Transmigrate to another world

Chapter 175 Fallen fortress [ 8 ]

Emelia says "That creepy looking thing? Well, if you really want to, I will help."

"A normal horse can't carry me, but that thing looks like it would be able to."

Giles says "I am a lancer and I know combat mounts. I will help too."

"Thank you."

Giles says "You saved all our lives, you don't need to thank us."

"It wasn't my power that saved you, it was Krenocia's so don't worry about owing me."

Emelia says "It may not have been your power but you were still the one who saved us. And from what Justin said if you hadn't spared him we would all have died working for an evil king."

"The king is an evil man and you shouldn't underestimate him. But you should be more wary of the power that is manipulating him."

Giles says "Right, that shadow demon you told us about."

"Yeah."

Emelia says "There it is, I still say it is creepy."

Giles says "I thought it was just a statue, but if that thing is real it will be an awesome combat mount." Your journey continues on empire

"Assuming it can be tamed, I agree."

Emelia says "Judging by the teeth and the shape of the jaw it is a strict carnivore, having some meat handy to feed it will help."

So following her advice I take out a big chunk of drake meat and hold it in one hand, in the other I hold the wand. Emelia takes out a crude hand carved flute and starts to play a soft soothing song. Once the song is going she gives me a nod and I reach out and touch the wand to the statue.

The wand instantly turns to ash in my hand after I touch it to the statue. Unlike with the heroes the statue does not revert instantly. Instead the brown of stone where I touched the wand slowly turns to gray.

"Thanks for all your help! I'm going to take this guy outside and try riding him."

Emelia says "Okay, but just so you know it's a female."

"Ahh okay, thanks! I think I will name you Lizzy!"

There is a sudden thunderclap and I am left with my ears ringing and feeling dizzy. By the time it passes, the other heroes have arrived, Silveria is checking on Emmy who is sitting on the floor. Giles also ended up on the floor and Rachel is checking him over.

Justin says "What happened? We heard an explosion!"

"I'm not sure!"

Emelia says "I know! Klein named Lizzy, the same thing happened when I named Silveria."

"You say named, but I feel you mean something different. What really happened?"

Emelia says "The way mother wolf explained it to me, a beast is not supposed to have a name, but with enough will and power we can give them a name."

"So what does having a name mean for a beast?"

Emelia says "Mother wolf told me for a sacred beast it means they can gain class levels. She didn't say what it does for a normal mana beast but I would guess it makes it easier for them to become sacred beasts."

"A normal mana beast can evolve into a sacred beast?!"

Emelia says "That is what mother wolf told me. Except for Silveria all sacred beasts started as mana beasts."

"Silveria is special?"

Emelia says "Yes, she was born a sacred beast, mother wolf didn't know why though."

"Hmm, interesting. Anyway, while I go take Lizzy for a trial run, why don't you all discuss your plans."
