BXBX NOVEL Chapter 734 Cap 732: Nyx's Old Friend
Now I understand why I can\'t feel anything coming from this woman, I knew she was powerful but I had no idea how much, now I understand it\'s because she is a True Dragon.
I still remember the power that that True Dragon blood I consumed had, it was just remaining power, but it almost destroyed my body every time I consumed it, I\'m sure if it wasn\'t for my unique skill, my blessings at the time, my affinity natural with the blood and the fact that he was a child of the Blood Goddess, then he would be dead for trying to do that idiocy.
But this woman by the name of Vestyne is a living True Dragon with full power, I still don\'t understand the level of power a True Dragon possesses, but I suspect it is equal to or greater than that of an Elf Queen, Spirit King, or Fairy Queen.
Also, this True Dragon is a High Priestess of the Dragon God Akatosh, that could mean that she has access to Holy power just like Vanessa, I\'ve seen how much Holy Power strengthens Vanessa every time she uses it, I can\'t even imagine a True Dragon using it Holy power.
------------
We followed High Priestess Vestyne into the Temple which was very different from what I had expected, once we passed the entrance hall full of Dragon statues, we arrived at a training ground next to a recreation place.
It was strange to see people fighting hard enough to hear bones breaking on one side and on the other side having hammocks, beds, pasta with lots of food, and a bar.
"This place reminds me of home..." (Karina)
"Is this normal in a Dragon Temple?" (I)
"Yes, the Temple teachings are very similar to how Dragons live." (Karina)
"Dragons are confident, carefree, true and determined." (Karina)
"The Dragon Temple is always built with these things in mind, if you want to train then train, if you want to sleep then go to sleep, if you want to eat then go hunting." (Karina)
"She\'s right, Dragons are a lot simpler than you\'d expect." (Nix)
"It\'s a great way to live, I don\'t understand why other races and religions complicate things so much." (Vestyne)
"Could you let me go a little?" (Nix)
"No, I missed you so much..." (Vestyne)
High Priestess Vestyne barely spared a glance at us as she hugged Nix walking ahead, I could overhear their conversation if I wanted, but I thought it best to leave Nix in charge as this High Priestess seems to know Nix.
"No need to worry about her, Vestyne wouldn\'t do anything to her Hired Spirit." (Yara)
"You know her?" (I)
"You could say yes, right Yara." (Vestyne)
"Yes, she\'s a good person, a little too direct, but a good person." (Yara)
------------
We soon arrived in what High Priestess Vestyne called an office, but it looked more like a bedroom.
It had a big hammock with space for 4 people, there were tables with food, 5 cupboards with bottles that I assume are for alcohol, and only one cupboard with books.
There was also a small heated pool inside the "office" where a piece of clothing was floating.
This whole place didn\'t even have a desk, this place was a mix of a personal bedroom and a playroom, and she clearly doesn\'t take her work seriously.
"Sorry for the mess, I haven\'t felt like cleaning up since having fun 2 days ago." (Vestyne)
"(She doesn\'t even try to make excuses already saying that she didn\'t clean the place for lack of will.)" (I)
"Then why did you come here? I\'m sure it wasn\'t because they knew about me since this little crook didn\'t even recognize me." (Vestyne)
"Can\'t blame me for that, you didn\'t have a name back then and you weren\'t even able to stay in Human form." (Nix)
"Why not? You didn\'t have that name either in the past and weren\'t able to assume Human form, but I recognized you the moment you stepped onto the mountain." (Vestyne)
"That means you recognized her by her Aura and not by her appearance." (I)
"There was no way to see us before we arrived at the Dragon Temple." (Yara)
"We can\'t feel your Aura, so Nix can only rely on your appearance." (I)
High Priestess Vestyne seems to have gotten a little embarrassed with everyone talking about her failed argument, she made everyone sit on sofas soft enough to sink into them, so she sits on Nix\'s lap while continuing to hug her.
"Do you really want to talk while you\'re like this?" (I)
"I\'m not stupid, I know she\'s in a contract with you son of the Blood Goddess, I can feel the strong bond between you, since I can\'t stay with her long, I\'ll enjoy it while I can." (Vestyne)
"Alright master, she\'s always been like that, but I\'m worried she hasn\'t changed in 4300 years." (Nix)
"Of course, I have changed, my normal size is bigger than this building, I also learned to eat fruits, I learned to speak, I learned to hunt by myself and I am very strong." (Vestyne)
"Good girl, you tried really hard, didn\'t you?" (Nix)
"Yea." (Vestyne)
"So I\'m sure you can eat fish, right." (Nix)
"..." (Vestyne)
"Look here a fish..." (Nix)
Nix pulls a fish out of its shadow but it was a cooked fish it must be leftovers from yesterday\'s food but as soon as the fish appeared High Priestess Vestyne turned pale and sweating as she looked at the fish which disappeared without a trace, I look at the wall and I see a big hole through which I can see the sky.
"Keep that disgusting thing away from me!" (Vestyne)
"I still don\'t get it, doesn\'t she like fish?" (I)
"She hates fish, she had a Queen of Spirits who always cooked for us, but she only prepared fish for us to eat." (Nix)
"That wasn\'t food, I say she wanted to kill me, I\'m sure it was poison." (Vestyne)
"Because of that Vestyne started to hate fish." (Nix)
"Just keep those disgusting things away from me." (Vestyne)
"I think everyone strayed from the matter at hand, certain Priestess Karina." (Yara)
"We can\'t do anything since Nix has found an old friend." (Karina)
