POV Vesuvius:
The moment the dragon crossed the portal, the familiar heat of his divine kingdom washed over his scales and armour.

Instantly notifications accompanied by the dings flooded his vision, bringing the feeling of relief together with them.

Reward: 2 X Instant Level UP; 1 X Orb of Time; 5 X Sacrificial Respec Voucher; 1 X Chronvenom; Contact the quest-giver for the rest of your rewards
//
'Rating E?!!! Are... well. I guess it makes sense. It took me so long to complete, and I had help.' He was even surprised by how valuable the rewards were, even with such a bad rating. This made him feel regret as he imagined the potentially unimaginable rewards he would get with a higher rating.
'Sacrificial vouchers... they will surely be useful during metamorphosis.'
More dings interrupted his thoughts.

Your complaint to the administrator is in the queue.
Current spot: #152

'As for the queue, I guess with the number of complaints there is nothing to complain.'
The dragon turned at the shivering and shuddering pile of aliens in their space suits piled on the island.
Ultimately, he shook his head, 'I just need someone to slowly talk with them and establish vocabulary, then I can learn it.'
The announcements didn't stop as more and more text flashed before his eyes, making him turn his attention away from them.

You have learned a new ability: Time Magic (LV 0)

'Hohoho, does this mean that I can level it up? I hope you are not going to screw me up again, system.'
Ding!

Some of your abilities were changed:
//
'Double stats? No wonder I felt so powerful when I destroyed the spaceships. That is a huge boost. Even if the official rewards were only E-rated I still got a large haul of that dungeon.'

<<Lordly Dragon Domain - (Catastrophe - incomplete) (LV 8)>> --> <<Lordly Dragon Elder Domain - (Catastrophe - incomplete) (LV 10)>>:
The domain of an elder dragon lord reached its next stage, increasing its precision and raw power.
The domain is now almost fully integrated with the dragon's body, allowing every element belonging to its domain to act like cells of the dragon's body, changing its properties while making it more stable and easier to control.
Buffs and debuffs from abilities or stats to the dragon's body will now affect the domain and elements and materials contained within it.
Everything within the domain belonging to the dragon's affinities and under their control can be used as a medium for spells or abilities normally using the dragon's body.
//
'Wait! So this is why I felt that each grain of sand was almost like the cells of my body. Also, no wonder it could simply deflect the orbital strike with such ease.'
Vesuvius knew his defense stat skyrocketed when he became an elder dragon, and when it applied all the resistance to sand and air, it turned them into titanium-like material.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf before his domain allowed him to control elements around him, now he could imbue them with supernatural powers and turn them into something much more dangerous.

Dragon Lord's Voice of Soul (LV 17) --> Dragon Lord's Divine Voice (LV 17):
The voice of the dragon lord that has awakened with the wisdom of age and gained the power to change words into reality. It preserves all its old effects while awakening the power to warp reality with words.
The effects will scale in dependency on the target's resistances and power, the presence of relevant affinities and authorities, the used amount of mana and divine energy, and similarity with the reality or synergy with other powers.
//
'Ohhh, I saw this one! It is that power that the purity angel used! The description is a bit cryptic and has many variables, but it is definitely it!' The dragon witnessed this power on his own scales and was excited to have it too.
'Now that I think about it all balance races have a common set of power shared between them all. Their inner worlds, domains, and this voice. Furthermore, there must be even more of them.'
Ding!
//
<<Incomplete Divine Kingdom (LV 3) - (Catastrophe - incomplete)>> --> <<Awakened Incomplete Divine Kingdom (LV 5) - (Catastrophe - incomplete)>>:
(New:) You can use your divine kingdom to store raw mana
(New:) Effects of the magic voice of dragons will be empowered within the divine kingdom.
(New:) You can create and manipulate rules within your divine kingdom. The created rules will actively consume mana and divine energy to maintain them,
Their upkeep cost will differ based on the effects.
The stronger the intruder, the less affected they would be
//
'Hmm, this will make my divine kingdom even more terrifying. I didn't see that angel use this... but they weren't lord equivalent.'
Ding!

//
The dragon felt ready for his offensive with his new power and the upcoming metamorphosis.
But then he pushed back his silly thought when he remembered the terrific power of the reaper, 'No, I need a little bit more time to solidify my gains. By rushing into battle and dying I will accomplish nothing. Time is on my side, literally.'
