Red Blood
The Divulgarea de Sine (lll)
The morning sun came out carrying a pleasant light of yellow gold in the eastern horizon. The plant welcomes the bright one with joy while reflecting gleaming dew grains on the leaves like a beautiful crystal. In the middle of the forest, there was a former furnace that had been extinguished leaving a puff of smoke with a log that had been charred. Four adventurers were still lying down except for one sitting on a rock awakened while yawning, twisting all muscles ready for the new day.
Everyone said their morning greetings with pillow faces. Ilfina with her habit of sleeping in a sitting position is the most excited to start the day. Unlike before, the face of the veiled girl was brighter this morning. He was more able to smile sweetly as bright as the sun that shone on them to all his friends. It was different from last night, where he looked tangled and riled up.
He inhaled a long breath of morning air tightening back the lungs he had not exercised for a long time. Ilfina did a little stretching, jumped a little, then walked around the friends who were still unconscious for about ten minutes.
“Morning all.”
“Ilfina,” Miria yawns, “seeing your smile in the morning like this is heart-felt. How are you feeling?”
“Much better than last night.”
“Well, this is more delicious,” said Ula is still in the position of rubbing eyes, “seeing beautiful women in the morning smiling sweetly is different. From last night, pouting continues.”
Ilfina gave a small smile with slightly flushed cheeks, she blushed. After the warm greeting was over, they started packing to continue the journey. The destination this time was a river not far in front of them. The sound of clear river water gives a very beautiful natural feel. Ilfina, Ula and Miria wash their faces with a few splashes of water. The rhino himself immersed his head in the water while drinking with satisfaction.
There are red berries that grow on the banks of the river. Miria picked it up a lot as breakfast. While waiting for them to eat, Ilfina played a golden flute following the natural tone and soothing nuances that were all around. All collaborate regularly contribute beautiful sounds that are very good to hear when you wake up.
In the middle of enjoying a quiet morning, there was a huge shadow overhead. The giant winged beast with its head taper passed by causing a very strong wind gust for those at the bottom. It was a dragon!
Everyone immediately stopped eating and then ran to follow where the dragon was flying. They returned to the edge of the island filled with areas of gray rocks. Place Taring put message board. It turned out that there was a dragon up there who was making a nest by breaking into one of the rocks on the upper plains with fire. He flew constantly while trying to keep his fire focused on one spot.
Ilfina and comrades still saw the huge beast from below, not taking any action. They walked over the slopes slowly trying to take a closer look. Everyone thought about how the most powerful way to catch a dragon without hurting them.
Debomb it!
But while crawling on the edge of the cliff, there was a GIGANTIC BLACK DRAGON THAT SUDDENLY APPEARED IN THE DIRECTION BEHIND!
“RAN!!!”
The dragon shrieked very loudly then spouted fire! The four of them immediately jumped from the cliff dodging so as not to be roasted alive. Fortunately, the rock they were climbing was not too high. Hearing the black dragon shriek, the red dragon that was above their heads looked to the source of the voice. He then went down to see the four prey that were confused on the hillside.
Miria tried to crawl back into the forest. But his steps were stopped by a red dragon that suddenly blocked the road with its huge legs. Large feet with nails along the tree are exactly a few centimeters in front of the face. He looked back to run. Again his steps stopped because there was a black dragon that was now blocking.
“Oh, shit!”
Ilfina yells, “Miria! How to catch his dragon?”
“I think you mean, how do we not get caught?”
Ilfina realized that they were being flanked by two hungry dragons. For the time being, the two dragons looked at each other and spread their wings as wide as possible as if to show who was the strongest. At the moment they are all like being used as betting material for power.
The red dragon snorted, the black dragon snorted, one blew the tail, another did the same. The two of them were bullying before entering the actual battle. The red dragon shouted, the black dragon shouted, then both of them advanced fiercely in their respective attacks. Ilfina, Rhino, Ula and Miria ran as fast as they could into the forest like insects that almost stepped on shoes.
Everyone noticed the deadly fight of the two sky-ruling beasts. They claw each other, kick and snatch with tails. Fireballs from the mouth came out several times scorching part of the forest. It was hard to tell who was superior, these two dragons drew in strength. If only there were no magical protectors, they would have all been charred long ago.
“What should we do, Miria?”
“I don't know.”
“What? Didn't you say you could tame a dragon?”
“That's a land dragon, usually when meeting with us Krairon, they won't attack. I don't know anything about surface dragons, especially now that there are two.”
“Sorry.”
“We'd better see first they fight.”
The two dragons were both bounced into the sabetage of each other's tails. Both are keeping balance. After standing up straight again, the two looked at each other in close proximity. They opened their mouths wide at the same time and two giant balls of fire appeared on each mouth ready to be thrown as a final attack.
“ALL SHELTER!”
The kaboom!
An enormous explosion of flames leveled the forest there in an instant. Like a volcanic eruption, all jet black and charred. Rocks and trees turned into red flames instantly emitting extremely dangerous heat radiation. It was fortunate that Ilfina and the others survived thanks to the protective magic of the veiled girl. The two dragons that attacked each other suddenly collapsed simultaneously with a slightly charred skin. But strangely there were no burns, so hard scales on the skin that even an explosion like that just now had no effect.
After everything died down, those who were hiding started to come out closer to the dragon. The two dragons were still alive, but were once suffocated to run out of energy.
“How many dragons do we need?” Said Ilfina while caressing the scales of the red dragon.
“I think two is enough.”
Miria touched both noses of the dragon simultaneously. From the forehead, a greenish light flashed a few times. The longer the light spread throughout the body including the body of the dragon. The three of them were now shrouded in the bright green aura light of Krairon's six-handed hand without any resistance from the dragon. Miria smiled behind the helmet.
Soon the two dragons opened their eyes in a daze. They both stood still with limp bodies.
“Nah, done. Now they both want to help us.” Miria.
“Did you just talk to a dragon?”
“That's. They say they want to help us if we want to help them.”
“How?”
“Cure them, can?”
Ilfina tried to touch the hard scales of the two dragons in front of her hesitantly. He tried to flow magic energy to the two of them simultaneously. The gigantic body was again enveloped in a magic aura but with a different color, golden yellow. Characteristics of the aura belonging to Ilfina. Slowly both of them can breathe more regularly, even occasionally out small bursts of fire from their mustachioed noses.
About twenty minutes later the black dragon and the red dragon had already risen again. They stood as stoutly as they were when full of energy. If only in ordinary conditions, the four of them would have already died into lunch in an instant. But these dragons bowed their heads to Miria like obedient pets. Now their mission to find the dragon is over.
Next they must find Taring. With flying vehicles the journey in search of the boy was much easier to do. Ilfina and Ula ride a red dragon they name Radia, while Rhino and Miria ride a black dragon named Ruba. For the first time ever the Rhino felt a pleasant sensation when flying above the air. Usually he was the one riding, never imagined that he would fly on a dragon. He was wailing with a smile looking at the view of the forest below.
“That's him! I saw the village there.”
Everyone went to follow Ilfina's command towards the village which was about fifty meters ahead. There is a gate that is intended to welcome those who visit the village. There it says—
“Southwest Village, I think Taring is here.”
Ilfina descended from Radia's back looking more clearly into the gate. The village is empty. There's no one at all. Everything was silent with no sign of human life. There were only cats and dogs walking back and forth on the streets. Orc statues perched on each side become decoration along with the red walls and roofs of housing that dominate.
Ilfina wondered, “what happened to this place?”
