21.01% Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos / Chapter 492: Peace

บท 492: Peace

After a four hour climb up nearly 2km of stairs, the expedition finally reached the surface and Vahn got to experience what it was like to move a massive haul of materials via escort through crowded streets. Since it was early in the morning, there were numerous people entering the Dungeon and they all cleared the path and applauded the expeditions return. The main members of the Loki Familia led the way with Finn holding a massive banner and it was quite the sight to behold. Vahn had been tempted to leave after a few parting words by using Fafnir, but he decided not to 'steal' the spotlight from the Loki Familia this time around.

Once the convoy reached Babel Plaza, they came to a temporary stop as it had come time for the other Familia that had accompanied them to part ways. Vahn stood with the group as Finn thanked everyone for their assistance while also expressing interest to work with them in the future. He had even taken the initiative to open the floor to Vahn for a little while, something that had caught him slightly off guard, but he managed to say a few encouraging words to the gathered leaders. Vahn was somewhat fond of the Hephaestus Familia blacksmiths and even promised to do a demonstration for them in the future. It wasn't uncommon for [Master Smiths] to do annual demonstrations for aspiring blacksmiths and many people were interested to see Vahn's actual skill level since he was so young.

After everyone began parting ways, Finn walked over and said, "The girls will be returning to the Twilight Manor to celebrate with the Familia and get their Status Boards updated. It looks like Lefiya had reached her peak, though I'm sure you're more aware of that than anyone, so we'll be celebrating her rise as a Second-Class Adventurer. I'm certain there are things you have to attend to, but I expect I'll see you early tomorrow morning when you come to receive them?" Vahn had already known that the girls would be returning to the Twilight Manor temporarily, as they had talked about it within their tent, so he simply nodded his head before shaking hands with Finn and saying, "I'll be bringing a surprise by, so look forward to it."

Hearing Vahn mention a 'surprise', Finn's expression broke slightly before he smiled widely and returned to the convoy and began leading the way once again. Vahn was left behind with Fenrir, Haruhime, Naaza, Lili, and Mikoto as they watched the departure until they had reached the opposite side of the tower. Vahn then turned to the patiently waiting girls and smiled before saying, "We're going to take a short detour before we return to the Manor, okay?" As the 'voice of reason' within the group, Naaza asked, "Where are we going?" She didn't plan to oppose Vahn at all, but she couldn't help but ask the question that was on everyone's minds.

As if to answer her question, the shadows at their feet expanded greatly as Fafnir popped up out of the ground and 'spooked' several nearby Adventurers and pedestrians. Vahn rubbed its snout before answering, "I have a promise to keep to one of our allies, and I'd like to take care of it before we get busy over the next few days." Vahn still wanted to surprise the girls a bit, so he was being a little roundabout in his explanation. Haruhime, Mikoto, and Fenrir had some idea about what he was talking about, but Naaza and Lili were completely in the dark about the situation since they hadn't accompanied Vahn during the Bloodsaurus hunt.

After mounting Fafnir, Vahn didn't immediately depart the City because he didn't want to make a 'bigger' scene by circumventing the laws that governed every resident. Though it caused a bit of panic amongst the guards, Vahn arrived at the West Gate of Orario before filling out the paperwork for their departure from the City. Things went especially fast because of the 'pressure' people felt from Fafnir's presence. Even though it didn't do anything to actually intimidate them, Fafnir looked inarguably like an 'evil' dragon and its appearance was enough to unnerve weaker people. Most of the guards didn't exceed Levels 2-3, so the pressure from a Level 5 Dragon was a bit much for them.

Vahn explained that he would check back in through the same gate so that they could inform others not to panic when a dragon appeared outside the gate later. Afterward, they mounted Fafnir once again before flying to one of the large structures that dotted the horizon to the northwest of the City. Eden was a 'mystical' looking continent so there were several uncommon structures that couldn't be found on Earth, not that Vahn would know for certain. One of the features was a series of 'pillar' like objects that erupted from the ground at slight angles. The reason people called them pillars was because they were either cylindrical or squarish in shape and the peaks were also flat. As for why you wouldn't see such a thing in other records, it was because many of them were several kilometers tall and there was no way they were formed 'naturally'.

Fafnir landed atop one of the massive pillars that were more than 7km wide before everyone climbed down to the surface. They weren't the first ones to reach the top of one, as some people actually used them as a form of training by climbing to the top, but it was still a spectacle to behold, being able to look out over the nearby City from several kilometers in the air. Vahn eventually wanted to take them all freefalling one day, but there were other things to take care of right now so he pulled out the large monster core from his inventory and began infusing his energy into it.

While he was infusing his energy into the core, which was taking a fair amount of time, Vahn explained, "When we entered the Dungeon to hunt Bloodsaurus, we had come across a sentient Green Dragon..." Vahn had already told them about this in the past, he was just reminding them so they understood the situation a bit better. Once it seemed like everyone recalled this fact, Vahn continued by saying, "I had promised to allow it to see the surface and live a lifestyle free from combat as much as possible. From here onwards, please treat this dragon as one of our companions and look after it so it understands the kindness of others...Fafnir, since you're a dragon as well, I'll be relying on you to look after your sibling, okay?"

Hearing that it would have a new companion, Fafnir roared out with its mouth with a terrible roar as a childish voice resonated in everyone's minds, ("Yay~! Leave it to me, Vahn, I'll take care of them to the best of my ability~!") As if not to be left out, Fenrir pumped her paws in an excited manner and said, "Fenrir will also look after the Green Dragon as the big sister!" Then, as if realizing something, Fenrir tilted her head and asked, "Master, are you going to make the Green Dragon a girl or a boy?"

Vahn had been thinking about that for the last few days as well, but he eventually settled on just naming the Green Dragon without thinking about its gender at all.

He knew monsters could be 'genderless', so he would leave it to the Green Dragon itself to decide what it wanted to become in the future. However, he couldn't help but shake the feeling it would end up as a girl while Fafnir would likely become a boy, as it's childish voice had taken on a more masculine intonation as of late.

Even as a Xenos, which is what Vahn assumed the Green Dragon to be, it had a soft and somewhat womanly voice so Vahn figured that is how it identified itself.

To answer Fenrir's question, Vahn finished infusing his energy into the monster core and said, "I'll leave it up to the Green Dragon to make that decision. I should have consulted you and Fafnir about it bef-" Before Vahn could finish his words, Fenrir's hair stood on end and she said, "Fenrir is super happy to be a girl~! If Fenrir had been a boy, she wouldn't have been able to spend so much time with Master!" Vahn was slightly surprised by Fenrir's outburst but he didn't have much time to address her as a Green Dragon nearly 12m in length appeared after a large cloud of purple dust formed its body.

When it opened its blue eyes, the Green Dragon looked toward the sky and dazed for a moment before a soft voice sounded out in a low growl, "The sky is so beautiful and vast...". Everyone was brought to a temporary silence, as a combination of the sudden appearance of another large dragon and the 'sadness' they could hear in its tone. If the Green Dragon had tear ducts, it might have started crying as a result of seeing the cloudless sky above. Like most Xenos, it longed for the light of the surface and this was the first time it had been able to realize its 'dream'.

After staring at the sky for a short while, the Green Dragon turned its head toward Vahn before leaning forward and nuzzling against him in an affectionate manner as it said, "My Master, you have kept your promise...thank you...". Vahn used his [Hands of Nirvana] and [Petting] to comfort the dragon, something it seemed to be somewhat startled by, as he said, "I've only kept part of my promise so far, and I'm about to make good on the second part. To ensure that others are able to accept your presence, I'm going to bestow upon you a name. You should know that the name I give you can give you great power, or it can change your fate to guarantee you can experience the peace you desire. Depending on your choices, you can even become humanoid and take on the appearance of a man or woman...it's all up to you."

Hearing Vahn's words, the Green Dragon opened its eyes with a slightly contemplative look as it turned to observe Fafnir and Fenrir. It could sense that they were the same as it was, monsters that had come to serve Vahn. It didn't know the name of the dragon, but the Green Dragon felt an instinctive fear towards it and knew it wouldn't be able to fight it at all. Even the small Fenrir had become much stronger since the last time the Green Dragon had seen her, so she knew Vahn's words were true. After coming to a decision, the Green Dragon turned to Vahn and said, "I will accept the fate my Master bestows me...just know that I do not like fighting...though I do desire the power to protect myself and others..."

Vahn smiled before asking, "Do you have a preference about being a boy or a girl...or perhaps you'd like to be genderless? I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to change it in the future, so you'll have to consider the matter seriously." The Green Dragon cocked its head slightly before saying, "I am a female, even in my past life, so I'd like to remain as such. As for my form, it doesn't matter to me that much as long as I'm able to live a peaceful life..." Since the dragon wanted to be a female, Vahn respected its decision and began to form an image in his mind.

There were surprisingly very few records he could find about dragons that protected nature, but that didn't mean there weren't any. As part of an experiment, though it might have been 'rude' to conduct it without permission, Vahn harbored the desire that it would be able to change form in the future. If it truly obtained the ability to do so, Vahn figured he would be able to glean some understanding from the ability and potentially even teach it to Fafnir in the future. Fafnir was still an adolescent dragon, which meant it would still grow much larger in the future. Vahn was worried it might even reach more than 40m and it would be very difficult for it to move above on the surface. It's weak spot also grew in proportion to its size, so Vahn wanted to find a way to help it shrink its body so it would be safer.

Some of the names Vahn had researched came up with results about a peaceful dragon of dreams and nature, named Ysera, a guardian of the mortal plane, Treva, and the more preeminent of the earth dragons, Gaea and Terra. Vahn knew there was a powerful primordial goddess by the name of Gaea, so he was somewhat worried about 'borrowing' the name and inadvertently offending someone. Though he would be borrowing the name from a dragon from a different record, Vahn still had a few concerns about it. As for Treva, it might give the Green Dragon a lot of power, but it might also bind her to a fate of inevitable conflict. The last name on his list was simply a nature spirit named Evergreen, and Vahn was curious what would happen if he wanted her to stay a dragon while giving her the name of a powerful nature spirit...

Eventually deciding it would be best to take into consideration the Green Dragon's desire for a 'peaceful' life, Vahn looked up and asked the dragon itself, "I can name you Evergreen, which would give you power over nature and plant life, or I can name you Terra, which would give you dominion over the earth itself if you become strong enough. Neither would require you to fight, but both names give you great potential..." The Green Dragon blinked its large eyes once before asking, "Can I choose Terra Evergreen as my name? They both seem like good names and I do not wish for either to go to waste..."

Hearing the Green Dragon's question, Vahn found his mind had blanked somewhat before thought began to rapidly bounce around in his head. Out of curiosity, Vahn opened up his system shop and did a search for 'Terra Evergreen' and found several books and items related to entities with that existence. Vahn was somewhat worried that the Green Dragon might end up being named after a person from a different record, one which had nothing to do with dragons, and it seemed like he had good reason to be. Since he didn't want to read through every book, Vahn decided to trust in the nature of his skill since it had even been able to make Fenrir into an adorable girl simply because he wanted the evolution to be 'cute'.

Vahn smiled before nodding his head and saying, "We'll go with that then...from this point onward, you shall be known as Terra Evergreen, Dragon-Avatar of the Earth, and Guardian of Nature..." The instant his words finished, a vortex of energy began to envelop the Green Dragon and Vahn as powerful winds formed atop the surface of the Pillar. Fortunately, the girls were much stronger now and they had the protection of Fafnir's magic to block the turbulent energy. It wasn't nearly as chaotic as Fafnir's and Vahn felt a gentle warmth spreading from the Green Dragon as her form shrank a great deal.

After a bit of time passed, the 12m dragon had shrunken down into a sphere 3m in diameter as roots began growing from the ground and twining around it. The roots began to sprout branches from which rainbow-colored flowers began to bloom from. Vahn could smell an incredibly calming fragrance spread through the air as the turbulent energy immediately came to a stop, replaced instead by a gentle breeze. The entire top of the Pillar erupted with plant life as the cold atmosphere now permeated a spring-like warmth as a sea of flowers was formed throughout the entire 7km radius atop the Pillar. The green energy that had formed into a sphere began to solidify until it looked like a piece of pure green amber with a shadowy figure located in its core.

The energy in the air had completely stabilized and there was a very strange yet comforting sense of 'peace' that had enveloped everyone present. Vahn felt like there would be nothing better in the entire world than simply laying down in the field of flowers and enjoying the sunshine as he counted the clouds or took a long nap. However, he was more interested in the emerald-green amber that had been entwined with 'magical' roots. Though they looked normal at first glance, there were emerald-green lines that grew along the roots that were full of vitality and life. Vahn felt like they would be incredibly valuable materials for alchemy but decided not to concern himself with it as he waited for Terra to emerge from the amber. He instinctually knew she would awaken very soon and turned his attention to the Unit Management to check her status in the meantime...

บท 493: Natural Beauty

After about ten minutes of patiently waiting, during what everyone simply sat around and enjoyed the warm atmosphere, the emerald-green amber began to glow slightly before a crack emerged. Though it had appeared to be one solid object, after the crack appeared, an aromatic fluid began draining from the sphere that began to rapidly dissolve the outer 'shell'. Vahn was tempted to collect a bit of it so he stored some of the running fluid into a vial before stowing it away in his Inventory. It would take a little while for the system to analyze it, but Vahn could sense an incredible amount of vital energy coming from it and assumed it would be useful.

Though they could see the 'person' within long before it had completely drained, it had taken a little while for her to be completely revealed. Contained within the sphere was a mature looking woman with swirling runic formations covering her body in a strange pattern. They glowed with a subtle green glow and Vahn found them reminiscent of the 'veins' that ran along the roots that had surrounded the 'cacoon' she had been contained within. Her most striking features were the leafy-green hair that fell from her head in a free-hanging and elegant manner with slight curls and the small pair of wood-like horns that grew above her temples.

As if to emphasize her existence as a Dragon-Avatar of the Earth and Guardian of Nature, there were actually leaves growing within her hair and incredibly fine scales covering her forearms and legs that were almost indiscernible from her normal skin if not for their gradient coloration. Though Vahn couldn't see it directly, he could see a green tail growing out of her backside that had the same type of scales except they were a much deeper green in color. The most surprising thing of all, however, was the fact that two extra appendages loosely hung from her lower back and it was easy to understand that they were a pair of wings that were distinctly different from any dragon Vahn had ever seen. Instead of leathery skin and scales, the wings actually looked closer to something that a bird would have except that the plumage was predominantly green and the looked more like long leaves instead of normal feathers.

By the time the liquid had drained completely, Terra had fallen to the bottom of the root-like nest and her lower body was concealed by the remnant pool of fluid that remained behind. With the incredible vitality coming from the pool, Vahn likened it to a 'spring of life' and it seemed like Terra was absorbing it into her body as the emerald green liquid slowly turned transparent like water. Before the process had finished completely, she lifted up her body somewhat weakly and revealed her figure that had previously been curled up in a fetal position. Though Vahn would describe her as a mature woman based on her facial features, her breasts were somewhat smaller than his initial speculation. Though they were still a larger B-Cup, Vahn had felt like they should have been larger for some reason but it was still interesting to see that the runes covering her body had left the somewhat plump looking mammary glans unscathed and there were small rosy protrusions marking their center.

Terra eventually opened her eyes and revealed a pair of stark-blue eyes that glowed slightly and had a pair of vertical slits like a dragon. With the bright eyes and bronze skin, framed by the leafy-green hair, she was a strikingly beautiful woman that had a distinctly exotic feeling with her dragon-like qualities. Though he had missed it earlier, her nails were somewhat larger than normal and looked like the petals of a lily as they transitioned from pink to white. They came to scary looking points and Vahn could sense that they carried medicinal properties, which was a little strange since he had somewhat expected it to be closer to a poison. Most notably, however, was the incredible fragrance that was almost intoxicating and seemed to make everyone that smelled it somewhat reminiscent. Even Vahn was briefly reminded of the memory of his mother and it wasn't until Terra began speaking that his awareness returned.

Seeing everyone around her in a very different light, as her own perspective had changed from a giant dragon to a woman around 175cm tall, that was currently sitting on the ground, Terra smiled and said, "I feel like everything about me has changed...it is a very interesting feeling..." As she spoke, Terra was inspecting her own body with interest and noticed that she had taken on several humanoid traits. However, she had a feeling like this was a 'temporary' thing and her instincts told her she could become much larger if she desired. Following this instinct, the runic lines on Terra's body began to release a brilliant light as another sphere of green emerged and expanded in size. Moments later, her form had changed to a dragon that was more than 14m long and had distinctly different features than the previous Green Dragon.

Vahn had been somewhat caught off guard by the sudden transformation as he had been planning to greet Terra and welcome her into the world. He quickly recovered his senses as a wide grin appeared on his face because Terra was indeed able to transform, seemingly at will. Her dragon-form was 14m long and her wingspan looked like it reached close to 20m with massive feathery wings that almost looked like a canopy of leaves. Her body became covered in beautiful green scales that were slightly different in coloration and the small wooden horns on her head had grown into a branching crown around her head.

She was so vibrant and full of life that there was even a layer of moss covering her back and flowers had started to bloom on her body that was exceptionally streamlined and thin compared to Fafnir. As for her eyes, they retained a similar look except for the fact they had increased in size and seemed to possess a great deal of compassion and wisdom. She was a quadripedal dragon that had five claws on each hand with similar lily-like claws and the aroma she emitted had increased in intensity by a fair amount. Everywhere her claws touched the ground, grass would begin to grow thicker and flowers would start to bloom shortly thereafter.

Terra released a pleasant-sound from her long and slender neck that sounded like a soft purr as she said in a similarly gentle voice as her human form, "It seems like I can still become a dragon...this is a very pleasant and familiar feeling, though it seems my body has undergone several changes..." Terra stretched her body and all the scales stood up slightly as they began to vibrate in different directions as they emulated the sounds of nature. It sounded like leaves being rustled by the wind and it actually caused her aroma to spread even further, to the point where Vahn could actually see a visible mist emerging from beneath her scales.

From the side, a childish voice suddenly rang out in everyone's head as Fafnir said, ("So beautiful...little sis is so beautiful~!") Hearing its voice, Terra turned her head to Fafnir and cocked her head to the side before releasing a pleasant-sounding laughter as she said, "It is an interesting thing, to be called 'little sis' by such an adorable sounding dragon..." To clear up any misunderstandings, Vahn commented, "Fafnir is a little over four years old, while Fenrir is slightly over twelve. From what I can tell, you're only seven months old..." Terra shifted her attention back to Vahn by swiveling her head in a gentle arc as she said, "Perhaps, but I had lived more than thirty years in my previous life...though I suppose that doesn't mean much. Very well, I will become the little sister, even though my big brother seems somewhat cute~."

Though Fafnir wasn't actual male, it had referred to itself as the 'little brother' of Fenrir and Tina in the past, so it wasn't incorrect for Terra to call it as such. Fafnir seemed to be very pleased as it stamped its feet up and down, but Fenrir seemed to want to clarify something as she stepped forward and raised her paw before saying, "Terra, I'm Fenrir, you can call me Big Sis~! Let's look after Master properly from now on, okay!?" Terra traced her gazed over to Fenrir and looked down at the small girl that made her feel an incredible sense of danger previously. Even after her body had undergone such a drastic change, Terra still felt intimidated by the small girl so she nodded her head and said, "Very well, Big Sis...it's good to have two dependable older siblings to watch over me..."

Fenrir smiled and patted her chest proudly as she said, "That's right, Fenrir will protect you from now on! As long as you are a good girl, Fenrir will always be nice to her siblings!" Terra seemed to want to ask what it meant to be a 'good girl' but decided to leave such questions for later as it felt like her energy was draining rather quickly. Though she didn't feel any discomfort in her dragon form, as it was closer to what she was used to, Terra realized the energy consumption was much greater than normal and she felt somewhat 'empty' at the moment. It wasn't an incorrect feeling either, as her transformation from the Green Dragon into her current form had actually consumed a massive amount of her energy while the rest had 'escaped' into the ground below to nourish the plants around her.

As she was feeling tired, Terra emitted the same green light for the third time as her body rapidly shrank and returned to her 'human' form once again. This time, however, she was standing on her own two feet without any feeling of shame or discomfort. Vahn could now see that runes extended all the way down her legs but seemed to leave her abdomen untouched while there was a strange pattern around her groin that looked like a laurel leaf pattern. She didn't have any pubic hair to speak of, and her lower body seemed surprisingly muscular with slightly wider hips than normal. Vahn wanted to see the rest of her body so, after a small hesitation, he asked, "Terra, do you mind turning around so I can look at your wings and tail?"

Hearing Vahn mention her wings and tail, Terra spread them out and they reach nearly 4m wide, more than twice her height at 175cm. She then whipped her tail as if testing its feel before commenting, "It feels very strange to have wings and a tail in this form...it's like all my weight is centered around my lower body?" as she turned around to let Vahn get a better view. Even though he earned some strange looks from the girls, Vahn couldn't help but swallow slightly when he saw the somewhat muscular and plump butt of Terra. She had a light layer of scales covering the outside of her legs, but her butt itself was entirely untouched and was slightly paler than the rest of her body.

As for her wings and tail, Vahn was somewhat shocked to see how muscular her back was and how developed her lower-back and abdominal muscles were. Instead of growing from the shoulders, Terra's wings had supporting bones and musculature located underneath her ribs. With his [Eyes of Truth], Vahn could see that she had nearly three times the amount of muscle groups in her torso and it was obvious she could exercise a lot of power from her lower body and wings. Her tail itself stuck out from her back slightly instead of following a natural curve and she had a line of scales that covered her lower back and continued up her spine.

Vahn thought it was a very interesting sight that only enhanced her exotic beauty, and he was somewhat interested in the structure of her body in general. Unlike the bones of birds, which were somewhat light and hollow, Terra actually had a lot of segmented bones that likely made her body incredibly flexible and the energy in her body, though Vahn could see it was diminishing, was full of vitality and what he could only describe as 'life elemental energy'. Walking forward, Vahn asked, "Can you spread your wings again?" before carefully watching how the muscles stretched out as she extended her wings. Vahn had a slight urge to pluck one of Terra's feathers but decided against it since he didn't want to give her any bad memories so soon after she obtained a new form.

Since it would be 'bad' to let Terra continue walking around in the buff, Vahn looked through his shop and purchased a green robe-like dress for her to wear. Since he had purchased it with her in mind, it actually had various layers of fabric that draped over her wings comfortably with clasps and belts that secured around her tail. Vahn was always amazed how the system could adapt the items for use by other races and it was exceptionally useful for times like this. Handing the robe to Terra, Vahn explained, "Since you can take on a human form, you should stay like this and try to get used to it as much as possible. There are various girls located at the Hearth Manor, which will become your new homes, and they will teach you how to behave like a woman and what to take into consideration when you associate with others."

Terra received the robe from Vahn and inspected it with curiosity before a vibrant smile appeared on her face and she said, "This is the first gift I received from Master, I will cherish it always..." Having a beautiful girl say such words to him, Vahn felt a bit of pressure rise in his nose as he looked to Naaza and Haruhime before saying, "Please help Terra get dressed...and make sure not to teach her anything strange, okay?" Unless she died, Terra would be accompanying Vahn for a very long time and he had some expectation that she would eventually grow closer to him. For now, however, Vahn wanted her to just focus on adapting to a normal lifestyle and receive an education before things like that became an issue. Though she had lived for more than thirty years in her previous life, Terra was inarguably the youngest girl Vahn associated with, and he even planned to take her into the orb in the future so she can 'mature' a bit and study magic with Eva. She seemed like a very intelligent girl so Vahn had high hopes for her future, especially since it seemed like she would become a powerful guardian that could watch over the Manor, or potentially even 'Haven', in the future.

After the girls finally figured out the 'mechanics' behind the robe, Terra was now clothed and Vahn couldn't help but nod his head as he gave her an appreciative look and said, "That kind of clothing suits you, though I'll leave it to you to decide the type you like to wear in the future. I may not look like it, but I'm actually a capable [Master Smith] that also specializes in making clothing. When the time comes, I'll make you a personal outfit that can bond with your soul so you can wear it between your transformations. In the societies on the surface, it is 'inappropriate' to be walking around naked in your human form, so please keep that in mind."

Though Terra felt somewhat uncomfortable in the new clothes, she simply smiled in response to Vahn and said, "Yes, Master, I understand..." as she stretched her wings in an attempt to adapt to her new body. Vahn understood a few her concerns and walked forward before placing his hand atop her head and infusing energy into her body. Terra's eyes opened slightly before she closed them with a pleased expression on her face. Vahn took this time to inspect around her temples a bit because he was somewhat curious about the 'wood' horns that were coming out of her head. He could see they were attached to her skull but there were 'veins' running through them that actually connected to the patterns on the rest of her body.

With his [Eyes of Truth], Vahn could tell that Terra had two different types of energy in her body that intermixed with her normal source energy. It was difficult to tell what they were, but Vahn defined them by his feelings and labeled them as 'Life Energy' and 'Nature Energy'. The largest flow was that of the Life Energy, as it was the basic structure of her body that was fueled by her source energy, which pooled near her heart instead of her navel, similar to Fafnir. As for the Nature Energy, it was contained in the runes and the subdermal 'veins' that covered her entire body. Even in her human form, as she was currently barefoot, the grass was constantly growing underneath Terra's feet and it was very obvious it was an effect of her Innates.

One thing Vahn was curious about was her [Healing Sap] ability, as it was the only thing he couldn't make sense of at the moment. He assumed it had something to do with the plants she grew, which would be very beneficial if they could cultivate it, but he decided to ask since she should know the answer 'instinctually'. In her new form, Terra could consume a ridiculous amount of energy now so it was taking a while for Vahn to replenish her reserves. He even had to ingest a few mana recovery potions in the process. When he was nearly finished, Vahn asked in a casual manner, "You have a unique ability called [Healing Sap], and I was curious about how it's produced. Can you tell me?"

Terra opened her eyes and didn't seem to mind the question at all as she smiled slightly and said, "I've never used it before, but I believe my body naturally produces it and stores it in an organ located in my lower body. I can try excreting some if you'd like."

Though she had a specialized stomach, Terra was more plant-based than truly human and she didn't have the common digestive organs at all. Instead, Vahn traced her metabolic processes and could describe them as a 'filter' that compressed the ingested nutrients as it was converted by her body into a pool of purified Life Energy...located near her butt. Her organs were fundamentally different than a person's and it looked like, rather than actual excrement, the supposed 'honey-like' liquid was 'secreted' from Terra's butt...
