He picked 10 huge dragon stone blocks aside from the tiny pieces he saw and put it on his magical pouch.

"Master." The Book called him while he is picking the tiny pieces.

"Destroy that crimson wall. There is a dragon heart hidden inside." The Book said with enthusiasm.

"Dra... Dragon Heart you say?" Naga was surprised and hurriedly picked a huge hammer from his earring's storage.

Dragon Heart is the source of Dragon Mana. A rune like gem that a human can consume and use the energy within to form dragona mana. He didn't expect it and after destroying the crimson wall he picked and looked at the three red runes.

"Those are untainted. However, those runes don't have a lot of mana. I recommend for you to consume those three, master." The Book said.

"I see. Alright. Let's stay here and I will use one of the three runes." Naga said and did a meditation post.

"Only one?" The Book curiously asked.

"Yes. I have a plan." Naga smiled and then closed his eyes.

He focus his attention towards his arcane mana and dragon mana. The red rune floated in the air and started to glow with bright red lights. The bright runic lights entered Naga's body and the cave shook. 'Rumble!'

Naga was surprised since he didn't expect that this is going to be painful. "What's happening?"

"Your dragon mana is one of the most ancient and it is one of the purest too. It is absorbing the dragon heart and cleansing it to be much purer. Because of that, you will not be able to consume all of it." The Book explained.

"I see. Good to know." Naga smiled. He clenched his fist too and a.s.sumed his meditation post.

"You should also know master that your dragon mana is a separate reserve than your arcane mana. Usually, after someone got a dragon mana it is fusing with the arcane mana. It seems that you have a very powerful soul to be able to separate the two." The Book softly said.

Naga didn't respond and focus his concentration toward his dragon mana reserve. He felt that his dragon mana reserve got bigger and more powerful. He can hear a dragon growling within.

He stayed for the same position for almost a day before stabilizing.

"Hhuuuuh..." Naga opened his eyes and smiled.

He continued, "At least, it's done now."

He smiled and saw the Book still guarding him. When he looked at the Book and about to express his grat.i.tude, it unsummoned itself. 'Puff.'

'What a weird Book.' He lightly smiled.

Naga stood up and went outside, it is a new morning and the forest is quite peaceful. He didn't know that the beasts left since they were scared when they felt a strong dragon presence inside the cave.

'Well, I'm hungry. I will set a camp here and eat. I just finished absorbing a dragon heart so I do not have the mood to walk.' Naga smiled. He planned to just lazy around. He got two dragon hearts and a lot of dragon stones, those alone are enough for him.

He activated his earring and picked up a tent, a water canteen and rations. He set up the tent then he went to a nearby tree and put a chair and a table under it. He sat down and ate his ration.

"What? Is he here for a vacation?" A huge red dragon is watching Naga. He decided to go down.

'Boom!' Naga was surprised when a huge dragon landed into the ground. It looked overbearing and powerful.

"Human, who are you?" The dragon asked in a tyrannical way.

"Greetings. I'm..." Before Naga can finish it the dragon interrupted him.

"Save it for a later talk. I'll test you first!" The dragon said and then suddenly attacked with a fire breath.

"Hey!" Naga was shocked. He jumped to the side and quickly used his arcane for power blessing.

'The h.e.l.l with this?' Naga thought to himself.

The red dragon flipped it wings with pwerful force and a stronf gust of wind striked Naga.

He countered by casting two wind blades and a fireball but it was futile so he decided to ran through the forest.

'Perhaps this is the right time to try the Tyrant Dragon Force.' Naga thought while running.

He used his dragon mana and produced a strong magical energy that wrapped up his body. It enhanced his physical power and provided great defense.

Due to his power blessing and tyrant dragon force, he is now much more powerful physically. He has superhman strength and speed now.

He ran straight with great force and summoned his long spear from his earring's storage.

'A basic dragon art and an arcane technique that can boost physical power huh? Good!' The dragon thought and flew faster. He was actually surprised since he didn't expect that Naga will be this fast.

The dragon was about to launch another fire breath when he saw a magic spear coming at him.

He attacked the spear with his fire breath.

'Swiss.h.!.+' 'Swiiss.h.!.+' 'Swiiss.h.!.+'

He got hit by three wind blades from above. With the Dragon Tyrant Force, Naga's wind blades became much stronger.

"What?!" He didn't receive huge amount of damage but it caused a delay to his reaction.

When he looked at the front, he saw the boy smiling at him and a sudden blinding light was casted.

"Aaahhh!" The dragon shouted. He didn't expect this.

Naga utilizes another function of the Dragon Tyrant Force, a huge amount of power concetrated to his fist. He stepped back to get a momentum for a strong punch.

The Dragon Tyrant Force is only a basic dragon art yet it is one of the most useful and convenient arts. It will produce two different dragon arcane when used, one will wrap up the body. It will greatly enhance the physical power of the user and will give a boost in defense since it will act as an arcane armor. The other one will be a concentrated orb of arcane that the user can move to different parts of his body for additional power.

"Ahhhh!" Naga shouted and delivered a powerful punch. 'Baaamm!'

Naga landed the strike at the dragon's head. The dragon was pushed back however, Naga was blown away and crashed to the trees.

'Cras.h.!.+'

'Argh!'

"Outch! d.a.m.n!" Naga was hurt and his right arm is still shaking. His Dragon Tyrant Force was dispersed. He decided not to use the light barrier of the earring yet so he crashed hard to the trees.

"Hahaha! You are great human!" The dragon laughed.

"Can we stop now with the test?" Naga asked while tapping his clothes to remove the dirt.

"Yes. Yes. Hahaha!" The dragon can't stop laughing.

He continued, "Huhuu.... wh.. What's your name again?"

"I'm Naga. Are there any other dragons here?" Naga asked.

"None. I am the only one left. That's why I am glad to receive you as my guest." The dragon said happily.

'Glad my a.s.s.' Naga chuckled. "Thanks."

"Ooohh. Don't be angry human. It is normal for me to test you since I don't know your reason for going here." The dragon explained.

"Well, you are right." Naga smiled.

"Let's go back to your place." The dragon flew and went to the direction of Naga's tent.

Naga looked at the dragon and started walking.
