Chapter 3363 Less is More (Part 2)

Elina said nothing, losing herself in his warmth. At least until the peanut gallery started complaining about the interruption in their show and loudly at that.

"Tine! I get back to work." Raaz grumbled while Elina chuckled.

"It's the price of fame, dear." She watched him work together with the kids, appreciating his strong yet precise hands.

Raaz had kept his word and improved his skills with the help of Salaark's best

woodcarvers. When he was done, the coiled dragon figurine closely resembled the family insignia.

It was much more detailed and elegant than the one he had made for Aran years ago. "It's beautiful. Elina clapped her hands. "Once you take care of making the wings, claws, mouth, and scales more detailed it will be perf-"

Shargein grabbed one of the spare wooden pieces and started to carve it with the claws of his hands. His figurine took shape at a speed visible to the naked eye and in a little more than a minute, Raaz's dragon had an identical twin.

"You are very talented. Very good, Shargein. Raaz scratched the Wyrmling's neck, making him squirm with pleasure and puff his chest out with pride.

"To think that I spent years learning how to do it by myself and hours in the woodshop while he just needed to see me do it once.' He actually thought. 'Life really is unfair! Usually, Dragon Eyes were useless in learning a physical skill. Unless, of course, one had inherited part of Leegaain's intellect and part of Salaark's talent for craftmanship.

Where Raaz only saw a line in the wood, Shargein saw its angle, depth, and the applied force necessary to obtain it. Where Elina saw the finished work, Shargein saw numbers and proportions.

He repeated all of Raaz's movements in his mind, studying how to replicate and even improve on them.

"Let's see what you guys can do." Raaz gave Elysia and Valeron one piece of wood each. The babies shapeshifted into their Divine Beast form and started clawing away.

"Is it me or do they look like cats on furniture?" He asked as Elysia and Valeron scratched away small chunks of wood with their claws.

"I guess this confirms neither of them has Dragon Eyes. Elina shrugged. "Which is a good thing. Sometimes, less is more."

"What do you mean?" Raaz asked.

"Dear, they are hybrids who will grow up in a world of humans." She replied. "Their life is already bound to be hard. Imagine if they could also breeze through everything just by watching a task being performed once.

"Not only would it make the other kids resent them even more, it would also be a curse that keeps them from relating to humans. Elysia and Valeron are much smarter than the average baby already.

"If they keep up like this, by Aran's age they'll think they live in a world of goldfish and that they are the only intelligent humans on Mogar."

A few days later.

Lith and Trion had started taking part in the woodcarving lesson with Raaz, but much to everyone's dismay, Shargein ran circles around all of them, master woodcarvers included.

"Yes, you are right. This way is much better." Murong Ashee had dedicated thirty years to his profession.
