After reaching and stabilizing his newfound power, Asher erged from the collapsed cavern, his aura radiating dominance.
Valeris was waiting for him, sitting elegantly in a nightgown, her golden eyes gleaming with amusent.
"You finally ca out," she said, crossing her arms.
Asher exhaled deeply, rolling his shoulders. "Yeah. I'm at my peak now. I've returned as a new being."
Valeris smirked. "Good. Then entertain ."
Without warning, she transford, shifting into her hybrid form—a half-dragon state, the strongest transformation a dragon could take. Her crimson scales glowed, her claws sharpened, and her aura skyrocketed, making the entire lair tremble.
"Jeez... is this really necessary?" Asher muttered, feeling the pressure from her overwhelming presence.
Despite the battle-ready stance, Valeris suddenly grabbed his hand, pulling him close before kissing him deeply.
Asher's eyes widened. "You... taste good," she murmured against his lips. "And now, I want you as my mate."
He took a step back, startled. "Wait... what?!"
Valeris chuckled, licking her lips. "What's with that reaction? I'm asking for sothing simple. I want you to give a powerful child."
Asher stared at her, still trying to process her words. "Hold on—are you seriously just declaring this out of nowhere?"
Valeris narrowed her eyes. "Did you think I waited for nothing? You're strong enough now. It's only natural."
Asher groaned, running a hand through his hair. "Look, I just finished a brutal breakthrough. Can't I get a break before you start throwing mating requests at ?"
Valeris grinned, her tail flicking behind her. "No breaks. Either fight again, or accept your fate."
She lunged at him, pinning him against the cavern wall, her eyes burning with hunger.
"You're mine now, Asher. Whether you like it or not."
"Then I guess I should beat so sense into you," Asher said, cracking his knuckles.
Valeris let out a low, sultry chuckle, her sharp fangs glinting. "Oh? So confident now, are we?" She stepped forward, her crimson-black claws gleaming under the dim cavern light. "I was planning to let you be an obedient little mate... but if you still think you can resist , then prove it."
She lunged at him, her movents blurring with speed. Her claws slashed through the air, leaving behind a trail of scorching energy, the very space around them cracking under the pressure of her strength.
Asher barely dodged, feeling the heat of her attack graze his skin.
"Tch, if this were ten years ago, I wouldn't have stood a chance. Back then, I might have even died before knowing the full extent of my power." He clenched his fists, his own aura flaring in defiance. "But now? I'm beyond you, Valeris."
She narrowed her eyes, her draconic pupils glowing in amusent. "Oh? My mate has grown cocky. I like it."
Without warning, she unleashed a powerful roar, the force of it sending shockwaves through the cavern. "Then show , my mate! Show the strength that claims to surpass !"
Asher smirked, his body surging with power as he charged forward, eting her head-on in a clash that shook the entire lair.
The impact of their clash sent cracks spiderwebbing across the cavern walls, causing molten rock to drip from the ceiling like burning rain. Asher's fist, wreathed in black and crimson energy, collided against Valeris's outstretched claws, creating an explosion of force and magic that sent both of them skidding backward.
"You're stronger than before, I'll admit that," Valeris purred, licking her lips as the ground beneath them trembled from their power. "But you still haven't proven that you can ta ."
"Ta you?" Asher scoffed, cracking his neck. "That's not my goal, Valeris. But if you won't accept my strength, then I'll make you acknowledge it."
She grinned, her wings unfurling as she rose into the air, her body radiating an intense, dark crimson aura. "Then co, my mate. Prove your dominance!"
Without hesitation, Asher launched himself after her, black lightning crackling around his body as he invoked the Forbidden Dragon Arts. His fists, now coated in Nether Flas, tore through the air as he struck at Valeris with relentless fury.
Valeris t him blow for blow, their battle ascending into the sky, where each clash sent shockwaves rippling through the heavens. The very fabric of reality seed to shudder under their combined power.
She suddenly whipped her tail, striking Asher in the ribs and sending him crashing through a nearby mountain, the rock shattering upon impact.
"You're still holding back, Asher," Valeris taunted, hovering above him as her dragon aura intensified, forming the image of an ancient draconic deity behind her. "If you truly want to submit, then show what you're capable of."
Wiping the blood from his lip, Asher slowly stood, his eyes now glowing with an abyssal light.
"Fine," he growled, his power surging to its peak. "No more holding back."
With a roar, Asher unleashed his full strength, the skies darkening as a massive black storm of dragon energy erupted around him. His transformation was complete—his hybrid form shimring with raw power, his scales like darkened steel, and his eyes burning with an ethereal fire.
Thanks to absorbing the Ancient Dragon Cores, Asher had also gained their bloodlines. Then, using Infinite Fusion, he combined them all into a more pure and powerful form—his newly awakened Pri Dragon Bloodline.
He had yet to find a suitable na for it, as it was a fusion of the Ancient Celestial, Nether, Void, Chronos, and Sunder Dragon bloodlines.
This new power had made him far stronger than before, elevating him to a level beyond what even he had imagined.
Asher stood in the middle of a vast, swirling vortex of dragonic energy, his body pulsing with newfound power. His once-dark aura now shimred with streaks of gold, silver, and deep violet, each representing a different bloodline coursing through him.
Valeris watched from a distance, her crimson-black eyes narrowing as she felt the sheer dominance radiating from him. "You've truly beco sothing terrifying, my mate," she murmured, her claws flexing in anticipation.
Asher clenched his fist, feeling the raw essence of dragons roaring within him. "This strength… It's on a whole different level," he muttered to himself. "But I'm still not done."
He focused inward, refining his power, stabilizing the chaotic fusion of Ancient Celestial, Nether, Void, Chronos, and Sunder Dragon bloodlines. Each one fought for dominance, yet under Asher's will, they slowly lded together, creating a harmonized force unlike anything seen before.
Suddenly, the ground beneath him shattered as a surge of divine and abyssal energy erupted from his body. His scales darkened to an obsidian-black laced with golden cracks, his wings stretched wider, and his aura took on an ethereal glow, shifting between celestial brilliance and nether darkness.
Valeris smirked, stepping forward. "Well, mate… are you finally ready to challenge properly?"
Asher exhaled slowly, his golden eyes glowing like two burning stars. "I think it's ti I show you just how strong I've beco."
The final battle between the Dragon Queen and the Pri Dragon was about to begin.
