The Villain's Story

Alan stopped outside Samantha’s Hospital room. He felt conflicted and hesitant.

He worried about his sister the most. Although Twilight’s main base was safe due to the large number of Artifacts activated here that repelled the chaotic energy…He was still worried.

He wanted to go in…But he felt afraid.

He could feel Emma using her Aura to treat his sister. And also his Grandmother inside the room. She had refused to leave after the Mall incident even though she herself needed medical care.

He worried for their safety…What if those Flesh Monstrosities attacked the base when almost everyone was out to attack? What then?

He didn’t trust it. He raised his hand and touched the door. And then spread his mana around the entire ward. And then constructed a barrier of frost energy. The energy that would react violently when chaos energy or Beings with Malicious intent approached the ward. He put up several layers of barriers around Samantha’s room.

‘…Can I do it?’

Alan questioned himself. He questioned whether if he could really take on the Marquis ranked demon if it did descend…

“…No.”

His frost Draconian form was not enough. And He didnt have enough leeway with the energy of the phoenix as well.

That was being used on Samantha. Previously, All alan did was charge in and fight like a beast and didnt worry about his injuries because the Pheonix Bloodline would heal him. But now he didnt have it.

‘…Maybe…With the Chaos Dragon one…No I can’t use that.’

The Chaos Draconian, The one that he used during the weird Illusion the Jade snake had put him in.

He vividly remembered that sheer power…Of that transformation.

Maybe…it would be enough to take down a Marquis…but who knows?

‘…I can’t.’

He knew it. He couldn’t risk it.

He couldn’t just risk it. Just risk losing the protection the reputation James had…The Reputation made even the Abyssal conscience wary enough not to approach Aranus’s vessel just because of the chance James was in control.

‘…I can’t risk it.’

Alan came to terms with himself. He wouldn’t see that power for a long time.

He left the ward and went to the balcony. His eyes observed the surroundings. People all gathered around, Children were being taken care of by any medical staff available.

He looked up at the red sky, At the spirals of clouds centered around the beacons penetrating into the skies. Why wouldn’t people be afraid?

He was sure that immense efforts were made to ensure that the common folk didnt know of the quest…But people still found out.

They were all afraid, Each and every one of them. He was afraid.

What if the marquis descended? [Possession] couldn’t be used because it was still on Cooldown. And besides his current body just couldn’t take the force of Aranus without the power of the phoenix strengthening it. He just couldn’t.

Hah, He was so confident back in the room. He was confident against facing that white-haired tiger-man…But not against the Marquis.

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras laughs at you.]

[Supreme dragon of frost Lanesha tells Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras to stop.]

“…”

‘Laugh all you want.’

[Supreme dragon of Chaos Suleras assures you that he will.]

“…”

[Supreme Dragon of Frost Lanesha is angry at the Supreme dragon of Chaos Suleras.]

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras says that you are pathetic for a dragon.]

‘…’

Alan just listened, his eyes fixed on the prompts he saw…He was angry yet he accepted it.

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras asks you what will you do in the future. Against the dozens of beings powerful enough to destroy entire stars, Entire Galaxies that have a hatred against the vessel you are in. Against Aranus? Yet you are afraid of a mere marquis?]

‘…’

[Alan.]

“…?”

This time, however, Alan heard Suleras’ voice in his head. There was no prompt from the system, Just the voice of the Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras.

[Remember, Even if you are in the vessel of Aranus.

You are a dragon. And A Dragon does not back down from a fight. A Dragon never backs down no matter who the opponent is.]

Alan looked at his own hands, He covered them with scales and observed them for quite a while.

[The scales of a Dragon, The tongue of a dragon, And the Heart of a dragon are all special.]

[Even if you have yet to completely unlock, to completely understand them. With time you will. You are young, extremely young for a dragon.]

But first and foremost, You are a dragon, the very first Spatial dragon.]

“…”

Alan silently listened to his words.

[So go out there and fucking fight for the ones you want to fight for. You made a promise, Fulfill it.]

Samantha, His Grandparents, The graves, Sabrina, Predator…Twilight.

“What are you doing here alone?”

Alan turned his head to see Sabrina standing beside him.

“You were out in a daze, You didn’t even notice me coming here.”

Alan remained quiet as he stared at Sabrina’s amethyst-like eyes. He was surprised as well. To think he was that off guard that he didnt notice her coming…

“Worried?”

She asked it was as if she knew what Alan was feeling.

“Yeah.”

He confirmed it. Even despite Suleras trying to encourage him…He was still worried.

What a coward…right?

“Oh come on, worse has happened.”

“…?”

“The incident at the Island, The labyrinth. You did all those just fine.”

She listed the ‘impossible’ occurrences that had happened. But Alan got through these just fine. Didnt he? The fact that they were alive was enough proof.

“How are you not worried?”

Alan asked. How was she not worried? She had lost contact with the Wellingtons, Lost contact with the outside world, and now all she had was him. And He couldn’t beat a Marquis…?

“I don’t know.”

She answered as she put her head on his shoulder.

Alan stiffened up at the sudden action. It was completely unexpected.

“Maybe because you’re here?”

She said. There was confidence in her voice. There was trust in it.

“I could have died many times. But who was there to stop them? You did. You saved my life countless times.”

“…That’s because the co-”

“The contract allows you full freedom to run away if you deem a threat too strong.”

“…”

Sabrina interrupted and shut Alan up.

“You never backed down despite knowing that. But you didn’t. That’s what mattered.”

“…”

“Come on. Lighten up…I came here to tell you that you can go and start. Just attack the Central barrier, ok?”

She looked at him in the eyes with a smile. How could she smile in such a situation? Alan wondered.

“I trust you, I know that with you here, nothing bad will happen. Aren’t draconians supposed to be brave?”

Alan stood shocked at the mention of Draconian…Did she know?

But then, when he thought about it she had to have known. He transformed right in front of her during the Island Incident against the fight with Kubrick.

“I’ll be waiting then, You should start soon.”

She said, her words seemed to possess an unknown strength. A strength that made Alan ready, which made him lose all worry.

‘Yeah…Im a Dragon.’ 𝑖𝘳𝑎.𝒸ℴ𝘮

He said to himself, He was a dragon.

[Frost Draconian Transformation has been selected.]

His body began to transform into that of a Frost Draconian, The temperature around him decreased as he took flight in front of many people. Kazikato followed him from behind, still in his human form.

” I am a dragon.”

He soared into the skies. Sabrina, looking at him from below had a smile on her face.

“Well, lets get to doing my job now.”

She said, as she placed her full faith on Alan destroying the barrier.

She knew he would do it. Without a Shadow of a doubt. She Knew he would.
