Will of chaos

Pov Luminus (Dragon Emperor of Light):

“THAT DAMN!!!!!” (I)

“LUMINUS STOP!!!” (Lux)

“…” (I)

Sigh

I was in my Dragon form almost releasing my rage in an indiscriminate attack on the surroundings, but luckily my moment of rage only lasted 1 second before being stopped by an old friend.

Causing such massive destruction with all my might would only make a situation worse than it was already bad.

“I know you’re furious, but you knew it wouldn’t be easy taking on the role of a ruler.” (Lux)

“Do you know how much I fought all this time? How many times I stood between life and death fighting even Abyssal Creatures? How many times did they distrust me simply because of my race!?” (I)

“I know…” (Lux)

“I endured all this while fighting alone until I reached my current level of strength while everyone said I couldn’t, halfway through I still had to protect myself from True Dragons from my own tribe!” (I)

“All we’ve done for the last few thousand years is try to rebuild our reputation and position!” (I)

“You’ve done far more than anyone thought possible.” (Lux)

“Then why!? Why was I betrayed when I thought I was finally stepping forward!?” (I)

“No one could expect Shiro to do such a thing.” (Lux)

“He was always the most fervent in keeping the Dragons of Light safe.” (Lux)

I was trapped in chains of light made by Lux, a Fairy Queen of Light, an old friend who has been by my side for thousands of years.

I had just received a message from the Village of the Bone Desert, a place ruled by the Dark Elves within the Infernal Desert, the Aura of nature in the letter reveals that it was written by the Dark Elf King Heston himself.

The letter spoke about the battle he fought with a Titan of Nature that was taken to his territory by a Dragon of Light, the moment I read this I remembered the disappearance report of the youngest son of the Goddess Selene along with a complete city.

“Do you know where he is?” (Lux)

“Had I known I wouldn’t be standing still now, I would have gone to where that traitorous bastard is to slowly tear his body apart while I devour him piece by piece before sealing his soul and dropping the seal into a dung hole?” (I)

“That was very disgusting and specific.” (Lux)

I thought that the Dragons of Light on the side of the Church of Light were making another attack against my plans, I thought this might happen and so I had sent someone I trusted a lot, someone who was evident how much he cared about the protection of the Dragons of Light.

But when all the information came together with the fact that all of his subordinates disappeared along with everything in his nest, I knew something was wrong, but I still searched until I found the beginning of the battle of the mysterious Dragon of Light against the Titan of Nature, there I found parts of the scale and blood, the Dragon’s Aura still fresh enough to be recognized with a single glance of mine.

The mysterious Dragon of Light that was almost certainly responsible for destroying the city of the Haffes Kingdom and being attacked by a Titan of Nature for its act of destruction, the same Dragon of Light that attracted the Titan of Nature to fight an Elf King and fleeing was actually the one I sent putting my trust in.

“Look on the bright side, you got a meeting with…” (Lux)

I change back to my Human form before interrupting her again.

“What a bright side, that guy is more of a warrior than a ruler, I know how he thinks, I’ll be lucky if I don’t get attacked the moment I walk through the door!” (I)

That man is very aggressive when he’s angry, his responses to any situation that makes him angry is to attack first and ask questions later.

Pov Zenos:

After addressing the subject of the Old Elves and my evolution, Dark Elf King Heston tells us more details about their recent battle.

He proudly tells how he defeated a Titan of Nature, the exaggerated descriptions and the way he narrates the story seems like an old man telling his grandchildren about his adventures of the old days of youth.

But when he talks about the Dragon of Light that caused the fight, his gaze turns dangerous, I felt a shiver of fear run through my body. ．

But the description of the Titan of Nature and the mention of chasing a Light Element Dragon reminds me of something.

I look at Margareth, Nix, and Freya who were present that day, Margareth seemed calm as always, but Nix and Freya had serious expressions on their faces, they clearly thought the same as me, after all the timeline of what happened in Haffes to the battle of the Dark Elf King Heston versus the Titan of Nature makes sense.

“I can tell you more about this Light Element Dragon.” (I)

“What do you know? How do you know?” (King Heston)

“I was in the missing city of the Haffes Kingdom, and I saw this Titan of Nature form, what I saw that day matches your description.” (I)

“Were you in that town?” (Hest)

“Yes, we can say that part of the blame for that city disappearing is mine.” (I)

“It wasn’t your fault, you were a target…” (Freya)

“Exactly because I was a target, that’s why that happened…” (I)

“The culprit is who the Titan of Nature decided to pursue, so tell me more about that Dragon of Light.” (King Heston)

“He is a Dragon King of Light, a True Dragon who was there because of me, his name is Shiro.” (I)

“Do you mind telling me about your relationship with him?” (Hest)

“It all started with a barbecue on the ocean…” (I)

After that I told him about how I met Luminus, about the proposal he made to me, then I told him about hiding in the Haffes Kingdom where I was found by Margareth and Shiro.

I told him about Shiro’s sudden attack and about what we talked about before that, even he realized the strangeness of such an action and spoke about the meeting he will have with Luminus in a few days, he asked me to be there to resolve everything perfectly.
