Dragons had always placed all other species beneath them and therefore tried as much as not to rely on them. In the past when the discovery of beast core was made along with that, many other inventions came to light.
Beast cores were more potent source of mana than mana crystal which naturally formed in the place rich of mana. At that time it was discovered that with the help of beast core weapons can also be made with some of the beast ability intact, which was the great boost in power of Dragon.
But the noble dragons disliked the weapon made by beast core, it was disgusting for them even to hold such weapons in their hands and therefore a new method of weapon forging was invented and such weapon were termed as draconic weapons.
In this method instead of using the beast core the dragon heart was used as the main source of power. The higher the realm of dragon heart the powerful the weapon.
The dragon heart was basically a hard stone like object in the body of every dragon, it was the primary source of huge mana supply which dragons required and also stored their abilities.
Draconic weapons were also symbol of power and nobility which could only be possessed by Dragon king or dragons above that realm.
I too had tons of Draconic weapon as well as beast weapons, making weapon and discovering their abilities was one of my hobby in the past but I wasn't able to use them. My ability was incompatible with every weapon I came across; they would just break after one or two use.
"As I have informed everyone before, we don't know what we might face in the 100th floor therefore, it is better to bring with us as much power as we can and that is why we will be taking our Draconic weapons with us." King said waving his hand, there was a tattoo of fierce looking dragon head on back of his hand from where a majestic sword materialized.
The current weapon held in the hand of King Azmath was made out of dragon heart of 2nd king of dragon realm his name was King Maxwell the berserk.
He was more power hungry then king Azmath if I have to believe on rumors. Therefore Azmath killed his own father to ascend to the throne in the pretext of sacrificing his family for betterment of Dragon realm.
There was not much known about the first dragon king but what I had heard his fate was same as 2nd king.
The sword held by king in his hands was radiating otherworldly energy, it was definitely the most brilliant weapon I had seen because this alone could give king the 100% power boost. The weapon held in king hands was fully compatible with his abilities because it was made from his own father's dragon heart, who was also a primordial dragon like him.
Sometimes I was curious about what happened to the 1st king because there was no draconic weapon made out of his dragon heart, he was also rumored to have reached the Dragon god realm like my father but nobody knew about him much even king himself as if everything about him was erased from history.
Seeing that king was showing off his draconic weapons other leaders took out their weapon as well but their weapons were just bunch of dead relics in front of kings weapon which was releasing ferocious aura and even space around him was trembling.
"I am more curious about, what preparation our great guardian Alex has made for the raid, if he would like to share his thoughts with us." 2nd leader asked me putting up a fake smile just as always.
He was a venomous bastard who had the ability to control poison and mastermind in most of the king's plans.
"It wouldn't be fun if I reveal everything but it will definitely shock you." I said replying to his fake smile with mine.
After some more discussion regarding raid we were about to finish the meeting when I asked king the question which was in my mind from a long time.
"I would like to ask his majesty something if he permits" I asked.
"Yes, you may ask." King permitted.
"I would like to ask your majesty, what will be your goal after you have released the seal, will you once again wage war against other races and make them submit to you or this time you wishes to cooperate with them?" I asked.
"I will give them chance to submit to me or prove their strength if they wishes to earn my cooperation, but let me ask you Alex do you wish to align yourself with other races and betray dragon race like how your father did." He asked me another question.
"Your father may think he has freed them from our rule and they can prosper without our help but he has just fed them a slow poison which may help them advance for few year and offer peace but they can't stand against demons, do you intend to bear the responsibility of whole race, you can't even fulfill your own duties." King said in a ridiculed tone.
"You are right your majesty, I am no saint like my father, he has not done anything for me and I have no obligation to carry on his task, I will just do whatever I want." I said making my goal clear.
"Oh so as long as we don't do anything to get in your way you won't move against us but you to know that we can't leave a variable like you unattended." King spoke finally letting his true intentions known to me.
"Yes you are right; we can't leave any variable unattended if we want things to work out our way." I spoke agreeing to his words.
After some more chats in the pretext of meeting and getting familiar with the intention of king I knew he won't leave other races alone, I never felt any responsibility towards other races, but I will be helping them indirectly after I have killed the king and his leaders.
If everything goes right I don't see any reason to fight with other races in the rule of Eva.
