Immediately after Galen left, Xavier quietly called Liam to a corner and asked.
"Hey, what's your net worth?"
"Um, If it's just coin, let's say I have two hundred thousand gold coin, but if it's everything then I guess its More than a million, why do you ask?"
"Wait, let me hear you clearly, I might be hearing wrongly right now."
"Don't faint, it's the truth."
"Almost two hundred physical gold coins with you?" He said with a questioning tone.
"Correct!"
"Including asset; almost a million"
"Correcto! you didn't miss a single details"
"Ahh" Xavier let out a loud cry of pain, right now his heart has been stabbed numerous times, the pain from it was as expected.
He was going to faint any time soon. he had a little brother, that's a fact.
But money wise, he was the youngest of the two.
He was down as he staggered out of the room, he stopped on his track when he remembered to ask him a question.
"So in the future, I can take loan from you?" He wanted to really know if Liam was good in the heart.
"Sure..." Liam let out.
Xavier did not let him finish what he was saying before jumping into conclusion.
'I knew it, the kind nature of mom flows through him'
"But with an interest ranging from 10 - 40% depending on the amount and rate."
"Wait, you will take interest from me? aren't we brothers that should have each other back at all time?"
"Of course we are, but in business having too much brother will bring your downfall. when I do business, I don't care who you really are."
Oh, he said he didn't care who he was, so painful!
After saying that he left the room.
...
A day after the visit, Liam and Xavier journeyed toward the Gregor family.
On their way, they have to pass through one of the Desolate forest in great Sun empire because it was the quickest route to their destination.
Just as the name, this place was a place that human seldom use, it was filled with a lot of dangers such as Demonic beasts and traps.
Although it was a good route, no one has ever used it for the past years because when one is strong, if they enter the forest they will not survive and will not return.
Right at this moment, the two were fighting against one of the reason why the people from the great sun empire has refused to use this route.
Behold the two was up Against a cursed Dragon, the dragon has ascended the Mortal realm, which means he was three times stronger than a peak stage human lord and two times stronger than a Transcending human realm.
This beast was blocking their path, it was large and it has no reverse scale, it was so strong to the extent that it can't be tame by mere mortals, even those at the earth stage will not be able to tame it.
For dragons, once they have attached Power their weakness which was the reverse scale will be hidden.
Just like how the weak points in human reduces as they get stronger.
The dragon had dark black scale, it was thick such that arrows could not penetrate.
Not only that, this dragon also has the power to regenerate it's body, which means Killing it has become even harder.
To make things worse, it was a serpent Dragon.
At that moment, Xavier used his sword to stab the dragon from under while Liam ran on top of the snake with an enviable speed as he tried to make it blind.
"Blood art, multiple Sword casting"
He drew out a lot of blood from the mechanism sword and used the Blood art to call out to multiple Sword crafted from blood.
Then he used his thoughts to control them, sending them darting towards the eyes of the dragon.
"Roarrrrr.
Just then, a loud roar came from the dragon as it used it's body to evade the attacks, using the thick scale to fling the blood weapons flying at him.
Seeing this, an idea popped up, he smiled as he proceed to carry out that idea.
He summoned out the last blood contained in the mechanism Sword, using them to craft numerous sword that he sent flying towards the dragon.
Nevertheless, although it was the same pattern of attack one could see that there was a difference in number and the sword this time were not of even shapes.
The dragon resent the human for using the same attack pattern, with a roar, his tail flew out and stopped all the blood Weapons at once before it turned to face Liam but this time the pest didn't have the fearful expression he once had, on his face was an Expression of victory.
Cursed dragon scoffed, he wondered if human were happy for defeat.
"Pierce!!"
Liam became active again, the dragon frantically looked around.
But then immediately his head tilted, numerous weapons appeared stabbing it's eyes.
It roared furiously.
It's tail furiously whip toward the trees and sent all of them in the nearest 2 kilometers to be fallen.
On the dragons eyes, thick red blood flowed out as it roared in pain and furiously destroyed it's own habitat.
Seeing this a smile crept on Liam's lip.
"Xavier, do you stuff, I'll hold it down for now."
"Xavier, alright, it will be ready in the next fifteen minutes,"
After saying that, Xavier took out a silver cauldron that has been with him since he came back from saving emerald and Julian.
He took out several ingredients from his spatial ring, each one of them giving off a Fiery flame power.
Floating in the air like feathers.
Xavier summoned out blue flame in his hands and places them on the lid of the cauldron.
Immediately, the inside of the cauldron was engulfed in Blue flame.
The sound of it burning could be heard.
Just then, he took out a plant with golden leaf and red colored flowers and placed it in the cauldron.
Meanwhile, Liam was up against the dragon Unleashing attacks after attacks, drying his very best to hold the monster in it's place so that Xavier will have enough time to forge the pill he wanted to forge.
'Shit, this bastard can still regenerate it's eyes.' he was pissed at the thought of that.
Not only could the dragon do such stuffs as healing injured body parts, it could also regenerate it's eyes that was been stabbed off his face.
If that was the case then it means he was up again a formidable Opponents and thus losing was not an option.
He can't take down the dragon with his strength and with martial arts but he could do so after Xavier was done Wii the pill he was forging.
He held the sword away from his body and transferred essence into it, the essence engulfed the sword.
Without hesitating, he rushed towards it's tail, with his eyes he tried hacking into the next movement of his opponent.
The dragon roared once he felt a threat on his tail, it used it's gigantic body to wipe Liam off the ground.
Liam was sent tumbling backward, he only managed to gain balance with his sword stabbed into the ground.
He coughed out blood, he used his hands to clean the blood lingering at the end of his lip.
"I'm almost done" Xavier called out to Liam.
"Yeah, I know, but first I have to teach this dragon bastard a lesson" Liam said and took out another sword from his spatial ring and struck at the dragon one more time.
His body was covered in flame as he did so, his eyes blazed with hate as he approached his opponent with more rage than ever.
Xavier who was forging a top Grade offensive pill was surprised when he felt the powerful aura on his body, the flame was numerouss stronger than the one he was using to forge.
He wondered if by any means was Liam a divine flame power use.
Meanwhile, Liam got pretty closed to the dragon and summoned out numerous number of toxic flame balls that affected the body of the cursed dragon causing the beast to cry in pain
"Done" Liam had Xavier say, he nodded his head and quickly switched plans, this time he used it's sword to attack the tail so that the cause dragon will scream, that way it will be possible for them to use the pills on it.
Liam reached the tail, then he sent out a flying sword attack on it.
Xavier threw his body into the air as be unleashed two green red colored pills into the cursed dragons mouth causing the beast to swallow it involuntarily.
Immediately the pill sinked down, it has started working already and was sending too much pain to the body of the cursed dragon as the beast frantically tossed itself around.
"Boom!".
"Boom!"
