The dragon started to panic really bad, he is already thinking of ending his life right now from fear, he still remembers what his parents told him and the existence inside the cave.

It was their bloodline's honor and curse at the same time, they are to guard this cave till a being capable enough to defeat them arrives or stay here for all eternity till they die.

Now that a little human with no power has outsmarted him and entered the cave without defeating him, the dragon only hoped that he would die a painless death, he has heard the horrors about the existence that lives inside the cave.

A demon, so powerful that even the gods don't dare look it in the eye, the legends told that this demon tore a dragon king into two with its bare hands, just imagining his massive body being torn apart by this existence made the dragon want to kill itself but it couldn't.

It has to stay here until the existence itself grant it permission to do anything

As Zio walked into the cave he noticed that the inside is very different from what he imagined, it is neither warm nor cold in here, he could see a thin stream of water flowing into the cracks near the edges, he also noticed some glowing stones stuck on the walls of the cave.

Zio didn't expect a cave to be in such a condition, be could live here for years without stepping out, there are water and plants that can be used as a food source.

Zio decided to ignore everything and move forward to what he came for, he is excited to see this legendary weapon that has been written in that book.

As he moved deep into the cave it started to get warm and the air around the area felt quite dense, Zio took a deep breath as he felt the changes in the surrounding, he didn't felt any danger, it was just that the atmosphere felt very heavy, it was as if something is grabbing him from the shoulder and trying to push him down.

"How long has it been?"

Zio suddenly heard a voice that scared him, if the dragon's voice was overbearing, this voice was on the next level, one would shit their pants if the voice sounded a little harsh.

Zio turned his head quickly, scanning the area to find the source of the voice, he realized that it is coming from the deeper parts of the cave, Zio got a little nervous as his heart started to beat faster.

As he walked further down the cave he noticed a light at the end of the tunnel, he rushed towards the tunnel and walked to the other side to see something he could have never imagined.

He saw a vast expanse with orange sky and a massive mountain, it was Mount Asura itself, Zio got confused, why is he seeing Mount Asura if he is in Mount Asura.

He noticed that this Mount Asura is a little different, like the one he is on, it didn't have two different parts, it was just one big mountain with snow covering the top, suddenly the orange sky started to turn yellow, it seemed like the sun is rising behind the mountain.

But Zio quickly noticed that it is not a sun but hands, two hands appeared right next to each other but it was not over, soon other hands came out, Zio noticed that these hands are massive, even bigger than Mount Asura.

In fact, Mount Asura can easily fit in the palm of one of these hands, Zio then noticed the head of a black crown rising from the top of Mount Asura, soon the whole crown was in front of Zio, along with it more hands.

Two more hands appeared and grabbed onto the top of Mount Asura as if something is trying to get up from the depths, everything started to shake because of the force the hands put on Mount Asura.

As the ground beneath his feet shook Zio lost balance and fell on his butt while he still looked at the phenomenon in front of him with wide eyes.

He is not scared but fascinated, he finally saw the face who had these hands, Zio saw a pair of eyes on a face which is slowly rising, but right below these eyes were another pair of eyes, this beating has four eyes.

These eyes have golden pupils and they looked right at Zio, soon the whole face was visible, this being is clearly a demon, it has four eyes, and sharp fangs inside its mouth, there also seem to be buts on this beings cheekbones but they didn't look like flesh wounds.

Zio could see little amount of light seeping out of them, the two hands which held on to the Mount Asura pushed it down easily crushing them into pieces.

This being slowly rose to its feet and Zio was finally able to see the demon as a whole, it stood so big that its head went over the sky reaching the space outside the planet.

It wore black armor and a black crown, it had four arms attached to its body while eight separate arms were forming an arc behind it, each of these arms was holding different kinds of swords.

This was the grandest thing Zio has ever seen in his life, this being that made the world around it tremble in fear made Zio feel something that he never felt, the hunger for power, to become as strong as this being.

"I am surprised that Valt's bloodline is still being past down"

The demon said with a smile on his face.
