The battlefield froze.
For the first time since the war began, even the dragons stopped attacking.
Because a second portal had opened in the sky.
But this one was different.
It wasn't dark like the Abyss gate.
It glowed with ancient golden light.
Kai Draven looked up slowly.
"…Okay."
"That one definitely looks expensive."
Lyra grabbed his arm.
"Kai… that portal…"
Kai glanced at her.
"Yeah?"
Lyra swallowed.
"That is not from the human world."
Kai sighed.
"Let me guess."
Lyra nodded slowly.
"That is a gate from the Dragon Realm."
The system flashed instantly.
[Ancient Dragon Energy Detected]
Kai raised an eyebrow.
"Oh?"
Another alert appeared.
[Royal Dragon Presence Approaching]
Kai blinked.
"Royal?"
Above them, the **Celestial Dragon** lowered its head slightly.
Even the mighty creature looked serious.
The Dragon Emperor stopped fighting.
Drakar circled lower beside Kai.
Every dragon in the sky had turned toward the golden portal.
Then—
The light exploded.
BOOOOOOM.
Golden energy burst outward like a sunrise.
A massive figure slowly stepped through the portal.
At first Kai only saw wings.
Huge golden wings.
Elegant but terrifying.
Then the creature fully emerged.
It was a dragon.
But unlike the others.
Its scales shimmered like molten gold.
Its eyes burned with ancient intelligence.
And above its head floated a crown made of pure dragon flame.
Lyra whispered in shock.
"That's impossible…"
Kai tilted his head.
"What?"
Lyra pointed upward.
"That… is the Dragon Realm Queen."
Kai stared for a second.
"…The queen?"
The dragon's wings spread across the sky.
Golden flames drifted around her like falling stars.
Even the Celestial Dragon bowed its head slightly.
Kai whistled.
"Well."
"That's a strong introduction."
The Dragon Queen slowly turned her head.
Her glowing eyes scanned the battlefield.
First the dragons.
Then the Abyss army.
Finally…
Her gaze landed on Kai.
Kai sighed.
"Of course."
"Everyone looks at me first."
The Queen's voice echoed through the sky.
Not loud.
But powerful enough to silence the battlefield.
"So you are the one who awakened the Sovereign bloodline."
Kai pointed at himself.
"Yes."
"Apparently that's me."
The Abyss King suddenly roared.
Dark energy exploded around its body.
"So the Dragon Realm finally sends its ruler."
The Dragon Queen turned slowly.
Her golden eyes burned with cold authority.
"This world will not fall to the Abyss."
The Abyss King laughed.
A deep terrifying sound shook the battlefield.
"You dragons always think you can stop the inevitable."
Behind him, more abyss monsters poured out of the portal.
The sky darkened further.
Kai rubbed his forehead.
"Why does everyone bring friends to these fights?"
The system suddenly flashed again.
[Dragon Sovereign Authority Expanding]
Kai blinked.
"Oh?"
Another message appeared.
[Dragon Realm Recognizes Sovereign Heir]
Kai read the screen twice.
"…Wait."
He looked up at the Queen.
"You recognized me?"
The Queen's voice echoed calmly.
"The blood of the First Dragon flows within you."
Kai smirked.
"Good to know someone here likes me."
The Abyss King raised both arms.
Dark lightning filled the sky.
"This war ends today."
The ground began collapsing again.
The portal behind the king expanded violently.
Lyra's face went pale.
"Kai… the Abyss King is opening another rift."
Kai nodded slowly.
"Yeah."
"That's definitely not good."
The Dragon Queen raised her wings.
Golden energy erupted across the sky.
The Celestial Dragon moved beside her.
The Dragon Emperor roared behind Kai.
The entire dragon army gathered together.
Kai cracked his knuckles.
"Well…"
"Looks like the boss fight just got upgraded."
The Dragon Queen suddenly looked down at Kai.
"Sovereign heir."
Kai looked up.
"What?"
Her eyes glowed brighter.
"The time has come."
Kai frowned.
"For what?"
The system exploded with light.
[Dragon Sovereign Awakening: 80%]
Kai blinked.
"Oh."
"That sounds important."
Golden dragon fire erupted around his body.
The shadow of the **First Dragon** expanded across the battlefield.
For the first time…
Even the Abyss King looked cautious.
Kai smiled slowly.
"Well…"
"Now things are getting interesting."
But at that exact moment—
The dimensional gate behind the Abyss King shattered violently.
CRAAAAACK.
Something even larger began forcing its way through.
The Abyss King turned around.
And for the first time…
The ruler of the Abyss looked shocked.
Lyra whispered in fear.
"Kai…"
Kai sighed.
"…Please don't tell me that's something worse."
Because whatever was emerging from the gate…
…was powerful enough to scare even the **Abyss King**.
What terrifying creature is coming from the Abyss rift?
Why did the Dragon Queen arrive personally?
And what will happen when Kai reaches 100% Dragon Sovereign awakening?
What will happen next?
