77 Chapter 77

I didn't know who this little girl who was calling me little brother was but I could feel the sheer amount of power radiating from her small body with my Dragon Sense.

I was sure that I would not be able to defeat her even if I used every single ounce of my power. This was something I had never felt ever since I had gained my powers from Spider Supreme.

But then again, I believe it was something to be expected. If Spider Supreme could give me such incredible powers just for research, he was sure to have even more powerful people with him.

Fortunately, she didn't seem to have any hostile intentions towards us. I could even feel some sort of familiarity with her but I didn't know why.

"Excuse me. Who are you and why are you calling Peter 'little brother'? After all, you look even younger than him." Ms. Ororo questioned as she heard the girl's absurd way of addressing me.

Ms. Ororo, I know you are looking out for me as my teacher but you don't understand what kind of existence this little girl is.

"Who are you calling little girl, huh? I am several times older than you." The little girl said angrily as she heard Ms. Ororo's words.

"So, you do admit Melusine that you are an old grandma." Spider Supreme said teasingly to the girl who was apparently named Melusine. It was quite an iconic name, clearly one I had never heard before.

"Ow!!" Melusine didn't say anything in response to Spider Supreme's teasing and instead punched him lightly on his side causing him to yelp.

"I don't need to tell you that my race doesn't have any concept of age. As such, I am forever young." Melusine said in a self righteous tone.

"Why are you here, Spider Supreme? And who is this girl?" Ms. Ororo asked once again upon receiving no answer to her question.

"Unfortunately, that is something I can only answer to Peter, Ororo Munroe. So, you have to go." Spider Supreme suddenly snapped his fingers and both Ms. Ororo and Magneto disappeared before my eyes.

No way! Was that spatial displacement? How did Spider Supreme perform it so smoothly that I couldn't perceive the slightest ripple?

"You don't need to worry about them. I sent both of them back to X-Mansion." Spider Supreme said, assuring me that both of them were alright.

There were a lot of things I wanted to ask Spider Supreme but first I needed to say something to him.

"Thank you for saving my life." I thanked him because if it was not for him, I won't even be here. I could thank him freely now that we were alone.

"Hey! Enough of that kind of serious talk. Focus on this big sis of yours. Do you know how much hard it was for me to get him to take me along?" Melusine said with a pout.

"Why do you call yourself my big sister?" I asked the biggest question currently on my mind.

"Have you ever had a vision about the dragon from which your powers are descended?" Melusine asked.

"Yes, I had seen it in a dream. It was a giant dragon of unimaginable size with shining white scales. Moreover, I had even seen how it died in the dream." I answered.

"That dragon was Albion. It is a dragon from Irish and British mythology. Although there are several variations about how powerful that dragon was, the version of Albion from which your powers came from was actually much more stronger than any description of it.

You must have already felt how powerful it was in your dreams. Albion was a primordial dragon, powerful enough to go toe to toe with gods and even kill them."

Gods actually exist in this world! And this dragon was capable of killing them. I was shocked by Spider Supreme's description of Albion.

"And I was born from Albion's corpse after it died. In fact, it was because of his research on me that Spider Supreme could create the serum which granted you this power. Since you used the serum which contained Albion's DNA, you are therefore my little brother." Melusine cheerfully explained why I was her little brother.

"Can you release your full power, Peter? I need to analyse your body to see how much it has adapted to your powers. Also, remove your suit. It will obstruct the analysis." Spider Supreme asked for my cooperation.

"Sure!" I complied with his orders and transformed into my draconic form after switching to my casual clothes.

"Let's see what is your condition." Spider Supreme casted a spell which started analysing the condition of my body.

"Hmm… You have achieved control over your rampant instincts quite fast. Very good! Overall, the synchronisation of your body with the Saint Graph is quite great, especially considering its condition." Spider Supreme said after completing the analysis, saying a word I couldn't understand the meaning of, 'Saint Graph'.

"What is Saint Graph?" I asked since I didn't know what it meant.

"It is the foundation of your dragon powers. You can think of it as a spiritual program inside your soul which contains your powers. It is what transforms your body and grants you these powers." Spider Supreme explained.

Well this explained why Rogue couldn't absorb my powers. It was because her powers were biological in nature while mine were actually spiritual.

"But was it really necessary to leave the Saint Graph with just barebones?" Melusine said as she suddenly appeared besides me and poked my body.

"Just look at him. Although his strength and attack are passable, he has got no speed. How can I call him my little brother with just this much speed?" Melusine complained.

"This much power is just the barebones!" I was shocked to hear that my Saint Graph was only barebones as even with this much power, I had never met my match till now.

"Yes, it is actually barebones. When I had grafted the Saint Graph into your body with the Albion Serum, I had only provided it just enough energy to barely function. I would say that you are only using about 10% of its true power currently." Spider Supreme said, shocking me once again.

"Well, that explains why I only had this much power when Albion was so powerful." This fact was shocking but it actually explained a lot of my questions.

"As for Melusine's question, it was extremely important to leave the Saint Graph with only this much power as it was after all the Saint Graph of a dragon. If it was at its full power, Peter would have turned into an actual dragon instead. Peter, you must have felt a surge of wild instincts inside you once you woke up, right?" Spider Supreme questioned.

"How can I forget about that time? It felt like my body was not my own. It took me months to finally have my body fully under my control." I still shuddered whenever I thought about those times.

"Those wild instincts were due to the power of a dragon seeping into your body through the Saint Graph. If your Saint Graph had been at full power, it would have turned you into a mindless, berserk dragon." Spider Supreme explained the true potential of the Saint Graph inside my body.

"Then, I thank you once again for your consideration." I thanked him once again because such meticulousness deserved praise especially when the test subject was my body.

"However, the time has finally come to amplify the power of your Saint Graph. I have found a way to increase the power of your Saint Graph without turning you into a dragon. This will do the job!" Spider Supreme explained the reason for his appearance here and revealed something from his suit.

"A card!"

*********************************

So, my dear readers! Did you like the way I dealt with the origin of Peter's powers? An empty Saint Graph will make Peter slowly grow stronger and also make the story more interesting.

After all, if Peter's Saint Graph was at full power, he would be too much overpowered and the story will not be much interesting in the future. After Peter's powers are enhanced, I would say that he would be around Thor and Hulk in terms of power.

Also, that card is unfortunately not a Class Card but still it is something close to it.
