Chapter 453 ( Kuruta Island - VI )
"Netero" - Cloud said as he narrowed his eyes - "There are many things I want to talk to you about, but for now let's concentrate on the most serious question, how did you know what I am?"
"I have met some members of your race during my travels" - Netero answered calmly as he started to think - "At first I didn't feel it, but after I felt your aura when I awakened your Nen, I discovered ,the similarity I had with other dragons."
"I knew it!" - Menchi exclaimed as she looked at Cloud with surprise, after all, she never thought she was traveling alongside a mythical creature like a dragon.
Cloud ignored the woman and continued to look at Netero with a neutral expression.
"If I'm honest, I wasn't so sure that you could save this little one" - Netero replied while stroking his chin - "This confirms our hunters' assumptions, you use a very different kind of energy than our aura."
Cloud didn't say anything when he heard Netero's assumption, after all, he wasn't in the mood to reveal a bit of his secrets.
"I feel like you're a little upset with me, young dragon" - Netero said while pulling his long beard - "Well, it's not like I don't understand why, after all, I would be upset in your situation too, but at least something good came out of this, you managed to save a member of your race, even though he's not pureblood like you are"
Cloud said nothing in response, he just watched the little creature closely before snorting in disdain. He honestly wasn't very interested in this little one because it honestly wasn't part of his mission, or of any use to his current situation.
"Cloud, I'm going to tame it" - Kyoko said as she placed her hand on the [Pixy Dragon]'s head before watching as the notification told her that the taming had been successful.
With her [Tame: Lvl 4], she could tame 4 creatures, having only two slots occupied because Kuro was a [Familiar], a very different category.
She quickly shared the [Pixy Dragon] information with her companions, only for them to look at the Stats with surprise.
"What do you want me to say? I was expecting something else" - Kyōka said while shaking her head.

Cloud was silent as he looked at the small creature in his hands, only to look at it with greater appreciation because now he understood why they were such rare and special creatures.
"I guess you couldn't expect anything less from a dragon" - Cloud said as he felt a small pride grow inside him at the discovery that this little creature was much more than he showed.
"Well, I take it back" - said Kyōka after reading the description of the little one's ability.

[Additional Info: [Treasure Seeker (EX)] is an active, and has a CD of 1 hour, and can only be activated when there are treasures or rare objects nearby (50 meters). The probability of finding objects increases the closer you are to the target, at long distance it only indicates the direction where the object is possibly located].
**********************
"This is indeed broken" - Kyōka said excitedly.
"Not exactly, the probability of finding a rare object, is low, I'd say 10%, and the other rarities with much lower" - said Cloud as he started to think - "Although at the same time this is impressive."
Finding this huge variety of objects, is a gift from the heavens, though at the same time it was extremely situational, more so when the legendary or higher rarity objects, were almost impossible to find unless they had the information of their general location.
"Well, we'd better leave that for another time" - Kyōka said as he shrugged his shoulders and looked carefully at Netero - "You being here, means that not only did you know about Cloud's true identity, but also that he had been spying on us, which is fucking amazing knowing that Cloud has extremely acute senses."
"It's thanks to this, a compound that covers my scent even from a dragon's nose" - Netero said calmly as he took out a small vial - "As for how he didn't hear me approaching, it's a skill I've developed over the years of experiences"
Cloud was silent as he frowned, only to shake his head, after all, Netero was much harder to handle than he thought.
He had originally thought he was the creature at the top of this dimension's food chain, but now that Netero had played with him, he understood that he had to get even better.
"Ok, with this, your test has been passed, although I wish you wouldn't say anything about how some [magical beasts] have had offspring with normal humans" - Netero said seriously - "That's a secret that not many people know."
"Just don't say anything about my true identity, and I won't say anything" - Cloud replied neutrally, after all, he knew how rare and valuable a dragon was in this world, more so for Gourmet hunters.
Menchi quickly averted her gaze when she noticed how Cloud was giving her a neutral look.
"Anyway, welcome to the [Hunter's Association]." - Netero said as he handed the trio their hunter's licenses, then looked at Menchi - "You did a good job, hunter Gourmet Menchi."
"I only did my duty" - Menchi replied as she looked carefully at the trio, only to shake her head as this would be the last time she would see them for a good while.
"Well, that would be all for now, the ship is already returning to the port of this island, so go immediately to the beach" - Netero said with a smile, only to take a big jump and enter a helicopter that was in the sky.
The four young adults looked at Netero with boredom as they wondered why he didn't take them back with him, instead of having a ship return to this uninhabited area.
"We'd better go along with Netero's instructions" - Cloud said as he picked the bridge of his nose.
The little Jackalope just cocked her head in confusion because she honestly didn't understand what had happened while the [Dragon-Pixy] continued to sleep silently.
* * * * *
Two days later, the group had arrived back in civilization.
Menchi had managed to get the last ingredients to be able to cook the [Dracoaguila], and had invited the trio to eat, after all, it was the least she could do for them after getting the most important ingredient.
The Jackalope now had a cute black necklace around her neck as she looked around curiously with her jet black eyes.
The [Dragon-Pixy] had regained consciousness, and despite having become Kyoko's pet, she continued to stay close to Cloud, soaking up all the mana she could resist in order to recover.
"I'm still amazed at how different this city is from ours" - Kyōka said while looking around curiously because there were not only people with different appearances, but also exotic animals that were the mixture of two races from her dimension.
Kyoko for her part, was looking carefully at all the stores that were selling animals, but to her bad luck, all of these were useless to her cause.
Mimi, the [Dragon-Pixy], slowly raised her head and began to sniff the surroundings.
[Mimi (Dragon-Pixy), has activated [Treasure Seeker] and managed to detect a rare object in the area].
The trio quickly looked at the little creature, who quickly began to 'meow'.
"Kyu ~!" - Mimi quickly began to shake her body as she pointed her nose in a northerly direction.
"Come on, maybe it's something interesting" - Cloud said with a smile full of curiosity because he was honestly curious as to how good this strange ability would be.
The trio slowly walked in the indicated direction while Mimi continued to sniff the area, or at least until they reached a strange tent that had hundreds of rocks and ancient artifacts.
"Hello, welcome," said an older man as he noticed how the trio seemed to be interested in his wares, though his gaze lingered for a few seconds on the two beautiful escorts tes of the blond, though quickly shook his head.
