Sky leisurely walked down this trees covered land. The land looked more like a forest, so Sky did not think that it would take him a long time to find food.
But he couldn't be more wrong. He walked for two hours, both in secret and open, yet had not managed to come across a single living being, much less a monster.
Sky squinted his eyes as he debated this situation. He was fairly confident that this situation wasn't a good thing for him.
Sure enough before he could comprehend the whole situation, the skies above him turned dark. Sky raised his head and saw what could be said to be the largest monster he had ever seen. This monster was even larger than the Black Dragon that gave Sky his current heart.
The monster jumped up in air and fell before Sky. This jump caused the land to crack and the trees to fall. Even Sky was forced to lose his balance and fall into a deep crack in the ground caused by the monster landing.
As he was falling to what seemed like a death fall, a series of notifications rang out in Sky's mind.
Ding!
[ System has deemed the situation as potential death to the Host.]
[ Please note that the Black Dragon Descendant System does not allow the Host to revive like the Player System.]
Sky had only one word to the System.
"Fuck"
Sky's eyes were still calm but his mind was chaotic. He lamented his situation with a sigh. He was going to die since he had accepted a stupid System.
He was falling to his death, while his System rang in his mind once more.
Since he could not do anything about his fall, Sky decided to check the message. The System might even show him the way to live.
But after reading the notification, Sky could only swear.
"Fuck"
The notification itself wasn't something to swear at, but the timing of the notification was.
Ding!
[ Hidden Mission: As the last Male descendant of the Black Dragon, it is strongly advised that you avoid your death.
Contents: Survive the fall to your death.
Rewards: Black Dragon Scales
Black Dragon Scales: A Dragon's outer scales are not only beautiful but also hard. A Dragon's scales becomes harder every time they are attacked.
Effect: Decreases physical and magic attacks and increases endurance. Effect depends on level of the Black Dragon Scales.
Reward: Permanently coat the Host's body with Black Dragon Scales.
The reward was fine, in-fact it was something that could make Sky reach the pinnacle without much effort. All he needed to was find a suitable opponent and increase the hardness of his Black Dragon Scales. There would be a time when his scales would reach the peak and no one would be able to harm him.
But the content of the hidden mission was something that Sky did not know to laugh or cry about.
'Survive the fall to your death.'
Is the fucking system trying to play with him. Survive the fall to your death? Why don't you ask me to destroy Pentagon with a wave of my hand?
Sky, for the first time in his life was this annoyed. Even when the burly man had tortured Sky, he just wanted to kill him. Sky did not feel like making the burly man pay a higher price, just his death would suffice.
Such was his character. He loved killing more than playing with people's mind and making them feel regrets.
So when the System forcefully pushed him with the breeding main missions, Sky was annoyed. He only let it go since the System had helped him overcome his desperate situation.
But the system kept forcing him. Now it was even seemed like it was ridiculing him. It was not that he did not want to survive the fall, but the fact that he was being told to survive annoyed and pissed him.
If one had to describe Sky, it would be, arrogant and unrestrained. He did not mind death, he did not mind pain, but he hated annoyance, scheming and drama.
The reason that he had not accepted the third son's deal was precisely because of this. He hated the look of scheming in the third son's eyes.
Now the System was annoying him. Saying him to care about his life.
Sky crossed his arms over his chest and smiled. He would not try to survive this fall. He would not listen to the System. Death never scared him anyway.
Halfway through the fall, a System notification rang in his mind. This time Sky did not even look at the notification. He continued falling to his death.
Ding!
Sky ignored it.
Ding!
Ding!
Ding!
Still ignoring.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!..... Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!...
'Ahh! So annoying.' Sky was forced to read the notification as the ringing started to become annoying. It was even more annoying than the System ordering him around.
Ding!
[
Hidden Mission: A Dragon is unrestrained and arrogant.
Content: Act arrogant in the face of death.
Reward: Legacy of the Black Dragon.
]
Ding!
[
Hidden Mission Complete.
Reward: Host has met the conditions for obtaining the legacy of the Black Dragon.
]
Ding!
[
Do you accept the legacy of the Black Dragon(Yes/ No)
]
Sky smiled at the last notification, he really liked it. Without any further thought, he chose 'NO'.
'Who the fuck would need your legacy, you old fucker.' Sky very much wanted to shout these words at the Black Dragon. Unfortunately, the Black Dragon was already gone.
Ding!
[
Host has selected 'NO'
you get a single chance to change your option.
]
'No!' Sky screamed, he did not want to change his option.
Ding!
[
You have chosen 'No',
You have a single chance to change your option.
]
No, Sky screamed again.
Ding!
[
You have chosen 'No',
You have a single chance to change your option.
]
"Fuck you!" Sky understood what the System was doing.
'You have a single chance to 'change' your option.'
The word 'change' is very important here. Since Sky wasn't 'changing' his option, he had not used his single chance to change his option so this chance remained.
Basically, unless Sky changed his option, the notification won't stop appearing.
What was annoying, this was annoying.
Sky stopped paying attention to the System and that lead to another series of notifications.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!..... Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!...
This time, even though it was annoying, Sky was resolute in not answering the System.
He only had about another hundred meters to his death fall, but he could not enjoy his triumph over the Overbearing System as the monster that broke the earth with a single step extended it's hand and caught Sky.
As the monster caught Sky, Sky's bones were crushed. Even though the monster tried it's hardest to not crush him to a pulp, it still crushed his insides as it was in a hurry to save Sky from becoming a pulp by falling to his death.
"Gah!" Sky spat blood. He was in pain, but his eyes were fierce. This bloody bitch of monster had just saved him against his wishes. He really wanted to fry this monster alive. Why were everyone he met so annoying? Why are they meddling in his life.
First it was the Pentagon, forcefully summoning him to this world. Next it was the third son, next it was the Black Dragon and it's System. Now this bloody bitch of monster was also annoying him.
Suddenly, Black Scales appeared on Sky, and resisted the crushing hand of the monster. His internals were also slowly healing after these scales stopped the crushing.
Realising what was happening, Sky clicked his tongue.
He had survived the 'fall' to his death, so he had gained the Black Dagon Scales as mission completion reward but Sky wasn't happy. He wasn't happy at all.
Tch! Why is everyone being so annoying.
He repeatedly clicked his tongue.
Seeing his weird reaction, the level twenty monster laughed, it's laugh shook trees and caused hurricanes in the surroundings, practically tearing Sky. If it wasn't for his newly acquired Black Dragon Scales ability, Sky would already be dead. Really dead.
Even in the face of this monster who could kill Sky with just it's breath, Sky still put up a annoyed expression as he screamed out in pain. It wasn't that he could not control his screams of pain, it was that he chose to scream. He was just acting like himself, doing what he wanted to do and act unrestrained.
"Human, you .. weird." The monster spoke in broken human language.
"Tch! You want to eat me, then eat? Why the needless battering?" Sky was really pissed now. But in the eyes of the monster he looked like a kid throwing a tantrum.
"I eat.. you... but .. not .. enough." The monster replied in broken language.
It was saying that Sky wasn't enough to satisfy it's hunger.
Sky remained silent. He found these interactions annoying. Since the monster knew that Sky wasn't enough to satisfy it's hunger but still chose to come here, Sky knew that the monster had something else in it's mind.
So he remained silent. The monster smirked seeing Sky silent. What a obedient human? It thought.
"I.. take .. you.. to .. home." It said.
Sky's eyes twitched.
'Do you think that this big brother is someone who has free time? You want to take me home, sure, come after I have enough strength to kill you, then I will take you up on your offer, i will even eat a Level twenty monster's meat in your home.'
But before Sky could show another annoyed expression, the monster tore space, and entered the crack.
Sky screamed in the face of unbearable pain. Travelling through space crack was too painful to him. When he had come to the Pentagon from earth, it wasn't through a space crack, but a space tube.
Space tube was a constructed space that allowed one to arrive at the location safely. But a space crack was different, one would have to travel through ether in a space crack.
Naturally travelling through ether was painful. Ether was also called death particle, so you can understand what would be travelling through a space of death particles.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!..... Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!...
Another round of System notifications rang out in Sky's mind, but his mind had already forcefully made him lose consciousness.
....
When Sky opened his eyes once more, he saw a Dragon, a Black Dragon was staring at him with his arms over his chest. The Dragon still had his Overbearing look, but Sky did not care, he immediately got up and punched the Dragon's face.
"Fuck you and your System, stop annoying me!!!!!" With that he punched the Black Dagon with his hand that was covered by the Black Dagon Scales.
Crack, crack, ... crack.
Under the dumbfounded gaze of Sky, the Black Dragon's Head cracked and fell to the ground.
Sky saw this head for a whole minute before he turned to his back.
"You deserve that old man."
....
