What Min did was a shuffle between principle of Bleu magic and Mythical magic. As a dragon, his entire body stored condense mana so it is similar to a huge mana heart. Unlike Bleu magic, he did not flow the mana pass through his body. He use his imagination to control the flow of mana particles using the condense mana inside his body.
He control the mana from environment to accumulate in one place,_instead of flowing inside his body and accumulating as condense mana in his body_as the mana particulates accumulate in one space, it increase in power but under
Min's control the power is stable and mana particles form a mana mass. Then he release the energy from mana mass to shoot out a powerful energy blast. He did the same for mana mass shield.
He did that unintentionally while he was re-thinking about magic principles he heard before and what Zar said about Mythical magic
He found out a way to use magic_ although unintentionally first later he had clearly discovered the principles of his magic as he repeat a few time what he did earlier_ but this time with a calm mind and observing the magic in details.
He step out from the cave_ as he understood his magic more, the mind is filled with excitement and experiments_ he want to test out something in his mind.
He spread his wings wide, close his eyes and feel the condense mana in his body_ he imagine his wings move to his front legs and fuse with it forming powerful front wings with claws at it joint.
The body followed the mind _ his wings slowly move forward and now he has front wings and hind legs_ his scale turn black and thorny spikes protrude along his spine _ the features of wyvern he shoot out earlier.
He shout out loud but instead of a majestic roar of a dragon, a high pitch sound came out, the cry of a wyvern.
" Yo....you.. you shapeshift into a wyvern?????"
Zar cannot believe her eyes _what she was seeing is something that would never be appear inside her dream.
Min smiled and looked at the result of his expirement_if the condense mana is what make the body of mythical creatures and they can control it, what if he control his condense mana to change his body to another creatures body. Will it be effective or not _ but the result show positive.
Min cannot release condense mana in his body as other mythical creatures but he can control it freely inside his body_ he cannot absorb the environmental mana into his body and change it_ like in Bleu magic_ but he can control the flow of it _at outside_ freely.
So where did the condense mana come from that make his body a dragon , mythical creature_ that may be another experiment to find out but currently he has no theory to test_ so let's find out that later.
"Zar I felt a familiar feeling from the center of this forest_ did you know anything there that should alert my attention?"
"That must be the divine tree_ every 1000 years the divine tree in the middle of this forest give rise to a single fruit_which contains so much pure divine energy that one can ascend to kinghood of his kind if he eat_ dragon king if a dragon eat, griffin king if griffin eat. Now is the time the fruit ripen so it attract strong mythical creatures."
" So why did you not go there too?"
" I am not powerful enough to feel it's present and even if I felt it's present it is not easy to even get near."
" The divine tree become alive when it bear the fruit and protect it_ like a mother protecting her child."
" Many gave up their lives trying to reach it but over last 5000 years no one has ever manage to touch even the tree_ far away to touch fruit. After 2 years if no one manage to take the fruit, the tree itself eat its fruit and go unactive for next 1000 years_ and the circle repeat."
I will teach you my magic if you pledge your loyalty to me, you can take your territory too. I had to do something else so I cannot stay here a long time.
Zar bowed down her head and take a scale from her chest.
" I pledge my loyalty to you my lord, this is my scale nearest to my heart_ accept this as a token of loyalty."
Min transform back to dragon form and stretch out his hand to take the scale but as soon as his claws touch the scale it shines with silver colour and flew back to Zar's chest.
" Now that you have mark my scale my life is in your hand."
" You can control that scale to stop my heart if I ever betrayed you."
Min no longer surprised_ after all it's a magical world so magical things can be seen a lot_ right.
He teach the principles to Zar ans she somehow manage to form mana mass but cannot perform others as Min.
May be she needs a little time to practice.
So he left her to practice and take care of territory and headed towards the center of forest again.
