War was raging on the whole continent of Ishgar, there were two sides:
- On the one hand the dragons of the west, they wanted to make war to claim the supremacy of the dragons on the human race. They wanted to make the human race slaves and food for dragons,
-On the other side is the eastern dragon, they wanted to make peace with the human race and live in harmony with them. But they were at a disadvantage, and even some of theirs turned to the enemy.
The two sides did not yet know that a third side would observe them and take advantage of the confusion of the war "to hunt prey", and thus be able to strengthen themselves without anyone noticing.
Meanwhile, in a large palace. A group of people were meeting. They discussed the course of the war, then a sound of footsteps interrupted their meeting. They were turning to the door, when it opened and a large dragon came out. The vast majority of them had frightened looks before pretending that nothing had happened. The big dragon was Belserion, the dragon of virtue, he paid no attention to their looks, but rather turned his head towards a woman seated on a throne.
Belserion " Irene! I'm back ! "
The woman on the throne was Irene, she was the queen of the Kingdom of Dragonof, the main force against the western dragons. She was the only one who looked worriedly at the dragon. Beside her was her husband Rung.
Irene " Belserion-sama ! You go well? "
Belserion " Don't worry Irene! I'm fine ! "
Irene " How is the situation on the battlefield? "
Belserion " Unfortunately, things are not going well. We still deplore losses, and still other dragons joined the opposing camps. "
As soon as the news came out of the dragon's mouth, the other people in the room began to argue. They had worried expressions on their faces, which showed that the situation was very bad.
Irene " So there is no good news. And how are the dragon movements on the other side going? "
Belserion " They make a lot of movements, but they are quite strange! "
Irene " Why strange ?! "
Belserion " Because they move as if they were looking for dragons. "
Irene " Pourquois est-ce qu'ils rechercheraient des dragons? "
Belserion " Apparently a large number of dragons have disappeared from their side, and they don't have any since from them since. "
Rung " It may be a trap! "
Belserion " It is unlikely, They have practically the advantage at the moment! Knowing them, I can't see them taking so much trouble just to trap us."
Rung " But still ... "
Irene " It does not matter ! But in which region have the dragons disappeared? "
Belserion " It was in the neighboring lands northwest of here, after the mountain ranges, an area with many canyon networks. "
Irene " What is there? I hope there is no village there. "
Ministre(-) " No, for a year and a half, there has not been a soul living there. "
Irene " Why ? "
Ministre(-) " There was an incident, people said that during a dragon attack, a star fell from the sky and then the dragons stopped their attacks in this region. And then a rumor spread that this land was cursed. And a strange disease has spread, many of the villagers have left, but those who have remained have never been seen since. And even what are going to see what happened has never returned. This reinforced the rumor of the cursed land. "
Irene " Why am I not aware of this? "
Rung " Your Majesty, now the priority is war. You couldn't waste precious time just for some villages. "
Irene " Priority or not, I have to go quickly to investigate! "
Rung " Think about your majesty, and if something happens to you. "
Belserion " Don't worry! I will accompany her ! "
After that no one left, Irene and Belserion headed for the cursed lands to investigate. After passing the mountain ranges, they saw that the place was deadly silent.
Irene " Belserion goes down a bit, we have to take a closer look. "
Belserion " Okay ! "
After descending, they observed the remains of a village, the village was left in ruins. There were corpses scattered all over the place.
Irene " It's so horrible! How did it happen? They all died, all that remained. "
Belserion " Wait! There is something wrong! There are also dragon corpses, some of them are even quite recent ! "
On closer inspection, some corpses are still shedding new blood.
Belserion " Wait, there seems to be a survivor ! "
There was a dragon who was breathing weakly.
Belserion " Stay with us, tell us what happened. "
Dragon survivor " It was this madwoman, she rejoices of her wild hunt. "
Before he could finish speaking, he was impaled by a luminous sword.
??? " There was still one left, good now that it's over. So who do we have here? "
