The Wise Dragon

After killing the skeletal dragon and teleporting it to the dark forest, Michael, Gaya, and Nightmare resumed their journey without a destination. They roamed around the misty island aimlessly, killing whatever comes in their way. Unfortunately for Michael, he didn't get to kill anything stronger than a Core Strengthening stage being. He didn't even bother to raise a finger as he let Nightmare get some battle experience. It was time Nightmare forged his own path under Michael's watchful eyes. After all, Nightmare was no longer a child that needed to be taken care of. He had reached the Core Strengthening stage/ The only weakness Michael saw in Nightmare was his kindness. Unfortunately, it often made Nightmare look weak rather than kind. Although Nightmare seemed to be supporting Michael in his thoughts to destroy Thusia, Michael knew Nightmare wanted to avoid all the bloodshed.
