Chapter 125 - Mountain Of Will 6
As soon as Dante made it 80% of the way up the mountain, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and was forced to the floor.
But Dante wouldn't allow himself to end it all here. His pride wouldn't let him fail here!
"Dragonification!"
"boom!"
Instantly, blood red scales began to grow out of his skin while a pair of twisted black horns formed on his forehead.
Dante had now released the soul of The Red Dragon, the most ferocious and violent of all the Dragon species.
With rage filled eyes, Dante just wouldn't submit under the pressure practically crawled his way up the mountain.
"crack!"
Yet just desire wasn't enough.
Bones started to creek all over Dante's body under the pressure of the mountain.
but regardless of his terrible physical state, Dante didn't seem to care anymore.
All reason had left his mind, he l was only moving off pure instinct and desire.
For Dragons, Pride was the thing they would be willing to die for and Dante, this was no different.
A Dragon's pride must never be humiliated!
If his pride meant that he would die on this mountain, then so be it!
"Dragonification!"
In his madness, Dante did something he had only theorised before.
Stimulating his two Dragon souls, Dante finally underwent two Dragonified states at the same time!
Instantly, Dante's whole body seemed to shiver as a blinding silver gleam burst from deep within his chest.
This silver light quickly coated Dante's body, causing a silvery metallic sheen to be added to all his scales
But Dante's transformation wasn't over just yet as the signature Crystalline horns of the silver Dragon grew out his head. Maybe it was because Red Dragon horns were already there, but instead of growing out of his forehead like usual, Dante's crystal horns actually grew out the side of his head.
"ROAR!!"
With blood pouring out every single orifice, Dante and his Dragon souls all let off a Draconic roar that seemed to shake the sky.
Through sheer stubbornness and pride, Dante managed to muster the strength to break through the last step!
He had done it!
He had done the impossible and scaled the mountain of will!
As soon as Dante reached the top step, the mountain seemed to shake.
"Rumble! Rumble!"
"ROAR!"
A blinding Chinese dragon composed of pure golden energy, coiled around the mountain before shooting into the sky.
"The coiling dragon. The symbol of the Hidden Dragon Academy... He really did scale the Mountain of Will.."
cometed an Onlooker in pure awe.
"Hahaha!"
seeing the Dragon in the sky, Dante burst into a mad bout of laughter.
"I've really done it!"
" I've scaled the mountain!"
High on the feeling of succes, Dante sneered at the mountain beneath his feet."
"Hahah! Eat shit!"
after taunting a mountain like a madman, Dante suddenly felt lightheaded and quickly rested on the ground.
As Dante sat down he quickly checked himself out.
"Fuck!"
Seeing his body completely drenched in his own blood Dante couldn't help but exclaim.
"How did I even bleed that much!" Said Dante in disbelief
"Shit! This definitely needs to be checked out!"
Luckily, as Dante was preparing to come down he could see the flying figures of Grandfather Jarred and Rebecca rushing to come check up on him.
Knowing that he was finally safe, Dante gave into his exhaustion and slumped onto the ground.
if you looked closely at Dante, you could see him snoring on the ground with a proud smirk on his face.
...
A day had now passed since Dante's awe inspiring spectacle at the Mountain of will.
The news of Dante's achievements had spread through the capital like wildfire.
And this was the ultimate confirmation all the clans needed,
The last confirmation that a new generational talent was truly born!
With his new achievement came an overwhelming number of visits of various clans and patriarchs, all offering gifts to try and build a good connection with Dante.
Of course, the greedy nature of a dragon did not allow for him to refuse any treasures presented his way.
so Dante had no other choice than to greedily accept anything presented his way!
Dante was currently in the largest hall of his new residence.
It's just that now, the room was very different from its original state when Dante first got it.
Open Chests filled with gemstones and gold coins lay sprawled throughout the room. Whilst luxurious paintings and weapons were stacked and hung on the walls of the room.
Dante was slouched lazily in a completely golden chair embedded with gems, with the gigantic Moonlight Sword leaning against him.
Dante was playing with a ruby by rolling it in between his fingers as he stared at the beautiful treasure, seemingly mesmerised by it.
Beside him sat Rebbeca in a much more modest chair with a displeased look in her face.
Rebecca had just come to be a watch over Dante as he accepted the gifts.
Dante was still new to the capital and as such, he wouldn't see the plots and schemes of all the clans that came to visit.
Rebecca there to prevent Dante from doing anything stupid and ensure that he wasn't tricked into making any stupid decisions.
but instead of doing her job, she had instead been forced to watch this spectacle...
Dante seemed to be obsessed with treasure to a dangerous extent.
He would accept almost any and all treasure presented his way, but not just accept them.
Dante seem to hoard every single treasure he got, displaying it all in obvious places just to look at and admire.
If it was not for her constant scolding, Rebecca was sure that Dante wouldn't even be sitting in his chair. He would instead be on the ground, laying down on his pile of treasure!
But What Rebbeca did not know was that Dante's obsession with treasure was not entirely his fault.
As a bearer of a dragon soul, Dante's actions will, whether willingly or unwillingly, be influenced by a dragon's nature.
