Dragon King's Heart

Suho earns the relic by finishing the quest tied to becoming a candidate for the Dragon King's role. The moment it settles into him, a searing inferno surges out from his chest while raw energy coils across his body like a serpent and twists into churning black-red fire. The power lodges in the right half of his chest, throbbing with that same dark crimson flame.

The heart pours immeasurable mana into Suho, beyond 100,000, enough to sustain almost endless revival of his shadow troops. Alongside that supply comes Dragon King Authority, letting him command dragons and any creature carrying dragon blood. He can also unleash red-black flames of pure ruin powerful enough to erase even weapons fashioned from the divine energy of the Outer Gods, a destructive force that rivals the Breath of Destruction.

The artifact belonged to Antares before passing to Suho. When its energy meets Suho's shadow soldiers, their forms ignite in a shimmering, mirage-like blaze of jet-black death, a hybrid of shadow and dragon fire. The effect both mends and consumes them at once, because the Shadow Monarch's nature and the Monarch of Destruction's nature pull against each other inside Suho, locking the soldiers in a constant cycle of regeneration and breakdown.
