Chapter 856 Emerald And Paprika
Chapter 856 Emerald And Paprika
?-----
I gathered the special materials I wanted to feed them. According to the Skill description and what the Grimoire specified; they can only absorb materials one with each Rank.
Feeding them too many materials will make them be unable to absorb them and they might grow sick… They have grown rather frailer, compared to normal Familiars.
Nonetheless, the Materials I could feed them had no limits, so I took my highest quality materials from the Dragon Monsters we've been hunting so far.
This included the Black Flames mutated Bosses and also the Holy Flames mutated Bosses. Of course, there was also a quantity limit.
So I only took a few scales, meat and bones for the two. These were their first ever meals since their rebirth as unique familiar. It was a relief they came with sharp tooth already.
"Nom, nom… Graar!" Paprika was licking her face as she feasted on the meat.
"Buguh… Nom…!" Emerald was not any different.
I also gave them some things that went better with their affinities, such as Spirit Stones of their respective elements, and some more meat of monsters of their element as well.
Paprika ate a lot of blazing monster meat, mostly from our most recent dungeon. Meanwhile, Emerald ate a lot of rocks, stones, crystals, and ores.
"They're eating so voraciously, those two." Giggled my mother.
"Indeed, looks like they were quite hungry." My father laughed.
The twins decided to bring the two baby familiars to the living room, so everyone could see them. Now they were feasting at our side while we were having dinner.
In all the things that happened, it had already gotten quite late, so we decided to eat dinner right away for the moment.
"To think you could create these types of creatures now…" Said my grandmother. "I never heard of the Summoner being able to create eggs!"
"Well, what we know about the Summoner is limited…" Said Erika's mother. "History wasn't written in much detail as it is now. We lacked most of the current day technology and magical advancements as well."
"Oh well…" My grandmother giggled. "I wonder if Blake will surpass the ancient hero eventually…"
"I think he will definitely do that." My father said. "I mean, hasn't he defeated two archdemons already? He's on a roll!"
"Well, wasn't there a Hero already too?" Wondered my mother. "Dear, didn't you meet him?"
"Oh, Dylan you mean?" I asked. "Yes, we've meet him a couple of times… I don't have much to say about him."
"But isn't he the Hero?" My mother seemed confused.
"He possesses the Hero Talent." I nodded. "But that he's really considered one… I am not sure."
"Well, he has done a lot for the continental alliance." Cattalina said. "But even as strong as he is, he isn't enough to deal with all the threats."
"Hmm, Blake talked like he doesn't like him, and I know my son." My father suddenly said. "Did this guy do something to you?" He raised an eyebrow.
"We had a fight at the beginning of the academy, just to test my strength… I was easily obliterated but did my best. I got a good qualification with that." I said. "It's nothing, really. I just don't get along with people like him."
"Huh… Wait you fought with the hero?!" My mother was shaken. "A-And you survived that too…"
"Naturally, he's not invincible, and he was holding back a lot too." I laughed. "Though, on more important matters… Looks like these two are done with their meal."
I saw both Paprika and Emerald beginning to glow brightly, their appearances changing slightly, and even their stats increased too.
Ding!
[The [Unique Familiars] [Paprika] and [Emerald] have absorbed and eaten the compatible Materials.]
[All their Stats have greatly increased.]
[They have gained some new Skills!]
[Their current Skills have become slightly stronger.]
[To continue their growth, they require to absorb Spirit Orbs and defeat monsters at a rate of 1:1]
[Current Growth: 0/10]
"I see, so they need to both hunt a monster and eat their spirit orb, huh? I can't just handfeed them everything to get them stronger. They require experience in the field." I nodded. "That's actually quite excellent, tomorrow we'll be going to the forest to have a hunting trip. How about it?"
"Ooh, sure!" Allan said happily.
"I wanna hunt too!" Anna said.
"Can we come along?" My mother asked. "We could camp outside and have some barbeque! Like old times."
"Yeah, sounds like a good idea." My father nodded. "How about it, champ? Don't mind your old parents sticking with you?"
"Of course not. Grandma can come along too. And mother-in-
law as well." I nodded.
"Thank you dear, I can move just fine over this fine goat, so I can go anywhere you want me to! Ohohoh!" Giggled grandmother.
"A-A camping trip? I've never had one of those! W-What are you supposed to do in these?" Mother-in-law wondered.
"Mom! How don't you know? We bring tents and live outside! Sleep in the tents and make food and barbeque. And explore." Said Erika. "We also wash ourselves in the river! It's so much fun! We could go further away near the mountains now that I think about it! We've not explored that area before."
"Yeah, I was thinking the same. Would be a nice way to scout the surroundings so I can see where the Dragon could be." I agreed.
"The Dragon?" My father asked. "What are you talking about?"
"Y-You mean the White Dragon of the Mithril Mountain, dear?!" My mother asked. "Wait…"
"Don't tell me you're planning on hunting it…" My father said, crossing his arms.
"Erm… Well, yes." I nodded.
"EH?!"
My parents were shocked by this idea, while grandmother only laughed.
"Well, what's wrong with that? If I can hunt it down, well be freed from it and we will be able to mine Mithril like in the past." I explained. "This way, the whole dukedom could improve its economy."
Also I'll get a lot of Mithril for myself too…
"T-That's… Can you do it?" My father asked.
"I believe so, as long as I receive the help of all my friends." I nodded confidently. "But that'll be for later. For now, let's relax and rest."
