Omega Summoner

In a secluded lake in the east part of the eastern continent, the lake's water started bubbling. The water of the lake looked like it as boiling but it had not even changed temperature. The water bubbling was just a prelude to the strong gush of water shooting upwards into the heavens like a dragon.

The huge geyser finally settles, and the lake is finally serene once more. Someone is now standing on the surface of the lake as if it was her who made the water erupt. The person standing on top of the water has horns of an eastern dragon called Loong on the top of her head. She also had a noticeable thick dragon tail coming out from her pelvis.

"Well done my apprentice. You are now an ascended being that is much more powerful than your pitiful Gnome boy. A gnome's body could not easily handle all the elements that I have taught you." A woman looking like her but more mature and refined stated.

"The test was difficult and tricky, but I managed to hold on due to my perseverance. The skills that you thought me served me well during the rebirth process. I am very thankful for that master…I mean Sister Nu Wa" Peridot stated as she is now a different race.

She was subjected to a ritual that transformed her into a being that can handle more immense energies. Her previous race could not handle the elements due to Gnomes not having a great affinity for all elements. Her changing her race into a Ryujin made her entire being become easily attuned to the elements of the world.

Name: Peridot

Race: Dragonkin

Species: Ryujin

The horns and tail are not the only significant change that she experienced. Her skin might look like that of a human but if one looked closely it is actually scaly in texture. Her eyes also changed into serpentine slits like that of a reptile.

Peridot did not achieve this eat easily because she had to complete the task her master gave her upon arriving to the eastern continent. One of the tasks she was given was scaling a waterfall through physical strength alone without relying on magic. Another one of her tasks was gaining the Intermediate Mastery on all the four basic elements of water, wind, earth, and fire.

You could say that she earned her race change as she experienced numerous difficult tasks that would make anyone give up. Not everyone would be given the chance to ascend into a Ryujin because their race is celebrated or rather venerated because they are descendants of a dragon. This is true for the east part of the eastern continent because their divine beast is the Azure Dragon.

"With your new body constitution, you can now handle the four basic elements with ease. I am expecting great things from you my disciple. You are free to do as you please once again. I am inhibiting your growth by keeping you locked up in my arms." Nu Wa stated wit a warm smile on her face.

"I am going now mas…I mean Sister Nu Wa. May we meet again." Peridot stated as she immediately went to the docks of the east part of the eastern continent because not everyone could easily travel. Some people must use the conventional means of transportation to get to another continent.

A Ryujin is not a simple dragonkin species because they are not like the traditional dragonkin species that is available for character creation. Also, the Ryujin do not have wings but that does not mean that they cannot fly. Since they are descendants of the eastern dragons, Ryujins possess the ability to walk on air like what eastern dragon's do when their element is not air.

There is also another point of difference for Ryujin's to normal dragonkins. Ryujins have a more delicate touch due to their ancestors being more deity or protector figures. Ryujins care for the environment like a mother unlike western dragonkins that are greedier and more prone to fits of rage.

That does not mean that eastern dragons are always benevolent as they could be fierce if need be as there have been depictions of them conjuring up storms or floods to teach the people a lesson. The Ryujins have inherited these characteristics just as the western dragonkin inherited their traits from their ancestral dragons.

Peridot's master did not even bother to teach her of her new body abilities because it is up to Peridot herself to see what she is capable of. She must see what her body is capable of herself in order for her to know her limits and strengths.

Peridot went back to her room in the hidden villa near the lake to collect her belongings. Books, stones, and all sorts of charms are scattered about as proof that she was not idle the whole time that she was in the eastern continent. She already absorbed as much knowledge and practice all that he can. All that is left for her now is for a practical test to see what she can really do.

All her racial abilities from being a gnome are erased from her skill list and was replaced with ones that a Ryujin must possess. She feels rather sad that she was no longer a gnome because she was attached to being one despite only choosing it because she wanted to look cute.

But Peridot also knew that if she did not do this then she would be left behind. She was not as clueless to the world of Pandemonium like Adrian because she knows insider news and gossip as she likes hearing gossip because there is some truth to it. She knows all about how her two childhood friends are all what the top guilds rave about.

She did not feel disheartened that her two friends are famous, but she was disheartened about the fact that they were slipping farther away from her. She wanted to be on equal terms with her friends and stand beside them not behind them. She promised herself that she will be more active in Pandemonium. The money she earned from selling the elemental stones she made were also a great incentive for her.

"A diamond is a girl's best friend after all." Peridot muttered to herself as she boarded the ship back to the central continent.
