Million World Game

It didn't take long for the grandpa to pull himself from the water and again prostrate himself in front of me. His head was pressed into the ground and an alligator tail and some scale appear on his flesh. Seems like if he got wet he'd revert back to an alligator, that was interesting.

"I didn't know my place Mistress," his voice was humble as he spoke into the ground and I raised an eyebrow. This was rather interesting, these people seemed to worship me. All because this little bony dragon had said that I was his 'Master'.

I could only imagine, what they would have done if he said something else.

But this was great, I laughed internally. I shot a glance at Envy and he quickly walked behind me and stood there, his face twisted up into a devious smile. I could tell that he was pleased by this grandpa addressing me as Mistress.

There was something wrong with him.

"Stand up," I say as I kept rubbing Igna's back.

"Is there anything that we can do for you, Mistress?"The grandpa asks as he stands in front of me humbly.

I ignore him, as I glance around the rest of the pond area and see that the forty or so other animals are now also in the human form. They were all in different dresses and outfits, they all had darker caramel colored skin and dark hair.

They all looked relatively human, some of them more so than others. A good majority of them had the anatomy of their monster form. Was that a skill that allowed them to change their shape to humans?

I was sure that most of them were monsters. That meant that there had to be something that allowed them to transform into humans...

Glancing down at Igna, I decide to ask him. "What exactly are they?" His little black holes of eyes looked up at me.

"They're the same as me, but a little different, considering they aren't dragons. But what allows them to transform into full and semi-human's is a skill that called polymorph. You actually have a polymorph skill book, from killing me," he snorted.

I raised an eyebrow and looked towards the grandpa in front of me.

"Does that mean that I'm able to also transform into a dragon if I consume the skill book?" I ask him.

"No, the skill book that I dropped is for another monster to transform into a full or semi-human form," he explained as he shifted slightly in my arms.

However, it was a skill book for monsters.

For monsters...

Tilting my head down, I looked down at Royal and an idea popped into my head.

"Royal?" I ask and he looks at me with his golden amber eye.

A hiss leaves his mouth.

"What do you think about getting a human form?" I asked rubbing his head, another hiss leaves his mouth and he tilts his head to the side.

"I'll take that as a yes then," I laugh and he tightens around my body slightly.

"Mistress, what's brought you here?" The grandpa in front of me decided to speak up now, and I turned my attention to him. I suppose I should let him know the reason that I came here. He might be able to help me get it.

His green alligator eyes are looking straight at me. I clear my throat, "I came here to collect fruit, the [Fruit of a Thousand Tongues], do you know where it is?" I ask.

In a second a wedge appears above the fruit, [Fruit of a Thousand Tongues]. I was overjoyed, this was to easy, they were just going to give it to me without any fuss?

The grandpa plucks the fruit out of the hands of a young teenage girls hands. She was quite beautiful, her hair was a long raven black and her eyes were the most vibrant shade of blue I'd ever seen.

They reminded me of lighting they're a limpid blue. She had an hourglass curve, with a fox tail sticking out from the skirt that she had on, and her b.o.o.b.s are barely covered by a bando.

She turned her head and looked at me, and I noticed two fox ears that twisted atop her head. Her eyes drifted over my face and then they paused when they caught sight of Royal, her face completely changed when she looked at him.

Almost immediately she flushed a bright red and ducked her head retreating behind the grandpa. It seems that Royal, hadn't understood the look that the girl gave him, but he nonetheless looked at her with a curious expression.

I looked between Royal and the girl and I couldn't help but laugh a bit.

Was that the fabled love at first sight?

It couldn't be, could it? I felt a sly grin slide onto my face, she was pretty good looking.

"Mistress is this what you seek?" The grandpa asked as he stepped forward and held out the fruit in his hand. I gave him a small smile, and pick up the fruit, it didn't feel slimy like I expected it; it felt like any normal piece of fruit.

[One of the Eight Items from The Dryad's Scavenger Hunt Obtained]

I was surprised at the sudden notifications that popped up, but in front of me, another list of items appeared.

[Obtained: Fruit of a Thousand Tongues]

[Seed of the Immortal S.u.c.c.u.b.u.s]

[Tooth of an Undead]

[Amber Jelly of a Tigersnake]

[Floating Pixie Wings]

[A Scream of a Wind Wrath]

[Finger of an Immortal Child]

Well, looks like I'd taken a step in the right direction, I only have six more items, not counting the special item that she'd issued as an extra. Although, I had my doubts about some of the things on the list.

However, the list sounded like it could be a bit difficult to complete. They didn't sound like normal items, but then again when had anything that I've done this far fit under the category of normal?

I quickly willed the fruit into my ring and smiled at the grandpa. Well, at least I had this now.

"That is exactly what, I was looking for if you don't mind I would like some more of them," I tell him smiling. I should also try to get some for the twin witches, I also thought that this stuff had to be pretty good from the Dryad to issues a hunt for it.

I should snag some for myself.

A bright smile slides onto the old man's face as he quickly nods his head.

"It would be our p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to be of service to you, Mistress of the Dragon King," he bowed slightly.

As he bowed the other followed suit, Janus at this point had landed by his puppet and was looking around curiously, quite a few gears turned in his head as he surveyed these monster people.

I couldn't say that I blamed him in the least, this was a new experience for me. However, Igna didn't seem the least surprised by this act, he puffed his c.h.e.s.t out further at this reverent bowing.

Had I really slain a Dragon King?
