After Draco had successfully tamed all 12 of the newly hatched Dragons, he cast his attention to the full details of his Legendary Class.

[End Of Information]

After calmly reading through the list, Draco had a complex expression on his face.

He truly had been granted incredible power, and his potential was nearly endless. As long as he kept Leveling Up, his body would continue to grow strong—even to the point of rivaling and even surpassing Dragons.

He also had the unmatched power to command Dragons.

That was incredible!

He had never, for once, underappreciated this power. Throughout history, many had tried to control the Spawns of Evil, and while they had results in certain areas, the ease of control was not even comparable to his.

Plus, their methods had some flaws that could not be overlooked.

'Speaking of flaws, though… the only stain on the incredible power I currently possess is the Restrictions that come with my class.'

Even though there were only three of them, Draco couldn't help but feel stifled by them. He also felt like the stronger he became, the more difficult they would make life for him—especially when he started working as an official Dragon Hunter.

But what could he do about them? For now, the answer was nothing.

'The Privileges are tied to the Restrictions. They balance each other well… and as long as I have this Legendary Dragon Tamer Class… it seems I can't escape them.'

Draco calmly quelled the dissatisfaction in his heart and let out a loud sigh before focusing more on his gains.

His first order of business was filling the remaining three slots for Captured Dragons.

He chose three more water Dragons, though they were all Rank 1. All the Rank 2 had perished during the fight with Verdantia, leaving only about ten injured Water Dragons. They were weak and not sufficient to satiate him, but for now… they would do.

'There are no other candidates, anyway…' Draco smiled. 'Besides, I can always expel them if I find a better Dragon.'

Either way, there was no loss in keeping them for now.

'I currently have five Breaths at my disposal: [Let There Be Light], [Into The Shadows], [Water Threads], [Splash]... and my newest addition from Verdantia, [Verdant Breath Of Life].'

He had used all but the last Breath, so he quickly decided to test it out.

Surprisingly, it was exactly what he currently needed.

'A healing Breath! That's very rare!'

[Verdant Breath of Life] allowed him to rapidly recover from exhaustion, giving him near limitless stamina. It also had regenerative properties, enough to restore lost limbs so long as he had enough Essence.

It was an incredible ability—most likely the best one he currently had at his disposal.

'Healing Breaths of this level are very rare, even among the top Dragon Hunters.' He glanced at Verdantia with a more favorable impression, a glimmer of light flashing in his azure eyes.

He could now understand how she was able to recover so quickly from injuries despite her vulnerable state.

Her healing speed was too unreal, even for Dragons.

'I initially thought that it was just her natural ability, and that her [Breath] had to do with vine control, but it seems like the opposite is true. Manipulation of vines is her natural ability, while her Breath is the rapid regeneration.' Draco clenched his fist in excitement.

This new power was sure to come in handy.

In fact, he was already utilizing it to heal all of his current injuries, and while the speed was nowhere near as impressive as Verdantia's, he was making considerable progress.

Unfortunately, he could also see how quickly his Essence was getting drained.

'Before, it was [Into The Shadows] that drained the most Essence, but it turns out we have a new champion in that department.'

Even with this flaw, Draco was glad to have the Breath.

It made up for his shortcomings, and with it, he wouldn't have to worry about long-drawn battles.

'I'll also be able to take more risks and get more rewards…'

Right as he was processing his gains, he also noticed something a short distance from him.

It involved Nyx.

'Oh? Is it finally happening?' Draco's eyes flashed with curiosity as he watched the still Nyx start to glow inside the lake. Her darkened body glimmered under the faint glow of Essence that emanated from the waters surrounding her.

Something was happening to her—and it was good.

[All Conditions Have Been Reached]

{Your Rank 1 Nightcrawler, Nyx, is now able to advance to Rank 2. Will you allow this?}

As crazy as Draco could get, he was not a madman!

He immediately accepted it.

VWUUUSH!

Bright lights rose from Nyx as she shed her old scales and grew in size. Her body grew more spikes, and horns rose from the tips of her head. She became more slender, but her mass increased considerably.

In no time at all, she had grown to the size of a little over four meters.

This was a big jump from three meters!

[Advancement Successful!]

<Nyx has now become a Rank 2 Nightcrawler>

<Nyx has now awakened a Breath [Dark Fart]>

<Nyx has grown considerably stronger>

Drao saw all of this and nodded slowly.

'I was curious to see if my Dragons could Rank Up the same way I Level Up, so I commanded Nyx to join the battle earlier and kill as many Water Dragons as possible. Preto protected her, so she didn't suffer any major injuries during that period.'

After a while, he had gotten an indication that she was going to grow.

To ensure the process wouldn't be stalled, he also ensured she remained in the pool and absorbed as much Essence as she could.

Just as he expected, that seemed to be the trigger!

'My Dragons can grow stronger as long as they slay other Dragons and absorb sufficient Essence!'

Once again, Draco had gained something valuable in this venture.
