3118 Building Up (Part 2)

He was the only Awakened in the Organization and the only person who knew the life forces of the hybrids in general and Zoreth's in particular like the back of his hand.

Vastor had met the Shadow Dragon back when she still called herself Xenagrosh the Final Smile. She was the co-founder of the Organization and the first Eldritch to have successfully merged with her clone.

The Master had helped her during that fight and at every step of the way that had brough Xenagrosh closer to resurrecting, giving her back her identity as Zoreth. Even though she was much older and powerful than him, it had been Vastor taking care of Zoreth like a child since she had regained her human body.

Their relationship ran deeper than those he had with the other members of the Organization. Even more after the Master had used Zoreth's tissues to craft his Abomination core and then implanted his tissues inside her body to help her life forces to fuse.

Zoreth was a troll-Eldritch hybrid while Vastor had unlocked Decay and Chaos wings and eyes, making the Master and the Shadow Dragon almost a perfect match.

Once the final drop of the precious liquid was drained, the white crystal lid of the Madness opened up. The members of the Organization called it nutrients fluid, but it was the condensed essence of the life forces of hundreds of people.

The liquid fed the body while the mana crystals fueled Zoreth's fallen cores, ensuring that hunger wouldn't compromise any step of the procedure.

The human form of the Shadow Dragon walked out of the Madness, her appearance no different from when she had entered it yet she felt like a different person.

"Are you alright, Zor? Any pain or discomfort?" Bytra asked as she summoned Vastor via the communication amulet.

"Pain, no. Discomfort, yes, Byt." Xenagrosh performed a light stretching to get a feel of her invigorated muscles and test the flexibility of her renewed body. "But don't worry, it's not a bad feeling."

With each movement she performed, she let her mana flood every fiber of her being and sensed the subtle changes in her physiology.

"How can it not be a bad sign?" The Raiju asked.

"I don't feel like there's something wrong with me, Byt. More like that something is… off." The Shadow Dragon pondered how to express it with words for a bit. "Like I'm standing on the threshold of something.

"That I need just one more step to get in but I can't lift my feet for the life of me. Heck, I can't even let myself fall forward, if you know what I mean."

"I'm sorry, I don't." Bytra shook her head and crossed her fingers for good luck. "There you are, Master. Please, check on Zor. She says she feels off."

"First, don't call me Master. It's just the three of us here." Zogar Vastor was a short man in his mid-sixties barely over 1.55 meters (5'1") tall.

His once bald head was now covered in thick and well-groomed hair arranged in the latest fashion for men of his social stature. The Master's waxed handlebar mustaches had turned black as well, giving him a younger look.

After becoming interim Headmaster and then turning himself into a human-Abomination hybrid, he had slimmed down quite a bit. Vastor still looked more like a loving grandpa than a warrior, but his renewed vitality and hair gave him a fierce look despite his well-fed appearance.

Under his bitter countenance, lay the only Highmaster of Vastor's generation and the unsung god of the battlefield of the Griffon Kingdom.

"Second, put on some clothes, dammit! I'm a healer, not a doctor. I do not need to see you naked." The Master turned around and threw Zoreth her Bookwyrm armor. _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}
