Chapter 603: Jewel’s Hybrid Transformation is Taller than Me
“That’s your hybrid form? You actually become taller than me. How’s that possible?”
After finishing her cultivation and her rhinoceros form evolved, I asked her to transform.
Her Steel Rhino transformation is not different at all with the Steel Rhino she defeated. Including the size.
But when she transformed from her original form into her hybrid form, not only she wears the armor just like her normal transformation. Her height also grow. From the previous Jewel who was a head shorter than me, she became someone who is a head taller than me.
My height right now is around 190 cm. But Jewel is taller than me after transforming into her hybrid form. Even though I’m already slightly taller than average height of humans, she’s already much taller than that. Though it’s good that she doesn’t become fatter as she’s still keeping her body shape like when she was shorter.
“Yeah. I’m lucky that I didn’t become fatter. Though I need to get used to this height if I want to fight. Master, let’s go home right away. I want to see if there are other weapons I can use while I’m in this form. Some magic weapon that could enhance my lightning magic if possible,” Jewel said.
“Good. Though you need to ask Candy since she’s also a lightning mage as well. You two can figure out what each other needed. Are you going home in that form?” I asked.
.....
“...No. Master, can you give me a change of clothes? Transforming into a different form destroyed my clothes. Though I’m curious why such thing never happened when I transformed into a rhino, but only happens when I transform into this form,” Jewel said.
Oh, right. When she transformed into this form, the clothes she was wearing got ripped. She is practically naked. Though thanks to the armor in her hybrid form covering her body, she didn’t show her skin to the world. Though that is useless for my Divine Vision.
And no. I’m using Divine Vision to see if there’s anything changing inside her body as well. Not to see her naked. Although she’s beautiful, I only see her as my disciple. I won’t lust over her.
...it will be different if she wants to be a member of my harem. Though she has never shows me that she has any interest to become one.
Well, that doesn’t matter. Let’s grab some clothes and return after she get herself dressed.
“Maybe I’ll give you some more Blobbies to be your clothes. What do you think?” I suggested after turning around while Jewel is getting dressed.
At least it should be enough for her to transform without minding her surrounding. I don’t want her to be distracted by shyness in the middle of a fight.
“That’s good. But I want to check on the other magic clothes we have. I heard that some of them were for beastform mages so they won’t get ripped during transformation,” Jewel said.
“We have some like that? That’s good. Although I’m already an expert level summoner and able to get Victoria made tons of clones, it’s best to save them. So, you will join us in the magic items testing from tomorrow onward?” I asked.
“Yes. I also need some time to adjust to my new transformation. And if I’m lucky, I could find other type of rhinoceros monsters and I can transform into them in the future. Maybe I can still fly in the future,” Jewel said.
So, right now, she should have powerful defense, and powerful charging attack. And she has magic and physical resistance. She should be able to use earth magic now. And if she can have more abilities in the future, she would be much stronger than most people. Beastform mage is such a cheat. I hope there won’t be any beastform mage in the cult who have knowledge of the past. It will be dangerous if that’s the case.
“So, after you have adjusted to your new transformation, you will seek more rhinos?” I asked Jewel.
“Yes. As long as the cult hasn’t started their move, I want to improve myself more. If I find more of them, I will ask your help again, Master,” Jewel said.
There’s no way I can refuse my disciple’s request. Though I can just sent someone to protect her instead of going by myself.
After getting herself dressed, we return to where everyone is. The place where they are still testing the magic items we looted.
It’s already dark, so everyone is just chatting and no one is testing the magic items anymore.
“So, how was it?” Kayla asked.
“I succeeded!” Jewel replied.
Jewel then told the others who are interested about what happened. And they keep talking for another hour before we can finally return home.
The next day, our schedule is still the same. Testing more items. Though Jewel also asked for training with the others. We want to see if she has magic resistance ability or not.
I asked Shelia to test Jewel’s defense before we test her magical resistance while I will continue testing the magic weapons or Aura weapons. Though I can still watch her.
The first thing to test was Jewel’s rhinoceros form. It’s a huge rhino probably around three times the size of a normal rhino.
“Alright! Shelia, attack me!”
Jewel confidently stand there on all four preparing to receive attack from Shelia.
Shelia then didn’t swing her claw like how she usually fight. She’s throwing a punch instead. Which was weird for a werewolf. But this is a test after all.
The punch hit the left side of Jewel’s body. But Jewel didn’t react at all.
“Oh, I felt that. But It doesn’t hurt at all. Just like a tap,” Jewel said.
Hearing that remark, Shelia slightly got angry and threw consecutive punches at Jewel. But Jewel still didn’t feel anything.
“Shelia! Don’t use your fist! Use your palm! And instead of attacking Jewel’s body, think of it as a slap that will attack Jewel’s skin instead!” I advised Shelia to slap instead of punching.
Shelia listened to me and swing her hand to slap Jewel’s skin as strong as she can.
“Ow! That hurts!” Jewel screamed in pain. Though the pain shouldn’t be much, but she can still feel it.
“Jewel, rhinoceros’ skin is still a skin. It’s the largest and the most unprotected organ in your body. If the attack is targeted to your skin you will still feel pain if the damage received to your skin is more than what they can handle. You need to think of a way to cover that weakness. Though if your enemy is just an average human, you shouldn’t be able to feel any pain. But because it was Shelia who slapped you, you will of course feel pain,” I said as I grabbed the next weapon to be tested.
That is the weakness of the rhino that I found while stopping a group of Steel Rhinos yesterday. But it will still be difficult for her to feel pain from ordinary enemies.
“Oh, right. I guess I will think about that. Thank you, Master! You are the best in finding weakness as expected!” Jewel said that as if it was a huge praise.
As she said, I’m good at finding weakness. It’s because I was weak in my past life and try to exploit any kind of weakness other people showed me. Though at first it was not in battle, now I tried to see other people’s weaknesses as well even in battle.
As the weak who haven’t manifested my Aura back then, I still end up getting involved in a fight whether I wanted to or not. And so, I keep looking for everyone’s weaknesses. I guess that makes me able to perceive other people’s and my own weaknesses easily. Though I couldn’t see everything, I can still find a lot.
But that’s the best I can do. About how I can exploit those weaknesses, I’m bad at it. But this time, I have other people who will help me think how to do it with me. I hope I won’t die a stupid death like in my past life.
Jewel then continued asking Shelia to attack her in any way, and after a while, it’s time to test her magic resistance.
“Since I’m a lightning mage, I’m already capable to resist lightning magic to some degree even before I evolved. So, I can just ask Angela to attack me with each of her element,” Jewel said.
Angela then stepped forward and attacked Jewel with a Fireball. The level she used was not her strongest, but she’s still a powerful mage. That Fireball is enough to defeat advanced level mages easily. But Jewel didn’t receive much damage from Angela’s Fireball.
After that, they tested with ice magic, wind magic, and finally earth magic. For ice and wind magic, they are the same with fire magic. Only a really powerful magic can damage Jewel. But for earth magic, Jewel didn’t feel anything at all.
“Probably Steel Rhino has aptitude for earth magic. Next, how about we see if you can use earth magic in that form. After that, let’s see if your hybrid form has improved as well or not,” Kayla suggested.
Seems like they will continue testing Jewel’s capabilities for a bit longer. I guess it will take a while until we can finish testing all the magic and Aura items here.
