Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System
Chapter 250 - The Ancient Beast-----
The mama frog looked into the nest where she had left her egg, her beloved egg which she had been raising this entire time, for hundreds of years… only to end up with nothing there.
The egg she could swear to have seen right here was gone! Completely gone! If there was someone with the power to steal it, she would had already sensed its powerful presence and had rushed back in an instant, but the thief had some kind of ability… some kind of ability that allowed it to actually hide its presence and conceal itself to not be easily discerned by her.
While she distracted herself stupidly with some passerby, this malicious egg thief came out of nowhere and stole her precious little egg…! The one she had been raising and taking care for so long. The one she always groomed with her long tongue, so no parasites or algae were to grow over it, she always kept it with her own company, and in the beautiful full moon nights, she sang, croaking to her young to have good sleep.
The mother frog who had lived for thousands of years suddenly recalled the faint memories within her mind. She was an entity that had lived for thousands of years if not even millions. Her power was immense but that wasn't without growing naturally as she was part of a race of beasts of ancient ages within this world, she was one of the last survivors, in fact.
Recalling the past eras was painful for her, despite not possesing advanced intelligence like humans or the Saphibians or Frog-kin, she had strong emotions within her mind, such a big and millenary creature wouldn't live this long without actually gathering a lot of intelligence and emotions.
Sine the Great Catastrophe that hit this planet approximately a million years, extinguishing most of the megafauna including her race of gigantic frogs, she was left as one of the last of her kind, which was hidden by her own family through their very bodies from the deadly impact of this catastrophe.
She recalled waking up after the explosion that caused this event, and finding her family dead, charred alive by the intensity of this blazing explosion, her little body survived as she was protected by her big brother, her mother and her father… only to be left as the last one standing.
She wasn't able to cry, but deep inside she had cried, the sorrow, loneliness, and desperation of the situation had made her completely heartbroken, traumatizing her young mind and leaving her desolate in this wasteland after the great catastrophe… she had to survive on her own, however she could. Her powers had yet to develop completely as she needed to grow bigger for that, and many times she was on the verge of death as she battled and survived against the monstrous Void and Chaotic Beasts that surged from this catastrophe that had fallen in the planet of the past.
She was always alone, without anyone of her kin to be with, she ended growing alone and desolate, bitter with life for being so unfair with everything, even as strong as she grew, she never could find a mate to reproduce and keep on the lineage of giant frogs going, this millenary race of beautiful and gargantuan titans of the swamps… she was the last of their kin, and their kin would die with her.
Feeling sorrowful that she wasn't able to fulfill her innermost and natural desire of reproduction, she cried in loneliness every night, before the moonlight, as she looked at the world that ended contaminated and destroyed slowly recover back as she noticed the flows of energy and mana that the world itself exuded to nourish it with its power.
She recalled that her race was once called by some of the Cosmic Walkers that had once visited them in peace as the "guardians of the world", they were a blessed race of titans that protected this planet… but against this catastrophe, they were unable to do anything.
As the last of her kin, despite the hardships, and suffering that this planet had brought to her, she slowly grew more and more in love with her environment as she slowly saw it grow back to how beautiful and green it once was.
She tried to protect it and guarded its sanctuaries, letting the nature and life grow back while vanquishing the evil that the mysterious and intriguing catastrophe had brought to this world.
Some time passed, as a sudden wave of Universal Essence crossed across the entirety of this area of the Universe, suddenly, she sensed some power surging within her as she gained the Universal Origin Records System, and out of nowhere, the new Skill [Egg-Laying] was created for her.
As if it were a heavenly miracle, she suddenly acquired the power to lay a single egg at a time without the necessity of a mate. This meant that she could finally keep on going her race, it was as if the entire Universe had smiled at her for her efforts and rewarded her with the ability to bring her species back once more from almost extinction…
She had quickly and happily laid an egg since then, but many times many unfortunate things happened, and each of her eggs was suddenly eaten or stolen to only die out at the end. She was constantly heartbroken but also beaten down by her own stupidity and her lack of awareness. Through these suffering events she slowly grew incredibly cautious and fiercer than ever before, she became an incredible careful mother to her egg, and now, she finally had an egg which she had kept safe for very long… but now… it was stolen.
The frustration, sorrow, and anger that all the other eggs she had which were lost in time brought to her made her go mad. The gigantic frog mother roared angrily at the skies; her eyes turned crimson red as her entire body exuded a tremendous aura of fury…
Her children… she had to get her children… no matter what.
