As Ignisar, with its mouth open, launched towards Leonard in the hanging net, Leonard screamed very loudly and folded himself in a scared position, also disturbing all monsters that were close to their area. As soon as Ignisar closed its distance with Leonard, it instantly closed its mouth and completely landed on the ground. Both Ignisar and the unknown person laughed at Leonard's cowardice and his screams.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! I've missed doing that! WOOO! Well, that was a relief, HAHAHA you made my day… uh… hmmm… What's your name?"
Asked the unknown person as Leonard slowly unfolded himself and peaked cautiously towards his surroundings but did not respond.
"*sigh*... Come on! It's just a joke, get over it will ya?... Here let me help you get out"
The unknown person then grabs a rope and immediately drops Leonard, letting him out. As Leonard went out of the net and dusted off dirt from his clothes, he saw how big Ignisar was, putting him in a state of shock.
"...uh…eh…i-is that….a-a-a-a….D-DRAGON?!"
Leonard then shouts very loudly, disturbing the peace of the monsters within the area. He then stared at it and inspected it for a while and saw that it had a height of approximately eight feet, red-colored scales, a tail, and a pair of wings behind it.
"*sigh*... yes…yes…it is a dragon, so what?"
Responded by the unknown person to Leonard's reaction
"W-what do you mean so what?! ITS…A…DRAGON!"
"Yeah so, it's not like we don't have this in our-...Oh right! HAHAHAH we don't really know that we have one down here, huh? HAHAHAH! Well here's one, right?"
Answered the unknown person as he remembered that there was no information about dragons living in Hell.
"W-What are you doing with this thing? A-and, Oh! Who are you by the way? I don't know you!"
Responded Leonard as he cautiously looks at both Ignisar and the unknown person.
"Ah! right…right….ehem…I am the great adventurer from the kingdom of Maewyth, Vexen Bane!"
Ignisar then looks at him and signals him with a light growl
"Oh! And here at my right, is my companion dragon, Ignisar!"
Ignisar then shows off its skill as it breathes fire directly to the skies and spread its wings wide.
"Hmp, Show off!"
Said Vexen as he then approached Leonard and reached out to him for a handshake. As Leonard also reached, Vexen put away his hands and asked,
"And you are?"
"Oh!... I'm Leonard Morningstar, you can call me Leonard"
"Nice to meet you Leonard Mo-"
Answered Leonard but instantly shocked Vexen saying,
"Y-Your a 'Morningstar'?!...That means your father is.."
"Yes, my father is Lucifer Morningstar"
Leonard responded as he then reached for Vexen's hand for a handshake. After their introductions, they then decided to lie down and relax. The environment was filled with silence after Leonard told Vexen that he was the son of Lucifer Morningstar. As they sat beside yet another bonfire, Vexen, out of nowhere, asked Leonard.
"May I ask your majesty, Why is it that you are here in the dark forest"
"Please, just call me Leonard. About that, My mother sent me here on a quest to find the 'Doctor'"
Replied Leonard making both, Ignisar and Vexen, question eachother.
"The 'Doctor'? I've never encountered one, especially in this forest. The only thing that I encounter and created a bond with is Ignisar, but the 'Doctor'? I don't know actually"
Responded Vexen as Ignisar agreed with a nod of its head.
"Please, do remember. Are there any suspicious things that you have found along your journey that prove that there are others in this forest?"
Asked Leonard with a pleasing tone, making Vexen and Ignisar think hard in their seats.
"Well, there is one… There was this time when I was randomly peeing in a bush, I accidentally saw this weird object that looks like a brace for…wings?"
Answered Leonard as he engaged himself with this object,
"Hmmm… a brace? Huh… The 'Doctor'... Hmmm, maybe… maybe his helping something! Do you remember where did you find the item?"
Responded Leonard and asked Vexen about the object,
"Hmmm… well I saw it two weeks earlier in that direction"
Answered Vexen as he pointed out where he saw the object relieving and shocking Leonard at the same time.
"*sigh*... glad you rememb-...wait…TWO WEEKS EARLIER?!"
"Oh! HAHAHAHA yes, two weeks earlier!"
Responded Vexen with complete assurance visible on his face,
"HOW?! I can't last that long! I'm out of food and resources!"
"Oh! You're out of food? Huh, well don't you worry, because I, Vexen Bane, The great adventurer of Kingdom Maewyth, will help you throughout your adventure! For you being the demon king's son and as for being another adventurer!"
Answered Vexen as he held his head up high and posed like a superhero. Ignisar then approached and lowered his body for Vexen to climb up. Ignisar then patiently waits for Leonard, who is lost as to what to do.
"*sighs*...Oh, come on! Leonard! Climb up here and we're gonna head on to our adventure!"
"...Uh..w-what? What?...WHAT?! You want me to ride Ignisar!"
Responded Leonard as he shakes his legs in fear,
"*sighs*...Ignisar, you know what to do"
Ignisar then nodded and proceeded to fly towards Leonard, successfully grabbing him by his shoulders, making him shocked and more scared.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!! PLEASE PUT ME DOWN!! AAAAAHHH"
"HAHAHAHA!.. First up, to the base!"
Leonard responded as Vexen calmly flew, riding Ignisar with a smile on his face, and headed directly north to where their bases are located.
