Alexia
After just a few hours of training, I find myself faced with a surprise when I feel a source of energy appear in front of the dungeon. A powerful source that quickly heads over to my little house and proves itself to belong to Lucas.
Did he really rush out of the dungeon or was he almost finished already? Because three hours to leave a dungeon is… not much ti.
"Why were you in a dungeon anyways…?" I mutter out loud while looking at the man standing in front of the bed I'm currently sitting on in a cross-legged pose.
He furrows his brows for a second before answering, "Looking for Tier 3 items and killing level capped monsters. For my ascension requirents."
Oh. That makes more sense.
Was confused since he was already at the level cap of Tier 3, so fighting monsters in a dungeon is just a waste of ti at this point.
It does make curious what his ascension requirents are though. Considering that his Class was given to him thanks to his Legendary Feat given Title, the Hound of the Apocalypse.
A Title he, as it turns out, didn't actually earn himself.
An odd realization when I think about it.
That his most famous Title and Legendary Feat weren't given to him for sothing he himself did.
"So you decided to visit after all?" he asks, a smile replacing the frown on his face.
I nod my head.
"And what about your sister?" he continues, unperturbed by my silence.
"She's handling things back at The Retreat while I go around to complete my ascension requirents," I tell him while uncrossing my legs and turning them over the edge of the bed. "And catching up to my level while she's at it."
"Right, she's not at the level cap yet," Lucas mutters as he begins to pace back and forth, seemingly worried over Astrid. Then he goes and mutters to himself, possibly not aning to speak out loud, "Maybe I should send soone over to protect her? Or I could-"
"Stop," I tell him, making him stop pacing right away to look at with surprise on his face. And at this point any fear I had towards the Hound of the Apocalypse is just plain gone. All I can see him as is an overprotective father and a man who was rather badly wronged. "Astrid would be rather upset if you tried to help her. She's almost as solitary as I am and doesn't want help. She wants to do things on her own."

We're similar in that way.
Even if I technically was given a lot of my current power through the machinations of a certain quantum idiot.
A wing hits in the head, making glare at the idiot in question as he flies away from my shoulder. But said idiot doesn't say a word.
"Oh," Lucas mutters, sounding slightly crestfallen. But he recovers quickly as he asks, "What's with this house anyways?"
I look around for a mont before rembering that the item I'm using to store the house was a reward from the System Tutorial. It may well not have existed before the Reset.
So I get up from the bed and teleport outside of the house, with Lucas following shortly after, appearing from so sort of black light in the grass next to . Then I go ahead and put the house back into the ring, startling him.
"Got this nifty ring from the Tutorial rewards," I tell him while holding up my hand to show him. And after he looks at it for a few seconds, I lower my hand again. "It's rather convenient."
"I bet," he says with a smile. "You want to head towards my capital?"
The way he says 'my capital' is rather amusing, but I guess he is the Dinsional Leader and Champion of this Block, so it only makes sense that it would technically be his. And his not having committed genocide like many believe doesn't really change the fact that he is still technically a tyrant.
"Sure," I answer with a nod.
And without hesitation, he begins to flap his wings and lead the way, with teleporting behind him.
For quite a while.
I really don't think I like this Block. It's too big.
And there's too much water. Just water everywhere.
Then again, it's better than that lava world Block I saw before. Where it was almost entirely lava with just so islands scattered throughout.
That was rather terrifying to see.
It was also not-so-suspiciously barren of people.
Lots of monsters though.
And lava fish.
Can't forget the lava fish.
Especially the Cataclysm Class one that was the size of an island.
Although that Block would've been far worse if I didn't already have adaption to fire magic. Because I know it was a very hot place.
Eventually Lucas and I begin to get within sight of the place I instantly link to this capital he spoke of. A very large city on an equally large island. One filled to the brim with people.
And judging by the technology on it, I wouldn't be surprised if he gathered up all of the competent engineers and scientists and the like from the nearby Blocks to work for him. Since the city looks very high tech compared to the cities in the other Blocks I've been to.
Even if it isn't quite to the level of technology it was before the Reset in so places.
There's also so rather large stadium on one end of the city and a massive theatre on the other.
"Welco to the capital of Dinsional Block #1, and my new ho," Lucas says with a grin as we continue heading towards the city.
Probably also the largest city that I've seen since the Reset, if I'm being honest.
Aaaand, of course the soldiers on watch imdiately grow terrified at the sight of us.
I'm just happy it's not just that they're afraid of this ti.
