The Greatest Beast Trainer: Building A Nation On The Back Of A Dragon Chapter 5

"Ding! A domesticated animal has been detected in the vicinity of the host!"
"Do you wish to domesticate it?"
The system's voice sounded.
Domestication!
Solomon chose to domesticate it without hesitation.
The Rainbow Glazed Snake was still wriggling its body, trying to break free from Solomon's palm.
Solomon was also very fond of this small snake that could emit rainbow light.
"Level 0 animal detected, Rainbow Glazed Snake, beginning domestication..."
"Domestication successful!"
"Host, you can open your personal interface to see the specific information."
As soon as the system finished speaking, the little snake's body became motionless, and even the red tongue that it spat out was retracted, becoming docile.
Solomon and the Rainbow Glazed Snake also had a closer connection and bond.
"I'll call you Rainbow Snake from now on."
Solomon said happily.
It had only been a day, and he had tamed another mutated animal.
Hearing this name, when it evolved to a higher level, it would definitely be another giant python!
The Rainbow Snake seemed to like this name very much. It wriggled its body and slithered to Solomon's feet. It used its head to rub Solomon's feet gently. It was extremely docile, forming a sharp contrast with its previous appearance.
"Open the personal panel."
Solomon instructed the system.
[Host] : Solomon
[Domestication] : 0 (Number of times domestication is available today)
[Domesticated Animals] : Little Fire Dragon (level 1), Rainbow Glazed Snake (level 1)
[Animal Talent] : Little Fire Dragon (fireball technique), Rainbow Glazed Snake (rainbow snake transformation)
[Host Can Inherit Talent] : Fireball technique (inherited), rainbow snake transformation (uninherited)
[Animal Evolution Points] : 0
A blue panel appeared in Solomon's mind.
With this panel, Solomon could know his situation anytime and anywhere.
"Ding! Detected that the host still has an uninherited animal talent!"
"Do you want to inherit it?"
The system's voice sounded again.
"Inherit."
Solomon's voice had just faded when he sensed that his body was undergoing changes.

The surface of his skin had become smooth and cold. If one looked carefully, one could see that there were some small scales on Solomon's skin. Snake scales!
Solomon's pupils had also changed, just like the Rainbow Snake.
"Congratulations to the host for successfully inheriting the animal talent: Rainbow Snake Transformation!"
Following that, a piece of information regarding the Rainbow Snake Transformation entered Solomon's mind.
Rainbow Snake Transformation: Changes one's body like a snake. It can change according to the changes in the environment. As a result, the user's speed and perception will increase.
Just like that, Solomon maintained this form. He stood for more than an hour before he came into contact with the effect of this skill.
"Looks like there's no time limit. This is an amazing skill, woah! This is an excellent skill!"
The more Solomon looked at this skill, the more ecstatic he became.
The most important thing was that he could change his color according to his current environment. If someone without a strong perception came back, no one would be able to notice him at all!
Whether it was for hiding from enemies or assassinating enemies, this kind of concealment skill was perfect.
When the time came, the Little Fire Dragon would use the fireball skill to cripple the enemy, and then the Rainbow Snake would give him a fatal blow. Solomon would then be able to sit by the side and reap the benefits. Awesome!
Thinking of this, Solomon already had an image in his mind, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly into a smile.
"The only drawback is that the Rainbow Snake's awakening skill can only be used for concealment and has not awakened an offensive skill set."
"But there's no rush. After I get evolution points and give the Rainbow Snake a chance to evolve, it might be able to awaken a new skill!"
"At that time, it'll be another heaven-defying animal!"

Solomon muttered to himself.
"Follow behind me. Don't expose your position!"
Solomon said to the Rainbow Snake.
He did not intend to let the Rainbow Snake hunt for food on its own like the Little Fire Dragon. He was more at ease with the Little Fire Dragon. The Rainbow Snake did not have such an offensive skill. If it were released, it would be suicide. He would temporarily keep it by his side. It was still safer.
The Rainbow Snake slithered behind Solomon. The distance between the two was not more than two meters. This was also Solomon's order to it.
The Rainbow Snake used its own awakened skill and quietly followed behind Solomon. It had already changed its color and blended into the surrounding environment.
...
After a few more hours of hunting, all that they killed were small snakes. They even encountered a few dying rats. Solomon naturally did not mind and kept them all in his bag.
At this time, Solomon clearly heard waves of shouts.
"Damn it, don't let her escape!"
"Give chase, we have to catch her today and let our brothers enjoy her. She actually tried stealing our prey!"
"That's a good idea. Kill her after we're done!"
"..."
Solomon heard the sound and looked over.
Because he had inherited the Rainbow Snake's talent, his vision and perception had at least doubled!
He could clearly see a scene in the distance. However, he could only see four young men dressed in animal skins, holding bone knives in their hands and a small horn on their waists. They were chasing after a young girl.
"You're obviously my prey, you bunch of shameless bastards!"
The young girl ran as she fought back against the four young men.
The young girl quickly passed by Solomon.
"Hey... Solomon, why are you here?"
The young girl was not a random girl. She was Nicole, who had just separated from Solomon.
Nicole had never thought that she would actually meet Solomon here. It really was fate.
The four young men also noticed Solomon and started scolding him.
"Kid, who are you?"
"What's your relationship with this woman?"
"I'm telling you, this is none of your business. If you don't want to die, then get lost!"
"Hurry up and hand over that woman!"
The four young men waved the bone knives in their hands and threatened Solomon. The four of them looked at Solomon as if they were looking at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
After all, there were four of them. How could the youth who had suddenly appeared in front of them be a match for them!
Nicole, who was hiding behind Solomon, tugged at the corner of Solomon's clothes. "Solomon, why don't we run first? There are four of them!"
"Hey, why are you still charging in? Are you stupid!?"
Solomon rushed in front of the four youths at an extremely fast speed.
The four youths obviously did not have time to react as Solomon would suddenly rush over.
Solomon stretched out his left hand and grabbed the neck of one of the youths.
Snap!
Solomon immediately broke the neck of the youth.
Following that, Solomon chanted the dragon language, and the surface of his body started to heat up. As a result, the surrounding temperature also became higher.
An inch in front of his mouth, a tiny fireball condensed.
Woosh!
The fireball flew directly toward the other two young men. In a short while, the fireball burned the bodies of the two young men, leaving nothing behind.
"You... you can't kill me!"
"I'm boss Jack's man!"
The remaining young man trembled as he raised the bone knife that had fallen to the ground and said to Solomon, who was walking forward.

NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
