<h4>Chapter 971 Mother And Son </h4>
?-----
After looking at Aquarina''s Spirits Status, I wondered what else I could get if we gave one to Pyuku too. He was certainly the strongest and most mysterious, we''ve never seen slime monsters other than him either, so it would be really interesting to know.
Once we finally find him, I''ll make sure to give him a System Seed so we can help him be even stronger, and see what''s up with his Skills and Race!
"Oh, you''re back. Just what happened?" My mother asked.
"You ran away out of nowhere, did you find a rare monster roaming around?" Nepheline wondered.
"Pyuku ran way out of nowhere!" Said Aquarina. "He went to the Evergreen Forest… Can we go look for him together?"
"Oh? Thatzy slime ran away out of nowhere?!" Her mother asked. "What the…? I''m going to teach that damn thing a lesson once we find him! Familiars shouldn''t be running away from their masters like that!"
"Hmm, it sure is strange." Shade agreed. "Well, how about we depart to the ruins while we are at it, Faylen? An?"
"Sure, I''m ready anytime. We''ve already had breakfast!" My father said, patting my head. "Wanna go on an adventure like old times, Sylphy?"
"You know I''m more than ready dad!" I nodded happily. "I remember I only explored that mysterious forest very little; I want to give it another try!"
"Hahaha, I can tell you''re super excited." My fatherughed. "Then what are we waiting for? Arafunn, Ninhursag! Are you ready?"
"Sure, we are!" Arafunn nodded. "Anytime!"
"dly, I really want to explore this beautiful continent. I can sense the presence of very strong beasts roaming itsnds… Maybe its time for me to acquire new Monster Cores to shapeshift into." Ninhursag said.
"You haven''t gotten a new year in years, haven''t you?" Asked my mother. "What was thest one?"
"The ck Wyvern from Eastgrain''s attack…" Said Ninhursag. "I have a limit of them, but I''ve grown stronger since then, I think I can fit one or two more… I have to choose carefully what will be my next transformations slots…"
Skin Changers had a truly unique way to grow stronger, devouring a prey and then using their magic crystals as catalyst, they could "register" them within their physiques as "shapes" they canter transform into, gaining their stats and skills temporarily in those forms.
It is the ultimate form of the Beast Aura thing she taught us, but perhaps even more evolved and personal, a unique power of her bloodline which can only be barely imitated by us through intense training.
I remember that back then, she was quite conflicted and alone, and once we had to run away from the Amazonian Jungles, she started to slowly open much more better to us. I guess it has to do with having had her revenge in a way, although not exactly against the same person that took away her parents… but a Blue Demon that, agh, I really don''t want to remember that to be honest.
"Does that means you get locked to whatever you choose first, mom?" Zack wondered.
"Well, it''s not like I''m locked with whatever I assume first, I can switch around too." Ninhursag answered one of Zack''s questions. "And choose what I desire to be a permanent transformation. This is why it''s good to always have some free slots as well."
"Interesting…" Zack analyzed. "I wonder if I could one day get that sort of power… No, right? I''m not even a Skin Changer like mom… What about Luck?"
"I don''t think I could either, that''s way too advanced. My transformation is rted with the Divine Beast Spirits I was blessed with." Luck exined. "Apletely different power I think."
"Indeed, both of you can''t get the power… normally. But you could eventually inherit its core aspects and transform them, fusing them with your own abilities." Ninhursag exined. "This is what we''ll go do eventually, once the end of the yeares and we must depart."
"I see…" Zack nodded. "It has to do with the inheritance, huh?"
"Indeed. It has special techniques and treasures that will help you more than you think. Believe me, you do have the talent. Luck by being a Beast hero, and you… because I''ve made sure to train you to be able to, despite your shorings." Ninhursag said. "To me, you''re just as amazing as the heroes, my dear son."
"M-Mother…" Zack felt embarrassed, blushing a bit. "Thanks for helping me grow stronger…"
"It''s fine." She hugged him, giving him a kiss on his forehead. "You''re my precious family, Zack… Mom would do anything for you."
"Y-You''ve gotten really closetely…" Zack blushed a bit more.
"What? You don''t like it?" Asked Ninhursag with a coquettish smile.
"I-It''s not like I don''t like it…" Zack was being rubbed by Ninhursag''srge breasts as she hugged him. "I-It''s just that… err, just forget it."
"Hm?" Ninhursag didn''t get it, she weas very oblivious of her tremendous beauty.
After all, I have to admit she''s too sexy! I think my first crush with a woman was when we first meet her, her body is just so hot though!
Those beautiful and wide hips, herrge breasts, her muscr yet beautiful and feminine frame, her gorgeous and wless face, her long hair…
And above all, that dark brown chocte skin, covered on white tattoos… She has such an exotic beauty!
Ah, I better stop, Aquarina is my everything now.
But yeah, I did had… quite the strong crush on her, itsted very little, though I still find her very attractive…
"Anyways, let''s get going." My mother made me snap out of my thoughts. "Sylphy?"
"Y-Yeah!" I nodded, as Aquarina wondered what I was even thinking about.
"Hm?" She wondered.
"Ahahaha, I was just wondering about the spirits." I smiled, trying to act innocently.
"Oh, they''re fine, don''t worry about side effects." Aquarina smiled.
"I''ve noticed they got stronger out of nowhere!" Said Lara. "What happened to them?"
"Err, we can exinter, nothing too big." I smiled.
"Yeah!" Aquarina nodded.
We couldn''t just talk out-loud about the system in front of our parents…
