Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

343 A Wyvern's Egg



—–

As I followed Eleanora, Blood quickly hid in her shadows again, the enormous red wolf was not something that could easily go around, especially his aura and color made it evident he was dangerous, even at night where there were barely anybody around.

Eleanora quickly reached behind a house, as she looked over a small pile of dirt surrounded by grass. I looked back at her but she was glaring intensively into the ground.

“Eleanora, what is it?” I wondered.

“I can feel it…” She said. “Is there a monster down here? How has nobody realized this?”

“A monster?” I asked.

I quickly concentrated my own senses and then locked them into the ground down there. Suddenly, I felt the presence of something powerful, it was an incredibly strong vitality.

“There’s indeed something down there…”

I quickly summoned three Horned Rabbits of F Rank and told them to dig underground, the three horned rabbits immediately began digging down as the dirt began flying over the air. There was indeed a hole in here that was just recently made and filled with dirt, was there a monster hiding below?

“Huh?”

“This is…”

However, instead of a monster, there was…

“An egg?!” Eleanora asked in surprise.

“Why’s there an egg in here?” I wondered.

I quickly dug out the rest of the dirt and took out the egg, which had roughly the size of thirty centimeters. It was not white, but red and covered on brown spots. Inside of it, I was able to sense a strong vitality.

It was obvious what this was.

“This is the Lesser Wyvern Egg…” I said.

“Eh? So that was what it was giving such a strong vitality…” Eleanora said. “Wait, how come it just ended dug underground?”

“Hm… We should better go to our underground hideout before anyone spots us first.” I said, quickly covering the hole with dirt again and running away.

When we reached my small underground hideout, I placed the egg over a pile of hay. The vitality within it was growing weaker by the second as the egg grew colder, it was probably going to die in a few more hours if it stayed underground, with barely any oxygen to take. This underground hideout is well ventilated, so it should be fine.

“This egg must have been of the Wyvern that came to attack us, the house was also very close to the former home of the Chief… This means that the wyvern attack was provoked by somebody.” Eleanora quickly realized.

“Indeed. I am glad you could realize it by yourself.” I said. “I had the same thing in mind. Somebody must have brought the egg here and planned the wyvern’s attack, probably thinking the wyvern would wipe out the entire village… this feels like a revenge attempt. The wyvern would had been able to probably set ablaze the entire place if it wasn’t stopped.”

“It would had never been able to find her egg because it was underground… of course.” Sighed Eleanora. “But its scent might had remained, enough to make the wyvern attack everywhere trying to find her egg.”

“So this egg is an orphan.” I said while touching the eggshell, it was incredibly hard, as hard as stone. It wasn’t something that could be easily shattered, even if I grabbed the egg and hit it into the floor, it might not easily gain cracks.

“Who would had brought it here?” Wondered Eleanora.

“Probably… this might had been a desperate attempt to wipe out the village with the Duke in it… by the cult of the Follower of Demons, the same ones that provoked the entire Demon War incident and even raised a Demon General… Well, it failed for now. Maybe this was their last attempt, as it seems very far-fetched. I doubt thy can replicate it without taking so many risks.” I wondered.

“Huh… Perhaps we should try to seek more clues about them. Who knows who might be lurking around?” Wondered Eleanora.

“Good point… But for now, what do we do with this?” I sighed.

“Maybe omelet?” She wondered.

“It would be a waste to eat it. Also, the fetus is already formed, so it doesn’t have much yolk.” I said. “I suppose… we could raise it on our own and tame it.”

“Tame a wyvern?” Eleanora asked. “That sounds… great! The problem is how are you going to get it accepted though?”

“I can just say it is a Familiar in the future… Maybe. For now we’ll bring him out occasionally, although it is just developing, which might take a long time to hatch.” I said, quickly walking towards the egg and touching it. “However, there’s a special method that can ensure a beast’s obedience when they hatch aside from raising them, if we do a Blood Contract with it while it is still inside the egg…”

“But wouldn’t that be dangerous?” Eleanora wondered.

“Indeed, it would be dangerous, but the benefits would be amazing. Wyverns are Lesser Dragons and have the potential to evolve into True Dragons if raised well. A Blood Contract would also help me gain a bit of its power for my own… For now we can’t make that spirit orb into a familiar, but having a tamed Wyvern wouldn’t be so bad…” I said, caressing the egg gently.

“Then it is decided…!” Eleanora said with excitement.

“Let’s do the contract together then…” I said. It was possible to use Skills from a Spirit at the same time as them through the Master and Spirit connection, so I quickly decided to activate [Blood Enslavement Contract] and pour my own blood into the egg.

The drop of blood hit the egg as it suddenly began to spread out, generating many runes around which began glowing bright red. The egg quickly turned as red as the crimson blood I poured over it, gaining a menacing aura.

FLASH!

“It is… a success!” Said Eleanora. “Though I don’t know what it might evolve into…”

“We’ll see once it hatches, but it will surely be of great use.” I said with a smile.
