My Space-Time System

Chapter 419

Chapter 419: Caught in the act.

For Blake to enter the peak of the Hero realm, he needed to understand the principles of nature in order to manipulate it.

Till now he hadn’t had a clue of what that meant, and just as always, He was on his own because the system wasn’t helping him.

Blake thought that the best way to understand nature was by feeling it, so he had been indulging in a lot of meditation in vegetative areas.

Although he had figured out close to nothing doing this, Blake knew that patience was key in learning and growing.

With the system monitoring the environment, Blake remained in his meditation position for close to an hour before the system alerted him that the mana pillar was reducing in intensity.

Blake opened his eyes and quickly moved closer, but that was when a stream of air hit his face.

[Something is comi...] The system attempted to alert Blake about the unidentified creature but it was already too late.

.....

‘Fuck me!’ Blake cursed as he was rooted to the spot, but that was when the fog covering the entire forest came towards the beast in front of him.

Awooo!

Once the fog cleared up, Blake saw a 5-meter tall wolf with a combination of pitch black and snow white fur. On its thick soft fur were glowing red and blue marks that matched the color of its eyes.

“You guys scared the hell out of me.” Blake let out a sigh of relief as he hugged the large head of Ebony and Ivory.

‘It was Ebony’s idea.’

Blake heard a sweet voice in his head causing him to pause and take a look at the wolf in front of him.

“Is that you Ivory?” Blake couldn’t help but ask.

From their first evolution, Blake couldn’t hear them talk, but he was somehow able to understand the meaning of every howl. This time it wasn’t a howl, but a mental communication.

‘Yes.’ The voice answered.

‘It’s not my fault that he didn’t like it!’ An aggressive voice screamed in Blake’s mind, causing Blake to facepalm.

‘Since when did my mind become a group chat?’ Blake was shocked by the development and didn’t know how to react to it.

“How do you mean it was his fault, aren’t both of you in charge of the body?” Blake asked Ivory.

“We are both one but I control the mind aspect and him the body.’ Ivory answered.

“Interesting...” It was at that moment that the mana pillar had dispersed, returning the forest to its serene state.

“The main thing is that both of you successfully evolved.” Blake said as he kissed their forehead.

In the last 2 years, Ebony and Ivory had taken Brian and Castiel’s spot as his closest friends. He could confide in them without the fear of people using his weakness against him.

(AN: So sad that animals are more trustworthy than humans.)

“The only problem now is your size.” Blake said to Ebony and Ivory that were crouching just to be on the same level as him.

Just then, Ebony and Ivory began shrinking in size until they reached 3 and a half meters till they became the same height as Blake.

“Wow!” Blake was stunned because the only beasts he knew could alter their size were emperor-rank beasts.

“Time to check out your upgrades.” Blake said as he opened up their info.

Metamorphosis: Ebony and Ivory transform into Haiti and Skoll.

Ruler’s will: Once in Haiti and Skoll form they suppress every beast below the king rank within a 30-meter range.

Binding chains: Haiti and Skoll produce energy chains that constrict and drain vitality.]

“Aren’t there meant to be new abilities that come with evolution?” Blake couldn’t help but ask when he saw the thing that changed was an upgrade to Ruler’s will and their rank.

[Most of the new abilities come from their element, the rest are body parts that evolve into something else. Also, there might be some things that might have been upgraded but not written in the ability section.] The system reminded him of the size reduction that happened a few seconds ago.

“Alright then, we have to test out your fire and ice elements.” Blake said with an excited smile as they went on a search for soon-to-be unfortunate beasts.

Due to the mana pillar, beasts had moved away from the area but thanks to the sharp nose of Ebony and Ivory, they immediately tracked down 4 sabertooth moose.

On getting closer, Blake realized that it was a harem heard and the male was currently mating with one of the females in the herd.

‘This just made things awkward.” Blake couldn’t help but facepalm.

[The beast tide ended almost 2 months ago so you should have expected it.] The system said.

With the beast tide ending not long ago, resources for beasts were now abundant, meaning reproduction would also be rampant.

“Should we wait for them or should interrupt them?” Blake asked.

“Interrupt!” Ebony said in a mischievous tone.

“Alright, let’s see what you guys can do in your combined form.” Blake said as he came down from their back.
