The long-dried Primeval Flame within Odeclass was voraciously transforming these fire energies and yearning for even more flames.
In the end, Odeclass abandoned all pretense of restraint and fully indulged in this feast of flames!
Odeclass restored his dragon form, and his entire body was enveloped by the energy released from the Fire Transmission Stone, as if he was soaking in an ocean of fire.
This comfort made Odeclass’s mind even conjure up the world from the legends, aflame with the blazing Primeval Flame.
Angel stood by, silently waiting.
By now, with the scent of flames permeating the air, Angel was quite certain that the Fire Transmission Stone was indeed successful.
The apprehension in his heart finally subsided.
…
Two hours later, a very satisfied Odeclass transformed back into human form, placed the Fire Transmission Stone in the Fire Crystal Mine to absorb and purify Fire Elements, and then took Angel back to the Ice Crystal Palace.
Odeclass stood beneath the mural and didn’t speak immediately, but instead looked at Angel with a gaze full of profound meaning.
Angel’s performance had exceeded his expectations.
If Popota was to him an insignificant human, then Angel, prior to this, was just a step above “insignificant”, a slightly interesting human.
But after this incident, Angel’s status in Odeclass’s heart soared dramatically.
Almost on par with Feng.
If Feng’s painting offered the possibility of Binaqionse’s resurrection, Angel’s Fire Transmission Stone gave Odeclass a further opportunity.
After a long while, Odeclass finally withdrew his gaze and said to Angel indifferently, “You did well, you kept your promise.”
After a pause, Odeclass continued with a serious tone, “Human, you may have my friendship.”
Angel bowed slightly, “It is my honor.”
Before this, Angel had learned from Fafnir that Odeclass had once declared: whoever brought him a complete Fire Transmission Stone would gain his friendship.
However, the Fire Transmission Stone was so rare that the promise had only been fulfilled with the arrival of Angel.
Hence, Angel was not surprised by Odeclass’s statement.
In any case, gaining the friendship of an Abyssal Dragon meant a lot to Angel. But more than a mere nominal friendship, what Angel actually cared about more was—
“Lord Odeclass, about the curse that Toby has contracted…”
Odeclass nodded, “Of course, I haven’t forgotten, but to remove the Calamity Curse, I need to wait until my strength has recovered to a certain level.”
Odeclass briefly explained his situation.
Only then did Angel understand that Odeclass’s initial reluctance to remove Toby’s curse without finding the Fire Transmission Stone was not without reason.
Odeclass’s strength had been compromised due to years in the Ice Valley. He needed to recover to a certain level before he could lift the Calamity Curse.
Previously, Odeclass didn’t want to and couldn’t be bothered to explain these nuances. Now that he was offering Angel his friendship, he did not hesitate to share these intricacies with him.
Angel could sense that although Odeclass’s expression remained unchanged, the previous alienation and aloofness when facing him were gradually disappearing.
“I understand, may I know how long it would take?”
