Omni-Mastery

As a natural limitation of the 'Full Dragonization' that originated from 'Dragonization' (Intermediate), it could only enlarge the body size encased in dragon scales, other body modification abilities such as 'Dragon Wings' couldn't be used along with it simultaneously.

Otherwise, there would have been no reason for me to use the crude method of crashing with a more durable body…

Fortunately, the 'Full Dragonization' body proved its worth as I couldn't feel more than a few stings even though I crashed on hard old trees, which were blown into smithereens.

 "Meoooooooowwww!"

With the 'loud morning' meow of Light announcing a safe landing, I let out a small sigh as I was about to play around with the 'Full Dragonization' body to get another feel for it before the daily minute of usage has passed, only to be forced to quickly cancel it!

'Someone is here…'

Though the impact and the destruction caused by it distorted my senses at first, my high Perception stat as well as 'Omni-viewing Eye' weren't for nothing as I quickly sensed the existence of at least six living beings very close to my landing spot.

'Another coincidence? No…'

Even though I had already encountered several situations that seemed like a terribly convenient or inconvenient coincidence, there were still at the level of barely believable chances of fate, however, for there to be this much people in the middle of a seemingly dead forest just where I landed, this one definitely couldn't be passed off as a simple coincidence!

'Either that I have been discovered by someone or…'

Countless plausible answers played in my head as I wondered if the spatial node itself was a trap, but I quickly put that aside for the moment as I first had to get out of this situation before thinking further.

'Let's hope they can give me an explanation instead.'

Since this meeting occurred too fast, I decided to give up changing back completely to my normal form and kept on my normal-sized full dragon scale suit. After all, not only was this much more swift, but it would provide great defense in case this was an ambush.

As the causes behind the situation couldn't be simply deduced with so little leads presented, I had already given up thrashing everything while in my 'Full Dragonization' form, not only was questioning needed, but there was also a minuscule chance that some of the people would be innocent.

Thankfully, the dust that was blown by my fall, covered up my transformation as well as my patting of Light to stay calm and hide on my back for the time being…

"Cough... Team..Leader! Something really happened!"

"Cough… cough… there is no need to pierce my ears, lower your voice…"

'Huh?'

As the dust started to settle, the voices that seemed to come from the two who were the closest to my position reached my ears.

'This might be easier than expected.'

I was already able to grasp part of the reason behind this surprise meeting, though they seemed a bit shocked, these two definitely knew that I would crash here one way or another!

Not to mention that they didn't seem too bright, they didn't even try to be the least bit secretive, they would probably be excellent questioning material!

However, just as my view became somewhat clear, I was given another small surprise…

'These eyes, skin… and that wriggling thing!'

Though their voices sounded very normal, they weren't human!

'This domain…'

Just as I was in the middle of processing the information I obtained from what I saw, loud savage cries bombarded my ears…

"Grahhhh…"

As a result, another voice responded in full spirit.

[ Interaction confirmed! Player Initiated quest 'Prophecy' has started! ]

`~~`~~`~~`

"Cough… cough…"

'Something really crashed…'

The team leader who managed to stand up first after the destructive impact questioned the reality of what just happened!

Even though he really wished that something would happen and restore their hope, he didn't think it would be this exaggerated!

It was true that the news that led to this small expedition came from a fairly superstitious source, but there at least had to be limits…

However, that didn't seem to be the case! Something really appeared out of nowhere!

Even from someone like him who went on expeditions regularly had a limit to his imagination, such an event was starting to overwhelm his thoughts.

'No no no! Inspection comes first!'

Looking at the cheerful face of his subordinate, the team leader stopped his thoughts from going wild as he tried to move away the dust that blocked his view.

It was true that the premonition that they received has come true, but there was no guarantee that whatever crashed was really the 'hope' that they longed for!

Before confirming the identity of the source behind this event, he couldn't behave lightly at all. After all, the only clues he had was the strange soft cry that came out with the crash…

'Time is still limited as well…'

Most importantly, the ones that were chasing them were still there, it was just that they were stunned by what happened, but that definitely wouldn't last!

'Confirming the results of the crash and acting upon it…'

His orders were to obtain the 'hope' that would appear and bring it back with them, but the team leader was considering other options such as escape. After all, the situation was simply too dangerous, even if 'hope' had fallen on them from the sky, it would be useless if it was something that couldn't be used immediately…

In such a scenario, while it would count as a mission failure to abandon the target of the mission, escaping and reporting the nature of this hope would be the best outcome!

"Grahhhh…"

'They are already becoming active once more…'

Deciding to ignore the coming danger to complete the minimum objective of confirming the source of the crash, the momentarily brave team leader focused his sights ahead without turning back, however…

Roaaar!

A bright dark red flaming object was soaring towards him from the direction that his sight was concentrated at!

'This is… my end?'
