The Investors

Chapter 37

Cia Yonggan's heart seemed to want to be dislodged for the sake of seeing the creature in front of him. His entire body was sweating coldly and trembling just like Xiao Meilin who was behind him. His tongue was a mute, unable to utter a word.

He could see clearly, the creature was so big, and his eyes were burning brightly as if they were embers, ready to burn whatever was in front of him.

The presence of this creature began to open his eyes, he began to believe the rumor that reported the death of his parents several years ago, caused by the anger of the dragon that burned all his farmland, including his home and his parents.

Presumably the bright glowing object in his hand is what triggers the anger of the dragon at that time. And this thing must have had a close bond with the dragon. Most likely this thing belongs to the dragon! Otherwise, not necessarily between this thing and the dragon is like having energy to attract each other. This thing will attract itself to the dragon when he closes his eyes, or takes his eyes off the luminous object.

There is only one way to prove his conjecture. He suddenly closed his eyes.

As a result, even though he had only closed his eyes for a few seconds, it was like pulling him to get closer to the dragon, causing his body and Xiao Meilin to jerk a few steps forward. He hurriedly reopened his eyes.

"Bugh!"

Inevitably, Xiao Meilin behind him again struck him firmly.

"Akh.." Xiao Meilin's unexpected scream got a powerful pull so from the front.

Seeing the object move just a little, the dragon reacted. "Hoarrrmmmhh.."

It was unclear whether it was an angry growl or an overflow of his joy. His eyes never escaped from that luminous thing.

"Cici, this thing seems to belong to him," said Cia Yonggan starting to dare to open his voice.

"Hmmm," Xiao Meilin said.

He this time preferred to stick his front body with Cia Yonggan's back, both his hands were on the young man's shoulders and his head was hidden behind that back.

It was nothing, Xiao Meilin did not want such an event to repeat itself. When he is pulled back forward, he does not have to collide with the young man he cannot remove from his body. Her front body hurts when it happens again.

Come to think of it, he actually felt embarrassed to be in this position with Cia Yonggan. There has never been a man so close to her. But his mind could not resist, being this close to Cia Yonggan, indeed made him feel at ease. His body that had been shivering due to rain felt more warmed up in this position.

"Cici, what do you think?" Cia Yonggan asked without realizing the girl who was clutching her back was in a state of unease.

"What?" he asked back.

His tone was not as usual, this time a little different. Usually the girl if talking confidently and firmly, but now sounds lazy, like someone who still feels sleepy and reluctant to leave the bed.

"This thing in my hand is the dragon's, what do you think? He seemed to want this thing," Cia Yonggan repeated his sentence.

"Then just give it to him," Xiao Meilin was like indifferent.

"How come? This thing is in my hands, it can't escape, Cici. If I could, I would have given it to him" explained Cia Yonggan.

Xiao Meilin did not answer. Instead he wrapped his hands around Cia Yonggan's stomach which made the young man misbehave.

"Twitter.. Tweet.. What are you doing this?" Cia Yonggan was about to resuscitate Xiao Meilin.

Just then, the dragon who had been looking at the astonished objects in Cia Yonggan's hands, suddenly moved forward. Although it was raining heavily and strong wind accompanied by lightning in the sky, it still could not muffle the sound of the dragon's steps. The ground seemed to shake a little as he stepped.

As soon as his figure was in front of that light, he stuck his head closer towards the object.

This thing really was like the most precious thing to him. And he was so happy when he was met with this favorite thing of mine. So happy was the creature, that Cia Yonggan himself could see his smiling expression.

Cia Yonggan had heard about dragons through stories and fairy tale books. Dragons love sparkling things, whether it's gold, copper, silver or gemstones, diamonds. Yet the most beloved of dragons is an object born of itself, which comes out of its own stomach and is forged by nature for thousands of years. It was a dragon mustika. Mustika that's what he made a toy. He can't part with his favorite toy. And most likely this thing in his hand was a dragon mustika!

If this is indeed a dragon mustika, it is certain that this belongs to the dragon, then the most entitled to have this is not him, but the dragon.

His mind drifted back to his dreams when he met his parents. In his dream, his parents said he had to conquer something that was waiting for him in his house. Is that something this dragon is? But how could he conquer it? Fear with just one move the dragon alone can take a piece of his life.

Lastly, his parents also advised that he should not be a hater, should not be a grudge. Indirectly, his parents gave a message so that he did not hate this dragon who had killed both his parents.

How could he have a grudge against this dragon, whereas he himself was aware that both his parents were on fire for hiding this precious object belonging to the dragon. In a sense, this dragon went berserk and burned his farm at that time because he wanted to reclaim his property.

Not many people can instill a sense of sincerity in him. Sincerely losing a loved one, sincerely accept the trials that come. Nor do many people realize that only sincerity is able to calm the body and soul. That only sincerity can awaken a person, nothing is eternal in this world. All will pass, it will be time to leave and be replaced with a new one. Nature has determined so, it is not feasible if humans still harbor excessive disappointment when an ordeal comes.

The dragon who had just looked at the mustika looked like it had just woken up. Presumably he just realized there was another creature that was there and was holding his favorite object.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhh!!!" he growled furiously so aware that his beloved object was in someone else's hands.

He was pounding, it seemed like his fate would be the same as the fate of his two parents, namely being burned to death by this dragon.

"Here, you take it!" he tried to calm himself.

Suddenly the dragon stuck out one of its front legs, like it was about to reach out to the mustika and take it. And a second later he again growled furiously once he realized it was not he could take from the hands of Cia Yonggan.

"Rooooooaaarrrrrrr!"

The dragon unexpectedly spouted a fierce fire from its mouth. The goal is only one, which is to destroy the person who holds his favorite object. Only then could he pick up his favorite thing.

But that can't happen. Looks like his favorite thing is protecting that guy. No stopping the burst of fire he let out, but still unable to burn it as well.

Cia Yonggan was astonished as well. He had already completely resigned when suddenly the dragon was spouting fire at him. But who would have thought it turned out that this object in his hand was like a shield that protected him and Xiao Meilin from the burst of fire that the dragon spewed.

The fire continued to pass to the left and right sides and the top. While his body and Xiao Meilin were inside the confinement of the fire. Not a single flame tongue had managed to lick his body.

Feeling that his attack was fruitless, the dragon grew even more furious. He then flapped his wings and flew into the air. And from the air he again spewed fire towards Cia Yonggan.

But Cia Yonggan who realized that this mustika can be a shield for himself and Xiao Meilin from the dragon attack, directing the mustika from the direction of the fire. Back when such an event repeated itself, the fire was just passing through spreading to all sides of his body.

While the dragon continued to attempt to attack the young man with his burst of fire. He tried to spout fire from all sides in the clouds. But every time he changed the position of the spray, every time it was Cia Yonggan twisted his body and re-directed the mustika in front of him.

The dragon finally stopped spouting fire. He's kind of desperate. He flew here and there while his mouth kept screaming in anger.

"Rkrnarrrrr... Roaaarr... Rrroaaarr."

His cloud of boisterousness mixed with the sound produced by his wing fists.

"Cici, this thing turns out to be able to raise a burst of fire!" Cia Yonggan said in amazement.

Xiao Meilin did not bother him. It seemed like the girl had truly surrendered her safety to Cia Yonggan. Even if the young man died, he would not be able to escape either. The fire that had passed by his side was also ignored, which he knew at this time his body felt very comfortable with holding this young man. He wished he could die with this comfort, forever wanting to hug Cia Yonggan.

Excited Cia Yonggan shouted back. "Come, return. Don't you want it so much? Here, take! I don't want it! I really don't want to have it. Just let go....!"

Not yet finished Cia Yonggan's sentence, the object in his hand suddenly spun like a top, spinning very quickly, making Cia Yonggan feel like his palm would blister. The thing that had felt a little chewy, it suddenly felt as hard as a rock and it was spinning on both of his palms at high speed without him being able to stop.

"Aaaaaaaarrrrrrggghhhhh!!" Cia Yonggan screamed in pain.

Hearing Cia Yonggan scream, then Xiao Meilin straightened her head behind Cia Yonggan's back.

In panic he asked. "What's wrong with you, Yonggan?"

But the young man could not answer. He is still struggling with the pain caused by friction mustika with both palms.

Then unexpectedly it slipped from both hands and shot very quickly into his stomach.

"Blasshssss....!!!"

As soon as the mustika hit Cia Yonggan's stomach, it exploded and the light that was centered on the mustika spread out in all directions very quickly.

As soon as the explosion was over, the place suddenly became pitch-black. Only occasionally can land be seen bright due to the lightning in the sky that never stops. The dragon shadow was flying over there still looming reflected clearly every time the lightning illuminated this place. The light produced by the lightning increasingly made the dragon that was still circling in space to look even more terrifying.

Where at this time the dragon was seen with full force was dipping into the land, getting ready to hit Cia Yonggan and Xiao Meilin who no longer had a dragon mustika shield like that!

"Parrrrrrrrrrrrr...!!!"
