The Last Descendant of the Holy Sword Family

Obstacles in Travel

Zen, Fernanse, and Irene were in a horse-drawn carriage. They were heading to the 2nd ancestral castle to attend the meeting .

"Hey Zen."

"What's Fernanse?"

"Don't you say we'll see something interesting soon. Then why do we have to sit here for such a long time?"

The long journey made Fernanse feel bored. His facial expression was similar to when he took Zen out of his room.

"O you Fernanse, did I ever say that?"

"I'm sure you've said that. You can ask Miss Irene if you forget."

"Irene, is it true what Fernanse said?"

"Sorry your honor, I don't remember what the matter was."

"You heard it was Fernanse. Even Irene said that I never said that."

"Yes, I heard, I heard."

The atmosphere in the car became quiet, inside the train could only be heard the sound of the book sheet being flipped.

"Oh Irene, if I may know what book you're reading?"

"Zen stop talking in such a tone. You sound disgusting."

"Wouldn't I speak in such a tone it take away your boredom?"

"No, you're boring me all the time."

"What's right, are you seriously Fernanse?"

"Yes, you're serious."

The atmosphere of the train again became quiet. Just like before, only the sound of paper was heard inside the carriage.

"By the way Irene said, you haven't answered my question. What book are you reading?"

"Book that tells the story of the hero's journey."

"Oh, so yeah."

"What's Zen? Looks like you became discouraged after hearing the contents of the book. Do you hate heroes? "

"No, I don't hate heroes at all. I just don't like them."

"Why?"

"That's because they're so weak."

Zen has read many books about heroes. But in all the books he read, they all had something in common.

In all the books, according to Zen all the heroes are very weak. In all the books Zen reads, heroes always lose something valuable to them. That's why Zen doesn't really like heroes who are highly respected by humans.

"Then forgive me your majesty. I didn't know you didn't like heroes. I'll keep this book."

"That doesn't need to be Irene. You can read the book as you please. Don't you like heroes anyway?"

"Not your highness. Just like you I don't like heroes either."

"Heh. This is the first time I've heard that."

"Isn't that because I've never told you before?"

"By remembering, remember, I think you're right."

The train that was riding stopped. As a result of the shock due to the train stopping suddenly, Fernanse who was sitting casually now fell.

Fernanse who did not know what was outside asked Zen.

"No, we haven't reached the 2nd ancestral castle yet."

"So why did we stop?"

"Hmm, how do you say it. Maybe you'd better see it yourself out, after that you'll definitely see something interesting."

"really?"

"Yes"

Hearing Zen's words, Fernanse immediately went out of the car. Outside he sees something that makes him very happy, so happy that he can forget the boredom he felt during the trip.

Fernanse's face also looks better than before. Previously Fernanse always showed a face that looks boring, but this time Fernanse showed a happy face like a child who gets a new toy.

"Zen, is that genuine?"

"Yes it's real."

"How do you know it's real? You still haven't even come out and seen them?"

"I can tell by the aura they give off."

Besides being able to change his aura, Zen can also feel the aura of other living things from a considerable distance. Whether it's humans, monsters, demons, or vampires, Zen can sense their aura and distinguish it clearly.

Also from the beginning Zen had known that their journey would be disrupted, which is why Zen did not show a face that looks bored.

3 Dragons flying in front of the horse-drawn carriage that Zen rode, Fernanse looked at them with a face of Pleasure. As for Irene, she was not at all worried about the current situation. He was constantly reading the book he was holding.

Seeing Irene who remained calm, Zen finally got out of the horse carriage. Zen looked at the 3 dragons in front of them starting to descend to the ground. The dragons have different colors, some are red, green and black.

One of the red dragons breathed fire into their carriage. The burst of fire made the area around the Zen train into a burnt ground, the tree trees around the Zen train also directly became a grain of ash.

Although the dragon's breath was extremely powerful, it was still not enough to destroy the barrier that Zen had put up.

"Let's not it be very dangerous if we get hit by that fire?"

"It would be dangerous if we were exposed to that fire. But Fernanse, even if you know that fire is very dangerous, you still don't feel scared. Even the look in your eyes right now is like looking at a new toy."

"You know what else, you know, it's not that I used to come out of the castle so I rarely saw creatures like them. Even after becoming a dark spirit I only saw them a few times."

"Oh, so yeah."

"Yes. But don't you think 3 dragons are too many to fight against? What are you gonna do?"

"What are you afraid of? The 3 dragons were probably only in their 50s. So they're not a big deal."

"Oh, so yeah. Then you fight them."

"Without you telling me to do it, too."

Zen walked away towards the direction the 3 dragons were in. Zen stopped walking when the distance between him and the three dragons became about 10 meters. The three dragons looked down on Zen coming towards them.

"Humans,... Not Vampires. Do you think you can beat us alone?"

The red-colored dragon spoke with a tone that sounded quite arrogant. Just by looking at it Zen could tell that the red Dragon was the leader of the other 2 dragons.

"Yes. Defeating a young dragon like you guys is easy for me."

"You're humbling us, you lowly Vampire!!"

The red dragon attacked Zen with his hand. But before the dragon hand can approach Zen, Zen has first moved. In a short time, Zen was already in front of the red dragon's face.

"Eat this!"

Zen smacked the red dragon's face. As a result of the attack, the red dragon crashed far enough away.
