It took Yunan and Balin about a week to finish their experiments and conclude the changes required for the battle toys, the planned upgrade was mainly focused on the mana circulation and usage, it was bad trying to fix many things at once so the two chose to focus on optimization of the mana circulatory system before addressing any more issues like performance enhancement and damage reduction.

With that over and dealt with, Yunan decided to spend some quality time with his pets, he has become very aware of the possibility of loss ever since mother died, he has been spending quality time with his family as much as possible, so it was only a matter of time before he took his pets out for a night of cuddling. The destination was the west facing beach behind the bright palace, where Yunan and his pets played like anyone else would, they fought over who gets to cuddle who, wrestled on the fine sands, swam together and had some good stress relief moments.

They stayed out playing all day and ended up passing the night outside under the canopy of stars, there was no moon and only stars illuminated the beach in the darkness of the night. Sapphira expanded her size to be as big as bear and allowed the rest to treat her a big fluffy and warm pillow, Ignis was nestled in under a big arm ready to sleep, Yunan was lying beside Sapphira and was firmly held in place against her belly, while Drogon was wrapped around Yunan's chest.

"Sapphira, do you think we should play like this often?". Yunan asked with relaxed voice, he was trying not to surrender to sleep but the warm fuzzy fur was very persuasive. "No" answered the cat "you being in my face like this frequently makes it hard to keep up my act of liking you, also how did you and Drogon gets o close without playing all the time". "Leave me out of this, we are not close at all, and we don't play together, that is for kids like Ignis, as for how we got close without playing, who said we didn't?". "Grandpa Drogon playing fetch would be a nice thing to see","why do you have to make it look like its a bad thing, i bet you too would play fetch if you grew up with us back then, you may think that fighting every day is boring, well think again, being taught by a boring old dwarf under a mountain is way worse, thank goodness i could spend time with my Yunan otherwise i would have gone mad".

"I never heard you complain about the dwarves before, how come you say it now that we are alone", "because it's disrespectful and very impolite to do so, even if it was the truth, they did teach me so much and i am grateful", " they taught me lots too, how about we go to Mia and pay them back by teaching them a thing or two, maybe we can even get Ignis to be grateful for them, they may have something related to the phoenix clan in there, they tend to horde such things after all". "We should spend our next vacation under the mountain, i bet Mia would be so happy to see how far we have come in this period of time".

"Who is Mia and what is this with under the mountain talk?", "Remember when we were telling tales about the hearts of Burkan and how they are bad at acting and what not, well Mia is the heart of the mountain, she lives under the lonely mountain, the capital of the dwarven race and that place is literally built under a mountain", "also Mia is Balin's teacher and she is a female copy of him, perversion included, so you would like her just as much".

"When should we take our vacation then?", "There is a once per century event that takes place at awakened isle, we can go there to participate, and then pass by the lonely mountain and the world tree, it would be great, that way we can have fun and go sightseeing", "sounds like a plan, when is that happening?" "In 3 years time, it would be obvious because all the awakened are called by the gods that week, we get this brilliant symbol on our foreheads to start the summons, you will not miss it".

"Alright then, we should push at least to the 65th floor", "the mapping will take ages, we can leave that for the time when we finish the vacation and return to the dungeon", "that does not sound right at all", "if we split up and go solo, it can work as both training and mapping at the same time, two birds with one stone", "that's the spirit, you should never stop practicing a good habit just to speed things up, it's not worth it, now lets sleep, someone feels so comfortable that my eyelids became as heavy as the lonely mountain", "good night~"...

As the pets relaxed breathing reached his ears, Yunan began thinking maybe he should not have brought his pets and wives back to the dungeon, it is true that he wanted to spend more time with them, but the thing he should be doing is to train hard by day and play with his beloved by night, keeping his family safe and sound depended on him, he was capable of flying solo, with Drogon by his side, he was near invincible, for his rank anyway, he decided that he really was putting his family in harm's way, he could help them upgrade their strengths in other ways, it was simply getting more dangerous the closer he got to the 80s, and with his current knowledge he could make deities out of them even if they were ordinary.

While Yunan was deep in his train of thought he heard Drogon's voice in his mind "so you finally found your mistake, i thought i needed to start interfering soon, neither Ignis nor Sapphira are made for battle, your wives should be making children not fighting in the dungeon, your duty is to keep them safe and happy, so get to it, i have a very good feeling about what will wait for us in the 90s, however, there is a chance that we might miss it, so get stronger, fast, and use your full power, limiting yourself like you are doing is only delaying the day i get a wife and kids too".

Finding the logic infallible Yunan closed his eyes and went to sleep, maybe, just maybe, he should have been faster at realising this, no matter what, he was thankful for his luck bringing dragon.
