The First Fragment (End)

Standing before the Dragon's dead body, Basil had the First Fragment in his grasp. He had extracted it from the chest of the Dragon, where its heart was supposed to be located in.

Even before absorbing it, he could already feel the strong connection it had with him. He didn't connect himself with the Fragment that he already had; however, despite so, his Pacifer Seal got activated by itself.

Humming to himself, he wondered why he couldn't deactivate his Pacifer Seal. He still had full control over his self, however, so he concluded that the activation of his Pacifer Seal was the reaction to the First Fragment's appearance.

He couldn't turn around, lest he should show his Pacifer Seal to the people, which was something he didn't want to happen. This was a very troublesome situation for him since he couldn't just keep showing his back.
