I Received System to Become Dragonborn-Chapter 75 In Mount Calamity

They appeared shortly thereafter accompanied by the same blue light. Erend was worried because he thought that the blue light could attract the enemy's attention.

But as soon as he appeared, Erend didn't see anything around them.

The two of them were currently in the middle of a very dense forest. A large tree whose trunk diameter might be up to three meters stood next to Saeldir.

"Don't worry. We're in a hidden place," Saeldir said. "I marked this place long ago. So I can sneak in here easily if I want to."

"How did you mark it?" Erend who didn't understand asked.

"You don't need to know about that," Saeldir replied sharply.

Erend clenched his jaw while giving Saeldir a sharp glare. But he didn't say anything. Erend had to hold his temper now if he wanted full cooperation from Saeldir.

The two of them walked through the dense bushes. There weren't any clues to say where they were walking or where the two of them were headed.

Erend was confused about how Saeldir would know where to put their feet. But once again, Erend refused to ask any questions because he knew that he would get the same answer.

Moments later, Saeldir whispered. 'Get down.'

Erend immediately get down without seeing why they had to do it. He then heard the voices of several Daemons of Calamity talking while walking in front of them.

Erend tried to look at them but Saeldir grabbed his shoulder hard and shook his head. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

So Erend immediately fell silent. He saw Saeldir make a gesture to wave his hand at a glance. Erend didn't see anything happening but Saeldir was clearly up to something.

Soon the Daemons went away. Their voices grew smaller and smaller until they disappeared completely.

"We will move into the heart of the Daemon of Calamity kingdom," Saeldir said in a whisper. "Don't make a fuss."

"Aren't you an Archmage with great power or something?" Erend said.

Saeldir looked at Erend with disbelieving eyes. "Of course, I'm pretty strong. But I wouldn't be stupid enough to have a head-on confrontation."

"I mean when things go bad."

Saeldir tightened his jaw. "Nothing's going to go bad if you don't mess up. Come on!"

Erend could only sigh to quell his anger. Then followed Saeldir with careful steps.

They passed groups of Daemons on patrol or just gathering. Since this place was a mountain, a steep and ascending path was unavoidable.

Erend felt that this was almost impossible. Passing steep paths increases the risk of slipping and falling. The pebbles will also fall when they step on the ground to climb up. It could have caught the attention of anyone who saw it.

But it turns out that Erend's worries are just worries. Saeldir handled everything well. With his magic power, he can make them invisible and muffle their voices.

What amazed Erend, even more, was, that Saeldir's Magic could make their footsteps extremely light. Erend seemed to walk with a weightless body.

Every time they stepped on the ground, their footprints were absent. That way Erend felt pretty sure that everything would go smoothly.

They just need to find the location of Billi, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis. They finally arrived at a flat surface. But they haven't reached their peak yet.

This place protrudes from the inside of the mountain creating a flat surface that leads to a passage.

At the top of the passage was an enormous arched bone. The bone was about five meters long and curved over the hall door like a crescent moon.

Erend admired the huge bone until he didn't notice that Saeldir was already walking ahead of him. As soon as Erend realized, he immediately followed Saeldir.

Saeldir directed a sharp gaze at Erend. Then his voice suddenly sounded in Erend's head.

"Don't get too far from me or you'll mess things up!" In Erend's head, Saeldir was heard screaming. Making Erend winch.

Erend looked at Saeldir with angry eyes. But Saeldir didn't seem to be affected by that gaze.

They stared at each other for a few moments without wanting to budge. Erend finally let out a long breath. They've wasted time here.

Erend gave a nod to Saeldir. Then Saeldir walked ahead of him.

Erend followed behind him with the feeling of rage he held in his chest. They went deeper and deeper into the hallway.

Once at the intersection, three Daemon patrols were passing right in front of them. But no one was aware of their existence. Erend did feel angry at Saeldir's character. But he respects her strength.

Erend suddenly saw Saeldir waving his hand at the Daemon patrol.

A thin white light enveloped their bodies but the three Daemons didn't notice anything. After that Saeldir formed three balls of light in his hand.

Then he moved his hand again. The three balls of light shot toward the three Daemons and then entered their bodies. Instantly they fell unconscious and fell to the ground.

But even though they fell, no sound came out. Saeldir headed straight for the three of them and waved once more.

Erend didn't know what Saeldir was doing but he had a guess. Most likely Saeldir made them invisible like Erend and him.

Saeldir touched the face of one of the Daemons then he got up. But his eyes looked empty and vacant.

Then Saeldir said something in Quenya in a whisper. Then the Daemon answered in a low whisper that only Saeldir could hear.

After seemingly getting what he wanted, Saeldir stood up and then moved his head. As a sign for Erend to follow him.

They walked back into the hall. There was a strange smell that Erend smelled the deeper they walked. This smell stung and made him groan. But Erend didn't bother asking.

Finally, they came out of the hall. Only to see another cave door in front of them.

Next to the cave door, there is a stone of the same shape and it will fit perfectly into the opening of the cave door.

"They're there," Saeldir said still in a voice that echoed inside Erend's head.

They both head there.

However, as soon as they started walking, Saeldir and Erend saw two figures walking up from inside the cave.

One figure was a Daemon of Calamity with an enormous build. The other figure was someone whose entire body was covered by a black robe.

Saeldir and Erend stopped suddenly in shock. The eyes of the two of them widened when they saw the two people suddenly come out.

The two figures spoke in a language Erend couldn't understand. Then suddenly they both stopped talking.

Slowly, the two of them turned their heads towards the front. The place where Erend and Saeldir were standing.

The black-robed figure said something again. His tone was alert. Erend didn't understand what he was saying, but he knew it was a bad sign.

As soon as Erend turned to see the look on Saeldir's face, he was also making a worried and stiff face.

"Prepare yourself," Saeldir said inside Erend's head. "We might have to fight."

Hearing Saeldir's words, Erend immediately knew that the situation had turned ugly.

"(What's wrong?)" Baldeem asked because suddenly 'They' stopped.

Baldeem looks around but he doesn't find anything unusual.

"(I have a feeling, someone else is here,)" 'They' replied.

'They' also spread 'their' gaze around the surroundings but with a feeling of anxiety in his heart that was bigger than Baldeem who didn't know anything.

'They' was still looking around. When they saw that, Erend and Saeldir held their breath and couldn't move an inch. Their hearts were beating very fast.

Fighting was something Erend wanted to avoid. It wasn't that he didn't feel strong enough. It was precise because he was too strong that Erend felt that he could not fight. Or he will threaten the safety of the friends he wants to save.

But if the situation got out of control, what could he do but fight back?

Then Erend saw Saeldir spread one hand slowly towards the black-robed figure.

Erend don't know what he wanted to do but he chose to remain silent and watch. While preparing if he has to attack.

It wasn't long before the black-robed figure shook his head.

"(Maybe it's nothing,)" 'They' said.

Then the two of them continued up and past Saeldir and Erend.

Saeldir and Erend breathed a sigh of relief once they were passed.

The rock moved by itself to close the door of the cave from which they had come out.

As soon as Erend turned his head, the huge Daemon and the black-robed figure had disappeared into the hallway.

Saeldir and Erend waited for a few seconds before finally descending. Saeldir opened the stone covering the door with a wave of his hand.

The rock shifted with a fairly loud crackling sound. Erend turned his head to look towards the hallway. But there was no one there.

"Come in, hurry!" Saeldir said.

Erend immediately went inside. Saeldir followed shortly after and closed the cave door again with the stone.
