Rise Of The Dragon Emperor-Chapter 87 After 2 years
After 3 full years of living inside the cave and having every possible sense taken from him , Ronan lived the last 3 months of his tenure simulating a near dead state.
Devoid of any sense at all , Ronan was forcefully bedridden . He could not sleep due to the nightmares but his eyes had no more light inside them to distinguish day from night after he gave up his vision.
With nothing but his brain functioning , Ronan was just a slab of meat , passing time without knowing when his suffering would end. However the last 3 months saw him develop the most terrifying natural skill of them all as he discovered the secrets of his own body.
Although he could not see , Ronan could visualize the internal structure of his very own body and feel every mana vein clearly and the mobilization of elemental energy in his own body’s pathways.
He understood the true nature of his elemental affinity and thinking deeper on the lessons Oogway had given him , he deduced a lot of theories about how the universe operated.
Although he could not train , his mind took the biggest leap in the last 3 months as he finally broke through the mortal ranks and became level 101!
It was a huge accomplishment and at the young age of 13 , it was safe to say he had achieved more in his childhood than most warriors would achieve in a lifetime.
His body underwent qualitative changes after he went past level 100 , as he felt the walls of his mana circuit expanding and the quality of elemental essense within improving by leaps and bounds.
Although this phenomenon was observed after every level up , the change from level 100 to 101 was especially big as the single level up increased his strength by atleast 30% from before.
On his last day at the place , vishvakarma visited him and returned to him all his senses as he treated him to a hearty and sumptuous meal. However while Ronan had dreamt of this day time and time again during his stay inside the cave of penance , when it finally came he had no emotion of happiness in his face at all..
Thanking the god for the good food , Ronan ate it like a civilized man relishing every bite that he took as he thanked his good fortune to be able to eat such tasty food.
Vishvakarma who saw this , approved immensely of Ronan’s demeanor as with this meal he was assured that Ronan had understood the path of hardship and penance.
Giving Ronan an extra reward for staying for the full 3 years , vishvakarma showed him out of the cave of penance as he wished him the best in all his future endeavours.

Ronan found himself in a farmer’s field when he stepped out of the cave of penance as he finally saw the vivid colors of the world once more.
Having doubted if the real world was actually full of color or was it his own mental illusion , Ronan was glad to know that his brain was not playing tricks on him and the world indeed was as beautiful as he remembered.
The fresh air , and the sense of freedom made Ronan feel like he could finally spread his wings and soar to the sky , however even though his heart felt liberated his mind regulated his emotional state to keep him stone cold at the situation.
It was uncanny how calm he was , as he moved through the corn fields of the farmer towards the small hut .
Ronan’s intention was to figure out where exactly he was before planning his next move , but never in a million years would he have thought he would be so close to home !

( Meanwhile In Avalon)
A big banuqet was being held inside the palace of Avalon as Percy Draco had finally ascended to the higher realms after becoming Level 101.
After Maddy’s betrayal Percy became a man obsessed with perfection and hardwork as he trained like an absolute madman and him becoming level 101 at the young age of 15 was testament to his hardwork paying off.
There was a joyous atmosphere in the entire country of Avalon as their first prince had achieved a great milestone in life and his future as a king looked extremely promising.
With such a competent replacement to Alexander the citizens were assured that Avalon would prosper for many decades more to come.
The banquet was also monumental because it was the day Alexander had decided Percy as the crown prince of avalon and enlist him as the second commander of the Avalonian army.
Many foreign dignitaries and nobles and every major clan inside Avalon attended this banquet and it was a grand celebration.
Fate had brought Ronan back at a very interesting day as his family felt his absence the most at this joyous event.
Alexander was now level 161 with a deep scar running across his chest and another one across his forehead.
His aura had completely changed since he had returned from the ancient ruins and his political authority had skyrocketed.
Even the central empire started to grow weary of Alexander Draco as level 160 was too high to be ignored anymore , as the man could destroy cities alone at this point.
With Percy’s future even brighter than Alexander’s , the central empire decided to send two nobles from their land as ambassadors to attend the banquet and establish diplomatic relations with the fire nation.
However even though they sought to establish political relationship , the central empire refused to hand over the criminals of phoenix clan taking shelter in their lands , as they saw it to be beneath them to co-operate on equal terms with a small nation like Avalon.
Alexanders killing spree of wiping entire clans on his way back to the capital city still remained a matter of debate in the noble circle , as the king who was missing from action for nearly 2 and a half years , returned with a bang and eliminated every rebel forces that dared to raise their heads in his absence before reclaiming the throne of Avalon.
With new battlescars and an incredibly dense killing aura , he was labelled as the ‘ Slaughter King ‘ , however despite his terrifying name in the noble circle , Alexander continued to be favoured by the general public.
Avalon was becoming a very prosperous and wealthy nation as Leif had managed the territory incredibly well , establishing many political connections and negotiating duty free exports.
Having invested heavily in education and public infrastructure in the past , Alexander finally reaped the rewards of the institutions he set over 20 years ago as a high skilled task force finally started to contribute to the economy.
The increased in skilled labour coupled with the low crime rate made Avalon a hot spot for immigration , which in turn provided cheap labour to do menial tasks and keep the society running.

( Meanwhile the world order )
The big 3 had met up for their five yearly meeting at the world order headquarters.
The three men were the pillars of humanity and the first line of protection against all crimes against humanity.
Called the ‘ Protectors ‘ , the three of them stood at the pinnacle of mankind with enough power to destroy entire kingdoms should they wish to do so.
They were
Dark King Darren : A variant elemental user wielding the element shadow. An anamoly in the world of elemental users who reached level 185 despite having such a weak elemental affinity.
Archmage Medivh : The leader of the mage association and the wielder of pure mana .
Having no restrictions of being confined to a single element , he could manipulate the mana of the world itself to create any elements that he wished to.
At level 187 he was the most feared name throughout the Everlon continent , infamous for wiping out an entire kingdom of demons in the Great Magi War 100 years ago.
Finally , The Ultimate Warrior Shakuni : The pinnacle of humanity having the strength surpassing level 196 , shakuni was at the verge of reaching sainthood.
Suspected to be a wood and light dual user , shakuni was the strongest warrior that mankind had ever seen.
Single Handedly defeating an army of 1.2 million angels in the racial wars , Shakuni made a name for himself by being an incarnation of the death God himself.
Unofficially the strongest of the three , shakuni had the highest authority inside the world order.
And today’s meeting of the big three had the agenda of newly emerged forbidden elemental users in the past 5 years , a list that contained the name of Ronan Draco.
