Chapter 59 - Chapter 1 [Hope Anew] (Page 53)

After a bit Skrul arrived back with Star who immediately went for the food the moment she saw the feast we were having. Sabre just chuckled seeing how Star acted when she saw the food "glutinous child" she mumbled. Which prompted Star to look over to Sabre although she was surprised to see Sabre as dragons were already rare enough to come by. "What? Surprised to see another of your kind?" Sabre asked as she took a seat on a chair against the wall.

Skrul also did the same on a chair on the opposite side of Sabre "You half dragons are all the same when it comes to food." They said making a 'tsk, tsk, tsk' sound as they sat down crossing their legs.

Sabre scoffed at that and looked away ignoring Skrul while we were mostly just enjoying the food. "The actors are finally all on stage, it's about time" a voice reverberated through the room.

Sabre and Skrul immediately got up grabbing their weapons "Who's there, show yourself!" she called out looking around. The rest of us also stopped eating, looking around as River thought back to himself on the shadow he glimpsed.

Before anyone could act a black mist covered the room preventing escape "Me? I am nothing more than a ghost." the same voice said as the shadows in a particular spot condensed into a figure, the same figure River saw in the corner.

Now River could get a good look of as it was standing before all of them without disappearing like when he first saw it. It had a vaguely humanoid body structure with 4 pairs of glowing red eyes and two pairs of horns. Although it had 3 pairs of arms each one was wielding a weapon with a pair of rather large wings sprouting from its back. Its legs were like that of a wolfs but feet like that of a dragons.

River thought for a bit knowing this would be a gamble before he spoke"You… you were that weird shadow at the corner?" Skrul looked over to him with wide eyes, even though as a skeleton their eyes were fixed in size.
