Chapter 1819 Azure Dragon is a ‘Liar’
?Adrian arrived in what might look like a grotto that is serene and peaceful. Clear skies and sunlight could be seen on top as if the building they entered was not a spire earlier. Adrian looked around to look for Hajime and he was unmoving from his spot in a lying down position. 𝓵𝓲𝓫𝒓𝓮𝙖𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Adrian checked if Hajime has died, and he was relieved that he was just sleeping. Still, Adrian knew that he was not sleeping due to an external factor but to an internal factor. He was sleeping due to shock as his human body is not used to suddenly skipping through space.
Adrian has learned from his guild members that they would feel uneasy or even heavily nauseous when they teleport with him the first time. If the game permitted their characters to barf, then they would have already done so. Adrian thought that NPCs would have higher tolerance, but Hajime just proved that he was wrong.
“Strange? Yumeko was able to easily hop between dimensions with me when we played together. Does this mean that she has a stronger bearing because of the incidents of her soul separating with her body?” Adrian muttered as he just let Hajime lie down and rest.
“I thought you have already forgotten about my existence that you no longer stared at me.” An old man that has grayish long hair and pure blue eyes looked at Adrian.
“You must be the Azure Dragon, Seiryu. The Vermillion Bird Suzaku has told me all about you as I do not want to do something that might offend you. Also, I did not ignore you as you have surmised. I merely checked my companion as it would leave a bitter taste in my mouth if he were to die with me. His daughter is kind of like my godchild in a way.” Adrian stated.
“Interesting as the Vermillion Bird has said. You also have her heart which means that she trusts you fully.” The Azure Dragon stated as he was able to look at the beating heart of the Vermillion Bird hidden near his core.
“If you can see that then you are as powerful as I thought you would be. It is also the reason why those gods are not doing anything in the eastern continent.” Adrian stated as anyone that can see through him is as powerful as a greater god at the very least.
“I know what you are here for, Champion Equinox. Hajime has already told me that you requested the Lodestone Heart in my possession. Why do you need it when demons do not have the power to harness the power of the elements?” The Azure Dragon stated.
“I need it to evolve one of my soulbounds. It is one of the ingredients necessary for him to become stronger. I do not need to tell you why I need to become stronger as the waves of power has split across the continents. I am sure that all of you felt the power of a High God descending to the world.” Adrian stated.
“I have felt the power of that High God, but she cannot cross the waters here as she would awaken the primal forces asleep in the waters. She would not dare to be careless as she knows that even she will not be able to easily deal with them.” The Azure Dragon stated.
“I do not really care if she cannot cross the waters, but I do need the Lodestone Heart as you have promised. Please give it to me as I do not want to waste anymore time.” Adrian stated as he knows that Hajime was already told that the Lodestone Heart would be given to him if he comes with the demon.
“Unfortunately, I cannot give it to you.” The Azure Dragon stated.
“Then you are a liar and someone that breaks their vows. Is that not extremely embarrassing for someone that lives here in the eastern continent? Also, you are one of their gods so not keeping your promise would be a great shame to your reputation.” Adrian stated.
As soon as Adrian said that the Azure Dragon was a liar, the serene skies above suddenly darkened as lightning and dark clouds rolled over. The peaceful grotto suddenly had a different feel as if everything was dreary. Adrian knew why this happened because he and Hajime were no longer connected fully to the mortal realm.
“This is your divine realm or semi-divine realm as you have tethered it to your palace.” Adrian stated.
“If you know then how dare you call me a liar and dishonorable? I can easily delete you out of existence as you easily walked into my divine realm!” The Azure Dragon stated.
“I went in because I am confident. Should you do something to me then the Vermillion Bird would have something to say to you as she is also listening to this conversation right now. Please give the Lodestone Heart as promised.” Adrian stated as he felt the presence of the Vermillion Bird from behind him.
“I cannot give it to you.” The Azure Dragon stated.
“What do you mean you cannot give it to me? Did it get stolen? If it did then this place has laxer security than I thought.” Adrian stated.
“I just do not want to give it.” The Azure Dragon stated as he crossed his arms and pouted which is not becoming for a being that took the form of an old man.
“He is a hoarder, Equinox. He is not giving it to you because he likes to collect things even if he does not have any use for them. Even when we need something from him, it would take a year at the very least to convince him to part ways with it.” The voice of the Vermillion Bird echoed inside of Adrian’s head.
“I see. What can I do so that he will give me the item that I need? I am already running out of time.” Adrian stated.
“Do this…” The Vermillion Bird stated.
