"Baby, daddy, I have been waiting for a long time. I can only share the hard work...baby.
Hatch it quickly and follow me to explore this magical world."
Hero pulled up the chair, put his hands on the edge of the crystal thorn, and lay half of his body on it, leaning into it.
Watching the movement inside all the time, pouring some black water from time to time.
If Byrne saw that worried look, he would have thought that Holo had been taken away by the Nightmare Soul. At this moment, that cold-blooded and ruthless man actually looked like an old father waiting to give birth.
It's just that Helo thinks this matter is very important. Watering the black water is not troublesome, it just consumes a little soul energy.
During this time, he put aside everything and looked forward to the birth of a little life that would share a soul with him in the future.
This was the first time in his life that he had experienced this kind of thing, and that feeling... was amazing.
As if hearing Hero's desire, the soul beast egg floating in the black water responded.
Gujiguji~
Suddenly, a smell came from the black water and spread throughout the room.
At this time, the taste was deeply imprinted in the depths of Hero's memory.
Salty and wet, fresh fish, and a port after the rain, Hero couldn't tell which type it belonged to, but he was certain that it came from the deep sea.
That place that Hero didn't want to remember was so familiar and friendly at the moment.
When Holo looked at it again.
The speckled soul beast eggshell in the black water has broken into pieces.
Eight small black tentacles stretched out from the gap. They looked very flexible. They were winding and circling, carefully clinging to the eggshell.
Tightly fit the originally broken eggshell to the body.
Click!
A black head poked out of the water with the top eggshell on top.
Her off-white eyes were full of innocence, staring blankly at Hero's delighted face.
"Paji~"
"Welcome to the fun world, little one!"
Just when Hero stretched out his hand to welcome this little life, the little guy hiding in the eggshell took a sip and instantly sucked up the remaining black water in the crystal. The eggshell that was wrapped around it was also swallowed in an instant.
Eat it all.
Without the cover of the black water, the empty environment in the crystal bucket made him feel a little panicked.
It seems that the newborn octopus is very timid. Even though it recognizes that Holo is its father, it still wraps its body with its tentacles and huddles in the corner.
However, looking into Holo's eyes through the gaps in the tentacles, one can see its expectations.
"Your mother stirred up the sea and the sky in the face of death. Why did you become timid now? Those things must not be enough to eat."
Hero leaned forward and stretched out his right hand into the crystal bucket. Black water overflowed from the palm of his hand, and the entire palm became extremely sticky, as if covered with a layer of oil.
Seemingly responding to his question, or perhaps because he really hadn't eaten enough just now, smelling the familiar smell in Hero's hand, the octopus boy relaxed his body and slowly wrapped his tentacles around his palm, hiding his mouth underneath.
Suck it tight.
Gudonggudong.
The weird sucking sound was heard very clearly in the silent room.
With a fatherly smile, Hero looked at the octopus in front of him who was so greedy that he was so greedy that he was overwhelmed by the delicious food. He decisively relaxed his mind and released the power of his soul to penetrate deeply into its body.
"The activity... is so high? This is almost comparable to the adult state of ordinary soul beasts!"
This was beyond his expectation. Activity was an external manifestation of the soul strength of a soul beast, because like a human magician, it did not have the control to use the power of the soul at the beginning.
Activity is often a symbol of the strength of a soul beast cub.
The higher the activity, the higher the strength of the soul, which means the stronger its own potential.
Although it is not yet known what the octopus cub's abilities are, it seems that Hero is very satisfied with it based on its activity.
Just like a newborn baby, even if you don't know what he will be good at when he grows up, a healthy and strong body will always make people happy.
With the current activity, the soul power that will be realized after growth is definitely not weak.
Holo tried to touch the octopus's soul with his own soul.
During the perception, his blue soul stretched out his hand, and what he felt was a soul as bright as the starry sky.
The dark mass of soul essence was covered with dense star points. Changing the angle, Hero inserted himself into it.
Looking up, the stars are changing, and it is so beautiful.
"Paji?"
"Don't be afraid. Do you want to be full? Then try to accept it."
Holo's soul tried to merge with the octopus's soul, but at the moment of contact, he felt its instinctive resistance and struggle.
This is the natural habit of the soul beast, its savage instinct to resist actions that threaten it.
Even if it regards you as its father, it will still struggle. If there is no means of suppression, its soul is not strong enough.
It is easy to be de-fused, and the soul is directly swallowed by the soul beast.
There is no so-called master-servant relationship, no chance for relaxation.
This process is inherently risky.
This is exactly the situation of Holo and Octopus Cub at this moment.
It has an activity comparable to the strength of the soul of an adult soul beast since it was born. With such a performance, how could the inner soul be weak?
Even if he is a newborn at this moment, he still has a good impression of Hero and expresses his surrender from the bottom of his heart.
But Hero was just an apprentice who had just gone through an assessment.
There is no qualitative change in the soul.
From a certain perspective, their situation is now evenly matched.
Rookies are pecking each other, and no one can do anything to the other.
"Don't resist. Follow your father and I will live a good life."
"Pah chi? Pah chi! Pah chi pah chi!"
"I know, I know, it won't hurt. Just relax, it will be fine in no time!"
"Pah, pah, pah!"
"This damn instinct, such a young child can't control the soul at all."
In desperation, Holo could only forcefully urge the soul to devour it. As for whether the process would damage the soul, he was not worried about it at all.
As his soul was gradually covered, the octopus began to behave manically unconsciously.
The original sucking turned into biting, the hidden mouthparts were exposed, and the sharp teeth penetrated hard into Holo's flesh.
His skin has been subtly strengthened by soul energy over a long period of time. Even if it is not as strong as those apprentices who specialize in physical soul arts, it is still very tough.
But now it is still easily scratched.
The newborn tentacles are very slender and soft, and you can feel its power, especially now.
The eight tentacles no longer curl up, but extend to all directions, twisting crazily.
The off-white eyes turned as dark as ink at this moment. If there were outsiders, they could still see the faint stars in them.
That is the manifestation of the soul.
In other words, the octopus cub is in pain now, so painful that his soul is visible, and he cannot control the unconscious actions of his body at all.
"Hold on for a while longer! Soon, it will be better soon, and soon there will be no pain."
He felt a little guilty, not only because of the pain of soul fusion, but also because of the twisted characteristics that existed in his soul.
The octopus cub was stimulated during the fusion process.
Holo stretched out his left hand and stroked the octopus's head, but even the tentacles that were thrown to him unconsciously would cause him to feel pain.
And the pain never goes away for a long time. Why is it so painful to shake a newborn baby?
The time for the souls to merge with each other is not long, but the pain it brings to both parties makes them feel that it is extremely long.
And just when it was almost finished.
Another crisp cracking sound came from the room.
Click!
Are there other things in your room?
When did you come in?
"Damn it, at this critical moment."
But when Hero turned his head to look distracted, he saw a petite insect body, shaking the tentacles on its head, getting out of the eggshell, and slowly crawling under the moonlight.
