Aethel Auragon - Dao Integrator

Just as Zephyr was inspecting his heart region which was constantly glowing purple and beating — looking mysterious, a translucent panel appeared in his field of vision, startling him.

Zephyr was dumbfounded!

He could not help but rub his eyes and blink a few times, thinking it was an illusion! But regardless of what he did, the translucent panel remained intact!!

It is not an illusion!

It did, however, not last long and vanished quickly without any trace.

Zephyr had a very strange feeling!

What exactly happened?

A sudden insight flashed through his mind, and the translucent data panel with words re-appeared.

=====

[Name: Zephyr / Aethel Auragon]

[Race: Dragon]

[Age: 1 Month / 150]

[Talent: Dao Integrator]

[Cultivation Realm: Body Refinement Realm {Skin Refinement(2%)}]

[Cultivation Technique: Azure Lightning Sovereign Scripter(1st layer)]

[Skill: Lightning Breath]

=====

When the transparent screen appeared, he was filled with anticipation for the future, but after reading everything, he could not help but be disappointed.

"This is not some sort of magical cheat; instead, it only holds crucial details about my reincarnated physique," Zephyr mused, scanning the text once more.

"So, I am a member of the Dragon Race now. Interesting." He continued to ponder, absorbing the magnitude of his new identity and the potential powers that came with it. The idea of being part of such a legendary and powerful race stirred a mix of excitement and curiosity within him.

He wondered aloud, his voice tinged with sadness, "Did my family of this life abandon me here because they saw no potential in me?" His hands moved methodically, yet absentmindedly, as he carefully fit the puzzle pieces together.

"My name turned out to be Aethel Auragon," he mumbled. "Does that mean I come from a noble family or something? I was abandoned, so I don't want to use the name from this life. I still prefer the name I had before."

"Then again what about the "Dao Integrator," whether talented or weak... Seems to be useless?" After a period of deep introspection and coming to terms with his somber realization, he found himself reflecting on the significance of his talent, as shown in the data panel.

But suddenly, as if a wall of water had been breached, certain information flooded Zephyr's mind.

He felt dizzy for a moment and held his head due to the overwhelming amount of information! After a few moments, he slowly regained consciousness.

Zephyr discovered that he was already proficient in using the Lightning Breath Skill! He unconsciously tried to use it, but to his disappointment there was not even a spark!!

It seemed he could not use it at such low cultivation realm. Zephyr was somewhat disappointed by this fact!

"Is this the Dragon Inheritance?" This term appeared in his mind as if by instinct.

"But this so-called inheritance only includes the [Azure Lightning Sovereign Scripter], the Lightning Breath skill, and some miscellaneous information." Zephyr thought while scratching his head.

When he thought of the [Azure Lightning Sovereign Scripter], information about the first layer flooded into his mind. It took some time to process all of this information. And Zephyr discovered that he was unable to progress to the next layers due to some 'laws' that prevented him from doing so.

Even though he had no idea what these 'laws' were supposed to be, all of this information was included in the inheritance.

Perhaps I will understand in the future.

Reaching the halfway point into the next layer was the only way to understand the subsequent layers!

He also learned that the Lightning Breath ability was a part of the dragon race he currently belonged to. As a lightning dragon, it was like breathing air or drinking water!

There was nothing special about it!

Zephyr could not help but sigh after digesting other miscellaneous informations.

Among his peers in Dragon race clan, all were born with mysterious and exceptional innate talent, but upon closer examination, the clan's elders were unable to find any 'innate talent' in Zephyr.

It is no wonder, they choose to send me to this unknown place!

Then what about this talent — showing in the data panel?

At this moment, some information about the attribute panel flooded into his mind.

Zephyr was unsure of how to react; so this attribute panel was the reason they were unable to identify any talent in me!

It seemed to possess some sort of 'concealment quality' that kept his talent hidden and made it impossible for higher-ups in the dragon clan to see right through him.

"I just do not know if this is a blessing in disguise or curse!" Zephyr sighed!

"So what about my 'Dao Integrator' talent." Zephyr thought while rubbing his chin!

As he focused on his talent, information about it poured into his mind.

Zephyr sat down, suddenly overwhelmed by the amount of information.

"The Dao Integrator is a talent in which two techniques or skills, once mastered to a high level, can be combined into a superior skill. Although achieving a successful integration requires significant effort."

However, Zephyr's expression darkened the next moment.

"With my talent it will take decades comprehending a technique, let alone two to greater completion to integrate into before my lifespan runs out." After receiving the information from the inheritance, Zephyr already had a subtle understanding of how long it would take to fully understand a technique.

"What a useless talent." Zephyr was heartbroken!

He felt frustrated, but then comforted himself because he knew there was nothing else he could do, but to accept the new reality before him.

"Forget it! Now that I have been given second chance, I will use it more wisely and enjoy it." Zephyr was positive about life so he quickly stood up from the ground while clenching his fist, shaking off his worries.

"I have no other choice anyway, I only have this one path to tread. Though the road may long, I must walk it. Whether I wish it to be long or short, the paths I am doomed to tread!"

"But first, my feathers need to grow up. It will be embarrassing running around n*ked. I wonder if advancing in [Skin Refinement Realm] to break through to the next realm will let me to grow feathers!" Thought Zephyr while rubbing his chin, scrutinizing his body — imagining a mighty dragon's body.
