Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

Ronan saw shakuni in a different light after shakuni told him about what the world order was all about. Eventhough he could not forgive the world order for what it had done to his sensei , Ronan was now more inclined to listen to shakuni as he respected his contribution to humanity .

Although Ronan had no way to confirm that what shakuni said was the truth or was he masking the truth from him and feeding him lies .

Ronan was not gullible and would usually not take what strange people said at face value , yet he felt like he could beleive in Shakuni’s words as the man had no reason to lie to a kid like him.

Ronan understood that if Shakuni wanted to , he could get any disciple in this world , he did not need to personally come to a small kingdom like Avalon and try to convince a brat like him to be one.

With his power and influence he could easily compel Ronan to meet him at his sect and even force him as a captive on that mountain . Yet the old man did not take that approach .

He was not only respectful to his father but also gifted a lot of wealth to bury the hatchet for the last time world government officers arrived at scene and disrespected the Draco family.

Ronan knew that respect must be given where it was deserved hence for the first time since shakuni was here , the hostility in Ronan’s eyes towards him faded as he said ” Old man … I respect you for upholding peace and justice. You have been very patient and i appreciate that. However I want to ask you something before i make up my mind about your offer “.

Shakuni’s eyes sparkled to see the changes in Ronan as he stroked his beard faster and said ” Go ahead “.

” What happens when i kill all the balancers who wronged me … your balancers , will you stand in my way to stop me? “._.

Shakuni smiled as he heard that question as he let his aura float free just for a second as Incredible amount of pressure suffocated Ronan .

” The day you surpass me , is the day i stop standing in your way , before that day you tow the line as i say ! “.

Shakuni asserted his dominance as he made things clear for Ronan , the day he surpassed shakuni was the day he got to do as he pleased , but with shakuni already being at the very peak of humanity , it would mean that Ronan could do as he pleased only after he could become the very best in Everlon.

Drenched in sweat and gasping for air , Ronan looked at shakuni with trembling eyes as he said ” Just how strong are you …? “.

Ronan had never felt so suffocated in his life before , and he realised that shakuni had not been using his full strength when he was applying pressure on him in the throne room as at this moment the aura that he unleashed was exponentially stronger than the one he used in the throne room as it made Ronan wonder just how strong the old man really was.

Shakuni chuckled at the question , as his eyes turned laser sharp , grabbing his sword from seemingly nowhere he pointed outside the window towards a far away mountain that was 40 kms away from the capital city.

” Watch … “. Shakuni said as he gripped his blade and looked towards the mountain while being completely focused .

Ronan saw the pose and the power that the old man was emitting and he became mesmerized with the beautiful stance and the poise.

WHIPLASH!

It happened in a split second as shakuni unsheathed and sheathed his sword , as a sword slash as tiny as a window opening was unleashed that travelled through the air with a terrifying Sonic boom

BOOM!

Ronan watched outside the window as he saw the small sword cut expand and expand and expand until it became several killometers wide and cut through the mountain top 40 kms away as if it was made of paper.

SLICE!

The attack went clean through the mountain as Ronan was left mouth agape as he saw the rocks and trees fall in a massive landslide.

Ronan could not even comprehend how someone could be this powerful , as he looked at shakuni in a completely different light. There were no chants involved there was no use of elemental energy , this move was not even his ultimate move or even his grand move , yet he could effortlessly do that .

Realising that what shakuni said was probably true and how he could easily wipe entire countries out , he felt his throat run dry as he looked at the old man in shock.

Throwing a side glance at Ronan shakuni said ” That’s my original sword technique , but it can be used with any sharp blade.

Although this was only a demonstration , at its strongest … this move can even slice the moon in half ! “.

Ronan’s mind blanked out when he heard shakuni claim that this move could even slice the moon in half as he looked at the old man in new light.

‘ Could he actually have the opportunity to learn from this man? and become his disciple? could be become this strong too? ‘.

As Ronan contemplated in his mind about what he was feeling at the moment , shakuni smiled to see that his plan had worked.

Shakuni understood that the kid was fascinated with strength and his greatest desire in life was to become strong.

This was why shakuni went this far to show him one of his best moves , as he wanted to convince Ronan that he was the real deal.

Seeing the kids reaction he knew that it worked like a charm , as Ronan was completely shook up to even utter a single noise.

As shakuni saw the eyes of the kid looking at him visibly change in emotion , he felt assured that his plan to recruit a disciple was going to be a success.

Stroking his beard he looked towards the mountain top he just cut , and let the awesomeness he created hang in the air for a bit longer.

******

( Meanwhile Sierra )

” My son has barely even been home Alexander , yet he has yet to spend one proper evening with me. First the banquet , then he faints and now just as he wakes up there is a protector that shows up at our doorstep and now i cannot even see him in the infirmary . THIS WONT DO !!!! *sob* *sob* *sob” “. Sierra shouted at Alexander as she cried inconsolably.

Something or the other always seemed to be happening with Ronan and she could never seem to find quality mother son time to spend with him.

When he was just a kid , she had to understand that training was important for him to survive , so she let Alexander train the boys all day as she would only meet them at nights for about half hour each day before bed.

Then her heartbroke when school started and she could only see them in 4-5 months for a few days time. But she accepted it because education and social skills were important for her children to grow strong and civil.

Then Ronan was attacked and kidnapped and she could not see her child for years and had to only survive on his letters that he wrote once a month and even those stopped for 3 years after one abrupt letter that did not explain where he was or what he was doing.

Then when finally her son miraculously appeared out of nowhere she could still not spend time with him as something or the other was always happening around him , and now Sierra was on the verge of snapping as she could not take it anymore.

” Why …. why is that man here Alexander ? is he going to take my Ronan away … because he will need to do it over my dead body ! I will not allow it ! “. Sierra cried hysterically as she said this as Alexander felt his heart pain to see his wife cry.

He could not explain things to her properly , but it was this very outcome that he wanted to avoid and it was the reason why he rejected shakuni in the first place.

However he could not explain the circumstances to Sierra who did not think that Alexander loved her kids the same way she did as he was painted the villain in Sierra’s mind.

” He is the strongest human in the continent Sierra , and he wants to make Ronan his student . I allowed him an audience with him in private , but that’s it. I leave the decision to him “. Alexander said as politely as he could.

But his reply only added to Sierra’s rage and tears as she glared at him and said ” I’m going to get my son back …. and you will not stop me Alexander Draco … dont you dare stop me ! “.

Storming out of the room , Sierra ignored Alexander shouting her name as she made her way to the royal infirmary.
