BXBX NOVEL Chapter 174 Moku's Possessiveness
Starting from the smooth outer skin of the sylph it slowly begins to dry and fall off. Like a snake changing its skin, Nerphyl re-emerged with a new, stronger skin. But this process occurs repeatedly. And every time new skin appears it will become stronger and thicker until Nerphyl\'s body is filled with very thick wrinkles.
Then Nerphyl felt her flesh as if it was being immersed in boiling oil. Nerphyl\'s flesh melted and then solidified again, over and over again until it almost drove Nerphyl mad. But she still held it.
The flesh thickens and becomes firmer. As was the case with the skin, the flesh that exceeded the bones became heaped up and bloated Nerphyl\'s body. Until the wrinkles on the skin disappear due to being buried by more and more flesh.
Then the next process is the bone. The bones all over her body seemed to be crushed into pieces and then put back together to become stronger and denser. As a result, Nerphyl\'s body slowly grew bigger. The sylph queen who was only the size of a palm gradually started to grow until now she was as big as a five-year-old human child.
This process sounds quite long but happens so fast that Nerphyl doesn\'t know which pain comes first. Her brain is already numb due to this pain. Until she no longer felt it due to being used to it.
But Nerphyl could not breathe a sigh of relief before her internal organs began to change. The heart, lungs, spleen, liver, brain, etc all get bigger at one time. As if there was a whirlpool inside her body, Nerphyl felt like every internal organ had a mind of its own and they were all having a dance party which quickly turned into a fight.
Nerphyl couldn\'t properly describe it but all she felt was nausea mixed with pain. Pain that made her reconsider doing Vithaen Possession Art. But she can\'t go back in time, everything has already happened and the process of evolution cannot be stopped.
Nerphyl didn\'t know how much time had passed but by now her body had stopped growing. She currently had a body that was as tall as a mature woman\'s. Even though she was not as tall as Nevare who transformed into Valkarye, Nerphyl felt that her body was quite tall.
The final phase of her transformation was mastering the mana organs within the Mutated Tiger\'s body. This is the most important process of the Vithaen Possession Art, without the mana organ, Nerphyl will be like an ordinary woman. But even worse, she would never be able to use mana. If that happened then the entire Vithaen Possession Art would become useless as she would only end up getting bigger in the end.
Nerphyl entered Mutated Tiger\'s consciousness even deeper. She knew where the Mutated Tiger\'s mana organs were located after she mastered this mutated animal\'s body. As Moku said Mutated Tiger\'s mana organs are skeletons.
How to use it and what power Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton had, Nerphyl had no idea. Moku defeats Mutated Tiger in an instant leaving her no time to use its mana organs. But this is not a problem for Nerphyl because once she has mastered it, Nerphyl will automatically know what the power of Mutated Tiger\'s mana organ is.
When she entered the Mutated Tiger\'s consciousness deeper, Nerphyl saw a four-legged animal skeleton that was being chained by green energy. Nerphyl knew that this green energy was Moku\'s dragon prana so she was not surprised. However, she was shocked when she saw that the Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton was still struggling to escape the dragon prana chain.
But every time the Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton struggled, the dragon prana chain became stronger and thicker. The mana in the Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton was sucked into the dragon prana chain making it stronger. Seeing the fate of Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton Nerphyl got goosebumps.
Mana for mana species is a source of power even every religion in the Meer Continent worships mana. Even though those beliefs have different names and forms of gods, those are just differences in how intelligent beings perceive mana.
Even the battle between the wood elves and the night elves was a ridiculous war because in the end, both groups worshiped mana which was shaped like a tree. The only difference is that for wood elves, the tree of life is an embodiment of mana that comes from the top of the tree (leaves, flowers, and fruit) while for night elves, Yggdrasil is an embodiment of mana that comes from the bottom of the tree (root).
Those who don\'t understand this ideological battle will see that wood elves and night elves hate each other for ridiculous things. But for the two elven races, this was a huge difference. However, after the war between species, they put these differences aside and the two races were able to live side by side.
But the mana that all the mana species worship is currently just food for the dragon prana. Nerphyl didn\'t know what actually happened to the two energies but she knew that dragon prana was much stronger than mana. That\'s why if the whereabouts of asuras are known by mana species, they will not stop hunting for asuras until there are none left.
Nerphyl shuddered at the thought of how the entire world hunted monsters just because there was a possibility that orcs, a race of monsters, could evolve into asuras. But she wasn\'t too worried about that, because even without asuras, monsters were still pests to mana species.
Nerphyl approached Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton but just as she was about to touch it, dragon prana chains suddenly shackled her hands. Nerphyl gasped in surprise and reflexively wanted to withdraw her hand from the dragon prana chain but before she could do so, a voice entered her mind.
"Nerphyl, My wife, if you hear this then it means you have reached the last stage of the Vithaen Possession Art and you only need to master the Mutated Tiger\'s mana organ to become a new, stronger being. Even so, I\'m worried if you directly touch Mutated Tiger\'s mana organ, you will be affected by mana consciousness." Moku\'s voice sounded in Nerphyl\'s mind causing her body to relax. Nerphyl realized that Moku also knew that mana was not just a random energy that moves but has a consciousness of its own.
Moku realized this when he fought Deak\'s treants. At that time he succeeded in activating the Bhimasuta Armor and the dragon prana within his body exploded with great force. Moku sensed that the mana in the world was frightened by the presence of dragon prana. By borrowing the treants\' bodies, mana controls them to destroy Moku using all the mana in the treants\' bodies.
At first, Moku only suspected that mana had its own consciousness but his suspicions turned into certainty after seeing how mana attacked the evolving Boku and Goku. Mana seemed to be terrified and in a state of crisis, all the mana within hundreds of kilometers radius gathered to destroy Boku and Goku.
Nerphyl again heard Moku\'s voice in her mind "I\'m afraid, if you absorb Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton directly then mana will control yourself to attack the asura. So in the end the two of us will cross paths. That\'s why I left the dragon prana chain and left a bit of my will in it to send you this message"
Nerphyl took a deep breath, she almost got trapped by mana and was used as a borrowed knife to kill her own husband. If that happened then the Wilwatikta Kingdom that they built would be destroyed from the inside by itself. Moku was really very careful with his plan, not only leaving Mak Lampir to take the sin of greed to rule from the monsters\' bodies, he also left a dragon prana chain to ensure that no monsters would betray him.
Moku\'s voice was heard again "Use the dragon prana chain to absorb Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton. With the dragon prana chain, you will not only be released from mana shackles but you will also gain pure power that is completely yours. Next, you no longer have to submit to mana but you can make mana as your food. Just like myself and other asuras." then Moku\'s will disappeared from Nerphyl\'s mind.
Nerphyl smiled, she wasn\'t so stupid as to think that Moku really didn\'t leave another shackle for her. Moku\'s possessiveness is well-known among his wives. If Moku can chain his wife then he will chain his wives to ensure that his wives will never run away from him.
If Nerphyl absorbed Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton using dragon prana chain then it would be the same as she directly state that she was declaring war against mana. That way, Nerphyl would have no other path but to continue to be Moku\'s wife and support him against mana.
Even so, Nerphyl didn\'t mind, after all, Moku\'s possessiveness showed how much he feared losing his wives. Nerphyl smiled and gripped the dragon prana chain tighter. She started to absorb the Mutated Tiger\'s skeleton through the dragon prana chain.
