Chapter Four :The Spear King's Art[3]

Well, well, dragons are strong, proud, beautiful, and majestic creatures.

If you ask anyone what is the first thing you think of when you hear "dragon", you will automatically find that he is afraid...

You might ask me why I say this.

Well, I see a dragon from here, and it seems it is a little far from me, but it sees me...

How did I know that? Because it is staring in my direction.

By the way, I don't even know where I am.

And I don't know how or when I arrived at this place.

This place looks like a mountainous uninhabited area, and at the same time some waterfalls pass by here! Which, funnily, gather in the place of the dragon.

The second thing I noticed is that I cannot move.

As if I cannot control my body...

And this is not a beautiful feeling at all. I mean, who loves not to control his body?

Suddenly, a loud sound echoed, and I realized it was the dragon. Let me say it was a very annoying and terrifying sound...

My body started moving on its own, and the face seems to be heading toward the dragon.

Well, after I got close to it—close enough to put its finger,

Or rather, I should say its claw, on my chest, specifically above my heart...

At this moment, what was completely expected happened...

I felt pain; a lot of pain, so much that for the first time in my life I wished for death...

Well, I suffered a lot; so much that my voice from the screaming started to disappear, and no longer appeared on my face except tears of pain;

And to tell you the truth, it is the most uncomfortable experience I have ever had in my life...

After what seemed like eternity, suddenly the pain disappeared without any warning; and the red dragon that pressed on my chest appeared before me...

The dragon turned into a human shape, and to tell the truth, it was the most beautiful thing I have seen in my two lives...

I mean, red hair, a full body, and a small face that you want to protect, with yellow eyes that make you feel like it's looking into your thoughts.

"Well, I hear your thoughts,"

The dragon said, which made me open my eyes wide.

"Well, well, I don't have much time, so I will tell you what happened and you will discover the rest as soon as

you wake up from this sleep,"

The dragon said as she looked into my eyes.

"First, I am not called the dragon, but call me Silvia Belisuron, one of the strongest dragons in the world,"

As soon as she said that, I was shocked. I mean, there are five great dragons, and suddenly you discover that one of them is in front of you.

"You are dead."

This logically means my heart was pierced a while ago, right?

"That's why I helped you by planting a new heart for you,"

And in your opinion, what is the heart that was planted for you?

I thought of something unexpected and muttered in a loud voice:

"A dragon's heart,"

"Correct answer, I planted a dragon's heart in you!

I know you are thinking why I did that, but believe me, you will discover the reason, and you will discover it the hard way, O chosen one; or should I say, Eirin Brown~"

She said that with a hint of amusement in her voice.

"Well, boy, for giving you my heart, I want only one task from you,"

She said, and seriousness appeared on her beautiful face.

"When you wake up, you will discover you are in the room of the book you are looking for; after you take what you want, you will find a dragon egg that is a bit big, but you can hide it in your body; do not leave until you master how

to hide it because it is a dragon egg. You will be killed literally so that this egg is taken from you."

She said, and I automatically thought of all the possible possibilities for this request, and yet I was surprised. I mean, a dragon egg.

"Oh, and you will discover something new after you get out. I hope you like it,"

She said, and suddenly my vision turned to darkness.

"Goodbye, O chosen one, I hope you help me in the future, or there will be no future; for us, or for you, isn't that so, my king"

Said the dragon, and a tear was falling from one of her eyes.

...

....

Several hours passed while I was unconscious, or so I thought.

I mean, I slept a little and woke up to find that two days had passed;

You may ask me how I knew; I will tell you through that device that looks like a phone that is in my hand

now...

But seriously, what is this dream, and that beautiful lady? If we take a beauty scale out of 100, she deserves 90 without even opening her eyes at all.....

And if she opens her eyes, the 100 full points are achieved with a smile from her...

After I got out of my thoughts, I started looking around to know my place and how to get out. The first thing I noticed is that my vision improved a lot. I couldn't see in the dark this clearly, then I remembered what the dragon said while I was muttering in a low voice:

Status:

Name: Eirin Brown

Gender: Human (Half Dragon)

Gift:EX

Rank:E+

Strength:E+

Mana: E

Endurance:E+

Intelligence:D-

Magic:E+

Luck:S

Art:Flash Strike Art (Two stars)

An art that allows faster and stronger spear strikes by 90% for the critical hit.

Skills:

Reader's Mind (EX):

Helps you think 5 times faster than normal so that time seems to slow down, and you resist all kinds of mental attacks and are not affected by

the author's abilities.

Dragon Presence (S) (Passive):

Most creatures and monsters fear you and instinctively move away from you; you can release a mysterious pressure that affects all creatures equal to or below your rank.

"How amazing"

That's all I could say at this moment after seeing my status; I mean, really, I jumped a whole rank and became at the bottleneck of another rank..

But suddenly I noticed that I became half a dragon..

"What the hell is this"

I said as I looked at my status and thought it was never mentioned that a person was half a dragon..

I pushed the dragon's thoughts to the back of my mind and started thinking about the novel and remembered something that made me smile automatically...

"I could be at the same rank as the protagonist when he entered the academy"

I said as I remembered that the original novel's protagonist was at rank D; and the author was at rank E+...

Well, I'll think about this later, the important thing now is to find that art and get out of this place..

I didn't tell you the art I'm looking for, did I?

It's one of 6 arts of rank 5 stars mentioned in the novel, and it's the art of the first hero (Zero Max), the spear hero and the owner of the art I was targeting...

You'll ask me why no one took this art until now,

Well, there is a dragon guarding this art, and it's worth mentioning that it traps most who come in an intense illusion art that makes them leave from here, meaning unless you have mental resistance of rank SS, do not come to this place....

And I have the reader's mind of the ultimate rank EX

"Man, you feel like this art was put here for me"

I said loudly, laughing as I thought about these coincidences...

I didn't know how terrible coincidences could be.

After a little search in this basement, I found what I was looking for

Zero Max Style

I murmured in a low voice as I looked at the book in front of me

The first thing I thought was: "It really looks like what was mentioned in the novel"

Yes, a book in dark red color that you feel will struggle if you try to take it with more force than necessary...

I took the book with all caution and brought it close to my head...

I didn't tell you how to learn the art, did I? Well, it's kind of easy; all you have to do is take it and bring it close to your head, and the book will fade and turn into particles that

transfer to your head...

Easy, isn't it....

As soon as I did that and the book turned into particles and entered my head, nothing happened; even I was shocked. I mean, things can't be this easy....

I wish I hadn't said anything....

"Ah"

Suddenly pain hit my head; yes, not like the previous pain, but it was painful too;

Not knowing the reason made me think about comparing between the groaning and my pain. Seriously, I am not this trivial...

The pain lasted for about thirty minutes until my consciousness faded....

.

Suddenly I woke up in a strange place, in a room similar to those you know from royal halls; and what is in every royal room.....

Yes, there is a throne..

You may ask me why I say this; well, that's because there is a person sitting on the throne directly in front of me....

This person looks in his fifties; with light white hair and a muscular body that stands out even under his white clothes....

He looked at me and said:

"It seems my art's heir has arrived; or should I say, the chosen one"

I stepped back instinctively after hearing this man's words

"Don't worry, I have no bad intentions for you, in the end I am just a remnant of a soul"

The man said, maintaining a neutral expression...

"Well, I didn't want to scare you; but I must test you because this art should not fall into the wrong hands no matter what"

The man said, and the pressure around him increased; until I saw some dust particles rising from the ground

"Well, your test is kind of easy; you just have to kill me"

I opened my eyes wide because I knew who was talking..

He is the first hero, the owner of the strongest spear style humanity has known (Zero Max)...

Well, I was taken out of my thoughts when I noticed a spear heading toward me at a really high speed...

I did the only thing I could do to avoid it

Jumped left to the empty area; a decision that seemed bad; because I saw the same spear heading to the place I was going....

I barely dodged it by rolling my body and rolling on the ground; only to be surprised that the spear wounded my left arm...

"Ah"

I groaned from the pain as I ran away and thought about this crazy man..

I mean, who fights a person he hasn't spoken to a word until this moment....

After I moved away from the spear, the man spoke and said:

"Why are you so weak! Get up and start attacking me"

The man rushed directly toward me; the notable thing is that I was able to follow his movements with my eyes and it seems I am getting better

at fighting...

I mean, I was able to dodge his next strikes with ease; and I feel my blood boiling, which is a new feeling for me, relatively; if we exclude games, of course....

After being exposed to strikes for an hour; I finally started to keep up with the man; and only then did I realize he was holding back his strikes so as not to cause me great harm so I could still fight...

"Old man, why are you doing this to me"

I asked as I dodged a spear strike and returned with a strike of equal power; and believe me, I was happy when I knew I was hitting him; I mean, fighting for an hour and barely dodging his strikes and hitting him for the first time in battle....

Suddenly, the man stepped back and a smile appeared on his face and he said in a majestic voice

"Well, you have reached the first level I want from you"

Suddenly, the man raised the spear and said in a loud voice:

"Star Burner"

The spear started glowing with a sinister black color; I couldn't think of anything except (fear)...

I felt I was going to die at this very moment...

My thoughts raced but I couldn't come to anything "Damn"

I muttered in a low voice as I looked at the spear piercing my stomach...

"You have reached the first level; go, you will find me when you reach the second level in this art"

That was the last thing I heard before my vision turned to darkness....
