Chapter 1108 Cap 1106: Adoption



It was strange for me to be in the presence of the Dragon God and not feel any of his presence, maybe this mental projection thing can't convey his Divine presence or he just doesn't want to use his position of higher power to force a positive response from me, he must want me to accept your request willingly. 

"I don't think any other Dragon would accept his proposal." (I) 

"No, they wouldn't be wrong either, everyone who surrounded this boy were fools who betrayed their own race, his very existence while still alive will be a reminder about this event that brings shame and anger to all True Dragons." (God Akatosh) 

"Since I don't care about this event in question, you came to me with this request?" (I) 

"It wasn't such a simple decision." (God Akatosh) 

"How much do you know about Dragon Seals?" (God Akatosh) 

"Just what Arash left me before he left months ago." (I) 

"So just the essentials." (God Akatosh) 

"Dragon Seals are created using the power and Authority of a Dragon King, they allow Dragon-type Monsters to become True Dragons, and they can also transform some individuals of other compatible races into Dragons with a little effort." (God Akatosh) 

"Only Dragon Emperors are able to gather the power of other Dragons and generate a Dragon Seal that has characteristics different from their own." (God Akatosh) 

I remember the first time Karina created the first 4 Dragon Seals inside that Dungeon, the same happened after I defeated that Demon Dragon this time, I know that Karina was responsible for that, I don't know how she did it, but I remember hear your voice vaguely. 

"But I've never created a Dragon Seal with just my own power." (I) 

"The amount of power needed is very large, not counting the effort for it, in the past you didn't have the qualifications to try, using the power of others ignored your shortcomings at the time, but this was only possible due to the Chaos you embody. " (God Akatosh) 

"But the point here isn't that, the Dragon Seal you create still carries a portion of its power and Authority, thanks to the element of Chaos within your Dragon Seals, not limitations on who can receive your Dragon Seals." (God Akatosh) 

"The changes in their appearances, races, Auras, and so on are also greater than normal, you literally transform their body completely." (God Akatosh) 

"I think I understand what you're getting at." (I) 

It seems that I have done something more drastic than usual without realizing it and he wants exactly that, he wants to change the body, Aura, and everything possible of this Dragon of Light, he wants to give him a new life so that he will not be recognized by others Dragons. 

"Why do you work so hard for him, it doesn't cost me much to help that Dragon, I can also get something in return for that since I will have another True Dragon by my side, but what do you get out of it?" (I) 

"I don't earn anything, that's the nature of a God." (God Akatosh) 

"We are those who guide mortals when they so wish to follow a path." (God Akatosh) 

"Before going against his own father, this boy prayed to me for strength knowing he had no power to stop Rhaegal, he asked for my guidance and today I give a way so that he can still live." (God Akatosh) 

"Very well, but what is it?" (I) 

A single Dragon of Light shouldn't matter so much to the Dragon God, especially now that many were slaughtered probably with his indirect approval, but this Dragon was separated from the others for such a strange reason. 

"(I won't complain about that, as I have no involvement with that event thousands of years ago, I don't have the right to judge this Dragon.)" (I) 

"I have no problem carrying out your request, but I won't do anything without Nix's approval." (I) 

"Aside from being my Familiar, she was one of the main victims of that event and without meaning to offend Dragon God, her opinion on this is more important to me than anything else you can say." (I) 

"I knew you would say that, that's why I allowed her to participate." (God Akatosh) 

He points to my real body still motionless, my eyes were glowing slightly and seemed to be moving. 

I had already asked a question which the Dragon God ignored by changing the subject, but now I want to know about Nix, I go to my real body and try to put my hand on my forehead. 

"(Nix, are you there?)" (I) 

"(Yes, from the beginning.)" (Nix) 

I received confirmation when Nix spoke in my mind, so I started asking her opinion about everything the Dragon God spoke, her as one of the main victims of the events that led to her mother's death and the sealing of her Soul during thousands of years has the right to choose about it. 

I chatted with her a few minutes and her response surprised me, she didn't blame the Dragon in the crystal any more than she blamed Luminus, neither of them did anything to deserve her hatred in her words. 

"(Is that your decision?)" (I) 

"(As I see it, this Dragon is no different from me, he's been sealed since that event just like it happened to me and he lost his family, if not then surely now.)" (Nix) 

Yes, during those great days talking about Arash's combat against Rhaegal and the end of the Black Empire's War against the Church of Light, I didn't know that Rhaegal had family, but I can imagine that they were all killed. 

"(You don't mind him staying in the Dungeon?)" (I) 

"(I don't mind as I don't blame him for anything that happened, but maybe before you accept the Dragon God's request or hear my acceptance, maybe you should hear if he wants such a thing, without his approval everything else doesn't matter.)" (Nix) 

NIX is not wrong, all of his tribe and family are dead, their names being remembered with shame and anger by all True Dragons, not to mention that I don't know if he is conscious inside the crystal, wouldn't it be strange for him to wish for death now that there is no one important to him in this world. 

"God Akatosh, I think..." (I) 

"I know, I can hear their mental conversations if his wish is to die or continue as he is now, then I won't force it, I'll leave that matter to you now." (God Akatosh) 

The Dragon God for the first time looked back, he did nothing but emanate a little bit of his presence which hammered the crystal creating cracks, this made the Akatosh God's appearance become even more translucent. 

"Wait, you still didn't tell me what that would be." (I) 

"That would be for creating a Dragon Seal, but I ask that you use the one you obtained in your last battle... farewell... son of Selene..." (God Akatosh) 

When he disappeared the surroundings changed, the world of white was replaced by a garden of wildflowers, my point of view also suddenly changed as I found myself back in my body, traces of Nix's presence can still be felt in my body. 

But I didn't have time for that, the crystal was shattering in front of me with each piece growing to more than 3 times its size, the bands that were around the shining crystal before absorbed all the energy I had seen before and stayed in the shape of a sphere returning to my hands. 

This time I was able to store the sphere in a storage item, something I wasn't able to do with the crystal because it had a living creature inside. 

After that I just watched the Dragon free itself while its body grew, I didn't even notice the person standing next to me. 

Freya was silent as she stood beside me, she just placed her hand on my shoulder as she used her Aura to probe my body, she was checking my status but there was no reason to worry this time. 

We both had our eyes glued to the Dragon who was struggling to get out of his prison, I noticed the tears in his eyes as he used his claws to cut the crystals in his path, by his Aura I knew he was below me in strength. 

The Dragon had a lean body, its scales were thin with bone spikes on both arms and wings, and there were also some going down the back. 

I see its straight white scales looking like some kind of metal, its slightly long neck ending in a thinner Dragon head with eyes that would be better with a sharp gleam and not the tears I see now, its eyes were golden and it had a single horn crystal-like white with an upward angled curve. 

I went to him, his body seemed to reach more than 500 meters, but he seemed lighter than other Dragons I've seen before, just looking at his body I know that his focus is not destructive power but speed, at least that's what I think looking at this body. 

"What is your name?" (I) 

"I abandoned my name the day I was placed in this crystal, so call me whatever you like." 

"Do you know what is happening?" (I) 

"Yes, I was conscious the whole time and the Dragon God made me listen to your conversation." 

"Yes, he basically asked me to adopt you as a Dragon from my tribe." (I) 

Before talking about it it's better to let him calm down, I can't ask any questions in such a state, his answers would not be confident in an altered state of emotions.
