Reborn as a DRAGON-Chapter 378: Welcome
Chapter 378: Welcome
My eyes were glaring at Breta as her attempts to avoid my gaze only fueled my frustration. I shot her a glare, my eyes narrowing as I addressed her, "Didn't I tell you? Didn't I say that you'll jinx it?"
With an eye roll and a slightly awkward cough, the Goddess attempted to downplay the situation, "Well, it's not as bad as you're making it out to be. You're always overreacting."
"Overreacting, she says" I sighed deeply, turning my attention to the scene that stretched out before us. While we had indeed escaped the clutches of the Shade territory, fate had a different plan in store for us.
Instead of returning to the familiar Dragon territory, we found ourselves thrust into the heart of a battle. And not just any battleit was a grand cosmic confrontation. From our vantage point in the void of space, my gaze took in a jaw-dropping sight.
The sun illuminated the cosmic theater, casting its golden glow across three colossal planets that orbited it. However, these planets were not thriving in their natural state. Two of them were in the throes of destruction, their surfaces ravaged and chaotic. The third, while still intact, clung to its existence by a thread. A massive protective shield enveloped it, and an army comprised of both Gods and Dragons fought tirelessly to fend off the impending doom.
In the proximity of the sun, the battlefield's intensity grew even more profound. Two colossal figures, ancient dragons of unparalleled magnitude, commanded attention with their presence. Their forms were nearly obscured by the incandescent radiance they emitted, casting their own light upon the chaos. Engaged in an epic struggle against them were the harbingers of the Shade, the very embodiments of darkness.
My eyes strained to take in the scene. I wasn't even sure what I was looking at, as one of these otherworldly abominations resembled a nebulous cloud of darkness, writhing and convulsing as it attempted to engulf the formidable dragons. It was a maelstrom of shadows, an entity that seemed hungry for the light around it.
The other was a monstrosity of insectoid proportions, its grotesque form reminiscent of an enormous beetle. Yet, there was nothing ordinary about it. Cloaked in the same obsidian hue that marked the Shades, it thrashed and clashed with the dragons, its formidable presence creating a stark contrast against the backdrop of space. f reeweb novel.com
Amid the cosmic conflict, the two sides clashed in an explosive dance, and the universe itself seemed to tremble under the weight of their battle.
The reverberations of their fierce engagement created a chaotic arena, a tumultuous battleground where shockwaves rippled outwards, creating a turbulent zone that dared anyone to venture near. Even the sun itself, the very heart of the solar system, seemed to falter in its brilliance whenever the two opposing forces clashed, as if their confrontation held the power to momentarily eclipse its radiance.

Glancing at my siblings, my raised eyebrow spoke volumes of disbelief. "Am I really overreacting?" I queried, my voice laced with a mix of exasperation and irony.
Sidus's subtle avoidance of eye contact and Ynos's infectious grin painted a vivid picture of their thoughts. My little brother's response didn't fail to elicit a weary smile from me, despite the circumstances. "Look at the bright side, brother. We are no longer alone!" Ynos chimed in with an optimism that was almost endearing.
With a resigned sigh, I shook my head slightly, contemplating the situation before us. "What do you guys want to do?" I inquired, my voice carrying a tinge of fatigue.
"We join the others in defending the remaining planet, of course!" Ynos answered with unabashed enthusiasm, his readiness evident.
Breta and Sidus shared a nonchalant shrug, and I couldn't help but chuckle softly. "So be it, let's go. But make sure we steer clear of the fight between the big guys," I added with a note of caution.
Hardly had my words faded when Ynos shot forward like a blazing meteor. Our arrival had strategically placed us at the rear of the battlefield, offering us an avenue of escape if we chose to exercise it. Yet, some driving forceperhaps a vestige of dragon pridepushed us toward this confrontation that appeared to be larger than life itself.
The ferocity of the battle was impossible to ignore. Ynos tore through the swarm with surgical precision, aiming for the weaker clusters of Shade abominations. His head-first charge carved a path through the chaos, and we followed in his wake, methodically eliminating the lower-tiered Shades that dared cross our path. It was an odd dance, where my siblings, Breta, and I displayed an almost eerie synergy in our movements, each of us anticipating the other's actions seamlessly.
The sudden appearance of our trio shifted the dynamics of the battle, diverting the attention of many Shades away from the planet's defenders. As my three-headed dragon form assumed dominance, my cosmic mana flowed through me with unwavering strength. My focus was locked onto Ynos's movements, ready to intervene at any hint of danger.
Ynos's actions were a sight to behold. He moved with a calculated grace, his precision leaving no room for error. For any Shade that managed to breach his defenses, my cosmic mana was swift to respond, tearing them apart in a display of unrelenting force. My mastery over this celestial energy was growing, enabling me to seamlessly switch between offense, defense, and even support.
Our cohesive efforts allowed us to carve a path through the sea of encroaching darkness, drawing closer to the besieged planet. With every Shade we dispatched, the pressure on the planet's defenders seemed to ease incrementally, providing them a momentary respite from the onslaught.
In a remarkably short span of time, we managed to cut our way through the swarm of assailants, arriving at the frontlines where an imposing alliance of Dragons and Deities was assembled. Among them stood a formidable figure, a golden earth dragon whose broken horn seemed to underline his seasoned experience.
Approaching us with a wide grin that matched his wild energy, he boomed, "By the King, I've never witnessed youngsters as audacious as you!" His gaze danced between us, briefly pausing on Ynos before a nod of approval followed. "You must be the esteemed destroyer's family," he declared, his voice carrying a blend of camaraderie and respect.
"Welcome to hell!" He laughed.
