I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Erend sighed again. Because this meant he had to start explaining himself.

'This will be bothersome.'

Erend walked closer to the Sirens. But to his surprise, they took an alert stance. As if preparing to face an impending threat.

Erend blinked a few times. 'Do they consider me as an enemy?'

"Can't you see I just helped you?" Erend asked while pointing towards the sea which is now became calm.

Even though he had no intention of helping them in the first place, he still fought the enemy they were fighting. So basically he did help them.

The Sirens actually put up an alert and ready to fight like that because they were worried about Erend's power.

They can also feel that Erend's power is something very powerful and ancient. Their instincts are stronger than Sharkmans and can sense that power more strongly than them.

Amidst that tension, Corimia walked forward from behind the ranks of Sirens.

Erend who saw her frowned. He noticed that there was a kind of strong leadership aura from the woman with already graying hair.

It was also seen from how the Sirens stepped aside to give way to her. Without her saying anything.

At one glance, Erend could already tell that this woman was the one in charge of this Siren army.

There was a blue and green light that enveloped the area around her lips and throat for a few moments. Then the light disappeared before long.

"Thanks for helping us," Corimia said in human language with a smile. She was using the Magic to communicate with Erend. Just like the Elves.

Erend was grateful because he didn't have to bother asking them not to attack him. There was someone among them he could talk to.

"Your welcome," replied Erend. "I gotta go now."

"Wait," Corimia said. "May I know who you are?"

Erend himself had a bit of trouble explaining himself. Did he have to say that he was a human?

But Erend knew that the Sirens had eliminated that answer from the time he released his power and how he killed the Sharkmans.

"Let's just say I was a person who came at the right time," Erend said. He himself wasn't sure about that answer.

But Corimia just smiled. She took that as a sign that Erend didn't want to explain too much about himself. So, she also doesn't want to force him.

"My name is Corimia," She said, introducing herself politely.

"I, on behalf of everyone here, am grateful because you helped us drive the Sharkmans. It is thanks to you that the Sharkmans did not continue with their intention to go further to the land."

"You can call me Erend," Erend said. Because she had introduced herself first, Erend thought he should at least give his name.

"Erend..." Corimia muttered his name while thinking. But no matter how hard she thought, Corimias couldn't find a proper reference to the name.

"I have to go now." Erend almost summoned Systema to open the Portal for him. But he remembered something.

"Ah, you'd better heighten your power and your army many times over from now. There will be a big disaster in the near future so you have to be prepared," Erend said.

Upon hearing what he said, Corimia's eyes widened instantly. Her body also instantly stiffened.

"That's what I want to say."

Erend then asked Systema to open a Portal for him. Then he entered the Portal and disappeared from their presence.

Erend's departure, which was as surprising as his arrival, silenced the Sirens.

They glanced at each other at their colleague who was next to them. Trying my best to digest what just happened.

"(He's a being of another world, Commander,)" Roan said.

"(I guess so,)" Corimia replied.

The sea breeze gently blows the Sirens who are silent on the beach. The scent of the Sharkmans' corpses strewn around them filled their nostrils.

After only being silent for a while Corimia said. "(Let's clean up the bodies of these Sharkmans. Then return to the Palace.)"

The Sirens who were around her immediately nodded and proceeded to carry out her order.

They cleaned up the Sharkmans' corpses with their water-attributed Magic.

They encased the Sharkmans' corpses in the water. Then gather them into a large ball of water created from their combined Magic.

However, they could not destroy their weapons which were made of very strong stone.

Corimia was the one using more Magic energy to create that huge ball of water.

Once the Sirens had gathered many of the Sharkmans' corpses inside the large ball of water, Corimia sprang into action.

She concentrated on turning the water in the water ball into a very strong acid.

The bodies of the Sharkamans melted into tiny bits of flesh. Not long after, the Sharkmans who had been a brutal beasts turned into a yellowish liquid inside the ball of water.

After a few seconds, the yellowish liquid disappeared and the ball of water became clear again.

Corimia let out a tired sigh. She could only use this powerful Magic now because it required a lot of energy.

They were outnumbered so using that just now would make their risk of losing even greater.

Corimia and the other Siren proceed to do the same to the remaining Sharkmans corpses.

After a few minutes passed, finally the cleaning process ended.

This beach is clear of Sharkmans corpses. Leaving only their weapons that the Sirens couldn't destroy.

So they carried the weapons in a big ball of water into the sea.

Corimia was still thinking about what Erend had said earlier.

'A great disaster is coming? Should I believe what he says?'

Corimia contemplated on the matter until she didn't realize that all the Sirens had gone into the sea.

"(Commander!)" Roan called out. "(You okay?)"

"(Yes,)" Corimia answered. "(I'm coming.)"
