The magical beast opened its wide mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth and edges, displaying its long tongue that extended out of its large oral orifice.
This... This...
Everyone was stunned!
This dragon-like magical beast can speak? And its voice sounded feminine... A female magical beast?
Furthermore, isn’t this the rumored Earth Rank Magical Beast Species that can learn and converse human speech?
"It’s me..." Clara had already moved forwards by the time the magical beast spoke, her eyes calmly yet curiously gazing at the magical beast with fervor.
For the first time in her life, she felt so little in front of a being! Yet, she also had the excitement of witnessing a new sight!
Indeed, this had been the reason why she was so disappointed that she could not head to the First Layer.
Nevertheless, fortunately, there was such a magical beast here left behind.
The towering Earth Dragon in front of her was about 55 meters tall and 25 meters wide, with its long dragon tail extending to about 10 meters from its back, flailing as it sent pressure blasts to the surroundings.
"You are Clara Loret? Good!" The Earth Dragon’s voice radiated and it threatened to tear the eardrums of the people below it.
Even Clara, who was the one standing closest to it, frowned.
"You’re causing harm to the people here, lower your voice and your stature!" She coldly spoke.
The Earth Dragon blinked its jet black reptilian eyes and panned its head over the surface of the city. Only then did it realize what kind of damage it did with its resounding voice.
Instantly, its form radiated a yellowish golden glow before its massive figure rapidly dwindled in size till it became a 5 feet human figure.
The yellowish golden glow that radiated around the human figure gradually took shape into a yellow-red robe with earth dragon patterns, adorning the human figure.
Once the yellowish golden glow receded and changed into a robe, the features of the human figure became visible.
A pair of black eyes tinged with a yellow luminosity, a sharp nose and normal mouth with rosy lips and neat yet sturdy teeth like those of a normal human’s were revealed.
On top of the head of the human figure lay yellow-red silky hair that reached till the waist.
Jonas gulped again as he saw the magical beast transform into a human; into a young, smiling, teenage girl.
His mouth was wide open but didn’t know what to say as he shut his mouth and the others were also in a similar state as their minds churned with questions while their eyes exhibited disbelief.
Could this be an illusion?
Nevertheless, the mighty undulations the young girl emitted still let them know that what they had seen could be none other than reality.
"Hehe, I apologize. If my Mistress saw this, I would undoubtedly be punished..."
A sharp yet feminine voice echoed out from the young girl.
Clara nodded her head as if she knew what exactly the young girl, the dragon-like magical beast meant.
Indeed, she knew what exactly was happening here. Her elder brother, Davis, had already told her that Princess Isabella has an Earth Dragon that has just hatched four or five years ago.
Looking at the 5 feet tall girl, Clara knew that this female earth dragon was the one her brother mentioned and by this time, should’ve reached the youngling phase of her life.
Clara had heard about the concept of magical beast growth phases from her elder brother.
When compared with a human in terms of body maturity, she garnered that the female earth dragon’s age should be no more than 14.
Magical Beasts has mainly four phases in its growth.
Infancy, Youngling, Adult and Matured.
Infancy is the phase when the magical beast has been given birth to or hatched from an egg. In a few days or a few hours, the magical beast would be able to walk and fly depending upon its prowess and will be even able to unleash attacks.
In this period, they will quickly grow in a few years and become a youngling.
Magical Beasts are capable of realizing 30% of their bloodline potential by the time they enter the youngling phase.
As for entering the adult phase, it would either take a long time or a short time, depending upon the lifestyle of the particular Magical Beast.
By the time a Magical Beast is an adult, it will be able to realize 80% of its maximum bloodline potential just by living and eating normally from its youngling phase.
In other words, as long as the magical beast lived for a long time and kept itself alive, it would be able to eventually realize 80% of bloodline potential.
After that, it would just grow old as time passes by, becoming mature where its potential could be maximized or degraded depending upon its vitality.
As for the remaining 20% potential, the magical beasts realize it by finding and eating resources that are capable of invoking their bloodline to increase their strength.
These four phases were compared with a human’s life phase and derived for awareness and comprehension purposes. Nevertheless, many magical beasts fell into this concept unless if they were unique or entirely different.
But in reality, the concept of phases for a magical beast doesn’t apply practically after they become a youngling because the more they eat spiritual treasures or the more they absorb energy from spirit stones, the sooner they would grow into an adult!
This was also one of the reasons they were named Magical Beasts, instead of Savage Beasts or Ferocious Beasts.
In any case, Clara wasn’t deeply interested in categorizing the age of a magical beast.
"Why did you come here?" Her tone was no longer cold since the female earth dragon respected her wishes to tone down her voice and stature.
"I came here for the token continuing the way to the First Layer." The young girl placed the back of one of her hand on her hip and pursed her lips, "Hand it over, or let’s go together!"
Clara became startled as her eyes widened.
Before she could say anything, the young girl continued.
"I know you are the one who cleared that Immortal Inheritance in the F-Fir... whatever Island, so you should be the one who possesses the token plate which is capable of letting me into the First Layer!"
Indeed, Clara did possess the token plate once but it was taken away by her elder brother!
"Who told you that?" Clara questioned.
The young girl instantly pointed towards her back.
"The men and the women there told me!"
’That direction... The Ruth Empire?’ Clara realized but still asked.
"From where?"
The young girl became stumped. She moved her hands to her head and held it for a few seconds.
"Uh... The place where my Mistress stayed... The Royal Palace of my mistress’s empire."
"Ruth Empire..." Clara indifferently added.
"Yes! Ruth! My mistress’s name is also Ruth. How can I forget and not connect this?"
Clara blinked once and then concluded that the young girl’s, no, the magical beast’s intelligence really hadn’t developed much. It was no less than a 5-year-old human.
But with its current power which is above the Sixth Stage, if the unintelligent earth dragon were to make a move out of innocent anger, people would undoubtedly die.
Maybe even she would, and Clara understood this point till she narrowed her eyes in contemplation.
A second later, she spoke, "Unfortunately for you, your mistress knows you’re here."
Once Clara’s words echoed in the skies, the young girl leaped in fright before she looked left and right, searching for her mistress in both nervousness and reverence.
"Where?"
Clara’s mouth slightly curved, finding it hard to curb her laughter, however her expression didn’t look like she was finding it difficult to control her laughter.
