The Medallion

"Different forms?" As though something crossed his mind, Rocky's eyes narrowed at the enchanted barrier that had appeared when the spiritual shadow collided it. Then, he gently pressed his palm against its center.

All of a sudden, with Rocky's palm at its center, spiritual power rippled outward like waves. Gradually, the ripples spread across the threads of the spider web that was formed by the spiritual shadow.

Under the impact of the rippling spiritual power, the enchanted barrier began to tremble violently. Moments later, the vibrations intensified, til hairline cracks began to appear.

"Ah!" Rocky exclaimed, popping open his eyes. Suddenly, a strong spiritual power surged out from his palm and onto the enchanted barrier. With a loud bang, the whole enchanted barrier shattered into countless pieces, like broken glass. In the blink of an eye, the barrier had vanished without a trace.

Once the enchanted barrier was broken, Rocky immediately brandished the Frozen Wind Dagger, slashing at the wooden fence. Then, he rushed to his father, the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire.

As he got closer, Rocky could see the state the emperor was left in. Long wisps of silver hair framed his hollowed cheeks. His eyes were sunken, as though he barely slept. His torn-up robe revealed emaciated hands and feet.

"Father..." Rocky couldn't help but tremble with mixed emotions at the sight of his mistreated father. Yet, he was not supposed to have such emotions.

"Don't worry, my child. It's lucky enough that I am still alive. What matters now is that I lived to see you again," the emperor said calmly. His old wrinkled face revealed a thankful smile, his eyes brimming with tears of gratitude.

"Let's go." Rocky abruptly turned around to let the emperor mount his back. Together, they left the cave as fast as they could, flying straight down.
