"Are you sure you still want to look for him?" Ask Fee.
"Yes." Yeah." Alice's brief reply with a serious face.
"What about his identity. I think you should know who your daughter really is."
"You don't have to tell me. Ever since she thought of me as her mother and I accepted her. I don't care about anyone. She's still Echidna, my daughter." Clearly Alice emphasized her stance.
Right now the two were in the sky, precisely using Alice's flying sword, both of them headed to where Echidna should be.
After taking the Cecilion slave captives to Arkham city. Rose had briefly restrained Alice and had previously asked the same question. As the owner of the Eye of Truth, that ability makes Rose recognize the true identity of Echidna.
Alice raised her palm in front of Rose, she shook her head and rejected Rose's wish to tell her who Echidna was.
Not that Alice refused, but Alice had first realized the fact that her daughter's strength exceeded anyone she had ever met. As she sees what happened through Cecilion's memories, Alice can already guess about Echidna's true identity. The truth about his daughter all this time was that the dragon race would not make him undo his intention to still bring Echidna back to his side.
As Fee dwells in Alice's shadow, the flying sword that Alice uses darted rapidly towards the place where the dragons lived. Drakelight Mountains with high peaks and low temperatures. It became a barrier between the lands of the Elves and the Dwarves of the land for the deemon races.

"How is His Majesty doing?" Asked a man with a humanoid appearance who was human in stature but with a tail and scales as well as some parts of the dragon race.
"The situation is better. We have tried our best to remove the seal from the Hero and it seems like His Majesty's consciousness will return soon." Reply to one of the elders of the dragon race.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, after waiting for three days. Finally he saw a bright spot and soon with the arrival of the woman, the dragon race would return to show its power to the world.
"But there's an awkwardness that we're hard to deal with."
The man's breathing was stifled as the old man continued his sentence.
"What's that awkwardness?" he scrunched his forehead.
"His Majesty's strength gradually recovered but was different from the condition of her body that looked like a little girl. Although we have taken pains to eliminate the strange, but our magic still has no effect on him. We feel that the awkwardness has fused with His Majesty's body." Clearly then the elders retreated.
After days of purification on Echidna to release the seal that the Hero had planted on her. The elders of the dragon race were finally able to rest. That hundred-year-old Hero Seal consumed a lot of Mana energy. Had it not been for something so strange to break it, then they would have had trouble breaking the seal.
Malzar Volge, the man's name. He was currently the leader of the dragon race. Malzar turned and stared for a moment at the door of the room where Echidna was resting, and then he left.
The next day, Kyrant, the son of Malzar had returned from the Arkham continent. As Cecilion's magic had weakened, Kyrant finally managed to escape and return to his land.
"Come in." A cold, flat voice sounded from inside the room where Echidna was resting.
A guard standing outside glanced at each other before deciding on one of them to go inside.
Echidna is awake. Yes, his memory and strength have returned. After guessing at his current surroundings, he saw the soldier before him shivering in fear.
"Who is your leader?" Ask Echidna.
Like a cold wind that blew slowly into his ears, the soldier became even more nervous to answer. "He was Mr. Malzar Volge."
Echidna put her hand on her chin while remembering the name. "Volge...? Hmm. I don't know who he is. Call him here."
"Good Your Majesty." The soldier came out immediately. He was thankful that he wasn't in the room too long.
While waiting for a while, Echidna recalled what had happened to her all along. He was a little surprised because his body was similar to that of a little girl.
"I can use Mana manifestations to cover this up." And so it changed to its original form as it did hundreds of years ago before it was sealed.
Echidna glanced at his chest. He held onto the left side of his chest and felt something was lacking. His heart was beating normally but that feeling like there was something he had forgotten made him slightly disturbed. Not knowing what it was, Echidna was indifferent and tried not to care so much. For him right now was a grudge and hatred to be avenged.
After a while. Malzar and Kyrant enter Echidna's room. Their pair of eyes were wide open looking at the beautiful lady sitting on the side of the bed.
Dark black hair with blood-red eyes, that piercing gaze as well as domineering aura emanated clearly even though he was just sitting leisurely.
"Is this also part of that awkwardness?" Unlike the humanoid body of the dragon race in general. Echidna looks more like a human.
Malzar and Kyrant immediately knelt before Echidna.
"I'm glad Your Majesty finally came to his senses." Malzar.
Echidna did not speak. He stood up from the bed and walked closer to the two.
"Tell me, how is the current state of the dragon race?"
"Right now we..." Malzar could not think of the right answer. Put aside their great power. They were on top of a mountain that was difficult to climb and as if closing themselves up, they had done nothing during this time apart from maintaining the stability of their race.
"I'm sorry Your Majesty. Since we lost you, we can only keep the dragon race strong." Kyrant has replaced Malzar.
Echidna glanced to the side sharply. He stepped up and stood in front of Kyrant. "I didn't ask you. Once again you're presumptuous and you're gonna die." He said firmly.
"Pardon me Your Majesty."
"Gather the dragons together. After all this time I fell asleep in the Hero's seal. It is time to wake up and show the world. Heh, especially for those stupid hyumans. A little pest that's been embarrassing me." With a grin on his face, Echidna walked out of the room followed by Malzar and Kyrant.
"Just wait. I'll make you regret your actions for sealing me. Look at nature there. I, will destroy your race!" His mind then he laughed a little.
