Tree of Life.
The Tree Spirit, Hamuna, stood atop a vast leaf, watching the shadow of the Red Dragon Emperor stretch across the realm.
"So… this was my true purpose, my love?" she murmured softly. "To save your heir?"
Her emerald-green eyes reflected a quiet tsunami, restrained only by will.
"Haha… very well then," she whispered. "If you were confident enough to place all your hopes on that human boy, then I shall do my part."
Meanwhile, at Aquabyss:
Seeing Naida charging toward him, the Red Dragon snorted in disdain.
< Hmph! Little fish, do you really think you can save him? How naïve! >
As soon as he finished speaking, a wall of crimson energy halted Naida's charge completely.
Naida immediately summoned the remnant power of her Sea Scepter.
Hum! Humm! Hummm!
Instantly, tides of golden water rushed in from all sides and shattered the crimson wall with a deafening—
CRASH!
She wasn't done yet.
