I Received System to Become Dragonborn-Chapter 13 A Restless Night

"So you kick his ass?"

"And burning his face."

Erend was sitting together with Lt. Boartusk and Billy in their room. Delirien said they would have to wait a few minutes before being called again.

Billy chuckled with a happy face.

"What are you laughing at, Brook?" Lt. Boartusk looked at Billy and he fell silent. Or actually, Billy was just trying to hold back his laughter.

"Drake, do you know what you're doing is too much?" Lt. Boartusk was now staring at Erend.

"I told you everything, Lieutenant. Aerchon attacked me first," said Erend.

"You sneaked in with his sister!" Lt. Boartusk shook his head. "What do you think he would do as an older brother if he saw a stranger take her sister to a deserted place? Especially when that Elf girl is half naked!"

Erend shut his mouth tightly. He thought again. What he did was wrong.

Erend already knows that going out late at night is a violation. If he looked at it from Aerchon's point of view, maybe he would do the same.

"But how can you beat him like that? Don't elves have magic?" Billy asked curiously.

Erend sighed. He thought it was time to tell them everything.

"I got a strange power," said Erend. Billy and Lt. Boartusk stared at him.

"What do you mean?" Billy asked.

Erend proceeds to tell them what happened to him since that night. But he couldn't possibly tell them about Tut and the Status Window that popped up.

Erend was just talking about how he was able to slightly change his body form to become tougher and able to withstand the Magic attacks of the Elves. Of course, Erend also said that he can breathe fire.

Listening to that, Billy and Lt. Boartusk was stunned. The slightly open mouth coupled with a sharp frown on each forehead explained their confusion.

"That's kind of... Hard to believe." Lt. Boartusk mumbled.

"Yeah, are you sure there's nothing wrong with your brain?" Billy said.

"You saw what happened to Aerchon, right?" Erend asked back.

Billy nodded. "Then you can rest easy. If you really have that power, you can escape their punishment, right?"

Erend shook his head. "I won't run away or fight back. If I do, then this situation will only get worse."

Billy nodded his head, agreeing with Erend's answer. "You are right."

On the other hand, Aerchon was talking to Delirien.

Aerchon has completely recovered. There were no marks on his face that shows he had just been burned and beaten.

The reason Erend was able to hit and beat him earlier was that he was careless. He thought the human was dead and Aerchon had only used his power to a minimum.

Aerchon didn't expect that Erend would still be alive and attack him at a speed that he knew a normal human wouldn't be able to do.

"Are you sure?" Ask Delirien.

"I am very sure!" Aaerchon replied. "His skin turned into scales and he spits fire from his mouth."

"If that's true, that human has Dragon-like features."

Delirien said in a tone of fear mixed with admiration.

Dragon, even the name of that creature made the Elves shudder. Dragon is an ancient creature that has become a legend.

They are a creature with extraordinary power. According to legend, the Elf realm was created by The Great Dragon.

After The Great Dragon created the Elf realm, the Dragon split itself into several smaller Dragons assigned to guard and make the world of the Elves as beautiful as it is today.

For hundreds of thousands of years, the whereabouts of the Dragons were nowhere to be found. So the Elves estimate that they are already extinct.

"That's not possible!" Archon denied.

Delirien looked at him. "Then how are you going to explain what happened?"

Aerchon was silent because he didn't know either. What he saw was very real. The scaled man's face above him was still clearly etched in his brain. Like a nightmare that won't go away.

"We don't have to think about that now," Aerchon said. "Has the potion worked?"

"They should have. They ate their lunch and dinner well," said Delirien.

Aerchon nodded in satisfaction. "Good."

"The princess has already shown everything to that man, right? Do we still need the potion?" Ask Delirien.

"Of course. We don't need them to believe and I won't beg them to believe. With the potion, we can immediately make them do what we say," Aerchon explained.

Delirien actually didn't agree with Aerchon's actions. They wanted to ask for help. Shouldn't they have asked nicely?

Even though the human side is at fault, that doesn't mean the three soldiers are also wrong.

They are just parties caught in the middle of this conflict. As parties who are both at a loss, shouldn't they be able to work together?

But Aerchon was an Elf prince who was full of pride and stubbornness. He would not go along with Delirien's suggestion once he had made up his mind.

"Let's go meet them." f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

Aerchon and Delirien came out of the room to meet the three humans.

Erend, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk are escorted by an Elf woman. The three of them agreed to carry hidden weapons.

Erend contemplated again his mistake for following his anger and beating Aerchon back. Though he should have held back and explained everything.

"Hhh..." Erend took a deep breath.

Soon they came to a closed room. Even though it was late at night and close to morning, all the Elves in this small palace were up and present.

The three humans walked towards the prepared seats. Of the three of them, only Billy had a calm face.

Aerchon sat at the end table and stared at them. Or, is he just staring at Erend?

"You attacked an Elf prince." Delirien who was sitting next to Aerchon started. "You know it was a big mistake?"

"First let me say my defense," said Erend.

Erend knew that he had made a mistake. However, he did not fully commit the mistake. So he would not accept punishment without defending himself.

"Aurdis asked me out. And I didn't do anything to her. Maybe Aerchon misunderstood when he saw the two of us. I understand that. I'm sorry," said Erend.

All the Elves in the room looked at him with angry, condescending looks.

"I've also seen footage of humans stealing your belongings so you guys have to start a war." Erend continued. "What if we-"

"Shut up!" Aerchon cut in coldly.

Erend and Aerchon exchanged glances.

Then Aerchon glanced at Delirien as if to give her a hint. After that Delirien snapped her fingers.

A yellow glow appeared around Billy and Lt. Boartusk's heads.
