Lord of Ferde's residence, in the lord's bedroom

Gretel's face was like the pure moon, but today, the moon had two circles of red . Her eyes were like clear water as she gently helped Link with his clothes .

"Be careful when going to Aragu this time," she reminded softly .

"I will . " Link nodded and looked down, away from the gentleness in Gretel's eyes that he could drown in . She'd turned into this after they'd shared a night .

Of course, they couldn't only sleep since they were in the same bedroom . Basically, they'd become much closer .

A few seconds of silence later, Link said, "I checked your body carefully . The Heart of the Dragon has stabilized and grew . If you don't get outside help, you'll be able to have power again after 100 years . "

The dragon royal bloodline's Heart of the Dragon was more miraculous and stronger than one could imagine . Even after a destructive attack, it could still recover bit by bit with enough time .

Link couldn't check Gretel's body so closely before . He also didn't know enough about the Heart of the Dragon, so he didn't discover this . Last night was different though . Now at mid-Level-16, his vision was many times better than before . He could instantly see this .

"Oh, that's good . " Gretel was happy, but the feeling wasn't very strong . The recovery time was too slow . She couldn't help Link at all . Further, she didn't desire power as much anymore .

She was sometimes frustrated in Ferde, but after shedding her responsibilities as queen, her life had become much more relaxed . But this freedom of the soul made her see Link's situation more clearly . Before, she only had to be responsible for the dragons . Now, Link had to support the entire human race .

In the past, Gretel had been terrified of making mistakes . Link wasn't any better now . Thinking of this, Gretel felt pity . Her anger towards Link vanished too .

After fixing Link's clothes, she rested in his arms . "I just want you alive," she murmured . "No matter what happens, even if you fall into darkness, I'll follow you . "

She was no longer the dragon queen, and her restraints were gone . She didn't care about the responsibilities, the difference between light and dark, the debates between justice and evil anymore . She could ignore them all .

Link didn't think Gretel would say these things . People all said that women were more emotional . Rather than using logic, one should just make them happy . He'd thought that the Red Dragon Queen was different, but it seemed that her emotional side was just hidden deeper .

Grasping Gretel's waist—thin yet still with feeling—Link felt a bit hot . He smiled . "I'll live well . Alright, let me adjust your Heart of the Dragon before leaving . "

He'd just checked it last night, and then Link thought about it the entire night . He'd already figured out the basic method to support the Heart of the Dragon… Those were only excuses .

Gretel's cheeks reddened deeper, and she nodded .

Link used some power and scooped Gretel up . He walked to the bed in the chamber . After all, they needed a good environment to adjust the Heart of the Dragon .

"Ah," Gretel gasped . "Your clothes will get messy again . "

"Then you can tidy it again . " It was rare for Link's voice to be so gentle .

After a flurry and a storm, Gretel's eyes brightened greatly . Her eyes were always pretty, but they'd darkened after she lost her power . Now, one could make out a dancing flame inside . It couldn't be compared to the past, but the flame was still growing .

"I feel power again . " Her voice was lazy .

"I've recovered your Heart of the Dragon's main structure . After this, you'll only need to perfect the details . It should be fine within three years . " Link rubbed the Red Dragon Queen's chest . That was where the Heart of the Dragon was .

He was very serious when speaking, making Gretel giggle . It was instantly like hundreds of flowers blooming . She was indescribably beautiful . Without saying anything, Link flipped her over and began picking the flowers again .

These things had to end at some point . Link stayed for another day before finally climbing out of Gretel's gentleness . When he left the lord's residence, he composed himself and sighed inwardly .

It was rumored quietly throughout the dragon race that the Red Dragon Queen was a natural charmer . All the dukes died early . After experiencing it personally, Link believed it . If not for his strong determination to leave, he would have been trapped by the beauty forever .

And the queen is wounded . If she's at her full strength, I'll be done for . Cold sweat beaded on Link's forehead .

Returning to the core Mage Tower, he saw h.e.l.lfire Razer . Razer had already prepared the map and record of all important events from the Aragu Realm . Link took the scroll and checked it . When he had questions, he would ask on the spot . He asked quickly and urged Razer to answer without giving him time to think .

Razer was a Warrior . His mind couldn't match a Legendary Magician . At first, he wanted to hold things back, but the interrogation made his head hurt . He just answered instinctively .

"What use does Milda's wand have?" Link suddenly asked .

"Her wand is prophetic… Ah, you're tricking me to talk!" Razer suddenly realized .

Link smiled . "This isn't in the contract, and I'm not forcing you to answer . You answered yourself . Okay, thank you for your information . "

Razer was speechless . It was his fault that he reacted too slowly . Sighing, he asked, "When will you let me go?"

"Now . " Link smiled and undid Razer's shackles . He returned Razer's armor and sword too, putting the equipment on him .

Razer had wanted to attack, but he knew Link's power . Nana was also behind Link . He hadn't recovered fully either . If he attacked now, he would be dead, so he acted obediently .

When Razer finished putting the armor on, Link asked, "Are you ready?"

When Razer finished putting the armor on, Link asked, "Are you ready?"

"Yes . " Razer nodded .

Link pressed a rune on the cell's wall . The cell lit up blindingly, and Mana poured out, spinning quickly . Razer instinctively wanted to block it . He'd been repelling the foreign power these days and healing his wounded heart . About half of his power was back . As soon as he started using force, Link hurriedly called, "I'm opening a portal door . Don't fight it or else it'll collapse!"

Razer was shocked . Now, he felt that the wild power wasn't hurting him . Instead, the s.p.a.ce inside the cell started rippling . It was indeed the signs of a portal door .

He could only restrict his urge and let the energy within the cell go wild . The energy spun and spun, faster and faster . Finally, the speed made Razer's heart pound . It was so powerful that it could crush him .

Boom . Suddenly, there was a soft boom . Razer felt an attractive force come from the vortex, sucking him in .

He wanted to fight back again, but then Link said, "Razer, I'm only responsible for sending you away, but we're enemies . Do you really think that I'll send you away nicely?"

Razer froze . Indeed, the contract was still effective, so Link couldn't hurt him . But they were still enemies . It was understandable to send an enemy away roughly . While he was dazed, he was sucked into the vortex . Under the force, he started spinning .

If he wasn't a Level-16 Warrior with a strong body, he would've fallen apart from the spinning . Even still, Razer felt dizzy and wanted to throw up .

Poof, poof, poof, pop! The vortex was still spinning quickly . Then there was a sound like a bottle opening, and then Razer was gone from inside the vortex .

He wasn't dead, of course . After a great amount of power from the vortex entered his body, he shot out the Firuman Realm at a horrifying speed .

Right then, a dazzling beam shot through the Sea of Void . It was going in a foreign direction rather than the Aragu Realm .

The speed was too fast . All Razer could do was protect himself . With his shallow knowledge of the Sea of Void's principles, he didn't know how to slow down . He could only wait for the Sea of Void's resistance to slow him down .

But the resistance was so weak . It would take forever for him to stop .

But the resistance was so weak . It would take forever for him to stop .

By now, Razer obviously knew what Link had done . Indeed, Link didn't harm him, but if he couldn't go back to the Aragu Realm, he obviously wouldn't be an enemy anymore .

Dammit…ahhh, meteorite! Razer turned quickly and brushed past a meteorite the size of his head . A dent appeared in his armor .

With his extreme speed, he would die no matter what he touched . Razer was p.i.s.sed, but he couldn't get distracted . He had to focus on speeding through the Sea of Void .

On the other side, Link smiled at Nana . "Ferde's safety is up to you . "

"Master, don't worry . "

With that, Link was rea.s.sured . He opened the realm portal and disappeared .

He didn't have to worry about getting stopped halfway through . The Sea of Void was boundless while Aragu was close to Firuman . He was also experienced in crossing the Sea of Void . He quickly found a small path and reached the outer layer of the Aragu Realm .

His plan was simple . He would find the coordinates of the Aragu Empire from the outside and teleport in . He should be safe inside the empire . Then he could easily find the Snow Mountain Archmage .

However, he'd underestimated the Inferno Archmage . While looking for the coordinates, a fiery-red figure flashed in the corner of vision . He turned and saw a six-winged angel with burning fire rush over from a distance . Judging from his force, he obviously wasn't a friend .

Something from Razer's scroll popped up in Link's mind . Six-winged Burning Angel? This is a high-level magic puppet Warrior of the Inferno Archmage . Each one is at Level-15 . The principles were copied from Nana . They were made from divine power and were consumables with shocking combat ability . There were more than 20, and they liked operating in teams of three .

Teams of three? Link looked and instantly saw the other two Burning Angels . The three were coming from three directions and were about to surround Link .

F*ck . Link didn't dare fight in the Sea of Void . It would be troublesome if the Inferno Archmage was notified . Giving up on determining the coordinates, he found the general direction and dove into the Aragu Realm .
