Babel, Fels's secret workshop.
Drake, Stella, and Fels were together looking at the complex magic tool that emitted a magical glow.
Through the outer shell made of magic crystals, the three could see the wonderful changes that were taking place inside.
After being blocked by Dix for a few minutes, Stella and Wiene hadn't encountered any more accidents, successfully reuniting with Fels.
Drake had also arrived after entrusting a few things to Tsubaki and the others, so Wiene's regeneration ritual officially began.
Inside the instrument, Wiene's body became transparent, allowing the three to see the magic stone inside her body.
And that magic stone became brighter and brighter, the purple-black substance inside it seeming to be purified.
The magic stone transformed from the appearance of a rock into a translucent gem, and at the same time, Wiene's body completely etherealized and disappeared.
In the next instant, countless rays of light extended out from the magic stone, outlining a human figure.
The potions arranged around the magic tool were rapidly consumed, providing a large number of nutrients for the body to be generated.
Bones, internal organs, muscles, skin, and other tissues were rapidly generated, a girl's body quickly appearing before the three's eyes.
The appearance was the same as Wiene's original appearance, but without the original dragon scales and blue skin.
Besides the long ears, there were no more monster characteristics on her body.
Her eyelids trembled, the newborn Wiene opening her eyes.
Fels opened his arms, excitedly saying, "Drake, we succeeded! We successfully completed half of the miracle that only gods can do - creating life!"
Drake couldn't help but reveal an excited expression, not only because he had completely changed Wiene's life, but also because it proved that his efforts all along hadn't been in vain.
This first step's success proved that as long as he continued to walk down this path, he would definitely be able to complete his long-cherished wish.
The outer shell of magic crystals opened, Wiene holding onto the edge, carefully walking down.
Her fair little feet stepped on the ground, Wiene staggering, taking two steps like a baby who was just learning to walk.
A touched expression appeared on Wiene's face. Was this how humans perceived the world!
Her vision, sense of smell, and sense of touch were all different from before. Although she couldn't say where it was different, it gave her a feeling of wanting to cry.
Drake raised his hand, draping the cloak that he had taken out from his ring over Wiene's body, only smiling, not saying anything.
Drake naturally understood Wiene's feelings. From now on, she would have a new life, not being hated by everyone just because of her existence, being able to live freely in the sunlight.
Anyone would have incredibly complex feelings after removing the heaviest shackles in the world.
Stella also walked over, her maternal instincts erupting, hugging Wiene in her arms.
After the two had calmed down, Drake said, "Although Wiene has completed regeneration, we still have to test her carefully. After all, we haven't experimented before. It would be difficult if something went wrong."
Stella nodded, then looking at Wiene in her arms, then looking at Drake, saying, "Alright, you men go outside and wait. Wiene needs to change clothes."
Drake smiled awkwardly, pulling Fels out of the workshop.
While waiting, Drake said, "Next, as long as we improve it a bit more, this technology can be promoted, right!"
Fels nodded, saying, "Indeed, this way, the problem of the Xenos can be resolved."
Drake said, "Don't relax too early. Not all Xenos will be willing to become human."
Having the most contact with the Xenos, Fels had to admit that what Drake had said was correct. Not all Xenos yearned for life on the surface like Wiene.
Even some radical Xenos were full of hatred towards humans. Whether they would be willing to regenerate as humans really couldn't be determined.
Sighing, Fels said, "There's no way to do anything about that. That's the path that they've chosen themselves."
Drake nodded, not saying anything. The reason why Ouranos had allowed Fels to help the Xenos was because, from a god's point of view, Xenos who possessed reason were no different from humans.
So he hoped that the Xenos could coexist peacefully with humans, and at the same time, the Xenos who were born in the Dungeon would definitely have a significant role in exploring the unknown of the Dungeon.
But that didn't mean that Ouranos and Fels would be responsible for everything that the Xenos did. If they chose another path, Ouranos had no position to interfere at all.
Just like they did with humans, only providing help and advice, not forcing them to make the final decision.
The two were talking about further optimization plans when suddenly the door opened, Wiene running out, directly hugging Drake.
Considering that it would be convenient to move around during the tests later, Wiene had changed into a white jumpsuit with blue stripes, with a short cape draped over it.
The lower body was a short skirt and over-the-knee socks, making Wiene look especially cute and moving.
Wiene hugged Drake, raising her head, saying, "Stella is so scary!"
Drake was stunned, then raising his head to look at Stella, who had chased after her.
"Wait a minute, Wiene! Try this set on too. It's also very pretty!"
Seeing the way Stella's eyes were shining, no wonder she had scared Wiene away.
Drake had also guessed what had happened. As expected, no woman could refuse to dress up a cute girl.
Smiling wryly, Drake stopped the excited Stella, saying, "Alright, it'll be dark if we delay any longer! Anyway, there will be plenty of time later."
Stella had no choice but to give up, putting away the clothes in her hand, but saying with reluctance in her mouth, "It's clearly really pretty!"
Under Stella's mumbling, the group directly entered the Dungeon, finding an open space.
Drake had been observing Wiene all the way. Although her movements had been a bit awkward at the beginning, that was all because of the difference between the new body and her habits.
But after getting used to it, there was no more disharmonious feeling in her movements.
Not only her movements, Drake had also been paying attention to her life aura. It seemed that there were no problems with the matching of her soul and body either.
At this point, Drake had achieved the most basic requirements of the regeneration ritual. As for the others, they would be extra gains.
And the most important of these extra gains was naturally the ability to fight.
Drake said to Wiene, "Wiene, calm down and feel the energy flowing in your body, then guide it out according to what I taught you."
Wiene closed her eyes, her eyebrows furrowing tightly, using all her strength to find the energy that Drake had mentioned.
Drake had once thought that his previous assumptions had failed, until Wiene suddenly opened her eyes, opening her mouth, spitting out a ball of flame.
After spitting out the flame, Wiene herself was startled, subconsciously covering her mouth with her small hands.
Drake laughed as he watched, saying, "It seems that you still need to train more to master it, but you did succeed. Wiene, you're also a Dragon Slayer mage like me!"
Wiene said with pleasant surprise, "Am I the same as Drake?"
Drake said, "Although there's a bit of a difference to be exact, but that's indeed the case."
According to the classification of Dragon Slayer mages, Drake, who had been taught by a dragon, should be the first generation, while Wiene was the second generation, who had obtained Dragon Slayer magic by embedding a Dragon Slayer magic crystal.
On the issue of how to fuse the body and soul, Drake had an epiphany, thinking of making the magic stone, which was the carrier of Wiene's soul, into a Dragon Slayer magic crystal, then completing the fusion using the method of the second generation Dragon Slayer mage embedding the Dragon Slayer magic crystal.
And the power of the dragon that was used during the ritual was the magic power provided by Drake. So Wiene had also become a Fire Dragon Slayer mage.
Wiene closed her eyes again, then opening them after a while, saying, "Drake, I feel another ability."
Saying this, Wiene stretched out her palm, her fair little hand instantly being covered with dragon scales, the fingertips even transforming into claws.
A pair of huge dragon wings spread out from Wiene's back, even her eyes turning into vertical pupils.
Drake said quickly, "Wiene, can you change back?"
Wiene nodded, after a few breaths, the claws, scales, and dragon wings all retracted, transforming back into human form.
Fels said, "It seems that after regeneration, she not only possesses a human body, but also has the ability to transform into a monster, like having transformation magic.
In this way, after undergoing the regeneration ritual, she's no longer a monster. If you had to say, she should now be a demi-human race like the Lilliputs and dwarves.
And is an excellent demi-human race with rare talents."
Drake nodded, saying, "That's right, a race that has mastered transformation abilities, like druids."
Fels praised, "Druids... that's quite fitting. Let's call the newly emerged them that! From today onwards, a race called druids has been added to the stage of Orario."
Druids, characters that frequently appeared in Drake's previous life's various works.
Its meaning was the spirit of the oak tree, a being who could communicate with nature spirits and gods in legends. There was also a legend that they were mages who cultivated nature magic, able to control nature and transform into various animals.
This world, which had the myths of Drake's previous life as a setting prototype, naturally also had legends of druids.
It was just that the druids of this world were another name that ordinary people used for spirits, especially referring to those who walked on the earth in the form of animals.
Although the reason why Fels thought it was suitable was different from Drake's, this name was indeed very suitable.
