I Received System to Become Dragonborn

But right now everything is far from normal. A lot of things have happened recently, starting with stolen keys, Ogres Kingdom and the Daemon of Calamity attacking at odd times, and of course the appearance of a Dragonborn.

The latter was definitely something more bizarre. Especially when Saeldir had seen what was behind that power.

The appearance of a Dragonborn who could completely transform into a Dragon with such terrifying power shook this Realm. Especially when that power is possessed by a human from another Realm that doesn't know the power of Magic.

That must have provoked a very big question mark. If Saeldir had the chance, he wanted to dissect Erend Drake's body and see what was inside.

But Saeldir only wanted to know about the power of his Dragonborn. Not something that lies behind that power.

Saeldir could imagine the feelings of the army of the Ogres Kingdom and the Daemon of Calamity when they saw a Dragon destroy them.

A Dragon, the mighty creature that was said to be extinct, appeared before them and slaughtered them like helpless insects.

Suddenly, something appeared in Saeldir's mind. Something that might be the reason why the Daemon of Calamity kidnapped Erend Drake's friends instead of killing them.

Maybe they did it because they were attracted to Erend Drake's power. Or rather, whoever's behind them and pulling the strings wants that power.

As he had previously thought, Daemon of Calamity didn't usually choose to spare life when they got the chance.

Something that could make them change their behavior and lead them to kidnap was definitely not someone to be trifled with. Most likely he was also a traitor within this Elf palace.

"Hhh..." Saeldir sighed. He had to focus on the one thing that was most important right now. Strengthening the Magic shield core until a replacement came.

This magic shield core is made of very rare material and only appears in one place. A peak of a mountain called the Mountain of Full Moon.

Saeldir had already ordered some Elves to take the material from the top of the mountain and now it was only a matter of waiting for them to return. Until then, he had to find a way to keep the core functioning.

Saeldir opened the book in front of him. Trying to divert his mind from the big problems.

Suddenly the door opened. Saeldir wanted to snap at whoever opened the door suddenly without knocking. But as soon as he saw who had entered, Saeldir couldn't help but sigh.

Aurdis came along with Erend. They walked with wide strides to get to him quickly. Saeldir looked back at his book and asked in an even tone. But he Doesn't forget to use Magic so that his voice is translated into human language.

"What?"

"We need your help," Aurdis said.

Saeldir already thought that was what Aurdis would say.

"I can't," Saeldir replied. Aurdis approached Saeldir and sat in front of him.

"Please help us. With your abilities, we can save those humans more quickly!"

"Why should I save them?" Saeldir asked without taking his eyes off the pages of his book.

Aurdis looked at Saeldir as if she wanted to throw the thick book in his face. Aurdis had no time for this debate.

But even so, she already knew that this kind of reaction she would get from Saeldir.

"You do realize that everything that's been happening lately is very strange, right?" Aurdis said.

Saeldir's hand that was turning the pages of the book stopped in the middle.

"I think there is a traitor in this Elf palace," Aurdis said in a very confident tone.

She didn't need to explain everything because Aurdis knew Saeldir wasn't stupid. He must have noticed that too.

"So?" Saeldir asked.

"Whatever the Daemon of Calamity is planning to do by kidnapping those humans, it's definitely not a good thing."

Saeldir also thought so. But he didn't really care about the humans so he chose to ignore it all.

The possibility of a human being kidnapped and going to be used to make plans to attack the Elves again, flashed through his head. But Saeldir chose to focus on finding a way to defend the Magic shield core first. Aerchon will be back in a few days.

Now that Aurdis said that, Saeldir realized that the matter was quite important. Especially when he connected it to everything that was happening.

"How will those humans be of use to their plans?" Saeldir asked.

Aurdis shook her head. "I don't know about that yet. But I'm sure they have something to do with it. Have you ever heard of the Daemon of Calamity kidnapping and not killing on the spot?"

Saeldir looked away from his book and looked at Aurdis. "We don't know if the humans are still alive or not. They could have been killed somewhere."

Erend who had been just a spectator walked closer to Saeldir. "We don't know about that either."

Saeldir turned to Erend. Erend's voice sounded like a cold growl.

Saeldir suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. But he tried his best not to show it on his face. Instead, Saeldir looked at Erend with flat eyes and still looked unconcerned.

"Then what do you want to do now?" Saeldir asked. "You want to go straight to the heart of Mount Calamity alone?"

Erend gritted his teeth. "If I have to. If that's what I need to do to save them."

"Then you are stupid," Saeldir said. "You may have the power of a Dragon. But won't you be able to use it to save them? You will only join in killing your friends in your rage."

Erend stared at Saeldir for a while with clenched jaws. What Saeldir said was true. He didn't know anything about the place where the Daemon of Calamity lived.

Acting rashly and going on a rampage will only get his friends killed. But Erend also knew that he had to do it.

"Please. I beg of you. Please help us," Erend finally pleaded with Saeldir. On the figure of an Elf that he always hated.

The Elves who had made his life and everyone else in the bunker miserable. Erend recalled the faces of his friends who died on the spears of the Elves.

But they are dead. There was nothing he could do to save the dead. But at least he could still save his friends who were still alive.

Even by swallowing his anger and pleading with this Elf.

Saeldir stared at Erend for some time without saying anything. Aurdis did not say anything either.

The room was suddenly silent for a few seconds which seemed a very long time.

"There is one way to save them," Saeldir finally spoke. "I can do it. But I'll have to go there myself. If anything happens to this sphere I won't be able to do anything."

"Everything will be fine. I'm sure," Aurdis said with a firm nod.

"How can you be so sure?" Saeldir asked.

But Aurdis couldn't find the answer right away.

"You want to risk everything for this human?" Saeldir asked again.

"We've troubled them a lot, Saeldir," Aurdis replied with a gentle face.

Saeldir shook his head. "You've always been like this since you were little. I can't understand you at all."

Saeldir then stood up and walked toward one of the shelves. Then he took out a sword wrapped in a white sheath and covered in dust.

"Let's go. The sooner we go. The sooner the humans are saved," Saeldir said.

Erend nodded his head. "Yeah."

Aurdis stood up and wanted to catch up with them but Saeldir immediately stopped him.

"You're not going anywhere." Saeldir looked at Aurdis firmly.

"B-But-"

"No, Princess!" Saeldir snapped at Aurdis. "If you come with us, you will only add to the burden."

Saeldir's words made Aurdis flinch. But he didn't say anything after that. Saeldir gave Erend a look and led him out of the room.

Erend turned to Aurdis and spoke. "You're safer here."

After that Erend gave Aurdis a final smile and then went to catch up with Saeldir.

Aurdis could only sigh. What Erend and Saeldir said was true. She could be a burden there.

Then her position as a princess can also be more difficult if they are caught. So Aurdis will stay in this palace.

She sat on the chair previously occupied by Saeldir and then read the book in front of her. At least even if she just sat here, Aurdis would make herself useful.

Saeldir and Erend entered the room where the platform used for teleportation was located.

Erend followed Saeldir up onto the platform.

"What exactly are we going to do?" Erend asked.

"We're going to infiltrate Mount Calamity." A blue light appeared around them. And a moment later they disappeared.
