23 The Dragon Empire Rises (1/2)
Waking up Three Suns finds himself surrounded by The Dragon Emperor, Goddess Valara, Goddess Freya, Goddess Heather, Goddess Lillie, and Goddess Rose, While Timothy is carrying him on his back and Vincent behind Timothy. ”What.. What happened while I was knocked out Timothy! The last thing I remember is the Monster King Alba going berserk when we injured him, my arm.. yes my arm was swallowed whole by that beast.” Shaking his head he looks up ahead seems he was saved from death, he then pats Timothy on the shoulder to let him know he is awake. Realizing his hand is not gone he stares blankly at Vincent for answers as the three of them stop for a moment letting him recover.
”Goddesses Lillie and Rose specialize in medical techniques I have never seen before. they saved us from death, as for your arm they used a method I never seen before to regrow it.”
”I heard they are learning pill refinement as well. Just imagine the things they will be able to do, in the entire Blood Sun Continent there are very few Weapon Smiths and Pill Refiners. They came here not knowing anything at all about our methods but now they have surpassed those Tier 2 Pill Refiners. Our Empire now has two Tier 5 Pill Refiners and they are training others in the art, while we also have the Weapon Smith Goddess Samantha, she can already craft Heaven Level weapons.”
Timothy, Three Suns, Vincent start talking about the future as they move with the Army and the ten thousand plus Villagers, making there way out of Dark Moon Forest after destroying the Cult of Saint Charles. Three Suns pauses for a moment looking at Timothy he ask. ”Where is Alba? Did they kill him when they saved us!?”
laughing at his late question about the Monster King who nearly killed them both Timothy points to the cage directly under Lady Heather. ”They kept him alive on my request, we almost killed him and so I have made it so he will die by our hands! Three Suns you risked your very life to try and save me and I would be a fool to leave you behind my friend.”
This battle forged a deep friendship between the three during this near death experience. Three Suns the strongest of the three could feel himself on the verge of a breakthrough, but he could feel a force suppressing his breakthrough into the Heaven Realm. ”Seems the Calamity that wiped out our beloved Continent long ago is still lingering it is stopping my Breakthrough.” Three Suns lets both Vincent and Timothy know about his growth during this last battle. ”We should inform the Emperor of the Ruins of the Blood Sun Empire, I am sure that is the reason I can not Breakthrough.”
Both Vincent and Timothy agreed, to become stronger to protect the people they had to find out why the Ruins restricted only humans from breakthroughs.
