Chapter 560: Dragon God Tamer
-----
Ding!
[You\'ve made a contract with a [Dragon God of Sea Ryujin]!]
[You acquired the [Dragon God of Sea Mark]!]
[You gained the [Dragon God Tamer] Title!]
[Your bond with your [Dragon God of Sea Ryujin] is growing at a steady pace!]
[The oceans smile upon you!]
"…"
Frank looked at his own System as he noticed the notifications. He had just accidentally contracted with a Dragon God of Sea, or well, the little dragon god of sea that would one day become the true dragon god of sea of Japan, Ryujin.
The little sea snake-like dragon swam around the air while being coated in crystalline waters. It looked cute and not terrifying nor domineering as these creatures usually are.
"Groar!" it said, licking his face as its crystalline scales shone brightly as if they were made of reflective glass or something.
"So you\'re telling me this little thing is a god?" asked Frank in shock.
It was already the next day after the tournament, and Frank had gone to the Monk Clan to have a special meeting with Kaguya and the other Elders, alongside Matsuo and his family, who were all knowledgeable about Japanese mythology and the Gods of this country.
"I can\'t believe it, it is an authentic Dragon God of Sea…!"
"Impressive…"
"It is small, yet its very presence transcends divinity!"
"Those scales shine with the brightness of the sea!"
"It\'s very aura is like the oceans themselves too!"
"How beautiful, how wondrous!"
The Elders of the Monk Clan were left mostly all speechless as they saw the little dragon swim around the air. This mysterious creature, although it looked like a simple dragon monster that Frank had seen before many times, was a very important creature to Japan.
"Indeed, Frank… What the Walker… The Walker gifted you the child that Ryujin, the original God of Japan… left behind before dying, the egg of the next Dragon God of the Oceans of Japan… our protector from the calamities of the sea." Said Kaguya.
"I-It is very shocking, I never expected he would simply gift me something so important- I mean, someone so important." Said Frank.
"Graaa!"
The cute little dragon suddenly sat down over Frank\'s crossed legs, closing its eyes and cuddling over them, sleeping peacefully.
"Amazing, it is so attached to you so quickly…"
"Well, he\'s the Source, what did you expect?"
"After all, all the essence of the world lies within him, perhaps that\'s why he\'s so attractive to the young god…"
"Kami-sama… Please grow strong and healthy!"
The old men were praying to the little creature as if their entire future depended on him.
"I am also shocked. To begin with, the Walker… he spoke to you about other things, right?" asked Kaguya.
"Yes…"
Frank began to quickly recall their talk. The Walker had told Frank about the future ahead and that he had to grow as strong as possible. He had also mentioned that when the Chaos Gate were to attack Tokyo as it was foreseen, he would show up to help out a bit.
"So he will come to help…! T-Those are wonderful news… With the help of the Shogun, we might really pull out a victory then…" sighed Kaguya.
"You\'re very confident with that old homeless man, aren\'t you?" sighed Frank.
"Frank, that\'s obvious, that old homeless man is just the strongest man alive in Japan!" said Matsuo.
"I\'ll surpass him eventually." Said Frank.
"You\'re getting awfully cocky out of nowhere…" said Hiromi. She had also been invited, alongside Clementine. These two were the new official allies of Frank in this powerful Clan Alliance that was forged through battles, so they were invited here as well.
"Frank, I understand how you might feel. It is very frustrating to know that an old homeless man is stronger than us… And even then, I believe he still wouldn\'t be able to damage my body! But even then, it is a fact that he\'s the strongest because he\'s the Shogun." Said Clementine.
"You talk about Shoguns as if they were common sense, you barely introduced them to me back then…" sighed Frank.
"Well, let me reintroduce them to you then… And hear me right this time… The Walker is the strongest, he\'s the guy we all know and love, he\'s a gentle homeless man… I\'ve heard he sometimes goes around buying alcohol and walks all around Japan without stopping. He uses time and space magic of incredible mastery to bend the fabric of spacetime to his will… additionally, you already confronted him back then, right? I\'ve never meet him in person, but you said that… he has an aura so immense it is like the heavens themselves, right?" asked Matsuo.
Frank sighed, gritting his teeth. He couldn\'t believe how powerless he felt in front of such a simple man, but it was right. This man… The Walker, was incredibly admirable in power alone. His entire Aura, which exuded immense quantities of pure divinity, was as vast as the heavens, something he could not easily fathom.
However, he had not an aura of threatening, nor of bloodthirst or a murderous aura. This man\'s immensity and vastness was like a welcoming hug. Such gentleness, harmony, and peacefulness… Frank felt overwhelmed, but not threatened.
"Yes… I recall him. He was… just like that. But I couldn\'t feel any murderous aura from him." said Frank.
"Hm, The Walker is a good man, it is widely known that he does good deeds sometimes, and he often beats organizations that threaten Japan by himself. Like the other time when we told you he rescued this little Ryujin from the Chaos Gate agents that were trying to capture him, right? He protects anything in Japan from outside threats, although they have to threaten more than just one person or a group of people for him to act… we are talking about national level stuff." Said Matsuo.
"I see… So that\'s why with all the power he had he didn\'t helped me when my family got slaughtered by Wasp? I see… I was just not important enough, huh?" sighed Frank.
"Frank…" sighed Hiromi.
