Chapitre 7: Chapter 6: Confronting a Dragon and the Vice Captain
The sound of chime made me expect new quest or I leveled up but when I looked at the screen, it was a Tutorial
-
You received a new tutorial (how to use a wind glider) [Device]!
You are about to teleport to a recommended place any moment.
Advice: Watch your step!
–
I blinked my eyes. Suddenly, Diona, Wansai and everyone else vanished. I found myself standing on top of a tower that looked exactly like the tower of Eifiel. And when I looked down, "Holy freaking' cow! IT'S TOO HIGH!
My knees started to shake.
A screen suddenly appeared before my face.
–
(Keypoint) The device is already attached to your back. You think you can glide? Of course you can! Don't worry no one's ever been hurt while resting a glider!
Warning: There are also some wind gliders that have never gone through a quality assurance!

What? Hey! Is this some kind of joke? Why-

Tutorial on wind gliding:
What is a wind glider?
-A wings. Literally wings. But unlike birds, these wings do not let you fly; they make you glide. You can't flap the wings. You ride the wind.
Steps:
The device is already attached to your back and activated. You do not have to worry about how to activate it when you need it. Its automatic
Pay attention to the way you glide. Navigate the direction you wanted to land. You don't need wind for gliding, you just need to control the glider to the specific direction you want to go.
Sometimes a phenomenon called wind current may disturb your gliding. Sometimes you will get stuck inside or lead you astray out of your designated landmark. All you have to do is deactivate the device by the same inner voice command.
Since you can't flap your glider. You must deactivate it and perform a rapid fall to unstuck yourself or you don't stray from wind current. When you feel like you free yourself, activate the glide with the same method and continue gliding.
—
"Oh, it sounds like it's too easy," I said to myself.
–
A mark has been set for you. All you need is to glide and reach the finish line before you run out time!
–
Huh? Time? This is my first time gliding and-"
-
Time starts now!"
–
I didn't have a choice but to jump. I was falling almost immediately but suddenly something from my back spread out. The wind pushed me up. I tried to control the glider by redirecting it to the visible circle below but the wind kept on pushing us away.
I had to use all my strength to navigate away from the slightly strong wind. And when I looked at the timer on the screen on my left side, I had one minute left.
I cursed and tried harder to go against the wind. Finally after countering the wind's moment I was able to land before the time was up.
-
Tutorial is completed! You are now a licensed wind glider!
You can view your wind glider in your Main menu.

I blinked again and I found myself back in front of the Cathedral but everything became chaotic.
"Red! Come here! Enter the cathedral! The Evil dragon has attacked again! Hurry! Don't you just stand there!"
Just when I was about to run, a tornado suddenly appeared and I was caught in it. The swirling wind inside made it difficult for me to move. I was trying to get out when I heard a voice…
"...chan urrainn tuilleadh…"
"Huh? Who is talking? Tell me!" I scream, unsure someone will hear it.
"…chomh painmhar…ag iarraidh a bheith saor.."
"Who are you!! I can't understand you! I only speak english!"
Suddenly, the tornado seemed to slow down. A dragon, who I saw with a man in the forest, descended a bit to where I was stuck. He was looking at me. His bloodshot and slit eyes started at and without moving his mouth, he said this.
"Na gcloiseann tú mé, óg?"
"I'm sorry I don't understand you. But I know your name. You are Breeze!" I said.
I felt like I'm floating and the tornado seemed to become gentle as the dragon approached me.
"Ah..so you are from another world," the dragon finally spoke the language I use. English.
"Y-you know how to speak english?"
"Yes," he said as his wings flapped. "A friend of mine gifted me the ability to speak foreign language. He said one day if I have to meet someone like him, I would be able to speak," he added.
"Your friend, he was like me?"
"Yes. But that was many moons ago. It was so long that I almost forgot his face. What is your name, traveler from another world?"
"Red. My name is Red."
"Red, how did you come here to this wretched planet?"
"It was because of a female god! She took away my sister and when I woke up, I'm already here."
"Tell me about this God, Red. Maybe I knew who she was. There are a lot of goddesses and gods used to walk on this planet. Ah, but that time is long gone."
"She has red hair, like the flame of a candle. She has red armor and red snake-eyes. Her skin complexion is too pale like she doesn't have blood at all. Do you know her?"
The dragon became silent as if he was thinking.
"Do you know her?"
"Yes. I knew who you were talking to but I do not know her name."
"Do you know where I can see her? I really wanted my sister back." I said. Hope started to fill my heart.
"I'm sorry but I do not know where. Only I know her face. But I do not know her name. The only information I know was that she was an ancient one, too old."
Sadness ate my heart away.
"I'm sorry it didn't help, Red."
"No, it's okay. But what kind of language have you spoken before? I heard that same language when I was outside the Cathedral."
"Pardon but no one knew that language. How did you-"
"I heard it from the apparition of people that was executed before that giant statue," I said and pointed to Osmia.
The dragon roared. It was so loud that I had to cover my ears as tight as I could.
"The false God! The one who killed my companion!" He roared. "And the people who supported him and the true Anemo God! She was the one who cursed me! I wanted to destroy the city she claimed to worship!"
"But there's also innocent people in that city."
The Dragon looked at me and suddenly roared louder as if he was in pain. He turned his back on me when I saw a large mass of black things on his back. It was like a hardened black paint that coagulated in his wound. The black hardened substance was glowing and I could see roots that slowly spread under Breeze's scales.
Maneuvering the glider, I stepped on his back and touched the hardened substance. A black slimy thing jumped on my hand and as soon as it attached to my hand, pain erupted within me.
I screamed. It was for a brief moment. The black slimy thing jumped back to the hardened substance as if I had a disease and it avoided me.
What was that? I ask myself. If that small amount of slimy thing hurt me like I was crushed by a bus, what more else if I had a whole thing like Breeze? He's in pain! And that's why he's attacking the Central!
"What the heck is this thing?" I asked him.
"Magic Devorer," he replied. "Normally, that thing isn't a thing you can see here but the false goddess summoned one and attached it to me during our fight. It sucked most of my magic and it will not stop until it drains all my mana. I'm desperate. I have made a promise. I need to stay alive until the beginning of the end," he said.
I didn't understand what he was saying about the beginning of the end but my main concern was the damage he would cause.
"Can we get rid of this thing?" I asked him.
"We can, but the thing that is needed to kill that is hidden in the cathedral," he replied.
"Is that why you want to destroy the city?"
"Yes!"
What he said made me think.
"If I help you find it, would you stop attacking the city?" I asked.
The dragon looked at me as if I was serious about what I said.
"There are knights guarding the Cathedral. You will never make it inside," he said.
"I'll try my best but while I help you, don't attack the city."
The dragon squinted his eyes and laughed as if he believed me.
"Sure, I'll give you enough time. But if you fail, I'll bring this city with me," he said and without any words, he turned his back on me and flew away.
The tornados vanished and I was safely landed on the ground.
"Red!! Are you okay? It seems that the Evil dragon has vanished! He'll be back again to attack," Diona, who ran towards me and checked if I had injuries, said worriedly. Even Wansai has been moving in circles trying to see if I was hurt.
"Yes," I said.

"What do we need to do? The dragon has been attacking us," Diona said, worried.
Suddenly someone appeared and he was with two more nights.
"You actually got the power to confront a dragon. Are you an ally or a new storm?" he asked.
"Vice Captain, you've come at the right time. We must-"
"Hold on, Diona. Are you perhaps forgetting to introduce us?" The man cut her off.
"Oh…right." she said and looked at me. "This is Ace, our division captain and vice captain of knighthood." And then she looked at Ace. "These two are travelers, Wansai and Red"
"Nice to meet you, captain," I greeted him.
But he was looking at me as if he was not sure that I'm a traveler.
"Uhm, long story short," and Diona narrated the reason why I decided to become a traveler and he must have understood it since he smiled at us. His hard as rock facial expression, if eyes could kill stance vanished.
"I see," he said. "Welcome to the Central- though you haven't arrived at the best times, I'm afraid. I understand the anguish of being separated from family. I'm not really sure why you're looking for the Anemo Goddess…but everyone has their secret, right. So you can relax. I won't press you for more," he said, placing his hand on my shoulders. "First and foremost on the behalf of the Knights, I would like to extend our thanks to your help just now."
"Well, we couldn't just leave the situation to fester," I said but I was also confused.
"Your fight to defend the city against the dragon just now was witnessed by no small number of citizens. The Master of knights is also very interested in meeting you and formally invites you both to out headquarters."
