"That's a good question." The level 112 Dragon shook his head, moving his magnificent neck. "Either they died or they switched sides.

We do not know how many True Celestials there are, nor how to stop their actions against us. Perhaps there is no way to stop them.

Perhaps when they reach the Upper Realm, these Celestials will realize they can only join the enemies. We can't tell, because none of them returned after their allies fled after attacking the Upper Realm.

Since they can't be destroyed, the Celestials of the universe see the representatives of the True Celestials as their real enemies, the only way to harm the enemy in any way. Whatever the goal of the True Celestials, they seem to need these minions to make their plans for the universe work. Thwarting them is the best way to get revenge."

"So that's it." Minos understood why the seraphim were hated, and why he should be more careful.

"Sigh! The Upper Realm is a mystery. Perhaps the reality of that place differs from what we imagine, but until they get there, the Celestials of the universe are truly hostile to anyone directly or indirectly connected to the True Celestials," said the gray dragon.

"Are there any such Celestials that you know of?" Minos asked with concern for both his Incorruptible Heart and his seraphim's wings.

"No, such beings are rare and hard to find. There are none in our world, if that's what you want to know," said the level 114 dragon.

"Why are you helping me with this? I'm grateful, but I can't ignore it." Minos was honest with both of them.

"As I said, it's because of what you have in your body," the old Dragon said with a sigh. "Where are you from, young man? That aura I sensed from you is ancient and different from normal. Did you inherit it in your home world or in a place you passed through?"

The other Dragon elaborated, saying, "Dragons were among the earliest intelligent beings with the ability to nurture and develop. This is why certain ancestral beings ventured across the cosmos, carrying our bloodline to the utmost corners. Some of these connections have been severed completely, while others remain intact even now."

"I come from a low-level world formed by the end of a larger, more powerful planet. I found traces of that ancient dragon in my world." Minos did not hide the truth.

"So that's how it was... A world destroyed. Probably a feat of the Seraphim or the Thrones," the elder murmured as he motioned for Minos and the other Dragon to accompany him.

They took off, heading for the place where Minos was to be taken. In mid-flight, he continued to speak. "Sometimes, when an ancient world does not bear the fruit they expect, they cause disasters to create opportunities."

"Opportunities? That sounds risky," Minos commented in surprise. "Destroying a powerful world would risk completely wiping out the chances of anything good coming out of it."

"They're fanatics, and they don't care," the level 112 dragon clenched his claws and spoke between his teeth.

"That's a drastic attitude. But the chaos of destruction always brings opportunity. For a stagnant world, it can be the end of most living things, but it can also be a new beginning, something that can take you further.

I admit, however, that this is very difficult to achieve," the old gray man said, aware of the ways of Seraphim and Thrones.

"Anyway, don't worry about that now. The important thing is for you to know that the Dragon who gave you this inheritance, which you absorbed into your little world, was a relative of our race. Because of him, you are welcome to stay in our world as long as you like, young man."

"My name is Minos, by the way."

"Hmm, welcome to Draconia Magma, Minos. I'm going to take you to a place to awaken the blessing that the Dragon's soul fragment left in your body. This will awaken the powers associated with our lineage within you, perhaps helping you to become stronger and less like the seraphim," the old dragon explained while Minos looked around.

Minos didn't find it strange to be given such a chance. Dragons were extremely proud of their lineage, the kind that would definitely try to protect their heritage.

However, the fact that he was young and talented played a decisive role. He didn't know if the current situation would be the same if he wasn't so distinguished.

Would those Dragons still be interested in helping him if he wasn't about to become a high-ranking Sovereign at only about a thousand years old?

Given his powers, which made his aura as strong as that of a high-level Sovereign while he was only a mid-level Sovereign, and his majestic seraphim's wings, his future looked glorious. As long as he survived the calamities that could befall those connected to the seraphim, he would definitely be a powerful 12th stage expert in the future.

Even powerful dragons couldn't underestimate someone with such potential, another reason Minos was so well received by these elders.

"I hope to repay this opportunity in the future, Elder. Even though I've received an award from the seraphim, it doesn't mean that I'm loyal or allied with them. The seraphim protected my world, and I found their legacy. I helped them recover the remains of their companions and was given an award. Now I will go about my business."

The two Dragons nodded at him without saying anything relevant.

"What is your goal now, little Minos?" The stronger Dragon asked.

"To explore the universe, to seek the 12th stage, I would say. I'm not like those who want to fight True Celestials, or whatever they call themselves. My goal is just to get stronger, protect my people, and see what's good in this universe. If there's something for me after that, fine. Otherwise, I'm sure I can live a long time before my life is over." Minos replied with the sincerity of someone ready to die.

That wasn't his plan, but he wasn't lying.

But without something like the Incorruptible Heart, neither of them could tell what was true and what was not in his lines.

"Well, the feeling of the Dragons is in your heart. Despite everything, you live like a true expert of the race, Minos."

The two beings liked Minos' answer. In their opinion, everyone had to be ambitious and try to grow, but they should always be prepared that their life could end at any moment!
