Waking up Three Suns finds himself surrounded by The Dragon Emperor, G.o.ddess Valara, G.o.ddess Freya, G.o.ddess Heather, G.o.ddess Lillie, and G.o.ddess Rose, While Timothy is carrying him on his back and Vincent behind Timothy. "What.. What happened while I was knocked out Timothy! The last thing I remember is the Monster King Alba going berserk when we injured him, my arm.. yes my arm was swallowed whole by that beast." Shaking his head he looks up ahead seems he was saved from death, he then pats Timothy on the shoulder to let him know he is awake. Realizing his hand is not gone he stares blankly at Vincent for answers as the three of them stop for a moment letting him recover."G.o.ddesses Lillie and Rose specialize in medical techniques I have never seen before. they saved us from death, as for your arm they used a method I never seen before to regrow it."
"I heard they are learning pill refinement as well. Just imagine the things they will be able to do, in the entire Blood Sun Continent there are very few Weapon Smiths and Pill Refiners. They came here not knowing anything at all about our methods but now they have surpa.s.sed those Tier 2 Pill Refiners. Our Empire now has two Tier 5 Pill Refiners and they are training others in the art, while we also have the Weapon Smith G.o.ddess Samantha, she can already craft Heaven Level weapons."
Timothy, Three Suns, Vincent start talking about the future as they move with the Army and the ten thousand plus Villagers, making there way out of Dark Moon Forest after destroying the Cult of Saint Charles. Three Suns pauses for a moment looking at Timothy he ask. "Where is Alba? Did they kill him when they saved us!?"
laughing at his late question about the Monster King who nearly killed them both Timothy points to the cage directly under Lady Heather. "They kept him alive on my request, we almost killed him and so I have made it so he will die by our hands! Three Suns you risked your very life to try and save me and I would be a fool to leave you behind my friend."
This battle forged a deep friendship between the three during this near death experience. Three Suns the strongest of the three could feel himself on the verge of a breakthrough, but he could feel a force suppressing his breakthrough into the Heaven Realm. "Seems the Calamity that wiped out our beloved Continent long ago is still lingering it is stopping my Breakthrough." Three Suns lets both Vincent and Timothy know about his growth during this last battle. "We should inform the Emperor of the Ruins of the Blood Sun Empire, I am sure that is the reason I can not Breakthrough."
Both Vincent and Timothy agreed, to become stronger to protect the people they had to find out why the Ruins restricted only humans from breakthroughs.

Lime Leaf
Walking into the Thousand Empress Palace the Village Elders make their way to the throne room.
"Elder Omar what does the Emperor wish to see us for, we were elders of a Village that had no more than two thousand people."
"The Village is not even a Village anymore it is more like a small City it has over ten thousand people now, half of the people even joined the Army with fifty percent of it being female Villagers what is going on Elder Omar! why have they not stopped recruiting did we not repel the Three Sun Empire Coalition?"
Greeted by the ma.s.sive throne room doors, the party of Elders stand in the gorgeous white hallway that was carved from marble, the ground a pit black material that glows under their feet. Standing guard at the doors they see two villagers Elise and Anna. "Anna, Elise how did you get the position to guard the Emperors throne room?" One of the Elders could not hold it in as he blurted out his question to the two young female guards.
"We both joined the army after knowing the treatment for women in the army is slightly better than it is for men, G.o.ddess Tia favors women in power so many of the poor and orphaned females of the Village joined. Girls from ages 8 and up joined, while those too young are in the care of Lady Tia"s school she opened herself. Don"t worry she is not cruel or mistreats men, she seems to allow anyone who wants power to gain it. Her school has many young boys and girls in it if not all the children of the Village. Parents are grateful someone is providing safety and education for the kids, leaving them more time to worry about things to come. Most like us just joined the army, besides this post is nothing compared to guarding the Emperors bed chambers, I hear only females can guard it they also have to be unmarried and reach the peak of the Refinement Realm."
Hearing the bombardment of information the Elders begin talking to themselves about why most of their youths joined the Empires Army and a few of their daughters refused marriages as of late.
Both Throne room doors being opened ends their rushed talks and future plans, before them inside the Throne room they see a vast s.p.a.cious room filled with seats numbering in the tens of thousands. Such a Grand place being open to them was outside what they expected, looking inside they can see people have already arrived before them. A maid then walks in front of the group.
"Elders thank you for coming I am a.s.signed to serve you and will lead you to your seats, this way please." Standing besides the maid were four others two men and two women, who lead the group of Elders to a table to the right, right behind those who already arrived.
Arriving at their seats they can finally make out the three men in front of them, one they all know very well. General Timothy!
As they guess who the other two are, Timothy turns to them. "Elders you finally made it welcome to The Throne room, these two besides me are Former Emperor Three Suns and Elder Vincent. They are the ruling powers of The Three Suns Empire."
Just learning that before them is Emperor Three Suns causes great shock in the Elders of Lime Leaf, then without a doubt the table ahead is the Thousand Empresses who serve the Dragon Emperor. Each of the Elders gaze ahead to spot a thousand beautiful women, half with glowing luminescent hair of various colors, a group who"s beautiful scaled smooth skin would cause men to run wild while the last group closely resemble humans the difference being the otherworldly beautiful looks they possess each a living fairy.
They then try to find the Emperor who has called for them, looking up at the empty throne they see a young man behind it sitting on a ma.s.sive serpent that is coiling about in the back of the throne room." That powerful serpent is to huge, when did they get a Monster King inside the Village" Elder Omar ask Timothy in shock.
"That Father is the Dragon Emperors Tail. even we don"t know how truly ma.s.sive it is but he prefers sitting on it than the throne, It should be starting soon father enjoy the food we are witnessing the Rise of the Dragon Empire!"
