The darkness surrounded the whole forest. In the moonlight, a six-meter creature could be seen moving slowly. It has a majestic Dragon head and a trident-shaped tail. Its body is filled with shades of green and brown. If one looked closely, they would find multiple shadow creatures carrying this Beast. They continued moving it until they reached a cave.
After putting the Beast there, the Shadows dissipated and scattered nearby to guard this place. Two figures could be seen inside the cave: A boy and a girl. They were looking at the creature. The girl asked, "It looks to be on the brink of death; what should we do?"
The boy replied, "No need to worry; feed it some potion and Elixirs containing wood elements. It will recover in no time. You must be with him to win his trust for some days."
He then took out a silver claw and some ink and inscribed a Hybrid Rune on the unconscious creature. It took some time, but he was able to do it. He inscribed it in a place that would be hard to notice. After finishing it, he asked Kajal to sit down.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe asked her to reveal some part of her back; he was going to inscribe a Rune on it. "I don't want any tattoos," said Kajal as her face and ears turned red.
"It is necessary for the Rune on the Beast to work. We don't have much time left," said Rishi.
"Will it hurt?" asked Kajal.
"It will, but it will not be much," he replied. After some time, she revealed her back. Rishi looked at her bare back, and his face also started to become red, but he bit his tongue and focused. He first covered her back with a layer of Shadow Energy before he started to inscribe the Rune carefully.
He had taken extra time to make the Rune look more beautiful. The place he chose was the center of her back. It took him half an hour to complete it. After he was done, he looked back and asked her to cover herself. After everything was ready, Rishi activated the Runes and connected them with each other.
Kajal was surprised the moment it activated; she felt like she could understand the Beast a lot more. She could sense its emotions and understand them even more. She felt as if she were very close to him. She started feeding him and taking care of him.
Everything now depended on her. If she could not get close to the Beast and contract him, then it would be her fault. She sat down and started feeling the emotions of the Beast and understanding him more.
After some time, the body of the Beast shook. It slowly opened its eyes and found it was in a strange place. At first, it wanted to struggle, but when its eyes shifted toward the girl before him, he felt a close connection with her. He instantly remembered that she was the one who saved him.
Kajal started taking care of him, feeding him potions and food, and applying medicine to his wounds. The Beast was surprised to receive such care; it loosened his guard and decided to rest. Kajal approached it and touched it from close range. It looked even more beautiful from close range.

In the place where the Lizardman tribe once resided, A strange creature appeared with bat-like wings. It was surveying the area. It was about to leave when an arrow shining in violet hit its neck, and it fell. Strange Shadow creatures appeared and captured the blue-colored, thin lizardman riding it.
Rishi was busy with his research and was looking for more solutions. He had already implemented the previous ideas. He had put the corpse of the Raptor Rider in hot water filled with the blood of other Beasts and Elixirs and inscribed runes all over it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe felt like he was now creating some zombie or Undead, but the process didn't matter to him; the result was more important. If he was ready to use a demonic ritual, then doing other such things was not a big deal for him. He was busy when he saw a Shadow appear near him and explain something to him.
"Oh, it looks like the Lizardman of Swamp has become suspicious. Bring that Lizardman Rider here and increase the security of that place. Deploy all the Shadow Archers there and ask them to always be alert. Also, send the priest to me; I have a mission for him."
After something like the blue-colored, thin lizardman was brought to him, Rishi didn't waste even a second and started prying on his memories. When he did it, he discovered many things that he was curious about, including that their rune-inscribing method was similar.
They stole eggs from the wyvern lairs. Many men in the tribe sacrificed their lives to bring back some eggs. He also got to know the location of some wyvern lairs from his memories and learned a lot about their priest. The biggest surprise was that she had become suspicious of the situation of the Forest Lizardman tribe.
After going through everything, Rishi discovered a lot of their secrets. The priest appeared after some time. Rishi explained everything to him and ordered him to start ambushing the Skinks Lizardman Tribe today. He can't let them have a moment of peace.
The fire in the eyes of the silent priest increased as if it were waiting for the moment. It gathered the Shadow Army and started moving toward the Swamp Area. It would attack the Skiniks tribe and turn them into Shadow Soldiers. After becoming a shadow soldier, the priest met a being who guided and changed him.
He decided to become the priest of the Shadow Temple. He was going to convince the priest of the Skinks that she should join him. Both the Saurus and Skink tribes are selfish; they would never let them be together. Why should they be loyal to them if they can never be together? Why don't they serve someone who is willing to help them unite?
This was his initial reason, but when he noticed how strong he was becoming, He was even more convinced. He didn't particularly have any hatred toward Rishi; he was already dead inside. He was just a moving corpse that was not able to leave this world because it was tied to so many responsibilities. Becoming a shadow creature gave him another meaning.
He could live again and do what he wanted. He had responsibilities, but they didn't burden him; he was enjoying his time instead of mourning because he was dying. He was not the only one with such thoughts; some other lizardmen realized after turning into Shadow Creatures that they were now stronger.
The being hidden in the shadows was helping them turn into something that was real and alive. They were feeling like they were going through a cycle of rebirth. This process was slow and would take time, but unlike their previous selves, they now had a lot of time.
