Awakening The Only SSS-Rank Class! Now Even Dragons Obey Me Chapter 708: Obtaining Another Fragment

The dragon went silent. He himself lacked a true answer to this very question. Actually, it's probable that nobody possessed the answer.

After all, nobody had attempted anything like that in the past. Daniel stood alone as the one who had secured the Primordial Flame and served as the previous host for the Goddess. And during that era, no system had existed whatsoever.

"In theory, it should be feasible," the Ancient Dragon at last revealed his perspective. "But I can’t say if it’s truly achievable. Not unless you grow to match the power of its maker."

"I get it. That’s what crossed my mind too," Daniel nodded. Should the system’s creator indeed be the supreme force across all creation, he held zero opportunity at present.

'Tch, this situation stinks.' A faint headache emerged. He felt far from thrilled about bearing this oversight-like system.

Prior to this, it wouldn’t have been a concern. In those days, he harbored no secrets. Yet now, having transformed into something likely eradicated by the system’s creator, total unease gripped him.

Nonetheless, he understood that entity had undoubtedly spotted him already. His continued existence implied either that power chose restraint, or Daniel appeared so feeble in its gaze that he posed no danger.

No matter what, this remained merely his speculation drawn from scant details. It could prove entirely mistaken.

"When is his rebirth scheduled?" Daniel redirected his focus toward Finn.

"One year. Rebirth will require a full year for him."

Daniel nodded, then scrutinized the core beneath the dragon more intently. This core obviously functioned as an energy hub.

'So, if this core gets shattered, the whole continent faces ruin? That spells disaster for the world. Perhaps that’s the reason the system confines this dragon,' he mused.

"There’s one more thing I’d like to inquire about. Do you possess an item like this?" He drew out a shard of the Fallen Heart and presented it.

Based on the Third Elder’s account, a single fragment resided with the False God.

The Ancient Dragon studied it with care. A rift in dimensions then parted before him. He extended his reach inside and extracted yet another fragment.

"I acquired this centuries ago, back when freedom was mine. It bore the aura of the Fallen God, drawing me irresistibly," he remarked with nostalgia.

Daniel accepted the fragment, gave it a quick glance, offered thanks, and slipped it into his inventory.

[ You have obtained another fragment of the God’s Heart. ]

"I believe we’ve covered enough in our talk for the moment," he declared, facing the dragon.

The dragon inclined his head and reciprocated the gesture of respect.

"It was an honor to meet you, Your Majesty. I hope to see you again soon."

With farewells exchanged, Daniel departed. He had secured the responses he sought, and encountered the mightiest entity alive in the world today.

"Rebuilding the Religion of Eternity must now become my main goal. The only way I can grow stronger is through the religion. It has to be rebuilt as soon as possible."

Upon departure, he made his way back to the central palace.

Having ascended as the Lord of the Dragons, the palace now fell under his domain. In reality, it had forever been the Goddess’s, with the Dragon Empress and Elders utilizing it for assemblies.

And now it was his.

He arrived there and entered the lavish chamber arranged specifically for him. Seated upon the bed, he reached out to the Dragon Empress via their mental link, commanding her to initiate the Religion of Eternity’s reconstruction without delay.

He further relayed updated directives to Evangelin, concepts for accelerating the religion’s growth. Puppet states and rescuing border territories from demons no longer sufficed.

At least not at this juncture.

The swiftest path to dissemination lay in positioning the Religion of Eternity as an emblem of justice and shield for the vulnerable within the minds of every human and sentient creature.

The Holy City of Eternity demanded reconstruction, alongside the Church of Eternity. To accomplish this, the Gulf of Sumer required absolute safety. He enlisted several Elders to directly engage and eradicate the demons from the zone.

[ Are you sure you want to leave the Celestial Domain? ]

He regarded the display before him. At present, no further tasks awaited him in the Celestial Domain. Merely two fragments lingered.

He had freshly claimed one among them.

The leftover pair lay beyond his current reach. He reserved the Divine Church’s fragment for the end, then retrieved a talisman from his inventory.

This talisman originated from an old companion, the very girl who aided him in preserving the Everlight Moon Guild’s supreme weapon.

The identical girl from the Central Magic Tower.

He dispatched a message to her, stating his readiness to visit the tower and provide aid should she still require it.

Following that, he returned the talisman to his inventory and selected "Yes."

In the instant that followed, utter darkness swallowed the world around him.

Upon regaining sight, he discovered himself in his bedroom. He surveyed the space, then flung himself onto the bed.

He lifted his phone from the nightstand and noted the hour. It read approximately 9 a.m.

Next, he perused his message thread to check for incoming notes.

Nothing of note appeared. Nearly everyone near to him was aware of his impending return from the Celestial Domain, hence the lack of communications.

He messaged Lana, informing her of his arrival at the guild within the next hour.

Thereafter, he rose and proceeded to the bathroom, showered, donned fresh attire, and stepped into the living room.

True to expectation, the home stood vacant. Midweek had arrived, and his two sisters undoubtedly trained at the guild.

Before venturing into the Celestial Domain, Daniel had bestowed upon them the Undying Star Body technique. Earlier, he had devised a milder variant for their use, but with their ranks now elevated, the authentic version became viable.

Assuming his recollection held true, three months hence they would reach eighteen and at last confront the Tower’s inaugural floor. He intended to guarantee their flawless passage.

"They should have swallowed the Phoenix Tear by now too. Their current strength is far higher than mine was at their level," he muttered with a smile.

"Maybe I should have another sparring match with them," he decided, thinking they were probably getting a bit arrogant by now.

With that settled, he moved to the kitchen and prepared his morning meal. Upon completing it, he exited the dwelling, climbed into his vehicle, and sped directly to the guild.

The guild leader, Lana’s father, ought to have been freed from incarceration by this point. Daniel required clarity on why he had undertaken such a foolhardy act as assaulting the Goblin Guild.
