356 Wraiths

Knowing this Daedalus was more surprised due to the rarity of even encountering them. To Daedalus' knowledge Wraiths where created when magic was used to alter the time of the user in an attempt to become immortal, and the magic would backfire and semi-kill them. They would be left in a state of constance, and there body would rot away until it fit what was left of your soul. This was how they usually took the form of thin, skeletal beings.

Once he had considered all of this Daedalus realised that the meat wasn't unappetising like he would have expected of a wraith. At this time Ceridwen cleared her throat and said "I a.s.sume you're wondering how it looks so appealing?"

Daedalus nodded his head as he took his seat before looking back up. Ceridwen then said "The wraiths we killed where that of ancient and powerful beasts, so when they felt they where on the verge of death they sought to bring themselves back to youth. They where a powerful pair that used time magic throughout their lives and when the magic to turn them back to younger versions of themselves backfired..."

"They turned into wraiths that had different properties because of the magic they used when they where still alive." Daedalus finished. After learning all of this Daedalus had less reservations however he had one last question "What type of creatures where they?"

This time Artair responded saying sadly "They where the Great Bears and the last of their kind."

Daedalus sighed hearing this, it was clear that Artair had known them from his tone, it was sad that such a race had gone extinct now. After giving the two a moment of silence Daedalus said thank you to his aunt and uncle before eating the food.

As he finished the small feast Daedalus felt the surging of the time attributed energy and couldn't help but be surprised. He had expected it to be a relatively large amount as the meat was from two magic beasts that had focused on time based magic, however he had thought they would have used almost all of their magic to try and become youthful again.

Feeling how much time attributed energy was in his dantian Daedalus could tell that it was more than the amount of s.p.a.ce energy he had obtained before. Luckily his aunt had brought back a s.p.a.ce rabbit so his energy was pretty equaled out.

With the energy ready Daedalus felt that everything was ready and said "I need to return to my cultivation chamber, I will be starting the next step to my cultivation technique."
