Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 349: Hope of the Universe... Part-3.



"While talking to your father, I felt that his circumstances seemed quite similar to mine... He has the burden of a nation on his shoulders, so it was quite easy for us both to find similar topics to talk about..."

Idri further explained that Ashtel had told him about all that happened during Link's birth and also told him that Link seems to have awakened a very powerful talent.

Idri saw a few pictures of the baby Link on Ashtel's phone and immediately figured out that Link has the potential to awaken the 'Dragon Physique'.

Humans don't have the ability to naturally awaken the dragon physique, but there is a secret art in this world that can help you awaken the 'Dragon Physique' eventually if you practice it from childhood.

"The art that can improve physique while also giving amazing combat techniques and power is called 'The Divine Dragon Art'... Truthfully speaking, what you have is the 'Divine Dragon's Physique'..."

Link was really taken aback by those words.

Ever since he started training, he has always thought that his so-called arts were related to dragons, and it helped him improve his physical capabilities.

But he never knew that this 'Dragon Art', which he was considering an ordinary technique, was the reason why he has such a strong physical body.

It is indeed true that he has insane talent, but his talent has nothing to do with this physique.

If Link hadn't had the divine dragon art from the start, he would have never had his insanely strong Divine Dragon Physique.

"Wait, does that imply that you transferred this dragon art to my father, who subsequently permitted me to train with it?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Idri nodded his head at Link's question.

"I hadn't heard of anyone who had survived heavenly punishment beside King Allen... the moment Ashtel Rex said that you were a child who had survived such a big calamity..."

"I already knew that you were definitely special... Also, you had amazing talent from the start... Your own father's martial art techniques are very good too, but Ashtel made his combat techniques on his own..."

"They suit him and only him... Even if you are his son, you are different from him; his techniques are suited for someone who can reach the peak of rank SS, but you are bound to reach a higher realm than that..."

Idri smiled and said in a confident voice,

"But the Divine Dragon Art is extremely suitable for you... All the peak SS-rank dragons that have ever appeared in the dragon race have contributed to making this dragon art..."

"This Divine Dragon art was born from the efforts of more than a hundred peak SS-rank dragons! The very first criteria to practice this art is that you must have talent that surpasses rank SS+."

"Up until your appearance, no one was able to properly learn this art, not even me, but you brought the possibility for us to see the results of practicing this art..."

"Your physique has evolved beyond the limits of a normal human, and your physique is evolving every day to improve!"

Idri's eyes shone brightly, and the more he looked at Link, the more pleasing Link seemed in his eyes.

"We named this dragon art the 'Devine Dragon Art' as we think that this art has the potential to go beyond the realm of a demi-god and reach a higher divine state..."

"With the help of hundreds of 'authorities' of various peak SS rank dragons, we influenced the laws of the world..."

"Link, all peak SS-rankers vaguely know that they need some kind of divine power's assistance if they want to go beyond the realm of a demi-god, but finding that divine power is near impossible..."

"Yet, look at you! Your whole body is slowly heading in the direction of divinity itself!! With the help of 'Dao Rhythm, you accelerated the process; the laws of the world have manifested in your body..."

"In other words, you will be able to go beyond the scope of demi-god much easier! You have the hope to explore a whole new world!"

"All you need to do is master your Dao rhythm further and fully awaken your divine dragon physique..."

Unlike Rio, who had to go through a lot of trouble to find his 'Sword Heart' divinity, Link already had it from the day he started training his physique with the Divine Dragon Art.

But the big difference is that Link has yet to awaken his divinity, whereas Rio has already partially mastered it.

Although Rio's sword heart is still in an 'Imperfect' state, he's already ages ahead of Link in this matter. Link might never be able to catch up to Rio's mastery level at this speed.

"Giving the Divine Dragon Art to your father that day was really a good decision, it seems... I am glad I took the gamble and gave it to you... I am also thankful that he helped you train with

it..."

The more Idri talked, the more excited he became.

Even as the Dragon King, it was really difficult for him to control his excitement.

Ever since mana descended in this world, the dragon race has tried its best to reach the realm above demi-god, but as the as the centuries went by, dozens of peak-SS-rank dragons were born over time.

But none was able to go beyond the scope of a demi-god.

Eventually, most peak-SS-rank dragons either died fighting each other or due to personal conflicts.

Alternatively, they met their demise fighting the powerful demons that occasionally emerged from the miasma-filled dungeon gates during the thousand-year war.

Also, there were some who couldn't sit still and wait for their life span to end, so they left the solar system in search of answers and never came back.

Most dragons don't die from age; they either die in search of knowledge or in battle.

"You have the possibility to one day achieve a real divine dragon physique; at that point, you can also create your own dragon form..."

"You will be able to get the dragon's inheritance and will be able to use true dragon magic just

like other dragons..."

"It won't be wrong to say that you are on a path to become a dragon god!"

Link couldn't help but feel awkward after hearing those words.

"Er, does that mean I won't be a human anymore? T-that might cause problems..."

Idri dismissed those words with a shake of his head.

"No, you will neither be a dragon nor a human; you will be a 'God'... a being that would have surpassed its mortality... You would have a unique existence of your own..."

Link was relieved to hear those words.

'That's good enough, I guess; I don't want to turn into an ugly-looking dragon man... Riya

might run away if I became so ugly...'

What he didn't know was that, even if he became the ugliest creature in the world, Riya

wouldn't abandon him; she seems like she has a weak 'will' but when it comes to Link, it's

impossible to compete with her.

While Link was still contemplating in his mind, Idri directly ignored the strange look on his

face and said,

"It's a pity that your father didn't agree to my request at that time... Otherwise, it would have

been even better..."

Link was confused by those words and asked curiously,

"What request did you make?"

Idri sighed at the question and responded,

"I wanted to arrange an engagement between you and my daughter Selain; you two are of the

same age anyway..."

"With an amazing son-in-law like you being here in the dragon valley, I am sure that not only me but the whole dragon race would have agreed to you becoming the next Dragon King!"

"But things are not out of hand; what do you say, Link? Would you like to become the next Dragon King? You have a physique that is even stronger than the Golden Dragons..." "No one will object if you just say yes... Also, don't worry about anything; you will definitely get much better treatment here than in the human empire..."

"In the human empire, you will still be considered a 'citizen' and everyone is more or less

equal there... but here you will be treated like a 'King'!"

"You can do whatever you want, so what do you think?"

Idri's offer was indeed very great; if it were Fade or anyone else, they would have likely

accepted it instantly.

But the members of Team Astra are different.

Link, Liam, Rio... All three of them have their own ambitions and their own paths; none of the

three will agree even if they are offered this opportunity.

Link immediately shook his head and said, in a serious tone,

"Forgive me; I am already engaged, and I love Riya with all my heart. I won't accept anyone

else.... Also, I really can't become the Dragon King; I will take over my father's duties once he

retires..."

"I aim to become the next Ashtel Rex, 'The Guardian of Humanity'... so I can't accept your

offer..."

At Link's words, Idri sighed and shook his head.

"Sigh, it seems I was too late; I should have made this offer much earlier; now you have already chosen your path, it seems..."

"Forget it... I am happy as long as you can achieve the 'divine physique' on behalf of us dragons... It has been the greatest wish of us dragons to see the 'divine dragon physique'..." "Aside from that, you are always welcome in the Dragon Valley... Whenever you feel like it, you can come, and I will happily give you the position of Dragon King." Idri's words were sincere; although Link has declined the offer, the future is always uncertain after all; maybe Link will change his mind one day, so it's better to make the offer.
