Chapter 726 The Might Of Blackie's Black Lightning
-----
A ray of black lightning suddenly hit the ground from the skies, as the sky had suddenly turned black with clouds for a slight second, everyone was suddenly terrified! The area where the lightning bolt hit was covered in dust, and from within it, a three-meter-big black goat emerged!
It was completely covered in black, shiny fur, and had many red jewels over his body, with enormous, spiraling black horns covered in jewels and black metal… and two eerie eyes looking into the depths of his adversaries' souls.
This was… Blackie after evolving!
"W-Wha…?! T-There's no way that's… the goat!" Hectarious couldn't help but stutter pathetically!
Blackie had changed a lot after evolving after all! He had become enormously tall, and his appearance was no longer a small and innocent-looking black goat, he had evolved into a powerful beast that could defeat many monsters with his mere horns, and if that wasn't enough… he had developed a new power which everybody saw today!
Black Lightning!
"T-That's Black Lightning?!"
"I had never seen such a beast before!"
"Incredible, to think there is a beast capable of wielding one of the ancient and forbidden elements that once brought chaos to the world eras ago…"
"That goat, don't some remember that it used to be smaller?"
"Arthurious' was the weakest and youngest prince, his monster was a small Black Goat! You're telling me that such a monster is that little goat?! It hasn't even been a year since the last time it was a small goat and now… it is a giant monster capable of wielding the ancient element?"
In the world of Gaia there were many ancient tales, eras where monster tamers battled for supremacy, although the current era had many Empires and Kingdoms connected in peace for mutual benefit, the past was filled with bloodshed and war.
Amongst the many tales of the past, there are the legendary elements, powerful elements created by the combination of existing ones. There was Phantom Fire, Burning Poison, Ying and Yang, and also, Black Lightning!
It was said that Black Lightning was wielded by a powerful entity, a gigantic Black Crow that was once owned by the ancient emperor of over a hundred nations that unified the entire world of Gaia below his might, he Black Lightning Emperor!
Because of this, the people was left completely speechless and falbergasted as they saw a mere child with a goat that had evolved the ability to wield the power of Black Lightning.
But if it wasn't because of Frank's wondrous Monster Pet Nursery, Blackie wouldn't had grown so fast. It was thanks to the nursery's various abilities that enhanced growth speed, and granted special skills and passive gain of skill proficiency that Blackie was able to grow into such a monster in this short period of time.
But the goat by himself also had an enormous potential, and it helped that Frank made him learn magic and skills from Spell Grimoires and Skill Books harvested from the dungeon. Like this, Frank was able to find out Blackie had affinity with thunder element and when it was fused with the Black Goat Race's innate affinity and control over darkness… Black Lightning was born.
<br/>It was actually all thanks to Frank, but it was still thanks to Arthurious for his bond that Blackie became strong and confident on himself, Frank gave the opportunities but Arthurious used them to grow his monster pet stronger.
The battle was about to begin and Hectarious was left completely shocked to the point he felt like having a stroke at any given moment now. The man was so speechless that he felt completely betrayed by his own self. He felt bitter in the inside, and wanted to vomit blood now.
His face looked as if he had just eaten a bitter bug.
"W-What the heck is this, Arthurious?! Where did you get this monster?! Are you cheating?! There's no way this is the Black Goat given to you! You cheater! Bring your actual monster! The rules state that we can only use one monster through this… Erm, family affair." Hectarious ended speaking at a very low tone of voice at the end of his speech as he realized he shouldn't be talking about the war for the throne so openly.
"Brother, this is Blackie, I have trained him and he grew stronger! But if it wasn't for Sir Frank and his amazing items that nourish a monster pet to their peak, it wouldn't had been possible to this extent!" Said Arthurious loudly, without realizing it, he ended giving Frank a lot of advertismenet. The crowd around the arena was surprised to hear his name, some of them had confused him, but now everyone realized the Frank that just fought before was the same owner of that very famous monster pet nursery that sold amazing items at very cheap prices!
"W-What? Wait! That Frank from before was the same…?!"
"Incredible! So the items he sells can even enhance small goats into such monster over a few months?!"
"His monster pet nursery also is enhanced with runes that nourish the growth of monster pets, so if you leave them a few days resting there, they'll come back stronger!"
"I-Is that even possible? What sort of Noble has such amazing wealth to sell his services so cheaply?"
"He's a benevolent mand and also an incredible monster pet trainer!"
"He defeated his enemy without even attacking it to boot…"
"So he and Arthurious are related… Everything makes sense now, he has the favor of the young prince!"
Frank's main body covered his face with his hoodie as he felt a bit embarrassed of receiving so much attention, all while Arthurious seemed to be boasting how amazing he was, and continued doing so for a while, only making Hectarious more angered.
"S-Shut the fuck up, Arthurious! I don't care about your stupid friend! T-That bastard and his whores offended me once, I remember him now! I'll beat the shit out of your pathetic beast and then I'll crush him afterwards…" Said Hectarious. "Don't underestimate me!"
