Ryu took a long-awaited nap in his Dragon form.
After everything that had happened, he decided to spend the rest of the day resting. His daily Self Fusions had already been used up, so there was nothing urgent left to do except eat, relax, and sleep.
Though a part of him was curious about the world's history and wanted to explore the books stacked neatly on the shelf, but he postponed it. Because his body needed rest more than his mind did.
As the soft glow of the magical lamp filled the quiet room, a peaceful warmth settled over him. Ryu lay on the simple but comfortable bed, and within minutes, he drifted into sleep, his breathing steady and calm.
Meanwhile, in the other room, Grakar diligently cleaned the house with an intensity that could rival a veteran butler. He scrubbed the stone floors until they shine, humming some strange monster melody under his breath.
