Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

Facing Sierra’s wrath Percy finally realised his wrongdoings. He felt ashamed of himself that he had attacked his own brother with a forbidden attack and jeopardized his future as a fighter.

In his true heart he never wanted any harm to befall on his brother however he did not want him to surpass him either. Muddlehead in the face of the intense fight he made an irrational decision and was extremely regretful for it.

Since the rewards ceremony was starting Percy was supposed to be present at the grand arena , hence dragging his sore and broken body to the fighting stage , Percy prepared an apology in his mind.

As he was walking out he saw grandmother Luna talking to some officials in the tunnel , however although she glanced at him there was no warmth in her gaze. She only gave him a long and fierce look that said ‘ This is not over, boy ‘

Percy felt even more regretful about his choice of attack , it seemed like he had antagonized the entire family.

His soul shuddered thinking that Alexander might be angry at him for the antics he had pulled , the fear of his father was so profound inside him that he got goosebumps on his skin just thinking about it._.

Shaking his head Percy walked out to the arena where every single participant was lined up and being called on the stage in the order of their ranking for various sect masters to recruit them.

This offer was not only applicable for local talents but also for various sect talents who could use this opportunity to change their sect if they wanted to.

Naturally changing sects would definitely antagonize their previous sect members , however it was a risk they had to be willing to take to progress on the path of a warrior.

When the Avalonian crowd saw their crown prince walk back out on his feet a mad cheer went down the crowd as they were all very worried about the wellbeing of Percy.

Naturally the loud noise drew everyone’s attention from the local boy on the stage to the illustrious crown prince , as finally Alexander and Augustus ‘s gaze landed on Percy.

Percy looked at his grandfather first and saw a complicated expression on his face , but unlike Sierra and Luna there was a lot of warmth inside it , it was more of a releif that he was okay and less of anger at his mistake , nonetheless Percy was ashamed.

Finally Percy glanced at his father with his pupils stretched to the top as he lowered his head. Seeing the expressionless face his heart sank as all of his worst fears were recognized. His father was going to give him hell later on.

Sighing, Percy then took his place in the queue right infront of Ronan Draco as he looked at his brother with guilty eyes.

The contestants were placed in accordance to their rankings as the fighters with the lowest scores went for the picking first while the better ones came later.

Naturally as the winner Ronan was the last one in the queue who looked extremely bored with the formal proceedings.

Ronan looked at his brothers guilty expression and raised an eyebrow, he could not understand the pain in his heart, but thinking what he would feel if he was under this circumstance Ronan said ” It’s just a fight brother, there are worse things to lose. I learnt a lot in this fight , I’m sure you did too , we both come out as better fighters ,it’s fun, don’t fret over it so much “.

Percy’s dropped his head even lower in shame as he heard this , his brother did not even care about winning or losing that much , yet he was obsessed to keep him in check.

He was lucky to have a brother like Ronan who held no ambition for the crown at all and who did not try to undermine his authority. At every step of his career Ronan was his support and yet he used a forbidden attack on this very brother.

While Percy knew that Ronan was not as proficient as him in matters of diplomacy, there was no question about the fact that Ronan was a military powerhouse and extremely intelligent in tactics and warfare.

If Percy was someone who could plot and scheme very well then Ronan was a natural whose very thoughts and analysis were unconventional and effective. Although he liked to charge headfirst into things , when he actually used his head he could be more terrifying than Percy was.

This meant that if Ronan wanted to he could make himself a candidate for the throne of Avalon , but his younger brothers ambitions were never ruling a kingdom.

Swearing in his heart that he would always support his brother and never try to suppress him again Percy let go of the knot in his heart before it became a heart demon and said ” I’m sorry brother , the last attack I used on you was dangerous…. it’s not what you should use on a brother “.

Percy’s voice was full of regret and Ronan was taken aback. He had felt a blood boiling challenge from that last attack and it was fun in his opinion, however from Percy’s point of view it was dangerous.

Laughing Ronan said ” It’s okay brother , the real jungle is way more crueler”.

Saying this Ronan looked into the distant sky as he remembered his dead sensei Karna, he had not forgotten his death and it was not going to be a revenge that he was going to give up on without settling it with blood.
