The first crack arrived with a burst of mana pouring out, that sounded like bone snapping. The pressure that followed displayed the strength of its egg compared to the others.
A single fracture ran down the shell, glowing faintly with violet light. Then another. The shell began to peel itself open, layer by layer, like a creature testing its own strength.
A clawed hand broke down through the opening that was created. The claws were almost humanoid in structure, resembling a hand, but its appearance was that of a beast. Thick veins ran beneath the pale surface, feeding into nails like curved talons. The hand gripped the rim of the egg and tore downward.
Its form slowly emerged from the shattered husk. It stood taller than Arachne, its limbs were long and sturdy. The upper half was humanoid, pale, rough-looking skin streaked with traces of black mana still burning off from its shell. Silver hair clung to its shoulders, dripping wet.
