Chapter 365 - 365: Chances & Recovery

"Me, alone!? Less than 5% I would say!"

"Hhahahaha~! You think that you even have a 5% that is quite funny, boy! I would say that you don't even have 1%!"

"Oh~! Come on~! You don't have to be that harsh, do you!? You are talking about your future husband after all!"

"Boy, you think that 1% is going to work against me!? Aren't you a bit delusional!?"

"Wifey I am really worried about your future, you are too hasty! You didn't listen to me until the end! Those were my chances if I do that alone, but I am not alone, am I?"

"Huh!? What do you mean!?"

"Stop pretending wifey, you already know that there is someone inside my Conscience Sea that already has an equals contract with me!

Now I don't know much about her or her past, but I think that she has been quite the character back in her place, otherwise, the Divine Artifact wouldn't have recognized her don't you think?

And I doubt that she would want to die without having her wishes, and goals completed! So we are two against one wifey.

While you might have been a powerful dragon, and I don't even know how you managed to transfer your Soul Avatar in the egg that was supposed to be your child, right now you don't possess that strength.

So, I would say that with the help of my first wifey, my chances of breaking through whatever plan you have is clearly at 51% at least!

With these chances I think it would be much better for both of us if you quickly accept me as your hubby and help me with goodwill."

"Hmph~!"

The Dragon Empress just harrumphed coldly and said nothing more, as she wasn't in the mood to do so.

Eric had known almost from the start that the beauty inside the Dragon Egg wasn't someone that was truly on his side.

In the real world, even if you want to beg, you should have enough strength to do so. Otherwise even begging is impossible.

Right now, Eric was just like a beggar in front of a very rich woman, the only thing he had going for him, that was part of his strength was his equals contract with the beauty of the Legacy System.

And his potential! But even his potential was extremely low at the moment, as Earth was extremely poor compared to the Origin World.

Even if he was the richest man on Earth, and had the whole Earth in control, compared to the Origin World he would still be nothing more than a little beggar.

So, even though that he knew it was extremely shameless and even cowardly to use the method he was using, he had no other choice.

He had to put his first wife, and his second wife at loggerheads with each other for the time being, and only reclaim peace when he was assured of their intentions.

Most probably if the two ladies knew about his thoughts at the moment, instead of going against each other they would gather against him, but luck was on his side, as one of them was tied to him.

With the equals contract in motion, he knew that his life and his short-term future were guaranteed, so he could have peace of mind.

But he had to use this short-term future, in order to show not only his potential but also to reach the highest level of strength possible for him.

Thinking like that, he decided to concentrate fully on the recovery of his body but suddenly was reminded of something extremely important.

Opening his eyes outside, he quickly took out a Medium quality Health Potion handing it over to Ice, and then said,

"Give this to that guy and keep watch over the place! I think that I will be ready in 3 to 4 hours top, but if something happens come and wake me up!"

Since none of the two of them had controlled their strength and their punches, it was more than normal for them to attract quite the attention, and soon this place would be like a beehive.

Thinking like that, Eric wanted to make more preparations, but unfortunately, right now he wasn't in the position, or the situation to do something like that.

For that reason, he could only do what he had to do at this point, which was making sure he recovered as fast as possible.

As for the giant dude, the reason he gave him just a Medium quality Health Potion was because he knew from the formation he got from the Dragon Empress that he had great recovering abilities.

This dude seemed like a wonder of nature as he truly had some cheat-like abilities and strength. On top of that, he wasn't just brawns either, as he even had the brains to accompany his strength.

Who said that giant dudes who could make perfect shields would have to be all brawns but no brains, clearly this guy defied that logic.

What he failed to think through was that even such an existence like that giant dude was still beaten by Eric himself. So if he was a cheat-like existence then what was Eric himself!?

Eric's thoughts were stopped there though, as he immediately knocked himself out in order to let his recovery ability work instinctively at top speed.

Normally he would do that consciously, as that way he would also learn more about his body, and his cultivation, but right now he didn't have time.

While that way he was going to learn more about his body, and would better control himself, it was still something that would tarry his recovery process.

It was the difference between a well-thought action and an instinct. While the well-thought action guaranteed better results, the instinct guaranteed better speed, and that was what he needed now.

Furthermore, even if something happened at that moment, he had complete confidence that his wifey, the Dragon Empress would wake him up.

While they had their standings and their plans, they both knew that his death was against their best interests at that point.

For that reason, he could calmly fall unconscious and let his own body work miracles and recover as fast as it could.

…

He didn't know for how long he had been unconscious but suddenly he heard the voice of the Dragon Empress call out to him,

"Wake up, you have guests! That little girl won't be able to stop them no matter how hard she tries!"

Hearing those words Eric immediately opened his eyes and jumped on his feet while having a look at his own body.

He was surprised to see that he had recovered more than 70%! If he went through the same process while controlling it himself he estimated that he could only go about 40-45%.

This was a good proof of showing that his spirit power and Soul Avatar were still extremely lacking, in front of the primary information, and natural reaction that his body had.

While in this case he was saved as he had Ice to protect this place while he was unconscious, the next time things wouldn't be so good.

He had to make sure that he improved in this direction, otherwise who knew what might happen the next time.

With those thoughts in mind, he slowly walked up towards the giant dude, and checking his body he found out that this guy was even more perverted than himself in terms of recovery.

He had recovered about 90% of his primary condition, making him think that it was against any kind of natural process.

Soon, in about 15 minutes, he would fully recover and wake up by himself, but unfortunately, they didn't have the time, so Eric gave him a good slap on his left cheek, saying,

"Wake up you damn servant! How dare you sleep when your Master is awake, and we have guests to entertain!"

The giant dude woke up with a startle, as he immediately started cursing,

"Who the fu*ck dares to slap this daddy!"

But the next moment realization came upon him, as he remembered the fight he had with Eric, and then the words that Eric told him when he awakened him with the slap.

Immediately his face went red in anger and shame, as he asked,

"Who is your servant!?"

"You are! Don't tell me that you bastard are so shameless that you will not accept your own oath and promises!"

"You are shameless! Your whole family is shameless! Who said that I won't accept my oaths and promises!?

I will certainly do!"

With that said, he didn't wait for Eric to say anything extra as he kneeled in one knee, spit some blood on his left hand, drew a circle on his heart, as he said,

"I, Darren Bo, accept you as my Master for the rest of my life, to become your shield and sword, whenever Master needs me!

Only my death can absolve me from this oath!"

The moment he said that the symbol he drew on his chest with his own blood seeped into his skin and disappeared, but Eric could already feel the connection with him.

It seemed like this giant dude wasn't bad, in fact, he was quite the man. But he wouldn't praise him so soon, as he said,

"Are you trying to cheat me, you damn brainless giant! I recall having said that your name is Golden Panda! How come you use that name!?"

The face of Darren went completely dark for a moment, but then he could only sigh, and say,

"Sigh~! That was my name until today, from now on I will be called Golden Panda!"

"Hum~! Very well, at least you are able to understand me when I speak! Now prepare to greet our guests!"

"Hu..~!?"

The giant dude was unable to continue his words, as suddenly the whole place was covered in dust…
