I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Erend and Billy looked up. They saw a black creature flying around the tower. A moment later the creature' rider launched a red lightning bolt that shot towards the tower where the archer Elves were.

The Lightning strike was enormous and created a deafening sound. But unfortunately, the lightning strike hit something invisible and couldn't penetrate it.

There was some kind of magic shield that protected the main tower and the archer tower.

The black creature spun again swiftly towards another tower. They could dodge hundreds of arrows that came at them.

After that, the rider on the creature's back launched another lightning strike.

He keeps doing that. Spinning, dodging arrows, then launching a lightning strike which was again bounced off by the Magic shields of the Elves.

But he didn't give up. Instead, the numbers are growing. Suddenly two other flying creatures joined him.

This continued for a while before an arrow finally hit one of them. The arrow of the Elves hit the rider on his back.

Then because no one was controlling it, the creature flew aimlessly before being hit by a shot as well.

Then it fell with a loud bang on the ground in front of Erend and Billy. They both reflexively jumped back.

But their worries vanished as soon as they saw the rider and the black-winged creature motionless with arrows stuck in their heads.

"What the hell is that thing?" Billy stared with a furrowed brow. His expression was between disgust and curiosity.

"Where's the lieutenant?" Erend asked.

"I don't know," Billy replied.

Erend thought for a moment. Based on Lt. Boartusk's nature, Erend thought of a place where he could be now.

"Did he join the fight?" Erend said.

Billy looked at him. "That's possible if you consider his nature."

Suddenly Laston came from behind and approached them.

"Hey, what are you two doing?" Laston asked in a relaxed tone.

Erend and Billy turned to him. The two of them of course were surprised by Laston looking too relaxed. He even eats grapes.

"Didn't you see there was an attack?" Erend pointed at the corpse of the black-winged creature and its rider behind them.

"Oh? This is the second time the Daemon of Calamity has come to attack," Laston said, stuffing a grape into his mouth.

"Aren't you afraid they'll come in?" Billy asked.

"They won't be able to break through the palace defenses," Laston replied.

"Are you sure?" Erend asked in a tone full of emphasis.

"Yes. Don't worry," Laston said with a smile that seemed to reassure them.

Erend and Billy looked at each other. They have been at war many times. Ironically, they are now seeking refuge in the place of the enemy who attacked them.

Even though they had experienced battles many times, they had never experienced a battle using Magic like this. Because of that, Erend and Billy couldn't predict their current situation. As a result, they could only believe Laston's words.

"Have you eaten?" Laston instead asked as if nothing had happened.

​ "I've eaten," Billy replied.

Erend was silent because he still couldn't take his mind off the sounds of battle around him.

"How about you?" Laston asked Erend.

"No," Erend answered curtly.

"Then eat. I really like today's menu." After saying that, Laston turned and walked away from them.

"Doesn't he look too relaxed?" Erend stared at Laston's distant back.

"He has confidence in the defense of this palace. So, I think we should be sure as well." Billy suddenly changed his mind.

"You don't want to run away anymore?" Erend asked.

Billy shrugged his shoulders. "We can't open the Portal ourselves, can we? Besides, where are we going to run to? Our world doesn't accept us anymore."

Erend was silent and thoughtful. What Billy said was true. Instead of escaping back to Earth and being a fugitive from the country, it's better for them to stay here first.

"Looks like what I said earlier was just a reaction to panicking too much. After fighting for five years, my reaction when I heard the sound of battle was to run or fight." Billy continued.

Suddenly from behind them two black flying creatures along with their riders fell again.

Just like the first one, they died instantly with arrows pierced through their bodies.

"Yeah, looks like we're pretty safe here." Erend stared at the puff of smoke outside the wall. For some reason, he had a bad feeling.

The woman continued to work day and night with little time to rest. She does not work under the pressure of anyone but herself.

Her desire to uncover the secret behind the crystal key and this Elf language created a spark of great energy within her.

That energy allows the woman to work with extraordinary seriousness to translate the words to activate the lock.

Until finally, she began to find the right pieces of words. The woman uttered the snippet.

"Edr-i fen na i Ethuil -o uir..."

The woman said it with a frown on her face full of difficulty. The sentence does sound very simple. But to find the sentence, the woman had to translate thirty pages from a foreign language.

Suddenly after saying that, the crystal key next to the book started to glow. Soon after, a white vortex appeared in front of the woman.

From behind the vortex, the woman can see a glimpse of the beautiful scenery full of flowers. In the middle of the flower circle, there was a pond that seemed to be made of white stone.

The woman was so mesmerized by what was happening in front of her that she didn't realize that someone had already entered the room.

That person is LTC. Ibis. He was amazed to see the vortex that was created in front of him. But he soon got over himself and grabbed his cell phone and made a call.

"The portal is open. Yes! The portal to the Fountain of Eternity! Prepare the troops. We'll be there in a moment."
