In the end, Karon still suppressed this incredibly alluring idea that was so attractive to him. He diligently used his dragon claw to lift the eyelids that seemed to have developed their own will and wanted to close.
Then he shook his head to clear his mind, causing a ripple in the lava-filled river.
He emerged from the temporary cave and swam upwards through the excavated passage.
The strong body of a Giant Dragon allows them to survive in all kinds of environments, and a Red Dragon is especially at ease in a lava river, swimming through it faster than any fish in the sea.
He even took the time during his swim upward to find several rare minerals and some precious gemstones born in the volcanic magma.
He swallowed these gemstones into the special storage stomach unique to the Giant Dragons, and then, propelled by the upward-spraying lava stream, Karon quickly swam out of the long lava tunnel, emerging at the mouth of the cave that used to be a volcanic basin.
