Reincarnated as a World

Ch.45 A New Race

The whole Branch Clan owned by Drako was exterminated and he had to flee with Lily to their nearest territory. 

The Dragon King was quite satisfied with exterminating the ‘entire’ Snake Race and didn’t mind letting them go, trying to kill the 2 would be too much work anyways so he rallied the rest of the Dragons and flew back home. A job well done he had thought.

But he certainly wasn’t prepared for tens of thousands of high level snakes led by a ferocious 50 metre long Stage 8 Spirit Beast to storm his territory.

It was obviously Jörma and the rest, this also included the now-3-headed Snake Hiculu who was a Stage 4 Spirit Beast.

Although Jörma was busy, she couldn’t just let the Snake Clan suffer such a big loss with no profit. So what’s a Beast Overlord to do? She ran up on their territory of course! She wanted some compensation and she wouldn’t leave until she was satisfied.

And so a full-blown war took place in the Western Forest.

3 days later the War was over and the losses were tallied. The result of the war was pretty much a tie, both sides suffering heavy casualties but making a massive profit too.

But first let’s assess the losses on the Snake side.

26,000 Elite Snakes were slaughtered with 5000 more being crippled. Hiculu had one of his heads chopped off, reducing the total number to 2. He wasn’t a true Hydra so there would be no regrowth unless something special happened. Drako had both of his antlers snapped off. Lily had nearly half of her face cut off and Jörma… had a couple scales cut off.

It was only natural, even though she faced the Dragon King and 3 Supremes by herself, she was a good 4 stages above the Dragon King who was a stage 4 Spirit Beast. On top of that, she had a bloodline. if she wanted to, she could use the Dragon King as a toy to casually play with. Only the Supreme Dragons prevented that terrifying fate.

{ 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡’𝐬 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞: Elder Dragons are 1st generation Dragons. Supreme Dragons are powerful Dragons that own 1 of the 14 peaks on the Dragon Mountain, the 15th Peak or rather the 1st of the 15 belongs to the Dragon King. }

Over on the Dragon’s side there were a total of 2000 deaths. 7 Elders and 3 Supremes were killed with 1 Supreme being kidnapped, leaving only 60 1st generations left (That includes the Dragon King, the 9 Destruction Dragons and Gaia, the Creation Dragon). The Dragon King was also heavily injured.

As for the gains that the 2 sides made in the war.

First with the Snakes was the high quality food that they gained from the Dragon Carcasses that they dragged back home. As a result, there were a lot of breakthroughs when they settled down. Jörma broke through the 9th stage which could only be explained by her bloodline's excellent ability to devour essence from organic objects. Hiculu (who was extremely agitated at the loss of a head) broke through to the 5th stage. Lily entered the 3rd stage and Drako finally entered the 1st Stage as a Spirit Beast.

But that was not all. Their biggest gain was when Drako evolved. Using the [Evolutionary Blood Beast Technique] on the Supreme Dragon they had captured, he had managed to obtain the bloodline of a Supreme Wind Dragon.

But he did not become an overgrown lizard with wings and a horn. Nay, his foundations were too strong to change that much.

However, he did get the best he could out of the bloodline. Sacrificing wings, he managed to obtain 4 legs, extremely hard scales, menacingly sharp claws, a Dragon head complete with a full set of fangs and finally a weird mix of Antler and Horns. They were still antlers, but they didn’t spread out as much as before and each ‘branch’ was very profoundly sharp.

His amber scales now contained a majestic glow with a small illusive effect that gave the scales a faint lava-like appearance. His lustrous mane now looked like it was fully made from dark red flames and his golden eyes were now very bright. If he didn’t control them they were fully capable of replacing torchlights, lighting up the path wherever he looked.

A terrifying curse for any closet pervert no doubt.

All jokes aside, those effects were a result of Drako’s Fire Laws being encoded into his DNA when he evolved. This evolution that normally would have made him something like a [Fire Law Snake] is what fused with the Supreme [Wind Dragon] bloodline to make him what he is now.

A long serpentine Dragon with sharp antlers instead of horns and a lack of wings. The only thing that set him apart from the Eastern Dragons back on Earth was the lack of whiskers.

When Jörma witnessed these changes of events she was very pleased but sad at the same time. Since her brother was no longer a Snake, sooner or later he wouldn’t be able to fit in with the other Snakes.

Hiculu had already faced a slight issue because of his abnormal multiple heads but because of his strength, no one dared to have any discontent. But Drako was completely different, his head wasn’t like that of a Snake at all and he even had legs. The Snakes would respect him but never accept him.

Hmm... It could be considered racism.

Jörma didn’t care too much about such things but she knew that her feelings alone wouldn’t change much, Drako would still be ostracized.

Knowing nothing could be done, she decided to have Drako separate from the Clan with bountiful gifts.

She gave him ownership of their entire territory in the Eastern Forest, 100 powerful wives from the 1st generation of Snakes, 10,000 Elite Guards and the rest of the Dragon carcasses so that he could regain his strength quickly.

This crazy turn of events definitely caused some discontent in the Snakes but none of them showed it. Jörma was their almighty leader and everything they aspired to be, they would rather die than cause her to be upset. If she wanted to ‘waste’ their hard earned resources then so be it.

But the wives and guards that were sent to go with Drako were ecstatic, especially the wives. They were the ones that would enjoy the resources with him after all. On top of that, they were curious about the babies that Drako would grant them.

As for the territory in the Eastern Forest, Jörma gave it up because it was furthest away from the Dragons. She wanted Drako to recuperate in safety, she also knew that he had friends there.

Naturally, the happiest of them all was Drako, who’s reverence in his big sister actually increased. Something that was now very hard to accomplish because of his powerful bloodline and innate arrogance.

Never in his life would he forget this gesture. In his heart, Jörma was number 1.

90 years full of bloody wars passed and Drako had become a Stage 1 Seeking Beast.

...

An enormous serpentine body with 4 legs and antlers on its head could be seen flying above the clouds of the Eastern Forest.

It was the Divine Dragon, Drako.

And behind Drako was the many children that he had sired over the years. Beautiful Divine Dragons of different colours and sizes. They all obediently followed their progenitor with visible excitement in their eyes.

This was the first time they would be leaving the Eastern Forest after all.

As Drako crossed the border of the Eastern Forest, he too could no longer contain his excitement.

‘I wonder how big sis Jörma is doing now? Would she be happy when she sees me?’
