Kor Town had now become a playground for monsters, and the residents either had become their food or had fled elsewhere.

Since the town itself had little value and there were dragon disasters nearby, the senior members of Lait Kingdom didn’t even bother to send anyone when they heard the news.

Meanwhile, Otto, the main culprit of all this chaos, had just opened his eyes in a dark cave.

He had found the cave two days ago and casually killed a huge bear that was inside.

He left the bear meat and some honey from the cave for Sofia as food and then devoured the half-crippled Chimera.

Swallowing an entire mature Chimera brought great assistance to him, also, as expected, it put him into a brief slumber.

After waking up, Otto’s appearance underwent a huge change. Most notably, a pair of dragon wings finally grew from his back.

Upon closer examination, they were almost identical to the wings on the Chimera, except for the color of the scales. He had acquired the flying ability from the chimera.

Of course, there was also Flame Breath. He could vaguely feel that a new organ had appeared around his lungs, containing a massive amount of energy.

His size increased by nearly a meter, making him look like a juvenile red dragon instead of a silver one, except for the color of his scales.

“Big Dragon, you’re awake!”

As soon as Sofia noticed that Otto had awoken, she immediately ran over, jumped up, and wrapped her arms tightly around his neck. Her little feet hung in the air, which was extremely cute.

However, both of them were filthy, and they hadn’t had a chance to take a bath yet.

During Otto’s slumber, Sofia had simply used a rag to clean the bits of meat and blood off his body.

Although the cave was only on the outskirts of Nolan Forest, it was still filled with various ferocious beasts and monsters.

Sofia dared not venture out alone, and Otto had strictly forbidden her to do so before he fell into a deep sleep.

The reputation of the dead bear kept other beasts and monsters away from the cave for the time being.

As Otto fully awoke, his various abilities began to function again, but the feedback from the Wild Beast Heart left him bewildered.

Because this scouting ability showed that the half-elf girl hugging him tightly posed a certain threat to him.

Compared to an adult dire wolf, the seemingly harmless little girl appeared to have a higher level of threat.

“What’s going on? It wasn’t like this back in Kor Town…”

Otto looked puzzled, but he understood when he looked at the magic wand in Sofia’s hand, as even though she looked irresistibly adorable, she didn’t seem to have an extraordinary fighting ability.

This was the loot obtained from the two wizards crushed to death by the stone wall created by Otto. The other magic wand was smashed along with its owner by the wall.

In addition, there was an old magic book containing many ordinary spells.

These items were of no help to Otto, but Sofia seemed quite interested in them and was overjoyed to find such items.

With this in mind, Otto tentatively asked, “Sofia, have you learned magic?”

“Yes!”

Sofia released her hold on Otto and gripped the shabby magic wand, pointing it toward the ground at the cave entrance: “Big Dragon, watch this!”Magic elements gathered on her worn magic wand, quickly forming a fireball about the size of an adult’s fist.

The scorching high temperature emanated from the surface of the fireball, and Sofia gently waved her wand. The fireball traced a crimson trajectory in the air, smashing into the ground at the cave entrance and creating a shallow pit.

The damage wasn’t insignificant; it was probably no worse – even stronger – than the spells cast by Bald Reby’s two intrepid magicians earlier.

Before Otto could even be astonished, Sofia continued waving her wand and letting loose other spells like freezing rays and wind blades, like a miniature magic fort.

Little Sofia, with hands on hips and a proud smile, looked like she wanted to be praised.

With his mouth agape, Otto stared in dumbfounded disbelief as his jaw nearly dropped to the floor.

In just two days, this little girl had learned all the spells in the grimoire and to great effect.

“Imp… impressive!”

Finally, Otto had no choice but to praise Sofia. However, she was dissatisfied with his meager compliments and turned away, pouting.

Not to be outdone, Otto flipped through the worn grimoire, attempting to learn something for himself. But he quickly gave up after failing to grasp even the most basic spells.

He understood the contents of the book and the theory behind the spells but couldn’t muster up so much as a fart, let alone a fireball.

Sofia looked at Otto with curiosity, then burst into laughter when she discovered he was trying to learn spells.

“Big Dragon, this book is meant for humanoid races to learn from! Besides, the magic elements in the air don’t seem to want to get anywhere near you!”

Now dawning upon Otto, he realized he didn’t have even the slightest affinity for magic.

With a gloomy mood, Otto lay on the ground, silently gnawing on bear meat.

Sofia’s appetite was small, so she left the bear meat untouched, preferring to eat fruits and honey collected by the bear. The leftovers went to Otto.

Devouring the bear didn’t provide Otto with any useful abilities, primarily because he already possessed them, gained from consuming other creatures.

It seemed the mysterious orb’s devouring ability had a small intelligence. If he consumed more of the same power, it would select the best option and progress.

Seeing Otto feeling down, Sofia cheerfully climbed onto his neck and pressed her face against Otto’s slate-blue scales, letting out a clear, tinkling laugh.

“Cheer up! I’ll work even harder to learn magic, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to learn it! I’ll be able to help you!”

Sofia appeared to have come to life since leaving Kor Town. Maybe because they had left a place that made her unhappy or learning magic to help Otto.

It touched Otto deeply!

“We will be together forever and ever…”

Despite trying to make his voice gentler, it still came out quite deep, sounding like a powerful boss monster in some underground dungeon.

However, Sofia was pleased by it, happily hugging Otto and calling him “Big Dragon,” making his heart melt.

Although he told her she could call him Otto instead, she still preferred to refer to him as “Big Dragon.”
