Chapter 412: A heart?
After a long and close inspection, Jayden found that whenever his energy centre was about to explode because of the excess blue energy, the energy centre itself absorbed some energy.
“!!!”
Jayden was again stunned, it was the first time that he had seen something like this, normally the energy centre would only expand and become more sturdy when someone reaches the next stage or realm, and it is absolutely impossible for the energy centre to absorb energy at all, but right now inside his own body, his own energy centre was constantly absorbing energy and it seemed that it was becoming more sturdy every time it absorbed this new energy.
Not only that, this blue energy was filling every cell of his body, his skin, his bones, his internal organs, his nerves, his veins, every part was filled with the strange energy and none of the body parts seemed to reject or repel it.
On the contrary, it seemed that after many years of not drinking water and being extremely thirsty, they had finally been provided with a large amount of very tasty water and now they kept hungrily devouring every bit of the water they were receiving, which was obviously energy in this case.
Under his watchful eyes, Jayden saw that his organs constantly absorbed this energy and very slowly began to change, bit by bit.
” Ha… Hahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha ” Without replying to Anna’s answer, he placed a hand on his face and began to laugh out loud, throwing his head back he just kept laughing, his voice resounded in the Nether World.
After many minutes had passed, Jayden stopped laughing and with a wide smile he looked into the sky, and then said:
” I don’t feel like I’m going to explode, instead I don’t think I have ever felt this good and full, or this powerful, anyway tell me now what is that strange thing inside my body, even a little bit of info will be enough or I might explode because of my curiousness. ”
While speaking he maintained his big smile, and patiently waited for her answer, after sorting out her words, Anna spoke:
” That thing is a heart, and the restriction you are seeing around it is closely related to your locket. ”
Jayden looked down and closely observed the locket that had been around his neck, for as long as he could remember, he was aware it was a magical thing that’s why it never broke or separated from his body, but now Jayden was even more curious about it as he asked:
” A heart? What kind of heart? And why are there two hearts in my body? ”
******
” Wait, you have two hearts? How did you get them? You are not just making up stuff, right? I know I did wrong by poisoning you, but you don’t have to make a fool of me. ”
Ardino said, a look of disbelief on his face. Jayden looked at him indifferently and spoke:
” Don’t interrupt me, it is all true whether you believe it or not, anyway it was about to get to the best part, so just listen and don’t talk. ”
Ardino nodded and fell silent, but in his heart, he knew that Jayden’s time was about to end, he didn’t have too long so he stayed silent and listened attentively.
” So, the answer I got was… ”
******
For a few seconds, no reply came, then Anna began to explain:
” It’s the heart of a dragon, and the human heart was only placed in your body, since it was supposed to carry out normal operations, after all the dragon heart was just too powerful to leave in a baby’s body, at first it was planned to restrict most of your dragon heart’s abilities and only open a small passage through it so that you could slowly become familiar with it and in the future you would have been able to use it to the fullest, while the human heart will keep you alive, carrying out normal body function.
But because of some… some unforeseen events in the past, there was no choice but to lock the entirety of the dragon’s heart so that no one would be able to find you. ”
Anna paused and waited for a few seconds, Jayden was deep in thought carefully listening to each of her words, and then he nodded indicating for her to continue:
” You remember a dream you have seen when you got the Time Manipulation ability? ”
Jayden only needed to think for a second, and he instantly remembered the scene of dragons fighting, those were the strongest beings he had seen so far, even though it was only inside of a dream.
” Yeah I remember it, so is it somehow related to this heart, ah right dragons, wait then the dragon who was protecting me, what was his name… ”
Jayden paused and thought for a few seconds, and after remembering he added:
” Right Richard Draco, was he by any chance related to me? ” He asked curiously.
” Yes he was, he was your father but not yo- ” interrupting her words Jayden asked:
” My father? And what do you mean by was? Did something happen to him? ”
Anna paused and for some reason Jayden felt that she was a little sorrowful about the news she was about to share with him:
” Yes he died while he was protecting you, after sending you away, he himself stayed behind and fought many people at once, not letting even a single one to go after you, he was strong, very strong but he was still quite young, and under the joint attack of so many dragon and other species he wasn’t able to s… ”
Anna stopped at those final words and Jayden felt that she was not going to continue any further, but he didn’t mind after all he had gotten so much information about himself, he remained silent and deeply thought about all the things she had just told him, just then he wondered:
” Wait, is my surname Draco then? ” Jayden asked but got no response from Anna, so he decided to not talk about any of it now, and thought about something else:
” Goddess Damuda, is that Divine beast again going to come here? Or had it returned back to Bael, thinking that I am already dead? ” The answer from goddess Damuda came instantly, as she spoke:
” It had not left yet, and it knows that you are still not dead after all the seed of nightmares that it had placed in your head was just crushed by that strong dragon aura, so that beast knows that you aren’t dead and it is trying to break into the Kingdom again. ” She paused after those words, Jayden nodded and asked:
” So, how long is it going to take for that beast to break that defensive line again? ”
His voice was filled with rage, he couldn’t forget the helplessness he felt when attacked by that strong spatial attack, all his abilities became useless and he had almost died, even Wang Jia might have died.
” It won’t be so easy this time for that stupid beast to enter. ” Goddess Damuda said.
