First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 432

Chapter 432: Moving Forward

The days passed quietly, nature slowly beginning its long healing process as grass sprouted from scorched earth and new life tentatively returned to the once-ravaged forest due to the high mana density in the forest.

Three days slipped away peacefully under Eldric and Selene’s watchful guardianship from the shadows above.

Orion lay undisturbed in restful unconsciousness, his body rapidly recovering from the catastrophic battle, the powerful healing elixir and his innate draconic vitality mending his injuries.

Finally, on the morning of the third day, Orion stirred gently, a faint groan escaping his lips as he slowly regained consciousness.

His eyelids fluttered open slowly, sunlight hitting his face like a slap. For a long moment, Orion stared quietly at the clear blue sky above, his thoughts gradually organizing themselves.

He felt soreness throughout his body, yet it wasn’t that bad, the severe pain of his injuries was largely subsided now.

Orion slowly moved his limbs, relieved to find nothing permanently damaged or missing. A wave of gratitude swept through him toward Selene.

Slowly rising into a seated position, Orion scanned his surroundings, eyes narrowing in contemplation as fragmented memories of the battle resurfaced.

The image of the Realm Destroyer Sword’s spectacular transformation and subsequent self-destruction flashed vividly in his mind, causing him to exhale softly in awe.

"Realm Destroyer..." Orion murmured again softly, echoing his own words from before, a faintly amused smile touching his lips. "Hahaha truly my Grandma. Such an epic name."

Lumi paused for a fleeting moment, millions of thoughts racing rapidly through her mind. Her tiny avatar inside Orion’s Sea of Consciousness put on a straight, serious face and confidently explained,

[Due to your fierce battle with that beast, the surrounding creatures have been completely terrified and scattered. Moreover, the lingering aura of the Wind Law is deterring them from stepping foot into this area for now.]

Her explanation flowed so naturally and effortlessly that Orion found no loopholes to question further.

And he trusted Lumi completely so there was no need to doubt here, he nodded thoughtfully, his expression relaxing slightly, "Ah, I see. That does make sense. Given the scale of destruction and the terrifying aura left behind, I doubt any beast below Exalted Grade would dare approach this place for quite some time."

Feeling somewhat reassured, Orion slowly rose to his feet, still slightly unsteady but slowly getting better. Carefully, he began to gather the scattered fragments of the Realm Destroyer Sword from the scorched earth, a sense of melancholy and regret flickering in his eyes.

As he held the broken shards tenderly in his hands, Orion exhaled a sad sigh, "Sigh, Grandma personally forged this sword just for me...and yet, I’ve managed to destroy it in battle. I wonder, will she scold me for this?"

Lumi’s translucent screen abruptly leaped closer, hovering anxiously beside him as she quickly interjected,
