Chapter 21 - Chapter 21 - Whispers Of Temptation

Two months later…

Mandarin empire, group of mountains…

 Mount Everest, top…

 Cave of the Kings…

In Arthur's conscience...

- Arthur Treadway (emerging from a sea of ​​memories and knowledge. Shirtless, traveling through the memories within the Essence of Light): Hmmm, I know everything now. But one question remains. Who am I…? (looking to one of Pendragon's memories)

- Emperor king Pendragon (in a golden armor, looking at Arthur with a soft smile on his face): That is the real question my son, who are we?

- Arthur Treadway (looks at Pendragon with his face demonstrating an expression of confusion): I am not Arthur anymore. Arthur is just an aspect of me. I am being reborn...

- Emperor King Pendragon (laughing): Of course. You are transforming into a new creature. You will not be a herald, you will be the Absolute Titan, the primordial being. You will be greater than all who have used the King's Force someday, you are the Ultimate Dragon Lord, go save them my son.

- Arthur Treadway (approaches): Wait, I want to… (wakes up)

An explosion happens at the top of Mount Everest...

- Arthur Treadway (wakes up amidst the explosion): This noise! How uncomfortable... (shirtless, extends his hand and suppresses the explosion using Qi, and absorbs it with supernatural calm)

- Alfred (in Arthur's mind) "Good morning boss, welcome back. The user has undergone body reconstruction. The user has a new core, a Celestial core that is in the sixth dimension, the Celestial dimension, and the Essence of Light is within the user, providing Celestial Qi in the form of golden fire. Boss you are now the King of the Titans."

- Butler (looks at the shirtless young man, kneels): Ultimate Dragon Lord! The true successor!

- Arthur Treadway (walking, yawns) "Celestial dimension...": Get up, old man! Kneel only before the Light... (turns, sees a man in a portal): Drasil, what do you want?

- Arthur Treadway (with golden shining eyes, looking at the man): Rest assured, I will take care of her.

- Arthur Treadway (closes the portal, sighs): Butler, find me new clothes, these ones are tight. And you are going on a reconnaissance mission...

- Butler (squats excitedly): As you wish, my king.

Days later…

 Mountain chain, Himalayan Village….

 Caravan of love…

- A woman (in the caravan with revealing clothes, closes the stage curtains and looks out only to see a man staring at her)

- The man (in a kimono, bright golden eyes, staring at the woman)

- The woman (closing the curtain with a smile): Now only VIP customers, come back tomorrow honey… (closes)

Inside the caravan…

- Men and women (having fun, drinking, dancing and having sex)

A time ago…

 In the Himalayan village, Mr. Han's tavern…

- A young man (looks out the window, sees a caravan, curious): What is that?

- Madam Han (sitting in front of him, looks back and sees the caravan through the window, sighs)

- Mr. Han (goes to the table, puts his hand on the young man's head): Son, stay away from that caravan! Stay the hell away from those women!

- The young man (suspicious, looking at the two): But why?

- Mrs. Han (looking at the young man): They are whores. Their shows are basically erotic songs and dances, to get the attention of men, to make money. And their leader claims to be the goddess of love, she claims to be thousands of years old, this leader is apparently the most beautiful of them. They sleep with political leaders, high-ranking soldiers to have riches and fame, rumors spread that they kill people as well, so stay away!

- The young man (looks at them, smiling): Okay, I will…

Minutes later... 

 In the square...

- The young man (leaves the restaurant, looking at the caravan from afar) "I could teach them a lesson..."

- Someone (speaking with the young man) "I don't advise it, according to the information provided by Mr. Han, there are a lot of them, and the boss's core is sealed. You will certainly be defeated in a direct confrontation."

- The young man (sighs) "You're right." (turns towards his house, sees a woman with pink hair and red eyes, revealing clothes, standing in front of him, shivers in fright): What... (clears his throat): Excuse me... (tries to avoid her, but she follows him) "If I had Qi, I would know that she was behind me!": Any problem?

- Mysterious woman 1 (looking at the young man from top to bottom, biting her lower lip, puts her hand on her hip): You're very cute. I can see you're not from here, you're not mandarin. Come to our show today, I have a surprise just for you...

- The young man (with a stoic face, staring into the woman's eyes) "There's something strange about her, it's as if her aura were a magnet, is she making me desire her…? Is this some kind of enchantment?": Excuse me... (dodges, walks away. Takes a deep breath) "There are powerful beings on this world..."

- Yue Lao (sees the young man leaving, smiles) "He didn't even look at me properly. That boy! No one has ever resisted me, but that boy... I want him!": You are interesting, Yuwen…

Present…

 In the Caravan…

- The man (enters the caravan, looks around)

- Yue Lao (in a red dress, pink hair, and red reptilian eyes. In front of the man) "I knew it, my charms never fail!": Do you like what you see?

- The man (looks at the woman) "You..."

- Yue Lao (smiles) "This boy has something special, I just don't understand yet...": I see you remembered the invitation I made. I am Yue Lao, goddess of love, and I will attend you personally, now let's go... "I see, I'll just absorb his lifeforce and take whatever specialty he has..." (covers her smile)

Somewhere on the coast of the continent Eurus…

 On an island, a mansion…

 Balcony…

- A man (with his hands behind him, looking at the sky): Strange, the clouds have disappeared, but the strangest thing is, I feel an energy very similar to mine coming from the continent... (murmurs, feeling a familiar energy emanating from the mainland)

- A woman (behind the man): Do you want to visit your brother?

- The man (turns around, with veins on his face): He will come to me!

- The woman (afraid, sighs): Right, Lord Dracula...

- The man (looking at the woman): Cyria, do you want to visit your mother?

 

Asu Continent, Menevere kingdom…

 Toq, Tristan's base…

 Tristan's office…

- Tristan Ashura (annoyed, gets up): Gertrude! You're not taking my men to a cave to fight giants and monsters!

- Gertrude (puts her hands on her hips): Yes, I will! It's our chance, don't you see?!

- Tristan (annoyed, passes his hand over his face): And can't you see that it's dangerous?! They are giants that eat flesh and drink blood! Need to hear something more? I heard from the other captains that they've seen some giants that reach 30 meters, do you want to risk everything?!

- Gertrude (arms crossed, squeaks): That's a lie until I see it with my own eyes! I've seen giants before, and they are not that tall...

- Tristan (with veins on his face): NO! NO MAN LEAVES THIS BASE!! WANT TO GO?? GO ALONE! (throws a chair against the wall)

- Gertrude (with her hands on her hips, sighs): Right, captain... You want to be remembered as the captain that left his woman alone in the battlefield? (walking towards the door)

- Tristan Ashura (blushes): WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?! YOU WISH YOU WERE MY WOMAN! 

Asu Continent, Jianghu kingdom…

 Sehal, in a valley…

- Princess Hera Olympus (with an armor, a sword in hand, facing a giant with her eyes full of surprise): What?! He appears to be 10 meters long…

- Arwen (in armor, seeing Hera cornered. Bathed in tears tries to help): Captain!!!

- Darlan (in armor, grabs Arwen's arm, sighs): Soldier, pull yourself together! The captain sacrificed herself to save us, now let's go!

- Luana (crying, while looking at Hera): Captain…

- Princess Hera (surrounded by giants, looks at Luana, smiles): Okay, it was good to fight alongside you. (with two swords, looking at the giants) "The others I can defeat, but the one in front of me…": What are you waiting for, girls? Aren't we going to fight?

- The 4 giants (with veins of irritation on their faces, advance): Disappear!

Everything was complicated, Arthur was missing, and Hera was in danger...

- Mr. A (looking at the kids): Now it's time to go home…!

- The four (with their mouths open): What?!

- Mr. A (smiling): What is it?

- Christian Chamberlain (looking at Mr. A., gets up): Old man, are you going to send us home like this?!

- Drake Grey (curious, looking fixedly at Mr. A): Is Hera going to die?!

- Havanna Thundergaze (curious, looking fixedly at Mr. A): Tell me!

- The four (making noise): Tell! Tell! Tell!

- Mr. A (crosses his arms, turns his face away): If you continue to throw a tantrum, I'll never tell the story again…

- Drake Grey (gets up): Calm down Mr. A., let's not make hasty decisions.

- Mr. A (sighs): Now go home. Get going!

- The four (leaving with their heads down)

- Kim Yukimura (with his head down): It was so good, listening to the story and eating some sweets…

- Christian Chamberlain (annoyed, with his hands in his pockets): Tomorrow I'm here at 5 am, you better be ready old man... (with veins on his face)

- The four (walking away): Goodbye Mr. A… (wave)
