The Bored Immortal

Chapter 515 Born From Flames

515 Born From Flames

"I hope Chief Tamo doesn't scold us for conducting such…indecent activities in such a beautiful cave," Taya said with a red face after she dressed up and came out of the lake. She was still panting after being ravaged by Viktor for so many hours.

Umilia let out a short giggle as she also came out of the lake, though her legs seemed a bit weak as she walked. It seemed Viktor didn't have any mercy on her at all.

"Don't say it's indecent, Taya. Coupling between lovers is a beautiful act that deserves to be carried out in a place like this," Viktor said with a teasing smile as he came out of the lake as well.

"Hmph, if it for not me reminding the time, Chief Tamo might have sent someone to call us back, thinking that something might have happened to us," Taya said as she crossed her arms, though she was reluctant to admit that she wouldn't have reminded Viktor if not for the concern of him missing his duel with Aelita.

She still wanted Viktor to find out if he was connected to the natives here in any way.

"I know. Let's get back and see how strong this lady named Aelita is. I feel like they might be odic users. What do you think, Umi?" Viktor asked curiously.

Umilia shook her head and said, "I didn't feel any odic aura from any of them. Otherwise, I would have been the first to say something. But I know why you think like that, and it only baffles me more since I also feel like this community isn't just made up of only Regulars."

"Wait…you guys can't be serious? I mean…sure, they seem strong, but they spend their entire lives in forests and doing physical activities that develop their muscles. So isn't it natural that they are stronger than ordinary people? Even if they have strange rules, I have yet to witness something extraordinary," Taya stated her opinion.

Viktor squinted his eyes and asked, "Can you think of any young woman like Aelita who can lift a large vessel that weighs over 50 kilos with just one hand effortlessly?"

Taya sucked in air as she shook her head, "I don't know…Maybe these people might not be ordinary like you said, but you have the opportunity to find out."

Viktor nodded, but then he spotted something on the wall and said, "Guys, check this out."

Umilia and Taya squinted their eyes as they saw two palm prints side by side, one bigger than the other.

"Interesting…Did the people here apply some paint on their palms and do this? Seems like a couple did this," Umilia mused as she could see that one of the palm prints was slender and feminine while the other was manly and larger.

Taya stepped forward and looked at them very closely, "How strange…Based on the weathering on it, these palm prints were possibly made a very long time ago. Not just a few thousand years but much more than that, if I have to guess."

"Eh? Really?" Viktor knew Taya was interested in these things, just like her parents, who loved to explore places of the past. But he was surprised to learn these palm prints were so old.

He would have ignored these palm prints if not for the strange experience he had when he first looked at them.

"But the shocking part is that these palm prints were not made by applying anything on their palms. Whoever did this used their own palms to create an impression on this wall? It's very intriguing since I can't think of a way how anybody can leave their palm prints on a rock without even applying brute strength. Even if that was the case, it would be shocking too since no ordinary human would be strong enough to create an impression on these rocks with their bare hands," Taya eagerly explained as she became more fascinated with these palm prints. She wondered if Chief Tamo knew about this.

Viktor was getting more drawn to this simple 'art' and unconsciously lifted his right hand and placed his palm right over the larger palm print.

Taya and Umilia knitted their brows, but then their lips parted as they saw that Viktor's palm perfectly fit the larger palm print.

"What a coincidence…Your palm actually fits the man who left his here," Taya mumbled with a look of surprise.

Viktor was also surprised, but suddenly he felt a scorching sensation on his palm before he could pull away his hand,

*Whoosh!*

"Whoa!" Viktor's eyes widened when bright golden flames suddenly burst out from the rocky wall and enveloped his palm.

"Viktor!" Taya and Umilia were shocked by what they just saw and became worried when they saw that Viktor's right hand was blazing with vigorous golden flames that just wouldn't die.

Umilia was about to help him snuff the flames out when Viktor raised his other hand and said, "Wait…I don't feel any pain, and these flames aren't burning up my flesh. Look…something weird is happening…" Viktor pointed at his right hand as the other two looked on with intense curiosity.

"Is that an…egg?" Taya mumbled with a stupefied look as she saw the golden flames slowly dying on their own.

"A golden egg?" Umilia placed her hand on her lips with a surprised look upon seeing a beautiful, shiny golden egg on Viktor's palm. It was as big as an ostrich's egg but perfectly smooth and oval.

"No shit…How did this happen…" Viktor was the most puzzled by whatever just happened now. He had no idea where those flames came from or how this magical-looking egg just manifested in his hand. Shouldn't eggs come from birds or reptiles? But nobody ever saw any creature around here.

But Viktor had no doubt that the one who laid this egg was far from ordinary.

"Taya…you said a legendary creature once made this cave it's home, right? Did they happen to tell you what kind of a creature it was?" Viktor asked as he carefully held this large egg.
