Chapter 141 Mag'ladroth's Solution

"Ugh.. My head," A teenager held his head as he moaned in pain, slowly opening his eyes he looked forward and saw a slender man sitting opposite him. The man had a darker skin color and wore a white shirt with a black coat. This color combination suited the man very well while the amiable smile on the man's face made him seem very approachable.

Adjusting his greyish black tie, the man smiled lightly as he spoke, "Welcome back to the realm of the living, Ray Xanders,"

Listening to this, Ray panicked. His heart beat faster while his pupils dilated, looking sideways in worry, all Ray saw was a vast plane that stretched to infinity.

Within such a large plane, two people sat in silence as they looked at each other. Of the two, one was smiling and seemed very welcoming while the other seemed troubled.

The troubled one was none other than Ray, who at this moment couldn't make heads or tails of the situation he was in.

"Wasn't I fighting against the goblins in that dungeon, then how come I am here and who is this man?" Ray thought in confusion, his mind nothing less of a mess as he couldn't understand or remember anything.

All he remembered was the feeling of carnage before killing those goblins and a slight voice whispering into his ear to continue slaughtering them all.

Ray scratched his head as he asked, "Uhm… Do you know how I got here? And also, who are you and where am I?"

"Bahahaha!! So you don't remember anything, do you?" The slender man laughed as he spoke,

"Well, I guess I scared you a bit since your memories haven't returned yet. Don't worry, it was only a concussion and you will remember everything after taking a sip," The man said as he snapped his fingers.

Doing so, a table appeared in between them with a cup of tea placed on top of it. Motioning Ray to pick it up, the man spoke,

"Don't hesitate, it's not poison. Rather, it will help you remember everything," The man said and waited for Ray to pick up the cup and drink from it.

On the other hand, Ray was put in a difficult position as he didn't know what to do. If he should trust the man or not. Ray thought about it for a while and muttered,

"I am at his mercy anyways, so might as well trust him," Muttering this, Ray gulped and picked up the cup and he took a sip.

"Slurppp"

Taking a sip, the warm liquid traveled down his throat as he felt a refreshing sensation take over his body.

"Guess he didn't lie," Ray thought,

"Arghhhhhhh!!!"

However, just as Ray thought of that, he screamed in pain as he felt his head splitting. He felt as if thousands of needles were working together and focusing on a single point of his head and trying to crack it open.

Holding his head in anguish, Ray screamed at the top of his lungs as strange memories started coming to his mind. The memories were of him, meeting a great dragon, talking about some bloodline, and then participating in a test to prove his worthiness.

However, the most traumatizing memory wasn't that, but it was of him doing everything he can but still being thrown like a ragdoll by the Void Beast and being at its mercy for most of the time.

After a while, the pain subsided while Ray's memory had fully recovered. Holding his head with one hand, Ray lifted his head as he looked at the man in front of him and spoke,

"Well, from what I remember, I have failed to prove my worthiness for your bloodline since I wasn't able to complete the trial. Therefore, please do me one last favor and send me back. My friends would be waiting for me," Ray said, his voice calm as he awaited the Void Dragon's answer.

"Nope, I am not sending you back. Not right now that is," Mag'ladroth denied, shaking his head; he continued, "Before you think of anything else. Let me make it clear to you, I have not discarded you for being unworthy of my bloodline. Rather, I am very pleased by your performance during the trial, not to mention your ability and skill to use the bloodline energy to such an extent, that too without the help of a mentor. However, the trial is there for a reason too and since you didn't pass it, I can't give you control over the bloodline. Therefore, I have decided to slowly hand you control over it as you get stronger," The Void Dragon answered, its voice calm as it explained everything from the start and even told Ray about its opinion.

Listening to the Void Beast, Ray took some time to process the information and asked,

"So you are saying that I haven't gained full authority to use the bloodline as of yet and I will gain control over it as I get stronger? But how will you judge me when I get stronger? Also, how will you know if I get stronger and how much stronger I have gotten to have the ability," Ray asked while scratching his chin as a thoughtful glint passed through his eyes.

However, Ray didn't speak anything and remained silent as he waited for Mag'ladroth to speak.

"Good question. You see, the answer to your question is simple. I will simply stay in your consciousness until you have complete control over my bloodline," Mag'ladroth said proudly.

Listening to the dragon's proud voice, Ray even imagined a large Void Dragon puffing its chest fully and only destroying the surrounding area due to its sheer size.

Getting rid of those distracting thoughts, Ray got to the point where he asked,

"You know, I have no issue with you being in my consciousness but there are two issues.

One, how are you going to be in my consciousness, your consciousness surpasses mine by a thousand times, not to mention your consciousness being way more powerful than mine.

Second, I already have someone living in my consciousness and I won't let her leave my consciousness for even a single second.

Therefore, its for you to come up with a solution for both of these problems,"

Ray said as he laid down the issues and waited for the dragon to find a solution. In the meanwhile, he casually sipped tea while observing his calm and serene surroundings.

"I have got it… I have found a way," Mag'ladroth suddenly said, his voice enthusiastic as he continued, " I have found a way to solve both issues without anything getting disturbed,"

"Really, then do share your idea with me and if it's good then it's a deal that you would stay in my consciousness until I can completely control the Void Dragon part of my bloodline,"  Ray answered as he placed his cup down and eagerly waited for Mag'ladroth to tell his solution.

"Okay, so the answer to the problem is very simple. First of all, the issue of my consciousness is very big and more powerful than yours to the point that it would overwhelm your consciousness. So the solution is simple, I will only let a small part of my consciousness stay in yours, and then I could monitor you using that small part of my consciousness and also help you accordingly," Mag'ladroth answered with enthusiasm as he patted his chest proudly. It seemed as if he was saying,

"Yeah, I know I am great,"

Ray merely rolled his eyes at his actions but was rather pleased with his answer as he asked,

"Okay, we could do that but what about the other issue?"

"Yeah, leave that to me, I will talk to Aurora, I am sure she will have no issues with me putting a small part of my consciousness there, and don't worry, your consciousness wouldn't be overwhelmed or overcrowded," Mag'ladroth answered smugly and that too with full confidence as he somewhat convinced Ray.

"Okay, you could have a try but be fast; I have my teammates awaiting my return. I can't disappoint any one of them," Ray agreed as he sipped his tea while Mag'ladroth stood up and prepared to make them both exit his consciousness.
