The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1068

Chapter 1068: Naga King?

The first of the Shaman Elders returned within a minute, pointing excitedly at a picture in a book that appeared to be an ancient book of Naga Fairytales.

{I found it. There was a Naga King. THE Naga King. He was a Legendary Rank hero from another world who saved the Naga race from the aggression of the Lizardfolk Warlord Sshithssal. Then he simply vanished.

I know it’s just a story, but it might be based on reality.

If there were a pure Royal Lineage, with both male and female Royals, then we really might have lost something important.} He blurted out before his body had even stopped swaying from the sudden stop.

Lotus nodded in satisfaction. She knew that her knowledge would be correct, even if she didn’t know the Naga that well.

[Remi, how are things going?] Karl asked.

[They’re doing some sort of ceremony to wake the Shaman Goddess so that I can be instated as a full Queen of the Naga.] Remi replied, distractedly.

Lotus pulled the edge of the book down so she could see it, then stole the ancient tome from the Shaman and turned it to face the group.

“Look, it’s that guy!”

She was right. That image was definitely of the Naga King in the Dungeon. Every detail was exact, so whoever had drawn it had seen him.

“I believe that the story was not quite what you expected. That drawing is exactly the same as the Naga King in the dungeon, right down to the markings on his head. So, I think that whoever wrote it had been there, and had made up the story afterward to explain what they had seen.”

{So, it’s real. It’s really real, and verified that a Naga King once existed.} The elder Shaman breathed quietly.

He was lost in thought, but the other Shamans waited for him, as they all had much to process before they said or did anything else.

Oddly, it was one of the servants who connected the dots first out of anyone.

{Master Solomon? If the young Queen was placed in a dungeon by the Gods, what will happen when the welcoming ceremony ends?} She whispered, but not quietly enough for Karl and the majority of the group to miss it.

The Shamans were immediately alarmed. How were they supposed to know that? What if the Goddess was upset that someone had brought her out? Worse, what if she sided with Queen Remi and turned on the Temple residents?

There was an ancient school of thought that the Dungeons were actually a preservation method, to remind people what the original members of the various cultures lived and looked like.

Had the other Shamans already informed her of the breeding program? Or had they wanted to wait until after she was initiated and the Goddess’ influence was stronger?

[The Shaman Goddess is really friendly. She says that there is a reverse scale to the Apocalypse spell, and Brother Hawk is going to hate it.] Remi cheered.

[So, their ritual worked?] Karl asked, while watching the Shamans silently conferring about the servant’s speculation.

[Yep, it worked well. It’s not done yet, though. She says I’m going to get a present.]

The Shaman Elders were looking nervous, and the Guild Leaders all gave Karl matching ‘This is about to get sketchy’ sorts of looks. But before anyone said anything, a surge of Divine power from the far side of the complex slammed into them.
