Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 782 Aleister's Daughter

"This is--"

Aside from Aleister, only the honey badger can continue to watch the ceremony.

When she saw the face of the thing clearly, her eyes suddenly widened.

——Is this also something that can be created?
I saw an extremely ferocious bright red monster leaping out from the one-meter-wide pool!
It looks like a slender dragon or a ferocious shark. In general, it has a slender body, a long tail, and a pair of sharp crescent-shaped wings like sickles. At the corners of the wings are a pair of thick dragon claws, which make its wings look like winged arms. And in the middle of its tail, there is a pair of sharp spikes that look like claws and feet.

Its entire body is a red color reminiscent of blood, while the thinner parts, including the wings, are a dark red color close to black.

When the monster jumped out of the silver pool, it looked no taller than half a person. Even if it straightened its long, curved tail, it was still not as tall as Selene.

It flew in the air, then landed on the ground and crawled clumsily, looking a bit like a lizard, or a shark swimming in the air.

It was bathed in moonlight, and its body was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The red body surface was similar to human muscles... dark blue dragon scales and shark skin gradually covered it, and its wildness was gradually contained. In the blink of an eye, its body size expanded by nearly half... now if it was straightened, it would be taller than Aiwass's body, about two meters long.

Aleister looked at it and felt that it looked familiar.

...It looks a bit like a combination of Land Shark and Sea Shark, which is quite handsome.

Aleister looked at the shark dragon crawling on the ground with great interest - she didn't know what to call this new monster, so she could only call it that for the time being.

"I……"

The shark dragon murmured in a low voice, making a tender and sharp cry like a baby: "Anna... why are you..."

——Those were the last words Alphonse wanted to say but didn’t have time to say.

When it uttered these words, its pupils filled with hatred, sadness, and melancholy gradually became chaotic - when the obsession was satisfied, Alphonse's personality was completely shattered and turned into nothingness.

Although it has been made into a monster and has a new personality, it obviously still has some vague memories of Alphonse. Even though it does not know what sadness is, it still lowers its head and weeps, venting its empty sadness.

Watching it cry, Aleister felt vaguely touched.

She greeted him and whispered, her voice subconsciously a little hoarse: "Come on, baby... stop crying..."

The newborn shark dragon has Aleister's blood flowing in its body, and they are related to each other - at least from the perspective of the path of love, this kinship is established.

This feeling was so strong that it made Aleister feel a little maternal love.

After all, in a sense, it can be considered the child of Aleister and Selene.

Although from this perspective, Selene is the child of Aiwass and Lily...but perhaps because of the lack of power of the path of love, Aiwass does not have any special feelings for Selene.

But now...

While Aleister was frowning and thinking, the shark dragon had already twisted its body and crawled into Aleister's arms.

The unexpectedly heavy feeling surprised Aleister for a moment: "Baby, you are so heavy..."

She lifted the shark dragon up with both hands as if she was holding a dog, and used her knee to push away its tail that it subconsciously covered, and carefully checked its gender.

"It's a female dragon. Or a female shark?"

Aleister murmured, "I understand a dragon...but why a shark?"

After all, one of the ingredients that made up this child was the liver of the Fool. And that was a genuine "dragon liver". If you only use that thing for enlightenment without adding the ashes of the Moon Child, you might get a "dragon liver spirit" - a liver that has become a spirit.

"mom, Mom, Mom……"

The shark dragon instinctively made a childish cry.

It should have some memories belonging to Alphonse, and some belonging to Sister Sasha. But in any case, it has human rationality... Although it has just been born, it already has the intelligence of a child of several years old.

Of course, she is definitely not as mature as Selene.

"We have to give her a name first."

Selene, who had just finished the ceremony, walked over holding two eyeballs that were purified by the ceremony, and said seriously: "My original name was given by Ms. Haibasha... and it was also decided by you. And now, I hope you can name it." After completing the creation of the first monster, Selene, who was willful and lively before, has now become a bit mature like a mother.

But the monster she created had no kinship with her - the most correct relationship between them was "creature" and "creator". Although she could also name it, she chose to give this power to Aleister.

Aleister's face turned bitter when he heard this: "But I don't know how to name it..."

She was part Aiwass, and must have inherited his talent for deadpan jokes when it came to naming.

——You can't really call it the Land Shark or the Sea Shark!
How about... calling her Shark?
A name popped into Aleister's mind.

Would this be too cute?

Aleister held it high, pointing it toward the moonlight in the sky, just like he was holding Simba.

She came to a state of distraction and decided to follow her instinct - use whichever one she thought of!
——Child, your name is "Random"!

At this moment, a somewhat unfamiliar name suddenly popped up in Aleister's mind.

"...Leviathan."

She suddenly said, "How about you call yourself Leviathan?"

This is an unexpectedly serious name. It has no puns, and it doesn't sound too frivolous. It's just a name that popped up in my mind, and it's easy to pronounce.

It's essentially still called "random" - Aleister thought.

The shark dragon shouted happily: "That's it, that's it——"

"Okay," Aleister said happily, "Then your full name will be Leviathan and your nickname will be Shark."

She was still a little reluctant to give up the name that popped into her mind - it was a rare opportunity to have such a nice name, so she might as well not waste it.

By now, she had completely forgotten her original motivation for creating the monster using Alphonse's ashes.

Trial? Punishment? Interrogation? Combat power?

These things may all be useful, but none of them can compare to...leaving behind a child who truly belongs to you as proof of your existence.

The extremely strong light of the path of love almost submerged Aleister's entire consciousness.

She hugged Leviathan, who was covered in the smell of blood, but she seemed to smell an extremely sweet scent and couldn't stop sniffing it on her body.

——I really want to have a bite.

This is my child, what sweet flesh and blood it must be...

This thought unconsciously emerged in Aleister's mind.

But the next moment, Aleister suddenly became alert—the power of transcendence made her slam on the brakes.

She realized instantly that the chaotic instinct of the path of love almost took control of her again.

Aleister calmed down and rubbed his face vigorously, and his boiling consciousness finally became clear again.

"Shark," Aleister hugged Leviathan again and asked softly, "Can you tell us about... Alphonse and Anna Kingsford?"

Leviathan tilted his head and searched his memory.

Then, this dragon shark, which looked like a ferocious monster from any angle, made a voice as tender as that of a giant salamander and told the story of his "66% of his past life" and his past life lover.

At this moment, the crow who stayed in the house and pretended to be a decoration suddenly opened his eyes.

The Night Demon sensed it—someone was calling her real name.

Even though the Night Demon is a god on earth, in ancient times, it was also regarded as a great demon worshipped by superstitious people. The demon itself can respond to summons, and she can further see the identity of the summoner...

——That was the voice of her former colleague, the earthbound spirit Alice.
