"You two, if you don't get your ass over here, I'll make sure you do not leave this place alive!" The old man directly commanded Kiev and Aria to face him and walk in his direction. The two, which have no control of their bodies at the moment, walked straight to the old man. When they reached 5 meters away, both of them were forced to be down on their knees.
"Old man, please, this lowly one would do everything to avoid suffering an untimely death. I hope this old man would not take offense in trespassing into your great territory. We humbly seek this sir's forgiveness." Kiev is on his last straw, he knew that the old man is serious and he must be really careful not to get into this old man's nerves. While Aria, on the other hand, has not spoken and just stared at the old man with contempt.
"Well, what do we have here? It seems like this is the new young miss of the Eternal Faction? We've hit the jackpot, Pierre!" The old man laughs heartily when he recognized Aria's identity. Meanwhile, Kiev and Frank are unaware of Aria's background "Eternal Faction? Do you also belong to some strong force? Then you do have a way to get us out of this tight bind right?" Kiev told Aria while Aria just silently sighed.
"What about it old man? Are you willing to offend my Eternal Faction for not letting me go? It seems you have guts, let's see you try and hurt this young miss." Aria gave a sinister gaze to the old man, the old man doesn't seem fazed with Aria's threats instead the old man walked to Aria and give her a tight slap. *whack*
"I think you're unaware of the situation young miss, every one of us had woken up from our slumber within this week and no one had yet to even reached level 50. The highest leveled individual does not even belong to your Eternal faction nor my Fallen Dragon Family. He is an individual who despised factions the most yet, was able to rival their strengths. Surely, no one is scarier than Jamie Felstroke. If he's in your Eternal faction then I'll deliver you back to your faction safe and sound. But, the thing is, he isn't! So don't get your hopes up. We're not scared of your Eternal Faction!"
Aria was in disbelief at what the old man has said. She knew that the old man has a point and can't help herself being worried that she might not be able to escape in this dire situation.
Kiev saw right into Aria's plans but could only bite his lips. He hopes in his heart that the Eternal Faction is nearby for him to be able to escape this situation. While racking his brains for a method to escape, the system in his conscious rang, and an item that resembles a four-leafed clover appeared. Kiev laughs in himself and thought that the item was useless so he didn't bother much. "And here I thought that I'll be having my awakening. Damn it!" Kiev is about to close the systems panel when the system prompted him to take the item. Whenever he tries to close the panel, the system would intervene so he had no choice but to take it. When the four-leafed clover reached his palm, time froze and a slot machine appeared in his system. A lady was seen sitting in this very machine and the lady is prompting Kiev to pull out the stick to trigger the slot machine.
"This lady? I don't know what you're up to but I hope this helps me!" Kiev pulled the stick to the slot machine and the numbers rolled-in. When Kiev pulled the stick, the lady held a poster that states "Multiplier x 1", he has no clue as to what the lady meant but he still secretly hopes that this would've been his chance.
The slot machine turned and what appeared is the number "689", the lady sitting in the machine giggled and blew a kiss to Kiev. Kiev was in shock as to what happened but, immediately, the system provided a message. "Luck stat has increased by 689 for 10 minutes".
Kiev has no idea what benefits this scenario would bring but time seems to revert back to its usual state and his body is still under the control of the old man. "Yeah right. What a useless skill! What I asked for is for me to be released in this control for a chance to escape but nothing happened sigh.." While Kiev is about to surrender to his fate, the Earth shook and a dragon appeared directly beneath their feet. For unknown reasons, this dragon seems to wake up from its slumber when Kiev is stepping right below its exposed head which appears as ground.
"HHH-old up!! A dragon??! How the hell does this world even have a dragon?! I must be in a dream, Yes I am in a dream!!" Kiev's eyes almost popped from its sockets when he was dragged, sitting in the dragon's head.
Aria, Frank, and the two seniors could hardly believe what they saw but the moment they saw the dragon they're scared with their life, so they gathered every bit of power they have and run as far as they could.
"Ddd-ragon?! Heavens! What is a dragon doing here? Is this one of your fallen dragon's guardians??!" Aria asked the old man and the other senior where the dragon came from but they are clueless that there's a real dragon in their territory.
"This old man does not know that there's a live dragon in this old man's territory! We only named ourselves the fallen dragon family because it's a cool name! Never had we even thought of that a real thing resides here! Fuck!" The old man, the senior, Aria, and Frank ran for their lives while Kiev is still atop the dragon.
The dragon seems to have noticed them but did not pursue them. Instead, the dragon flew a thousand miles, looked for a cave, and slept as if nothing happened. Kiev, at the moment, is dumbstruck, he thought that when the dragon decided to land, the first thing it would do is turn him into a snack. "That was a close one! The heavens have eyes! Fortunately, I'm away from those monsters!" When the dragon has fallen asleep, Kiev had the courage to go down its head and when he reached the ground, to his surprise, he saw a pedestal and a sword named "Breaker" stuck on it.
"This.. Now, this is what I'm talking about! HAHAHA!!"
