Chapter 49 - The Winged-Humans (10) (Rumbling Dragons)

Having been very nearly stunned for a moment by the suddenness of the voice, Night Silver was silent for a moment as a breeze blew by. And the stones began to move, revealing the form of a dragon. I don't recognize this one at all, but I'd be willing to bet their title has something to do with stones or maybe… 

"I see I have stunned you into silence, Goddess worshiped by the Winged-Humans. No… You look a little different… Stronger? Weaker? I don't know, but you'll fall just as easily as the last one did. As you can clearly see." The Dragon Lord glanced towards the head of the stone statue. "For I am the Mountain Dragon Lord. It would be in your best interest to fear my power. My brother is the Dragon Emperor…" He explained. 

"Ah, so are you saying you're as strong as your brother? Holding such a lofty title as Emperor must mean he is powerful, no?" Night Silver asked. Mountain Dragon Lord doesn't seem to have the knowledge of what's happened. Which means he has been estranged by his family. This is good, very good. I'm going to use this to my advantage. He is clearly no weakling, but I wouldn't put him in the same category as the other whelps I've dealt with. Still, he shouldn't be an issue to kill, I will take damage though. 

"Ha, you jest. My brother is the Emperor… No, I am as strong as he is. And I'll be even stronger after I eat you." Mountain Dragon Lord answered, about to be truthful but his pride got in the way. This floating elf… Why is she not scared of me? I'm one of the oldest living Dragon Lords. One of the strongest Only two of them are stronger than me. My brother and his wife. All other dragons would tremble before me. Yet, this elf doesn't seem fazed. I must kill her. No one should be this calm in front of us. 

"Huh, a shame. I thought I would give you a chance to submit to me. I could use a subordinate with your strength. Though, I should be honest, I do not like how you seem to be stupid beyond measure. You destroyed a statue that had no power and claimed that you killed a goddess." Night Silver said, shaking her head and shrugging. 

"Huh… That voice… Is that you, Nature's Mother?" A voice rumbled out from a cave nearby. If that's really her I'll finally be able to leave my uncle's imprisonment. 

The sound of a new voice didn't really shock Night Silver, rather what did shock her was she recognized it. A sinking feeling overwhelmed her for a moment. There's no way that dragon lord would take part in this atrocity. Not if they fought such a deadly battle against the epitome of what this scene represents. 

"You shut up! How dare you speak without permission. Spouting lies about my brother being dead. I ought to kill you for such reckless lies." The Mountain Dragon Lord snapped at the other dragon. "It's a good thing your scales are bright, because your mind certainly isn't. My idiot nephew Brightness Dragon Lord." He continued with his insults. 

"Ha" Night Silver started, as a smirk came over her. "AHAHA" She continued laughing, holding out arms. "AHAHAHA!" She continued her hysterical laughter as she watched the face of the Mountain Dragon Lord grow concerned and wary of her on account of sounding insane. After all, fighting an insane opponent isn't great. Berserkers are always terrifying no matter how strong you are. There is just something about them that is simply unnerving. And this is the perfect time to practice… 

Yep, that sounds like her… That kind of laughter couldn't be made by someone who's actually scared. Let me see here… Connecting a telepathic… And…

"Lady Nature's Mother, can you hear me?" 

"Of course I can. I'll keep this laugh up to hold him back for a while. I can handle him alone, but do you want to help?" 

"Uh, I'd like to help but the thing is… I'm rather injured and I'm quite hungry. I came to inform my Uncle of what happened. Then he beat me up and has been starving me for over a month. So I'm afraid I'd be of little assistance." 

"I see… That is a bit rough. I suppose you took the detour here shortly after leaving the lake I created there. I was wondering why there was a group of people missing from the move. If you want to help fight this idiot I'll heal you and give you something that will fill your belly." 

"I'd be grateful for that. I'm not as strong as him but I should be able to hold him off for quite some time. That is… If you wanted to use that one spell again, such a beautifully powerful spell."

"Such a spell is far too good for that uncle of yours. I have a different one I'd like to use. I think you'll find it… Hmm, interesting. It's also much faster to cast and you won't be affected by it." 

"All the more reason why I like you. So kind it's moving something deep inside… Oh, there is something I'd like to ask before we begin." 

"Hmm, what is it?" I'm gonna ignore that other comment…

"Could you show me the spell you used to transform? I want to try and make my own version." 

"I don't see why not… Sure, I don't mind. But I'd appreciate it if you do a little something else for me as well. It shouldn't be too hard. I just need you to show that there are decent Dragons out there. A tribe that used to live here will be returning here. I'd like for you to aid in their transport and reconstruction."

"Deal. Now let's begin." 

"I don't know why you're cackling like that… But, it ends now!" The Mountain Dragon Lord roared, releasing his dragon's breath. A plume that seemingly engulfed the vast majority of the mountain top. 

The Brightness Dragon Lord broke out of the prison he had been placed in, at the same moment, shocking the Mountain Dragon Lord in the process. "Uncle, you aren't nearly as strong as my father was. Even so, you're a clear and present danger to the world I wish to see. So today will be the day you die." The Brightness Dragon Lord roared out with his own breath, landing a direct hit on the Mountain Dragon Lord.
