I Received System to Become Dragonborn

The Elf couldn't even make a sound when he died. His body fell paralyzed onto the cold space floor.

The black smoke that covered his entire head made him lose his ability to breathe and also drowned out his voice.

The figure who had just killed him just watched with a deadpan expression on his face.

He stared at the suffering Elf in front of him with the only intention of waiting for his death.

The Elf's hand fell limply on the ground. It no longer shows any movement. The mysterious murderer waited a few more seconds before finally being convinced that the Elf in front of him was dead.

After that, he stretched out his hand. The black smoke that covered the Elf's head was pulled back and into his hands. Leaving Elf's pale face with a gaping mouth and wide-open eyes. As if uttering silent terror.

The mysterious killer then does one more thing that will complete all of this.

He spread his arms and black flames appeared above his palms. After that, the mysterious murderer threw the two black flames at the Elf's corpse.

'WOOSZZ!'

Accompanied by a slight hissing sound, the flames instantly enveloped the Elf's body until nothing else could be seen.

The killer waited patiently. After a few minutes had passed, finally the black flames had completely devoured the Elf's corpse without leaving any residue. Not even ashes or black spots on it.

The Elf's corpse just disappeared. As if it had never been there in the first place.

The killer figure had completely eliminated the Elf's existence into nothingness.

"It's done now," the figure muttered quietly.

Then he turned and walked towards the door. The figure then left the room as if nothing had happened.

Everything went according to plan. Now no one will know who exactly destroyed the Magic shield core from within the palace. Besides that, no one will ever know that he is the real traitor.

Luckily, Aerchon decided to interrogate the humans first. That gives him plenty of time to do the cleaning and get things done.

Actually, the mysterious figure couldn't help but feel ticklish in his heart. Seeing Aerchon driven with hatred made him make an unreasonable decision.

Why interrogate humans? even though they were also one of the victims kidnapped by the Daemon of Calamity in that attack?

The humans had nothing to do with the attack either. But the figure felt benefited from having them here.

Because of them, he was able to escape suspicion.

'Everything is in order now. Just move on to the next plan.' the figure smirked.

Even though his plan basically failed because of the human who could turn into a Dragon, he wasn't too worried.

He still had many other plans. And of course, he would prepare something else to deal with the Dragonborn.

~~~

Time passed very tiringly for Aerchon, Saeldir, and Aurdis. They spent a very long time interrogating all the Elves in the palace.

Their bodies were tired and their Magic energy was exhausted. Especially when in the end they didn't find out who the real culprit was for destroying the Magic shield core.

"(Are you sure your Dome of Truth is working properly?)" Aerchon said while looking at Saeldir. His gaze was very supportive of his words. Expressing doubt.

Saeldir sighed and tried to be patient when he saw Aerchon seem to underestimate his ability.

This wasn't the first time this had happened to him so Saeldir felt he could handle all of this better.

It should be. Unfortunately, coupled with the exhaustion he was experiencing, Saeldir had a hard time keeping his temper.

"(This spell has never failed before. Anyone who lies in the Dome of Truth will be hit by a severe psychic attack. You can try it if you want,)" Saeldir said in a tired tone.

Aerchon groaned deeply after hearing Saeldir's tone. But before he could say anything, Aurdis had spoken. Canceled all his intentions to hurl harsher words at Saeldir because it would only lead to useless fights.

"(Let's just rest today,)" Aurdis said. "(After that we can think things over again.)"

Even Aurdis felt that she had to force the words out of her mouth because she felt that she had no more energy.

But it was better than hearing Aerchon and Saeldir quarrel. Aurdis stood up first from her chair and then left the room.

Aurdis felt that she had to run away as fast as possible. Even though she had spoken, there was still the possibility that Aerchon and Saeldir would fight.

Aurdis walked slowly. Her face was pale and her tired-looking eyes lost their usual radiance. It was the effect that occurred when she drained his Magic energy.

"Hhh..." Aurdis sighed.

As she walked down the corridor that was not covered by walls, Aurdis turned her head towards the sky.

The sky was dark and the stars were spread out wide creating a scene like glowing dust scattering around the empty, vast, and dark background.

"It must be almost midnight. Or even more," murmured Aurdis.

Unfortunately, even after going through a long and tedious process, they still couldn't find the culprit.

"Ahhh..." Aurdis let out a frustrated sigh as he put her hands on her cheeks. "What should I do?"

"How about you get some rest now?"

A voice that Aurdis knew suddenly sounded in her ears.

Aurdis turned to the source of the voice and found Erend standing with a smile on his face.

Erend looked at Aurdis with shady eyes. When Aurdis saw it, he felt a calmness amid that frustration and anxiety. "Why haven't you slept yet?" Aurdis asked in a tired voice. "I wasn't sleepy and decided to go for a walk," Erend replied. "Unlike you. You look like you could pass out at any moment."

Aurdis smiled weakly. "Is that so?"

"Yeah."

Aurdis took a deep breath and then her face turned gloomy again. "I'm sorry for what happened to you."

Erend clicked his tongue and said. "You don't have to apologize about that anymore. I think we passed that already."

"But still ... you must feel sad after being suspected like that. Even though you are also one of the victims who suffered," Aurdis said.

"Never mind," Erend said. "I don't care about your brother anymore."

Aurdis looked at Erend. "By the way, you did something awesome before."

Erend snorted. "You think that's awesome?"

"No one dared to challenge Aerchon like that before."

"I'm just too tired. So maybe that's why I can't help myself. I'm lucky to have a very useful comrade," Erend said.

"Oh, right! Where did you get that Slime from?" Aurdis asked with a look that looks very curious.

"Uhh... Well, I got it in a cave," Erend answered dubiously.

"Cave?" Aurdis frowned. "I didn't know you going to a place like a cave here. And of course, you wouldn't be able to get those Slimes in your world."

"Uhh... yeah... that would be quite complicated to explain," Erend said with an awkward smile.

Aurdis tilted her head to the side. Her movements like that, coupled with a curious look on her face, made Aurdis look adorable.

Because of Aurdis' behavior, Erend couldn't help but smile. He didn't even notice. Erend's sudden smile surprised her.

"Why are you smiling like that?" Aurdis asked in surprise.

"Ah?" Erend immediately controlled the look on his face again. "I-Its nothing."

Aurdis puffed up one cheek. Then said. "Hmm... fine. I'll go to my room. This long day has made me very tired."

"Yes. You should sleep," Erend said.

"Good night," Aurdis said with a tired smile.

"Good night," Erend replied.

After that Erend saw Aurdis walking past him. Her silver hair moved gently following his steps.

Then from where Aurdis came earlier, Erend saw the figure of Aerchon walking this way. Erend who didn't want to deal with him hurriedly left the place.

~~~

Erend was finally able to escape from his encounter with Aerchon. Even though Aerchon wasn't actually chasing him.

Erend is not afraid of the Elf prince. It's just that he knows more than to get caught up in a conversation with him.

If Erend talked to Aerchon, all that would arise in his heart was anger. Whenever Erend remembers his nature and whatever he does, Erend always has the urge to turn into a Dragon and finish him off.

But of course, he couldn't do that. There's already enough chaos going on and Erend isn't going to add to it. So, it's better to avoid Aerchon as far as possible.

Erend walked while letting his mind drift elsewhere. Until he doesn't know where he is now.

This Elf Palace is very spacious. Erend had never seen the entire area. And finally, now Erend was in a quite strange place.

He looked back about to go back, but then thought he'd take a little more walk. After all, he also had nothing to do.

So Erend continued walking. His steps took him to another yard. But Erend immediately hid when he saw an Elf standing alone in the darkness.
