Prince Nathan also quickly noticed the change in the mana of the Tiny World.
"Karl? Is there a reason for the mana change?" He asked.
"I left the door open next to the hippo herd, and they’re leaking mana from the Immortal Realm. That one’s my bad. The Tiny World spell is highly attuned to it, so it’s beginning to integrate with the space."
The Shadow Dragon paused as he considered that answer. It made sense, this skill was an incredibly powerful one. But attuning the Tiny World to the Immortal Realm would make it a peerless training ground for anyone who was in the peak levels of Mythic, with faster growth, and an extremely high chance of reaching the peak.
Not even the Mythic Rank dungeons had that advantage, and they came with great risks, as well as monetary instead of growth rewards.
After a certain point, money really did cease to matter as much.
Then, something else caused his mind to freeze.
"You’re raising eggs in here. Dragon eggs, which will naturally absorb the power of the world around them. If they’re in an environment like this, with massively increased mana, both in density and quality, what sort of incubation are they going to have?"
Karl shrugged. "Well, they started out on a continent with the System locked, and mana suppressed, so they had a slow growth in the early stages, this might just be enough to get them back on track.
Or, we might end up with some Royal Rank hatchlings, and that could be highly entertaining."
"How would that be entertaining?"
"Well, they’re all orphans, right? So we can find them good homes. Perhaps with Noble families whose glory has faded. Or to side branches of great families.
They could all use an Heir that was born at Royal Rank, right?" Karl joked.
"That’s awful. The amount of damage that could do to the political structure among the Noble families... oh, that was the point. Never mind."
The dragons who were living in the Tiny World all laughed at the expression on the Prince’s face.
"You get used to it. We’re all coming to terms with the fact that we’re going to be the weakest members of the group much sooner than planned." Librarian Ike, the blue dragon assigned to the Tiny World, joked.
None of them were the strongest of their batch, that was how they had ended up on an assignment to an isolated separate space, even if it was operated by Karl, Avatar of the World Dragon, who the Gods were immensely curious about.
And through that, their clerics were also immensely interested in.
Karl was going to tease the Prince about wanting to stay in the space until he advanced when he suddenly sensed an Immortal Rank presence outside.
Perhaps today wouldn’t be boring after all.
"One moment, while I go talk to a guy about a thing." He declared, then left the space, and a whole group of confused dragons.
Karl stood alone among the Hippos, many of whom came over to have their heads rubbed. If he didn’t know better, he would swear that they were actually a domesticated animal.
But what he didn’t immediately spot was the Immortal.
He could still sense the mana disturbance, it was close, but it was disguised.
