[Ragnar’s POV]I was a top of Avatar when we flew to the open sea in a dim lit night. Because the moon was just a quarter full, the surroundings were dark. Good thing that Avatar’s wings were burning, we can at least see a few feet radius below us.Our destination was the location of the faint glow. At first the glow was dim that can be ignored. But when Avatar and I were getting closer, the light became distinct. "I can feel a strong wave of magic where that light is coming from." I said out loud. "Yes, I can feel it as well." Avatar replied. "I feel something familiar and yet ominous in the vicinity of the light." "Can you sense any danger?" I asked him. "There would be danger, probably." Avatar replied without thinking twice. The strong magic I am sensing from the direction of the light might only be one thing. "The forbidden magic." I said it out loud. I unconsciously got shivers all over my body after saying its name. "I am sure that is what it is." Avatar said after hear
My eyes went wide when I saw the person that just spoke. He does not have a solid body and seemed like a mirage. Looking at his physical features, long silver hair and eyes, it is undoubted that he is of Spartan royal blood line. "It is nice to see you again, young king of Avalon." The man greeted me with a bright smile. "You... who are you?" I asked out of curiosity. He seemed to not be a threat, but I still kept my guard up just to make sure. I looked around and it was like time had frozen around me. Only me and the man before me are the ones that can move. "Oh, it is understandable that you do not recognize me." The man replied. "The time I met you, I had the feature of an old man. Now I am in my young form." The man smiled brightly at me once more.His words puzzled me for a moment, but when I looked at him closely, I remembered the incident the time the fish witch dies. I remember that the soul of the almighty One came to fetch the fish witch and send her to the after life. "
"Who has come to disturb my master’s return?" The voice of the dragon was quite menacing. "I am here to see my wife." I said holding my ground but I can feel the heavy aura the dragon is emitting.The dragon was focused on looking at us. There was silence for a moment, and the tension was getting heavier with each passing second. ’I can feel his menacing aura, Erik.’ Avatar said to me telepathically. ’I know. I can sense it as well.’ I replied as well. I am not sure if the dragon right now is a friend or foe. But with the aura he is emitting, Avatar and I cannot let our guard down. "I see. So you are the husband of the body where my master chose to be born from." The dragon replied. "Yes." I replied, having hope that the divine beast in front of me would at least let me pass through. "I wish to see my wife and guard her while your master’s soul and magic is being absorbed into her body. The baby inside of her is my child as well." "Hmm... I see." The dragon nodded its head. "B
While I was floating at the water surface, I felt the pressure from under me. In no time, the dragon flung me up in mid air and I was about to be swallowed whole in his big mouth. I was suspended in mid air when I saw the dragon opening its mouth wide and baring its sharp teeth. He was about to swallow me from where I was. I felt myself falling, while the dragon was heading my way from under me with his mouth wide open. When my body was just at the entrance of his mouth, I stretched my arms and got a hold of one of his fangs. I was able to prevent myself from going straight into the dragon’s mouth and into its throat. But that was not the end of my predicament. The dragon was about to crush me with his big teeth. He was about to close his mouth with me in between, but I was able to hold his lower jaw down with my feet. "Ahhh,dammm!" I cursed at the current state I am. I was using all of my strength to prevent myself from being crushed and grinded by the dragon’s teeth. "Ahhhhhh
The sun was yet to rise, darkness still clouded the surroundings. The air is tainted with the saltness of the sea and dawn was just around the corner. I was standing at the sandy beach while holding Shadow’s reigns. We are preparing to set out and retrieve the remaining key fragments that are missing to complete the key. My men have formed two groups, each one tasked to get the key fragments in a specific location. I will be leading one group while the other one will be led by Chris. "Your majesty. All is set for our journey." Victor said with a solemn face. "That is good." I replied. "Remember, we are short of time so we will need to retrieve the key fragments as soon as possible." "I understand your majesty." Victor said while bowing his head as affirmation. "But make sure to be careful." I ordered specifically. "We might be in haste and time might be of the essence, but I do not want anything bad to happen to any of you."The look of the men before me had a mix of gratitu
The sun has just set and we still could not find any entrance inside the ruins. The men were tired from searching all afternoon and I let them rest when night fell.My patience is also getting thin, knowing that my wife Isabella is all alone under the sea. I would like to get the remaining key fragments as fast as I could, before Kyler and the others get to the beach 🏝️ city of Vienna. ’How is Isa doing?’ I thought to myself while I was pacing back and forth. ’I hope she is doing okay. What if she feels cold while she is all alone down there? I should have made an effort to get past that dragon.’ The feeling of regret is clouding my judgement every single minute that passes by. "Your majesty..." Cyril walked near me with caution. His facial expression is full of worry. "The men has rested enough, we can continue searching once again." I stopped from my pacing and saw my men looking at me with worried eyes. They saw my anxiousness just now and made me feel embarrassed. I was their
"Y-Your majesty. T-The wolf... it just talked." Cyril said with bewilderment. "After everything I have witnessed these past few days, I do not know why I am still surprised with this." I said while unsheathing my sword from its scarab. "Sirens, dragons, and now this... talking wolves." "Who are you calling talking wolves, Spartan scum?!" A grey wolf snarled ferociously at us. "We are proud lycans. Never associate us with animals." "Lycans?" I said out loud. ’That name sounds familiar.’ I thought. "Hush your mouth Grey." The black majestic one which is the biggest of them snarled at the gray one. It whimpered down after hearing the black lycan’s words. "You, the one with black hair. Are you the leader of these Spartan humans?" "Yes, I am." I replied without letting my guard down. I can feel the intense pressure coming from the black one.If these were normal wolves, then the black one who is the biggest must be their leader, the Alpha. All the others are rallying behind him a
The black lycan stopped attacking and turned towards me. His eyes was on me, and I felt as if his eyes were boring into my soul. Chills ran down my spine. ’These beasts are not something to look down on.’ I thought as I felt the goosebumps all over my body.I have gone into battle with many enemies. I can say that I am a veteran in the battlefield. But recently, we have been crossing paths with opponents that we only read in ancient books. These creatures have been in hiding since ancient times, but for some reason we have been encountering them even if we do not want to. ’Are these only coincidences, or is this fate.’ I thought to myself. ’The reincarnation of the almighty One is now undergoing. Are these creatures feeling the presence of the return of the almighty One?’ This is one of my hypothesis. "You are quite brave, spartan leader." The black lycan said with a menacing tone.The black lycan walked towards me slowly with its head held high, as if showing his dominance. I can
