I was with Zadiris and Navar talking about Navar's request, I had never done something like this until now, whenever I used the power of other Dragons to create a Dragon Seal it was stealing its power after defeating my opponents, not to mention that all these times it was Karina who always did it somehow.
Zadiris was explaining the process for this to me, and then we talked about topics involving what Dragons normally do, which were pretty much the same things Arash told me, but suddenly I got a message to sit back and close my eyes as I extended my consciousness to Ragnar on another planet.
"(What's going on?)" (I)
"Something strange is happening, no time to explain…" (Ragnar)
When I shared Ragnar's senses what I saw was a large Serpent whose head had no mouth but a large eye made entirely of purple irises, the Serpent's entire length was covered in tentacles which had mandibles at the ends, but the strangest thing was its body twitching as if the flesh was rearranging itself.
The Serpent's dark purple color was the same as the flying octopus-type monsters that attacked that world, but this creature wasn't there before, its length is colossal with thousands of tentacles attacking those on the battlefield.
His strength seemed to be a little above Ragnar's, but before he could act, two powerful attacks landed on his body, opening horrible holes that began to heal immediately with the flesh moving to heal the wound.
Those two attacks were from Hades and Silvia, I have Ragnar wave at them while blasting my Aura through him to alert him that it's me acting.
"(Ragnar, get ready.)" (I)
"(Exactly what I was going to order, thank you.)" (Ragnar)
Ragnar went flying in the direction as he changes back to his horse form, his wings spreading out increasing his speed.
Meanwhile, I was mixing our two Auras as my Authority overlaps his which is derived from mine.
"< Blood Curse: Eternal Rivalry >" (I/Ragnar)
I gather the blood from the surroundings creating a magic circle 4 kilometers in diameter, I use my holy power to further strengthen the cursed magic.
Rays of red light shoot out from the magic circle, curling around the large creature before sinking into its body, red marks appearing from all over its body, then it turns towards Ragnar, each of its tentacles turned towards us with jaws open as it moves forward towards us.
"< Territory: Imaginary Realm >" (I/Ragnar)
"< Blood Star Garden Eclipse >" (I/Ragnar)
My Aura and Authority are sucked together through my connection to Ragnar before exploding from his body taking in an area for miles around us catching even thousands of octopus monsters and Hades.
As if it were the end of everything absolute darkness reigned around us then countless stars lit up one by one in the darkness before a ring of red light appeared in the sky before realizing it was an Eclipse.
Soon the darkness lifts revealing streams of energy connecting the surrounding stars as if forming a painting of a stellar garden, in this place there was no gravity or ground, everyone was involved by the universe under the eternal Eclipse.
"Hades, finish them off." (I/Ragnar)
"< Blood Eclipse Avatar: Star Eater >" (I/Ragnar)
From the surrounding stars a haze of blood gathers where a Dragon appears cut out of the space around him, his jaw more precise with that of a Leech full of endless teeth than a Dragon.
The Star Dragon collides against the giant creature full of tentacles making the two go in different directions giving me time to finish my preparation.
"< Incarnation: Beast That Erases Stars >" (I/Ragnar)
The Dragon was now flying towards us, it sinks into Ragnar's body where I guide the power to circulate throughout his body making Ragnar a part of the Territory.
In the end, Ragnar was looking fearsome, the lower part of his body looking like a horse covered in scales with 3 pairs of stellar wings, 4 tails with crystal swords at the ends, and the upper wall of his body became a Dragonewt with stellar scales, 4 giant arms with horrible claws and no face having in their place the vague outlines of a face, what was left there was an image of the very garden of stars around us.
Its size much larger than before was now comparable to that of the creature measuring kilometers in length, I fully controlling Ragnar's body and attacked without fear, the blows of our claws ripping off large chunks of the body.
The tentacles opened their jaws to bite my body, but they were unable to do anything against my defenses, but from the large bone in its head a powerful ray of light burned my body like acid, its damage was reduced, but it made way for the tentacles to get a bite on the soft flesh behind my scales.
The battle was intense, the more the body was crushed, the tentacles torn off, the body cut or even pierced, nothing seemed to end the creature, its body always healing, leaving no mark behind.
My Aura or Authority seemed to have little effect on preventing his recovery, but I didn't have time to think about that now, I focused my holy power on the Horn of Ragnar it was as big as a sword, so a great sword forms on top of the head of the great Serpent coming down to pierce the eye.
As soon as I did that, I approached to deliver the final blow, but at that moment hundreds of tentacles wrapped around me to trap my body, a useless attempt at protection.
"< Breath of Beasts >" (I/Ragnar)
I gathered the flow of power from the Territory around me into Ragnar's body before turning his face forward from which hundreds of colored energy bolts burst out taking the shape of beast-type monsters as if it were a Monster Wave that ripped the great serpent's body to pieces.
"< Tornado of Stars >" (I)
Without losing concentration, I see the various pieces trying to put themselves back together, so I control the stars in the garden to form a tornado, breaking up even the last piece of that thing into dust.
When I no longer felt any trace of the creature's life in my territory, I turned around only to see Hades standing among a field of mangled bodies.
I undo the transformations and the Territory only to reveal that the fight was still going on, this time I listened to try to find more of this stuff, but there was nothing in either direction.
"(Keep an eye out.)" (I)
I leave some of my power and health with Ragnar to stay at his best health in case I need to fight, I want him to keep an eye on the others in case more of this stuff comes up.
--------------
When I open my eyes Navar and Zadiris were still there talking, when I opened my eyes I talk to them what happened and Navar leaves saying he will prepare some more Warriors to go to where the fight is happening in case another one of these things comes up.
After seeing Navar leave, I went back to the Dungeon, from there I took Miriam and Astrid to the training floor, a place with no monsters used for training most of the time.
Along with me were Vanessa, Elizabeth, Alice, and Ivan who wanted to come along.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom "Are you still going to go along with what you decided?" (I)
"Yes, I'll get through this myself, but I want Astrid around." (Miriam)
"If you expect her to learn to make similar garlic, forget it, it's not something you can just learn." (I)
"But feel free to see." (I)
Miriam and I walk a little further away from the others, meanwhile, I grab a bottle of Elizabeth's blood to drink, it's not as nutritious as Natasha's blood, but it will help my recovery.
"You have the choice to change your race or remain Human, the choice is yours." (I)
"If I want to remain human will it still have the same effect we want?" (Miriam)
"Yes, but I could also turn you into a Dragon, Lamia, or Mermaid..." (I)
"Thank you very much, but no, I prefer to keep my humanity." (Miriam)
"Your loss, so let's get started." (I)
"Do I need to do something?" (Miriam)
"Just don't resist, going through this process means you're subordinating yourself to me, if you start resisting I might try to force you but I don't want to so I'll just stop it all." (I)
"..." (Miriam)
She gets thoughtful a few seconds before looking at Astrid, then she nods at me in confirmation.
"Alright, let's get started." (I)
"< Blood Eclipse Dragon Demigod Authority >" (I)
----------------
Early morning, in a restaurant inside the Dungeon, it was just me and Astrid, a few hours ago Miriam went through the Awakening Ceremony, I'm sure Astrid did many tests with her during the hours that followed.
"Did you find something different about your friend?" (I)
"Yes, her body may look the same, but every cell in her body is different, new…" (Astrid)
"Other than that, her body has a natural flow of energy like those of this Universe." (Astrid)
"But that doesn't come for free." (I)
"Yes, Miriam told me about the sense of connection she feels with you." (Astrid)
"Loyalty is all I've ever asked in return, that goes for everyone in this town and even this restaurant." (I)
"But before you can leave, you must speak with one of my sisters, wake up early tomorrow as it will take time to convince her." (I)
