Edward walked into a large room full of gold, silver, and jewelry. As soon as he entered, the gigantic dragon opened its eyes for a moment before closing them. Then, he opened both of them, raising his head as he gazed down.
"Tier 8? You're already Tier 8?" his voice booming as a few piles of treasures scattered because of the vibration. "How long since I last saw you? How could you become so powerful so quickly?
"No, there is something else."
The towering beast who naturally sat at the top of the food chain began to sniff around Edward.
"What are you doing acting like a dog?" said Edward, bewildered.
"This scent, I know it. It's the scent of people that have come into contact with [Authority]. Have you become a Law Magus? How is that possible?"
"Law Magus? Is that the name of the Magus Race who controls the law? Well, I always learn something new and interesting every time I come to see you."
"Answer my question," demanded the dragon.
"Calm down."
Albion realized he was acting too rash, so he took a moment to breathe and calm down, "You really became a Law Magus?"
"Yes."
The dragon paused for a moment, "Prove it."
"You don't believe me?"
"Honestly, it's far-fetched."
"I'm sure there are others in the universe."
"People can only control [Authority] by achieving Godhood," replied Albion. "A few people from ancient species like the High Elves have become Law Magus, but they are rare.

"But what about the dragon race?"
Albion looked at him but did not answer, and Edward shrugged his shoulders.
"Are you going to show me the proof?" asked the Thunder Dragon King.
"I can't."
"Why not?" asked the dragon with a frown. "I thought you were all about Equivalent Exchange? What I said is more than enough for a proof demonstration."
"I'm not saying that I won't, but I can't. You should be able to figure out the reason for yourself."
A look of realization dawned on the mighty magical beast, "You succeeded, didn't you? You found a way to exit the Astral Realm and leave the universe?"
"Yes," replied Edward. Previously, he never gave the dragon a direct answer, but he did not hesitate this time.
"How is that possible?" asked the dragon, not minding how many times he had said these words. The Dragon Race has been searching for a way to leave the universe for countless eons since they believed that's the path the Magus Race walked.
They divided the race into the Dragon Gods and the Dragon Temple to use the path of Godhood and their original magical talent as a way to better understand the universe and accomplish their goals.
Yet, after so many years, they have nothing to offer in their research.
But a human from a part of the galaxy that is considered the Ghetto actually succeeded.
"As much as I would want to take credit, the main reason for my success is luck."
"Oh, how so?"
"I discovered the breach in reality that the Magus Race used in a parallel dimension. After studying it, I developed the technology."
"I see...Wait, did you say parallel dimensions?"
"Yes."
"You opened the Gate to the Multiverse?"
"Yes, ages ago."
Albion closed his eyes, trying to calm down; he did not know how to process his emotions. The Multiverse was another failure of the Dragon Race–albeit not a complete one like their attempt to leave the Astral Realm.
"You must be a Child of Destiny," said Albion suddenly. "That would explain all your anomalies."
"Child of Destiny? What's that?" Edward had heard the term before in the s he read in Primordial Earth. However, he pretended to be confused.
"It is a Universal Mechanism very prevalent in the Heavenly Dao Plane. Every time the plane faced an invasion that it could not deal with, the Plane Will would choose someone and bless them with unparalleled talent, luck, and destiny.
"And such a person is called a Child of Destiny."
"So, basically, the protagonist of a story," said Edward.
"Exactly. Such a protagonist will bring great development and changes to the plane, allowing them to deal with the upcoming invasion," nodded Albion as he gazed at him curiously.
"Although such a method is prevalent in that plane, it's not unheard of for other powerful planes to do the same. So, I'm guessing Cronai chose you to prepare for a future threat in our plane."
Edward pondered briefly. Albion was not exactly correct. Cronai chose him because he displayed tremendous talent and luck. In other words, her blessing was nothing but adding wings to a tiger.
Furthermore, Edward guessed Cronai only chose him after he created the Empire. Furthermore, she did not do it completely because of foreign threats but simply because she was tired of the Gods and their inadequacy.
"You seem to have thought of something. Did you notice certain signs?" asked Albion.
"You don't need to do these things."
The dragon grunted at him, but Edward ignored him. "I came here to acquire the Advance Dragon Language from you."
"Unfortunately, this is the highest secret of the Dragon Clan, something even the High Elves desire. So, I can't reveal them to you."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Do you know where this place is?"
"Why are you asking such a strange question?"
"This place is located outside the Astral Realm, a place where the restrictions of your Bloodline Source have been drastically reduced. I placed you here to prevent your kind from finding you and discovering the Empire.
"So, even if you pass it to me, there won't be any problem."
The dragon contemplated for a moment, "I know the High Elves' Spirit Language, which is the source of their High Magic. I can exchange it with you."
Edward shook his head, "If I guess correctly, the Advance Dragon Language allows your race to resonate with certain [Authority] and use their powers.
"You're the Dragon King, so you must be very knowledgeable in the Thunder Character, allowing you to borrow the power of Thunder Law.
"My theory is that each of the Dragon Kings knows one Advance Dragon Character that corresponds to their attribute. Am I correct?"
"You're right," said the dragon, who felt exhausted dealing with someone of such high wisdom. "Since you know this truth, you should understand my character won't do you much since you don't have Thunder Authority."
"No, it's even more valuable since it can allow me to control Thunder Law."
"The Thunder Character can only allow resonance with the Thunder Authority of the universe. It cannot allow you to control…"
The dragon stopped as he realized his words made no sense. This man already controlled other Authorities, so the Thunder Character can be used by him to control a new one. In other words, it was perfect for someone like him.
"Have you realized the true purpose of the Thunder Character? Or any of your Dragon Advance Language?" said Edward. "They are the best training for people to become Law Magus, as you called it."
In the future, when an Arcanist reaches the Willpower requirement to become Legends, they can study whatever Characters are needed for whatever Authority they wish to control.
Edward even plans to create his own character based on his Four Laws of Space, Time, Destruction, and Curse to allow other people to learn from them.
And once he acquires more laws, he will also create other characters for them. However, now, he wished to get his hands on the Dragon's Character to learn more Laws and how to create these characters.
"You want to train more Law Magus?" asked Albion.
"Isn't that obvious? My goal is to create an Era even more prosperous than the Magus Race."
