The Dreamers Meeting.

With Ophis' help, his time formation in his room turned one day in the real world into a full year in his room. The two hearts in his body only beat once every 5 minutes and he only breathed once during the same time.

He had truly entered a deep state of hibernation which began to take its magical effect. Maulketh did not know it, but his soul, mana pathways, and body had minor injuries as he had evolved several times in a short span of time.

An evolution was meant to last a monster or dragon several decades at least, but he had gone through at least 4 in that time. He felt at his peak, but in reality, his bloodline and body were stressed to the extreme.

His last stunt of implementing a second heart into his body could have been his last. And in his deep slumber, his body finally had the chance to rest without being forced to undergo torture, training, or evolution.

It was finally at rest and allowed to mature as it was intended to. Years began to slip by as he Hibernated with his body, soul, and spirit all maturing and recovering through the years. The blessing of Ares, Ophis, and Void all three worked as one to ensure his sleep was deep and useful.

50 years passed by in his slumber which had given his bloodline the time it needed to mature as dragons were meant to. His power was rising year by year which caused his soul and mental abilities to increase.

Maulketh began to actually train inside of his subconsciousness. His mind was truly asleep so he was training while hibernating. That was just how obsessed with training that he even found a way to train in his sleep.

In this way, another 50 years passed until a full century had passed in his hibernation yet he was not waking up. Deep in his subconscious, Maulketh in a sleepwalking state fought hundreds of foes in his dragon form.

He considered this form his true form as most dragons did. His eyes were closed as enemies attacked him from all sides yet he still fought tooth and nail with all his abilities. His desire to train had created this situation through his Principle which had begun to take effect in ways to aid him.

Here he fought Evil Dragons, Phoniexes, Angels, Devils, Yoaki, Oni, monsters, Titans, and Demons, which never stopped attacking his mind. Here is his subconscious, he was fighting a war without end.

As he fought foes that would have broken the world in his mind he began to hear something in the distance in his battle. At first, it was just a sound among the myriads of roars of the beasts and warriors he fought which he promptly ignored.

He responded with a fire breath that brought fire to the worldwide battlefield in his mind. His Principle of Tyranny took his desire to train by allowing him to keep fighting even in his subconscious state.

He fought them with fire, claw, fang, horn, tail, and all the weapons he had on hand. He kept slaughtering creatures that would have brought ruin to worlds not allowing himself a moment of weakness.

Yet as he tore an Evil Dragon in half with his poison-coated tail blade, he heard that sound once more. This time it was more clear, which sounded like singing. His foes and he stopped at that moment, but once more he returned to the fight.

When he started to fight, his foes began to fight once more as they were created through his subconscious desire to keep training. Though the ferocity at which he and his foes tore at each other only increased once more.

Maulketh raised his back legs as his front limbs were covered in rolling waves of Time and Space magic. He brought them down at full force causing an eruption of both to sweep through his foes killing them all.

Yet in that same instant, they merely reformed and just as he was going to dive into the battle again, the singing got even louder. It caused him to instantly calm himself causing his foes to vanish. He began to follow the singing which got louder and louder and drew him toward it.

Great Red as the Dragon of Dreams had felt both their dreams and decided to aid Maulketh and the singer in one go. He felt they both would benefit from the meeting so he used his power to allow them to share the same dream.

Maulketh opened his eyes for the first time in a century as consciousness returned to his mind. He shook his head and looked out where he found himself. It was a giant beach with an even bigger ocean.

The dream he found himself in was not his own as his dream was full of combat. Somewhere the Dragon of Tyrrany thrived, but this felt peaceful. He walked toward the ocean with his mass causing the beach to shake.

He found only one being in this place which was a light purple-haired girl who was standing in the water. She was singing a song that lulled him closer into a more relaxed state. She did not stop her song even when a massive shadow overtook her.

Maulketh lay down at the beach to listen to her song about her desire to see the sea. When she finally stopped singing she turned around and met her eyes with Maulketh. He expected fear, terror, or something along those lines but he saw nothing of the sort.

She walked up to him and sat down in front of him.

"You do not fear me."

She shook her head as she looked up to get a look at his full body.

"I do not."

He rolled to his side like a lazy cat as her song lulled him into a truly relaxed state. He could still kill her at any moment still, but he had truly relaxed now.

"I just know you won't. But how did you enter my dream?"

"I don't know, might be that I am currently dreaming as well. How do you know you are dreaming is my question?"

The girl turned around and took in the big sea.

"I am an Inglidid Leviathan, a descendent of the original Leviathan and a human. Though when I was young I began to exhibit symptoms of Slee Disease. This is the first time I have been conscious you see.

I don't know how, but I think you did this."

She walked over to his face and sat against his scales. His giant eye looked down at her as she did this.

"That must be hard on you. As for me, I have been in deep hibernation for the past century. I believe that as we both were in a deep slumber, my dream of battle and your desire linked up allowing us to meet here in your dream.

I am Maulketh Imperator Tempus, The Dragon Emperor of Tyranny."

Hearing that made her laugh.

"You don't seem very Tyrannical. You seem kind."

Hearing that made him go silent. Hearing that made her apologize.

"WAIT! I AM SO SORRY! I mean, you for sure are the most tyrannical and vicious of dragon kind. I mean it."

Maulketh began to chuckle.

"You are quite cute."

Her face turned a little red at the compliment.

"Thank you."

For a while, they did not speak more and just looked out to the great sea. The silence was broken by Ingvild.

"Can you tell me about that dream you were having? You said it was a battle, wouldn't that be a nightmare and not a dream?"

"Not to a dragon. We dragons reveal in combat, we live for it. I am unique as during my hibernation I began to crave a battle so my mind gave me one. I fought Evil Dragons, Demons, Humans, Devils, Angels, Yokai, and countless monsters unknown to me. Yet even in my sleeping state I still fought. And I felt pure joy during my fight.

Yet when our dreams began to connect, your song actually calmed my drive for battle. I became interested in your song until I found myself in your dream. One the total opposite of mine."

He looked through her carefully until he discovered the issue.

"I see, your Sacred Gear and your bloodline as a Leviathan are truly made for the other. Your Sacred Gear is trying to evolve by using up your power as a descendent of the original Leviathan."

She did not know she had Sacred Gear.

"That is why I can't wake up?"

"Yes. As it stands your Sacred Gear is in the process of evolving into a Longinous, but it causes a big stress on your body and soul. So your Sleep Disease is caused by it so your body is not harmed during its evolution. But, with my help, I bet I can help you evolve it faster."

She stood up and looked into his blazing-slitted eyes.

"Can you help me wake up?"

He sat up and nodded.

"I can, but I would want something in exchange."

When she heard this she looked down.

"I have no money though or gold. And Dragons love gold. I don't think I can pay you Maulketh."

He laughed as he returned to his human form in a flash of light. Ingvild closed her eyes at the light, but when she opened them she saw that the dragon was gone. It was replaced with his human form which was still big, but when compared to his dragon form it was small.

He walked toward her and kneeled down to get at eye level with her. He took one of her hands as he brought out his charms. Once more he found a woman he wanted for himself. She was the one in his dreams as that was how they had met.

"You would have no need to pay me. All I ask is that you stay at my side and sing for me. Your Sacred Gear is linked to Dragons which is why I think we were drawn to each other. Would you, do me that honor?"

Her face turned bright red as she looked into his eyes. His facial features were sharp, and handsome, and seemed to match his Dragon Ones. She smiled and kneeled down with him and wrapped her arms around him in a big hug.

"I would be happy to sing for you any time you asked. If my song calms you, I shall be there to ensure no one can ruin your mood. But, how will you bring me out of the Underworld."

Maulleth stood up and picked her up in a princess carry, his personal favorite.

"Well, I am awake now."

He leaned in and took a big small off her purple hair making her cover her face.

"And now I have your scent. I shall wake up in short order. I have slept enough, it is time for us to wake up in the real world. I will show you the greatest seas the universe has to offer if you shall let me."

She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close.

"It is a promise."

With that said, she kissed his lips in a very sweet manner, but their dream ended with their kiss. Maulketh's mind returned to his body which caused both his Dragon Hearts to begin to beat with power. Their production of Mana shot through the roof as the powerful energy flowed through his blood.

His mana began to course through his mana pathways as his body began to heat up as his metabolism rose up to those crazy levels he had when awake. A massive surge of Dragon Mana and Aura surged from his body as he opened his eyes.

Ddraig and Albion both awoke along with him as they had both been also growing stronger through his hibernation. Their power flowed through his body as his bloodline had fully assimilated their powers.

He raised himself off the bed after a century of hibernation. He got up as his sleeping clothes returned to his usual biker clothing. He placed his sunglasses on his face as he stood at his full height of 7 feet.

He took a big breath of air as he got the scent of Ingvild, someone he has marked as his own. He then teleported into the Underworld to recover Inglivid.

((I almost forgot that his Volcano itself has a Time Formation. He is in a Time Formation, inside a Time Formation. A year in his Room is a day in his volcano which is less than 3 hours in the real world. I love Time Formations. And I might as well go for the full 7 feet than 6'11)
