Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao-Chapter 248: The Ancestral Dragon Clan: Abel Draknoth
Chapter 248: The Ancestral Dragon Clan: Abel Draknoth
"I greet the Young Sovereign," said the man with a bow.
Arthur nodded calmly and although he was curious about this form of address he let it be for now and said, "This officially our first meeting. I am aware of some things as it was told to me by my adoptive father the Emperor. But I need to hear the full story from you."
"So tell me, who exactly am I?"
The hall went silent for a moment before the man let out a sigh and began to speak even though he had many questions in his heart.
If it was anyone else he would still be able to maintain the aura and dignity of a true powerful figure but before the Young Sovereign he dared not be complacent even if he was stronger.
"My Lord, you must understand that there are certain things which I am under oath not to say to you at this time and if I break the oath I will lose my life as such was the wish of your father."
Arthur nodded to that, "Go on, tell me what you will."
Meanwhile, Arthur could tell with his soul ability that the man was not lying and he could also tell that he was quite excited for some reason even though you can't tell by the man's poker face.
"You my Lord is of the Ancestral Dragon Race of the Ancestral Dragon Universe. Your father is the ninth prince of the Draknoth Royal Family, William Draknoth, and as for your mother, her identity is also a bit special but she forbid me from saying much about her for now."
The man continued and Arthur listened with great interest began to understand a number of this.
Firstly the man's name was Able Draknoth and he is assigned to be Arthur's protector or in simple terms a sort of bodyguard. The reason for all this is because the day Arthur was born there was a heavenly phenomenon which was in alignment to a very old prophecy.
It was a prophecy that spoke of the arrival of the Dragon God Sovereign, one who will have the bloodline of the ancestor of all dragons.
The Ancestral Chaos Dragon God!
The birth of such a figure signified the unification of the Ancestral Dragon Universe which is divided among a great number of different Ancestral Dragon Clans.
So the day that Arthur was born it led to the Draknoth Clan to be besieged on all sides by the other clans and even their allied clans turned their backs on them.
Eventually Arthur's mother used an artifact to send Arthur and Abel to the current universe and by pure coincidence they arrived within the Mortal Emperor Realm.
Abel was severely injured after the battle and had to recuperate while he waited for Arthur to grow up. After a long time, Abel finished his story and look at Arthur to see how he might be feeling but he was left stunned.
Unlike he expected, there was no clenching of fist, no gritting of teeth, no single emotion in Arthur's eyes!
It was almost like he was speaking about something completely unrelated to Arthur, and this left him shocked as anyone who would about immortals and gods battling would at the very least have their emotions stirred up.
Arthur noticed this but saw no need to say anything about it and instead asked, "So what happened to the clan?"
Abel revealed an awkward expression, "I can not say Young Sovereign, as it is part of the things I can only reveal at the appropriate time."
"So when is the appropriate time then?"
"When the young master ascends to the upper realms."
"I see, so what will you be doing till then?" Arthur asked.
Abel bowed once more, "My assisgnment is to accompany the Young Sovereign and assist in your journey while not overdoing it so as to allow the Young Sovereign grow."
"So in essence you are just a babysitter?"
"This…" Abel felt tongue-tied at that.
Arthur shook his head, "It is alright. I understand your difficulties, but is that all you have to tell me?"
Arthur could tell that there was still some things that the man should share.
"Indeed my lord, your mother left an instruction that if the young master is able master a certain ability then he can command me at will, and will not need to wait until all the criteria set by your father is fulfilled."
"And what ability might that be?"
Abel shook his head at that, "I am sorry my lord,"
Arthur raised an eyebrow, "Can't say anything huh? Then we are done for now."
"My Lord…"
Arthur entered the void and disappeared from the man's perception, leading him feeling that his young master is mysterious while he wonders what sort of treasure is within Arthur's possession.
But then he let out a smile, "With such a treasure, I need not worry about his safety, the young master is indeed the future Dragon God Sovereign, what others could not get even in their dreams, he has."
But Abel had no idea how much his words were close and yet far from the truth as Arthur has even in his possession things that no man has had since the beginning of time.
…....
Three days later, it was finally time for the ranking battles and so far the matches have been exciting and many had made a name for themselves and gained a lot of recognition so far.
But among them, there were a few who stood out the most and the first was Qin Tian who was said to be the disciple of a very powerful expert who had lived for a long, long time.

The other was a girl who looked to be no more than 15 years old but she had the air of an expert around her but that was not her most notable trait. It was her martial spirit which looked just like a blue cloud.
And finally there was a very unruly youngster who calls himself the Monkey King and who was apparently a former disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect who is now only a follower of the Prince Arthur, Sun Wukong.
