Will woke up feeling sore.

Will got up from his bed and noticed it was still dark outside. Beside him was Sandra sleeping soundly.

Ever since Will got those memories from the Great Sage his respect for him grew. Not once did he blame humanity for summoning him to this world, and instead he helped them. He helped them out of that cave, established the Reyes kingdom, and let humanity thrive.

But sadly all things must come to an end (like this story) and Roy was finally at peace knowing he could pass on without having to worry about humanity, because Will was here.

Will would not have accepted that offer, but he did like giving people homes, giving them safety, seeing them be happy, safe, protected, well fed, he was starting to enjoy it. He also once got a cool stick from a kid because he welcomed his family into his kingdom, such memories will forever be with Will.

Without making a sound to wake her he looked for his armor and items. His armor and items in a neat pile beside him, that had been cleaned and taken care of properly by Sandra, he didn't even remember taking off his armor. Will felt warm and loved from her small gesture and thanked himself that Sandra was a part of his life.

"Thank you." Will whispered and kissed her on the side of her head.

Will put on his armor and teleported to the mountain dragon's corpse.

Will saw that not even 1/10 of the mountain dragon's entire corpse was gone. Hundreds of pack-a-punched Golems with pack-a-punched tools were ripping apart its body and placing it inside of chests. The scene of his Golems tearing down the dragon reminded him of a colony of ants ripping apart an elephant.

There were more Golems exploring around the Empire and the Sun kingdom for safety reasons.

"Master!"

An Incredible Golem rolled towards Will. His deep and menacing voice spooked Will.

'I don't think I will ever get used to that voice.' Will thought.

"You're awake!"

"I am. You made so much progress in a single night. Impressive."

"No, Master, it's been two days."

"Wait, I've been asleep for two whole days?"

"A day and a half to be exact. Master, we are in dire need of chests because we do not have any more space to put the mountain dragon's corpse in. We have the materials here for the chests."

"Oh yeah, I think I remember you saying that."

Will immediately crafted hundreds of chests for his Golems. But there was another problem to be addressed.

"Another thing, Master, the mountain dragon's corpse is too tough and we cannot tear its body as efficiently as I had hoped."

"That's fine. It might take a few weeks or months but you can do it."

"No, Master, that's the problem. What I mean is that the corpse is starting to rot. If it continues to rot I suspect the essence would diminish. I know this from Jack's blacksmith uncle who knows about essences. We need to find a way to keep it from rotting, and to quickly converse its body. If we don't by the time we reach halfway most of the essence would be gone by then, or most of it."

"Well we can't have that happen. Luckily I have a way to keep it cool."

Will took out the weather device from his inventory. With it he conjured a cold storm. It began to snow, and in a matter of minutes the entire area was covered in snow. In a few hours the entire area should be no different from a freezer.

The weather did not reach the Sun kingdom as the device can only affect the area only as far as the holder can see.

"This should preserve its essence a bit longer, Master. But I do not know how we can efficiently tear its body down."

"I think I know how to speed it up a bit. Where are you keeping his scales? I need them asap."

"Right here, Master."

A helicopter Golem flew towards Will, inside there was a chest full of the mountain dragon's scales.

"The scales are extremely durable, possibly even more durable than anti-hero metal."

"Wow, this is the reason the Great Sage had so much trouble killing it. I'll be back. It's getting cold here."

Will took the mountain dragon's scales and managed to make a new dragon-scale armor set. The new armor did not look like his old armor, it was black, and shiny that one could use his armor as a mirror. The areas around his shoulders were spiky but small. Wearing the armor made him feel invincible.

{Mutated dragon-scale armor set)

{Defense total: 999,999,999}

{Set bonus: You can grow as tall as a small mountain}

{Set bonus: You are immune to some of damage, physical and magical}

The defense was amazing for Will although he never really understood how it actually functioned, then again the system has never told him anything about his abilities so it wasn't anything new to him.

The armor he is currently wearing right now was his strongest. Before it got pack-a-punched it had a defense of 1,000, now it had a defense of 10,000 plus its set bonus ability had been upgraded as well.

Will had never seen an armor have two bonus sets before.

Carrying the armor in his arms Will pack-a-punched it. The design was the same but the color was different.

{Mutated dragon-scale armor set {Full potential} }

{Defense total: Inf}

{Set bonus: You can grow as tall as you want}

{Set bonus: All dragon related abilities can be used. All dragon abilities can be compared to the might of 100,000 apex dragons at once. You are in perfect control of all dragon related abilities}

{Set bonus: You are immune to all threats, magical, physical, mental, and soul attacks are of no threat}

Will did not believe it. The pack-a-punched armor set not only gave him another set bonus, infinite defense, but gave him so many wonderful upgraded set bonuses.

He felt that with these abilities, if the mountain dragon were to appear again, he could easily take him down alone. As for the Witch, he was confident he could take her down if she did return, but that was it, he had no methods to defeat her.

Will wore the dragon armor. Like one of the bonus sets said he was in perfect control of his dragon related abilities, including his strength.

Before Will had to always take off his set armor as one accidental wave from his hand, or a stomp from him could easily destroy part or most of his kingdom.

Will returned back to the mountain dragon's corpse. He did not feel cold despite the weather being so harsh.

"Master."

"Golem, command all the Golems to stand far away from the corpse. I think I know how to efficiently tear his corpse."

"Yes, Master."

In a few minutes all the Golems were off the dragon's corpse. Letting out a heavy breath, Will walked towards the dragon and attempted to grow in size.

"Let's do this." Will can finally know what it feels like to be a giant.

As he continued to get closer to the corpse he realized one thing, he still wasn't growing. Then he realized another thing, he had no idea how to use his new ability.

"This again?" Will groaned. He remembered the first time wearing his dragon armor which was made from bones, at the time he also didn't know how to use its ability.

Will took nearly two hours to figure out how to grow taller. Like the set bonus said he could grow as tall as he wanted, but refrained from testing its limits due to the fear of accidentally stepping or tripping on top of all his Golems.

The feeling of growing tall felt immensely weird at first. He could see the ground beneath him was getting further away, but that was from his point of view. The Golems that were taller than him were no different than seeing an ant.

Will grew tall enough to rip apart the dragon's body, using his immense strength he carefully tore it, and left his Golems to pack the corpse inside the chests. With his newfound strength it was easy,

Once Will grew he realized the items he wore, like his rings, bracelet, and weapons, would also grow in size. Once the item left his hands it would shrink back to its ordinary size within five minutes, or when it got destroyed.

It would take Will another two whole days to collect all the dragon's corpse, using nothing but his hands. Any tools he wanted to use would not work on its extremely durable body.

This time Will did sleep during the past few days, on the cold hard ground in the middle of a cold weather.

Once he was done Will returned to his normal size. Being as tall as the mountain dragon was fun and it made him feel powerful.

"That was tiring." Will stretched his limbs.

The snow around him was disappearing because he canceled the weather using the device.

"Well done, Master. And as of now there are no signs of the Witch returning, nor are there signs of the Empress either. Maybe you are right, Master, maybe she did teleport to your home world. Or she's dead."

"It only makes sense that she's back in our world, then again I could be wrong but we will never know. How many chests did you have to use to collect the dragon's corpse?"

"877.5 chests, master."

"HOLY! That's how many chests it took to fill its entire body?" Will was beyond shocked. He had enough dragon essence to last him thousands of years. At least that is what he believes, he was never any good at math.

"I also did not think the number would have been so high considering how much space a single chest can carry."

"Take all the chests back to the Reyes kingdom, we'll start on making more magical items once we're a bit more stocked on mana ores."

"Yes, Master. We'll get on that right away."

Will made it back to his kingdom. The people there were all glad to see Will again, he noticed all of them were looking at him in admiration, more so than before.

"It's him! It's our king!"

"He's back!"

At first it started with a few people clapping, then hundreds of people began clapping for him, cheering him, praising him, chanting his name, with some of them running up to him to shake his hand.

Will was confused. What's with the sudden praise? Not that he was complaining as the feeling was nice.

The people surrounding him then picked him up and they began parading him around the kingdom. Will just went with it, not putting up any resistance in the slightest.

Some of them even began throwing around flowers as if they were confetti.

Looking around he saw Sandra, he could see her also clapping and smiling; to see the man she loved being loved by all those people made her feel immensely proud.

During the past few days Sandra had tended to the people as best as she could. They were all getting restless. The Great Sage is dead, humanity's defender, its greatest hero has died. His death was a shock to everyone, after all what would happen if another mountain dragon were to appear?

Then they hear the Empire had successfully captured the Reyes kingdom without suffering any major casualties. All the heroes in the Reyes kingdom, nobles, sorcerers and the people had been taken as prisoners to the Empire. Then the Empress, Valerie, is missing, the Empire is in disarray trying to look for her.

Then a day ago, a Golem walked up to Sandra offering her help calming down the people, there was only so much she could do by herself.

Sandra agreed thinking Will was the one who gave the command, but in reality the Golem thought it was best if he took action.

The Golem would then bring dozens of worker Golems, Incredible Golems, and Helicopter Golems together to the Reyes kingdom. He gathered everyone in the kingdom in one spot with the help of Sandra as well.

The people were getting nervous, they knew the Golems were Will's creations but they sounded and looked very intimidating.

All the Golems spoke in unison. They recounted the story of the epic fight that had ensued between the mountain dragon versus the Great Sage, Will, and the king of the elves.

Golem had exaggerated some parts of the story:

'He said he witnessed the Great Sage and the mountain dragon were equally as powerful. They had fought for days straight without sleeping, eating, both were just trying their absolute best to destroy the other. The Great Sage blasted the mountain dragon with his most powerful spells, but the dragon's body was near indestructible.

On the last day Will would come in to help the Great Sage. He had created the most powerful army of Golems, each Golem was equipped with the most powerful weapons they had ever seen. The army of Golems would then shoot the mountain dragon, the bullets were so many in numbers that they had covered the sky in bullets.

However, Will had a secret Golem he had been working on, the Devourer of Gods. A Golem big enough that could circle the entire mountain dragon.'

Hearing that name come out of his mouth, Sandra tilted her head in confusion. Did Will seriously name a Golem after a Terraria Calamity mod boss, and never told her about it to witness his creation in person? One of the many games she played with Will and Alex was Terraria and the Calamity mod, it was one of their best memories before Alex died.

At that moment, the Devourer of Gods would appear before the people of the Sun kingdom. The people were obviously scared at first at the sight of a giant monster.

They soon realized that the Devourer of Gods was truly another creation of Will, and he could command it made them all feel in awe of his prowess.

'The Golem would tell how the Devourer of Gods would restrain the mountain dragon and even eat its eyeball. But that still wasn't enough to take down the mountain dragon, the elves also had a major part in this battle.

Sending their greatest bow master, the king of the elves, with the sole purpose of fighting the monster dragon along with Will and the Great Sage and the army of Golems. The Golem said that the king of the elves had grabbed his strongest bow, armed with the strongest enchantments with the greatest quality arrows, which was a secret weapon that the elves had been hiding for eons. And that with a single arrow he took out the dragon's right eye.

At the end the Great Sage sacrificed himself. He came down from the heavens like a meteor and made a giant hole through the mountain dragon's body.

The Golem would then recount how in the Great Sage's final words, he told Will he was humanity's new savior, and to take his place defending humanity, and the elves. Will then agreed to his proposal, with that the Great Sage could pass on in peace.'

Many of what he said was exaggerated: Silvas did not own a secret, powerful weapon hidden for eons, it was his favorite bow that Will pack-a-punched and enchanted it with more powerful enchantments. And Will never agreed to protecting humanity, in fact Golem wasn't even there when they were talking, he just made up that part to appease the people.

He also added the part of the elves' contribution so that hopefully, in the near future, elves and humanity would be able to tolerate one another, he knew it would help Will as he was friends with some elves, and Adaline, who deeply cares for Arbor, an elf.

The story of the battle would be retold hundreds of times in a single day within the Sun kingdom. Yes, the strongest hero died in protecting them, but he had elected a new hero to take his place, Will.

In the end the Golem's plan worked. No one was worried anymore.

And that is why everyone was parading Will around the kingdom and were all beyond happy.

After a few minutes they gently placed Will down in front of his castle. The people proceeded to stand a bit far from Will. Hundreds of people all were staring at him in awe still. Will was just as confused as before.

"Praise the sun!" A man in front of Will said as he raised both his arms up.

Everyone behind him did the same thing.

"Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!" "Praise the sun!"

Everyone raised their hands and said the same thing, even kids did it. Amelia, her family, Jack, Jasmine, everyone did it. It was a magnificent sight to behold.

Sandra also raised her hands up.

When Will and Sandra were first planning the name of the Sun kingdom, Sandra mentioned how the kingdom should be named the 'Sun kingdom' because then they could make the people chant "praise the sun" to Will, who is the king. It is one of Will's favorite game series of all time, Dark Souls.

Will did not believe Sandra would actually pull it off as he thought it would be too cringe, but she did it, and to them it didn't feel cringe at all.

'Sandra, you son of a gun!' behind his mask, Will was smiling, basically grinning from ear to ear. 'How I wish Alex were here to see this.'

In the end Will commanded everyone to go home. The day would resume as normal.

Sandra walked up to Will, but Will grabbed her and lifted her up while twirling her.

"I can't believe you actually pulled that off!" Will said.

"I know, right? It was easier than I expected. I wanted to do it sooner but you were very busy."

Sandra took off Will's mask and helmet to see his face. Will grabbed her hand gently.

"Is everything okay now?" Sandra asked.

"For now, yes. I still need to do a few important things."

"Like what?" Sandra did not think Will had anything else to accomplish, and she was hoping they could spend time together.

"First: I've been thinking; I need to do something horrible you might not like, I've been thinking of committing mass genocide."

"Wait, what?"
