[You don't seem scared, human child.]
Kael froze, his breath catching. He slowly lifted his eyes, and that's when he saw the dragon's glowing irises open. Two piercing, intense blue eyes, like jewels containing the very sky, were now fixed on him.
[Well, now it seems like you are, fufufu.] The dragon laughed at Kael.
Kael felt a shiver run down his spine as he heard the dragon's laugh, a low and almost sinister chuckle that echoed in his mind. The sound reverberated through the cave's walls, making him feel small and insignificant in the face of such an immense creature.
"You... you're laughing at me?" Kael asked, his voice wavering, but he forced himself to maintain his posture, not wanting to show more weakness than he already had.
The dragon tilted its head slightly, its eyes fixed on Kael with an intensity that seemed to pierce his soul.
