Chapitre 58: Succubus

The discovery of his soul becoming anima left Ra incredulous, knowing he just look very stupid he tried to explain to Bast what had just happened, but he only succeeded in confusing her. What's more, he noticed another change as he felt a strong disturbance and explosive magical energy emanating from his spatial pocket. The mana energy was so berserk that spatial rifts began to form. In panic, Ra slashed his arm through the air; opening a spatial gate and a huge white egg fell into his arms. He fought to maintain a stable hold on it as it was shaking violently and a dense magical pressure was forcing him out of the air. Seeing this, surprise filled Xllor's and Basts' eyes, "Ra, what...is that?" they asked in unison, but Ra did not currently have the luxury of answering them, it was taking all he had to keep hold of the egg; and to make matters worse- large cracks began to appear on it's surface. These cracks formed webbed veins as they spread over the egg, and with a loud cracking sound followed by a pop and a shriek, pieces of thick cloud colored shell fell away from the egg and two thin, slimy, leathery necks extended from the new hole. Soon after Ra was able to make out eyes like liquid silver pools and mouths that possessed no teeth. If Ra was stunned at this sight there was no need to mention Xllor or Bast, but Ra was more confused at the appearance of two heads rather than one. "Twin Dragons?" he struggled to close his mouth, and without another thought, opened a spatial gate and sent the egg through it to a location only he knew of. He decided not to answer either of their questions until he had time to properly inspect the two new creatures in his charge, but that did not mean the two would relent, and he was beset with endless questions and pestered to the point of madness until finally he promised to tell them once he knew himself. After which- they shut up, and he was able to enjoy some peace with his thoughts for a short time. After all the commotion they had inevitably attracted a crowd, there were at least a hundred people flocking around them and still more were coming. Apparently they had caused quite a scene and people had been drawn to the impressive phenomenon that had appeared in the sky. A result of Ra achieving the Saint rank and Bast jumping from level 4 to level 7 Immortal Dragonlord. "Oh! Look! there's my sister!" Xllor exclaimed loudly and a surprising smile suffused his features and he seemed to exude a refreshed energy. Ra followed where his finger was pointing and was similarly shocked, coming towards them was a beautiful girl who appeared to be slightly younger than them, She had long flowing black tresses that curled near the end and a thick bang hung over her right eye obscuring her vision. Ra was entranced by the young girls beauty to the point that Bast pinched him, grimacing in pain he shot a look at her rubbing his arm, but she looked away and refused to look at him. However it was nothing compared to Xllor's reaction who fell upon his sister like a storm, hugging and beaming at her all the while like a love sick puppy. "Are you okay? Did you eat? Where are your guards?" and numerous other questions spilled from his mouth in rapid succession. Bast could see the little girl growing annoyed and stepped forward to pull Xllor away, and he did so bawling like a wounded griffon all the while. Releasing an exasperated sigh while fixing her dress her brother had rumpled with his display of affection, "Thank you," she said tartly, "I've no idea why, but he's always been like this; can't stand to have me out of his sight longer than a few minutes." She complained while rolling her eyes. Xllor looked like he'd been shot in the gut, "Little sister, don't say that!" he bawled, "I'm only making sure you're okay!" and he adopted a wounded expression as if he were experiencing considerable distress. She sighed heavily and with pursed lips she said, "Anyway, who are these two?" Ra opened his mouth to speak but before he could Bast cut him off- "It is, I think; proper manners to introduce yourself before asking someone's name," she said sharply, and at this the girl revealed a rare smile which caught Ra off-guard, she didn't seem like the type who smiled easily and it was quite a beautiful one to say the least. Her hand slowly combed through her dark hair, "I suppose you're right," she said kindly, "My name is Xiara, may I know how I might refer to you?" her fingers continued to comb through her hair as that brilliant smile remained affixed to her lips. Ra's eyes glazed over, for reasons unknown to him he felt a strong attraction to this girl.
