Chapter 1821 Upgraded Lodestone Heart
The Azure Dragon handed over the Lodestone Heart that it is carrying and grabbed the Moon Rock that Adrian has. Adrian does not know why the Azure Dragon would want that rock, but he did remember a collector back in the real world. Collectors would actually trade items that is not in their favor as long as they get the thing that they want the most.
"I hope you are happy with it." Adrian stated.
"Yes. I am very satisfied with this trade. You can now go and leave as I will need to assess my collection." The Azure Dragon stated as he whisked his hand.
A powerful lightning suddenly struck both Adrian and the sleeping Hajime. One would think that they would have been killed by the lightning strike, but they were just ejected from the divine realm of the Azure Dragon. They were sent straight back to the first floor of the Palace of the Azure Dragon where Hajime's subordinates were having a relaxing time.
"Huh?! What? What just happened?" Hajime stated as he suddenly woke up from his sleep.
"I have gotten the Lodestone Heart as you have promised. Thank you for this favor." Adrian stated as he showed that the Lodestone Heart has indeed landed on his hands.
"You do not need to thank me, Champion Equinox. I have only done what I need to do because of the great debt that you have done for my daughter." Hajime stated.
"Well, I have done what I came to do. What will all of you be doing?" Adrian asked.
"We shall also return back as we have only escorted you to this place. The Azure Dragon seems to have already given me my reward for defending the territory well." Hajime stated as he could be seen carrying two dragon scales on his right hand.
"If that is the case then I can return all of you back to your territory. Please gather here, everyone." Adrian stated as he called all of the warriors that accompanied them.
"All of you line up and gather." Hajime stated but even he is a bit apprehensive on how they will return.
The soldiers lined up and Adrian made sure that all of them are accounted for. Paradox suddenly expanded into a large portal that swept across all of them in an instant. Adrian did not even tell the ones he is helping that the transport will happen but that is much better for him. He wanted to eliminate the fact that one might get scared.
The last one that the Portal Paradox swept was Adrian as he vanished from the interior of the Palace of the Azure Dragon. He would not have been able to achieve this feat if the Azure Dragon flooded the first floor of his palace with powerful energy that destabilized space. As if thinking that Adrian would indeed teleport away, the Azure Dragon isolated the first floor of his palace just for him.
The next thing that the soldiers and Hajime knew is that they are outside of their territory. Adrian appeared last as he made sure that nothing anomalous happened to any of them. There were some that were queasy, but they were all in good health.
"I have transported you back to your territory. I shall now bid you farewell as I am already running out of time." Adrian stated.
"Will you not say goodbye to my daughter? She misses playing with you as she is often bored." Hajime stated.
"I believe that Yumeko is not bored but she is just tired of dreaming too often. She has become the chosen one of the God of Dreams. She might be having more fun in her dreams than in the real world which might be a bad thing if done too often. Please make sure that she wants to stay in the real world and not in the dream world. Although, she is smart enough to know that even if I do not tell her." Adrian stated with a smile as he vanished.

Adrian appeared back in Avalon and immediately went straight to the guild house. He immediately took out Kimat as the bonding process of the Lodestone Heart and the Tempest Core will commence upon his instruction. Adrian did not immediately give Kimat the Lodestone Heart because it is not ordinary by any means.

Description: A Lodestone Heart that has been a possession of the Azure Dragon of the East that was traded to Equinox. It is a powerful conduit of lightning magic and is said to be the greatest treasure any lightning magician may obtain.

"It has slightly become a variation, but it is so small that it did not make the item evolve. I just hope that nothing will happen when Kimat ingests it." Adrian stated as he proceeded to give Kimat the Lodestone Heart.
Adrian expected that Kimat would eat the Lodestone Heart, but he did not. Kimat released powerful lightning from his body that attracted the attention of the Lodestone Heart. He was using the Tempest Core that has fully formed as his new core to absorb the Lodestone Heart.
The power of the Tempest Core was subtly being absorbed by the Lodestone Heart. One might think that this is unfavorable as another material is absorbing another but that is not the case. Kimat is making sure that the Lodestone Heart would be able to take in his own version of lightning as each lightning monster has different lightning attributes.
