I Received System to Become Dragonborn

It sounded somehow funny, an Elf - a race that possessed a famously great Magic power - said that Dragon was something fantastic.

The fact that Erend had done this before made it even more surprising.

"When did you do that?" Aurdis asked.

"What?"

"You said you once brought people with your Dragon form. When was that exactly?"

"Oh." Erend tried to remember. "Maybe two days ago."

Aurdis became even more confused. She looked at Erend with a deep frown.

"Two days ago? You did it in your own world?"

Erend was again in a situation where he was having a hard time coming up with an answer.

"No. I did it here," Erend said. "You know, I often do things like saving lives in this world. The Portal will appear and take me to where I am needed."

Auris\'s brows were still furrowed.

The rain is getting thinner, the wind is blowing less and less. But Aurdis didn\'t notice the change because she was too focused on what Erend was saying.

"You showed up where you were needed?"

Erend nodded his head. "This is how my power works. I have to do something to get something."

After hearing Erend\'s explanation, Aurdis\' curiosity about Erend\'s power grew even more intense.

There was a big torch that seemed to be suddenly lit in Aurdis\' heart.

Back then, she was only interested in Erend because he had the power of a Dragon.

Dragons are god-like beings who are said to have perished in her world.

It was only natural that when Aurdis realized the existence of the Dragon\'s power within Erend, she became very curious and approached Erend.

​ Aurdis did not think that all that would lead them to this moment.

"Your powers are mysterious. Even those of us who have mastered Magic still can\'t understand all that," Aurdis said.

"Well, there\'s still a lot I don\'t understand about this power to," Erend replied.

Erend looked around and realized that the rain had almost stopped.

He then looked at his MP.

[ MP: 50/70 ]

Erend still wasn\'t sure that with his current MP, he could carry Aurdis in his Dragon form.

Moreover, he had just used a Skill to dry and warm their bodies.

"Looks like we\'ll have to wait a bit longer," Erend said. "Sorry but I have to wait until my energy is replenished."

Aurdis shook her head with a smile. "It\'s okay."

So, the two of them returned to enjoy time together under the big tree.

Even Star the stallion hadn\'t let out a grunt since earlier. He was acting so calm as if he wanted to give this time to the two of them.

Aurdis took out food and drink from her magic cloth bag.

"How many can you fit in there?!"

That was the reaction Erend showed when he saw Aurdis take out a lot of things from there.

Aurdis only gave a small smile. After that she gave a piece of bread to Erend.

The bread is rectangular and bulging. Because the outer skin was white and transparent, Erend could see that there was some sort of yellowish cream inside.

The cream looks like butter, or mayonnaise.

"What is this?" Erend asked while looking at the bread.

"Watercress Bread," Aurdis replied.

Actually, the name of the bread sounds different in Quenya.

But with the communication Magic that Aurdis cast, that\'s what its name would be like if translated into human language.

"Try it. It\'s delicious," Aurdis said.

She immediately took a bite of her own after saying that.

Seeing Aurdis\' happy expression after taking a bite of the bread, Erend took a bite of the bread in his hand.

As soon as his teeth penetrated the thin outer skin of the bread, Erend\'s tongue was immediately greeted with melted cream.

The cream has the perfect blend of sweet, savory, and salty. The texture is also very soft.

Erend\'s eyes opened wide and gave a twinkle of happiness.

"What do you think? Delicious, right?" Aurdis asked.

Erend nodded his head many times quickly to acknowledge Aurdis\'s words.

Aurdis chuckled seeing Erend\'s childlike expression when he ate the bread.

Erend usually only has a firm and stern expression on his face. Especially after he had just slaughtered his enemy.

However, it seems that this time Aurdis can see a different side of Erend.

A warm and adorable side that he might never show to anyone.

They spent some time enjoying the bread and chatting for a few more minutes.

Waiting for Erend\'s MP to recover again.

Currently, Aerchon was in the same room as Saeldir. It was the room where the Magic Shield core was.

Saeldir refused to leave the room no matter what. Because of that Aerchon - reluctantly - had to indulge his desire to speak here only.

The atmosphere of the room was heavy for Saeldir. But he didn\'t let the pressure appeared on his face.

Instead, Saeldir sat while crossing his arms and legs.

And looked Aerchon right in the eye.

Saeldir\'s attitude seemed to show that he was ready to accept whatever Aerchon would say.

"(So you two conspired together to go to the Forest Elf\'s place without me knowing?)" Aerchon asked. His tone was sharp.

"(Yes,)" Saeldir answered matter-of-factly.

"(Why?)"

"(Because its no use asking you for help.)" Saeldir looked Aerchon straight in the eye.

He didn\'t budge even though he saw Aerchon\'s eyes getting narrower like a dagger ready to fly to his heart.

"(Tell me what you mean, Saeldir. You\'ve been saying some bold things since yesterday. Even I think that\'s being too bold.)"

There was a cold threat behind Aerchon\'s low voice. Saeldir could feel that.

But Saeldir was tired of all the pressure he was feeling and decided that he didn\'t care anymore.

"(You\'re too temperamental. I can\'t stand your attitude anymore. So offten that you ignore the obvious truth because you let your emotions take over your brain. So you make decisions that make big losses for all of us,)" Saeldir said.

"(I don\'t want to talk to you because of that.)"
