I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Soldiers and LTC. Coil immediately rushed to the LTC. Ibis' room where the alarm came from. But when they got there the door was tightly shut.

They heard a noise from inside. But when they opened the door, all they could see was a messy room and LTC. Ibis lying on the floor unconscious.

LTC. Coil approached him. His face was clearly wounded from the few punches. That means someone did infiltrate here and managed to beat him up.

LTC. Coil only had one guess as to who was in here, making the whole room fall apart as if he was looking for something haphazardly, beating up LTC. Ibis then just ran away.

Inside this room is the crystal key belonging to the Elves. LTC. Ibis insisted that he keep it in the first place.

LTC. Coil didn't make any protest because it would only add to the unnecessary debate.

But now, LTC. Coil was sure that the key had been lost. Those three must have taken it. But how do they know where the key is stored?

They won't be able to immediately know the location of the key unless they have to look behind every closed door or get its location directly from people who know.

'Could it be that Cemetery Wind members are still alive there?' the thought popped into LTC. Coil's head because that's the only possibility that could happen. Otherwise, how would they know that the key was in this room?

LTC. Coil turned to Steve. Steve stood among the other soldiers outside the room.

"Are you sure all your friends are dead?" LTC. Coil asked Steve.

Steve was silent for a moment. A pause that LTC. Coil was able to realize something suspicious.

"I'm sure, sir," Steve replied.

LTC. Coil is still not sure. But in the end, he felt that the question he could ask later.

LTC. Coil told the soldiers to bring the LTC. Ibis to the treatment room. They all immediately obeyed and carried out his orders.

Steve gritted his teeth because he had an idea of ​​what was really going on. One of the group members who had gone with him to use the Fountain of Eternity was still alive.

Steve felt it was a pretty big possibility. Because, if they didn't provide any information, the three soldiers they trapped would not know where they could get the crystal key.

If so, it could be dangerous. Each member of Cemetery Wind is provided with a sophisticated mobile phone which contains many files about their operations. So they can have a guarantee if the boss who ordered them chooses to give them up and make them a scapegoat.

But the phone can only be opened with the user's permission. If the user doesn't allow it and the phone is forcibly opened, then what happens is that the phone will explode. And all the files in it will disappear with it.

That means, if the information is leaked, it means that the phone user is willing to open the phone for them to use.

Maybe they saw it when he jumped into the Portal without waiting for them. Steve thought about the possibility.

'In that case, isn't there a chance someday that they will take revenge on me?' Steve thought anxiously.

When the secret base was in chaos, they didn't realize that a file was circulating on the internet.

The file spread at an incredible speed because it had entered the internet and now, almost all citizens of the Republic of Ascaria had seen it.

When he returned to the room, a satisfied smile formed on Saeldir's face. He stroked his beard while nodding his head.

The crystal key was now in his hand. And as an Archmage, it didn't take him long to find out if it was the real key or not. The key is the original key. Saeldir could feel the power from within every inch of the crystal.

"That's the real key, right?" Billy asked.

"Yes," Saeldir answered without looking at Billy. "The real key."

Billy breathed a sigh of relief in a loud voice so they could all hear him. Erend and Lt. Boartusk too, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

They came out of the room. Saeldir went straight to his own room without saying a word.

While Erend, Billy, and Lt. The Boartusk went to their own rooms with smiles on their faces.

"You remember what LTC. Ibis said earlier?" Billy asked.

"Yes," Erend replied. "Why?"

"He said someone above them actually planned all of this."

"Of course," Lt. Boartusk said. "We still haven't been able to find the man who took the key, how he got into this world, and many other strange things that have yet to be revealed."

They passed through an open corridor. The moon had slipped from its zenith, signaling that the time had passed far from midnight. The cold air blew blowing their white clothes.

"We still don't know much. After all, we're just lowly soldiers fighting on the front lines. We should have died in the bunker but somehow fate made us here now," Erend said.

"What's important now is that our families are safe, our names are clear, and the war with the Elves is over. That means our peaceful lives may be able to return."

"I hope so. You think your peaceful life will return?" Billy asked Erend.

Erend couldn't answer right away. He thought that his peaceful life like before was impossible to return to.

Erend was silent and then looked at the moon in the night sky. Erend now has the power to transform into a Dragon.

He had also heard from Tut himself that he was destined to fight something bigger. Something that would threaten the safety of many worlds.

When Erend thought about it, then his former life couldn't possibly return.

"Well, I don't think so," Erend said, at last.

"Don't worry, buddy." Billy placed a soft fist on Erend's shoulder. "Everything will be fine."

That was all Billy could say. Because he didn't know what else he could say to comfort Erend with the whole situation he was in.

They arrived back in the room and slept for the night. This night ended well.

The crystal key to the Fountain of Eternity has returned to the Elf's hands and evidence of all the conspiracies that framed them has been successfully uploaded to the internet.

The three of them were sure that now everyone in the Republic of Ascaria was looking at the files.

The next morning they woke up feeling much better than before. Before, there had never been such a good feeling when they woke up the next day.

Erend, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk have always felt a constant feeling of anxiety. It's all because they know waking up another day is a struggle to deal with problems that keep coming.

But today the three of them woke up with light hearts. Billy even smiled and greeted Lt. Boartusk.

But Lt. Boartusk didn't feel the need for that greeting. He who is used to living in war raises his fist when he finds Billy's greeting that comes out in a warm tone like the greeting issued by a partner.

Billy immediately apologized before Lt. Boartusk's fist literally floated into his face.

But unlike them, Erend immediately got up from his bed when he opened his eyes.

"I have to go," Erend said.

Billy and Lt. Boartusk stared at his back standing with his back to them.

"Where are you going?" Billy asked.

"The usual," Erend replied. Then a Portal opened in front of him. "I'll probably be gone for a while. I think I will be back when night came."

Then Erend stepped into the Portal. Leaving confusion on Billy and Lt. Boartusk.

"Erend isn't going back to his normal life, is he?" Billy said.

The portal that Erend entered had now disappeared. But Bily and Lt. Boartusk were still staring in the direction where the Portal had been.

"No. He's meant for something big," Lt. Boartusk said.

Erend appears behind a village. The village is located at the foot of the mountain and surrounded by forest.

Erend could see some humans were busy with their activities. But what Erend noticed was not that, but something to the west.

As of now, nothing has appeared on it yet. But Tut said that soon, a calamity would pass by and destroy the village. Just by chance, the village was on the path he was on.

[ Daily Quest: Kill the Dark Mage. ]

[Rewards: 200 Exp. ]

A notification that appeared before his eyes startled Erend.

"After seeing the rewards, I guess it's going to be a tough fight."
