Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Just like what Eilajah had said, after a few minutes of waiting cracking sounds from the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs were heard.

Leo and Steve quickly turned their excited eyes on the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

The cracks began slowly spreading all over each Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs. Then, finally, with a Pak! Sound, a yellow-colored head slowly drilled out from the eggs.

"Cuteee," Steve can't help commenting as he saw the tiny Yellow Skinned Anacondas slowly trying to get out of their eggs.

"Line up," Eilajah said, using a language that both Leo and Steve weren't able to understand. He explained, "I used the Magical Beast language to make them line up,"

"Ohhh," Both Leo and Steve nodded their heads in understanding.

Hearing Eilajah's order, all baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas slowly moved in front of him in a straight line. But a few of them were a bit slow to respond to join the line.

Although no one had asked, Eilajah still took the initiative to explain to Leo and Steve what he was doing, "You might think that hatching Magical Beast's eggs are very easy, but that is only because I used a Summoner's Blessing to speed up the process. That was that white light with green stripes you have seen just now."

"Summoner's Blessing is not a Magic spell, but rather it's a unique capability of a Magical Beast Tamer. We gained this unique capability after successfully taming a Magical Beast and gaining their blessings. We can also strengthen it by receiving more blessings."

"Without the capability to use Summoner's Blessing, one wouldn't be able to hatch any Magical Beast's eggs, unless, of course, if they are actually a Magical Beast capable of turning into a person's form, which is the unique capability of 5th Galaxy level and above Magical Beasts," Eilajah paused as he pointed his finger at a baby Yellow Skinned Anaconda that was so slow to respond to move to the line and explained, "That one you see that is slow in responding to my order doesn't actually have any defects or anything of the likes. It simply shows that they are trying to resist my Summoner's Blessing."

"It is through this action where we would be able to know if the Magical Beast is strong or not. The longer they resist my Summoner's Blessing, the stronger they are," Eilajah said with a smile on his face, and he added, "But once the Magical Beast successfully breaks free from my Summoner's Blessing, then that means I've failed to tame them."

"However, there is absolutely no need to worry about that. Because even if a Magical Beast Tamer failed on taming a Magical Beast in their first try, it doesn't mean that they can't try again, and again until they finally succeeded,"

"There are also certain times that we need to actually first give something to the Magical Beast in order for them to accept being tamed by us. Like for example, love and affection, some rare Magical resources, completing their challenge or passing their requirements, and there are also worst times when one even needs to defeat the Magical Beasts personally, which is usually what happened whenever we are taming a powerful Magical Beast. " Eilajah finished explaining.

The baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas were finally done lining in a straight line as soon as Eilajah finished explaining.

"What's the next step?" Leo excitedly asked, as he can't wait to learn more about taming Magical Beasts.

"First, is to feed them," Eilajah said as he waved his hand, taking out 10 chopped pieces of meat from an unknown Magical Beast.

All the baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas quickly began eating the Magical Beast's meat after Eilajah sent a command for them to eat.

Eilajah quickly explained, "Every newly hatched Magical Beast would need to have something to eat in order to replenish their energy because they have used a lot of their energy during the time they were breaking the shells of their eggs."

"You need to also remember that feeding tamed Magical Beast would increase their level of intimacy or favority to you, which is very important since a Magical Beast, despite already being tamed, will not do something that for them is not worth doing for you, especially in the case of powerful Magical Beast as they are prideful and has high standards,"

After finishing eating the Magical Beast's meat, the baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas raised their heads towards Eilajah while showing a satisfied expression on their tiny faces.

Out of nowhere, the yellow-colored skin of the baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas started to turn dry.

Noticing this, Leo turned to look at Eilajah and calmly asked, "What is happening?"

"They are shedding their skin," Eilajah replied.

"What, they are actually already growing?!" Steve exclaimed in shock while looking at the shedding baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas.

Although Steve wasn't a Magical Beast Tamer or someone that knows a lot about Magical Beasts, he still knew that any species of Magical Beast Anacondas would only shed their skins whenever their body is growing in size. But such a thing normally only happens after a few weeks or months.

On the contrary, these baby Yellow Skinned Anacondas had only hatched for ten or so of minutes, yet shockingly they are already growing.

"Magical Beasts are different to people like us. They would grow in size and become strong by simply eating other Magical Beasts. The more powerful kind of Magical Beast they eat, the faster they could grow," Eilajah explained before quickly adding, "However, every Magical Beast has this thing called, 'Species-Bottleneck'. It means that there is a natural limit or barrier to how much growth a certain Magical Beast could develop before their growth would start to slow down until it would eventually no longer develop anymore."

"Taking us people, for example; the natural limit that normal people's strength could become is peak No-Star Magical Knight. Although some could still become even more powerful than that, it still can't change their Fate that they will eventually hit a bottleneck one day where their strength could no longer develop."

"To break this bottleneck, one would need to become either a Mage or a Magical Knight so that they can start cultivating and using different kinds of Magical resources to further increase their strength. If they can't become one, then it would be impossible to breakthrough from this bottleneck,"

"The same kind of rule applies to the Magical Beasts as well. Only in their case is if they reached their Species-Bottleneck, they would need to eat something that will allow them to break through and thus continue growing stronger." Eilajah finished explaining.

On the side, Leo only showed a smile on his face. As someone who has 10 years or so worth of experience fighting against Magical Beasts, he naturally already knew about the so-called Species-Bottleneck. Such an example of that is the information about the Yellow Skinned Anaconda being a 3 Star level Magical Beast. This information doesn't literally mean that there is no 4 Star Yellow Skinned Anaconda in existence in the Celestial World, it simply means that it's their species' natural limit of growth. If a 3 Star Yellow Skinned Anaconda doesn't find a way to breakthrough from their Species-Bottleneck, then they would indeed forever remain at 3 Star level until they die.

Finding a way to breakthrough from their Species-Bottleneck is extremely difficult for the Magical Beast. In fact, there are only two known methods that he knew about to this date: first is to defeat a certain amount of a much more powerful Magical Beast, much preferably is two levels and higher, and eat their bodies, and the second one is to find a Magical resource that has the power to let them breakthrough from their Species-Bottleneck.

However, that's only the case when it's the Magical Beast themselves that are looking for ways to breakthrough. In the case of tamed Magical Beasts or Beast Companion, their owner or partner could help them find what they needed in order to break through to the next cultivation level. In fact, this was the exact meaning behind why Levi's parents wanted Levi to stay with him when they're gone because he could help Levi easily grow to become more powerful.

Unfortunately, he still wasn't able to give Levi that much of a help until this very moment. The only thing he has given to the little one were those Magical resources he had gotten from the Twilight Bear tribe in the Twilight Forest. Though, him being busy all this time was one of the reasons as well why he wasn't able to do much.

But, not for long, as he swears in the name of Fate, that he would definitely make Levi his Beast Companion before leaving Emerald Tree Kingdom. When that time comes, even if he is very busy and doesn't have that much free time to spend, Levi would still be able to benefit from him because every time he starts cultivating, the little one would also be able to get some benefits from that due to Levi being his Beast Companion. And to be honest, they might not even need to wait that long...

Whooosh!

"A green-colored string of Fate," Leo can't help smiling in delight as he secretly looked at the color of Fate String that connects to him from Eilajah's.
