Chapter 248: Dreadful
~SHRISHK~
~BOOOMMH!!~
[You have destroyed the source of Eurekyl magic]
[All your stats have returned to normal]
[Regeneration speed has been restored]
Rein sighed sadly as the black sword in his hand fell down, after cutting down the neck of the barely living red dragon.
Rein touched the head of the dragon,
’Who would have thought that there was another red dragon apart from Zaldres...’
"I’m sorry, I couldn’t save you" he sobbed.
The dragon was placed in black shackles, with a mechanism that was right above it, with large needles that were as big as swords, that pierced the dragon’s skin and drew out its blood. Of all dragon resources, their blood was the hardest to come by, because of their healing speed and the fact that a dragon blood dries up under sunlight.
"Before another dragon of the same kind is born into the world, the existence of its predecessor must be erased, I guess that is what the Eurekyl magic was for and that was why another red dragon was born, which means thisbred dragon has been suffering like this for over a thousand year atleast." Theo said.
[Quest: The roots of Eurekyl magic has progressed]
[You have discovered an abandoned laboratory where Eurekyl magic was experimented but not perfected]
[You have liberated the soul of the red dragon Tiamenthus]
[You have discovered a large dragon carcasses]
[Dragon Carcasses can be used for production of equipments]
[Quest progression; 25%]
"It seems the source of Eurekyl magic is dragon blood" Rein coldly said.
"Yes my lord" Theo replied, with anger in his eyes but he worried more because of the gaze that fell from Rein.
’Come to think of it, I have never seen Lord Bahamut frown...or was it because I was still very small...’ he thought.
Rein reached out to a metal door with wheel, he rolled the wheel and opened the door.
He looked around, "items that have been enchanted using Eurekyl magic" he said, still using his eyes to find something. He suddenly sees it, a dark cloud sitting in a corner.
He went there and took it, the dark cloud sat on his hand and wriggled as though it just woke up from a long sleep.
"This is the Repository of multiplication...not quite what I expected, was this what Bahamut wished he could destroy a kingdom to get...let’s see"
He took the white sword and put it into the cloud.
[The Repository of multiplication wants to acknowledge you as its master before it does your bidden]
[Name it]
"Your name will be cloud" Rein said
The dark cloud started to form into something else, after a while, it turned to a very fat black tabby breed cat, with white belly and two small black horns.
[Repository of Multiplication has gained awareness due to naming]
[Repository of Multiplication has evolved from a material ego to a draconic beast]
[Cloud can now double your items and minerals by swallowing them]
[Cloud can also store and preserve anything by swallowing them]
[Cloud can also create a portal which you can use to warp to anywhere Cloud has been to or you have ever been to]
[Cloud can process minerals to their final form]
[Special attribute gained upon evolution: Cloud can add special effect to a mineral being processed depending on mineral trait or mode of formation]
The very fat cat meowed and rubbed Rein’s feet with its body.
’That black thing turned into a cat when it was named...is that why master didn’t want to name the serpent, because it would gain more power...but this cat, its really cute, I want to rub its belly’ Theo said in his head as he looked atbrhw cat with adoration in his eyes but held back himself so he wouldn’t transgress the atmosphere.
"Cloud, swallow that and preserve it, process what needs to be processed and preserve the rest" Rein said pointing to the dragon corpse.
The cat opened its mouth, at once a dark cloud sucked the dragon corpse into it.
[Cloud has stored the red dragon’s corpse]
[Due to weight of item Cloud movement have been slowed by 35%]
The cat stomach got obviously fatter as it slowly walked to Rein.
"Pick it" Rein said to Theo who immediately carried the cat.
"Take her to the treasure room and make her swallow all the treasures and multiply it...I want to destroy this entire place, go out immediately you are done" he said
Theo nodded and left with Cloud.
~gggggrrrrrr~
The ground shook.
"Is Doir still fighting with that back stabbing serpent..." Rein said to himself as he released his dragon authority.
[You are using dragon authority]
~WHAM~
There was a sudden shift of atmosphere as the clouds began to darken above the dwarven kingdom.
[The stat of all creatures within the range of dragon authority will drop by 1.002%]
[You have entered nirvana]
[Your comprehension of nirvana has been restored: 50%]
[Nirvana has alternated the numbers]
Ariel who was flying towards Rein suddenly felt a nudge in her sense, like something was to come.
She immediately landed and turned to everyone coming to start warn them.
[Nirvana has alternated the numbers]
[The stats of every creature within the range of your dragon authority has dropped by 1200%]
All of them fell to their knees as though there was a pressure pressing them down to the ground, all of them except Huemac and Godeye.
But Ariel soon stood up too even though she struggled a bit, she was standing perfectly fine.
Azes too got up, which made Bel wonder,
"How?" He asked slowly.
All of us here are connected to master, all you have to do is expose your presence to him and you naturally get freedom and maybe even strengthening. What you are seeing now is Master’s draconic ego, arguing with it will not go well, you just have to expose yourself, show it that connection with you and Master." Ariel said.
The red Knight crushed further into the ground as she struggled, she went from kneeling to completely laying on the floor with her face down.
Ariel trembled with excitement,
’How strong has master grown in just few days of being alone...’
"That boy, is becoming more of a monster everyday huh" Huemac said.
"The monster you created" Godeye replied him.
He ignored the comment.
~TREEMMMBBUUUU~
The whoe dungeon shook so much that they lost balance.
"This bastard, is he trying to destroy this place or what?" Huemac said.
~TREEMMBUULLL~
~SHHHRRRINNGGG~
The dungeon began to shake continuously, simultaneously darkness hovered over the dwarven kingdom as the people experienced great weakness and unconscious the floor.
The king groaned on his knees as he struggled to keep his consciousness but as well found it hard.
"Oh, dear gods is this the punishment for my cowardice" the King cried as he lost consciousness.
Even the serpent couldn’t resist as it immediately felt greatly weakened and unable to effectively counter Doir’s attack, he got hit and tumbled, crashed into the walls of the cave. Doir looked towards the centre of the cave and descended there and disappeared.
Rein in nirvana began to disintegrate the formula of the entire cave which was the easiest thing to do since they were simple formula not like that of a living being.
The whole cave without an explosion, came crumbling down.
.....
"That’s some guts you lot suddenly developed", Ansiel as he looked at the cloudary image of the wisdom god
"Well, one of us had to take the bold step..."
"Why would we angels join hands together with you? Are you feeling pompous because we gave you an apartment at our yard" Zaphkiel said.
"Will you all let us hear what they have to say" they all bowed their heads as Arch angel Micheal entered the sanctuary they all sat at.
"You all have something to gain from this relationship, in fact quite alot" Kor said, "all you have to do is kill two humans for us"
"Is this an insult, you want us to descend down because of a human? Didn’t you have puppets you use for that?" Arch angel Ansiel said.
"Do you think I would go this extent if it were possible doing that...also don’t forget we also gave you permission to use this so called puppets, thanks to these puppets you say, things have been interesting for you all too..."
Ansiel looked away.
"Would you go on?" Arch angel Micheal said.
"If you are able to exterminate them for us, we have a very important information on how to find the supreme one you all seek, if possible how to bring him back"
All of them except Micheal stood up in anger.
"ARE YOU RIDICULING US NOW?" Peliel groaned with anger as he stared at Kor through the cloudary image.
"Why would I joke with something like that, knowing how dangerous you all are. You all are not restricted by the laws of descending, but we have been restricted by those stupid estelers. And these humans seem to be getting in the way of our plan of uplifting that restriction, you help us get rid of them, we give you a very important information on how to find your supreme one. Are you in?"
