The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1620

Chapter 1620: Reliable Student

Indeed, Tessa was not impressed with the effects of the [Breath Of The World] spell.

It worked exactly as advertised, but she had not signed up to be laying eggs. Especially not Behemoth eggs of that size. And the pleased look on Thor’s face as he slept was not putting her in any better of a mood.

Thanks to her training, she knew that it was leftover pregnancy hormones, but she really did want to slap that smug smile off his face.

With Thor pulling her into a group, it shared his regeneration skills with her, so there was no need to call in the healers. But not needing to call in the healers did not make up for surprise childbirth in egg form.

No matter how pretty they were.

Deep in her mind, draconic instincts to protect the nest were stirring. They were similar to the motherly instincts of most other species, but as a Red Dragon dragonkin, her instincts were much more violent toward anything that threatened her clutch.

And that was saying something, given how violent the average dragon was about threats to their eggs.

Karl scanned the Tiny World, and saw that the Dragon Eggs were happily absorbing all the energy that they could get. They were close to awakening, and the change in the world was enough to trigger the effect automatically as they approached the limits of their development in the shell.

Watching them gave Karl an idea.

The Haint and the Sword of Champions both had life and soul energy stored. If he targeted a few of the most promising eggs, he might be able to push them to a whole new level.

The extra energy should be able to push them right to a bottleneck, and then they would advance not long after hatching.

Not a change in species or potential, but a head start on life.

It would deplete his stores, though.

With that in mind, Karl decided to save it for Tessa’s clutch. The other dragons were all foundlings, and he had given them the best possible opportunities, but Tessa’s were family.

Family always got special consideration.

Dana was with Ophelia in the kitchen, where a small group of Elves were gathered, arguing about whether today was a birthday, a holiday, or a special event.

All of them called for different menus, apparently. But the day could be counted as all of the above.

That was causing some contention, as simply making everything was too much for the time that they had, and the more time that they spent discussing it, the less time that they had to actually make the food.

They were not the only ones with plans, though.

Button was awake, and she had managed to wrangle one of the Elves who was supposed to have a day off from the kitchen into a devious plan to teach her how to make breakfast burritos.

In her mind, they were the perfect food, combining meat, eggs, vegetables and bread into one convenient envelope, putting them one step over pizza, which was messy and cheesy to eat when it was hot.

But the goal was not just to get her favourite food whenever she wanted it.

No, she knew that the eggs were hatching, and this was her first and best chance to recruit more agents of chaos in her petition to add a third breakfast burrito morning to the meal schedule.
