Witnessing the Devil effortlessly achieve what had taken the Dragon centuries to master dealt a severe blow to the Elder Anesthesia Dragon's confidence. Despite the setback, the Dragon refused to succumb to self-pity, persevering in its relentless pursuit to eliminate the Devil. However, bolstered by its ancestral blessing, the Devil had already surpassed the Dragon in both skill and prowess within the dream realm. This turn of events left the Dragon grappling with a newfound sense of inadequacy and frustration.

With each attempt to defeat the Devil, the Dragon faced mounting challenges as the Devil flawlessly countered every move with grace and precision. The Dragon's desperation grew as it struggled to keep pace with the Devil's unmatched abilities. Despite its best efforts, the Dragon was outmaneuvered at every turn, unable to match the Devil's strategic brilliance.

As the conflict raged on, the Devil's dominance became increasingly apparent, further eroding the Dragon's confidence. With each passing moment, it became evident that the Devil had firmly established itself as the superior force within the dream field, leaving the Dragon to confront the harsh reality of its diminished stature within its own domain of expertise.

After a millennium of dedicated training and unyielding practice, the Dragon found itself humbled by the overwhelming prowess of the Deviant Devil, whose ancestral blessing and innate abilities seemed to effortlessly outshine the Dragon's honed skills. Faced with repeated defeat at the hands of its adversary, the Dragon's pride began to crumble, and it realized that relying solely on its acquired skills would no longer suffice.

Though unwilling to believe that the skills it was proud of were failing it, the Dragon decided to embrace humility. The Dragon, then acknowledged the need to tap into its own innate abilities, dormant yet potent, waiting to be unleashed. With a newfound determination, the Dragon sought to demonstrate to the Devil that it too possessed formidable innate talents, ones that could rival even the combination of its ancestral blessings and innate ability.

"Dream within Dream," or the "Dream Maze," was a distinctive innate ability exclusive to the Anesthesia Dragon race. With this power, they could lull their targets into a deep slumber within a dream, subsequently entering another layer of the dream. Anesthesia Dragons were renowned for ensnaring adversaries within a complex labyrinth of dreams, causing them to become lost within the maze of multiple layers of dreams within their own subconscious. Consequently, the victim's physical form would plunge into an extended coma, trapped between the realms of wakefulness and the dream world.

This formidable ability posed a significant threat, enabling Anesthesia Dragons to confront foes of superior strength. To awaken from the coma induced by the Dream Maze, the victim had to navigate their way through the intricate corridors of the multiple layers of the dream dungeon, retracing their steps back to consciousness. This journey demanded resilience, clarity of mind, and an unwavering determination to break free from the entrapment of the dream maze.

The Dream Maze stood as a testament to the Anesthesia Dragons' mastery over the realms of dreams, serving as both a defensive mechanism and a potent weapon in their arsenal.

Despite the Elder Anesthesia Dragon's inability to directly vanquish the Deviant Devil in the dream field with its once formidable skills, it devised a cunning strategy to neutralize the threat using its innate ability. Recognizing the devil's resilience and strength, the dragon opted for a different approach: to imprison the devil's soul within an intricate network of dreams, a labyrinthine construct spanning multiple layers of dream realm using its innate ability 'Dream within Dream' or 'Dream Maze.'

The Dragon planned to craft a Dream Maze so elaborate that the Deviant Devil would find itself ensnared and lost amidst the shifting corridors of its own dream maze. The dragon planned to employ its innate mastery over dreams to its finest to weave together a complex maze of dreams with twists and turns in every corner such that the devil would struggle to navigate its way back to the physical realm for the remainder of its existence.

This way the Deviant Devil would be condemned to wander the Dream Maze, perpetually seeking an escape route to the reality that would elude its grasp just when it thought it had found it. Banishing the devil to traverse through the myriad layers of dreams, haunted by its worst nightmares.

The Elder Anesthesia Dragon having decided to utilize its innate ability already began to count its eggs and relish imagining the Deviant Devil trapped in its Dream maze for the remainder of its life span. After all, the Deviant Devil's innate ability and ancestral blessing had managed to leave an everlasting scar in its psyche. It was very hard for the Dragon to believe that the millennium of years it spent honing its skills were laid waste to by the Devil using its innate ability. In the heat of the moment, it forgot to see the big picture rather its mind was occupied by its loss and it forgot its skills did not betray it rather Devil was just stronger.

'Dream Maze,' the Dragon smugly used its innate ability on the Devil, hoping to see it fall asleep and enter another layer of dream however, contrary to its imagination, the Devil did not sleep rather it stood tall unaffected by the Dragon's innate ability.

Seeing the Devil unaffected by its ability, the Dragon looked at the Devil in disbelief, it stared into the Devil's and did not see any sign of sleeplessness. Rather there was a trace of excitement in them, then the Devil who happened to be a silent participant in its own assassination attempt finally spoke, 'What did you do just now? Do it again?'

'Fuck! Don't tell me you carried your immunity to sleep into the dream itself. How is that even possible?' the Dragon asked the Devil in disbelief. Because the Devil's immunity to its sleep belonged to its muscles and not its spiritual body however for some unknown reason its spiritual body was able to display similar immunity. Then thinking of something the Dragon exclaimed, 'Is it because of the Moon Ape Incarnation form? Did your spiritual body really become as strong as your physical body?'
