Chapter 126 The Red Blood-Fire Dragon Egg

The healing potion took effect nearly immediately.

Chiron lazily stood up with his back against the wall.

Thinking hard to the memory of the MC entering this place, he touched the part of the wall the MC had touched. However, nothing happened.

He touched it several times but nothing happened.

"Did I get it wrong! or maybe its..." he looked at his clothes, and the red stain from his blood.

And then he remembered that the MC of the book was running for his life and just like his sister, he was injured.

He had touched this part of the wall with his bloody hands.

"Of course," Chiron smiled to himself.

He touched some of the blood from his shoulder and placed it on the rock.

Just like it had happened in the book, the area the blood touched glowed in a slight red color, and then the wall dematerialized open.

"Finally!" Chiron smiled.

However, just when he was about to enter, Hunter rushed into his shirt.

Chiron understood the little guy's fear.

After all, this was a dragon's egg.

The kind presence that the egg carried alone was not something that an ordinary green cored beast could handle.

Even inside his shirt, he could feel Hunter shaking in fear.

However, this was prove that what he wanted to find was in here.

He entered the passage and the entrance behind him materialized a wall once more.

The passage automatically lite up with spirit lamps.

This passage was ordinary. The only exceptional thing about it was the spirit lamps. There looked to be made entirely of gold.

It was dry and a bit stuffy in the passage. Evidence that the path had not been opened in a very long time.

Chiron moved gently. He was careful with every step he took.

Even though he knew that nothing was going to happen to him here, he had watched too many movies in his past life that had to do with treasure hunting and lonely caves for him to underestimate the dangers of one.

Just to be sure, he even used up another 5 points for another memory booster. He needed to be sure he was taking the exact same steps that the MC of the book had taken.

Eventually, he reached the end of the passage.

This time around, it was a flight of winding stairs that led down.

Once more, he followed it carefully.

He had already been in this passage for at least three hours. he knew he needed to stop and take a break, but how could he?

The excitement of power drove away any hunger or thirst.

Finally, he had reached the end. Once more, it was another wall.

He used his blood to open it once more, and the moment he did, a wave of hot air and spiritual energy pushed him back, and he hit his back against the wall.

He immediately surrounded his body with Aura as he pushed into the room.

At the time the MC of the book had come to this place, the Spirit energy was not this large.

Chiron was entering the place ten years to the prior time set by Fate.

It was only normal for them to be changes.

This was a very large room.

Or to better put it, this was the base of the dormant volcano.

Chiron felt something wet in his clothes.

Apparently that wave of spirit energy had made Hunter so scared that it had peed itself.

There was a long large stone bridge that led from where Chiron stood to the Centre point.

On either sides were drawings of a great dragon, and some of an egg.

However, Chiron could not be bother with them at the moment.

His goal was at the end of the Bridge.

On either sides of the bridge was a sea of Lava. From time to time, shoots of magma would go up. But Chiron noticed that every time some lava fell on the bridge, an energy shield would appear to protect it.

Chiron was tired, but how could he hold his curiosity anymore. His price was before his eyes.

Far off in the distance, he could see it.

The Dragon egg.

He suddenly heard a subtle call. It was low, and it came from deep within his chest to all his veins. This was a fundamental call to spirit energy that flowed within his body.

He did not suppress the call but immediately answered to it by running for the Dragon egg.

The Dragon egg was held in place by three pillars on all sides. But the Egg itself was just the height of a grown man.

It was blood red in color and it glowed in gold symbols that appeared from time to time. This symbols also glowed from time to time in seconds on the pillar.

​ This were not ordinary symbols...

This were Runes.

This dragon egg was made entirely of Runes.

Runes were known to be the foundation of Matter. It is believed that everything in the world at a basic fundamental level was made of them.

They were unbreakable rules, and the understanding of them, was in on itself a different kind of power.

It is said that one could even command the sky to become land and land to become sky if used properly.

The egg was surrounded by pillars and the pillars was surrounded by seven rings of fire.

When the MC of the book had come here, they were only about two rings of fire.

Chiron got close enough and then the moment he reached out his hand a bit, the first ring of fire immediately flowed around his body. It appeared as if the fire would consume him, but it did not.

Instead, it was welcoming and it did not burn his skin.

He smiled at this and step by step, he got closer and closer until all the rings of fire accepted him.

Next, he went for the pillars and then final, the egg.

Slowly, he placed his hand on it, and closed his eyes. It was warm and friendly to the touch.

For some reason he could not understand, he could feel a strong connection to it. He could even feel its gentle heartbeat. That was right. The dragon inside the egg, was alive.

Chiron opened his eyes in surprise, "Impossible! its alive!?"
