บท 398: Chapter 398. "I'm back, dears." [End of Volume Seven]

During the last twenty minutes, they saw Yasenia's body growing at much faster speeds.

The speed was so fast that her scales couldn't keep up with her growth and began falling off to give way to new, bigger, and more lustrous ones.

Moreover, her horns also fell once, and new and more charming horns grew extremely fast.

Even when their aesthetics were not trained to differentiate the beauty of a beast, one had to be blind to realize that Yasenia gave a much more alluring aura than before.

The curves of her body had softened, her body had become less bulky and more streamlined, her facial features had gained a more charming feel, and her eyes were human-like, expressive, and able to tell stories with just a single look.

The golden parts gave a dim sheen. The characteristic glow of her starry blue scales was also more accentuated without being too eye-catching.

Not to mention, Yasenia's height was nearing twenty meters—similar to a seven-story building.

Considering the charming long tail, her length reached almost eighty meters. In modern terms, it was longer than a commercial airplane.

The wingspan wasn't any less than her length, making her extraordinarily imposing and beautiful.

When they looked at the now giant Moon and Sun in her wings, they couldn't help but sigh in amazement. 'Such a beautiful creature. Just looking at her is enough to spend an entire afternoon.'

Tatyana looked at those scales and four-meter-long horns on the ground and said. "Andrea, keep them safe. You will be able to create a semi-transcendent level scale armor and weapons with them if you use them now. Of course, if you break through your Blacksmithing skills, your chance to create your first Transcendence level item will be right around the corner."

Andrea and the others were stunned.

Tatyana looked at them and smirked. "We are quite fortunate. Yasenia's scales and horns are probably the best material to create robes, weapons, and armor in the Distancia Continent. With many of them, creating a dress for each of us is not impossible."

The girls were at first ecstatic. However, they soon frowned and looked at Yasenia. Andrea asked, "Do you not mind, my love? I won't do so if you feel uncomfortable having your body parts turned into items."

Yasenia couldn't speak or communicate spiritually because of her exhaustion, but she still gave a reassuring gaze. Her eyes seemed to tell Andrea she could take them at will and use them as she pleased.

They felt a little touched. They knew that Yasenia pampered them, but they could only feel warm and fuzzy inside each time she did so.

How could Yasenia not agree to allow them to use her body parts to create powerful items for themselves?

If doing so wouldn't upset her dears, Yasenia would even self-mutilate to give them her body parts.

Of course, she would never do so because this was crossing an invisible line she should never cross, and she knew it deep inside.

The girls helped gather the small mountain of scales and two large horns. Evelyn commented. "I'm still too new to tailoring to use these scales efficiently. I feel that if I use them now, it will be like using gold to make shit, so keep them with you for the moment, Andrea."

Andrea wanted to say something, but Evelyn snorted and said. "However, you better not use them all. I also want to use the gift our dragoness gave us. After powdering and changing them into silk, I want to create some robes with them."

Andrea blinked twice and then chuckled. "Don't worry. I'm also still reluctant to use them. After all, this will be the best material I've worked with in my life. I want to increase my strength and familiarity with them first. Such a treasure has to be treated sparingly."

Yasenia felt so happy that they cherished her scales, and a weak smile appeared on her lips. If she weren't exhausted, her tail would certainly be wagging.

Thankfully her body had almost stopped growing, and she was adjusting to the new size and regaining her energy.

Without any more incidents, Yasenia's growth finally stopped at the size mentioned earlier—twenty meters in height, eighty in length, and eighty in wingspan.

This also meant that, finally, the events outside also stopped.

Ghana was still standing outside, and when she felt the absorption suddenly stop and disappear, she sighed in relief. 'Although we've lost two hundred people, the relationship between our groups is still salvable. I have to report back to the City Lord and make him enter into reason.'

"We are leaving! Register the names of those who died and send the compensation to their families."

The general frowned, not convinced. "Miss Ghana. We should wait outside until they come outside and give us an explanation!"

Ghana's usual calm aura became extremely cold in an instant. She turned toward him, and her spiritual pressure exploded from her for the first time.

The wave of energy was suffocating for most of them, and a trace of terror flashed in their eyes. Ghana said with a low and intimidating voice. "You better stop bothering our previous guests. If it weren't because your impatience and stupidity, would we have lost two hundred powerful guards for nothing!? Shut up before I get really furious and retreat to the barracks!"

The general's animal ears flattened, and he stuttered. "Y-Yes, miss."

He didn't expect Ghana to be a mid-level Ethereal Soul Realm powerhouse!

Ghana snorted and flapped her wings.

With a powerful sonic boom, Ghana disappeared into the distance.

All the soldiers sighed in relief, and after one last look toward the now-calm Runic Dome, they left.

Meanwhile, inside, they all just finished gathering all the dropped scales.

When they were about to speak, they felt the enormous body of the dragoness move.

They turned to look and saw Yasenia slowly standing up.

The enormous dragon's frame slowly blocked the sun before them as it finally stood up.

Yasenia's aura took a turn. Then...

*ROAAR!*

The giant dragon's roar made the sound-canceling barrier wobble dangerously as Yasenia's aura flooded the entirety of the house.

The imposing sight of Yasenia's outstretched wings as her throat trembled together with her dragon roar made something instinctive and primitive inside of them want to surrender their everything to her.

Angel, her soulmate, Kali, the most sensitive to bloodlines, and Cecile, her interlocked soul, felt it the most clearly, and their cheeks flushed.

After Yasenia stopped roaring, she felt refreshed. Although she was still tired, she could finally stand up without feeling like her body was about to crumble into pieces.

She turned her head and looked down at the others.

Seeing the tiny creatures below her, she chuckled. 'So cute. They are like little dolls.'

Yasenia walked around them, including Sierra, and lay in a circle surrounding them.

Her enormous body made the eight-meter-tall Sierra look small. Meanwhile, Ebirah looked at the massive creature with starry eyes and a pounding heart, not in arousal but excited to see a powerful beast.

Tatyana sighed, "Who would've thought that she was only like a big tiger not long ago? Now, we can play sports on her back."

Tatyana reached for a tear that wasn't there and said. "They grow so fast, sniff."

The mouths of the others twitched.

Feeling mischievous, Yasenia asked with a smirk. "Do you want to try doing it now?"

Evelyn looked at Yasenia seriously and said. "My love, I don't want to die so young. Your thing can only be measured in meters now! I also bet we can explore your cave like a real one now!"

Yasenia's lips twitched. "Okay, you win. Anyway, how do I become a human now?"

Angel whines. "Ah, you'll become human so fast?"

Yasenia lowered her head and smiled. "Why? Is my baby unsatisfied?"

Angel blushed and nodded. "I-I want to play with you and fly around on your back."

Yasenia got thoughtful and said. "We can't do that now, baby. Although I also want to carry you around, I'm too eye-catching. Beast hunters will come running if they discover a dragon such as myself. Previously, I was just a "young dragon." The risk was minimal. Now... How many people will want my body to create items?"

Angel realized and got scared. "O-Okay, you transform fast into a human."

Yasenia smiled gently and gave Angel's whole body a single kiss. "Good girl."

Then, she turned toward Tatyana and asked. "So, how do I become a human?"

Tatyana shrugged. "I don't know. It should be something that you know innately."

Yasenia frowned and pondered.

In the meantime, the others didn't lose time and began running around her body as Yasenia thought. They even used her back as a slide.

Yasenia, of course, allowed them to do as they pleased.

After some minutes, her eyes brightened. "Ah! So that's the method. Hoh? Quite easy. Hm, hm. I see. I need to use my energy to compress my muscles by exerting pressure with the meridians."

"Then, to make the flesh change, I should..."

"Hmm, the bones are a problem, but if I use the skill this way..."

"The body functions can also be maintained thanks to the soul..."

Yasenia revised her transformation method for a while.

The others played and lay around as Yasenia's calming, thoughtful voice caressed their eyes.

The ethereal sound in her mellow voice was truly bone-softening.

Cecile asked curiously. "Will your human form change?"

Yasenia shook her head. "Besides my tail, it shouldn't change much. However, in the future, once I master the art of transformation, I'll be able to semi-transform."

Evelyn asked cautiously. "Will you become flat?"

Yasenia lifted an eyebrow. "Will you not love me if I'm not as busty as before?"

Evelyn's expression stagnated.

Yasenia saw her constipated expression and laughed aloud.

Evelyn sighed and resigned herself. "Well, I can satisfy myself if your butt is as fleshy as before."

Yasenia laughed again. "Silly girl. Stop messing around."

Evelyn chuckled and said. "You asked a stupid question. My answer should be as stupid."

Yasenia looked at her tenderly and said. "Sorry for attacking you before, dear."

Evelyn shook her head. "Don't worry. I knew you wouldn't harm me."

Yasenia turned toward Tatyana and lowered her head to look at the small Kaleina.

Kaleina had seen the whole transformation process, so she knew that this was her dear mom. She squeaked in delight after seeing Yasenia much more energetic. "My little precious was worried. Sorry, mom is alright."

The gentle voice was enough to make our girls sluggish and warm. 'Sigh, she is a sin.'

After playing with them in her dragon form for a while, Yasenia decided to begin her transformation. "Dears, retreat."

They all nodded and jumped off of her.

Then, Yasenia began circling her energy.

Energy surged inside her as the [Primordial Energy core] converted the World Energy into her own.

Yasenia's giant body began to shine in a radiant but soft light. Then, they saw the enormous dragon slowly shrinking.

The speed was much quicker than before, and the process was calm and peaceful.

The lights of dusk, together with Yasenia's radiance, created a view that would charm anyone. Moreover, the moving energy formed a soft, warm gale that caressed their bodies and carried Yasenia's presence.

They couldn't help but relax and feel as if their bodies were being hugged by their dragoness. It was soothing and peaceful. 'Thankfully, the transformation is painless and fast.'

They saw her height shrink from twenty meters to ten, five, and finally, a little less than three meters.

Then, her body didn't only become smaller, but it also began changing forms.

This technique was a natural skill for most high-bloodline creatures. Something created and passed through their genes by their ancestors to allow a painless transformation.

It was complex, but it was easy for beasts. It's like the uncontrollable things inside a human that we don't know how it works.

Although Yasenia was the first dragon of her species, that didn't mean that she didn't have knowledge from her ancestors, she was a dragon, after all. Moreover, Yasenia has evolved from the Sun God, Moon Goddess, and Tatyana's bloodlines.

No matter how different her current bloodline, [Empyrean Cosmos Dragon], was, she had absorbed their generational and genetic traits.

The first visual changes were the wings. They slowly folded on top of her back and began melting into the skin. Then, the neck shortened as her long face shrunk.

Yasenia went onto her hind legs, and their bone structure changed into a straight pair of beautiful legs.

Her arms also changed, and her claws disappeared, leaving behind a pair of slender and beautiful hands.

The scales on her body sunk inside her skin, like pebbles falling into the water, and left behind soft bluish skin.

However, the color soon changed, going into a healthy pinkish-white.

Then, they observed her chest as the flat surface became more voluminous, gaining a very bountiful and perky shape.

Those familiar large pairs of breasts appeared before their sight, and they couldn't help but feel nostalgic. 'Our big dragoness is back.'

Well, you can't blame them. Those gorgeous breasts were quite a characteristic feature of our dragoness.

However, as her glossy black hair grew in an instant, reaching below her waist, there was a special change.

Around her body, a beautiful blue, golden, and silver dress appeared. It was off-shoulder and opened in the middle, showing a generous cleavage that opened until her belly button.

A skirt made from her own starry-blue scales, long in the back and short in the front, also materialized, allowing their eyes to land on her plum thighs and long legs.

Yasenia looked like a Celestial and Seductive goddess.

On her feet, a pair of high boots that complemented what she wore surrounded her dainty and soft-looking feet.

Her beautiful and long dragon tail remained the only thing from her dragon form. However, this didn't diminish the change because it wasn't the triple-section tail like before. Now, it was exactly like her tail in dragon form—a starry blue tail with beautiful golden rings surrounding it. The tip was completely golden.

Moreover, the tail glowed softly like her dragon body, leaving a lingering image of beautiful glittering stars wherever it moved.

They all held their breaths as the unmatched beauty reappeared before them. They didn't want to disturb the beautiful creature suddenly emerging from the transformation.

Instead of just the seductive aura she carried before, her body and her dress also gave her an ethereal beauty that a mortal could never hope to compare.

Finally, Yasenia's closed eyes slowly opened, revealing a charming pair of golden slit-eyes that could snare souls with a single look.

She looked at them with a smile on her kissable and naturally moist lips and said, soft and gentle. "I'm back, dears."
