It was only now, while watching the ‘unborn’ son of Agnis soar off like a bullet ricocheting off anything in its path left destroyed, that the Green Prince felt something on its majestic snout. Something he had never felt before; an imperfection.

In disbelief his eyes widened and he reached up with one claw hoping that the sense of touch would prove himself wrong, only to be disappointed. And this was not one who was known to such a thing as disappointments aside from being inferior to but two in his realm, but when it did hit him it turned the Emerald Prince absolutely ballistic.

Like thunder he roared while eyes emitted a green glow of potent chakra and nostrils flared equally intense green flames. “HOW DARE YOU SCAR ME!”

Even from this distance the Dragon looked in Keldrans direction as if able to see him even now, and it looked like he was about to fly after the Fuma in order to finish the job, but it was then, in that crucial moment where Keldran’s death was as good as decided to happen by the infuriated mythical beast, that something else managed to draw his attention.

Now, drawing his attention wouldn’t have been an easy feat normally, let alone now it bore such overwhelming anger to Keldran for scarring his unblemished scales. But since Mugen did the one thing that made the Prince even angrier than disappointments made him, the Dragon’s attention shifted in an instant.

There, 50 yards below him, was the boy whom was swatted away life a fly moments ago. The boy who, to the Dragon, carried as much value as a cow or sheep; a small snack. The boy who the Dragon would’ve absolutely ignored were it not for the fact that Mugen called the beast of legend out on the one thing that angered him most. T was vanity that showed clearly within the anger radiating from the Prince who turned his gaze down upon the ascending Jugo.

“You… Mortal. Dare invoke such words regarding I, who appears MORE BRILLIANT THAN THE SUN! YOU DARE SAY ME MEDIOCRE? THESE WILL BE YOUR LAST WORDS. YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM THIS WORLD AS PAYMENT FOR YOUR INSOLENCE. BUT FOR THE SIN OF HAVING SPOKEN AGAINST ME IN DECIEVEMENT....”

Mugen was now but 10 yards away.

NOW,  PERISH!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">At these last words the Dragon exhaled such a large wave of fire that, to Mugen, it would seem like the very heavens themselves were consumed by them. Everywhere he’d look above there’d be nothing but the fire rushing down to meet him while covering a stunning 30 yard radius that had Mugen at the center. They came down fast, boosted in speed by the ear-deafening roar escaping the Dragon’s throat that drove the flames forth with the power of a shockwave capable of tearing the ground apart.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">The last thing Mugen would see, would be a pair of Green eyes appearing amidst the huge wave of fire that coiled around him aiming to roast every single inch of his being; leaving nothing to fall down but a pile of inches. Even the Jugo’s soul was to be claimed by these unique flames that completely eradicated what they left dead. The Green eyes, would then turn blue, resembling Keldran’s. And Mugen would hear a voice he didn’t recognize, a voice majestic like it belonged to the sun itself.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">Meanwhile the bold hero was disintegrating completely but for some reason the process was completely painless, even when Mugen could notice his actual soul being stripped away he would not feel pain. It was as if this voice game Mugen the strength to overcome fear of death and anything that came with it. Furthermore this voice seemed to make time itself wait for what it had to say as Mugen’s consciousness would hear it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">“I, Agnis, am forever in your debt for saving my son. As such I will save your soul from the abyss my brother has forsaken it to. Alas the power of the Phoenix I have not so your life I cannot save. But your ashes I will take to my Son, and your soul I will guide to the place of light and love where all good souls go.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">It was then that the remnants of Mugen would be enveloped by a red flame that grew within the massive wave of green fire that the prince continued to spew out of mere anger. This small, red, flame proved of such potency that it remained unharmed as it was the mythical red flame of Agnis.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">It shot out of the green flames and travelled down and away while something happened within it as a white core of light grew and shrunk in an instant before revealing a beautiful urn engraved by Kanji markings that spoke of a hero who helped an ancient prophecy come closer to fulfillment. The Urn was created from the very flames that yet lingered around it, manifested by the will of Agnis who had also protected Mugen’s soul from the intents of his vain brother.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">The Urn which travelled at immense speeds flew past Keldran and Saphira before it crashed into the ground not far away; a tendril of red smoke escaping from it signaling the involvement of Agnis which Saphira would surely notice. Upon closer inspection the urn was found to still be intact, but more than that, beside it stood the soul of Mugen as if the universe had granted him a moment to share his last words with Keldran. Keldran, in turn, would feel his heart heating up the same way as when he borrowed the power of Agnis; allowing him to wake up for this  special, yet heart wrenching, moment. But after the soul of Mugen would pass on, so would Keldran drift back into unconsciousness. If Keldran hadn’t grabbed the urn, Saphira would not forget it as she shed a tear for the brave Mugen who had also saved her life with his selfless heroics.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">She’d then fly off just as the morning sun arose, however she didn’t head to the one tall mountain from which the red smoke grew. Instead she flew east of it, although not too far from the base of the ‘Mountain of the Red King’, as she was instinctively heading to the closest place where Mugen could find care while consciously knowing that it wouldn’t be smart to deliver Keldran to where he was heading, the reason why he came to this realm.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:15.6pt;border-width:initial;border-style:none;padding:0in;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";mso-fareast-font-family: "TimesNewRoman"">“With your body like that I can’t take you to my father. You need every bit of your strength to be strong enough to stand in the presence of he they call Agnis.” She’d muse to him as they flew down to what looked like an abandoned outpost where they were awaited by a waving figure who was yet too far away to be identified a anything but a shadowy image.
