I've been trying a variety of spell combinations to heal Emerald's wings, but every time I tried, it simply didn't work. His Curse was very strong, most likely conjured by someone at Rank 9 or above that.

I asked him ore about this Dark Scaled Dragon, and he said he didn't had any crimson scales or weird vampiric features, so it wasn't Sangre, but someone different.

The only option I can think about is cutting his wings and then helping him regrow them, but even that, it might not work properly.

Divine Dragons wounds are very severe, they cannot regenerate big wounds without spending many decades resting, even more if it is about lost limbs.

Its just that I am the weird one here, with my Immortal Body capable of regenerating such things very quickly. And well, my daughters inherited a part of this amazing self-regeneration too, to an extent.

It is much more complicated with Emerald… Though, Benladra told me something as we examined him.

"It's weird… Papa." 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

"What is it dear?"

"It feels like… The curse is tied with Emerald's emotions too…"

"Emotions?"

"I dunno… But something like that, if he doesn't rise his self-esteem, I don't think he'll ever recover…"

"Huh? Is that even possible?"

System, can you identify the curse a bit more?

["Hmmm… Let me try again…"]

[Analyzing…]

[Loading analyzed information…]

[Information acquired.]

[Curse Information: A Strange Curse conjured by someone carrying the power of a Primordial Sin. It works on mysterious ways, utilizing the Sin's powers. The weaker the mind of the carrier of this Curse is, the stronger it becomes. It cannot be healed by any normal or divine magic.]

"A Sin?!" I wondered.

"Huh? W-What's wrong?" Emerald asked.

"Emerald, that giant dark dragon you meet could had been a damn Demon King!" I was shocked.

"EEEEHH?!" Emerald suddenly threw off the soup he was drinking. "I-I was attacked by a Demon King?! Wait, can Dragons be Demon Kings to begin with?!"

"Apparently…" I said. "My brother is one, then there's this guy, I'm also becoming something of a Demon King myself, though slowly compared to these two sociopaths."

"Y-You too?!" Emerald was even more impressed.

"Emerald, do you truly not know who I am? Have your family or your mother never told you a single thing about the young Dragon King at all?" I asked.

"N-No… Sorry, but are you really the King? Kind of weird that the King is weaker than other Dragons…" Emerald was doubting me.

This brat was really getting into my nerves sometimes.

"Well, it doesn't matter, it just means I can acquire all the Bloodlines of all Dragons, ultimate, I have the potential to become the strongest, and lead our family to prosperity once more… I think." I said, munching on a big, boiled potato. "For now let's just finish our meal and let's go to the village to watch what they're doing. I am interested in that Ancient Ruins place too."

"Is that Ancient Ruin where the thing you're looking for might be located?" Benladann asked. "The Divine Treasure?"

"Yeah, the System is detecting its presence all the way on its depths. Though it might be a bit hard to get there…" I sighed. "Nonetheless, Emerald has given me a few clues of what's going on in there."

"Sounds good, so we'll just steal that thing, huh?" Miranda smiled. "We'll need to be stealthy."

"It would be a good opportunity to investigate those ruins as well." Benladann pointed out. "I have a bad feeling about them, if that weird monster that Emerald saw could have come from there… It might not be as simple."

"I know it is an urgent matter, but wouldn't it be better if we try to negotiate with the people first?" Wondered Larzak. "It would be better than blindly jumping to steal something… It just doesn't fit well with me."

"I have the feeling that the Divine Treasure has something to do with their settlement…" Kraxka said. "Emerald, do you know anything about that?"

"I've heard they said the Ancient Ruins generate a barrier that doesn't let monsters get in…" Emerald said. "But I don't know anything about… a Divine Treasure or whatever."

"How can you not know those things? Don't you have a Divine Realm yourself?" Yuki asked while raising an eyebrow.

"I-I have one but it was left back home…" Emerald sighed. "Our Divine Realms get instantly merged with mother's Divine Realm! Which at the same protects our homes, and leaves them to my big brothers to handle."

"Maybe that's why he's Rank 9 while being so unexperienced." Ruby said. "He has been feed a lot of Divine Treasures inside his Divine Realm from his family, so he grew his Rank very quickly, but he has no idea how to even use his powers properly."

"Talk about golden spoon… More like platinum spoon!" Rakasha laughed.

"Ugh… Maybe that could be true…" Emerald felt guilty himself. "Sigh… I think we should do w-what the two lizardmen said… If we can negotiate or something… it could be for the b-best."

"Okay then, but you'll have to apologize to them for having eaten the food." Said Hector, crossing his arms.

"But I only ate a tiny bit, not half of it!" Emerald cried.

"Yeah but you still ate some of it! Just admit all the fault for now, it will calm down their rage a bit, at the very least." Hector said, sipping some tea. "Anyways, about Surtr… It's already getting darker, why he hasn't returned yet?"

"Hmmm, I have been trying to talk to him through telepathy, but nothing yet." I said. "Looks like the Trial cuts all communication with the outside world. However, you don't have to worry, I can sense his life force as our connection between cousins, he's alright, and so is his group."

"Whatever Trial they're going through, I bet it must be something long and tedious…" Benladra said, as she ate a big meatball. "Papa, this meatball is nice! What is it?"

"Wyvern Meatball, from the Jungle Wyverns we hunted a while ago." I smiled.

"W-Wyvern?!" Emerald panicked. "B-But aren't they dragons too?!"

"You think of Wyverns as dragons but you didn't believed us when we said we were?!" I facepalmed.

This kid, seriously, he's getting on my nerves.

I'm beginning to realize how nice and disciplined Surtr was in comparison to this golden spoon wind dragon!
