Dragon Medallion

"You've come," the Emperor looked at Alex as he walked in.

"Yes," Alex said. "I was just about to leave to roam the city when your message got to me. Have you finally decided what to give me?"

"Yes," the Dragon Emperor said and handed over something to Alex

Alex took the object and saw that it was a medallion made up of some sort of strong metal that looked a lot like silver. On the medallion was the emblem of the Azure Imperium, a single sword with the azure dragon coiling around it.

Alex poured some Qi into it, but nothing seemed to happen to it. "What is this?" he asked curiously.

"It's a Dragon Medallion," the Emperor said. "It gives you the highest authority in the continent aside from the Emperor and the Crown Prince, making you effectively the 3rd most important person."

Alex was a little surprised. "And you're giving this to me? In exchange for the pill?" he asked.
