Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Above the immortal lied the real and rare hegemony stage. As for the legendary sovereign stage that was just a mere fantasy to achieve it.

"Step by step," he reminded himself as just thinking about this long road made his soul restless, "I'll achieve a much higher pinnacle than the one I once did… just I need time and patience."

He returned to his regular breathing while time passed fast here. This world was really unique and he started to reap the benefits of being here just a few hours after starting his training.

"Nascent soul stage seven," he muttered before continuing his training, refusing to celebrate now.

"Nascent soul stage eight."

"Nascent soul stage nine."

"Nascent soul stage ten."

Finally and just less than a day before he could leave this world he managed to reach the pinnacle of the nascent soul stage. He didn't stop training though he knew breaking through this would be quite risky.

"Tribulation…" he sighed while opening his eyes as the voice alarmed him, "I need to consider this while choosing the right time to break through."

He now wasn't in a good position in the outer world. His forces were still weak, his base was fragile, and his enemy was still mysterious and unfathomed to him.

Adding more variables to the game would turn things to the worse for sure. So he decided to refrain from breaking through now.

"You can leave if you wish," the voice said.

"I'll come back," Arthur went towards the place he came from before turning to glance aimlessly, "I promise."

"Sigh, just be safe and don't get yourself killed kid," the voice seemed to like Arthur but the latter didn't put these words in his mind as he took his sword and activated his technique once again.

Then he moved through the membrane like shield and re-entered the lightning world once more.

From peace and tranquility into the heart of the fire Arthur moved with a sudden shocking change in the scenery.

Yet he was well prepared. He never let the calm atmosphere inside to fool him or dull his senses and the fighting soul was still ignited as sharply as ever.

He kept waving his sword and he felt slight improvement in the strength of his attacks, but not big enough to cause a big difference.

So he had each time to receive the thick lightning tongue just a few inches above his head. Failing meant instant death, he was pretty much sure of this.

Yet he never thought about anything, just waving his sword, just anticipating the next strike to defend.

And finally after hours of flying this way he managed to exit this horrible place without a single scratch.

'C'mon, tell me what happened!'

Since the moment he exited that heaven prison he wasn't welcomed with lightning and dark clouds alone, but with the shouting voice of Gege who tried to check over him and understand what happened.

And he simply chose to ignore her until he exited that restricted zone.

"Can't you calm down until I get out? Do you want me dead?!!" he was finally able to vent over her and his bellow of rage didn't manage to stop her.

'Cold dragon! I was so much worried about you during the past day and the first thing you say is to shout at me? I hate you!'

"Sigh," Arthur couldn't help but stay silent while the golden dragon said:

'You suddenly disappeared and we couldn't connect to you in any way. Plus there was some kind of strange aura… it was something I never saw before.'

'Ding! What happened?' the system asked, 'Ding! Is there any form of energy that blocked us?'

"Just wait in line and I'll tell you what happened," Arthur couldn't help but shake his head before glancing around, "wait a minute… this isn't the place I came from, right?"

'Humph, as if I would ask the tree about that,' Gege was still mad.

"C'mon my dear, you can read my mind and already know what happened," Arthur faintly smiled as he stopped flying before turning to glance at that enormous zone covered with black clouds and thick lightning.

'Humph, I'll do this for you just for this time only,' Gege's rage became softer while adding, 'you exited in the opposite direction of the one you came from. Plus she has news about your beloved girl.'

"That Amanda?" he hurriedly asked, "c'mon, tell me what happened?"

'Nah,' Gege said in a teasing tone like a little girl, 'first you tell and then I say.'

"Gege, this isn't a time to play and fool around," Arthur hurriedly turned around and started to fly around the cloud in a very long journey to go back.

'I won't speak until you say everything.'

"She might have done something bad, do you want me to suffer?"

'It's your fault to fall for pretty wicked girls, and this news isn't bad but something good for you.'

"Oh, are you saying you are a wicked girl?"

'I'm not!' Gege shouted before realizing something, 'wait, do you mean…'

"Hahaha, sorry I only fall for wicked ones, hahaha," it was his time to tease her.

'Stop flirting with you two little birds,' the golden dragon laughed, 'c'mon tell us what happened first and then we can discuss Amanda's matter.'

Arthur started to narrate what happened while flying back towards the direction of his nearby city.

"Now you know everything that happened, what about the fake Amanda?"

'We found out what she is trying to do there,' the golden dragon confidently said and his tone told Arthur there was more than this.

"And?"

'Ding! We also found out one weakness about her.'

"Weakness?" the eyes of Arthur shone brightly before adding, "Oh tell, I always say I would never be defeated having you by my side."

'Liar, you never said that!' Gege laughed.

'You never did,' the golden dragon agreed.

'Ding! Don't try to coat your words with us, we know you better,' the system said in a harsh way.
