All the energy of time and elements whirled in a massive vortex. The floating islands and even the time were sucked into the dragon's body as if he turned into a black hole.

The divine energy and mana burst out of his body and spun around him with a ferocity of a volcano exploding in the middle of a meteor flying through a hurricane.

The time currents of time were pushed back by the wave of energy as the dragon rapidly fell into the depths of the well below him.

Every single cell of his body bathed in energy as they transformed into the new stage.

'Now is my chance. The time is already turbulent. Now or never.' A giant sphere of magic arrays rotated around the dragon before it exploded and sent a tsunami through time, pushing it away from him.

For a split second, all that remained was darkness, mana, and void.

'Space is unstable, chaotic, and convoluted, but I have to risk it. I am a dragon, as long I don't teleport into a black hole or a star I will live.'

The liquified time roared down, filling the void again and closing on the dragon to submerge him in its casket.

A portal lit up before the dragon, pulsing with ripples passing through its pitch-black surface that sucked in all the remaining light.

Without delay, the dragon flapped his wings and dived straight into it.

The space vibrated again, and everything around him changed into a spinning space vortex. Energy flowed around him, burning and melting his armour as he dived deeper and deeper into the darkness.

No matter how much he tried to stir it, he couldn't direct it as if he rafted on the wildest river, 'I should be already out. Where is this portal going?'

Without warning, something hit the dragon and sent a wave through the spacetime. The vortex shifted, prolonged, and warped, stretching far, far away.

The next moment a bright glow blinded him, and fresh air entered his nostrils. The heat of three suns baked on his partially disintegrated armor.

A desert stretched from one horizon to another, the endless peaks of sterile, white sand reflecting the light of the three suns and turning the entire world into an enormous oven.

The dragon hovered above the dunes, each flap of his vast wings sending waves of sand.

'Oh no. This doesn't look like Lorenia or even Earth. That thing affected my portal... It had to drag me here.'

It was the exact definition of jumping from mud into a puddle.

However, Vesuvius remained calm as he felt the connection with his divine kingdom not only renew but grow stronger than ever before.

'With my amount of energy, opening a portal back home through my divine kingdom or using my bloodline connections with my minions as a navigation beacon should be an easy matter.'

The tiredness and weakness spread through his mind and body. His cells were saturated with energy, and his soul and body matured enough. He was finally ready to become an elder dragon. An existence feared by everyone. An existence respected by all of the dragon kind.

'This and the upcoming metamorphosis should be enough to propel my power into unprecedented height.'

Vesuvius slowly glided down. He wanted to open the portal and escape, but he couldn't, as all his energy was sucked to fuel his transformation, and he could no longer hold it back.

He had to break through right there and right then or face the consequences.

In the meantime, in the main world:

The man kneeled on the polished black floor of a giant temple below a shiny dragon statue. His heart was loudly pounding with anticipation as his vision gradually darkened.

The next moment his consciousness floated in the vast white space.

Two bodies levitated there without any support. One was the armoured bipedal draconic monstrosity, and the second was his humanoid form.

He desperately looked through all the options and possibilities before his eyes. He felt overwhelmed just at all the combinations of powers he could make.

'Is this normal? How is this game? It feels more like a science to me.'

(AN: Haha, if you played POE, then you will understand this :D Anyway, please let me know in the paragraph how I should handle the evolutions of non-MC characters. Should I do it similarly to MC or just skim over it?)

Suddenly a terrifying presence fell upon the entirely white space. The interface was blurred under the white noise and granularised.

Two sun-sized, golden eyes opened on the white sky, staring straight down at him.

He would fall on his knees if he had a body from the sheer pressure that threatened to compress his soul into a small marble.

'This...' Something deep within his blood and soul reacted to the aura, making him press his metaphorical head against the metaphorical white floor.

"Good, the minion of my blood, you still carry the instinct." The wave of aura carrying the might of stars slammed his soul like a giant sledgehammer.

He gripped the remains of his consciousness and held it, refusing to give up.

"You have a resilient mind and a body carrying my blood, yet your soul remains that of a feeble human. Your master needs stronger vassals, I know his plans and the danger of them."

The pressure subsided, but the aura remained, stopping him from looking up out of fear and respect.

'Is this the boss of the boss?' He heard about the dragon god, but he never even dreamed about the possibility of speaking to such a legendary existence.
