Project Superior: A Hero's Awakening

The Divine Encounter

Within his vast and extraordinary imagination, Xavier had the same dream he had for many years. A mother in a hospital ward, holding her newborn baby and singing to it as her husband entered the room.

The dream concluded as usual, with Xavier unable to hear the newborn's name before waking up.

As Xavier awoke, sweating profusely, he was perplexed to see that he was in a gigantic cave beneath the ground.

Xavier attempted to get up, but he yelled in anguish as his bandaged wounds slowly reopened and bled.

He then grabbed a nearby stick to assist him in standing up and exploring the cave.

As Xavier investigated the cave, he noticed various carvings on the walls and an incredible amount of gold, jewels, and valuables that would drive a man wild.

Xavier then came upon a portion of the cave, including a magnificent metallic royal gate. That looked like the one he saw during his fight with the varmint.

However, a powerful earthquake shook the entire underground cave, and the dragon returned to its lair.

Xavier, feeling that the dragon had returned to its home, hid in dread to avoid being captured by it.

The dragon began to stroll around the cave, hunting for Xavier, and each step shook the entire cave.

Xavier did his best not to make a sound as the dragon went right past his hiding spot.

"Found you," the dragon snarled, glaring at Xavier from behind his hiding place with ferocious and menacing draconic eyes.

When Xavier realized the fearsome dragon had discovered him, he shouted at the top of his lungs, fell to the floor, and crawled away in fear.

Xavier hid his face, shivering with horror. However, upon seeing Xavier's reaction, the dragon burst out laughing.

"You don't have to worry, child, I won't eat you," the dragon said.

"Humans aren't my favorite snack, to begin with," the dragon added amusingly.

Surprised that the dragon could speak, Xavier cautiously removed his hand to examine the dragon's appearance.

Xavier was utterly astonished as he peered at the massive and majestically-divine dragon.

The enormous dragon possessed snow-white skin, extremely strong scales, and gold patterns all over its body. But it appeared to be way smaller than when Xavier first encountered it.

It had six heavenly, magnificent wings that were attached to its extraordinarily muscular body.

Its tail was as long as a sequoia tree. With its razor-sharp long horns, which stretched out and curved in. Its second pair of razor-sharp horns, which were much smaller, followed the same pattern.

However, the dragon appeared injured, with numerous terrible scars on its body.

Xavier was completely taken by the dragon's stunning golden sky-like eyes, which radiated like the sun.

"Who are you?" Xavier inquired, speechless.

"And where am I?" Xavier continued.

The Dragon, seeing how mesmerized and in awe Xavier was by its magnificent and divine-like appearance, grinned and replied, "I am the mighty, Dragon King Alcmena.".

"The King of the Dragons; the Grand Herrscher of the Cosmic Realms; the Patriarch of Kings; and the Prince of Stars," the dragon declared proudly and confidently.
