49 Dragon Heart's Aftereffects

( 2 out of 2 chapters this week)

"What was it?"

*Sigh*

"Some troublemakers are trying to do more than I asked," Azazel said with a tired sigh. Sometimes having too much charisma can be a bad thing.

"I see… it was that bad?" The silver-haired teen asked with a bored tone.

"In a way. On a better note, I have met your rival."

"Oh? Is he…strong?"

Boredom all gone, the atmosphere changed in the whole room into barely hidden excitement from the silver-haired teen who was dressed like some punk.

"I can't say anything about his strength. But what can I tell you about him is that he is a hunter, a predator. Even when he was speaking with me he looked for my weak points and meant to kill me as quickly as possible." Azazel quite seriously explained to his adopted son.

"... I see… this is quite… intriguing? How can someone become like that? In what kind of environment did he grow up?" The Red Dragon Emperor asked with a fascinated tone.

Moments later with a burst of red energy, a red gauntlet appeared on the teen's left hand.

"It appears White One found a competent host," Ddraig said with quite an excited tone.

"He is. Albion's host is talented in lightning magic. I suggest don't rush to fight him without figuring out that you have the upper hand. Because there is a big chance he will try to kill you."

*Snort*

"I know. I am not a child who needs to be told about such things." The silver-haired teen said with a snort as he started to think about how to meet his fated rival.

"I would prefer if we, and I mean you and I remain on friendly terms with him. At least until the three factions end their conflicts."

"I can't promise such a thing. But what I can promise is to try not to end up fighting him this soon."

Azazel rolled his eyes a bit hearing that.

'Teenagers. How come White Dragon Emperor was much more controlled when he found out that I know about Boosted Gear's host?' The Leader of Crows remembers how much tamer was Albion's host.

'Maybe…maybe a different point of interest? Not caring about the rivalry anymore? Possibly… I need to find more on that!' The Head Crow was curious about this development. The White Dragon Emperor is not obsessed with facing the Red Dragon Emperor.

He even went out of his way to deal with the issue without killing a large amount of Grigori people.

"Good, after all, I owe him a favour."

"That's on you Azazel." The Silver-haired teen said with a smirk.

The Leader of the Fallen simply sighed. Yes, it was on him. Now he needs to find out who messed with his orders. Who wants to start, or more like restart the Great War?

"Yes, it appears it is on me Vali, I have a few things to do," Azazel said while having a thoughtful look.

He needs to figured out why his fallen acted like that in Devil territory, something major could be brewing without his notice.

~~~~~~Back With Alex~~~~~~~

Alex was walking home slowly. He was feeling much better after all that small fighting. Now he knows how to adjust to his new Dragon Heart.

His spending quite a bit of time in the Dungeon will allow him to properly adjust to the changes.

As the White Dragon Emperor returned to his house he walked to the living room and saw his lovely girlfriend sitting in her favourite position while wrapping herself in a blanket, reading while the TV was on in the background.

The black-haired teen sneaked up and dropped onto the couch next to her. At that moment she slightly positions herself to lean on him

At that moment her nose furrowed for a bit.

"You fought, how was it?" She asked curiously, as she could sense static all over him. It was much more potent than before, it appears the Dragon Heart already gave him more depth to his Lightning potency.

It will be interesting to watch how her boyfriend will develop with this whole dragon affair.

"I took care of the Fallen Angel issue in the abandoned church. And got in contact with Azazel." Her eyes widened a bit when she heard what he said.

"Oh? What did he say? Is he strong? Compared to Albion?" Julis asked curiously if the girl wanted to make a hierarchy of strength in her mind.

"He is level 8, though I didn't sense anything from him, his powers and energy were under a tight leash."

'Tell your mate that there is no way he is as strong as I am! Remember all three biblical factions needed to unite to face us!' Albion with quite an annoyed tone said to his partner.

It made Alex stop for a bit and chuckle.

"Albion was offended that you compared him and Azazel."

The Pink Princess snorted with amusement.

"My apologies, but it's hard for me to see you as big and taught Dragon. My first impression of you was not the best." The girl said with an amused smile.

'Your mate is a witch! Tell me how you deal with this! She indirectly stomped my pride as Dragon Emperor.'

The White Dragon Emperor said with a pained voice.

'She is a witch, that's her nickname in her original world.'

The dragon simply groaned and retreated to the back of Alex's mind. He is not built to fight these…women? Witches? Whatever it is… he is out of here!

"Poor thing he has retreated because of you Julis." The black-haired teen chuckled before starting to cuddle with his girlfriend. The witch in question positioned herself to sit on his lap. They ended up watching television. It was some sort of documentary that the pinkhead was watching. It was a different thing for her in her previous world.

To see the world before the catastrophic event that changed her world.

They stayed like this for around an hour. As soon as Alex started to feel hungry, like really hungry!

*Stomach Rubble*

"..."

"..."

"Well, well, after effects? I suppose your metabolism has changed even more now." Julis said with an amused smile, this is getting amusing and at the same time a little bit concerning. She does hope this will sort out after the next dive in the dungeon.

"Yeah, it appears so. I am starving. Let me make the evening snacks." As he said that he picked her casually up and placed them on the couch before proceeding to walk over to the kitchen and then starting to cook.

He was pretty much using his supernatural speed to work in the kitchen which amused the pink-haired Princess even more. She didn't mind that he didn't wait for her answer. It was an amusingly weird moment.

'Is it even a word? Hmm, I should check it out on the internet…wait, is it even a thing in such an age?'

That moment she recalled that her other half didn't want the internet around as it would distract her plan to have Alex for herself.

Though does it matter now?

'Well, whatever, maybe he will notice it himself.'

Julis thought to herself there was a smile on her face, the girl doesn't truly care if there is internet or not. Not that Alex needs it anyway.

After a few minutes, she left the comfortable couch and proceeded to prepare the table for them. Placing the cutlery on the table she had a chance to see what he was cooking.

She saw a lot of…meat.

"...Why so much meat?" The pink Princess had genuine curiosity there. She doesn't mind this much meat but she is genuinely interested. The girl doubts she will ever see another moment when a human gives away his heart to a dragon. So she was just curious about how his mind works now.

"...I just feel the hunger for it. Like an extremely hard sugar rush, like you just hunger for it." He tried to explain what he was feeling.

"Fascinating…"

At that moment a pair of energy wings manifested on Alex's back.

"Partner's body is adjusting to the heart. I am quite sure that he will experience a growth spur and his muscles will get more robust."

Julis' eyes widened for a bit, that moment she realised that her boyfriend would become even hotter! This is just fantastic! But then she realised that those devils would start looking at him even more hungrily! Power AND looks in one!

"I thought you retreated to recuperate after that defeat?" Alex asked his dragon partner.

"Hahaha! I need more than a simple trashing to be defeated like this!" The Vanishing Dragon said with a boastful tone.

Julis snapped out of her thoughts when she heard that. The Princess snorted in amusement.

"Good to know, I will try harder next time. Besides I am quite happy that your pride is not THAT fragile."

"Of course!" Albion said with a not THAT certain tone. He doesn't truly know. himself. He never had a girl who talked back to him like this. Are all modern females like this?

Then he realised that this female was not even from this world and on top of that she was from some distant future.

"Good to hear." She smiled brightly at him, but this only made the Vanishing Dragon get nervous.

"Anyway, I guess that you will be feeling these weird urges for some time before your body stabilises. But who knows how it will affect you in the Dungeon."

As the dragon was telling the theories of what could happen Alex was listening in and watching over his food. Not that he could control himself and from time to time he would taste too much.

Eventually, he was done with the food and started to bring it to the dinner table. Julis, who was already waiting for him, could only watch the number of dishes with a certain amount of shock.

"I can understand that you are hungry but this is enough for four people." She said with disbelief, the pink-haired girl didn't expect that it would be THIS much food! Hell, he even made some smoked meat sandwiches WiTH several layers of vegetables and meat! He is going all out!

"...Do you want to hear a secret?"

"...Okay…?"

"I don't think it's enough," Alex said while shaking his head.

The girl had a thoughtful look for a bit before giving her opinion.

"...In that case finish this and we will see if you want more." She said that with quite a serious tone. Now she is a little bit worried. The only one who can tell her if this is normal is Albion, and Albion himself never properly observed this before.

So there are no recorded incidents of heart replacement, and internally it just drives her nuts.

"I suppose, let's see if I can eat all of this in the first place."

Julis nodded at his enthusiasm and proceeded to eat her share of food.

Partially she was quite intensely watching how he was eating and truthfully she was impressed and even horrified by how swiftly he was consuming all that food!

She did mention before when he acquired Electrokinesis for the first time that he was consuming food faster but this time it was even more!

"...Alex, breathe! It won't disappear!" The pink-haired girl said with some sweat rolling down from her forehead.

"...?"

*Gulp*

The current White Dragon Emperor gulped down the food before talking.

"I am fine, it's… just that I need to eat it, you know?" Did he try to explain it to her to make…sense? It's like Albion said, he is feeling strong emotions which makes him just want to do it! Just eat it!

"...I see… just don't rush we have enough time." The girl said with a sigh and proceeded to eat her food while watching him attentively. Making sure he doesn't choke on the meat the way he was eating it.

Eventually, he finished all of it and then proceeded to make more Sandwiches just in case.
