The Elder Anesthesia Dragon's spiritual body, encapsulated within the serpent-shaped blood fog vessel, promptly dissected the rule slave and retrieved its core for Wyatt. Handing the blood-rule slave's core to Wyatt, the dragon added a few words of encouragement, "Here, with this core and your racial talent, you should be able to ascend to the devil realm within this decade. I anticipate great things from you."
Before leaving Wyatt to practice, the dragon didn't forget to remind him, "I haven't forgotten about your customary gift on our first meeting. This rule slave's core isn't it; I have something more special. I just don't recall where I placed it in my storage space. Just give me a moment to sort through the items. Your present should be buried amidst the mess." New novel chapters are published on
"What do you mean?" the Dragon blurted out in total bewilderment. It was pleased with the sentiments Wyatt was expressing, but it had absolutely no clue about the hidden danger he was referring to.
"Your Highness, you must trust me on this. There is indeed an ominous stain contaminating your majestic body, starting from your scales—" Before Wyatt could continue, the Dragon thundered, "Again with that nonsense!"
Wyatt didn't back down, understanding that the Elder Anesthesia Dragon plans to rely on the World Calamity Tree to extend its sleeping stage so it would never kill him. He continued his act, adding, "Your Majesty, even if it risks angering you, I must speak the truth. You could kill me, and I wouldn't mind, as my life was granted by you. However, you must listen to me. You may have already noticed that my eyes possess a unique ability. They reveal to me that your scales' aura is being tainted by an ominous stain. If left unchecked, who knows what peril it may bring upon you."
"You... you..." The Elder Anesthesia Dragon was speechless, at a loss for words on how to counter Wyatt's assertions. If the World Calamity Tree had rebelled, the Dragon could have employed force to subdue it. However, seeing that the World Calamity Tree was willing to risk its life out of concern for him, who was accustomed to getting his way as an apex loner through force, now found himself unsure of how to handle the current situation.
"Your Majesty, you can punish me later as you see fit for my impertinence. But if you are willing to grant me a scale of yours, I can show you what I am talking about," Wyatt spoke passionately, his voice filled with so much emotion that it struck an emotional chord in the dragon's heart, a chord that hadn't been touched for ages.
Listening to Wyatt's words the Elder Anesthesia Dragon was moved to the point where it momentarily set aside its vanity and agreed to Wyatt's selfless request. "Very well, but if you fail to substantiate your claims, you are never to bring up this matter again," It stipulated firmly, willing to part with one of its magnificent scales of its own accord.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I could never betray your trust in me," Wyatt expressed enthusiastically, appearing grateful for the Dragon's agreement to his request.
