The Indomitable Will [1]

Clank—

I closed the door behind me and sat down on the ground, opening the wooden box to reveal the dragon bone. The bone wasn't big, about the size of my fist, and was entirely gray in color with purple runes surrounding it. 

The moment I opened the box, an oppressive feeling surrounded the room. 

It made it hard to breathe. 

I also felt it, but I wasn't so sure it was due to the bone. 

Perhpas... 

It was out of excitement. 

"What should I do...?" 

Rather than diving immediately and transfusing the bone in my, I turned to my right to look at Owl-Mighty who was staring at the bone with a rare apprehension. 

"I do not know how you were capable of getting your hands on such a powerful bone, but you should be careful." 

".....I know that much." 

There was still a will left within the bone. 

From what I knew, I needed to overcome it with my mental resilience before transfusing the bone in me.
