[Congrats, You Have Earned 5 Qualification Points]
Finally, the qualification points came. I was confused as to why seeing the Guardian would give me five points. I was in the middle of celebrating when I heard a voice coming from the direction of the Guardian.
"Who dares to wake me up."
The dragon let out a powerful aura, I stood there, not able to move, and acted tuff, but deep inside, I was terrified. His gorgeous eyes radiated dark energy and pierced through my soul. I found myself falling into a deep hole full of blades. I tried to breathe, but the atmosphere surrounding me was full of toxic smoke. I was about to doze off, but then I heard the beautiful voice of Fahima.
[Detected, Hostile Intimidation Aura Of Sovereignty, The Host Is Advised to Protect Himself]
"Fahima, how do I protect myself? I could hardly breathe."
[Calm Your Breath And State your Desire]
I closed my eyes and slowed my breath. I would face more dangerous and influential people in the future, and I don't want anyone to be looking down on me. I want to be able to use my powers to defend myself. I want to rule and leave behind my legacy. The Guardian would be my stepping stone to enter the center stage of this world. At this moment, I could feel the mighty power inside me start to take shape; then, I heard Fahima's voice ring out.
[The Aura Of God Activated]
Dark and powerful energy jumped out of my body; the toxic atmosphere around me became easier to breathe; I opened my eyes and looked towards the Guardian.
The Guardian felt a powerful aura coming toward him; his cold eyes looked concerned, and he put on a shield of magic to protect himself, but it was fruitless. The powerful energy pierced through his shield and grabbed hold of him. A drop of sweat dripped off his face. He roared and spoke.
"Interesting, to make me feel fear, I can't remember the last time I felt fear, boy. What purpose do you have coming here?"
"My companion told me if I want to get out of this cave, I need to defeat the guardian."
The dragon laughed and said.
"Indeed, I'm the guardian, but you won't be able to escape the chains of death by defeating me."
"I don't understand. Could you explain to me what this place is?"
I was once the most powerful creature on this planet. Still, I was betrayed by those I called friends, and locked me in Lethe the Internal river of forgetness, were sinners of Erubes are prisoned and made me the guardian of this place, but I could tell you are not a prisoner of this place, who are you?
I was somewhat relieved to know the name of this place and why I couldn't remember anything. If this is the prison of sinners, what did I do to end up here, and the guardian is proper? I could feel the moment I woke up that I didn't belong in this world and to answer the guardian's question.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"I woke up in this place unable to remember my past self; I hope you have answers for me."
The dragon shook his head and stared me down; his beautiful yet dangerous eyes twitched and glowed a bright light and said.
"Soul Search."
The Guardian, Launched an invincible attack on my soul; I felt the eyes of a dragon enter my body, then Fahima spoke.
[The Guardian Has Used The Skill Soul Search; Host Would You Like Me to Cancel It]
Fascinating soul search; he's able to search the souls of others; at the moment, I don't have anything to hide, so I would like to know what he finds.
The Guardian began to search my soul, but a minute later, he coughed blood, and his tone and demeanor changed into that of a little kid, and he yelled
"Impossible; you have the soul of a God, who doesn't belong in this world, but at the same time, your body does."
I made the right choice to let him search me; my body belongs in this world, but the soul doesn't; engaging, the answers created more questions, but what does he mean my soul doesn't belong in this world?
"What do you mean my soul doesn't belong in this world?"
"The Gods of this world are evil and power hungry, and their souls are corrupt, but your soul is clean, and no one in this world has a clean soul."
"No one has a clean soul; what kind of world is this? Everyone's soul is clean when they are born, right?"
"You're right about that, but this world is a dark and cursed one, and everyone's heart is blanched in darkness the moment they are born; even the nobles like me are born to become evil in the end."
I liked talking to the dragon; he looked cute and knew this world. His an information pool for me, so I decided to negotiate with him.
Fahima, is there a way I can make him my loyal servant?
[Yes, Would You like to Sign a Contract With The Guardian]
"Yes."
"I planned to defeat you and leave this creepy cave, but I have changed my mind; how would you like to become my companion."
"It's impossible to get out of here; I have been locked up for thousands of years unless you break the chains of death."
"What's the chain of death?"
The Guardian pointed his head down to his right leg. An Invincible black chain was wrapped around his right leg; a scar caused by the chain was still visible, and he said."This is the chain of death even the Gods can't break."
Even the Gods can't break it; interesting, I would not let this chain keep me from leaving here. "Fahima, can I break this chain?"
[Yes, Approach The Chain And State Your Title]
"Guardian would you sign a contract with me; if you do, I will set you free from the chains of death?"
We dragons are noble creatures and don't sign a contract with everyone, but this person has a strange soul, and it won't be impossible for him to break the chains; the old me would laugh at me right now, but I have been here for too long. I want to see the sun and fly freely.
"I agree, but I have one condition."
"Ok, state your condition"?
"Thousands of years ago, I fell in love with a human woman, and I was about to marry her, but unfortunately, I was on my way to the human kingdom when my friend betrayed me, and in the end, I was locked up here, not able to see her, and my condition is to visit the human king."
The dragon put his head down to hide his tears. Love even made a dragon cry; cute, I have no issue with a man chasing his lover.
"I promise, one of these days, we will visit the human kingdom, but humans have a short life, and I think she's long gone."
"That woman won't die so easily."
I approached the chain of death, but I could feel the dark energy from miles away; I closed the distance between the chain, but I felt like I was walking backward, then the chain took the shape of a black snake and attacked me. I did as Fahima said.
I, God of sleep, curse you to sleep for eternity."
The chain stopped its approach, and all suddenly dropped to the floor.
[Eternal Sleep Activated]
"Impossible; you made the chain of death fall an eternal sleep, haha; they would cry If they found out their most powerful weapon is put to sleep by a kid." I was still shocked at what the kid did, but an even weirder thing appeared before me.
[Would You Sign A Contract With God Of Sleep] [Yes] [No]
"Interesting; yes, it would be fun to see what kind of trouble this kid creates in the future."
[Congratulations, You Have Signed a Contract With Typhon, The Father Of All Monsters]
