your current body is incapable of containing the power of the Primordial Bloodline. You will need the Primordial Bloodline to unlock the Heart of Chaos. Additionally, unlocking the Eyes of the Origin requires awakening the Core of Chaos.]
"…"
"You've got to be kidding me."
[The system does not joke.]
"How do I even find Chaos Energy to awaken the Core of Chaos? What is Chaos Energy anyway?" Daniel, despite his vast knowledge, had no clue what Chaos Energy was.
[Chaos Energy is a special energy present in Corrupted Beasts. By slaying them, the system will assist you in absorbing their Chaos Energy.]
"Killing Corrupted Beasts?" Daniel frowned. Normally, an ordinary human wouldn't stand a chance against a Corrupted Beast, even one of the weakest kinds.
But he no longer considered himself ordinary—or at least he hoped not.
Besides, with the power he felt in his veins, this task didn't seem impossible.
Still, the presence of Chaos Energy in Corrupted Beasts raised several questions in his mind. Neither he nor humanity had ever had any idea such energy even existed.
Until he could interact with Chaos Energy himself, he wouldn't be able to fully understand it or answer his questions.
"What exactly is the Core of Chaos?"
[It is similar to the spiritual core of humans, but the Core of Chaos belongs to Divine Beasts. Essentially, it is their source of power.]
"Divine Beasts and not Corrupted Beasts? Then how does this energy exist in Corrupted Beasts?" Daniel frowned deeply.
Naturally, he was familiar with Divine Beasts—creatures like dragons, golden tigers, phoenixes, celestial lions, heavenly serpents, and more.
These were the apex predators and the noblest bloodlines among all beasts.
[Access to this information is unavailable.]
"…"
"Forget it," Daniel sighed. Naturally, he would figure it out sooner or later. As long as this system was his ally, everything would be fine.
"Oh, right, I almost forgot about the phenomenon," Daniel muttered, glancing around and scratching his head.
His mother and caretaker probably noticed, didn't they?
[Host, there's no need to worry. The system has concealed all causality, and no one will suspect that this phenomenon is related to you.]
Daniel let out a breath of relief. For now, he had no plans to reveal his power. While he disliked pretending to be weak, it was a necessity until the day of reckoning arrived.
He returned to his room, changed clothes, and then headed to the manor's dining hall, where his mother and caretaker were waiting.
"Oh-ho, you're finally here? I've missed you so much, my darling boy." The moment he entered the dining hall, a figure hugged him tightly.
"Ugh, Mom, I'm gonna suffocate!" Daniel groaned. Even after fourteen years, he still hadn't gotten used to this daily ordeal.
He had fought in countless battles and emerged victorious, but unfortunately, he had never won against the overwhelming force of his mother's "two mountains."
"Oh-ho, what am I supposed to do? It's not my fault I love my son so much," Philendra teased, clearly enjoying how flustered her son was, showing no intention of letting go.
Daniel had no choice but to endure for a few minutes until his mother finally released him.
"Hoof… Hoof…" He panted, catching his breath.
"Is it just me, or did you get taller?" Philendra squinted at her son. Just yesterday, he had been shorter than her, and now he was taller.
Daniel glanced at his mother. She was a woman with long black hair, golden eyes, and flawless, fair skin. Her voluptuous figure and seductive curves could captivate any man, while her long legs and shapely hips were equally mesmerizing.
"Mom, you're imagining things. I'm the same as always," Daniel said, lying with pride.
"Augustus, doesn't he seem taller to you as well?" Philendra wasn't convinced.
"Yes, my lady. He appears much taller than he was yesterday. His hair looks darker, and his physique seems more muscular as well," Augustus said.
"…" As expected from the old caretaker, Daniel thought. Even knowing his true background, he hadn't expected Augustus to be so perceptive.
"You didn't do anything dangerous, did you?" Philendra's eyes turned threatening, worried her son had done something reckless due to the humiliation he had faced.
Daniel sighed. He had never expected to hide the changes in his body successfully; it was practically impossible.
