2024-10-29 19:42:56The one who spoke this time was Demion, the youngest of all the retainers; and the 3rd strongest retainer.
I had recruited him when he was just a Dragonight probably at the age of 100 years. I was on a mission issued to me by king to subdue some rebel dragons and that is when I encountered a young Dragon at the peak stage of Dragonight realm.
Considering he belonged to the noble family, their eggs took at least 100 years to hatch and another 100 year or so for dragonling to evolve depending on the talent. That is why I could tell he was rare even among the geniuses to have come this far.
But the thing that attracted my attention was that he was being hunted by the most powerful leader's family the 1st family.
Intrigued by how the situation will unfold, I followed him from the shadow; saw him fight against other dragonight and even dragon lord realm soldiers with sword in his hands and without turning into his true dragon form.
The first family had the ability to control flames to the degree that made them one of the most powerful force in the dragon realm, and this young dragon with his unrefined skill was pushing back even Dragon lord, but no matter how hard he would fights the outcome was already decided.
I had a general idea of what had happened for him to end up in his current situation, because I had seen the same incident happening recently.
Few days ago there was a competition held in the capital which came once in every 10,000 years.
The competition was called 'Battle for supremacy' in which, an opportunity was given to every dragon in the dragon realm to prove their strength.
In this event many different fights were convened.
The ranking of leaders is changed every time based on their strength, many challenges are accepted, sometimes leaders are also changed based on war based model between two families.
Apart from that there are many Dragon in the dragon realm who are awarded a unique title given by king himself due to their deeds or strength, and there are many dragons who challenge the title holder in hopes of snatching there titles.
Then there is an individual fight in which a dragon has to face unknown number of challenges and the last standing dragon receives a chance to wish anything he desires at the discretion of king.
This is the method through which I had asked the king to grant me the whole moon as my domain because with it came many privileges which were necessary for my future plans. I would have asked for him to release me from my soul contract or to release me from the duties of guardian, but only if it would have been that easy.
In this battle for supremacy there were thousands of matches conducted but one particular match drew my attention.
because it was for the title of one of the strongest leader's seat, the first leader. It was not only that but the challenger was none other than the vessel family who issued the challenge.
It was common occurrence for this type of power struggle to occur in this events but the reason for my interest was something else.
I knew 1st leader personally because he was one of the top candidate in my kill list when I achieve my freedom, so I was definitely interested in the match.
And the match was certainly the most entertaining match I had ever seen because the challenger has pushed 1st leader to the limit of his capabilities.
In the match the challenger has fought in his hybrid form with a sword in his hands and pushed first leader to transform into his true dragon form and yet he was winning until his composure full of momentum broke.
For something like that to happen in this crucial moment, it could only mean that someone has pulled some underhanded tricks to threaten the challenger, I didn't know who, maybe first leader himself or it could also be king. In the realm where everyone praises and promotes strength above all, such methods were unacceptable but there was nothing in my power that I could do at that time.
Seeing the young dragon wielding a sword and fighting for his life, it reminded me of that warrior who was fighting that day, with sword in his hands.
I too had pursued the path of sword and I could tell that the challenger has invested an unimaginable amount of time refining his skill for what reason, to die in front of whole dragon race becoming victim to someone's plot.
Thinking this i didn't only felt pity but also came to know how weak I was. But not everything has lost and fate has presented me with another opportunity.
And so I rescued the young dragonite Demion that day. The only survivor of his family, which was annihilated by first leader after the end of event. I could understand his hatred for the first family because the Dragon monarch that died in that battle was his father.
"It won't be for long." Andrew said trying to console him but Demion has shrugged his king gesture in annoyance.
"I don't need anyone's pity." He looked toward me turning his hatred into his strength, I knew he was ready to face 1st leader and therefore he will be coming with me to the tower.

The atmosphere changed the moment the Z ranked beast had stepped foot out of portal, the sky began to turn red and sweat started to gather on the faces of all retainers. An X ranked beast has already been termed as the pinnacle of beast evolution in the universe, they were held as king of beasts each possessing uncommon ability and intelligence. But Z ranked beast whose existence was unknown to many, I knew what status they possessed even among beast. They were held as gods, not only having unique ability and intelligence but also having understanding of law, the rules that governs this world. "Are you certain you want to utilize that favor now?" He asked. "Yes." I said nodding my head. He was one of the trump card I had saved in order to deal with uncertainties kings would have planned. He was the only beast I couldn't subdue but killing him in past seemed too troublesome and wasteful and therefore I had told him to help me once when I need him. And this was certainly the situat
The Throne of Sovereignty Chapter 8 The meeting (1)
I teleported outside the capital's outer boundary because the whole capital was surrounded by Anti teleportation array and other defensive measures in order to prevent any attack on the city. It was more like an impenetrable fortress than city. The Royal guards standing outside the gate sensing my presence opened the gates for me and sent the message to the main palace of my arrival. It was quite a hassle to travel from outer wall to the main palace in flying vehicles which took half an hour but nothing can be done about it. I could reach faster by flying but it was the process everyone has to follow. The flying vehicle was like a giant white egg, which used either mana crystal or Users own mana to fly from one place to another. It was faster and comfortable mode of travel at the speed which brock the sound barrier. It also helped in avoiding the accidents of Dragons crashing into each other while flying and fighting over it. From outside people couldn't see who was inside the veh

"We greet the Guardian." The present 6 leaders and 1 guardian stood on their seats and greeted me by folding their hands. Even if they didn't like it, it was an unspoken law in dragon realm to respect those stronger than you, nobody knew who created it but it was imprinted in the genes of every dragon since its birth."It is an honor for me as well, please take your seat." I said walking past them taking the seat designated for me.The conference room was not any less majestic than the Throne room of king where he had his seat high above all the other leaders which indicated his position. One level beneath him was two seats reserved for Guardian and then there were ten seats facing each other in two rows.Sometimes I thought if he had to make conference room look like throne room why even bother building one.But it indicated the king's pride that we will never be able to sit on same level as him. But nobody was unaware of his fake prestige which he always tried to maintain, why else

The Throne of Sovereignty Chapter 11 Draconic weapons
Dragons had always placed all other species beneath them and therefore tried as much as not to rely on them. In the past when the discovery of beast core was made along with that, many other inventions came to light. Beast cores were more potent source of mana than mana crystal which naturally formed in the place rich of mana. At that time it was discovered that with the help of beast core weapons can also be made with some of the beast ability intact, which was the great boost in power of Dragon. But the noble dragons disliked the weapon made by beast core, it was disgusting for them even to hold such weapons in their hands and therefore a new method of weapon forging was invented and such weapon were termed as draconic weapons. In this method instead of using the beast core the dragon heart was used as the main source of power. The higher the realm of dragon heart the powerful the weapon. The dragon heart was basically a hard stone like object in the body of every dragon, it was

When the meeting was finished king stood up from his throne and walked in front followed by two guardians and six leaders. The guardian walking alongside me looked toward me for a moment and then turned to look at kings back, his eyes were grey hallow in which if someone stares they would only see endless abyss. Unlike me and my predecessors who even after signing contract with king indirectly opposed him, the Guardian Samuel and his family has wholeheartedly devoted their lives to king. He was quite troublesome to deal with; His ability could nullify all other abilities. Any ability based attack was useless against him and therefore only physical attack could be used to defeat him. But he has thoroughly covered his weakness, his physical prowess were one of the best in dragon realm. Thinking this and following king's lead we arrived outside the castle where king's battleship of was stationed for us in which we would depart only till outside the capital.

When I stepped foot on the other side of the portal, I was greeted with scorching heat and endless desert. Once I stepped out of the portal it vanished behind me and I was able to see the desert view and conditions engraved in the sand to leave the desert few steps ahead of me. I always encountered something new in the tower, sometime some holographic screen would appear in front of me or sometimes I received the instruction telepathically. [Acquire the Astral stone in order to proceed to next floor.] [Use of weapon is permitted.] [Use of Void abilities for fight is not permitted.] [Clear the floor within 2 days.] And as expected the conditions were outrageous as always. In this big desert of which I couldn't even see the end, I was supposed to find a stone and why was the tower certain that I would encounter fight. Astral stone were one of the rarest stones even in the dragon realm, most of them I had seen were in king's crown and smaller one's in leader's rings. They were ro

I said sensing the eagerness of beasts to fight the leader tailing us.Out of the two beasts who were accompanying me one of name was rhino. He was a 20 meter tall muscular humanoid beast. His skin was so though that I doubt even demion's sword could pierce his skin and he had a 3 meter long sharp horn protruding from his head because of this feature he resembled a humanoid rhino but his ability lies somewhere else.The other beast, he was a spider type beast initially but after evolving into an X ranked

[Void Slash]Swishhhh…A silent wind passed between me and morris. When I lowered the sword [Aurora], there was nothing but empty space between me and morris but I had to face a great difficulty cutting the empty air because I was not only cutting the air but space itself.There were many conditions which needed to be satisfied to perform this technique and one of them was to have an unbreakable sword. If I had tried to perform this attack with my sword [Punisher] it would have broken halfway through because this 12th sword technique put that much pressure on the user and sword.There were very few known swords in the dragon realm, which were capable of cutting space without breaking, one of them was [Aurora] in my hand and other was king Azmath's draconic weapon.Right now what I was using was not a void based ability but a realization of small part of law of void I have gained with the help of Lord Alex and its compatibility with my sword technique.This ability on top of consuming
