“A dragon! The giant dragon is chasing us!”

The twice-rescued Princess Messiah quickly recovers, pointing at the black dragon atop the castle.

The dragon was spreading its wings, gathering speed to take flight, accompanied by the sharp sound of sonic booms and gusty winds.

“You ugly long-necked bat, you have been dead for over a thousand years, yet you wish to resurrect?”

Su Lu is fearless, setting down the Princess Messiah and charging head-on: “Dance Step!”

He pushes off the ground, propelling upward and after two assists, he arrives above the clouds, locking eyes with the wicked dragon.

“Roar!”

The black dragon’s throat glows red, and in the blink of an eye, a conical flame is expelled.

Su Lu pushes off with the tip of his foot once more, easily evading the attack. A multitude of chains surface on his right hand: “Spirit Chain!”

Poof!

Suddenly, there seemed to be an enormous silver spider web, wrapping the dragon entirely, coiling into a lump and plunging straight down.

“Roar! Roar!”

The black dragon continues to roar and struggle violently.

However, Su Lu notices something different: “Hmm? Not only does it differ from the form of the giant dragons in the Main World, but it also seems to lack wisdom, acting just like a wild beast?”

“Right, the real giant dragons died, both soul and body, over a thousand years ago. What remained was only energy stored within the Dragon Crystal and a hint of spirit imprint, acting solely based on instinct… What a pity, the one it’s trying to take is just a normal human. If it recklessly infuses the energy of the Dragon Crystal, it might end up killing them both! Turning into a beast is the best outcome…”

Boom!

The horrifying shockwave from the falling object sweeps across the surroundings, leaving a huge pit on the lawn.

“A dragon…A dragon slaying knight!”

Looking at the silhouette of Su Lu, proudly standing atop the black dragon, Princess Messiah’s eyes are filled with awe.

Yet, watching the black dragon still twitching, it scares her to the point of stepping back again and again.

“Burn!”

Su Lu jumps down from the mountain-like dragon body, sighing softly.

Whoooosh!

Pale flames emerged in an instant on the chains, spreading to the entire black dragon.

Under the flame’s burning, this fierce beast, despite its continuous roars, eventually dissipates into nothingness.

‘If my opponent was a real dragon, I’d surely turn tail and flee without a word. However, this foe is simply a hint of spirit from a legendary creature, which has been worn down and weakened for a millennium. More importantly, it’s within the Mental Secret Realm, that could be considered half my home ground, and suppressed by my [Spirit Medium] ability. If I can’t even win this, then that’s truly beyond belief.’

Su Lu smirks, feeling a bit of a tremble from his stats bar.

“Am I…am I dreaming?”

Messiah steps forward, looking at Su Lu.

“Perhaps, you are indeed dreaming, my little princess.”

Su Lu smiles, his figure disappearing.

In the real world, within the Princess’s boudoir.

“Fortunately, a very short time has passed.”

Su Lu opens his eyes, retracts his shadow clone and looks at Messiah again.

The little princess’s furrowed brows, constant even in sleep, soften as her breaths become regular.

On her hand, the True Dragon Necklace falls off, the wound healing rapidly.

“Frankly…you’ve become ‘unique’. If you received a Transcendent legacy while mastering the power within your body, then this Dragon Crystal will help you reach unimaginable realms!”

Su Lu stoops down, carefully picking up the Dragon Crystal: “Unfortunately…since it is my reward, it belongs to me!”

However, even without the Dragon Crystal, the previous ‘transformation’ has given Messiah ample benefits. Whether she becomes a knight or a wizard in the future, her progress will be significantly increased.

Moreover… maybe she could even take up a special, dragon-related profession.

Su Lu holds the Dragon Crystal in his hand, feeling the icy touch laced with a hint of warmth merge directly with his skin.

On his stats bar, experience points are rapidly accumulating, easily breaking past 1000 in less than a blink of an eye!

On top of this, a single droplet of dark red blood seeps out from the cracks.

It looked like a drop of blood but in reality, it was a concentrated form of energy, filled with countless mysterious symbols forming mind-boggling patterns.

“Hmm!”

Su Lu groaned, watching the ‘blood’ make contact with his skin before it formed a thin film that covered his entire body and seeped in.

Blazing!

Feeling as if his body was on fire, he looked at his arm and saw a layer of skin beginning to wither and crack, much like the shedding of a snake’s skin.

A subtle ripping sound.

As the old skin tore away, the fresh skin underneath was more delicate and smooth, seemingly concealing a layer of scales beneath.

[Ding!]

[You are undergoing the ‘Dragon Blood Baptism’ ritual (Mutation)!]

A prompt appeared on the attribute panel.

A mutated Dragon Blood Baptism? Is it related to the previous Spiritual Imprint?”

Su Lu didn’t have time to think too much.

He endured the strange sensations in his body and the increasing violent thoughts of slaughter and destruction in his mind. He shot one last glance at his surroundings and bolted out.

“Who?”

“Someone has broken into the palace?”

“Sound the alarm!”

The highest clock tower in the palace began to make urgent chiming sounds.

The serene palace in the depth of the night was disturbed as the guards clad in armor blocked the exits and began searching for the ‘assassin’.

“Damn, this came at the worst time!”

Feeling the string in his mind called ‘reason’ tightening to the point of snapping, Su Lu roared in rage, unable to maintain his hidden state any longer and emerged from the shadows.

“There he is!”

A few knights’ attendants eyes lit up and they drew their swords to rush at him.

“Get lost!”

He let out a punch casually which was more powerful than usual.

The two attendants were sent flying away as they were hit by the powerful punch, feeling as though they were hit by a raging bull, their chests caved in.

“Go!”

Su Lu leaped, directly soaring over the high city walls, speedily escaping.

“What’s going on?”

Felitlin III, dressed in his purple pajamas, came to the high point to look down, assisted by Flora. On seeing the chaos in the palace, he roared in rage.

“Your Majesty, an assassin has broken into your palace. We are trying our best to catch the culprit!”

The Palace Guard Commander quickly reported: “Both the princes are safe, only Princess Messiah…”

“Ah… what has happened to my Messiah?”

Flora asked in shock.

“The Princess is safe. Only a few guards and maids have been knocked out…”

The Guard Commander said this, feeling puzzled.

“Thank the goddess, my Messiah is alright.” Flora made a praying gesture.

What they didn’t know was that although Messiah had noticed the missing necklace, she had not mentioned it for some reason.

“That assassin, he must be caught.”

Felitlin III roared in anger.

“The Palace’s Chief Swordsman – Viscount Violet has already gone forth to capture him.”

The Guard Commander said with a bow.

As the Guard Commander, his main responsibility was to arrange the guards, his combat abilities were not the best.

But this Viscount, he was the kingdom’s top swordsman!
