I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Chapter 393 Bad News



However, Aurdis thought otherwise. If Erend heard her call even when he was sleeping, Erend would usually wake up anyway. Aurdis had contacted him via telepathy that time when he was sleeping and for Erend it shouldn't be a problem answering her calls even though he was still sleeping.

That's why Aurdis was worried.

"(We don't need to worry about that now. Maybe Erend is still sleeping because he's so tired,)" Saeldir said. "(We can contact him tomorrow, right? We don't need to worry.)"

Saeldir tried to calm Aurdis because he was also worried about her. She, just like himself and Aerchon must be feeling very tired now. If he didn't try to calm her down, maybe Aurdis would do something rash.

"(I guess you're right,)" Aurdis said. She knew that she thought under these circumstances her brain would only come up with stupid ideas. So Aurdis decided to give up on her tiredness and chose to rest while trying to tell herself that Erend is indeed fine.

Aurdis and Aerchon went to their room to rest while Saeldir immediately lay down on the bed without bothering to clean up all the books and equipment that were scattered in his room.

Even so, Saeldir felt a strange premonition in his heart. He who had closed his eyes opened his eyes again. He felt that hunch not only because of Erend who Aurdis couldn't reach, but as soon as he heard about it his mind suddenly went straight to Arty.

If something indeed happened to Erend then Arty will almost certainly be affected as well.

Saeldir sighed. "(Let's just hope that is not the case.)"

He tried to think positively and then let his sleepiness lead him to dreamland.

Adrien and Billy were currently in their car at high speed because they wanted to get away from the presidential palace as soon as possible. In their chests, their hearts were pounding as they both knew great danger was boiling.

"What will he do next, Captain?" Billy asked in a panicked tone.

"How the fuck am I supposed to know?" Adrien replied in a calm tone but underneath it, he has the same fear as Billy. "He possessed a president so surely there will be many things he can do with his power."

Billy clicked his tongue as he looked out the window. "The creature is pretty smart. I didn't expect it to move so fast before Aurdis found a way to drive it away. It could even get Erend out of here."

It is also a big problem for them. They both just talked about it shortly after Erend left, as if foreshadowing the bad luck they will experience.

If Erend, as their strongest hitter who could deal massive damage to the creatures from the Chaos Realm, don't present, then what could they do?

That's what Adrien and Billy are currently thinking as they continue to drift away without knowing where to go.

"Where are we going now, Captain?" Billy asked.

Adrien sighed with a helpless expression. "We can't possibly go home. I'm sure the president will immediately order his men to look for us."

Billy took a deep breath when he heard that.

"Maybe we could go to the former dojo building," Adrien suggested.

"Yeah. I think that's the best place for us right now." Billy agreed because he didn't see any other option.

They drove toward the former dojo building and then hid the car in an alley next to the building. Luckily no light shone down the alley so the car was well hidden. Since this place was also a bit far from the main road it wouldn't be easy to see the car.

They scanned around before they finally entered the building and locked the door. After that Adrien and Billy slumped down, they leaned their bodies against the wall. Not a word was spoken between them because they had too much to think about right now.

"Is it only Erend who can contact Aurdis?" he asked.

"Unfortunately, yes, Captain," Billy replied in a helpless tone.

All this time it was Erend who did a lot of their work including establishing contact with the Elves.

"Wait," Adrien said, suddenly remembering something. "We can use Magic already, right? Why don't we try using it to contact them?"

Billy turned to him. "You think we're capable enough to use our Magic for that now?"

Adrien's face showed an expression of uncertainty. Even so, he wanted to try that first.

"Let's try it first," Adrien replied. "And hope that we will succeed."

Billy immediately nodded. He also realized that even if they weren't sure they should succeed. Or the situation here will be worse than the chaos that preceded it.

Adrien and Billy immediately meditated and put their thoughts out of what was going on here, at least for now. They divided the tasks, Adrien would try to contact Erend while Billy would contact Aurdis.

Both of them only base their aim to contact Erend and Aurdis on the mental image they have. Based on what they saw from Erend, they should simply imagine the person they wanted to contact and focus their thoughts on them. And then just like that, they will be connected via telepathy.

At least that's what they hoped for. However, Billy and Adrien could not contact them. Because of that, they decided to rest for the night and try again the next day.

As soon as tomorrow's sun rises, they try again to contact Erend and Aurdis.

~~~

Aurdis' eyes jerked open as soon as she heard the voice in her head, she who was tired was now fully awake.

'Billy?' Aurdis asked.

'Yes! Oh my god! I finally managed to reach you!' Billy said via telepathy on the other side.

Aurdis frowned. Previously Billy had never been the one who contacted her first and that made Aurdis feel worried.

'What happened?'

Billy then proceeds to tell what happened last night. About Erend suddenly disappearing, most likely because one of the creatures of the Chaos Realm had done something to him. And now the person that the creature possessed is the person in power so it can get worse if it's not dealt with immediately.

Aurdis, who heard Billy's explanation, immediately jumped off her bed. 'I'll be there soon. And we have completed the spell to drive the creatures back to the Chaos Realm.'

'That's good. Sorry to bother you so early in the morning.'

'Don't worry about that. I'll be right there with Aerchon and Saeldir.'

After that, their telepathic call ended. Aurdis immediately went to Aerchon's room and woke him up by force by saying that a dangerous situation had occurred. Aurdis woke up Saeldir in the same way.

After they gathered Aurdis explained what she had heard from Billy. Aerchon and Saeldir's faces immediately turned pale.

"(This is bad,)" said Aerchon. "(Erend is an important key to this plan. If he disappears I don't know what we should do.)"

"(Erend disappeared after he met the creature that possessed their ruler. So I believe he is now in Chaos Realm,)" Aurdis said.

"(That's worse. He's already there without knowing what to do. He could be in danger and we won't be able to contact him to tell him our plan,)" Saeldir said.

They fell into silence as they no longer knew what to do.

"(What about Arty and Erend's mother?)" Saeldir asked.

"(Billy and Adrien are now trying to find them. The creature must be ordering his minions to look for the two of them because they managed to escape from him,)" Aurdis replied.

"(We have to go there now,)" Aerchon said.

Aurdis and Saeldir felt that it was the best idea for now. They immediately packed all the things they needed and immediately left.

~~~

Arty felt her Magic energy gradually recovering bit by bit. This place, although it looks suspicious Arty and her mother don't feel that this place is dangerous.

Arty, who was originally in a lying position, now got up to sit. She glanced at her mother who was sitting cross-legged beside her.

"Mom, you alright?" Arty asked.

Her mother smiled. "I'm fine, Arty. How about you?"

"I think I feel better now," Arty said. "We have to find a way to get out of here. But I don't know how."

Her mother let Arty think silently. She had seen how Arty could fly her and actually felt that there was something different about her daughter a few days ago.

"Mom, I'll try to contact Erend now," Arty said. "Hopefully, I can call him and get us out of here."

Her mother just nodded with a faint smile. She was going to let Arty do what she wanted to do without asking much because it was clear Arty knew more about all of this than her.
