I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess! – Chapter 776

Chapter 15 The Little Phoenix Hatching
Although there were some dissenting opinions among the devout believers of the elves, after Loretta stepped forward, they were quickly pacified.
Just as Lolita had said, rather than letting the spring water blessed by the goddess fall into the hands of the night elves, it was better to give it to a friend who had helped her… Even a goddess herself would probably be happy to see this happen.
“Mr. Ig, then, we will guard you and Miss Verafia.”
Lolita turned her face and gave him a gentle smile, “But you don’t have to worry. Although this place is covered by the laws of the dark moon, it’s impossible for the night elves to come again, at least not today.”
After speaking, Lolita led the elven knights beside her out, scouting and guarding around the small town. Although the dwarf warrior Gavin didn’t quite understand, he also gave a hearty laugh and led the dwarf warriors beside him to guard them.
Soon, only Ophi and the sword spirit girl into which Zi’an transformed were left beside Ig.
Ig took a slight breath, and he carefully took out the phoenix egg in his arms. At this moment, he couldn’t help but feel a trace of nervousness and apprehension in his heart.
“Veer…”
The phoenix egg, which was as large as two hands, had a shell surface that looked like ancient rock strata, appearing solid, but it was quite smooth and round compared to a dragon’s eggshell.
Ig’s fingers touched the surface that was as delicate as fine immature jade, and the brilliant golden and luxurious surface rippled with a dazzling golden radiance, touching the beautiful patterns.
A smile couldn’t help but appear on Ig’s face, but he put her away for now. He took out the Life Sacred Spring gifted by the Dwarf King from his spatial ring and placed it into the entire Moonlight Spring, then waved his magic, drawing a magic array of runes on the surface of the shimmering spring water.
Verafia’s phoenix egg was transformed from the Creation Divine Spark, and was born almost flawless. From birth, it had been continuously absorbing the demonic power in the heavens and earth. All she needed was enough energy to break out of her shell and grow.
However, for Ig, it would naturally be a better thing to condense more pure power for her through the magic array, regardless of whether it was useful to his girl.
“Veer will definitely come out… Even if there are still some shortcomings, it will definitely make her hatch faster!”
Sensing the pure demonic power that swept over her, Ophi saw Ig’s somewhat nervous face, and suddenly clenched her fists, raising her little face to encourage him.
“En, thank you, Little Fei…” Ig smiled and looked at her.
“Hey, what kind of talk is that? Veer is not only Ig’s girlfriend, she’s my friend too.”
The Ice Dragon Girl pouted her snow-white cheeks a little, and her slightly displeased voice came.
Ig gently picked up the phoenix egg with both hands. Its gorgeous golden exterior reflected moving brilliance, and he gently placed it in the center of the magic array. Countless life spiritual powers surged in the moonlight.
The moment he put it down, the entire condensed spiritual power surged towards the phoenix egg. It was like a small black hole, devouring the life spiritual power and moonlight laws in the entire spring water at an unimaginable speed, and even the spiritual power scattered in the air did not escape.
Ig’s heartstrings were taut, his fingers lightly clasped, and he stared at the phoenix egg in the moonlight without daring to relax for a moment.
The gorgeous and delicate phoenix egg floated in the center of the moonlight. The beautiful golden phoenix patterns on the shell seemed to be activated by the dense spiritual power, and golden brilliance was cast on the surface of the water.
In just a moment, the terrifying power formed by the transformation of a condensed deity, enough to explode any Saint Rank, was easily absorbed by her. Even the traces of the spring water were rapidly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As the power and law traces in the entire spring water were continuously absorbed, the silver radiance of the entire spring gradually faded and dimmed, while the golden shell of the phoenix egg shone more brilliantly, and its gorgeous patterns were like countless dazzling suns.
In the distance, Lolita was surprised to turn her face, sensing the traces of the laws. Many elven knights, including her, also showed shocked expressions. At this moment, a sacred and noble aura gradually enveloped the entire sky, and a dense and luxurious aura condensed into a golden curtain.
Brilliant radiance enveloped the surface of the world. The divine power soaked in the golden spiritual power rolled, and the incomparable noble and luxurious aura even caused celestial phenomena.
“Crack.”
Suddenly, a crisp sound broke the shock in everyone’s eyes. Ig’s eyes suddenly narrowed. The demonic power erupting from the surface of the golden phoenix egg reached its limit. A long, thin crack appeared on the shell of the divine golden immortal jade, and a slender golden little head poked out from it.
“Veer…”
Just as Ig spoke, he saw the golden little bird turn from the eggshell. The feathers on its wings and its slender body were covered with fine sticky liquid that still faintly glowed with golden brilliance. Although it had just been born, it was already possible to admire its magnificent and elegant posture.
“Veer, is it really a phoenix?” Ig was somewhat stunned.
“Veer hatched from a phoenix egg, so of course she’s a little phoenix!”
Ophi crouched in front of the little phoenix whose small head poked out from the cracked golden eggshell. Her frost-blue big eyes flashed, lighting up with joy. She felt like she was melting, and really wanted to pinch out the little bird that hadn’t broken out of its shell with her fingertips and hold it in her hands to dote on.
“Well, as expected of Veer, she’s only just been born, and she’s still a little phoenix… she’s so cute.”
The Ice Dragon Girl tried her best to suppress the impulse in her heart, and with a sweep of her slender dragon tail, she raised her face. Her crystal-like exquisite dragon horns sparkled, and she looked at Ig and said happily.
“Chirp!”
The crisp and pleasant chirping sound was as beautiful and melodious as immortal music. The little phoenix struggled to stand up from the eggshell. Her slender body swayed, and she flapped her golden little wings, raising her little head, and began to peck at the broken eggshell bit by bit.
“Veer is…” Ig felt a moment of helplessness, turned his face, and asked Ophi.
“Veer took a lot of effort to get out of the egg. And she’s still so small, she’ll need a lot of energy… The broken eggshell is the best food. Well, I heard from my sister that it was the same when I hatched from my dragon egg when I was a child.”
As she explained, Ophi’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she stuck out her tongue a little shyly. Then she suddenly seemed to think of something and quickly added:
“Well, Ig, don’t feed her with magic crystals or anything like that. Even a phoenix, being so small, won’t be able to withstand it… Besides, these eggshells are enough for her current energy!”
Ig nodded hurriedly.
The chick of the little phoenix raised her little head and ate the eggshell bit by bit, starting with the broken small pieces, and then gradually eating the larger intact eggshells. In a short period of time, she ate all the remnants of the entire phoenix egg.
“So now, what should I do?” Ig felt a little flustered and continued to ask the Ice Dragon Girl, who was the only one who had experienced hatching.
“This…” Ophi scratched her beautiful hair, and for a moment she didn’t know how to respond.
After eating the eggshell, the little phoenix’s sticky liquid completely faded, making her look even more exquisite and beautiful. She hopped a small distance to the ground, flapped her small wings slightly, and her fine downy feathers spread out. Suddenly, she fluttered and flew up.
“Mama!”
With a crisp and pleasant cry, the little phoenix flew to Ig’s front. She gently nuzzled her small head, making a sound full of attachment.
