Elias walked forward as Pyra remained rooted to the same spot. His eyes were looking beyond Pyra as he stopped right beside her and spoke

"Consider yourself lucky that you didn't take a step forward. I would have aimed for your head if you were so impudent to assume you could fight me. I'm not here for you today and I don't have time to deal with the demon lord, don't let a mistake like this repeat itself,"

Elias looked at Pyra from the corner of his eye and she realized that he was telling her to get the fuck out. She immediately opened that portal and stiffly walked through. Pyra couldn't fight Elias and expect to live and she has to report this to her master. She knew that the only reason she was alive was that she was a member of the demon lord's household.

Pyra is a member of the demon lord's household. If you kill a member of the demon lord's household, you are declaring war on the demon lord. Elias did not want that much attention from Floid yet and that was the only reason he spared Pyra at that moment. Once Pyra was gone, Elias walked into the room and stopped in front of Dray's body for a second as he gained a contemplative face while he looked at the boy. After a few seconds, Dray's chest moved and Elias blinked in surprise that Dray was still alive. Maybe this one will be useful. Elias bent down and grabbed Dray by his hair before dragging him out of the room.

Floid was growing frustrated inside the king's study. Floid has been reading journals for almost an hour now and he still hasn't gotten the king's secret. It turns out that the former king of Aquinas was someone that truly loved Dragons. Most of the things inside the journals were filled with stories of dragons and how the dragons were the greatest creatures a thousand years ago. The only thing that Floid has found interesting so far is the story about Dragon Slayers

Floid was shocked when he read about the Dragon Slayers. They were a human race who excelled in the hunting of Dragons. It seemed impossible that any human would be able to hunt a dragon, Floid didn't know if he should believe everything he read in the journal. Most of them were stories that the king heard from bards and jesters and they weren't very credible.

Those Dragon Slayers may be strong, but for them to hunt dragons? Floid just couldn't believe it. Floid decided that he would just finish reading the journals first. He would get more accurate information from his system when he is finished with this Quest.

​ The Dragon Slayers lived on the dragon continent of Volcanica. It was a small continent that was only half the size of the demon continent of Aridite and it was less than a quarter the size of the third continent of Mogul.

But a thousand years ago, both the Dragon Slayers and the dragons suddenly disappeared. The king of Aquinas wrote that many people didn't believe in the existence of dragons back then. The dragons were seen as myths, and no one believed that there was a race of humans that could kill dragons.

But the king believed it. The king believed every single story about dragons. Everything about the dragons was very interesting to the king and he always wanted to know more! The king even wanted to go to Volcanica and see if the dragon slayers still existed. He wanted to confirm with his eyes if the Dragon Slayers were really gone!

But as a king, he never had the chance to do that. He had responsibilities as the king and he couldn't leave his country to go hiking across some unknown continent. The king lamented that this was his greatest regret. He always wished that he had more time to go and explore the continent of Volcanica. He wished for it so much that he started to hate being a king.

Floid knew that all of these journals were kept here for the king's son to read and not him, but Floid couldn't help but chuckle when he read this part. A king was lamenting about being trapped in his position? Are you not a king? What's stopping a king from doing what he wants? Or are you so bad at ruling your kingdom that it will all collapse if you are not there to handle every little thing?

This is just another thing Floid hates about humans. They all liked to claim false unity but it was difficult for any human to trust another human. Floid was sure that the king didn't trust the people around him to look after the kingdom properly and that is why he couldn't leave. Maybe he was scared they would steal his kingdom from him?

Floid leaned back as he continued reading.

[But all that changed the day I heard of Givalich, the dragon of fire...]

Floid immediately sat up again once he read this part of the book. This was the first time that Floid showed any sort of interest in what the king was writing. The dragon of fire? Floid had read about the dragon of fire before. In the Rivalle Wiki, Floid read that Givalich, the dragon of fire, was hunted and killed by humans thousands of years ago.

Floid didn't know if Givalich was stronger than Dragonnel, but Floid knew that if Givalich was alive then Dragonnel wouldn't be the only strongest entity in this world. That title would be shared by the two of them.

[It was told to me by my father, King Eyle the Fourth, and just like he told it to me, I too shall tell it to you my son, king Eyle the Sixth. This world that we live in is much larger than the small kingdom you live in. There are forces and powers greater than anything humans can compete against. Among these forces is the one that has been a bane to us from the very dawn of time. The demon lord...]

Floid chuckled. He felt proud that even his predecessors were already tormenting the humans. Even back then the demon lords were already seen as a menace to humans.

[The demon lord has terrorized humanity for generations and even though I do not like saying it, humans are powerless to stop him. We do not have the strength of the dragon slayers and we do not have the technology or magic to compete with them. But what we do have is a secret weapon. My son, what I am about to tell you, you must take it to your grave. Only write it down in one place and grant it as a gift to the next king of Aquinas. There must never be another soul that hears of this. The truth is that more than a thousand years ago before dragons were only seen as myths and fables, humanity captured the dragon of fire, Givalich, and sealed him]

Floid was now reading with intense seriousness. They sealed Givalich. How? That should not be possible. How can a group of humans have the power to seal one of the strongest races in the world? And not just any dragon, the dragon of fire that was seen as the equal to Dragonnel? Impossible.

Floid immediately closed that journal since it was finished and went to the next one to continue.

[I can understand your shock. I was just as surprised by this when my father told me. It seemed impossible. A complete lie. For a moment, I thought that my father had gone mad. He was already an old man so it wouldn't be strange for him to lose the last of his senses at the end of his days. But I was wrong. I found out that it wasn't my father that was mad, it was the entirety of humanity that was mad. All of us are insane. Givalich was not a peaceful dragon. He was a monster capable of destroying an entire kingdom if he goes on a rampage, humans can't catch him. So we employed the help of a dragon slayer named Elias to capture him. The same race that everyone thought of as a myth turned out to be real. In exchange for his services, the Dragon Slayer didn't ask for money or riches. He wanted thirty babies that have never used magic before delivered to him. Each kingdom deliberated on it and they eventually decided to deliver the thirty babies to this man. I don't know what he used the children for, but the thing that shocked me was how easily we gave up our children for the sake of power. Like I said, humanity had gone mad.]
