Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

Ronan was out for a full two days before he came back to his senses. He had overexerted his body to the limits and his body had given in to exhaustion once it could no longer take it anymore.

The medical staff had a scare following Ronan being sent to the infirmary knocked out like a block of ice.

Only minor injuries on his outer body , yet an overheated mana circuit and a damaged dantian from overuse. Ronan’s body was a mess internally and the doctors had to spend 18 hours operating on him before he stabilized.

” It’s ridiculous how much damage this boy can do to himself “. the head doctor Exclaimed once the surgery was over , as this was the second time that Ronan had entered the infirmary from pushing his body beyond his means.

The school had to spend extremely expensive medicinal liquids to heal Ronan’s mana circuit , with just one dose costing principal chanakaya a year’s worth of his salary , however for him it was worth it , as Ronan managed to master an A ranked move in just 3 months.

That one event shattered chanakya’s worldview completely as Ronan’s status as just another prodigious student was eliminated completely from his mind.

Chanakya was sure after seeing Ronan , that there would never be another one in the history of mankind , quite like him again.

Ronan was undoubtedly a dragon among men who would become a supreme existance should he be allowed to grow.

***

Ronan’s first reaction as he woke up was to punch the image of Percy floating in his head , however all he did was take off the Saline drips inserted into his hands as the forceful removal of needles made him a bleeding mess._.

The medical staff rushed to calm Ronan , as he realized that he was no longer in the martial arena , as the memories of him being knocked out flashed in his mind.

Principal chanakaya and the red house master also rushed to his bed once the news of him waking up reached them , as Ronan just closed his eyes as he tried to digest his defeat.

Chanakya was worried that the defeat may weigh Ronan down and become a psychological burden , however when he saw Ronan with a bright smile on his face he was relieved.

” My brother is the strongest isn’t he? “. Ronan said , having no regrets in loosing since he was sure that he had given the fight his absolute best.

He never expected to be able to beat Percy , however defeat still stinged his heart as it forged his resolve to do even better next year.

” But brother always says , if there is anyone who can surpass him , it will be me . So next year the result won’t be the same , i will make sure of it! “. Ronan said in a determined voice as he made eye contact with red house master , assuring her of his victory.

The red house master was pleasantly surprised as she smiled at Ronan and said ” You dint do too shabby this year either boy , show some more spirit , you made us reds proud ! “.

At this moment loud chatter could be heard coming from outside the infirmary as a crowd of hundereds of students had blocked the hall outside , all rushing to the infirmary once the news of Ronan waking up reached them.

Principal chanakaya smiled as he said ” seems like the fans are here “.

Ronan had a puzzled expression on his face as he had no idea that he was the darling of the academy of Avalon now , as irrespective of class , level or house , everyone was now a supporter of the prodigy Ronan Draco!

The spirit with which he fought made the hearts of those that cheered the underdog bleed , as his eventual defeat solified his connection to the masses , as they hailed him as the hero.

This situation would have been true for Percy too had he lost , however this was the loosers privilege , as after such an intense fight the audience’s hearts were always moved for the loosing side.

Ronan however was not able to meet his fans for 6 more hours untill he was discharged from the infirmary , however not before jumping in shock at discovering the fact that he was level 33 now!

Apparently he had levelled up mid fight and even in his unconscious state as his body was much stronger than it was before he went into the fight.

This was good news which made his mood after his loss a little more happier.

The night was spent in the Bhakti House common room as everyone flooded him with gifts and good wishes , as there was a whole battle recap of his fight with Percy.

Captain Yami was the personal protector of Ronan as he mentained a 6 feet perimeter around Ronan lest he be molested by his mad fan-girls.

Ronan felt happy for some reason inside the red house common room as for the first time he spoke more than 3 sentences through the night.

He was starting to feel more comfortable in the academy now spending over 6 months there , however little did he know that it would be his last time here , as this moment would never come again.

The winter break was starting in 3 days , and a sinister assassination attempt awaited the Draco boys on their way home.

——

( meanwhile at the palace )

Augustus looked over the horizon as he smoked some herbal grass that was good for the lungs as he sighed rather than exhaling after each drag.

” When will the children come home Luna? i can’t wait anymore , i feel like going to get them at the academy myself “. Augustus said with a sad voice.

Luna laughed as she took a drag from Augustus’s pipe and replied ” 3 days , our little darlings will be home in 3 days , that’s not even 75 hours grandpa , you can surely wait that much “.

Augustus did not like Luna teasing him as he frowned and said ” Don’t chide me , I’m a grown man even though you don’t treat me like one. I am genuinely worried about the security of the kids on the road back to the palace , with all these terrorist attacks , one can never be too cautious”.

Luna tried to hold in her laughter as she said ” Soo the great Augustus phoenix , the patriarch of the Phoenix clan only trained to become an extremely strong warrior to offer escort services to his grandchildren.

OOO how love corrupts the people soft at hearts “.

Augustus’s eyebrow’s twitched at this remark as he wanted to produce a rebuttal but could not as in the end he settled with a ” HMPH, You won’t understand “. and stormed out of the room.

Grandma Luna found Augustus’s concern to be extremely childish as she could not help but giggle for a good few minutes.

70 soldiers , all level 60 or higher were in the convoy tasked with bringing the two prince’s home.

Unless there were a group of ascended within the terrorist ranks who could take on this unit and wipe it out within Avalon before reinforcements arrived , it was impossible to harm the children.

Which was why she found Augustus’s concerns to be childish , as she waved it off as an overly loving grandfather’s delusions.

Little did she know that 4 assassins , level 101,102,103and 104 had taken on the mission to kill the Draco boys in the journey from the national academy of Avalon towards the palace.

As an ambush was being set-up by them at this moment in a desolate part of the journey that was strategically 40 minutes away from the nearest reinforcement centre.

However they had confidence to finish the job within 40 minutes.

With Maddy’s information and William and the Phoenix clan being hard pressed for war by the nothern chieftains

The two parties had decided to bet big on the assassination of the royal prince’s , as they paid a huge sum of money to the Assassin’s guild based in the Central empire to take the job of this assassination.

The Central empire was currently the most dominant force in the north eastern region of Everlon continent and was the only force who would not bother giving Alexander any face once the connection was made back to the central empire for the death of the two prince’s.

William wanted to avoid the situation that happened with his seven seas organization to come and bite him back with sanctions and political deals.

Hence the clock started to tick. In three days time the Draco boys were about to face their biggest challenge uptill this point in their life as at this moment , death seemed the only possibility.
