I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Saeldir, who had looked shocked, now calmed down.

He tried to think rationally again about what he had just heard.

"How did you know about that?" Saeldir asked.

Everything Erend said did sound reasonable and convincing.

From Erend's tone and expression, Saeldir could see that he was telling the truth. Or believe that he is telling the truth.

However, it is very big news. Saeldir thought that making sure everything was clear would be much better.

Before he and Aurdis were made to feel more anxiety because of that information.

On the other hand, Erend found it difficult to explain how he knew all that.

A troubled look formed on Erend's face. He didn't answer until a few moments later.

"I can't find a proper explanation for you guys. Let's just say... I have a reliable source," Erend said.

"What source is that?" Saeldir asked again.

Of course, he would ask again. And Erend knows it.

Even this time, Aurdis was also staring at him.

"I got this from 'something' that gave me this power."

Erend's answer made Saeldir and Aurdis frown.

The answer is the same as not answering anything.

However, Saeldir and Aurdis realized that there really was an extraordinary force, which even their power as an advanced Magic users could not reach.

Asking Erend everything in depth would be fruitless.

Aurdis and Saeldir exchanged glances. The two Elves knew about it.

So they decided not to question it any further and move on to more important matters.

"Alright, it doesn't matter where the information comes from," Saeldir said. "Do you have a way to fight that Calamity?"

Erend took a deep breath before answering that question.

"I have a bit of an idea."

Saeldir nodded. He decided to believe in Erend. Just by hearing that simple answer.

Considering what Erend had done, if he were to say that he had a way to deal with that Calamity, then he probably could.

Maybe later he wi share his plan after everything has been set.

"I think we can postpone the discussion about Calamity," Aurdis said. "Now we have to talk about our plans regarding the Magic that exists in this world."

"Aurdis is right," Saeldir agreed. "What exactly are we going to do?"

"About that, we have thought of several ways. With you here, this operation will be much easier," Adrien said.

Throughout that night, they spent time discussing plans on how they would remove Magic abilities from the humans who became experimental subjects.

~~~

Steve and Annie were in the practice room.

They have done this many times. And now their abilities have improved a lot compared to when they just got their Magic power.

Annie who previously had weak control over her Magic now can use her Magic as easily as walking.

After doing many practices, she now never loses control again.

All the anger and worry that used to surround her when she wanted to use her Magic was now gone.

If Annie could grow that fast in a few days, of course, Steve, who had good control of Magic from the start, would become even stronger.

Their practice room now seemed to have turned into a fantasy world setting.

The flames danced through the air like obedient living creatures. The fire filled half of the concrete field area.

On the other half of the field, large, pointed blocks of ice were sticking up. Like the horns of monsters buried under the concrete.

Annie stood atop the tallest ice pillar. Her head almost touched the roof of the room.

Her chest rose and fell as she caught her breath. Her body was wet because of the melted ice.

However, some parts of her body are still covered by ice which previously became her armor.

She glanced at Steve who was also staring at her.

Steve was shirtless so that the steam coming out of his body could be seen clearly.

Steve was also breathing fast. Even in his hands, there is still a small flame that has not been extinguished.

He grinned. "Are you tired? Shall we end today's session?"

"No," Annie replied between sighs of her. "Let's continue."

"Are you sure? It looks like your Magic energy is running low," Steve said.

"I can still go on with this. You don't need to worry," Annie replied.

Steve snorted. "Whatever you say."

Steve had no idea how Annie could be this ambitious. She seemed like she didn't want to lose even once in the battle they had.

Even though she was previously a timid and shy girl. The difference between her before and now seems very far.

Does Magic also affect human nature? The question could not be ignored by Steve and of course, the scientists who are always watching them.

Three ice spears formed around Annie's head.

When he saw her, Steve was even more convinced that Annie had indeed run out of her Magic energy.

Previously, she had never created less than five ice spears.

Steve grinned and raised the flames in his hands.

'This will be another easy win.'

Annie shot her ice spears at Steve.

Steve made a forward punching motion. He sent flames toward the ice spears that were coming toward her.

*SWOOSSHHH!*

Steve's fire attack instantly destroyed the ice spears. But Steve's vision was closed for a while.

That opportunity was used by Annie to rush at him and swing out an ice-encrusted fist.

*DUAGHH!*

Annie's fist hit Steve hard. But that wasn't enough to make him fall.

And of course, Annie knew about it.

They had fought so many times before Annie could understand how much Magic Steve was capable of.

"HYAHHH!"

Annie shouted while swinging her other fist.

*PAKK!*

This time Steve caught her fist.

Annie saw the smirk on Steve's face. But a moment later Steve's smirk disappeared as soon as he saw that same smirk on Annie's face.

"You must think that my Magic energy is completely depleted, right?"
