Kapitel 25: A Stronger Enemy
The draconic ME started to follow the strand, racing towards it all while Kai couldn't do anything to stop it. He could only watch helplessly while the invading force hunted the strand that continued to race back to its source: the mystical blood orb.
The draconic ME followed the strand like a panther stalking a helpless deer while it didn't know that it was leading the predator into the hidden sanctuary.
Once the strand entered the blood orb, the draconic ME stopped outside like it had intelligence and looked at the blood orb in wonder and admired the orb.
It stopped for a moment and Kai hoped that it would leave his body. Unfortunately for Kai his wish never came true and instead the invading ME pounced on the orb enveloping it in the foreign ME.
The blood orb instantly started to defend itself by using a reflective field using a strand as the fuel to protect itself from the invading energy.
Eventually, the blood orb's defence was pierced, and the ME greedily started consuming the ME from the original creator of a person's ME: the soul. The blood orb used another strand to expel the invading ME from Kai's body.
The draconic ME was repelled from Kai's body with a large invisible explosion, causing it to land on the ground. Kai looked at the draconic energy and was surprised and scared of the changes of the draconic energy's changes.
The first and most eye-catching was the fact that it was no longer pure ME, it had a corporeal body. The size of the dragon was merely 2 meters long and 1 meter tall, however, that didn't stop it from having a terrifying aura.
The aura gave Kai the feeling of seeing a god or devil, with such an intimidating feeling the space around the newly formed dragon had started to be destroyed simply by his presence being there.
The dragon looked at Kai with interest but seemed to have something more important to do so he reluctantly left Kai and touched the ground.
The ground split creating a huge hole and the little dragon jumped into the large hole without hesitation. After a few moments, Kai tried to sense the dragon but he couldn't anymore so after a few moments of hesitation he decided to leave due to him being completely helpless before the dragon's terrifying might.
While Kai decided to leave, the dragon had finally entered its lair. It passed the countless mountains that were part of its lair and entered the main chamber.
[Now the people that are going to say that his lair is underground and therefore can't have mountains, there is an explanation later so please wait patiently.]
It declared with a loud echoing roar "You won't be able to keep me locked up anymore, I will finally restore my power and get my revenge. This world will feel the wrath of I Dahak after being locked up inside this chamber for the last 11 millennia!"
The dragon known as Dahak looked at the enormous chamber big enough to fit a complete city and laughed. Inside the actual chamber the there wasn't any decorations, it was completely bare with the exception being the extremely large pitch black scale that had an unnatural red coloured molten lava flowing through it lay in the middle of the chamber.
Dahak moved towards the scale and looked at it with a crazed glint in his eyes. 'Once I absorb the energy from my reverse scale I will be able to regain 50% of my power and then only gods will be able to stop me.'
"Bahahaha" Dahak cackled madly with his head raised to the ceiling. He climbed onto the scale and embedded his claws into the scale and started to absorb the pure draconic energy that was hidden inside the scale.
The dragon's original light red scales started to glow with a pitch-black light and slowly changed into the same colour as the scale.
Above ground
Kai left the area with sour thoughts. He felt ashamed of the fact that he was beaten without being able to resist at all. Kai continued to think of the way he was beaten so miserably causing himself much mental anguish and suffering.
After coming to this world, he had thought that he would be invincible. When he was warned by Bathilda, he didn't take her words seriously.
The immediate power gain had caused him to disregard any consequences that he would experience in the future, and now that he lost he understood that he should be more cautious.
After he calmed down, Kai tried to understand why a dragon would appear in the middle of nowhere. When he couldn't think of a reason why such a powerhouse would appear so suddenly, he got on another train of thought: why would this dragon be so powerful?
Kai had fought and killed other dragons and they were extremely weak compared to him. He could kill them easily, they were extremely merely A- class beasts compared to the rest of the A class magical beasts.
'So, let's think of a reason why a dragon would be so different compared to the rest of their kind. The first reason could be that it mutated and gained the power to absorb ME and become much more powerful, an ability similar to my own trait absorption. But that doesn't seem to be what happened. He was originally energy and then turned corporeal, therefore he was pure energy before gaining a body. But at the same time, he had intelligence.
Another option could be that he was a dragon leader and he gained a unique ability from his bloodline, due to dominating the rest of the dragons.
The third option is that he gained the ability from a special material and has been rapidly absorbing other creatures' strengths. But how powerful could he be from gaining normal woodland animal strengths? He wouldn't be very powerful maybe a C class at most highly unlikely.
The fourth option is that he is a remnant of an ancient dragon that has been alive for thousands of years. Kai considered this option and thought that it was very likely.
The fifth option would be that he is an ancient dragon but was defeated and was on the brink of death but survived and has slowly been regaining his strength. That was also a very possible option.'
If Dahak could know what Kai was theorizing he would applaud him on his close guesses, but unfortunately, his theories were nothing compared to the real truth.
Kai continued to try and come up with reasons why Dahak was so powerful when it hit him he didn't know where Bob was.
Kai tried to call out to Bob using their mental link, but unfortunately, it was to no avail. Bob couldn't be found. Kai continued to call out to Bob but couldn't find him.
Eventually, he gave up on calling out to him and decided to try and sense his location using their connection. After less than a second Kai found Bob.
The large feline was inside his body! Kai examined his body but didn't find anything that would indicate that Bob was with him. He commanded his runic eyes to activate when he felt no change.
Kai continued with the command and much to his dismay and panic he had no magic energy whatsoever left in his body!

dragonfang1917 I've gotten a comment by Blood King69 saying that Kai is soft for wanting parental love. I would like to say that Kai is a psychopath and you can't judge him by common sense.
