Reborn as a DRAGON

Chapter 335: The world

Our plan was straightforward: Ynos would investigate any mana abnormalities in the western continent. While we hadn't been explicitly instructed to avoid interacting with the locals, I felt it necessary to remind my younger brother to exercise restraint. Even if that continent was teeming with monsters, we had a different purpose and needed to stay focused. Meddling in the affairs of the world's inhabitants would only disrupt the natural order and serve no good.

As for Sidus and me, our destination was the central continent, home to three mortal races. The most populous of these races were the humans, who seemed to be widespread across the universe. Their resilience and ability to thrive in various environments spoke volumes about their exceptional qualities as a race.

The second race was entirely new to me. They bore a resemblance to humans in terms of their stature, but the key difference lay in their green skin. They were noticeably smaller than regular humans, often standing at half their height. What captivated my curiosity the most was their unique mode of communication. Instead of speaking or making audible sounds, they relied on telepathy to communicate with one another.

They used this method, even when interacting with other races. They were called, The Mindweavers and they possessed the extraordinary ability of telekinesis, enabling them to manipulate objects with their minds. While this power might appear overwhelmingly advantageous, their actual power output was limited and they fatigued rather quickly.

In contrast, the humans of this world did not seem to possess mages like we were familiar with. Instead, they had a class known as Weapon Masters. These individuals wielded a similar enigmatic energy to the knights from our home planet, though their techniques appeared to be more refined and sophisticated.

It was fascinating to hear how each race on this plane had developed its own set of abilities and skills, tailored to their environment and circumstances.

According to Selenia's information, the humans and Mindweavers had forged strong alliances and maintained friendly relations for an extensive period. While they had faced challenges and conflicts over the course of their shared history, the two races managed to sustain their bond. However, the primary reason for their enduring alliance was the presence of the third race.

The Auris, often regarded as angelic beings due to their striking appearance, differed from the divine deities despite their similar aura. Like the Humans and Mindweavers, they possessed humanoid features, but what set them apart were their distinguishing characteristics. Adorned with golden wings, their silver-white hair and eyes exuded an ethereal beauty.

However, the claims made by the Auris about being direct descendants of the Gods were met with skepticism by Selenia. She promptly refuted this notion, denying any divine lineage within the Auris. Their arrogant demeanor and self-proclaimed connection to the divine seemed to be an unfounded belief rather than a verifiable truth.

As a result, the Auris became an intolerable presence, their superiority complex proving difficult to endure. This attitude further solidified the alliance between the Humans and Mindweavers, who found solace in each other's company. While the Auris possessed a remarkable aptitude for mana manipulation, displaying prowess in the field of magic, no other race exhibited similar abilities. This, unfortunately, fueled their already inflated egos, reinforcing their belief of being the chosen ones, the superior race.

After listening to the brief history lesson, we descended to the mortal plane. I said my farewells to my siblings and proceeded to follow Serenia and the rest of the group, with Breta by my side. Once we reached a certain point, the Twilight Goddess paused in midair, bowing her head in a show of respect.

"Esteemed Aether," Serenia began, "I will now cast an invisibility spell to conceal you from the mortals' gazes."

Curiosity stirred within me, prompting me to inquire, "Is such a measure truly necessary?"

Serenia's eyes briefly reflected confusion before she responded, "Yes?"

"Hmm, so be it then," I said, "Go on then."

With a wave of her hands, the Goddess conjured a strange divine power that enveloped her. She then directed the energy towards me, and as her "spell" made contact, a look of intrigue crossed my face. Divinitysuch an interesting power, to say the least. I could still see my limbs, but it felt as if a vague barrier now surrounded me. I assumed it was this that prevented the mortals from seeing me.

Serenia turned her attention to Breta and began to speak, "Lady Breta-"

Before she could finish, a radiant light surrounded Breta's form, and when it faded, she vanished from sight. I blinked in surprise, my eyes adjusting to her use of Divinity, allowing me to catch a glimpse of her once again. It was clear that no mortal could perceive her presence now.

"Oh, you didn't mention you could do that," I remarked.

Breta nonchalantly shrugged and replied, "It's not very useful, just trivial tricks."

Respectfully, Serenia nodded and resumed leading the way. My gaze instinctively shifted towards Zeph, noticing a significant change in his demeanor since his previous outburst. He appeared to have mellowed down, avoiding direct eye contact with me.

I shrugged and turned my attention away. With an observant gaze, I took in the landscape as we neared the continent. The location of our descent was a verdant plateau nestled between two towering mountains. Amidst the grassy expanse, a resplendent city constructed from glistening white stones came into view, its skyline adorned with figures soaring through the air. It appeared that the majority preferred flight over walking.

"Oh, an Auris city," I quietly remarked to myself, instantly recognizing the race of winged people.

"That is one of the major cities of the Auris," The Goddess explained.

"I see," I replied, but a frown quickly made its way across my face.

Breta seemed to feel the same way I did, but the minor Deities did not seem to notice any abnormality.

"You sense that?" I asked.

"Yes, the mana here is in disarray," Breta confirmed.

With a determined nod, I spread my wings, taking the lead this time. "Let's proceed," I commanded, prompting the minor deities to swiftly follow as we soared away, leaving the bustling city behind us.

We flew over the large mountain, passing by a few people, but our presence went unnoticed. We didn't get far away from the city when we reached our destination.

"This... Is worse than I expected," I mumbled as I gazed at the scene before me.
