The Castle, the Dragon Lord Realm and Heading Out
2 months later
Yawn!
"That was a long nap, but one that is worth it." Sargon got up from the bed as he stretched and unsummoned it back to its place. During the 2 long months, he had been inside his mind receiving every book into his mind. So within his head was a mini library, anything he wants to know from the library he will instantly know.
But not anyone can just sleep straight through 2 months, other than a being that can sustain itself or go into a deep sleep like dragons. Otherwise, they would die from hunger and starvation.
"Eh, speaking of starvation. I haven't eaten anything in almost 500 years. Hopefully, I can whip myself something from the kitchen." Having made that plan Dominic walked out of the library doors and headed for the kitchen, even if he had seen its designs and positions. It was more like a schematic design at that time as he didn't bother to look deeper because now he was very speechless at how beautiful it looked.
The kitchen looked very much like a wet dream of a French chef, without a spot of dirt or dust. It was fitted with every electronic and non-electronic kitchen equipment from his earth that he could think of there were also other items such as all manner of dishes too. Plus, the color theme made it seem comfortable as well as professional.
"Alright what can I make for myself? I am feeling a burger, steak, and some fries." Dominic then changed his clothes with a snap of his fingers and got himself a black apron with a chibi dragon with words that were written 'Kiss the Chef', and dug in the fridge to begin his quest to fill his belly.
Food was in abundance in this world, there were gardens that worked automatically with magic to make fresh produce from the moment he had accepted the crystal. The meat was easy too, as on the ground below ran all manner of animals that would magically be killed and turned into any kind of meat he desired at any given moment.
The thing was that the food here was incredulously healthy and nourishing to anyone, for Dominic, it didn't matter considering what kind of being he was.
The electronic devices worked lightning magic runes, water as well everything in this place. So there were no water and electricity bills at the end of each month.
Not that he would have a problem with that either, as the amount of wealth in his vaults were mountains upon mountains of gold, gems, and other valuable minerals and resources from the earth. Thought for a being that lived in the infinite void this was nothing but the small wealth that could be earned back in no time at all just by passing a small planet and shaking it down a little to make it cough up its resources like a piggy bank.
Jokes aside, Dominic spent a couple of hours making his food.
At times he would use the knowledge in his head to find the best ways to make it tastier for him. As there were cooking books in the library, not to mention that with his body he was stronger in every possible way that he could smell and smell way better than before and control his body better.
After he was done cooking, the food was almost enough to feed dozens of people, and still have leftovers. But he was able to devour his food with regal grace as well as the ravenousness of a savage making it a strange contrast that would amaze anyone.
He directly ate in the kitchen by summoning a table large enough to hold everything.
"That hit the spot, I will lounge around a bit as I give myself a personal tour of my palace." With a snap, the dirty dishes vanished along with his apron. He stuck with the robe instead and walked into the dining room first as it was closer to the kitchen.
The first thing Sargon noticed as he entered the dining room was the large beautiful chandelier with gorgeous clear crystals that shone a soft warm light below the massive room from the ceiling. A nice comfortable fireplace adorned the left wall with a long table that sat gracefully in the center and grand windows to the right.
"Beautiful, I can picture having meals here with a large family that I will soon have in this place." With that, he continued and exited from another door opposite the one he had entered from.
This was the ballroom, it too had a chandelier but this one was bigger than the dining room. It was also different as it had beautiful soft blue glowing crystals on it. The room itself was large and could host hundreds of people without any problem whatsoever.
"Magnificent, a good party can be held here well." Smiled Dominic before continuing.
Next, he visited what seemed like a conference room, it had a large round table at the center with multiple chairs around it this made Dominic wonder why it was even here but chalked it up to the fact that it was perhaps built for it to fit the palace or maybe when he was hosting a meeting with anyone that he might want to bring in here.
Though that was unlikely, continuing on in the long hallway that had a couple of doors this was the guest wing.
Then there was the entertainment room, with a nice long couch and comfy recliners, a table full of board games that ranged from chess, checkers, and others. There were other things for entertainment such as arcade machines, pool and foosball tables, and finally a nice bar with a selection of alcohol. But there was something more, he opened a door close by and entered a music room that was filled with various instruments, to his surprise there was also a recording studio.
"Alright, it's official. This place is awesome!" He smiled as he headed for another stop. The master bedroom had a nice little chandelier over it, a large four-poster bed, a lounge couch to the side, a coffee table along with a chair, and dozens or fewer mirrors. Along with a sweet-looking footrest with a lit fireplace and a lovely ornate rug.
"This looks divinely comfortable that I want to give myself another month-long nap on that bed. But am not done yet with my tour, not to mention I have to get training and reach the Lord realm so then leave to see the world outside my realm." He then left his sleeping chamber directly after that and headed for the last place within the palace wall, the throne room.
It was majestic, to say the least, with grand windows behind the throne that was large and stunning, as it was gold and black with shades of blue. Which was the main theme of the room, it had a solemn yet regal air. Sitting on his throne with a comfortable and content look, Dominic could help but chuckle.
"At least it is comfy, by why though as I have no subjects nor need of any to rule, maybe it is to complete the look of the palace I guess. Oh well, time for the last stop." He then vanished from his seat and reappeared in an arena and training grounds of some sort. For that he had to exit the palace, so he teleported there directly.
The training arena had two parts, one for indoor training, with modern training equipment and more such as gravity and anti-gravity chambers. There were weights of various sizes and ranges, he knew all these would be helpful to him before he reached the Ancestral realm.
The other part was the outdoors, it was also the arena, though he also wondered why he might need it, it could be controlled to change its terrain and weather. There were stands like that of a stadium for the audience, forming a ring-like shape.
"Now that I think about it, these things are probably prepared for each path that I might take. There are paths to being a king or this arena for being a warrior or fighter. Time to get to work and find out as there are no use playing guessing games!"

1 and a half months later
Boom!
There was a large cloud of smoke where the attack landed and when it cleared it revealed a 10m wide crater that was 3m deep, the ground had turned to glass due to the heat of the attack.
"Huu! That went well, making the end of my last practice until next time." Dominic gazed at his work with satisfaction, he had taken a liking to robes since his time here so he currently wore a red and black robe that was opened around his chest and black boots with red designs, he hadn't changed much physical wise, but the air about him had changed greatly.
If one stared long enough at his form they would see that the air was distorting about him gently with each movement increasing the regal and dominant air about him.
"Dragon Lord realm is very powerful, finally giving me access to magic and spells even if they are low leveled compared to the ones I can later wield. Though I can't perform powerful ones that can wipe out a planet in an instant yet, it is enough to take a small country off the map in moments. However, I can barely feel the growth." When he was in his Wyvern realm he could feel the growth each day, even if he didn't train he would have reached the peak and entered the Lord realm within a year just by eating and sleeping. Now, however, he doubted that he would feel a thing even in a thousand years of doing nothing.
"Guess it is time to get out of here and explore my 'neighborhood', hopefully, there would be pleasant surprises." With that, he vanished.
