Dragon Knight(Volume 1 chapter 8)

I immediately guarded myself with my hands and closed my eyes. I heard the sound of something being cut but I didn't feel any pain but I didn't know that skeleton even felt pain or not. I could still feel my hand so I opened my eyes to see what the hell was going on. I saw beside me a monster split in half. It was a purple humanoid monster no bigger than a 4-year-old child. I assumed that this humanoid monster had tried to attack me and the beautiful elf has saved my life. Oh, my saviour of life, I want to spend my life with you.

Elf-("Stay behind me, Human")

Is this a miracle of God, did God gave me the power to understand the voice of my love but there was a tone of urgency in her voice. I looked at the direction where my love was pointing her sword. I saw a pair of large glowing eyes glaring at us from the deep forest. The figure of the dragon entered our eyes, even though I knew he was Sam but he was still pretty intimidating as he was 3 metres tall and 9 meters long and had razor-sharp teeth.

Elf-(" A Razor Wing Dragon in the elven forest, But they were supposed to be in the death valley")

The elf started chanting

Elf-(" Spirits of water, heed my call, freeze my enemies in slumber colder than death")

As soon as those words left her mouth. the spell created a series of giant spikes made of ice that thrust up from the ground and were going to pierce Sam. Sam's mouth started glowing and I already knew what was going to happen So I leapt and brought my love to the ground with me and played flat on the ground.

Elf- ("Don't interfere in the fight, Human")

Sam breathed flames from his mouth burning all the ice spikes and the surrounding trees. We were only able to survive that because we were lying flat on the ground or we would have been toast, but why was Sam attacking me even if he wanted to save me from an unknown elf who was pointing her sword on me, that attacked would have surely killed me.

Don't tell me he can't identify me because I am wearing armour and is attacking us with the intention of killing us. As soon as we got up, The black dragon Sam roared and charged at us. My love also prepared her sword to confront the approaching dragon and there was determination in her eyes to protect and to fight. I would have loved to see more of that but the situation had turned a little difficult because either my friend or my new love was going to die today, Well let's say my new love was dying on the day it was born because I don't see any way Sam dying with his monstrous stats except if my love had some hidden trump card but let's not get the situation to that. I used Sprint and jumped between the charging duo

Valor-("STOP, Sam it's me Valor")

Elf- ("Human, You know the dragon")

Valour- ("Yes the dragon is a friend of mine")

Elf- (" Having a city-destroying dragon as a friend, you are not some ordinary human")

Sam- ( " He is a human?")

Elf- (" A dragon capable of speaking the language of the races ")

Valour- ("Well he is quite a fast learner")

While we were having the conversation Asuka jumped on Sam's head and was glaring daggers at my love. Was this jealousy, but I am sorry Asuka I can't answer to your feelings because I already love someone else and I am not attracted to a poisonous spider there is no comparison between the divine beauty of my love and the fangs of Asuka.

Elf- ( " Is that small spider also your friend, It don't looks very friendly")

Valour- (" Yes, she is also our comrade and don't worry she is just a little shy around strangers ")

Elf- ( " I am Christina von Woodgreen, the princess of the elven kingdom of Woodgreen that is in the elven forest on the continent of Alzar")

My love's name is Christina and she is the blue blood, a princess of a kingdom, so are we destined to never be happy like Romeo and Juliet

She is a princess where I am just a Skeleton not only our race but even our social standing is vastly different but I didn't lose my composure and asked

Valour- ("What is the princess of a country doing alone in the forest, where are your escorts ")

Christina made a sad face and said

Christina-(" We were in war with neighbouring human kingdom Linval, Though the war was in slatement for many years the kingdom's summoning of heroes three years ago changed the tide of war, Last night Saint Elene leading the holy army invaded our royal capital. I was forced to flee due to my mother and my escorts were sent in a different direction to confuse the enemy and we were to meet here again at this spot but seeing the corpse, It looks like none of them survived")

It was good news for me that she is a princess of a fallen country but I was sad none the less for her loss. So Elene has become a Saint after stabbing me to death and it has been already 3 years since we died. I wanted to meet Elene to ask the reason for killing me but I still had to save Alex and Lester from Clara and more than that I have to properly deal with Christina first.

Valor- (" Wouldn't telling us about your circumstances endanger your life, We could give you to the holy army or the Linval kingdom ")

Christina-("You already outnumber me and have a dragon with you. I can't resist you either way, but you are strange for a human, only dragon knights can tame dragons but your behaviour does not match to that of a knight ")

Valour- ("What made you think that")

Christina-("The knights will kill an elf without even asking any questions if they are out of the Linval kingdom ")

Valor- ("There are elves in the Linval kingdom?")

Christina-( Linval kingdom is the largest and strongest nation on the Alzar continent. All type of races live in the Linval kingdom including the elves, but rather than that just who are you? What you will do now")

Valor-( " I am Valor, the name is the only thing I remember, I was lost in the dungeon with the dragon and spider. I will become a dragon knight and will shelter you in the Linval kingdom they will never suspect the runaway princess to be on their own kingdom, now will they")

Christina listened to the first part with an amazing face but started laughing after I finished my speech

Christina-("You will shelter me in the enemy base, that is the most weird thing I heard in my 28 years of life ")

she said twenty-eight didn't she, I was 17 when I died, if three years have passed since then now I would be 20 but to think Christina to be 8 years older than me but the elves lived for thousands of year in the game but I didn't know it was true or not in this world.

Valor- ("But first we will head to the dungeon to get stronger and save our friends ")
