The dragon changed, reborn into a new form—a humanlike shape. Its face was now more human than dragon, with blue scales partially covering most of its body. It had blue wings that matched its scales and two horns jutting from the sides of its head.
"Wow, who knew you could look so handsome as a human?" Hazel teased the dragon.
"So, what do you call yourself?" Hazel asked.
The dragon knelt and bowed. "I am called Emblem," it said submissively.
"Wait, Emblem? Doesn't that mean 'mimic'?" Hazel asked, curious.
"Yes, my lord," Emblem replied.
"Why are you called that?" Hazel inquired.
"It's because I was born a dragon who can copy the abilities of any other dragon," Emblem explained. "But when I was born, I was seen as a mistake and sealed away. Then a god came to save me and said he had a job for me."
Such a unique dragon, Hazel thought to himself. If he hadn't been sealed away, he might have become the king of dragons. Maybe I can help him achieve that.
I literally have a dragon capable of becoming the dragon king as my servant! Hazel thought, letting out a menacing laugh.
"Anyway, what's behind that golden door?" Hazel asked.
"I don't know," the dragon replied.
"But you protect it from the world," Hazel pointed out.
"Yes, but I don't know what's inside. I was only told to guard it," Emblem explained.
"Okay then, let's find out," Hazel said, heading towards the door with Emblem.
When they reached the door, Hazel simply pushed it open. Inside, there was nothing but a small pillar that seemed to hold something.
As Hazel got closer, he saw a golden eye floating above the pillar, as if placed there. This appeared to be what Emblem was tasked with protecting.
"I'm guessing you don't know what the eye does, do you?" Hazel asked Emblem.
"No, I don't, sorry," Emblem replied.
"Well, that was expected," Hazel said, staring at the eye from a distance.
"Let's find out then," Hazel declared, approaching the eye.
As Hazel got closer to the eye, nothing happened, not even a reaction from his system. So Hazel went ahead and touched it. The moment he held it in his hand, the system activated.
[You have the Eye of the Forbidden in your hands! The eye is now merging with your soul!]
[The Forbidden Eye grants the ability to see 'end spoilers,' like the worst possible outcomes! And other hidden things that no normal eyes can see]
After this message, Hazel was lifted into the air as the eye merged with his soul.
Hazel felt intense pain during this process, groaning aloud.
[Your body is receiving a part of a divine god!]
[All impurities in your body have been cleansed!]
[You are now completely immune to diseases and poison!]
[You now possess holy energy!]
[Your holy energy has been cleansed from the touch of the gods!]
[You now possess your own unique holy energy!]
Hazel finally got back to the real world while having Emblem put into is shadow through Shadow's skill.
"I guess going to the dungeon was worth it", Hazel said as he walked away from the dungeon's
gate.
"I am really curious about this holy energy though, how do I use it, and how can it be of any help in battle", Hazel asked himself in thoughts.
"I winder if it literally makes me a god", Hazel questioned in his mind as he walked.
As he crossed the street before him, there was a sudden and unexpected sound.
"Zzzz", a sound loud enough to alert everyone in the forbidden god domain, shaking everything in it.
Before any reaction from the people, a notification appeared before them through their system window.
[Players get ready, the time as finally come]
[All players are to get ready within a time period of 5 minutes, after that you will all be transported to where the rest of the information will be given]
