The Heir's Arrival

"I met the True Dragon King when I was 1000 years old and served him for 1000 years. And when I reached the age of 2010 years old, I was surprised when the King returned to the castle with 2 little twins with reddish pink hair... I can't be sure if they are children of the True Dragon King or not because I have never seen their mother. But when I dared to ask him, the True Dragon King only replied, that they both are his heirs."

To say that the two children were the inheritors of the True Dragon King meant that the True Dragon King was admitting that they had blood relations with him. However, it does not directly mention what kind of relationship they have.

That implied statement caused many questions for True Dragon King's subordinates, who were surprised by the arrival of the twins, including Piwood. All of his subordinates wondered whether they were his direct descendants or the descendants of his brother whom he brought over?

"If they are twins... Then what about their different races??"

"I've never asked the True Dragon King or the Princess but, I suspect that their mother is a Human." Dragon races who marry humans will produce a new race, namely Dragonoids. And that is the basis of Piwood's thinking.

"W-wait a minute... I still don't quite get it. That's weird, if they were born from the same mother... Lucia should also have an impure race like Lucian."

"Yes, from the start they were human it was certain that they were both Dragonoids. However, it was easy for the True Dragon King to change their race, because before the True Dragon King died. He passed some of his power to Lucia, and with that Lucia turned into a pure Dragon Race, and leave Lucian with his Dragonoid race."

Evan was speechless when he spoke of a figure that even the laws of nature were subject to. Changing races might be as easy for a True Dragon King as turning a palm.

But what made Evan even more curious was why the True Dragon King gave his power and changed Lucia's race from Dragonoid to pure Dragon Race.

"But there's a reason isn't there?" Evan was sure that the True Dragon King was not showing favoritism to his heir for some strange reason that he only loved Lucia.

"Yes, the True Dragon King did that for Lucia's sake. Since she was first brought here, she was a weak and sick girl. Unlike Lucian who had a healthy body. She needed special care to support her life. And that's when the True Dragon King asked me and Gerrow to take care of her." Piwood paused in his steps to explain how pathetic Lucia had been in the past.

"So the True Dragon King sacrificed some of his strength for Lucia's healing?" Evan did not expect that this majestic creature turned out to be the same as fathers in general who are willing to sacrifice for their children.

But of course, it became a ticking time bomb because back then, the True Dragon King didn't tell Lucian that hid sister had received some of his power.

"Yes, but because of that, the destruction for Lucia began. Lucian's hatred overflowed when he found out that the True Dragon King had given some of his power to Lucia.

240 years after the True Dragon King died, Lucian raged because Lucia did not continue the True Dragon King's fight for world domination. And ended up in a sibling fight. Lucian lost and was sealed by Lucia in the Abyssal Rift. This was done by Princess because Prince's goal was inversely proportional to her goal of wanting to live without war."

And this is what makes the kingdom led by Lucia fail and hide in the Dark Forest. Lucia, who could not explain the situation, sealed her brother in the abyss and killed every renegade Clan Lord.

"But luckily Lucian was willing to obey me, and stopped going after Lucia." Evan breathed a sigh of relief because Lucian, who became the most incredible power, had promised him and was now a part of Darkness Castle again.

"Yes, My King is all thanks to you being reborn. Since they are now the main force of Darkness Castle, what we should do now is for the two of them to get along and work together."

"Why do we have to do that? Hasn't our main enemy been wiped out??" Not only defeating the Lamia Race, who was very ambitious to kill Lucia and take the throne of Darkness Castle. However, Evan also managed to subdue the Abyss Dominator.

"You're being too humble, My King. I noticed it a bit when you made the Dark Forest barren. You must be intent on taking over the Dark Forest." Piwood tried to guess what Evan wanted to do after he got some hints.

"No-no, how could I do such a tiring thing now. The strength of Darkness Castle is only you, Lucia and Lucian. How could I send all the great warriors on an adventure." Wandering in the Dark Forest to subdue all the creatures that lived there, that tiring activity wasn't what Evan wanted to do right now.

"Yes indeed it is very tiring. And that's why you destroyed the entire Dark Forest to get them to come here. Then you easily slaughtered them."

"Eh, what do you mean they will come here??" Evan was a little scared when he heard Piwood's opinion.

"Of course, they will be here for revenge because their food source has been destroyed and maybe some of them also died from the deadly effects of the Cursed Sword." Piwood enjoyed guessing Evan's plans.

'That didn't occur to me?!' Evan was taken aback by the prediction Piwood had said. It never occurred to him, let alone about the attack that would be carried out on Darkness Castle. But what was clear was that he had to prepare a plan if it did happen.
